Nvm. Found one. Yeah Kane is likely to drop. Gonna bring in Lukaku for him.
When I have 2 FTs I'll take out Pogba and Mitrovic to bring in Kane so I can have Aguero, Lukaku and Kane as a front 3.

A lot of people are big on value.
I wonder how they do it sometimes, as they'll have similar points to me, yet already be 1.5m up
Are you sure it's worth that sort of surgery to do it?
At 11m, and for a striker who for us I think has only scored more than 1 in the league twice, does he have the hauls in him?
Is Ings only on loan? Think I slightly overlooked that, although I only brought him in as a makeweight to get Hazard in without losing Salah!
Yeah I didn't bother doing all that. Just did Kane out and Lukaku in. I'll bring Kane back in next round though if/when his price drops as it looks likely to. I'll have to take a points hit then but it will be worth it.
Kane just way too expensive this year.
Salah still has the jury out, but may be a similar boat. Will Mane keep outscoring him is the big question, and is he as reliable a captain choice? Not sure on either.
Roll on champions league to disrupt them either way!
Zabaleta hardly ever plays, don't ask me how I ended up with him, so I was looking forward to Tomkins getting promoted into the team. Guess what, he is playing today. West Ham will probably concede a hatfull by the end of the game.
The cnut got a yellow card too

I've done the same and should have trusted my gut by doing it on the wildcard for this week.
First benching dilemma will be Fraser or Pedro? Not to mention whether to start AWB who looks like a bit of a bonus magnet when Palace keep a clean sheet.
Squad looks very strong for next week before Chelsea play Liverpool and might be looking at the first tricky gw.
Tosun and Fabianski, complete shite.
Arnie saved my week..... Kinda .
I'd rather have mane to be fair
Am I right in thinking, people transfer players out when their price rises to increase their balance? Is this an actual tactic
This guy thinks it's a joke..
84 pts. Had Wan Bissaka replacing Mendy so i'm happy.
2 FT for next week...
need advice
Fabianski-Foster
Boly-Tomkins-Bissaka-Mendy-Connoly
-Hazard-Salah-Jota-Guedenzoui-Pedro
King-Firminho-Aguero
Out Pedro In Richarlision
any other easy switch?

feck salah off
I’m getting rid of Fabianski. West Ham have awful fixtures and he’s going to drop in price.
75k have already dumped Salah for Hazard this weekend.
Another bloody 20 points lost as I couldn't be arsed to scroll down and press 'confirm changes' even though I'd made them. Frustrating. Should've been a notification asking 'do you want to confirm changes?'or something that pops out automatically. As for the potential transfers, it's a bit frustrating this coming gameweek. All of the players I want out are having an easy ride for a few games whereas the potential high-flyers I'm about to sign are bound to have a bastard of fixtures ahead of them.
Not my season so far, even though on paper the team looks solid.

Salah turning into a bit of a differential at this rate, I'm seriously considering captaining next week
48% of teams isn’t much of a differential. I’d want a 13m player to be a nailed on captain but having to think about it says it all really.

Time to dump Walcott before another price drop? Any suggestions? I'll get 6.6m from him & have 1.5 in the bank too.
Hazard is still the differential at the moment, judging off my main mini league.
Even if Salah scores a brace next week and Hazard blanks, Hazard owners have done better.
So the big question is...Next week - Hazard captain because obviously in form, or Aguero captain because he's playing the team Hazard tripled up on? 
Assuming he's even fit of course.

Already have Lucas & can't trust Maddison or Pedro (already transferred him out) to deliver. Can't afford Silva either. Richarlison looks the best option as he was very good before his suspension i suppose but their fixtures can be tricky in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the advice though.
Wilson or King? I have a feeling if Zaha doesn't do well against Newcastle I'm gonna feck him off.
I've had him in since the beginning and despite scoring 3 goals he isn't even hit close to double figures or getting all 3 BP.

Salah Out, Hazard In was a very logical move LAST week.
This week it seems stupid to me with Salah at home to Saints. He's going to get a 20pt haul sooner or later. Also have to remember that Westham play Chelsea next and got a good win today so they will go into that game with more confidence now.
I wildcarded this week and took Mane out for hazard rather than Salah. Worked well too.

He's like Salah in that respect. He's the focal point of his team and attempts loads of shots and dribbles. When they don't come off (which most of the time they won't) it pushes them out of the bonus points.
I generally try and play with a good bench, but 87 points in 5 games is ridiculous.
I need to get someone in for Tosun. Just sold Bernardo Silva and got James Maddison back which earned me another £0.9m, I am sitting on £3.6m in the bank and will get £6.9m for Tosun but £10.5m still does not get me an elite striker. I will gladly take a 4-point hit.
My team now:
Patricio - Mendy, Robertson, Alonso, TAA - Maddison, Hazard, Salah, Moura - Mitrovic, Tosun. Bench: Wan-Bissaka, Masuaku, Kamara.
I need to somehow use the £3.6m but have no idea how right now. All the forwards below £11m are unknown quality. I would take Lukaku but have no idea how to generate £0.5m extra without selling Salah (though it is very tempting to exchange Salah for Mane at this point). I do intend to keep Salah for 4-5 more games at least though.

Swap Robertson for Shaw and get in Aguero when he is fit
That would cost me 8 points so I would need to stage that through two weekends. I like the idea about Robertson for Shaw though, as long as Shaw is healthy he should be playing pretty much every game this season.
I think I prefer Lukaku over Aguero this season though.
Screw points, I am going to make it back anyway. Shaw and Lukaku in for Robertson and Tosun.
Mourinho said post match that Shaw will start midweek and we can't handle the season with just one LB. It's possible he will rotate with Young.
Had a real shiter.
I thought I'd try and be clever and captain Alonso...did not work out. Midfield didn't perform either therefore I've wild carded, I've gone balls deep and ditched Salah freeing up some funds. This is what I'm working with now and I feel it's more rounded:
-----------Hennessey----------
Mendy -----Alonso -------Holebas
Hazard - Moura - Mané - Fraser
Zaha ------ Aguero ----Mitrovic
Subs: Boruc, Wan Bissaka, Shaw, Richarlison.
Reckon I might sub on Richarlison or Wan Bissaka but we'll see.

Yeah but Lukaku over Tosun will give me many points to be able to offset Shaw maybe not playing sometimes. Young will definitely get games but Shaw should be first choice.
My team seems to be looking weaker as the weeks go by but ive already used my wildcard.
The Auba / Mkhi combo has not really worked out yet.
The midfield of Hazard, Mkhi, Gray, Walcott, Neves needs addressing.
Will Aguero start to get rested ?
Its all looking a little dodgy.
I have 2.8m in the bank after getting ridding of Salah for Hazard in the previous week and really considering getting rid of Ings and Walcott for Vardy and Fraser.
Leicester and Bournemouth have a nice run of games so Vardy does appeal but it costs me 4 points and does not address the Auba / Mkhi issue and would love to get Lukaku in there somewhere as he might go on one of this rolls.
Not having a Liverpool player is also worrying lol

Unfortunately captained Aguero over Hazard and had Fraser on the bench this weekend which has probably cost me a top 250 overall position, however 65 for the GW has resulted in green arrows all around so far!
