Yes

Might hold on to him so.

Though pool scoring only 2 in their last 7 home games is quite a concern as a Salah owner.

Wasn't seeing much options so went AWB to Reguillon, risky that he'll start all the coming games but hoping he will in GW29

CSF

Looking for a Barnes replacement for GW27, 28 and 30 (may not even have to start in 28 as I'm pretty ok that week). No extra funds to use, so its players below 7 million that I'm stuck looking at.


I'm committed to FH in 29 and am very likely to wildcard in 31, so it is a really short term move (could honestly be a 2 game move if I felt like it)


I've kind of narrowed it down to being between Mount and Raphinha. 2 guys with lots of routes to points with set pieces etc. and both looking particularly good even from open play of late. Both guys with really good fixtures in GW30 too, and for such a short term punt you definitely feel extra inclined to attack the fixtures.


Mount 11/4 to score this weekend, and Raphinha 7/2, which is obviously a very simplistic way of looking at it. Mount 1.06 xG and 0.58 xA from the last 3, compared to Raphinha's 0.9 xG and 2.53 xA.


Anyone care to put some colour on those stats, or have any kind of extra feelings either way? I've to make the decision tonight with all Barnes, Raphinha and Mount's prices likely to move.

Mount has no game in 30 though. Lingard?

How Soon Is Now

I went with Lingard don't mind benching him next week as I have to decide who to bench this week between Bamford and Raphinha anyway.

At least I won't next week!

Gonna give Salah the game against Fulham and see how United and Bruno responded this week. I've noticed every time Bruno blanks two game weeks in a row he gets a big score so who knows!

You’re mixing up 29 and 30. I’m playing FH in 29 so that week isn’t a concern

Shedite27

My GW29 plan has left me with a strong squad for this weekend, who the hell do I bench from this lot

Cancelo DGW
Regulion CRY
Pereira (bha)
Digne (che) - bench

Kdb DGW
Gundog DGW
Son CRY
Lingard LEE
Bruno (mci) - bench

Bamford (whu)
DCL (che)
Watkins (WOL)

Am I mad benching Bruno?

Muahahaha

I went Barnes to Mount, theres not much between him and Raphina but I just think Chelsea are in a rich vein of form now whereas Leeds seem to blow hot and cold and West Ham isnt an easy place for them to go right now. I own Raphina but have benched him and Dallas for this GW as I feel West Ham can shut Leeds out.

Mount also has an edge on the chance of a clean sheet, 6 CS in 8 games now for Chelsea since Tuchel came in and Mount has played in 7 of those 8. I think he's in with a good chance of attacking returns v Everton and after that theyve got Leeds, more potential there. Then they blank but after that its West Brom. For a 2 or 3 week punt I think he fits the bill (*famous last words)

Which leads me to the question who should I bench Bamford or Raphinha?

In short, no. Already looking fatigued, City away, double v AC Milan, West Ham playing well and should be fresh, a blank and Leicester in the cup..........all in space of 15 days.

That’s a very very tough call.

I’d go for Raphinha but only just.

Chelsea have a few avenues to score goals and Mount may not always see the 90 minutes but they probably have the easier fixtures.

Raphinha is more likely to be involved if Leeds score. Leeds will spend 90 minutes, in every game, trying to score.

All just my random opinion.

I don’t think anyone can help you with this one. You’re going to have to go with your gut.

Already gone for Mount to avoid being priced out for it in a few minutes.

I went for mount. Watched one of their games recently and he was everywhere. Good enough for me, and an easy swap to Raphinha in 29.

But wary of all the -4 I am taking but I'm hoping it will work out. Been going well recently. Next plan is likely a -4 for Cancelo to Cresswell, and M Periera to a 29 asset. That would have me at 8 players for 29. One more -4 and I'll have 10 for 29. Honestly think the hit will be worth it to gain points that week, reckon many teams without FH will be seriously short.

Did you smash it

Should I take out Grealish for Son?
Dias for Stones?
Kane for one or Antonio, Ings or Bamford? Which one?

Grealish for Son surely., He's unlikely to play.

PhilipsR

I don’t think Grealish plays this side of the international break. Smith has been trying to play down the severity of the injury since it happened. Strange going’s on I feel.

Have a very similar team and benched both the Everton lads, if Utd do anything then Bruno will likely be involved

Benimar

I went Barnes to Raphinha. I just couldn’t bring Lingard in, he’s going to turn back into the real Jesse Lingard soon :pac:

but1er

I went Barnes to lucas moura, rested thrusday and played and scored week. Just trying to convenice myself it's a good move

CornettoQueen

Went for Barnes to Saka.

keane2097

I actually bought Ward Prowse just for the week in for Barnes. Going to get Grealish in next week or Maddison depending on injury status

Muahahaha

Yeah I hovered over Lingard for a bit but just couldnt bring myself to do it :pac: He'll probably make me regret that now

Nice call given JWP has scored a pen today and has a second game still to come

Just on this, with competition for places so high, Jack will want to play for England to cement his place in the team for the euros. When you look at the number of players England have, run of form of some players and/or injuries to others, no place is guaranteed.

He can be as eager as he wants but if he's injured enough he cant play.

Yea but Villa and Smith wont' want him going off and playing for England, so be interesting to see what happens - you'll understand both sides, one needs him to get Europe, the other needs to play to help make the euros.
