    No one in my team until 3pm. I hate not having any players but was so burnt by Kane last August that I could not go there again... Maybe next season...

    In Dubravak we trust. . . .to save Kane'z shots

      He starting?

      1. Ron_Swanson
        • 16 Years

        yes

  3. Sharkytect
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Moura starts, yuss!!

    After shaw's goal, i would be happy if moura scored and the rest of my team flopped!

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Because the rest is FFS template

      1. Sharkytect
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Exactly right

  4. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Mark created the beast, now he’s looking to sell it

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      What?

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        You seem surprised?

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      How much will it take? Looking to make an offer after I win the lottery tonight.

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        The new mods come with the package

        1. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Oh. Think I'll pass then.

      2. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Is it really up for sale?

        1. Defcons are for Kinnear
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Mark is not for sale if that’s what you’re thinking

        2. Jafooli
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Check eBay....

        3. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          He has worked his socks off and taken this place as far as he could. If the right offer came along I wouldn't begrudge him for accepting it.

          1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 23 days ago

            Exactly, had a great idea, then logical that you cash out... although I’m not sure who the natural buyer would be away from game operators. I wonder if it makes much money? Always seems like there’s a lot of non paying members (which is fair enough since so much of free and enough for most players).

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I hope so. A very nice chap and if it’s true, wow what an achievement.

      1. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Seconded +1

    4. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      😀

    5. Paganoi
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      So.

    6. noquarternt
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      How do you know?

    7. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Bit drastic Kane could blank.

    8. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      He should do now before it decreases in value imo. Quantity will never beat quality in my view and I don't think any of us who been playing 3 or 4 years plus can say the quality is anywhere near the same. The game just got too big I guess

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Quality of the site of of the FPL game?

    9. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Exactly what he should do. Get the maximum amount for it.

  5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    kane hat trick incoming

    the whole world cup theory is about to get thrown out

    1. Siggy in the Middle
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Plus August curse theory.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        will make him even more determined, will treat it look he's going for a golden boot

    2. LangerznMash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Might have to stick a tenner on Kane to score just to jinx him.

      1. In Like Flynn.
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Money well wasted.

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Ben Davies is the one who worries me. He was meant to be at centre back.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Nothing to worry. He is a winger 😉 Just hoping him to keep cs and assist a couple!

      2. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        No - only that is where he was playing in pre-season. It was clear that LCB would have been a game or two at the absolute maximum.

      3. POLSKA GOLA
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        I have Bavis, he may prove a good differential especially with Trippier not playing

      4. LangerznMash
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Conceded, worries over 🙂

    4. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      WC theory was thrown out last night.

    5. POLSKA GOLA
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Followed by a KdB brace tomorrow 😉

  6. Argyle1886
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Seems like we overestimated the WC effect!

    1. banskt
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      This. WC incoming. At this rate, Hazard will also start and all my plans are out the window.

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      just because they're starting doesn't mean they wont be tired after 60-70. Pogba was gassed by 70 yesterday

      1. Guru Mediation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        How did he go in those 70 mins? :-/

      2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Exactly. And he said so after the game.

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      There was far too much scaremongering going on.

      1. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Kane

    4. Oooof
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Hopefully means TAA starts for Liverpool

    5. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Poch scared of Newcastle so putting his best team out in hopes of scraping a draw.

  7. Piggs Boson
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Salah 54.3%
    Kane 31.6%
    Aguero 31.8%
    Aubameyang 20.3%

    No matter what you do, you're getting burned by 1 or 2 of these players.

    1. Warby84
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I have 3 just avoided Kane as he messed my season up last year

    2. jayzico
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Agreed. And that the one you don't own will net a hattrick ie Kane

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      But so is everyone else, so effectively, you're no worse off.

    4. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Got three.

      Worried about Kun.

    5. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Got all 4

    6. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Exactly. This “punish” stuff is just ridiculous. The game’s top players are always well owned and on average will score most of the time.

    7. POLSKA GOLA
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Going withiut high ownership players is always risky, at least DDG, Trippier and Maguire are not gonna score big gw1

  8. jayzico

  9. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    In starting to think Hazard will start.

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Been training since Monday. Very possible.

      1. PogChamp
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        I've taken a punt. Convinced he will get at least 45.

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Went Sanchez as a placeholder. Starting to think I should have just got Haz!

          1. PogChamp
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 23 days ago

            I think Sanchez will do ok. I got both. No Salah.

          2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 23 days ago

            I think Sanchez over Haz still made sense as a decision prior to deadline given Sanchez was going to play up front, was rested and had done well pre season. Nobody knows how Chelsea will be, new system, new coach... and Haz was looking to leave.

