If PB is ruled out

I should be fine for the weekend.

Highly evolved no doubt

[From4corners]

KDB Sarr.

Fundraising

I'm actually tempted to keep KDB and get Sarr for Greenwood. Adding Foden into the mix soon and riding triple Man City midfield...

[wahine]

I like that
I'm turning Pogba into Foden hopefully soon

[Sutter Kane]

It feels dirty that I'm hoping Bamford is unavailable so I can change him to Antonio. This probably tells me all I need to know.

If Leeds are suffering second season syndrome, Bamford is probably not an option at his price, regardless of fixtures.

[AJD]

Still riding without Ronaldo which hasn’t felt too bad until this week.

Would take a -4 to get him in. Something like Ings/Bamford and Greenwood to Sissoko and Ronaldo. Not super keen but Ronaldo is the obvious captain this week.

The alternative is Ings/Bamford to Antonio.

Or sit on my hands for 2 FTs next week to get Lukaku and 1 other in

The next few GWs will be a good indicator, also their injured and suspended should be back?

looks like you have your wish...

Marcelo Bielsa: "Llorente, Koch and Bamford won't be available. And the rest of them I couldn't tell you if they will be or if they won't be."

guess i'll be keeping jimi then, and doing bam to antonio

Sutter to redeem yourself you should bring in Cresswell (Leeds) at 4m as well.

[Blue Fire]

Bamford, Bruno Ronaldo, ?? (8.9m) for a -4. Would have gone for Lukaku if he didn't have City this week. As it stands, Ronaldo will be in my team till GW8.

Need two of Trent, Ayling, Digne and Bissouma to play to field a full XI. Will probably WC if this doesn't look likely, but the lack of mid priced options in midfield is holding me back.

Straight after a WC, getting Antonio back in is not ideal but it's the least of evils right now.

Cresswell is tempting but it's just about a no from me.

[thekitkatshuffler]

Starting to think about...

Bamford Saint Max
Marcal Alonso


Would cost the exact money though, so a tense wait to see if I can hold until after the deadline without price fluctuations knackering things, instead of taking a 4pt hit to do it this week.

Would wait, looks a little bit Knee Jerk your risking Alonso vs City (maybe bench/no CS ) when Marcal plays Sou.
Why did you bring in Marcal in The first place? Just for 1 game?

Yeah, I thought the same thing very shortly after posting that.

I'm still planning those transfers but only Saint Max this week, with Bamford being out injured.

Marcal was a bit of a punt, so if I've got the money to swap him for a Chelsea defender as they hit their run of brilliant fixtures next week, that's probably the sensible option.

TAA, Jota and Scarlett out

Antonio, Sarr and Rudiger in

-8

Madness ?

Bamford -> Vardy
Torres -> Gallagher or Gray

for -4

makes sense, right?

Depends on the rest of the squad. You're gaining one player but if it is to strengthen the bench, I don't think a -8 is worth it.

They will all be 1st 11 and I

Tempted to just bench Bam this week rather than use a transfer, their fixtures are fantastic apart from this week (so was not expecting much anyway)
Is there any hint it might be a longer than one week issue?

I've quickly come to a similar conclusion because I'm not sure which striker option is the one to sell Bamford for to begin with. ASM is an FPL troll and Jimenez has yet to deliver any returns this season so it looks like the best bet (for me) is to holding off on the decision of what to do with Bamford and just make a move like Ayling Rudiger instead. It's a move I know I'll make eventually so carries low risk of backfiring plus Chelsea could quite feasibly keep a CS against City given that both Spurs and Southampton were able to. It also sets me up for triple Chelsea come GW8 and gives me an extra week to assess players like ASM and Jiminez.

I'm increasingly liking the Bam to Eduoard move.....

[TheBigLewandowski]

Worth doing Raphinha > Benrahma, or just start Raph in the hope he plays, with Duffy an able deputy as 1st sub just in case? Argh...

I think Bamford ASM is objectively better.

I think that the use of the word think means it's subjective

ASM could well have more Ass potential, but the Skunks have looked poor, while Eddie has Zaha and Gallagher loading his proverbial pistol.

Subjectively it isn't, and is who I had before BamBam - I'm not sure the EL and fragility go together.

Bamford Wood

I really don't want to keep having to change my 3rd striker spot about so hopefully he can stay in for more than one week.

I've called ASM an FPL troll and "Saint-Minimum" on here before

I agree with the second part of the definition ie free from bias and factual.

I wanted to wait a GW and give BamBam time, but he could be out a while; but I am tempted to jump now. I still think that the reasoning in bold wins, and Eddie should rise with a goal, or three, this GW?

Looking at your team I don't see why you haven't already done Bamford Antonio tbh. By getting Edouard instead you're not only saying that you expect him to do well but that you expect him to outscore Antonio which I'd happily back against. Unless the extra cash would be used elsewhere?

Yes to cash, and I'm looking further ahead than 1 GW, by which time Antonio will be injured (or so I hope).
