      Grealish definitely won't play and is easier to find a promising replacement at the same price.

    Have to play 2 out of Kelly/Rico/Hayden this week, so I need strong transfers. Thinking Grealish and Auba to Barnes and Vardy. Prepared to do Vardy to Auba next week if Ars have dgw 29.

    I was all set to downgrade Aguero and upgrade Doucoure to Fernandes but what to do now... If a City DGW is announced tomorrow it would seem daft to sell Aguero but on the other hand he is my only cash cow that would allow me to fund badly needed moves elsewhere in my team and frankly his performances in the last 3 GWs have been soul destroying.

      Really his goal saved Arsenal. That should have been that, but his GK and defence let him down, relying on him to bail them out for a second time in the space of about 5 minutes.
