    Hoping for a Salah brace today as he is my Captain, in a 2 - 2 v West Ham and a Cresswell assist will be nice, Cresswell coming off my bench for Saiss

    Phew! Cancelo and Chilwell not starting looked to become a gameweek nightmare for me, but for once, I have some decent scores coming on from the bench, with Bamford and Dallas.

    I did consider transferring out Raphinha, but decided to focus on bringing in Dias instead. With Chilwell not playing today, I might need to keep on making transfers in defence…

    Indeed! I hoped that would make a difference in that money league I'm in, but the majority of my rivals get jammy points from the bench too (Bamford's points for most of them).

    In the Gym those Bamford points hurt lol getting rid of frustration. Now I need Salah to save my GW.

    Boring first half, but surely there must be goals in this match!

    Those Bamford points were my chance of a rank booster, fine margins I went with form of Watkins

    It's really tricky to decide who to bench at the moment. I benched Watkins' points last gameweek, for example.

    Phew thank god for that, in that it means I keep I don't lag behind. Need West Ham to equalize for United reasons.

    I'm relying on a clean sheet for Liverpool, so please no, haha!

    Should be fine then. Really struggling with who I should bench next gameweek. Will be a late decision I think.

    Those captaining or getting Salah VC points will likely be the winners of this gameweek!

    The worst thing about this gameweek for me, is that I switched the vice captaincy from Salah to Gündogan minutes before the deadline…

    I did the reverse, Salah is one of those players that even if Liverpool are not great he may get a goal or an assist. Despite having 3 City assets I am always hesitant to captain them.

    For me it was purely down to the form they had shown recently. Annoying how much that backfired!

    3 of my players are flagged with two of them being defenders, I may be forced to take a hit with the next GW mere days away.

    Still undecided myself. Might take a hit to change things up a bit.

    Dier not starting gr though got cresswell assist off the bench for Saiss. Unfortunately Dier will be replaced by 0 points Lascelles.

    As thng's stand I have barely climbed rank at all, very small Green arrow.

    Zero points from 3 of my defenders this GW not good as two did not even start. Hit in coming.

    Any chance Dier will come on, you think? For the money league I'm in, I could benefit fro a Dier one point cameo!

    I might get a decent green arrow if the Sp*rs game is a quiet 1-1 affair. Still not picking up enough points to challenge for the ranks of previous seasons. It might come down to whether the Bench Boost ends up a success or not as things stand.

    Brighton have scored so Dier would not have had a clean sheet so lessens the blow.
