Yip. I was going for Aguero and Son anyway, this just means everyone else will also though.

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.

Luckily I didn't pull the trigger on Kane. Not sure how serious his injury will turn out to be but Son is 100% the guy to go for against Huddersfield as he'll play up top and probably rip them a new one.
Might also bring in Trips for that clean sheet.

People saying Son's injured too...
Bilva down as 75% now too 
Dunno what do about him because I don't need him for this gw as my bench is quality ready for BB, but I obviously want 15 players fit for the dgw

Thinking Lacazette in for Kane
I think I will give Lloris the armband for the weekend. They will likely try to go for 1-0 or 2-0, Huddersfield are crap offensively and terrible away from home so this should be guaranteed 12 points. I don’t want another 4-point weekend from my captain and I can’t trust any of my forwards or midfielders to score.
I would go with Son but they might try going with Lucas Moura and Llorente.

Surely Vardy is a better shout...?
I don’t have Vardy.
Can't find that. Hope its not true as I already did the transfer after anticipating his price going up
A keeper got very little potential as a captain. I think Lukaku and Vardy could be the best picks. Vardy got insane form right now under Brendan Rodgers. If Lukaku is not playing tonight he will for sure play against West Ham. Martial and Rashford might work out well too, but I would worry about Rashfords fitness right now.
I think Everton could do some damage against Fulham. Richarlison or Sigurdsson could do really well as your captain. Maybe even Digne could get a big haul.
I would probably avoid City players due to both rotation and a hard away game. Arsenals away form is crap too so would not captain anyone from them.
Eriksen could be a safe pick too since he should start no doubt. Although you have Son so I am sure you don't have Eriksen too. I guess you got Liverpool and Chelsea players too that you will avoid as well.
Did the same. Kane + Tielemans > Lacazette + Son.
Only problem is that Son may be rested on the weekend since it's Huddersfield. Gonna keep an eye out tomorrow and I am pretty sure I will be making more changes before the deadline. fecking Kane.
I don't mind if he's rested this week. My bench is ridiculous in prep for BB dgw
My team is:
Lloris / Speroni
Wan-Bissaka / Lindelöf / Laporte / Dunk / Clyne
Mane / Son / McNeil / Pogba / Sterling
Aguero / Wilson / Madine
I sacrificed one spot for Madine to open up funds in other positions. I am also going to downgrade Clyne to the cheapest defender available and run a 12-man rotation in the final weeks.
I sold Azpi for Dunk today. Chelsea fixture list is brutal for a defender and I can use £1.9m. I’m doing paid transfers now but we’ve all agreed in our league that all of us will drop 16 points on paid transfers this week to make it more fun. I could still do 1-2 more transfers. Was thinking about Wilson and Mane to Eriksen and Vardy but it could go either way.
I am mad to think about tripling up on Brighton defence and taking a -8 hit?
My thoughts are that in reality it is only a -2 hit if they all play and do nothing, no clean sheet and don't get hammered.
Taken out 3 players with single gameweeks, which in the same scenario would score me 6 points...if my three brighton players come in and all play both, 12 points.

Who's on your bench? Are they good enough for GW34, in case Son gets rested?
Shuffled my pack around due to Kane's injury and I am currently on this for the next 2 GWs at least with 0.4 ITB:
Ryan
Robertson Digne Dunk
Eriksen Son Sterling Mane
Deeney Vardy Jimenez
Gunn TAA Fraser Bennett
As a BB35 team, I am satisfied with it (Probably bring in a Watford defender in place of Digne). As a GW34 team, I am not sure given the rotations and all that may come into picture.Robertson Digne Dunk
Eriksen Son Sterling Mane
Deeney Vardy Jimenez
Gunn TAA Fraser Bennett
Not as simple as that. What if you get 12 from your Brighton boys but one of the defenders you drop gets a good score? Then you've wasted points.
Doucoure Deeney Robertson!
Only reason Robertson isn't in is because Dunk and Duffy have a double, Trippier is playing Huddersfield and Laporte has been doing well.
I'll probably change Robertson for Kolasinac anyway.
Someone will probably be injured and feck up my new template, but untill then, this is my wildcard team. Taking some chances:
Lloris - Foster
Kiko - Dunk - Bernardo - Duffy
Odoi - Son - Martial - Eriksen - Mane
Lukaku - Aguero - Vardy
Bolded are for GW34
In GW35, plan is to maybe sub in Gomez (if ready) and one more of my 3 x Brighton defenders.
I used to believe that Lacazette was a good option, but I somehow think he'll have a hard time with the away fixtures.

