Trippier rises and Mendy falls one day after I make the transfer!

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Same. Hazard, Fraser, Maddison and AWB.Four of the six risers
If anything, the WC has really pushed my Team Value up.
5/6 risers
I can see Salah getting plenty of chances/counter-attacks against Chelsea, so not shipping him out. Chelsea could be grasping for a plan-b, when their pivot Jorginho gets pressed from all sides.
So I fecked up waiting to transfer Mendy, should I bother or wait and see...I can afford one more drop?
Also what's peoples thoughts of Ramsey > Maddison? I really like Maddison but just deciding who should leave for him. Current midfield is Hazard - D.Silva - L.Moura - Ramsey - Mane
Could give Ramsey another week.

Ramsey -> Maddison is a sideways transfer, if you ask me. Ramsey is playing in No 10 position and Arsenal have decent fixtures coming up. So don't see any real reason to spend a FT on him.
Want to get rid of Kante, hasn't done anything for me in a while.
Any 5.7 million midfielders worth a transfer in?

Seri is the only one I can think of. Fraser just went out of your reach.
I'm looking a taking a hit to get Richarlison back in this week. Could do it without one and swap for Maddison but I want to keep him too. I think he could go mad against a very open looking Fulham team at Goodison.

I am a new member I am writtig for the first time. My team looks like this:
Hennessey-Speroni
Bennet-Shaw-Robertson-AWB-Laporte
Hazard-Richarlison-Fraser-Mane-Sterling
Aguero-Mitrovic-Joselu
In the bank: 0.8
I don't have FT, because I used it for Laporte IN Mendy OUT.
After this weekend I have two options:
1. Sterling, Joselu OUT-Hudson Odoi, Kane IN
2. Sterling, Joselu OUT- Moura, Lacazette IN
Your thoughts?

I would just leave it as is for now really. Save up to 2 FTs, unless injuries or something like that happens. You have 5 nailed on, and good, defenders. Your midfield is really good, with all three of Chelsea, Liverpool and Shitty in the line up. Two very good striker options as well.
Kane scored this weekend, but looked the opposite of good. Why jump on him now, and take a -4 for it? Mouras spot is also unsure now that Son is back. I honestly don't see any benefit of shaking things up with a team like that. Not yet, at least.
You have so many different formations to play, and great rotation. Have you used your wildcard? If not, kudos!
I'm thinking of benching both TAA (A, Chelsea) and Alonso (H, Liverpool) this weekend, in favor of Bennett (H, Southampton) and Obi Wan Bissaka (A, Bournemouth). Yay or nay?
I can bench Fraser instead, to get either TAA or Alonso back in, but Fraser is playing Crystal Palace at home. Maybe he's started to cool down, but it's still less risk than playing TAA or Alonso, no?

TAA, maybe. Alonso, nope. He's so attacking that a clean sheet is just one of the reasons to have him starting. An assist or a goal is as likely for him as is for any other attacking Chelsea player except for Hazard. Who is your fifth defender?
The fifth defender is Shaw, away against West Ham.
I have this exact same issue. Won't drop Alonso, man is an assist machine.
TAA away to Chelsea probably should be dropped
Bennett playing at home so is tempting
Beastaka is a bonus points magnet and playing on a Monday so can give me something to look forward to...
not sure which one should come in...
So, my squad is like this
Foster-begovic
Boly-TAA-Tarkowski-Mawson-Cedric
Salah-Maddison-mane-Fraser-richarlison
Aguero-mitrovic-deeney
Thoughts? I just dumped Lukaku for Augero this week on FT
Next moves I’m considering swapping keeper for Hart as he’s doing well points wise and bringing in that young CPFC fullback wan bissaka

Bought Pogba last round and he did well but i got a feeling he wont start the next match after the last feud in training..
I would consider revamping the backline. The only player you have from the good teams is TAA. Imho you need at least two or three players from the top teams (Shitty, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, United) represented in the backline (including GK). Also, adding another good defender gives you more flexibility, as you are kind of bound to play 3-5-2 right now.
You have a very good team already. Wouldn't go for Moura as I think he'll get subbed more from now on that Son is back and Lamela has hit some goals lately.
Personally I think Sterling is great to have as long as he plays. He's consistent. I'd probably try and sub out Hazard/Mane+1 to get in Kane+1, if he's the one you want.
I'll probably spend way to much time thinking about this, make my final decision a minute before the deadline, and end up with 18 points on the bench. That's usually how it goes, at least.
Transferred out Mendy > Laporte and already thinking it was wasteful, Mendy will probably play at the weekend and I'll spend the next few weeks trying to get him back in!
Who says Mendy will play at the weekend?
I don't think he'll be back. But I'm putting him in my team just in case
It might not be a bad move anyway. Citey have the us, the scousers and Spurs in the next six, with UCL matches in between so a player like Mendy is a prime candidate to be rested. He's a bit of a defensive liability too, so could even be rotated with Delph to provide better defensive cover.
Drop Pogba or not....? Probably leave it upto the deadline to see if hes in the squad as its a early kickoff
I think I need to get Hazard in my team.
Erikson and Groß out, Hazard and Fraser in.
Edit: wtf? In the time it took me to post this, they both went up by £0.1M
I hate this game!

Is it worth the risk to captain Salah when I have Aguero in my team? Thinking 99% of my league will captain Kun and I need a differential!

Can't even be arsed watching risers and fallers now. Too much going on.
Has it always been like this?

I believe acting on the prices gave me a good advantage last year which just made me win my league..
But it is as if the players rise really early this year, so you have to act even before a gameweek has ended, which is a bit annoying and throws me off a bit.
I'm on 102.5 worth at the mo, so have some advantage. I'd have to be taking hits to get the most of out changes now and I said I wouldn't do that much this year, as it's cost me in the past.
Ah yea, same conundrum I'm in.. Yet I've done it, but mostly because players like Mendy would have had to be subbed anyways. Or Tosun is not a sure-starter.
I've subbed way too much this year due to taking too much chance on United-defence in the beginning (who didnt play)
Also I spent way too much free-time last year on FPL - so decided to just get it over early in the week with my subs so I don't speculate too much.
Yeah Aguero for me too. Don't have Salah anyway so not an option for me. Thinking of getting him in after the City game depending on how Mane/Hazard/Dilva do over the next few. Team for the weekend is...
Patricio
Alonso - Robertson - Trippier
Hazard - Mane - Richarlison - Dilva
Wilson - Mitrovic (vc) - Aguero (c)
Subs: Foster - Fraser - Bennett - AWB
Ya'll get ready to suffer. Choo choo train is coming. It's time.
Go with Salah! Need to think outside the box and take a risk
It is a long season,why take the risk? Salah has a much tougher fixture than Aguero.
I have Aguero as captain but i am tempted to captain Kane since his numbers are improving and he also have a good fixture.
Having Aguero as a captain is a problem when Pep starts taking him off around the hour mark.
