Yeh, you'd have been out of your mind to have considered picking Keegan when he progressed to the top division.
The pedant in me insisted I put "Prem".
Sigh! Still have the programme somewhere of a Newport vs Scunthorpe fixture from back in the day, where the Scunthorpe line up included both Keegan and Clemence :shock:

Ian Botham played for Scunthorpe and he was one of the greatest ever. :mrgreen:

Toney blanked yesterday in what you can expect to be a typical PL game for him.

I'm not sold on Toney at all.

But he fills a niche price point.

The Watkins to Ings +£0.5m has made things difficult.

Che Adams for £7.0 could solve that

He does miss a shocking number of good chances though, surely Southampton will bring in a better striker?

I also had this guy in my team but I've replaced him with Rodrigo for the same price. Happy to be corrected (by PB, for one), but will he not play #10 behind/with Bamford? He did really well at the end of last season and I can imagine (hope?) he will continue doing so.

Hard to say. It will be Dallas in CM with one of Klich or Rodrigo. Klich gives us more solidity as he's a proper central midfielder, whereas Rodrigo is more of a forward. It depends on Bielsa's approach and it may change game to game. Bottom line: Rodrigo is probably first-choice at the minute, but he's far from nailed.

He was obviously still trying to find his way out of Tarkowski's pocket today.

Yep, that is another way of stating the subject of this thread. Thanks for the insight.
