Description

The FPL General is back with a look ahead to the resumption of the Premier League, he's got his usual watchlist update, advice on captaincy and transfers, plus these questions answered:

If there’s a number of players with issues coming back from international break (say 4-5 were flagged), would you wildcard or ride it out for a week?

Is a wildcard a worthy consideration at this point if you have a FT and thinking only 2/3 changes to your squad, better taking the hit on points?

 Is Ronaldo value for £12.5m vs the mid-priced forwards?

 Does Ronaldo help or hinder Man United's other assets such as Greenwood and Bruno?

 What's your view on Ronaldo for a hit?

 Could you rank these forwards? Antonio, DCL, Jimenez, Bamford.

 How do you rank Jota, Greenwood and Torres as options from this Gameweek onwards?

 Is Ismaila Sarr being overlooked as a downgrade to fund Ronaldo?

 Are we overlooking Spurs assets?

 Best GK options for those on wildcard?
