..at least in terms of rank. 68 points doesn't feel like an enormous amount, but it got me a very nice uptick. I'm almost back to where I was a few weeks ago now, so it's cancelled out the couple of bad gameweeks I had.

Captaining Son was the correct move, so I'm glad I kept the faith. Wilson scoring again was nice too. The few bad weeks I had came on the back of bringing in Wilson and Son, so the fact that they've came good is pleasing.
There'll be no loyalty though, as I'll be removing them both this week. As planned.
Wilson will become Ronaldo, and Son will become a 6.0m or less midfielder. Currently my pick is Jordan Henderson. Obviously Jota would be the ideal, but with him out of my price range Henderson seems good value. He's also looking very attack-minded this season. I notice he wasn't involved in tonight's Champions League fixture, so hopefully he's rested. There's the risk of benchings and early substitutions with him, but at 5.1m I wouldn't have to play him each week.
Of course, bringing him in would also block me from getting Jota in the future. So if I do get him I'll kinda be hoping that Firmino returns sooner rather than later and dampens Jota's effectiveness.
Going Forward.
After this week I think my next move will then be to switch Raphinha to Bowen.
My plan would then be to bring Raphinha back when the Leeds fixtures improve. Though rather than take Bowen back out I like the idea of downgrading my keeper to upgrade Romeu or Brownhill. Bringing Henderson in this week would give me some leeway to do this as it would leave 0.9m in the bank, which would provide a nice cushion to make those potential manoeuvres.
I'm getting a little ahead of myself though, and no doubt things will change over the coming gameweeks.
As for this gameweek I'll be back to captaining Salah in all probability. Ronaldo is tempting given the fixture, but I think just owning him is probably differential enough. Not everyone around about me will be in a position to bring him in, and I think most that do will stick with Salah captain, so if he does go off it'll be a net positive.
