It’s hard not to go for immediate points and instead think long term. So I went Bruno to Cunha and Petrovic to Pickford. Been having a goalie headache since the start of the season. Think Pickford has like 10 good straight games. No worries.

Raziel
Noticed I am not even playing him yet.
Raziel
Would be hilarious if Dub got clean sheet and penalty stop.
Raziel
Thoughts behind playing Anderson is that WHU concede most through corners and free kicks. Next to a Cs there could be a possible goal for Andersen. We’ll see.
Raziel
These are Pickfords and Evertons next fixtures, and the list actually continues with good fixtures. Won’t be going double up on defense but think I’ll keep this goalie for a while. Even though I can’t stand him as a goalie. Hahaha.

Pickford is expensive at 5.5.
Have you looked at Sanchez and save 0.6?
Chelsea run is pretty good, especially from 22 onwards
Raziel
I understand bundeena, but transfer already made. Looked at the future and wanted one goalie and not of a top team like Arsenal.
I already gathered a lot of money with my teams, think twice as much as most. Selling value is 103m. So I feel can go all out on a goalie. An Everton defender would have made more sense for sure though.
Shrivathsa
I have a similar goalie headache between Petrovic and Areola, both can’t seem to cross 2 points.
Terminators
I would just drop them both (I did Petrovic > Roefs) and then Dúbravka.
Raziel
Roefs was another cheaper alternative… But he has harder fixtures and I already own Mukiele. But not a bad shout.
Shrivathsa
Already took a hit for the week so next week Petrovic goes. Areola I am hoping for a CS and a few saves and a few 8 pointers for a few weeks (Christmas Gift from West Ham, hopefully of 3 or 4 CS in a row) as they have Fulham, Brighton, Wolves and Forest. My guess is that they will concede 1/2 in the first half and fight back to draw.
Rogueblood
Hope everyone had a lively xmas, going to BB this week 3ft and 2.2ITB what changes would you make?

Thiago > Bowen
It depends on if you want to keep Saka? He could and can just pop-up and score a few goals in a single game but it is difficult also having Rice, I had this issue where I had to play them both every GW thus having to bench one of the other playing Mid/Fwd players.
Many now Bruno.F is out are going for Cunha and also Gordon is very viable with the coming fixtures, so Saka for one of those, maybe one of your other Mid’s for the other? or upgrading Rodon to O’Reilly.
Rogueblood
Cheers fella been debating Saka out for a while now so may actually pull the trigger now
Shrivathsa
Would you have Money to do Saka to Foden / Cunha, Wilson to Cherki / Rogers and Verbruggen to Raya / Donnarumma / Alisson . If you are going Foden then maybe WIison to Cunha and Minteh to Cherki. In that case Verbruggen remains
Rogueblood
I could do foden, cheki & cunha that leaves me with 0.5 was also tempted with Bowen, Cunha & Gordon
Terminators
You only need either Foden or Cheki really otherwise you are forced into playing both of them every GW.
I think you can get away with holding until after the GW starts then do 4FT’s and do Saka > Bowen, Cunha & Gordon.
ODT
Let it ride or Saka>Cunha? Or perhaps y’all see something else.

Terminators
Should be okay for this GW, but if you are wanting Saka out then if may be worth doing it now, depending on if you think Cunha will score more points than Saka this GW.
ODT
Thank you. It’s a gamble for sure. Either one could go off.
IvanTheTerrible
Going around circles all day with this wildcard…….
Any last minute amendments needed?

Terminators
Looks good, I would downgrade Raya and upgrade Thiago to Bowen though if it were my team.
IvanTheTerrible
Thanks T but staying away from WHU for now.
Reg83
Lot of trust in Liverpool. But suppose against wolves will be worth it.
Raziel
Am I set? Bench right order?

Raziel
Sorry this one. Had two ft’s and did boring movies. Got Pickford and Cunha.

Good to go.

I made a last minute change, Chalobah > Bruno.G.
Reg83
