We\u2019ve been terrible so far, so if I Wildcard, I\u2019d naturally take out Ezri Konsa (\u00a34.5m), Youri Tielemans (\u00a35.9m) and Ollie Watkins (\u00a38.9m).<\/p>\n<p>But past experience tells me they\u2019ll turn it around, particularly with Everton, Sunderland, Fulham and Burnley up next.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-21.34.11-1024x169.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-146609 webpexpress-processed\" style=\"width:500px\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>The danger is that I sit on them too long and fall further behind, but if I truly believe Harvey Elliott (\u00a35.4m) is the missing ingredient, why take them out now, just before their good run of fixtures?<\/p>\n<p>When you Wildcard, there is a natural inclination to completely transform your squad.<\/p>\n<p>You might not agree, but I\u2019m not totally convinced my team requires a significant overhaul this week.
