    2. HurriKane

      Man utd, Sheffield, Burnley, Brentford,

      1. Boz
        • 12 Years

        Chelsea too

  2. HurriKane

    9 months, 2 days ago

    Whats stopping this team from winning world cup 2026 ?

    ------- Kane------
    Foden Bellingham Saka
    Rice Mainoo
    Shaw Colwill Stones TAA
    ------ Pickford-----

    Subs: Maddison Eze Toney against tired legs

    Its finally coming home !!!

      2. HurriKane
        • 12 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Unfortunately true. He will play Phillips or hendo at any cost

        Need to be kicked out asap

      3. Bobby_Baggio

        9 months, 2 days ago

        Other points:

        Lack of experience to finish the job.
        Maguire will play.
        TAA cant defend.
        English media ruining it.

        1. HurriKane
          • 12 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          TAA against smaller teams low block
          Walker against top team's

          Yh its s huge worry if Maguire gets his usual favourism from Southgate

        By 'coming home' I'm presuming you mean US/Canada/Mexico??

    4. Biggsy

      9 months, 2 days ago

      Henderson and Phillips likely picked over Mainoo. Maguire will be CB.

      1. HurriKane
        • 12 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Southgate is clueless. His dinosaur tactics wont work

        England need a de zerbi type manager

        1. Biggsy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Doesn't matter. Every England manager has ignored form players and youth and stuck with tried and tested players to their detriment regardless of their club form

        Ok genius. Name me a better front 6 than england's?

      Pickford: Arms are too small
      TAA: Can't defend
      Shaw: Won't be able to resist Big Macs in USA

      1. Merlin the Wraith
        • 8 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        If there still is a world to hold the cup in...

      2. HurriKane
        • 12 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Pope over Pickford is fine

        Walker against big teams TAA against deep block smaller teams for creativity

        Shaw

    8. x.jim.x

      Man said Colwill

      1. HurriKane
        • 12 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        And? Colwill is a top talent

        1. x.jim.x
          • 10 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Maguire hasn't put a foot wrong in a major tournament for England - why would he be dropped for a 'talent' having a poor season? Mainoo's got no chance getting near the squad either, unless Henderson, Phillips, Ward-Prowse and Gallagher are all injured.

          1. HurriKane
            • 12 Years
            9 months, 2 days ago

            Mainoo is miles better than all the players you mentioned

            In 2 years time he will be in the same bracket as Bellingham

            1. x.jim.x
              • 10 Years
              9 months, 2 days ago

              I love Mainoo, but you're overrating him a bit there. I only just realised you said World Cup 26 and not EURO 24, so my bad - will be a few players moved on by then (Walker, Henderson, Trippier, etc)

        2. El Presidente
          • 5 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Not really

    9. CRAZY TRAIN
      • 13 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Southgate for reasons mentioned. Give the job to Klopp on the other hand and I think England could bring it home.

      1. El Presidente
        • 5 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Klopp doesn't want it

      2. Hairy Potter
        • 9 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Just because Southgate is probably going to Liverpool, doesn't mean that Klopp will go in the opposite direction.

        1. HurriKane
          • 12 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Klopp with that team would win world cup easily

        2. Randalleliot
          • 2 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Southgate to what now?

    10. david2378

      The defence is dog sh@t

      No Josh King, that's for starters!

    Which 3 City should we be targeting?

    A. Haaland
    B. KDB
    C. Foden
    D. Alvarez

    Also I’ve got both Foden & Alvarez already
    Plus 2 FT

    Would you straight swap (this gwk)
    Foden & Alvarez
    To
    KDB & Haaland

    Got Exact money available

      I'll be doing ABD from this week as it stands

  4. Bobby_Baggio
    • 13 Years
    9 months, 2 days ago

    Afternoon all. 7.3m ITB & 2FT. Stick with just Alvarez > Haaland?

    Areola
    Estu - Porro - TAA
    Palmer - Saka - Bowen - Foden
    Watkins - Alvarez - Solanke

    (Raya) - Gross - Taylor - Gusto

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Very similar scenario and team to me (see previous page if you're interested).

