Not much to say this week other than the fact that I bagged a third consecutive red arrow and as a result I have tumbled out of the Top 1 Million.  Aguero's last minute yellow card cost me 8 virtual points and any chance of an upturn in my rank.  I guess it serves me right for only having him as a vice-captain for the previous two weeks.

This week's transfers were knee jerk and done in rage.  I wanted to bring in players that have shown short-term form and have scored lots of goals this season.  Patience with Lukaku subsided as a I welcomed Kane as a natural replacement (he also doesn't have a blank fixture in Gameweek 27).  I was also looking to increase spare funds in the bank in the hope of upgrading Ozil to Sanchez sooner rather than later.  Out went Giroud and in came this year's golden boot candidate, Jamie Vardy.  He has a cracking run of games from Gameweek 27.

 

Kane makes sense as captain.  Good luck to you all.

*Due to #GW25 starting early in the week, we will know the line-ups for Tuesday in advance. I probably won't make any late transfers, but I reserve the right to shuffle my team around if I know some won't start, i.e. Cazorla or Walcott being benched.

Notes:

I benched Defoe last week and lost out on 7 precious points which saw my slide down the rankings. I should remember not to bench a striker, right? Wrong. I will probably do it again. I know Kane has form on his side, but Liverpool have transformed into the best in-form defence with 4 clean sheets out of 4. I think Kane is due a blank GW and it could happen at Anfield.  However, as stated above, I could still put him into my first team if one of my Arsenal players don't start.  I think Hazard is a safe captain pick due to Chelsea's form and his performances at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League this season.  Looking ahead, I plan on using 1 transfer in GW26 and hopefully 1 again in GW27.  I will then use the free transfer (FT) for DGW28.  Let's see how things pan out.  Good luck!
