🇩🇪 Hitz €4.1m - Dortmund not in great shape and he has produced a couple of errors in the last weeks. Should start if Bürki 🚑 remains out.
Here's a look at some of my prefered #UCLFantasy options ahead of MD7.
⚽️ Goalkeepers
🇧🇷 Ederson €6.0m - Part of a great defence and free of rotation which always is a worry with City players. And who knows, he might even take a penalty soon 😅

🇩🇪 Hitz €4.1m - Dortmund not in great shape and he has produced a couple of errors in the last weeks. Should start if Bürki 🚑 remains out.
🇩🇪 Kimmich €6.6m - Expensive, but most likely worth it. 4 assists in his last 3 games 🅰️ 🔥
🏴 Man. City defence - Take your 🔵 pick here. Cancelo currently is the most attacking one with Stones/Dias also providing some goal threat. Rotation the usual caveat.
🇧🇷 Danilo €5.0m - The cheapest way into Juventus' backline.
🇪🇸 Hermoso €4.2m - Enabler from Atletico's defence. Playing v Chelsea who don't score too many atm.
⚽️ Midfielders
🇪🇬 Salah €11.6m - Even though Liverpool is struggling atm, he still finds a way to score in a lot of games.
Gündogan (great form 🔥 but injury 🚑 doubt) and Sterling are their two stand outs atm.
🇫🇷 Nkunku €7.6m - If Liverpool's recent form continues, the Leipzig mid. might be a decent differential.
#FPLCommunity #UCL
🇮🇹 Chiesa €7.0m - Picked up some form recently and might be the pick of the Juve midfield with Cuadrado being out injured.
🇫🇷 Coman €8.5m - The pick out of the Bayern mids imo. Already did well in the group ⚽️🅰️ and plays for the clear favourites to qualify for the next round.
⚽️ Forwards
🇵🇱 Lewandowski €12.1m - 12 goals in his last 10 starts in the German league ⚽️⚽️
🇵🇹 Ronaldo €12.0m - Not much explanation needed either 😅

When thinking about who to play in DM for Leeds the word "role" is important. Let's have a think about the role:
A lot of people think Struijk isn't good enough in the build-up phase. Well, what does the DM do in build-up?
Here's a passing network from last season:
As you can see, Phillips' role in the Championship last season was largely facilitating build up in the wide area (on the left interestingly).
Per Wyscout, Phillips is putting up a figure of 7.03 long passes per 90 minutes and completes around 59%. Last season he was making 6.94 long passes per 90 mins at around 52%.
Per dribbles he's putting up similar numbers across both seasons (between 1 and 1.5 p90) and per duels he's putting up the same number (20 p90).
All of this suggests his role hasn't changed much over the last couple of seasons.
This exactly. I think the 8 and fullback roles in this system share quite a lot of common attributes, even forgetting how Bielsa looks to hybrid them in 3-3-1-3. No wonder that we've seen Dallas, Shackleton, Gotts etc play both. And these roles play to Dallas' strengths.
