Re: Egg Premier League 2018/19
Must admit, I'd not noticed the early deadline but I guess if they don't make it, there should be some sort of penalty?
Quite an advantage having knowledge of all the deadline day transfers before making your two free transfers.

Reason... season long Kane - hopefully he decides to start playing from August this year.
I'll look for value across Citeh back line later, I wondering if stones may cement his place this years.

Re: Egg Premier League 2018/19
I'm quite liking the Maldini (echoed by sjr) idea of getting Kane in early, and the Coady move seems to be the only sensible way to do it. Any other ploys are going to be about freeing up cash for a later Kane entrance. They all seem clumsy, and potentially damaging to Sanchez or Aguero. I don't like to duplicate others, though, so will continue to look for other sensible options. If I find none, though....

Decided to make a hybrid move, at least allowing a relatively pain-free switch to Kane when required. I apparently have developed a slight hop in my step as a result of having two Southampton players in my starting team. It's a bit of a toss-up whether Kane will get in before Austin gets crocked. Much prefer starting with 4-4-2, but two Wolves defenders? Oh well...

"The Company Of Wolves" (Quite a good book if I remember it right, didn't it win the Booker prize or Costa prize or something??).......
Tried to briefly keep DSanchez just in case he started the lunchtime game (unlikely?) but couldn't figure a way of doing it so he goes for an enabler. From Wolves but ex of Liverpool (and was I think the first Englishman to lift a major trophy since Bobby Moore. Captain at the U17 World Cup or some such). Don't want Ozil long term and he doesn't play til the last game so was an easy one to ditch. Another Wolves enabler comes in, allegedly Jota is an oopsie mate of Spiny's too. They better start well as there are now 3 Wolves in this team Is that enough for a company?

Ozil needs an extended holiday following his exertions in Russia... Richarlison will play in front three, and started like a train last season.
Not as convinced as others about how well Wolves will fare in the top flight.

4-5-1 4-4-2
Transfers Remaining: 40
Value: 49.7 48.4
Reason for Transfer(s):
Last year the decision was which one or two to leave in, this year is the complete opposite, and the team could easily have been left untouched.
Arsenal have a tough start, and I'm not comfortable to begin with a 4-5-1, so Ozil is replaced by a striker.
I am hoping Gray gets more game time this season, but at least he provides a differential, and also frees up funds.
I would have liked to see El Younoussi play, but however good he might turn out to be, at that sort of price Jota seems a much better option.
(I understand the reasoning, but I still curse these early transfer deadlines. Still, I made it with over 100 minutes to spare. )
