I’m on a Wildcard this week. This is because I had the likes of triple Leipzig and a couple of injuries.
The whole of the team is fairly self explanatory with the only differentials really being the Lazio duo vs Celtic .
The outcome of the games have been tough to predict this season. I’m hoping the team is set up to not be impacted by too much rotation in the final two games.

It’s a tricky MD5 personally for me as I still need to catch up overall rank to recover from the shambles that was MD1 and MD2.
My plan is to use my 2FTs to bring in some differentials especially for players like Gosens and Musiala (injured).
Some players I am currently looking at are Saka, Rico Lewis, Dimarco, Thuram and Saliba.
I will also focus on bringing in more players from day 1 as I only have six players playing on Tuesday.
Captaincy is straight forward unless there is a surprise Haaland benching.
One of Kane/Sane will be my day 2 captain if required.

I am looking to potentially take a -4 due to two transfers being for premiums . The injury to Vinicius forced my hand. I believe Mbappe definitely playing both games helps me more than worrying about Haaland rotation.
Sane coming out of the team will inevitably allow him to get a big haul. But Saka at home is too big of an opportunity to miss out on and will have to play both match days.
I would like Patric to be Rico Lewis instead so I may downgrade Cancelo to Lewis due to the injuries in Barcelona.

This week my plan is to WC. MD5-6 are always tricky as many teams are guaranteed their spot in the knockout round and could very easily rotate their main assets.
Inter and Sociedad will be fighting for first place and probably won’t hold back a lot, hence why I’m still having players from both teams.
Atletico and PSG’s qualification are all but guaranteed and I expect them to try to score a lot (although Morata’s position in my team is heavily threatened by Gimenez, with Feyenood in a similar position to Atletico’s but with slightly better fixtures).
The rest of the team is a mix of nailed players at low risk of rotation (Kim, Thiaw, Bellingham, even Kane in a sense) and cheaper differentials (Trossard, Lewis, Riznyk).
I still have 1.5m left in the bank to make some last minute adjustments or to save for next MD.

We could see some rotation this week.
Last week I made a GK transfer and went safer with Ter Stegen. However, he is now injured so again I have a GK problem. I have the same problems as last season when I went with Adan.
Day 1 captain will be Haaland. My day 2 will most likely be Kane.
The other option is to keep Ter Stegen and sell Sane who could be rested but we will see if we get more information about Sane.
Good luck!
