Is he even fit? It may be a non-choice
I've just posted that on your RMT re Robertson over Alonso :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm currently benching Ings over Robbo, Alonso, W-B and Wilson - having just swapped Ings and Wilson.

How crazy is it benching Salah for Neves?

Asking for a friend.

I dropped Salah from my squad and told him he'd never be captain again. I'm already looking for a way to reconsider, it's scary watching Salah play when you don't have him

Selling and benching aren't the same though - assuming the money was spent kinda wisely?

After much deliberation...
Peltier :arrow: R. Bennett (who I am starting as Wolves have looked strong at home?)

Benching R.Pereira and VvD in that order

Blimey - probably had to be Wally I agree, but annoying with that fixture.
How’s your bench, could it be a BB opportunity?
Hamer, AWB, Mendy, so would have to take a hit for BB

Here's a tricky one. AWB or Doherty. Wolves underlying defensive numbers are strong but Palace and AWBonus are at home.

CPL haven't scored at home all season, that might help sway your decision.

All the same: Robertson v MCI, WBA, or Chilwell v Everton? All three players are at home.

and since I got my keepers the wrong way around two weeks running missing out on 19 points (!): Patricio (cpa) or Hart (HUD)?

Hmm... play 3 of Doherty, Robertson, Hughes, Fraser and Ings.

I’ve already committed to 2 CPL defs (AWB and Tomkins).

I’m currently fielding Doherty (better fixture in theory than Robertson so chance of CS, attacking potential against an in theory weaker side, form), Hughes (fixture) and Ings (striker, penalties, everything goes to him, desire to push LPL cause v Chelsea - far fetched, but he’s a “heart” player). I don’t feel comfortable dropping Robertson though, I guess it’s Hughes v Robertson. Thoughts? Cheers.

It strikes me that few are benching Fraser. Maybe it’s the last two gw’s but he’s the main supplier of very decent attacking team. Would rarher bench Ings, Bennet or AWB before him.

Bench one of Fraser, Ings or Dilva?

Benched Fraser at the moment, but tempted by Dilva, especially as he is not guaranteed to start.

Expect Ings to be on penalties, and always hesitant to bench a penalty taker.

I think I would bench Ings.


Who should I bench of Wan-Bissaka vs. WOL (H) and Steve Cook vs. WAT (A)? Keep in mind I also have Hennessey who's starting!

Massively struggling to decide who to play/bench before 7pm. HELP!

Decent OR to protect.

Here's my team in full as it stands. Please let me know what you think. Can't decide between W-B, Mendy, Bennett and Fraser:

Ederson
Robertson, Mendy, Alonso, W-B
Richarlison, Hazard (vc), Lamela
Kane (c), Aguero, Mitro

subs: Hamer / Fraser, Bennett, Schneiderlin

Hamer and Schneiderlin are the only 2 I'm certain on!!
