The FPL General is here ahead of a Friday deadline for gameweek 9 and the big story this week is Romelu Lukaku's injury, the General explores a range of potential solutions for replacing the Chelsea striker, as well his usual advice on transfers, captaincy and his team reveal.

All that plus these questions answered too:

  • Is Lukaku to Vardy the only option or should we look at other options for Lukaku replacements? 
  • Is it worth dropping Lukaku for a -4 if I've already made my transfers for the GW?
  • With Salah being the only in form premium option at the moment, is it viable to have one premium (Salah) and two 'light premiums' (Vardy and Son)?
  • Thoughts on Havertz given the Lukaku and Werner injuries?
  • Do I stick or twist on Ronaldo?
  • Is Aubameyang a worthwhile differential pick as a Lukaku replacement?
  • Eight gameweeks in, what are your general thoughts on Grealish as a fantasy asset?
  • What are your thoughts on a Leicester forward double up and have your thoughts changed since Daka scored 5 goals this week?
  • What about Edouard as a lower price striker option?
  • Thoughts on Jiminez as a captaincy punt against leaky Leeds?
