Start Bruno G because he'll probably be suspended next GW, but should get DEFCON and an attacking return 🤣

Play Bruno G (MAN A) or Enzo (AVL H)

Currently benching Enzo but only just changed to that and am not convinced it's the right way to go.

Play Bruno for DEFCON and maybe attacking contribution 🤷‍♂️ (MU haven't kept a CS since before my memory went somewhere 🥴)

I'm not convinced by AB or Chelsea and absolutely no idea what's going together happen there.

Thx

Planning to get rid of Enzo but not sure who I fancy in their spot so going to kick that one down the road a couple of GWs (FH next week).

Mount without Bruno is kinda interesting, but could break any day, even if he has no game 🤷‍♂️

Both tough, but I would go for the home player , if that helps.

Yep it's tough but I prefer Rogers.

AI is recommending I bench him but it really doesn't seem to like him (it wanted me to bench him last week as well :lol: )...

Cheers. Would be great if he got another assist as I'm only going with 2 Ars for the Double.

Rice
May defcon and get his 4 or 5 but I’d take the upside on Rogers personally

Funny one bc I plan to bring in Rogers next week vs wolves and have considered whether to drop rice for Rogers this week bc when Leeds is involved both teams tend to score

Thanks for this, although I've had Rice on the bench since yesterday, I'm still very undecided on which one to play.

It feels like whoever I end up benching will definitely haul this weekend...

I know exactly how you feel

Derby match feels like kind of a rice kind of match but I feel just like you do - whoever I leave out will haul haha.

Tottenham apparently trained with only 13 players. Their injury list right now probably finishes higher than their starting XI

Kelleher I reckon. Wolves have only scored five goals away from home this season and Brentford have the third best odds of keeping a clean sheet this week.
