Scout Notes

Scout Notes – Gameweek 5 – Sunday

Another big win for Manchester United flatters to deceive as Romelu Lukaku produces a double-figure haul that still may not be enough to halt sales of the Belgian.

Earlier in the day, Chelsea and Arsenal play out a goalless draw which saw David Luiz become the next Chelsea defender to see red to cause a headache for his sizeable ownership.

Here are the notes from Gameweek 5’s final fixtures.

Lukaku’s late show fails to halt sales

When Antonio Valencia crashed the ball into the Everton net four minutes into the match, a 4-0 result looked like the least Man United could expect from their day’s work.

By the end of an often lethargic showing, three late goals put a decidedly flattering gloss on the exact same outcome.

Romelu Lukaku was wasteful until the final flurry in which he scored once – his fifth goal in as many league matches this season – and set up the equally disappointing Henrikh Mkhitaryan for the midfielder’s first strike of the campaign.

Lukaku’s 12-point haul could and should have been doubled. He missed a big chance in the first half having been put through by Juan Mata, and then seemingly surrendered penalty duties to Anthony Martial for United’s fourth goal.

Indeed, post-match, Jose Mourinho provided some insight on that situation – indicating that Lukaku may well have relinquished duties from this point on.

“The penalty-taker today was Juan Mata, but he was out, so I let the players take the decision.”

That may compound matters for Lukaku, who, despite today’s 12-points, continues to see his ownership dwindle.

Over 51,000 managers have already sold him ahead of Gameweek 6 and, having been part of 60% of squads, he is now down to 55.6%, having suffered close to 108,000 sales going into Friday’s deadline.

That still means a majority of managers remain happy with the returns on his 11.7 price tag, though there is a feeling that the Belgian is closer to a barren run than a bonanza.

He led the way with four attempts today, but Jesse Lingard‘s 29-minute cameo produced more penalty area touches (6) than Lukaku’s five, with the substitute’s flick also setting up the forward’s goal.

United’s fixtures are on the cusp of stiffening. A Gameweek 6 trip to a defensively organised Southampton will be tough, although a visit from Crystal Palace a week later should prove rather more fruitful.

After the October international break, however, United will travel to Liverpool and Chelsea and entertain Spurs in what could be a treacherous four-Gameweek spell.

Sergio Aguero‘s 20-point burst at Watford, allied to a long run of good fixtures to come for Man City, has reminded us all that the Argentinian is Fantasy royalty.

More than 216,000 have now bought him since yesterday’s hat-trick, with Roberto Firmino (39000+) and Lukaku (37,000+) the main fall guys.

Mkhitaryan, who tops the FPL midfielder standings after his nine-points against the Toffees, remains a far more popular target than his team-mate, aided by the injury to Paul Pogba.

The Armenian is already the fifth most-bought player for Gameweek 6, with the majority (as happened ahead of Gameweek 5) swapping him in for Pogba.

And United assets at the back are still delivering good returns, with Phil Jones (5.1) unlucky not to sweep up bonus points – his baseline of 17 was easily the strongest in the Red Devils’ defence – with only Valencia’s goal scuppering the chances of extra points.

As for Everton, their horrifically tough start to the season is now at an end, and it’s come at a heavy price.

The side have been winless since a narrow Gameweek 1 victory over Stoke City, and they’ve lost three straight in the league, conceding ever more goals as they’ve gone.

Confidence is low, and their attack is toothless – only Swansea City have managed fewer attempts than the Toffees’ 42 (Spurs lead the way with 105).

At 4.3, right back/wing-back Cuco Martina could be a bargain now that Everton’s schedule takes a turn for the better (BOU, BUR, bri). We’ll learn more as to his starting credentials when coach Ronald Koeman decides on his line-up for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup tie against Sunderland.

No goals, but points to be had

Arsenal visiting Chelsea and leaving with a point from a goalless draw was one of the more surprising results of the weekend.

It was great news for the 10.9% of managers who tempted fate by sticking by Sead Kolasinac, the muscular Bosnian recording a second consecutive clean sheet to keep him top of the Gunners’ defensive standings with 23 points.

