Episode notes

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?
