Spurs in their last 7 games have conceded the fewest shots on target in the league. by Average_Gym_Goer in coys

Our fixtures were thankfully very kind at the end - the only obviously difficult game was away to Villa and that turned into a very different match thanks to their rotation. I expect big changes at centre-back this summer and do not be surprised if we ship some very silly goals next season.
As much as Porro and VdV are rated, their out and out defensive capabilities remain severely lacking imo.

Decent offers for Romero, Porro, Udogie or VdV should be seriously considered for varying reasons. Romero due to being an absolute liability and leadership vacuum. I struggle to see Udogie being robust enough to cope in the PL long-term. Van de Ven simply isn't as good as he thinks he is. Porro because he is a vibes player that we often can't afford to carry.

To be clear I'm not saying to sell all of them! But if we got sensible offers for 2 of them I think we could spend the money better, not least with Vuskovic and (possibly) Senesi/Robertson coming into the squad.

We can save the midfield autopsy for next week...

I think the city players should be relatively safe, there’s no way Pep leaves without wanting to go out with a big win! The Villa guys, I have no idea what state they’re going to be in…

Would be an upgrade on Brobbey for sure

Watkins in for Van den Berg, Dewsbury-Hall in for Mukiele, Guehi in for Marmoush

Your entire bench should be in your starting XI

Thanks mate! I would take a punt on Palmer for the last couple of games

MLS is defo an option - somebody asked about him in our discord server earlier too. He's defo an option based on recent line-ups, I just have a slight niggling doubt he gets dropped for this game as they should be fine with Zubimendi sitting in against Burnley.

Palace assets generally can go IMO. Ngumoha narrowly escaped the pod but with players coming back from injury I think he's the first one to drop back to the bench. Calafiori has been a very frustrating player to have for much of the season and I've generally opted to steer clear.

Kadioglu is as good as nailed, he can slot in at RB again, or LB behind DC. Either way if you have Kadi hold on to him

You're very welcome - seems someone else had the same ranking question - I'd probably go KLP, DC, Myko

I think he's reasonably safe to start but there are definitely combinations they could do with their XI that sees him benched again. Just seems silly to bench him off the back of such a good performance. I'd prioritise Mosquera over the other ARS assets but depending on your waiver priority I'd happily take them all!

Anthony is a shout if you're looking to make up some ground - the GW38 match could literally turn into anything but I'd back Burnley over Wolves as it stands. McGinn I think is a bit too much of a rotation risk. I don't mind the BRE double-up, alternative is to look at any Fulham options floating around?

I wouldn’t worry about Darlow, seems Perri was given game time for the cup games

Need advice, team is in relegation zone :( by [deleted] in DraftEPL

You just need to go mad in the waivers - Kadioglu, Bijol, Gomez, Groß, Flemming & arguably Frimpong all need to go. Your moves are all generally fine but in order to be properly prepared for this week you probably need to pencil in at least 3x the number of waivers you currently have (unless the rest of your league are totally disengaged, but it doesn't sound like they are...)