His added attacking threat just about justifies the hefty 6.0 outlay he demands, and if Arsenal can continue to show the resilience on display at Stamford Bridge, he looks the most attractive route into an often untrustworthy backline.

The match was not a classic – Danny Welbeck led the way for goal attempts with a meagre three – and it was another case of wait and see when it came to the sides’ two big-ticket men Alexis Sanchez and Eden Hazard.

Both had to make do with appearances from the bench and the 11.9 required to secure Sanchez’s services looks too high a price to be pay until he’s starting and scoring regularly, even with an immediate schedule – WBA BHA wat – that promises much.

Hazard, at 10.5, is rather kinder on the wallet, and Chelsea’s fixtures are even better, a Gameweek 7 visit from a rampant Man City notwithstanding.

But coach Antonio Conte has made it clear he will not be rushing the Belgian back into action too quickly, and neither should we if he continues to be given limited pitch-time.

That Man City match will have to be endured without David Luiz as the 24.0%-owned Brazilian was given a straight red towards the end of today’s encounter.

The centre-half, an ever-present at the heart of the defence this season, will now miss two Gameweeks, with Antonio Rudiger his most likely replacement.

Luiz at least left it until he’d earned his owners a clean sheet. The 21.2%-owned Marcos Alonso was also in the points, but he was way off the bonus points with a BPS score of just 20 – only Luiz recorded a lower score among the Blues’ backline.

His 68% pass completion rate had much to do with that and the Spaniard’s net ownership is currently in decline, even though the 30 points he’s racked up makes him the highest-scoring Chelsea defender.

It would seem, however, that FPL managers expect extra from Alonso – like his two-goal, 16-point show stopper against Spurs, for instance.

For a price of 7.1, they may have a point, but Alonso is still producing consistent returns, and only five defenders have scored more points than him thus far.

One big-name player not producing so regularly is Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette.

His 11.5% ownership base has paid 10.4 for 17 points to date, but after scoring against Bournemouth last time out, he was subbed off on 66 minutes at Chelsea having mustered just a single shot on target – a big chance he failed to convert.

The competition for places in our forward lines is intense. Twelve strikers have scored more points than Lacazette, while just three of them cost more than the Frenchman.

His days of double-digit ownership look numbered.

      Yup. And hoping he starts on the bench next week.

    5. Pierce34
      • 8 Years

      On my WC, but in all likelihood, yes. Had Jesus for 4 out of 5 weeks, sticking with Jesus.

    6. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Yes going without. Chelsea the week after for him, would rather have Lukaku at home to CPL and Kane at hud

    7. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      By the way I really don't think we'll see much of Aguero on the bench anymore

      1. VFORVANDETA
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        You never know Pep.

    8. E25

      At the moment, yes. Dont want to WC or lose Kane/Luk

    D.Silva Eriksen Ritchie Gross

    Kane Jesus Firmino

      good team, save FT

    2. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Really nice team man. If I could WC right now, it would look pretty much identical to this.

      The only player I'd change for the time being is Gross, just because of fixtures but that's just personal preference.

      1. VFORVANDETA
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I will be keep him one more week.

    3. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      It's kind on my eye actually.

      Gross and Firm would be the two that annoys me slightly.

      I think Salah is the Pool player to have if only having one.

      1. VFORVANDETA
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Yup.Firmino had one more chance before i decide to keep him or not.

    4. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      nice team very well balanced, save or if u must get a united player lose a city player mendy to valencia or silva to mikhi, but ur team looks great as is.

    5. E25
      • 8 Years

    The whole Aguero thing has only just hit me. A player who's always been first on my teamsheet, the PLs best striker this decade, available for the cheapest he's been for years, 5 in 5, explosive potential, and facing CPL, STK, BUR & wba in the next 5 games. Also likely to rise the full 3 times this week.

    Taking Kane or Lukaku out just feels a bit of a sideways move given that my team has bigger issues, but I think I may have to.

    1. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      can you wait until they've played Chelsea?

