Hard to believe Guendouzi is that young, that's for sure. Same could be said of Greenwood. I really don't understand the reasoning letting both Lukaku and Sanchéz go in the transfer window. United are light for options and have to rely on Rashford who –as you write – is not a number nine. Both Lukaku and Sanchéz have scored for Inter since their moves there too.
And here's how the league managed in gameweek 7. 7 out of 19 teams managed to beat the average gameweek score of 51, making this a slightly more difficult weekend for our league. Still, all teams had a decent score this time around. Well done!
Hang on to your free transfers KDB owners
This certainly complicates things for me and my planned transfer(s). Will have to keep an eye out for news throughout the week!
Hopefully it's only short term I would be happy to bench for a week then it's the international break. One plus for me anyway is Sterling did not start in Europe tonight
Yeah, that's why news is so important. If it's a niggle that only sees him missing one game, then keeping is a simple decision - if not, then I will have to bring in a replacement. Currently have the armband on Sterling. Him not starting tonight is great.
Another plus is Wolves play on Thursday so City assets get a decent rest between fixtures
Good point. Definitely makes City assets handy to own going into this weekend.
Serge Gnabry ex Arsenal player scored four
Can't even remember why they sold him! He'd gone straight into the starting eleven in 2019…
Spurs I have heard issues exist behind the scenes, Poch lost the players?
I heard some football podcasts commenting on a change with Poch and the team after losing the CL final against Liverpool. Who knows?
For once this season I'm glad I don't have Cantwell, but I'm very much in the same situation re. De Bruyne. Undecided what to do yet, but I might just bench him.
Definitely keeping KDB its just my bench can not cope with potentially losing all three Midfielders
I think many of us are struggling with a weak bench at the moment! It's always better to be sure you have eleven starters, so if you need to take a hit to do so, I'd say it's worth it. I'd wait as long as possible though, in case there's some late news or rumours.
I think I am going to have to accept that I may have to play five in defence, hopefully Son and Cantwell will start. I can't fall into the trap of taking hits for a single game week and disrupt my team going forward.
I am thinking bringing in either Mahrez or Bernard Silva for one week though Pep Roulette could mean either could not start
A five man defence could work out; sometimes games just end on a boring 0-0 draw. I'm likely playing four in defence myself. Far from confident in many returns, but team structure (and the KDB injury) won't allow any other solution.
I've been toying with that transfer myself, but there's no way of predicting Pep. Bernardo Silva might be facing a ban, so he might not be an option beyond this gameweek. Mahrez is a great form, but that doesn't stop Pep from rotating. Mahrez has also played more minutes than Silva the last couple of games…
I may just use my one free transfer to bring in a midfielder for KDB though so many good midfielders are out, I really wanted to bring in Aubameyang though would take too much restructuring. I have 0.1m in bank I am thinking if KDB dropps by 0.1m I will be able to bring him straight back in?
Or maybe use Free Hit chip
It all depends on purchase price vs selling price as well as potential price drop. I got him at 9.5, and with the moves I'm planning, getting him back at a higher price might be difficult – even on wildcard. Still have time to decide though.
I've tried all I can to bring in Aubameyang somehow, but I won't be able to do so until I play the wildcard. Like with your team, it takes too much restructuring.
That's right!
Been watching a FPL phone in Managers are using hits like confetti, my gut tells me that this GW is not going to be great so being rash is probably not a good idea as it may not make much difference in fact may just lead to worse point hauls. Lingard is possible out so Greenwood could start that's possible back up. You are right with the potential Bore draws, West Ham v Palace, Liverpool v Leicester, Burnley v Everton, Watford v Sheffield UTD could get me some clean sheet points as I think those games will be tight
Interesting that so many FPL managers are taking hits before this gameweek (De Bruyne is definitely a factor). On one hand you might be setting yourself up for a good gameweek rank if not taking a hit yourself, on the other hand when a lot of managers are taking hits, it also makes taking a hit yourself a little less risky.
I think this gameweek will be a difficult one. Some players are out, some might be rested, and there are some tricky fixtures as well.
After a few hours of thinking about it :)) I have opted to do nothing, I will save my free transfer and hope for the best. If there is a hint that Mahrez will play before the deadline KDB to Mahrez will be my only move, one thing to consider with that fixture though is if Wolves turn up it may be a tight game and not a cricket score.
I'm in the same boat. Mahrez is a tempting option, but I feel I might need more information before making that move. Unfortunately City don't play until Sunday, so we're probably unlikely to get more information before the deadline.
My concern with City is I think they rely on KDB alot for his creativity, Sterling is my current Captain though I am very tempted to put the arm band on Pukki
De Bruyne is definitely a contributor to how well City performs. I don't think we can expect them to play as free flowing without him. That might affect Sterling's performances, but I'm not sure about captaining Pukki. On the other hand, it's a move that might work out really well.
Guaita
Pieters, Fredericks, Lundstram
Mount, H Wilson, McGinn, Salah
Aubameyang (C), Abraham, Aguero.
That's a very impressive front three! Also very much like the rest of the team for this weekend; I can see all eleven players delivering good points.

Still undecided about my own transfer(s) for gameweek 8. Will be a late decision for sure.
