Hotstepper - personally I would play Laporte as he most likely has a higher chance of keeping a CS vs WHU than Arnie and Del have of scoring/assisting against such strong defences.

Libero - close one probably Pereira has a better chance of a CS than Arnie does of scoring vs Man City but then I can see BHA grabbing a solitary goal. I'd prob still bench Arnie though.

My dilemma, bench Brooks (ARS) or Arnie (MCI)? Currently playing Brooks but wondering if I'm being a bit hopeful as he's not quite in the same FPL class as Fraser/Wilson (yet) and may get subbed off for Stanislas/King. He may get more opportunities to score/assist than Arnie though. Any thoughts please guys?

Bench one of Arnautovic, Ings, Alonso. Ings is a major doubt to start and probable no-show. Yet the fixture is so juicy that leaving him out in case Hughes is just trolling is difficult. Opinions?

Still undecided on my dilemma. I may be swayed by the fact I don't have any City defensive coverage; if Arnie scores and I've benched him, at least he will have wiped out the clean sheets of those who've just bought Laporte or have Ederson.

On your dilemma, play Brooks. Definitely play Brooks. Monreal and Koscielny are still out for Arsenal. Kolasinac got lucky to come up against Salah on an off-day. Can see Fraser, Brooks, Wilson, etc. doing the business and I'm an Arsenal fan. :(

Arnie on the bench.

I think I've messed up my WC (barely made any transfers - doh), but I do have this dilemma:

Arnie, Jimenez or Alonso - who to bench?

Already benching Camarasa and planning on playing Doherty (so one of my Premiums - Robertson, Alonso, Laporte - has to go)

Libero - cheers for the heads up on the depleted Arsenal defence, I didn't realise both Kosc and Monreal were out so definitely going to stick with Brooks. Good luck with the Arnie move if you go that route, you never know you might get something on the counter or a pen (Ederson I'm looking at you).

Right now I have Richarlison benched and it doesn't feel good, but at the same time they're playing Liverpool. But in derbies everything can happen. Especially a goal from Richarlison.

I'm wondering who to bench of:

Richarlison (liv A)
Arnau (New A)
Murray (Hud A)
Bennett (car A)
Duffy (Hud A)

Arnie for me. He's certainly on my bench, but I have 2 yellow flags in my starting eleven, so his points might count for me.

Oh fish, Bennett's been firmly stuck in my 11 but now I'm concerned haha.

I need to bench one of:
Fraser (mci)
Duffy (hud)
Bennett (car)

Fraser is currently warming his rear there but I've actually been switching Duffy and Fraser around frequently. Does last week's Huddersfield performance give you pause with Duffy?
