Differential (TSB <15%): Kayode (BRE) · Form 7.5 · SUN(H) FDR2 · 9.6% TSB. Low ownership means rank gain potential if he hauls.

7. Risk Flags

Senesi (TOT) — form 1.5 (dangerously low)
Currently in starting XI with sub-2.0 form. Rotation / form collapse risk.

4. Chip Strategy

Bottom Line — GW3

Before Deadline

Captain Cherki (form 11.0 · COV(H)). Roll the FT — no urgent moves.

Chip Roadmap

Monitor fixture calendar — hold chips until DGW/BGW confirmed.