      1. A Betting Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Both Kane & Lukaku offer decent captain options that GW. And Aguero will be 0.3 ish more expensive depending on his performance vs Palace.

  5. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    What would you change in this team

    Foster
    Davies / Bertrand / Bailly / walker
    Atsu / Mooy / Salah
    Aguero(c) / lukaku / Kane

    Bench - Elliot / RLC / Carroll / Rangel

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Nothing.Nice team.

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      gtg. some good teams on here lately, my issue would be having Saints player and Ritchie is better than Mooy if affordable.

    3. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      This isn't my current team. I was just wondering if I should just take a WC. If I do this is how it would look like .

    4. E25
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Bit top heavy, Id prefer more balance but it's obv a good team

  6. I am 42
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    2 cap option is good enough

    next focus on ppm rather than another big hitter

  7. Rik Waller
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    When's the pay rise deadline? Will Kun rise tonight?

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Need another 6459

    2. Suarezista
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      in 10 minutes.
      fplstats has him on 96% so may rise

    3. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      About 10 minutes.
      Kun at 96 % and rising. Who knows.

      Yes I deserve a pay rise.

  8. Tickle Me Enzo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Looking to transfer out Ake, have 0.0 in bank, thoughts on best 5.0 defender or less? Was thinking about Lascelles but I do have Elliot.

    1. Suarezista
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Naughton

  9. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Any guess how much aguero will rise this week?

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Another 0.2

    2. I am 42
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      max 0.3?

    3. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      0.3

    4. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Another 0.2 so maximum

  10. MOBAFFILIATED
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone taking a punt on Cuca Martina at 4.3?

    Seems to have that starting wing back spot, might share it with holgate but cuca is the more natural WB as well as 3 very goo fixtures coming up.

    Looking to move out Bertie and trying to decide between Lascelles or Martina

    1. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      He was the most involved player yesterday
      At 4.3 , it's a good buy even if he gets benched in odd matches

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Everton fans say he played well is one of few attacking threats but terrible in defence. I gambled as only way could get Aguero for Firmino. Had to sell Alonso which could backfire badly

  11. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Can we expect gross to keep chipping them points?

    1. Rossamous
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Anyone's guess but I'm counting on him

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Gross point blank incoming

  13. Scout15
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    My 3 at the top are Kaku - Morata - Chicha
    but i have 2.1 itb
    Wanted to get rid of Chicha, but now not sure who to get instead? Or better somehow get Kane/Kun in?
    What to do?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Chica > vardy

      1. Scout15
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I considered that. Better than Chicha-> Firm?

    2. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      One of kun/kane

      1. Scout15
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Kaku->Kun?

    3. E25
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Firmino a good option

  14. A Betting Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Lossl / Elliott
    Alonso / Davies / Jones / Lowton / Mbemba
    Alli / Mkhi / Tadic / Richarlison / Chalobah
    Kane / Lukaku / Chicharito

    £0 ITB, 2FTs

    Which kneejerk?

    A) Chicharito, Tadic & Richarlison > Joselu, Salah & RLC
    C) Kane, Chicharito & Tadic > Aguero, Hemed & Salah

    Thinking B but also haven't researched Hemed at all, team inflexibility could come back to haunt me, may as well go £4.5m?

    1. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      A. Salah is too important.

      1. A Betting Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Salah is in both solutions? :/

        Just looked at Hemed's stats - think I'll be avoiding lol. Also decided on keeping Richarlison for Swansea.

        So Tadic & Chicharito are the first names on the chopping block, with Salah, Joselu & Aguero the main targets.

        Any thoughts on how to achieve this? Happy taking -4

        1. A Betting Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Could be achieved with a radical looking 4 moves.

          Kane, Chicharito, Tadic & Lossl > Aguero, Joselu, Salah & 4m GK. With 0.3m ITB

          But that's surely madness.

