Salah at home for me. United away have struggled in all 3 games. Pool will bang 3, but my gut says Mane will do the most damage.
His xG is thru the roof. But hopefully he'll win a PK for Salah to score... this time.
Salah such an obvious choice on paper. Kind of seems too easy. I just feel like Palace aren’t that bad defensively. Would you consider Jota as a differential over Salah? Trent is in such good form whipping it in, it could easily be him if they put 3 past Palace.
I just like to play differential😂

Still getting used to this - you would take 18 from captain every day of the week, right? Although I would have to rely on someone not playing - but need to wait for match ... even then the risk is too great, right? Which is why I should have grabbed a non-playing keeper at the start... Tsimikas and Amartey might just get game time.

Through 4 weeks my captaincy average is 18.75 with 37 of the 75 points coming from Bruno in week 1, so imo anything over 15 is pretty decent. Generally means you hit a return.

Yeah, you've answered both your questions. Take 18 for sure and the non-playing keeper is the go for sure

Score: 151
Rd Rank: 224
Overall Rank: 101 (from 156)

Included a donut from Calvert-Lewin and instead traded Pogba, knowing that DCL could be a late out but preferred to keep him and reduce my Manchester United players, as I would prefer Ronaldo and/or Shaw to pair with Fernandes eventually. Gallagher and Captain Lukaku were superb on debut and aiming to replicate that with the incoming inclusions.

Heavily considered Pepe but after a more in depth research of Jimenez, it is only fitting that I allow him another chance to grace my side, given the unfortunate events last season in his very brief stay. Joining him is M Aarons and still undecided on which back to drop. Pereira has some nice upcoming fixtures whilst Tsimikas still has some cash to make, but not patient enough to hold on for whenever that may be.

$7,840,000 in the bank to take care of one or both of the Brentford midfielders next round.

Well Salah is the PK taker, so someone else's good work results in fantasy pts for him.
Mane had the goal vs CHE, but Reece handballed it on the line. Mane got nothing for it and Salah pocketed the PK goal.

Jota very hit or miss. Wouldn't take a punt on him to be different.

TAA an excellent choice. In fact, the stats so far favour him.
Good thinking Cousin It. I might take a punt on him.
A CS or assist and it's 15-17 pts. Both and it's 25-29.
Has a higher floor as well. Likely to get 10 pts in a failure, whereas Salah could get 5.

I don't like anyone after Pool, so might punt on Adama with the VC in the earlier game.