      I'm tempted by Bowen to KDB to give Alvarez & Foden another week and see how he fits in with Haaland. Then drop one of Alvarez or Foden for Haaland (to keep max 3 City)

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 13 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Cheers sounds good in theory but the dropping alvarez for haaland will be tough as i wont have money due to the Bowen > KDB

        1. Biggsy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          You'd have to free up some funds with other FT - but if doing next week then Watkins, Saka or Trent could be sources as well

    Bottomed

    Which to sell?

    A. Saka
    B. Bowen

    Which to Buy?

    1. Gordon
    2. Jota

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      In isolation, B2.

      But actually A1 not bad if you need funds for City big hitters, players who have a fixture in the blank

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Selling Gordon this week probably isn't 'optimal' though.

        1. Biggsy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          He's buying Gordon tho?

    Shocker of a week last week 33 points with 5 of the below getting 1 pt. Do i need to make wholesale changes? Still have £7.8m ITB 1FT:

    Areola
    Estupinan Porro Walker
    Foden Gordon Richarlison Palmer
    Haaland Solanke Isak*

    Subs: Johnstone, Andersen, Taylor*, Gross

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      No you were just unlucky. If not interested in Watkins at least prepare for Toney in the Isak spot.

      If not this week due to tough Brentford fixture, can upgrade Gross.

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 6 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Wholesale changes aren't needed. If Isak is injured, he's the only one from your starting XI that needs to be changed. You could even roll the transfer this week and just start Gross instead.

      Bringing Jota in for GW24 and Toney in time for DGW25 for Gross and Isak is all you really need to do. You could also upgrade Foden for KDB if you wish and if KDB is getting more minutes and returns by GW25

    Best 3 Man City players to own out of the 4 below for DGW25?
    Alvarez, Foden , Haaland , KDB

    1. KirkhamWesham
      • 3 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Haaland KDB & Foden

    2. Merlin the Wraith
      • 8 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Am going for Silva/Haaland/Kdb

    3. Perbert
      • 10 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Haal, kdb, foden

  11. Bobby Digital
    • 7 Years
    9 months, 2 days ago

    This week's captain pick will be tough. I'm on Gordon atm. because I have Foden, KDB and Haaland. Don't want to put all my eggs in the same basket. Who do you have?

    1. KirkhamWesham
      • 3 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      I'm 50/50 on KDB & Haaland.
      It's just who I think will start out of the two.

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 6 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Undecided as yet. Will be out of Palmer, Gordon, KDB or Haaland (if I decide to bring in the meatshield for Alvarez this week)

    3. Perbert
      • 10 Years
      9 months, 2 days ago

      Haaland, Gordon or solanke..

      According to Pep (read into that what you will) Haaland ready to start.

  13. Tonyawesome69
    • 5 Years
    9 months, 2 days ago

    Pep was asked specifically on Haaland

    Pep Guardiola says Erling Haaland is 'ready' to start.

      The Leno / Pickford hauls were never in doubt!!

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 7 Years
        9 months, 2 days ago

        Why I went with Areola instead of Leno with Solanke in my team I'll never know lol

        Also had Schar 3rd on my bench 😀

        Well done to you though if you had either of the two you mention!!!

        1. The Ilfordian
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          9 months, 2 days ago

          Us Leno owners have suffered for these small wins. My partner has an all England team - the limited options (pretty much just Pickford) have turned to her advantage recently, so happy household all round

          1. G-Whizz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 7 Years
            9 months, 2 days ago

            Nice one!

            I'm definitely going with Leno this week over Areola 🙂

          2. Count of Monte Hristo
            • 11 Years
            9 months, 2 days ago

            That level of patience deserves to be rewarded, good on you both. I have wasted my time with Ederson/Onana earlier in the season and lately Martinez/Raya which is generally disappointing. Leno/Pickford where it’s at.

            1. The Ilfordian
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 6 Years
              9 months, 2 days ago

              Thanks. Leno was a bad mistake and a lesson in not making unnecessary transfers (I thought neither Areola nor Turner would play but should’ve risked it for a week) but hopefully he can string a few weeks together

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      I'm starting Gusto over Gabriel & Taylor but not sure about those CS odds 😆

      Just waiting for Gabriel to replicate the bullet header...

        Chelsea blow hot and cold imo, let's hope for your sake Liverpool score (which is expected) and Gusto actually does a job for you! 🙂
