Not sure I can be bothered to change it - is Bravo expecting to go to the WC?

Thank %#^* the deadline has come. Never spent so much time on my team as I have today!!!

Most teams are so similar it’s going to be negated anyway.

Regrets I don’t want:
Arsenal clean, van Dijk goal, Salah to outscore Jesus*

What would be good:
de Bruyne haul, Arsenal to concede

* I have the silver lining that I’ll be cheering manicly anything those two do anyway.

Loving the Liverpool team leak, got Danny Ings instead of Firmino and saved money for the rest of the team. :D

Finally went with:

Butland
Bellerin Kompany Coleman
Salah Sterling(c) Mane Özil Zaha
Jesus Welbeck

Hennessey JRod Long Dummett

Some differentials there who I hope will make the difference in chasing down. Decent playing subs to account for possible no-shows.

Good luck everyone! Is it just me or is BGW planning more enjoyable than DGW?

I am relieved that all my Liverpool picks will be playing

Cech
Monreal Baines Milner
Salah (VC) Mane Zaha Sterling KDB
Jesus (C) Tosun

Hennessy Woods Mariappa Long

In the end I decided against the Arsenal front men, as they seems to be too risky regarding game time.

I always thought the joke was that they are in Salford (and not Manchester). It’s certainly very close/adjacent to Salford... a quick google suggests they are (as you say) in Trafford.

Yep, the water thing is the divide so Media City is Salford and over the Canal\River is Trafford. I moved to Salford a few years back (it does have pleasant parts, lol) and how the Citeh bods sulked after I pointed this out to them after they ranted about Salford soap etc....

No need to stop using it, "Salford" p***es off the Rags no end. Except the plastic ones, who don't know what you are talking about.

The only justification I can think of is: Salford is a City and was "bigger" etc than Manchester (the City) way back when, and Trafford is considered part of Manchester (the City) so Citeh bods want it in Salford, and it is near Salford Quays, so it must be.....

All are part of Greater Manchester.....

Am I the only one who didn't go for Jesus? Just seemed too expensive for me. Also got Dubravka in. My 2 rivals both took a 4pt hit and both have Robertson with no replacement sub. One also has Bobby. Hopefully I'll smash them out of the water this week.

My team:

Dubravka
Bellerin Klavan Baines
Mane Sterling Salah (c) KDB Dilva
Laca Wood

(Nordfeldt, Long, Dummett, Crouch)

It's a strange chip really - 1 week only special - unless all your playes score well you will always have one or more picks that your alternatives do better than.

I knew not taking PVA would haunt me! Looked good at 80 minutes of the pool game though!

Zimmerman wrote: 21 Apr 2018, 10:52 That said, I’ve been dead set on Monreal and Bellerin all week.... I’ve had a last minute change of heart and brought Laca in instead and two cheapies in defence instead

Van Dijk -> Moreno
Bellerin -> (Bauer)
Monreal -> Femenia
(Deeney) -> Lacazette

= van Dijk / Monreal / Bellerin v Moreno / Femenia / Lacazette
This is currently hurting. Can see Lacazette making way just after the hour as well.

Would love a West Ham goal to take the sting out of it.

Hindsight, amongst those I had considered anyway
Monreal for Mustafi.
I had Monreal in early season long time, greatly satisfied.
He costed few 0.1m more, but I ended the FH with 0.4m itb wondering where to upgrade last...
But he hadn't been playing for a while which made me wary

Ramsey as 4th Mid (for Mané)
Same, recently he had only played in Cups...
Had I got the leaked line up, I'd have probably picked him and have used the ~2.5m spared budgets to upgrade (and botch) elsewhere

+17p I'd have got with the two moves

Pickford (3.9)
Otamendi, Bellerin, Bauer (Klavan, Long)
Salah, Mane, Sterling, Ozil, Zaha
Jesus, Lacazette (4.5)

No fancy wishful thinking (Ings), no potential party-poopers (Arnautovic), no bench beasts; budget's on the pitch, and they will play, and they will play well, and they will bring me glory. That's the plan. Until the first kick-off at least.
This has aged well...

Working out well 64 points and bonus and keeper to come....going with Lacazette worked...athough need divine intervention from Jesus at the end to boost it.
