I've offered the bottom place in my league Bowen for his Isak - smart move to raise my ceiling or am I risking my floor? for reference, I already have Sesko and Mateta up front in a 12 man league
Its a great idea in theory, buying low on Isak. I just really can't predict this Newcastle/Isak thing. Newcastle dont have a leadership structure in place, so its basically the Saudis deciding. Isak seems ready to go scorched earth and I worry that ego will win over common sense from both. Personally, I'd probably stick with Bowen, but if you have the appetite for the risk, go for it.
Yea, I dont really like the Chelsea attackers (aside from Palmer and potentially JP). They dont produce that much, and are rotation risks. I think you'd can play the GW matchups with Gittens, but I probably wouldn't do much more (unless your league size is 14+)
Tough to call long term, but can't see Richarlison not starting after 2 goals. Solanke isn't Frank's buy, so if Richarlison plays well I think he keeps playing
Preach patience with Arsenal; they will pop at some point. Played in such a clunky way because of injury last year and relied on defense with patching holes in attack. Mikel always wants expansive football- winning with 4 goals vs 1. It will pay off after the 6 week gauntlet to start the season
Eze to Arsenal, he was my 2nd pick in a 16-man draft,
Do you think he's a hold or trade?
I had hoped he gets 150-160 points from the season
With Kai out indefinitely, would Trossard or Merino be the next man up?
Separately, just picked up Dorgu in my 8-man, would you prioritise him over Trossard?

I’ve got gittens which I currently don’t love. Thoughts on Chelsea?

Yea, it was one match. Thinking we should learn more in the next match (Leeds Home).
