Sancho could very easily be SAVIO! Especially after seeing him again today.

[@ShawnGitahi]

And what happens when kdb comes back,foden will be benched?🤣

[@boosh1967]

I’d definitely go Collins over Pinnock. He’s been Brentford’s best defender this year by a mile and much more likely to score. With Jensen out, Pinnock will take the long throws which isn’t ideal. I also think Dibling is a great enabler. He is going to be a star.

[@GianniButtice_]

thanks mate appreciate that

[@eliasgeorge3471]

I think my team has enough for me to save the wildcard after I do Jota to Saka this week. Only worries are Armstrong (who I can always bench) and Minteh, but selling Salah will free up money to upgrade one of them in the near future.

[@GianniButtice_]

fair play man, great if you can

[@dannyeagles29]

So much good info in less than 15 minutes!!!!!! Thanks Gianni :)

[@fploverthinkerjohnpointles4197]

Great looking team Gianni, always good to see someone push the boundaries a little! If Sancho was more nailed, I'd feel more comfortable with that midfield. With this you are always starting two cheap(er) mids. As good as your premium back line and GK are, would still prefer a little more spent on the attack, esp. given how the bonus work now.

[@marcus2inter]

Congrats for the INTER shirt, Gianni! Sempre e solo, Forza, INTER! Amala 🎉

[@FrazerWiddowson]

I'm also on that similar defence, but Collins and Milenkovic for the extra goal threat. I can see one of those scoring and getting a double digit haul coming up soon

[@hawkesey1161]

I like the fact the game has a few cheap midfield options to punt on. The trick will be buying then selling at the right time which for me I enjoy. Rare those players keep up that form for too long. That said smith-Rowe feels like must have

[@GianniButtice_]

hmmm maybe

[@mayakahahe3723]

Nah not with his away fixtures coming up, he’s only scoring at home. I’ve just sold for Semenya and will look to bring back in a few weeks.

[@alexanderjohnson4277]

I've got Saka..Mbuemo..Palmer..Rogers and currently Szmodics but might FT him..and then I have Haaland..Duran and Pedro up top

[@GianniButtice_]

fair

[@FPL-Tony]

Pinnock and the Brentford defense absolutely have a tempting fixture run, but haven’t exactly impressed even against SOU or CRY.

[@FPL-Tony]

Sancho seems a bit risky too, but could of course be high reward. Ballsy if you do it!

[@FPL-Tony]

McNeil’s fixtures look awesome. Could be great.

[@alicelatham4475]

I have already WC'd. I have Minteh and Adama - would you go Minteh to Rogers. or 2 transfers to get ESR in (with Winks for Adama). I have no arsenal and no spare cash. But I have Sarah, Diaz, Trent, Haaland, Mbeumo

[@lymskiUK]

I think you need to have a Liverpool attacker to cover no Mo. I had Jota and Diaz since my WC going into GW 4. I’ve just dropped Jota to ESR to upgrade Pedro to Solanke. My team going into next week: Ramsdale Areola Trent Robinson greaves Bednarek Faes Palmer Diaz Mbuemo ESR rogers Watkins Solanke Haaland 0 ITB Baaarsh

[@GianniButtice_]

yeah you might be right.... trent is an attacker tho ;)

[@archipiratta]

No one's talking about Deligt and Maza. Utd fefence is proving surprisingly resilient

[@GianniButtice_]

not sure utd def is as good as the last two cleans show. high XGC

[@rossboshell1532]

Swap out McNeil for franco down to 4.4 as a sub frees up a mil in budget, room to upgrade other players

[@GianniButtice_]

yep maybe - could go dcl or evenilson too

[@rossboshell1532]

I need a szobo replacement his numbers are not there and first one hooked off weekend 😐

[@inobi30]

That defense certainly is pricey. Three premiums in a season where most teams are attacking. Bold.! Also going with Saka in a depleted arsenal side. .

[@GianniButtice_]

[@stevensnellings3959]

Ive got Henderson, Fabianski, Trent, Gabriel, Pedro, Robinson and Greaves, Salah, Smith rowe, Semenyo, Rogers, Mbeumo, Haaland, Solanke and Joao. Would like to jump on Raya and Saka but wildcarded GW4 but sitting under 1M so happy for now

[@GianniButtice_]

not bad at all

[@alexkrycek21]

Hi mate. Would you keep Konsa on Wildcard. Was glad to have him for his goal but Villa don't seem to be keeping many clean sheets at the moment. Agree with you on Watkins.

[@DZandima]

Raya is 5.6 🥲

[@alexandermcbrien264]

Brentford Defence: Pinnock the safest pick for minutes but offers little to no goal threat Collins the best goal threat pick as he's likely to be on the end of a lot of set pieces however a worry for minutes Van Den Berg the cheapest pick but again a worry for minutes My personal favourite Brentford asset probably Rico Henry however he doesn't look like returning until the next International Break.

[@GianniButtice_]

pinnock feels safest

[@FPLLeafs]

Would rather have ESR or Carvalho or Johnson instead of Sancho. Moreno's place is not secure, maybe go for Milenkovic

[@abirrezwansheikh2930]

I have gone with carvalho.Do you think he gets regular minutes from now on?

[@GianniButtice_]

YEAH or aina

[@qasimcheema8953]

Gianni what about Saka to martinelli? he looks pretty nailed. Gives budget for Salah + Haaland team!

[@GianniButtice_]

worth consideration

[@DRDR3ADSA]

Competition from Sterling and Trossard, maybe even Havertz. No pens

I wildcarded in lewis a few weeks ago i'm at around 35k and if i'm honest he's a player i'm looking to sell i've no confidence in him playing games didn't play today 45 mins last week .I think a better pick is Aina at least you know he starts

[@GianniButtice_]

[@JoelEmbiid_]

I like Collins if going any Brentford defender

[@GianniButtice_]

think pinnock too

[@RaoPrajval]

Konate is getting Points.

[@GianniButtice_]

he's v good

[@ThillyThauthageth]

You sure you don't want Semenyo? Most goal attempts so far...more than Haaland and look at his next 2 fixtures

[@CraigPriestley]

Might come back to regret this but completely disagree about Trent being a must on WC. For 1.1 million cheaper you can get Arsenal defence, 1.5 million cheaper Porro, and 2.1 million cheaper a Dalot with much better fixtures after the next 2. Liverpool have arguably tough defensive fixtures where I don't see them getting a clean sheet in 6 out of the next 9 games... so then you're relying on attacking returns. Obviously Trent is a fantastic asset, but don't think at his price he's essential.

[@CraigPriestley]

As an example Gianni, Trent and Pedro vs Dalot and Solanke :)

[@GianniButtice_]

fair - i know he's not for everyone at that price. i love him tho
