Minimising investment in goalkeepers has long been a popular adage among seasoned Fantasy managers. Year after year, we find ourselves searching for budget offerings who offer the sought-after combination of clean sheet and save-point potential.

The wider meta, however, often runs contrary to this strategy – with premium goalkeepers such as Thibaut Courtois, Hugo Lloris and David de Gea consistently ranking among the most popular players in Fantasy Premier League in terms of ownership.

    I think I need to think how to get Eriksen back..

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      I'm selling him.-

    2. Syd.

      8 years, 24 days ago

      When Arsenal beat them 2-0 this weekend you will be regretting it

      1. Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Not getting him now for sure but want him in my team eventually

    3. Rash
      • 8 Years

      Sold this week for salah

  2. @NF_Janner

    Argentina have instructions to only play Augero for 45 mins you rekon?

    1. gunner 2727
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Unlikely given the fainting!

      1. @NF_Janner
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Missed that part!?

      2. @NF_Janner
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Shit. Well hope hes all good but as a Jesus owner quids in!

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Could be a fake faint I suppose.

    3. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Was thinking of a conspiracy theory like this one......

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Might be easier just to take him off than to have him faint

  3. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    If Livermore is starting both these friendlies, Wilshere simply has to be in the squad, twice the player even with his glass ankles.

    1. CABAYE4
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      He’s played 5 league minutes despite being “fit” all season.

      If he plays and does well, he’ll go.

  4. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Lacazette goal for France

    Bench appearance confirmed for this weekend

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      He's becoming scarily like the forward Arsenal need.

      Might even make the Europa quarters.

  5. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Are we getting a 'full length' scoutcast tonight?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      I hope not. These 1+ hour long one are ridiculous.

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        preach

      2. Bald Eagle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        I actually like them stretched, more subjects covered.

        1. SuperMane Returns
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 24 days ago

          This.

  6. TaiwanHC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    WC this team?

    Fabianski - Elliot
    Kolasinac - Otamendi - Yoshida - Mee - Long
    Eriksen - Salah - Silva - Atsu - Carroll
    Kane - Aguero - Abraham

    Thanks guys!

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Aguero?

      1. TaiwanHC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Yes. I heard the news.

        So should I use my WC to transfer out this team?

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Stones struggling

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Well they are old, suprised they lasted this long.

    2. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Right on cue

  8. @chapellefpl OR 577TH
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Ireland can really do with Long's pace here.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Yeah and a bit creativity in the middle. Don't deserve to go through playing like this.

  9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Aguero surely missing the weekend fixture now?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      It's not certain.

    2. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Because of this? Highly doubt it 😀

  10. Shakshuka
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Silva subbed on. All good.

    1. SuperMane Returns
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Subbed on?

  11. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    A - Early transfers chasing TV

    Or

    B - waiting and avoiding -4 to replace the likes of Kun

    1. Majestic Chanka
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Always A

  12. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Why is there no winter 'orange' ball being used tonight ?

    1. @NF_Janner
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Conditions hardly need it

  13. VS10_
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Sergio Ramos on penalties. Essential in WC Fantasy.

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Stay clear, card magnet.

    2. Lucky Z
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      David Villa can replace him in this role

  14. Yozzer
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    Feel the pain for Ireland fans. I've felt sick since italy went out last night. Most agonising experience ever. Hope you turn it round

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      We won't. Don't have any goal scorers same as Italy.

      1. Lucky Z
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        This. Better to watch just Eriksen than 11 Irish players

      2. Yozzer
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        We had one . Sat on the f'kin bench

        1. One-eyed Crook
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 24 days ago

          Gabbiadini..??

          1. Yozzer
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 24 days ago

            Insigne. A winger that scores goals and gets many assists. Let's bench him

  15. Business Cat

    RLC dead

    1. Slam

      Oh ffs

      1. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Not dead-dead...is gonna be subbed off in a minute

  16. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 24 days ago

    If I collapsed and woke up in hospital to discover that I was unconscious for 20 minutes the last thing on my mind would be playing football at the weekend

    It's not exactly a normal occurrence for this to happen and I would be very worried. They will have to carry out a lot of tests to make sure he is okay so football will have to take a back seat

    1. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      As a Jesus owner, I hope this is the case - wish him a speedy but not too speedy recovery.

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Doubt he'll play, especially with Jesus there and his manager being Pep - if given the slightest opportunity to rotate someone he'll take it

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Pep will not have a choice to rotate as the medical people will decide if he is available

    3. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      It’s not true

    4. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Non collision a minimum of 48 hours rest. Collision minimum 7 days. As an Aguero holder I can't see how Pep would even consider the risk. But will hold, alongside Mane and Otamendi !!!!!

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Mane is on Man City now?

    5. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      true. but I genuinely think this guy is so stubborn he doesn't think like us mere mortals

    6. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Maybe he's like one of those goats that faint when scared 😉

      How long would one be out of action with a cheek injury?

      1. potatoace

  18. GlasgowFF
    • 14 Years

    Is the away goals rule played in the Euro play offs?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      Yes

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years

  20. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years

    Okay, I get that I'm living in the US...but seriously Fox Sports how can you prioritize US vs Portugal over England vs Brazil?

    1. Pumpkinhead
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      US vs Ronald - in the states that's a massive game more so than England vs Brazil imo. America loves Merica

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

        Ronaldo's neither in the lineup nor the bench

        1. Pumpkinhead
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 24 days ago

          England vs Brazil it is. My America love Merica still stands.

    3. Ramboros

    4. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      ...because it's a game involving the US...

    5. Sánchez
      • 13 Years

      Good on them. Quite right to show their own team

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 24 days ago

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 24 days ago

      And there was me thinking that the only difference between RLC and Pogba was that one wasn't injured

      1. Gangster Panda
        • 9 Years
