Goalkeepers

The injury to Marc Ter Stegen has provided budget goalkeeper Iñaki Peña (€4.5m) an opportunity to step up. A home fixture against Young Boys could be a perfect chance to collect a clean sheet on the first night.

If that isn’t the case, we could look to Marco Carnesecchi (€4.5m). He impressively kept a clean sheet against Arsenal in Atalanta’s opening fixture. While things haven’t started as well in 2024/25, the Italian side kept a commendable 15 league shut-outs last season.

      You just know the minute we take Saka out he'll go on to somehow score 4 goals.

      My WC was a tragedy but I'm still happy with it going forward, just unlucky. Stick to the plan

        The plan can change if the information/situation changes

    I Don’t feel the Fomo for Saka. Feels like a trap, plus I Prefer the Haaland, Salah & Palmer combo, with Havertz.

    I'm going to zag and go cheaper on defense, Raya/Porro and a bunch of cheapies. Soooo many 4.5 ish guys to choose from. Love the communities thoughts on who to choose...

    Rico Lewis - I'm willing to take the gamble, definitely want him in a post Rodri world
    Robinson - still feels like a good hold
    Davis - Feels fun to own, but not clear this will end well. Like him better than the 4.0 guys on Ip
    Justin - Leicester great run? Am I crazy??
    Aina
    Man U fullbacks
    Everton guys (not convinced any get forward enough)
    Digne
    Others?

    I had Kudus after man city game as he passed eye test during that difficult game and he was a differential pick as no one in my mini leagues have him.

    I haven’t watched any games after that properly so can’t decide if he is still playing okay but not getting any end product or not.

    Still no one owns him except me in all the leagues i am in.

    He was substituted at half time against Brentford. Was it because of any injuries or just tactical?

    Should I keep him for home against Ipswich or transfer him out?

    Just been looking at keepers, and Raya aside, I cant see how Henderson is a worse pick just because he hasnt saved a pen yet. All keepers are crap

    Gyokeres & Salah vs. Haaland & Lookman/Szoboszlai/Trincão/Savinho?

    Do I take out Kane or Vini Jr?
    No other Man City or Liverpool players and also only Kane and Vini Jr apart from a defender for both Bayern and Real Madrid.
