    Suspect he will, but he will see game time in other competitions – and he's a great player to put on.

    Man, this game is so stressful!

    Arsenal have done well to get a draw down to ten

    Massive advantage for United this, and the top four battle.

    Just watched highlights, Martinelli looks like the player I thought Pepe would be... Can they cancel the Pepe deal lol

    No, they can't, haha! I think Pépé has struggled with adjusting to a new league. Can only hope that he improves throughout the rest of the season.

    You would think so, Ole has a habit of making subs with 10 minutes to go. Greenwood should be on for the second half IMO.

    Son not working out, Spurs have become us last season and this season lol

    Won't be surprised if he comes on and scores!

    You must be getting a green arrow now surely? I'm down to 147k and counting, from 114k before this gameweek.

    Vardy blanking again, in fact not sure he has scored since his rest.

    Greenwood on for United

    Vardy is out for me, no doubt; I just wonder if I should wildcard or not.

    Only just realised Vardy went off on 42 minute mark, Leicester scored four without him. Yeah Vardy for his price time to get rid

    Several options to, depending on if you downgrade or have funds to upgrade. I could switch to a 4-4-2, but that's not flexible as far as spreading funds goes, or I could just do a striker transfer and leave it at that. Bt since I'm losing ground to the top 100k, I must do something drastic.

    Ings a definate for me though has Liverpool next

    Yeah, that's a tricky fixture. Could still deliver though.

    The Liverpool midfield double-up does limit my options; if I wildcard I might go with a double-up in defence instead, and shift funds elsewhere on the pitch. Hm…

    I wish I had got Firmino in now that's for sure, I think I am going to take a hit Vardy and Greenwood out.

    Vardy has pulled his hamstring

    Edited: I may have to hold off as Abraham is injured also. The next GW is February 1st which gives me a bit of time for players to recoup.

    I've taken hits two gameweek in a row now, going against the way I've played this season. On a 50k rank drop now with Alexander-Arnold, Mané, Salah (TC) and Jiménez to play. Itching to play the wildcard to turn things around.

    The gap between now and the next gameweek is both positive and a negative; long enough for a player to get fit again, and also long enough that a transfer might be risky to make. Add price changes to that, and you might fid yourself in a tricky situation. I might do an early transfer, then use the wildcard if something happens in the meantime.

    I have a green arrow remarkably of a few hundred, I am at 45K in the world the Everton/Holgate capitulation is still hurting. Tomorrow with many triple captaining Liverpool assets is going to effect my rank one way or another.

    So many assets have failed this GW its made things not too damaging so far.

    It depends I think. Those of us who have played that chip really rely on our Liverpool captain scoring big, and many have taken hits to load up on Liverpool assets. So the effect might make a difference on rank, but maybe not too much. Also, if you play triple captain at the right time, you can make up for those points anyway.

    I'll wait till around GW 30 whenever the double GW's with many teams involved to use my Triple Captain, I still have my free hit and bench boost also.

    I am going to change to a 352 when I do make my transfers, I have a plan though will have to execute it over a few weeks

    Mane off injured in first half, good for me though not for anyone who triple captained him ouch!

    Henderson scored TAA assist Liverpool leading 1 - 0 against Wolves

    That might work out better; Salah (TC) doesn't look that lively right now, to be honest!

    I'm eyeing a 3-5-2 as well. Don't know if I can do it without playing the wildcard though.

    A rival in another league triple captained TAA; A couple of clean sheets alone, and he'll take my position in the mini league!