  15. tafrère
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    A long way to go but what about this draft for newt gameweeks transfers :

    GW6 : Otamendi K.Long (£0.7 itb)
    GW7 : Save FT
    GW8 : Aguero + Vardy Kane + Chicharito (£0.2 itb)
    GW9 : Save FT
    GW10 : Loftus-Cheek Fer + Save FT (£1.2 itb)
    GW11 : B.Davies Cédric + Save FT (£0.5 itb)
    GW12 : Mee Naughton + Save FT (£0.5 itb)
    GW13 : Krul Foster + Save FT (£1.0 itb)
    GW14 : Morata + Azpilicueta Aguero + Mee (£0.3)

    A margin of £0.3 to proceed and hits preserved in case of injuries.

    1. Ayew Holding Mee Cork

      You think too ahead. Your plan is gonna derail soon when the inevitable injuries/bandwagons appear.

    4. Ask Yourself

    Aguero or Aguerno price rise in less than 10 minutes?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Will be close

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      No. But if I were buying I wouldn't take the chance. He will rise tomorrow at latest and you will know no more by then

    3. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Aguero. Definitely

    4. fedolefan
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      no

    5. ★Kuntheman★
      • 8 Years

      Aguernooooo

    6. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Probably not but you never know. On my WC so would appreciate a rise or two.

  17. Geri-hatricks
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Really desperate for Aguero/Jesus for the weekend but would mean sacrificing Mkhi, Lukaku or Eriksen.

    Not convinced by United even after their good start to the season. They were struggling in the second half and seem to rely on the game opening up in the last 10 mins to score their goals. Still think I should keep one of Mkhi (who looked to be more involved without Pogba) or Lukaku. Eriksen has good fixtures but I also have Kane.

    Thoughts?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Drop Kane

      1. Geri-hatricks
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Tempting but no. He still getting a lot of opportunities, good fixtures, double just last weekend. Hat trick is just around the corner methinks.

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Yes that is the decision you need to make. You surmised it fine

    3. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Am thinking Eriksen --> Silva or Kane/Kaku --> Aguero (to bank the price rises this GW)

    4. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      When you say 'struggled' in the second half, they were up against an Everton side who do actually have good players and probably just had (another) rocket up the bum from their manager at HT. Sometimes people are not happy unless teams are walking the goals in like there is no opposition. Only City look like that at the moment. United have showed an ability to go on in games and keep attacking, not sitting back but going for the kill. There will always be points up for grabs there....maybe that's another way of looking at it!

      1. Geri-hatricks
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah fair enough. It just was a big contrast to the first half where they controlled things but Koeman's team talk could have been the thing! Not the best fixtures for United though so could be more games like last night!

  18. henryleeds
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Hazard + Chicharito > Aguero + Ritchie/ Atsu + 1

    Any help would be appreciated:)

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers for the reply, do you have any advice about whether to go with Ritchie or Atsu + 1 (means I can upgrade my defence in the future)?

        1. VFORVANDETA
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Ritchie for me.On Set pieces fk and pens.

  19. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Aguero and Martina -4 in for Firmino and Alonso.

    May god have mercy on my soul

    Honestly thinking about transferring out Lukaku for Aguerro, rather than Kane. Thoughts?

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Could work. I've had Lukaku every week but he's provisionally dropped on my WC draft (though not in reality because of value)

    2. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Make it harder for you.. Kane 1 in 5, Kaku 4 in 5.
      Only differential imo is a potential for a haul next week more, considering you are captaining one of these.
      Does Aguero, Kane or Kaku more likely to get one?
      😉

    Just done Antonio + Firmino > Loftus-Cheek + Aguero (-4).

    Feels good having Kun back.

    1. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I hope you aren't relying on RLC for returns. Their next three fixtures look frightening.

  22. VRP
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    A. Firmino + Alli -> Aguero + Ritchie (-4)
    B. Alli -> Silva
    C. Save

  23. bennyp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    WC team:

    Fabianski - Elliot
    Bavies - Kolasinc - Jones - Mbemba - Cedric
    Silva - Salah - Grob - Ritchie - RLC
    Kane - Vardy - Aguero

    Thoughts?

