    May go for a double transfer now, Deli Ali and KDB in for Mount and Son. I think Jose is building his team round Deli Ali and if so KDB and Deli should out point Mount and Son

    Looks like good moves! Although Son got a decent score today, it looks like Ali is the one to look at. I can't get him easily, unless I make a sideways move transferring out Son. I don't think I'll stick with Mount either, but I might need to prioritise Abraham and the bench before next gameweek.

    Made the transfer as if I waited I would have been priced out of it, knowing how Jose sets his team up I can see some good Deli Ali Points from him playing behind the striker. And KDB v Mount no contest

    That was quick! Haven't checked how likely it is certain players will go up in price, but if I can, I'll wait as long as possible before making any moves.
    My current new squad is...
    Ryan
    TAA, Soyuncu, Lundstrum
    KDB, Martial, Deli Ali, Salah
    Jiminez, Vardy, Abraham

    Bench...
    Button, Tomori, Kelly, Cantwell.

    Heading into the Christmas period much happier with that team

    Looking very strong that team! Much better than mine (the bench particularly).

    Yeah with rotation and how current squads are my bench not including Button are starters in there teams currently
    I am concerned about Salah

    Going into this period with a strong bench is an advantage. I hope I can get away with doing so slowly, not having to take too many hits.

    Any news why he didn't play the full 90 mins? Rested with the upcoming games in mind?

    I saw he came off after 68 minutes I think it was, not sure at this point perhaps Klopp thought the game was already won and was precautionary. I hope Salah misses out on the World Club Cup, assuming he is still in my team by then

    It's something to keep an eye on. Might just be that they don't want any more injuries before the December games. They have a great opportunity to win the PL, and Klopp probably wants to make sure he rotates enough.

    The World Club Cup worries me. I did consider bringing in Firmino, but a triple-up with a blank just a few gameweeks away, wouldn't necessarily have been a wise decision. I wonder if I can get away with benching Alexander-Arnold and Mané that gameweek, or if I need to transfer one or both out.

    How many GW's will they miss not checked? If only one I will probably bench both (TAA and Salah) it will be difficult for me to get either back in with current funds

    You are right for avoiding a triple up on Liverpool

    I wonder how much Chelsea missed Abraham today as he has been touted as key, hopefully he will be back midweek

    Ole out or will be in roughly a week I think

    Any indications what will happen?

    None from the club though surely Ole position will be untenable if we lose to Spurs and City, It would be ironic if Jose winning cost Ole his job though I would expect the board if they were to make a change it would be after the City game.

    Congrats to DICKLESS TOWN that must be the top score in our mini league this season so far
