    Any reason why I shouldn't bring in Vardy?

    1. ameenkw
      8 years, 26 days ago

      None .. should be good for next few gws

    2. Rik Waller
      8 years, 26 days ago

      He's a racist chav

      1. Boss Hogg
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Harsh.
        I don't think he is either of these things.

        1. Rik Waller
          8 years, 26 days ago

          Defo chav. Racist harsh yeh, but that whole "jap" moment did not look good

    3. riccorich
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I've been thinking the same, but decided to wait until he performs. Those fixtures are looking great..

    4. GianniBanani
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Only reason is that cheaper options are performing, but it's not a bad move

  2. Marvin.
    8 years, 26 days ago

    If you've got Salah, Mane and Aguero who do you captain? I'm having last minute doubts.

    1. Meinhoff
      8 years, 26 days ago

      El Kun

    2. ameenkw
      8 years, 26 days ago

      salah playing home with gd stats

    3. GE
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I’m on Salah now, but can change anytime

    4. Teomi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Kun - new contract and after loosing in cl I think city will be brutal

    5. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Salah

    6. Brazooka
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Go Aggy.

  3. GE
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Captain who?

    1) Salah
    2) Aguero
    3) Mitrovic
    4) Zaha

    1. FPL Daniel
      8 years, 26 days ago

      2

    2. Marvin.
      8 years, 26 days ago

      You'd be brave to go with 3 or 4. I'm wavering between Salah and Mane at the moment.

    3. Jealous Viper
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Salah

    4. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      1 or 3 if you're feeling fruity

    5. Brazooka
      8 years, 26 days ago

      2. Maybe 4.

  4. Rik Waller
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Best cheapo GK pair in wc in your opinion?

    1. SUK MATIP
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Ederson Allison

      1. Rik Waller
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Did they both drop by a mil overnight?

    2. Pass
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I am on Palace - Fulham

  5. DR0GBA
    8 years, 26 days ago

    A) Peltier > 5m defender (-4)
    B) Start Camarasa (no hit)

    1. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      B

    2. Critical Observer
      8 years, 26 days ago

      B

  6. Pacer.
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Own Salah Hazard and Kun and am completely torn.

    Do we think the best course of action for a weekend where I don't severely regret decisions is Hazard (C) knowing if one of the others haul then I'll still see points

    1. Victor6359
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I’ve gone for Salah, great record against Southampton and I think hazard gets most of his hauls at home.

      1. Eytexi
        8 years, 26 days ago

        This

    2. ESilva23
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Have the same issue and biggest challenge in my mini league has Hazard but neither of the others so have been tempted to captain Haz for safety sake all week. I'm putting the band back on Salah though and hoping this is the get right game to make good on all his positive stats so far.

  7. Make United Great Again
    8 years, 26 days ago

    And it’s SALAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

    He seals his hatrick.

    1. Meinhoff
      8 years, 26 days ago

      That's so last season

      1. Make United Great Again
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Today it begins again

    2. Volley127
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Crisis! What crisis!!

    3. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      This is the dream

  8. Weasel51
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Mendy + Ings >> Trippier + Wilson (-4)..

    Worth a hit?

    1. riccorich
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Depends on your bench..

    2. SUK MATIP
      8 years, 26 days ago

      stretch for Vardy if you can

    3. Sergeant Garcia
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Nah, only do Mendy > Trip

  9. Genji3lade
    8 years, 26 days ago

    is B.Silva > Sterling (-4) madness?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      8 years, 26 days ago

      No need

    2. Mackans
      8 years, 26 days ago

      It is. Bilva scored midweek..

  10. Zizou
    8 years, 26 days ago

    I have fraser already so wilson/King as my 3rd fwd or ings/jimenez

    1. WayneKumar
      8 years, 26 days ago

      ingz

  11. Deulo10
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Planning on having both Fraser and Richarlison by next GW. Who to get first this GW?

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Fraser

    2. Mackans
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Fraser, See How Richa performs.

    3. jernej93
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Fraser

    4. stat
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Richarlison. Talk is he might start up front instead of Tosun... also he's up against Bellerin. Arsenal are not going to sit back.

