As BOF said though, I think he’s done enough to at least start against Bournemouth and then we’ll see from there the good thing is that we watch enough villa games to know that once he hobbles off it usually means a lengthy absence for him so we should be able to transfer out before the rest do and thus not taking the hit on the price drop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted August 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2022 why can't i nail down this bloody team. it's the perisic dilemma. the reward is huge if he plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Changed my team about 30 times this week , gone heavy on forwards but my head keeps telling me I should go big with midfielders as they on the whole earn more points current team has no Salah , huge gamble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm… I might swap out Martinez for Mendy and get Cash in for Doherty. Whatever I do the other will have a blinder of a first GW and score a hatrick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conte said both he and Perisic need to be assessed. I might swap him out. I'm tempted by DIgne to be honest instead of Cash.

a-k Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just need to confirm my GK, my 5.0 DEF, and my 8.0 MF and I'm ready. Also trying to factor in my ideal GW2 transfer as well, but might just bank that one for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIth Ederson as first choice why waste £0.5mil having Sanchez on the bench when you can have Ward for £4.0 mil ? Even that get's you £0.5mil in the bank for any transfer you might want to do going into Wk2. Paying over minimum for a bench keeper seems like a waste With so much invested upfront you are also somewhat limited in the formations you can pick as the talent is all stacked in the one department 4/10 WNB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just have to pray you get no injuries in the first week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
