      Sounds like Mitoma likely to be out for Forest so I'd probably move him on for Mbeumo. Maybe Darwin next GW

                You gotta own him to sell him . He gives me PSTD every time he plays. Slowly killing my season piece by piece. Don't want a long injury for him but wouldn't mind if he missed the Burnley game as I'm expecting him to sink me

                    He really does. One of them when west ham score and you pick up your phone to check sofa scores you have vomit in your mouth before you have opened it because you know what's coming and he rarely dissapoints. No idea why I still don't own him. Bad management I guess

                      He has been one of my favorite players in fantasy for a a few seasons now. I always rated him. Its never too late to accept a mistake. If you want Bowen, get him, when you know he is fine. Being stubborn about fantasy decisions never helps. For example, you make a bad choice, say you take someone out, they then start hauling, but you refuse to get them back because you look like an idiot. In situations like that, I think its better to just swallow your pride and do what you need to do. Only way to make a mistake worse is to let it get even worse by ignoring it.

                        Yeah I was thinking about it but it's deciding who to lose from Son, Trips and Saka and I don't want to lose any of them either.
                        . His price point isn't good now he's gone up so much. I will have to end the torture at some point though

                          Cant fit them all. I didn't have Alvarez for like the first 9 weeks. That was painful. But I kept rank, probably because I had Bowen lol. I then finally got Alvarez, and surprise surprise, he doesnt return anymore lol.

        Matty Cash

        If you watch highlights, he is always dashing on the back door of goal. His involvement is still very good. In fact, Villa usually bombs the box with people. Feeding frenzy. Cash and Digne lead the league in PK area touches for defenders.

        Watkins

        He's not a great finisher, but he get's lots of opportunities. If his opportunities are going down, you can expect fewer goals. But if the team is more conservative versus bigger clubs it means that Villa will not have 3 or 4 guys in the box attacking the ball. It will just be Watkins primarily. Today, you have Watkins, Diaby, Cash all in the box. With Zonozio (sp?) and Bailey also present when they are on the field. Against small clubs, go look at the box touches, crazy numbers for many players.

          Cash is such a garbage pick. He got 2 goals in GW3, then became possibly the most over-rated player in the game, he has literally done f all for 5 weeks at least.

              Perhaps, and I am being harsh. He has just been a useless pick for me, along with many others probably. If you took away the points from those 2 goals, he drops so far in points, down to 30. He would be equal to Botman, Botman who has only played 5 games, 5 games vs 13... that's shockingly bad.

                  Oh lol, wasn't sure haha. Haven't looked at his stats, but not good eye tests when I did watch.

                  I already sold him for James. Its early, but couldn't afford the price changes. And although James is fragile, the fact he wasn't part of the England squad gave me some reassurance. Plus I think everyone will get him, and I am willing to be early, hopefully he can haul in one of the ext. two and that would be perfect for me.

            I'm not saying he's going to net you 200 points for the year, just saying that he is in the box and Unai's system give Cash opportunity.

            He's like a super cheap Chilwell (when not injured) on a less defensive team.

            When it comes to defenders, the "occasional" goal guys lead the points by freak occurrence. Even Watkins has almost 1/2 of his points from two games (35 of 80)

              oh right yea. Yea your plan sounds ok tbh. I think most people in your position will do similar. But you might have to eat one or two price drops. Maybe you don't need 3 for Bournemouth, even if it is a good fixture.

            I feel like this site would be helpful but the ads kill me. I don't know if it's just me but they are insuferable on there.

                I can find away but I prefer chrome and my chrome adblocker doesn't work on it so this just won't be a resource I use. I personally do not like firefox but I appreciate the comment.

                  get AdBlock. What are you using? I'm on Chrome, I just went to that page to test. I clicked 30 links and no ads on chrome for me using AdBlock.

        Haaland (C) unless it seems too risky after we know more.

        Forgot to make trannies last week so got 2ft now. Sitting 59k OR. Have done Maddison to Palmer. Thinking arsenal defender in for Tavares with 2nd ft. Struggling to seperate white, Gabriel, Saliba, zinchenko. Any insight into who's most secure for starts and who has most attacking potential?