    5. Old Wulfrunian
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Richarlison

    6. WayneKumar
      8 years, 26 days ago

      richie

    7. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Same situation here and went for fraser

  12. Old Wulfrunian
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Should i start Holebas or Mendy->Trippier(-4)?]

    1. Deulo10
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I would start Holebas

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 26 days ago

      I’m starting Holebas

  13. DAVESAVES
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Mkhi to Richarlison or Ramsey?

    1. Deulo10
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Richarlison

    2. jernej93
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Richy or Maddison

    3. WayneKumar
      8 years, 26 days ago

      ramsey could be a differential

    4. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Rich

  14. barracuda
    8 years, 26 days ago

    1st sub

    A- Pedro

    B- AWB

    (mendy bench wankery)

    1. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Awb

  15. jernej93
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Which transfer to do?

    Pedro - > Maddison
    Kamara - > Mitrovic
    Cedric - > Alonso

    Or play free hit? I have Ings, Mendy, Kamara and Pedro.. I could end up with 10 players

    1. WayneKumar
      8 years, 26 days ago

      i made the pedro - maddi move today

  16. FPLShaqiri
    8 years, 26 days ago

    My midfield
    Salah-Mane-Fraser-Neves-Bilva

    I can swap Bilva for a -4 to any mid up to £9.2m.
    A) Pogba
    B) Richarlison
    C) Dilva
    D) other

    1. Cadenza
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Why would you swap Bilva now? Was City's best player in the midweek, and should start again. DSilva just as likely to be rotated imo.

      1. FPLShaqiri
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Thanks for the advice! I guess I got a bit fixated on him not starting and hadn't considered that he was perhaps the best player midweek. I kept in the end and did Mendy>Pereira for -4 instead. My bench is Neves,Bennett,Kamara so really didn't want to end up with two of them coming in. Good luck with the gw

    2. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Definetly not worth a hit to get rid of Bilva this week

      1. FPLShaqiri
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Thanks, kept in the end

    1. Brosstan
      8 years, 26 days ago

      more like Lunch Club

  17. Kellz86
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Not the most important I know but play 2 for Draft?

    Tosun
    B. Silva
    Rose

    1. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Definitely Bilva. Probably Rose with him.

    1. Fitzy.
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Beaten by a nose... 😉

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 26 days ago

        HEH HEH

  18. Wolfman180
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Is Aub worth captaining over Salah or Aguero or is that just madness?

    1. SUK MATIP
      8 years, 26 days ago

      put on a stray jacket...

      1. Wolfman180
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 26 days ago

        That would stop me from changing anything so probs not a bad idea

    2. Alonso The Great Midfielder
      8 years, 26 days ago

      im giving him a chance too

    3. Jealous Viper
      8 years, 26 days ago

      A good differential but not sure its worth the risk this early

  19. Paanmonkey
    8 years, 26 days ago

    That’s it !!!! I’m done ! KUN it is for the amrband ! cheers guys

  20. Bushman
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Start Hart (BOU) or Foster (ful)?
    I’m leaning towards Hart for save points. Thanks

    1. bluesone
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Hart imo

  21. Nüno Vippan
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Yedlin or Dummet? I havent watched Newcastle this season yet.

    1. jernej93
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Yedlin

  22. RomeluStormzy
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Mane, Aguero or hazard (c)?

    1. Paanmonkey
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Kun

    2. bluesone
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Aguero

  23. Shultan
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Why are people thinking mendy will be back soon?
    Last season pep was coy bout sterlings injury & i remember losing out by keeping him

  24. Alonso The Great Midfielder
    8 years, 26 days ago

    ditch neves or masuaku(sub fodder) for richarlison?

  25. Wayne8
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Should i bring in
    A - Maddison
    B- Dilva?

    1. bluesone
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Madd

  26. mundian
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Hen
    Luiz Bissaka Robbo
    Haz Bilva Mane Fraser Pereyra
    Aguero (C) King

    Fab Arnie Mendy Peltier

    Would you change substitutes?

  27. Genji3lade
    8 years, 26 days ago

    People expecting B.Silva to start?

    1. Kellz86
      8 years, 26 days ago

      That's my confusion right now, seems he's been preferred but no one is safe from Pep rotation. I only have him in draft but considering playing Rose over him.

  28. bluesone
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Replacement for Mkhi;
    A)Maddison
    B)Richarlison,
    C)Or other suggestions?

    1. Eytexi
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Richarlison or fraser
