So he's not playing again this weekend confirmed and got a warning for being late to boot. Feel better about making the switch last week.

I will be looking to get him back in probably at the expense of PVA. My 1 concern is Sane as Pep mentioned something about them not really being able to play together as they both look to get forward and whip in crosses.

I’d like him to be injured for another couple of weeks until I’m ready to shuffle my pack a bit! Not really looking to reverse out the change I made to Mitro, I’m short of cash for upgrades in most teams and low on ideas....

This was gone into in FPL-land ad nauseum and seems to be pretty much a myth perpetuated by posts like that

Surprised this one is rumbling on. I only had the poll open for 48 hours. Why have people held on this long? Makes no sense to me.

Because people are running out of time to sell him as he might be back on sunday.

"Manchester City pair Kevin De Bruyne and Benjamin Mendy both returned to training this week and could feature. "

By the time they play Palace away on 10 Nov, they'll have played 4 home and 8 away. Should set them up for a decent second half of the season.

Yep, but I'll wait a few matches for his return when they only have your lot away from the Top 6 in 13 matches.

And there was me thinking the international break meant at least I was free of fantasy disappointment for a week....Knee ligament op sounds like a transfer

Soon as in "the Brexit deal will all be finalised soon".
OK in FF terms I am concluding that soon = not soon enough to even consider keeping him

A definite sell if he ain't fit until Dec 2020?

This will be my second time selling. There will not be a third. He seems like a liability to me and spends most of his time posting crap on social media. With 4 of my players currently showing up injured it should be pretty easy to shoe horn Sterling in.

Oh to Mendy (is that close enough to Otamendi?) but Laporte for me.

Last 10 games Shaqiri has 6 assists and 2 goals. Not always about the minutes on the pitch but what you do when you're actually on it. If it was just about minutes on the pitch then people would be all over Fernandinho. I also think that with those stats he'll start more often than not.

Liverpool have had two of their key midfielders out during most of Shaqiri's good spell. They (Henderson and Keita) are pretty much back I think (or did I hear something about Henderson having to drop out of England team???)

Am I totally nuts for considering a swap to Felipe Anderson?
After this weekend's game against Man City, West Ham's next 8 fixtures look like this...
Newcastle (a)
Cardiff (H)
Crystal Palace (H)
Fulham (a)
Watford (H)
Southampton (a)
Burnley (a)
Brighton (H)

Spotted that run a couple of weeks ago and put Arnie in. Anderson is cheaper and potentially better VFM certainly racking up some points currently. He’ll be coming in for my Shaws this w/e.

I think I’m going Gomez for Mendy. But think I’ll do Maddison to Anderson too after City game. Unless Maddison pulls his socks up this week, then I’ll be all confused.