    2. jay01
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I’ve got hazard so he definitely won’t eveb get 5 minutes

  10. Warby84
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Oh and there DeBruyne as well, would not be overly surprised!!

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      well one of him or Silva will. David Silva, Bernardo's nailed 😛

    2. noquarternt
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      KDB's agent said he's stayed fit over the summer and wants to play the first game of the season.

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Yeah, he’s not interested in finals or big title deciders, it’s all about he first game away to Arsenal 😀

        What would his agent say? He’s been lazing around watching cartoons and eating KFC?

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      City have such strength in-depth they can genuinely rest players when they are not at 100%.

      How many other teams in the PL would regularly bench either Aguero or Jesus for example? They don’t have that option.

  11. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Come on Kenedy!

    1. Warby84
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      He’s my 3rd sub, but in for the Cardiff game next week

  12. Siggy in the Middle
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    My ML rivals have annoyingly good teams.

    1. jay01
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I hate my team now looking at my rivals.. even though it’s all template

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      FF Scout ML is never easy 😉

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      My ml rivals avoided WC players like myself. I'm safe if Kane goes wild

    4. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I’m the opposite. I look at their teams and it’s Comedy Central.

  13. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    KOME ON KANE

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I'm sure he'll win a couple of pens.

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Emphatic pens

      2. Hairy Potter
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Good job there is no VAR as Lascelles and Clark are both shirt pullers.

  14. banskt
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Scared of Danny Rose.

    1. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Why? He’s only little.

      1. banskt
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Everyone is back, including Vertonghen... Rose near the club would be a serious competition to Davies.

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Presumably Rose is going to play at some point if they didn’t sell him. It’s not like they have a huge squad.

  15. Siggy in the Middle
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Can't believe Mark committed to no premium forwards.

    1. Patch
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Team ID# or we won't believe you

      1. Siggy in the Middle

        8 years, 23 days ago

        4668

        1. Patch
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 23 days ago

          Dang that is a good id!

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I think he had weaker before he put in Zaha... didn’t once mention him and instead was going on about Mitrovic!

  16. DeathoftheParty
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Is everyone readily prepared for the Lucas Moura show?

    1. AIRMILES
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Yes, mate. Snap.

      1. DeathoftheParty
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        Nothing to lose, that lad. Everything to gain. Hope he scores 5 and becomes this year's Mo. £7m... Unreal.

    2. Ron_Swanson
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      gagging for it.

    3. Oooof
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Bring it on

    4. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      I am given he was in my team until Thursday!

  17. AIRMILES
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    I'm quite excited about seeing Lucas Moura play today. I expect big things of him this season. Unfortunately I'm an Arsenal fan.

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Don't worry. He's not very good. Just fast.

    2. banskt
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Just as I was going to buy Soldado (before the game), I remembered the lightning pre-season of Soldado.

      1. banskt
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 23 days ago

        fail.
        *going to buy Lucas.

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Had a good pre season.

      ok

    Fears of WC led to a premature WC.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Good that you are not knee jerking fast 😉

        • 9 Years

        I like ur picture 🙂

  21. Jayv807
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Everytime I see the Premier League matchday intro when Pep taps his finger against his temple, it's like he's warning me, "good luck guessing my lineup...."

  22. Infamy, Infamy
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Definitely not knee-jerking, but a hit for week 2 isn't too drastic is it? I used my first WC in week 2 last year !!

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      If you've made a clear mistake, nothing wrong with it

      But watch all the week's games first!

        Thanks. For sure I’ll watch all games first. Rethinking a few things based on player availability post WC.

      I don't think you should unless they're injured or suspended. You wouldn't transfer in a player for one Gameweek and then remove them for a bit when they blank so you should have faith in your current crop.
      There's a reason you picked them. 😉

    Feels like Levy is trying to squeeze the most out of the Spurs squad as possible. New stadium doesn't help financially right now, but does feel as if they are going too far with pushing the squad.

      They're a resilient group. And young. Don't underestimate them.

    During the game I sent email for reviewing Sanchez assist yesterday but I still dont get reply at the moment. Must be a fat guy who didnt know much about the assist rule sit front of computer, saw the penalty won and just gave Sanchez assist. They're not ready for GW1. In the previous seasons they replied me very quickly, during the game but not in gw1.

      Well seeing as you asked everyone to send emails they are snowed under....

        A shot which leads to a handball is considered an assist

      They owe you a reply, provided no justification for that assist.. I can guarantee you now they will be inconsistent if it happens again to someone else

      Do you think you would've sent that email if you had Sanchez?
