I have a second team that is doing rather well, 782 points and 556th in the world and 2nd in the BBC Fantasy606 league (Got mentions on the last couple of podcasts!). I don't usually spend much time on this, but in a quandary this week. Have 2 TFs to play with and don't much like any of the options. - Upgrade the 2 ropey defenders to get cover for the upcoming period and live without Salah who everyone will captain if they have him.
Getting rid of Mitchell / Saiss gives me 10.2, so maybe Cresswell/Dallas.
- Try and get Salah in (and Captain), which would mean losing one of the other 4 premiums and having little bench cover
- Kane/Jota > 6.5 Forward (Watkins is the only reasonable one)/Salah
- KdB > Salah leaves me .5 to upgrade a Def
- Fernandes > Salah, leaves me 0.4 to find somewhere, so maybe Jota to JWP/Bowen/Neto
- Son > Salah, Jota > Neto and Chilwell > Cresswell for a hit and considerable loss of value
Gut tells me to go without Salah, especially given he played 90 mins midweek, but that is a big decision to make.

I see nought wrong with those 8 attackers. They're my DT in fact. For me, it's Kane & Son, not Kane or Son. If Son scores, it's usually Kane with the assist. You've got City and United also covered, and although Jota is no Salah, he is great value and offers some coverage for Pool. I think he'll see equal time with the usual big 3 Pool attackers, so don't worry too much about him.
I think Mitchell can stay for now. Saiss should be your FT and it's best to roll over the other again until you really need it. Never know when an injury or COVID will hit so keeping 2 FTs is a prudent move. As for who to get, that's up to you. It's a lottery. James looks good, but is 3 CHE DEF too many eggs in the basket? Mou seems to be parking the bus well for Spurs. CS vs CHE, ARS and City is impressive. Cancelo or Dias? Alioski? Seems to be getting a good run these days. Or pay the extra pips and go with Dallas.

You can go toe-to-toe with Mo this week due to your double TOT. Jota is a doubt though and you've enough for Grealish! Fix Saiss though, Justin is playing every PL/EL game atm so he's due a rest fairly soon, go for a 4.5 Leeds or Villa, nice fixtures. gl

Jota to Grealish is likely now given Jotas injury. Kane Captain probably. Will keep the extra FT for now and then maybe Saiss to Creswell midweek if nothing else to worry about.

Just wait for Jota news ..... if he is out for 2 months, then swap him out .....defenders cheap & good, Lamptey 4.8m ; Reece 5.1m ; Dallas 4.6m