For me also the WC and turn the BB in GW 35. I'm currently on. Ryan (Gunn) Dunk Duffy Laporte (Valery, Bednarek) Sterling, Son, Eriksen, Camarasa (Pogba) Jimenez, Aguero, Vardy. Thoughts? Very dependent on couple of teams. Vardy and Camarasa to transfer after GW, probably to Deeney and Watford midfielder.
Will Glen Murray play both matches for Brighton?
I doubt it. He's 156 years old.
Thoughts on KDB over Sterling on wildcard? Surely guaranteed a start at the weekend? Maybe less certain for 2 games in the double.
Jeez man. I need that "differential" and thought Murray could be it. Made up great ground in my league this past month but Hazard fecked me big time. So I'm around 30 off the top, in 4th spot.
KdB, IMO is a definite starter. Maybe Sterling as well, as apparently Pep has prioritized the league. But I'm nto sure any of their attackers will play 2 games!
Any change Kunt will play this weekend?
First GW I can actually afford to buy Kane, and he's injured
Son always seems to play better when Kane is out.
How about Son & Firmino for Auba & Fraser?
Who instead of Firmino, Lacazette?
Or just take out Auba for Aguero?
What about Son for Pogba?

Oh of course...I've gone for it. It's a bit overkill but what the hell. The only one I am worried about outscoring is Periera against Newcastle. Palace Keeper and Bournemouth defender hopefully won't get much this week.
Just take Auba out. He's been beyond useless.First GW I can actually afford to buy Kane, and he's injured

Good chance Salah will play yes
Brighton, Saints, Wolves offer such good value. I have a feeling many people will be disappointed hoping for Brighton clean sheets though

Their 2 centre backs score a few though. You'd get as much chance of a goal as a clean sheet.
This week only, as their 2 fixtures next week look no go!
That midfielder probs looks a better bet, GroB?
Doubt it. Andone will probably start one of the two.
Thanks guys. FFS. I need that “differential” and thought Murray might be worth a shout. Gross sounds like an option along with 1 or 2 of their defenders.
I could go Son & Aguero for Pogba & Auba?
If I drop Pogba from my team, he might start ripping it up again

I would sell him no doubt. After West ham there is hard games too. Although not fully sure about Aguero right now either and Son/auba might not start.
Kane would have been the perfect guy to have if not for the injury based on the fixtures and his quality.
I think Firmino could be a good pick too and he often does well in big games too unlike say Salah.
I just think that Son plays better when Kane isn't in the team. His form, and Spur's form, dropped off a cliff when Kane returned from injury. Kane goes off injured and Son is almost immediately back in the goals.
Probably due to him being their striker when Kane isn't playing.
Ryan / Foster
Duffy / Doherty / Laporte / TAA / Valery
Sterling / Mane / Son / Jota / Hughes
Lacazette / Aguero / Jimenez
Thoughts? Personally struggling to see how I can better that with BB in 35 and still cover the bases thereafter.

With most looking to BB in GW 35, when are people looking to play their TC? Will there be a further double game week after 35?
No, may play it in a single if you have it.
Very similar to mine.
The only differences is I have Hazard instead of Sterling and Vardy instead of Lacazette. I want to keep Hazard as he is a differential for me in my league.
Who is your Captain this week?
