GW30 (BB, no WC) team {thread}

Ok there's been v little change to my team lately and I'm more or less locked in for the deadline at this point. Love this team as it gives me a lot of punch for 30 but can quickly be adjusted to a more long-term squad:
I marginally prefer Saiss to Lascelles but the extra 0.2m gives me more flexibility for the moves I'm anticipating wanting to make early on. Earliest of all could be O'Connell to Lundstram if he's confirmed to start before the lock:
As we head into gw31 (no WC remember), if Spurs look good and especially if City rotation is looking extra problematic then Son and/or Kane will come in for Raz / Kun for that enticing home West Ham fixture. Good fix rest of season too:
Heading into gw32 with 3.3m spondoolees burning a hole in my pocket, Bruno will likely come in for Utd's superb fixture run, Grealish departing as Villa's fixtures fall off a cliff:
As we reach gw33 this leaves enough in the back pocket to turn Auba into Kun as Arsenal's fixtures get tougher and City's turn into the finest swiss cheese. If it's normal City rotation that's while I'll do, if it's become unmanageable then I may upgrade elsewhere:
If Kun starts well and Kane is still playing deep or looks very rusty then I can go with the more simple moves of Raz to Son in 31 (Son cap) and Grealish to Bruno in 32:
Obviously our captain choices are critical to our scores so I like to plan the next 3 or 4 in advance, even if this could obviously change based on what we see:

30 - Sterling (ARS, BUR)
31 - Son / Kane (WHU)
32 - Auba (NOR)
33 - Bruno (BOU) or Kun (sou)
The obvious risk in my teams is the lack of Liverpool. I love Trent but at current price with tough opening fixtures and then the title won I'll take that risk on. If Liverpool come out flying and Mo looks 🔥🔥🔥 then this will be my 'in case of emergency break glass' team in 31
Thanks for reading and I hope this will be helpful to somebody either in terms of the picks or perhaps more so the process / planning. Good luck! RTs etc appreciated ✌❤
