Bachmann Young to Meslier Dallas now
Don’t have the BE but with Dallas dropping 1mil this week I reckon he will be cheaper again in the next week or 2. Think you would be better served by Tomiyasu or Cucurella, or maybe someone else, haven’t had a good look yet.
Whilst Leeds fixtures are good, they continue to concede. Not sure they are worthy of a double up. The bonus for Meslier being save points.

Those (not me) who had patience to hold Toney now getting rewarded :-

24 , 8 , 10 , 6 , 5

Traded :-

Pinnock 10 - > Marcal -2
Benrahma ? - > Traore 7

6/57 Salah including Bachmann DNP , might need his 3.5

Kept Tsimikas on the bench 😂 , was never fielding Mbeumo so good to see he can score decent and well done to those that benefit from his 17

Pereira
Fernandez , Havertz , Alli
Vardy

Think this is going to one very long season , hopefully I improve soon
All out for 94 saw me drop another 269 positions.

Time to buy a decent keeper and rebuild

Scoured through defenders. Really think if looking for a Pereira downgrade it’s either Cucurella, Tomiyasu or Bednarek (at a slight premium).
Arsenal better long term fixtures of the 3 imo, however that may mean nothing.
If waiting a week for a 2nd look at Femenia be aware Watford’s fixtures turn a bit nasty.
If going to a premium option then for mine it’s Alonso, but he’s bloody expensive. May look at a sideways off Cancelo to him next week tho with Chelsea’s incredible run coming up and so much rotation coming in their midfield.

Home to Aston Villa he can get that and then some. Then home to Everton.

Surely if you're going to get him, now is the time?
Years back there was a player, Sanchez I think his name was, got to something like $25 m, could never get him. Ronaldo won’t do that, but might become ungettable.

Something I might consider is wearing the Bachmann donut for 1 more week, letting Meslier get through the West Ham game (which I imagine they score in).
Would allow me to shift Cancelo to Alonso or another Chelsea defender a week early. I know it’s Chelsea v City, I just really rate Chelsea and think I’d rather be on the home team that then roll into the better fixtures. Alonso’s price is about to pop. Same with Rudiger and Silva. I see it as a super aggressive move that others may be priced out of come next week.

de Bruyne
Kane

Looking at attackers, and none really stand out as value.
Lukaku with a tough game. I think he can wait a week. Might be the one to get for Salah when the fixtures change.

CR7 not looking value. If Shaw hadn't conceded the PK and got a CS, that's 18 pts which = CR7 brace.
CR7 -3 nett dribbles. The mind is young. The body is clearly not. $15.5 for a PK taking goal poach.
Can't afford it ATM and Antonio feels far more threatening. Some very leaky sides coming up.
Ceiling feels as high (if not higher) as CR7, and run is good. Why waste a transfer?

Kane still with a tough game. Can wait a week too. Might get cheaper yet.

A few cheap DEF going around. Tomiyasu looks good for a rise, but Tierney even nicer.
Tierney with a high ceiling and dropping his -2 this week, so should bolt up too should they get the same score.
But he is injury prone and from stats, it looks like he might have lost SPs?

For GK, has to be Guaita. 2/2 home CS and 3/4 home games against non top 6 sides coming up. Dropping his 3 pts too this week.

For MIDs, not too many that stick out. Gallagher and Raphinha I like. Not cheap though.
Milner could be a nice cash cow, should he be shown to be a starter.
Sancho one to watch. Dirt cheap but not performing. A nice one to sit on the bench until he explodes.
Saka another to look at.
Gilmour playing wider now with Normann in the holding role? Another to watch.
