Currently £0.1m short but if Werner drops as expected it is just within budget
I have 1.5m in the bank for Doherty to Trent for GW4 if Liverpool look solid again. I'm not giving up on Havertz & Werner. They get joked about on the internet but most people didn't watch their link up play along with Mount. The only problem was Werner's finishing and that is not new at all. He has always been that way. Pulisic and Ziyech are due back soon as well. This lot are going to get goals.
Don’t forget to save the difference though or you’ll not be able to afford Trent

Re: GW3 Wildcard
So the big decisions for me now are:
Martinez or Ryan - the former is the better keeper but I feel the latter plays behind the better defence...
JRod and Burke or Foden and Podence - JRod looking sharp but then again so are Foden and Pedence. Only problem is that the latter at more of a rotation risk but in a post-covid world may be more sensible to have (Burke just being bench fodder)...
Mitrovic or Wood - third choice striker - the latter the better forward IMO and less likely to see red but the former has the slightly better fixtures up to GW10...
Hmmmm......

Re: GW3 Wildcard
After some tinkering i'm on this
Martinez/Steer
TAA/Saiss/James/Lamptey/C.Taylor
Salah/KDB/Foden/Podence/Burke
Jesus/Jimenez/DCL
Pretty happy with this. Main focus is to target City attack and Wolves fixtures whilst keeping in the ever reliables for Liverpool. The rest filled with solid/in form players. Slightly concerned with no Werner...but feel like I would be purely keeping him for the West Brom game. Feel likeI trust Jesus/City more in the next few.
Foden/Podence/James slightly rotation risks long term but that's why i've gone for somre reliable bench cover in Lamptey & Taylor. Burke or Aguissa for the 4.5m slot...Burke seems worth a punt if playing up top now and again.
Thoughts?

Re: GW3 Wildcard
Don't fancy having the £4.5m 3rd forward option tbh - will all the potential rotation / covid shitstorm that could happen I want to have players on the bench that have the potential to come on for more than just 2 points if possible. With the numerous mid priced forward options (and so few premium forward options that are captain material when you also have the premium mids) I think this is possible - just one premium defence and no premium forwards with a chunky middle!
Have Lamptey as well which as you say may sway me to Martinez but then again if you are happy the defence is stronger why not go for double gains?
Do we think Steer has jumped ahead of Nyland now as AVL no. 2? Nyland played in the Carabao Cup?

Re: GW3 Wildcard
I can't argue against that tbh, I really don't think there's much between most of the 4.5 keepers. Martinez I just know is a great keeper and will get saves, VIlla looked better defensively since restart but stll I don't expect many clean sheets. Think I just prefer to have a mix rather than a double up. But then again if Lamptey is on my bench, I could miss them clean sheets. Skip the next few GWs and Villas fixtures look pretty good GW6-GW15. Not sure on the Nyland/Steer situation, Steer was on the bench the other day.thebillfella wrote: ↑24 Sep 2020, 11:44 Don't fancy having the £4.5m 3rd forward option tbh - will all the potential rotation / covid shitstorm that could happen I want to have players on the bench that have the potential to come on for more than just 2 points if possible.

What happens if you have made 2 transfers in a given week for a hit and then decide you want to use your WC in that week ?
Does that wipe off the hit ?

Re: GW3 Wildcard
This is the draft I keep coming back to:
Martinez(Forster)
Robbo James Lamptey(Mitchell Dunne)
Salah Kdb Son Foden Podence
Jesus Jimenez(4.5)
Not happy with the bench so will look to upgrade the defence with future subs.

Re: GW3 Wildcard
Horrendous start !
Having to play wildcard way too early but hey ho no point playing it when season has gone
My current draft which been tinkering with all week is :
Ryan ; Steer
TAA ; Lamptey ; Taylor ; Mitchell ; Chilwell (notice few are going for him as he’s 5.5 but seems like he’s fit and could be a good differential assists wise)
KDB ; Salah ; Son ; Foden ; Anguissa
Werner ; Wood ; Bamford
Been changing my mind all week but going to go with this now and try and stop thinking about it for a few hours.
Obviously any feedback might make me rethink !!

Re: GW3 Wildcard
Wow. That is scary. Almost the same 15 as yours truly (not sure if great minds think alike or should serve as a warning to you to change it up immediately!!)
Only differences are my two keepers are as yet undecided and I have Saiss + 4.5 (Lamptey/KWP/Taylor) instead of Vinagre and James.
I'm also debating finding cash for Mitro to Wood atm.
In short I reckon 10/10 lol