  24. NATSTER
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Trying to do Firmino -> Aguero, but not sure who to sell for funding.

    A: Alonso -> 4.1
    B: Morata -> 7.2

    Which move would you consider?

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      My guess is Alonso, Morata and Firmino would outscore Alonso, 7.2 and Aguero, or Morata, 4.1 and Aguero.

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Honestly, I'd keep Firm with Alonso and Morata

      1. NATSTER
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I have Salah too. That's probable a good reason to drop Firmino.

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I did the same and Alonso to 4.3 Martina. Risky as have TAA Bavies and Manquillo

      1. NATSTER
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        It looks risky.

        I have Cedric, Bavies, Naughton, Rosenior, and Alonso.

        Only way to fund the move is Alonso -> Mbemba.

    4. VFORVANDETA
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      B

    5. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      The problem is captain choice. Firmino (lei) and Morata (stk) or even Lukaku (sot) and Eriksen (whm) look worse than Aguero (CPL).

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        If in doubt, go Lukaku imo

  25. TorresMagic™

    3. Kiwivillan

      I couldn't risk Aguero rising. Had to pull trigger

    5. Captain Blanks

      Suttner literally immune from drop

    6. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Still no 4.5s dropping? Come on people, sell Suttner and Mee!

      1. Supersonic
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Agreed!

    7. Albrightondknight

      Who the flop is Baldock? Cool name all the same.

      1. Carlton_Goal
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Striker who plays for Brighton. Used to play for west ham back in the championship in 2012 and was quite good, not sure what ever really happened to him though, think he had injury problems or something

      2. Az
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years

        Brighton striker.
        Very good player, but had a nasty injury for a while now.

    8. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years

      Suttner is immune to price drops

    9. A Betting Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Excellent, another 24 hours to think.

    13. fedolefan
      • 9 Years

      Did Silva rise twice in price in 3 days?

      Laca drop is beautiful.

      I had Stephens, Dummett, Zaha, De Bruyne, Redman and Benteke in GW1, between them they've lost £1,000,000 in just 5 weeks. I swerved a few drops, Jesus bounced back, and I stayed in the black riding some cheeky FT arbitrage, but it's left me curious how many people are sat on stagnant, deteriorating teams with Lindelof, Chadli, Hazard (c). And who out there has swerved the most, whilst remaining competitive, ie no hits.

  27. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    The only player I fear not owning is Alonso.

    1. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Why? He's explosive though.

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Everytime I see Alonso going forward, taking those runs it's dangerous, like one good shot and boom goal

    2. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Chelsea won't win 13 in a row and he will be rotated due to CL.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        How do you know though.

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I sold. Brace incoming

      1. Pierce34
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Haha, despite the advice to be cautious with Martina! I'm considering Martina on my WC draft as well to be fair.

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I won't sell Alonso to fund anyone. He will haul sooner rather than later.

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I never had him !!

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          You goin to keep living in fear or what?

  28. Maddi Son
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Anybody know how Mahrez has looked this season? I know he hasn't scored many points but has he looked dangerous at all?

    I like having a differential or two just for entertainment and thinking about bringing him in.

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      No where near his winning season form. I'd rather have Ritchie

  29. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    What to do with this lot? I'll obviously save until mid weeks have been played.

    A) Ake and Morata to Fernandez and Jesus (-4)
    B) Lukaku to Aguero
    C) Mooy tro Brady
    D) Something else

    Hart
    Davies / Cedric / Mee
    Salah / Mkhi / Ritchie / Mooy
    Kane / Lukaku / Morata

    Elliot / Ake / Carroll / Long

    1. Mane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Why is dropping lukaku even an option?

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I think B.
      Maybe I am just a bitter non Kaku owner who captained Kane, but Kaku looked so bad today.
      He did play a nice weight on the pass to Mkhi for his goal. For his own goal the ball literally feel at his feet.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Then then is CPL at home in GW7 but still.

    3. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I'm honestly not sure. I'd want some City attack but probably wouldn't sell Lukaku or Morata for a hit. Mooy would be the only player I'm unhappy with there.
