    Chances of KDB starting next week barring injury in UCL?

    1. Pep says
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Heads or tails job

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years

      KDB assists the assister.

      1. Pep says
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Around 20pts behind Sterling last season. Only. 9.7m is a bargain if it becomes clear he is nailed as he's been in the past few seasons

    3. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      50/50

    4. Yoshioka
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      When KDB eventually proves he's fully fit, he'll become as closed to nailed as it is possible for an attacking City midfielder to be.

    Did not think 46 (-4) would get me a green arrow - but here we are. Good week to have a bad week, I guess.

    1. Pep says
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Look at average dude. You've had an above average week. Not amazing though. It's just one of those weeks.

  4. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    I had one of the best scores in my mini league and only had very, very small green arrow in OR. Hmm, looks like my mini league is just so bad...

    Anyone think Richarlison limping ? Did not look happy and looked like Siggy consoling him. Perhaps not what it looked like.....

    1. Yoshioka
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Thought the same.

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

        Please happen.

          Although this is obviously to build my hopes .. Before he plays and bags a brace. The higher you rise the harder you fall

            😀

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      As a non owner and irrational Richarlison hater, I hope this is true.

    3. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years

      Beware the injured golfer

  6. Numb

    I’ve got Bennett first sub if Richarlison fails to start 🙂

    1. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Let's hope he starts! I've got Wan-Bissaka, so maybe with Tosun playing up front they'll manage to keep the cleen sheet!

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

      Feck that send him out there for the whole game limp or not so he can stop Tosan coming on.

      This way i get my Cedric 9 pointer off the bench. 😉

    Foster and Patricio are my GK. I'm considering moving one (likely Foster) down to a 4.0 keeper for funds. However, the run of three games for Foster looks good so i'm conflicted. Have Wolves vastly exceeded expectations such that a regression is expected soon?

    Doing so would give me enough to upgrade either Knockaert to a 7.2 (richarlison for example) or Fraser to a 7.5 (probably still Richarlison) or add 1.7 to my forwards of Mitro, Vardy, Ings, which makes Vardy to Lacazette or Ings to Arnie an option.

    Thoughts on doing this? Should I do it for a hit? SHould I do it over two weeks? All my players have favorable fixtures in GW 10 so I'm in no rush.

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      sell Pat

  8. Stinglikeabee
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Are Kane and mane likely to drop tonight?

    Looking at getting them out for Laca and salah

    1. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Mane yes, Kane won't.

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        ^ this

        1. Stinglikeabee
          • 8 Years

          Thanks all

  9. The Cherry Picker

    58 points with Maddison to play. What would be the ideal result during Eve vs Cry to not drop in OR?

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Lol just an excuse to let people know you have 58 points .

      1. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I drive a Golf GTI and I would say the classic 1-1 with 'Who the **** are they goalscorers/assisters....'

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      1-1 involving own goals from Hennessey and Richarlison.

      1. noahzark22
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        and assists by Coleman and Townsend

    3. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Rich red and wan own goal

    4. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      417 - 288

    5. thischarmingman
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      My other car is a Ferrari, and I'd say a million goal for maddison would do it.

    6. The Cherry Picker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      That actually wasn’t meant as a brag. Not my style. When the GW was in progress I was certainly expecting a fall in rank but no one got a high score. I still don’t understand how 58 has put me 70k for the GW so far?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Low scoring week, looks like a GW rank brag 🙂

    7. nobwak
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Overall rank 135. When is Lacazette's birthday?

    8. The Cherry Picker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Hahahaha TM, you know that’s not my style.
      FYI his BDay is the 28th May!

  10. Pique and De Bruyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    The rate my team thing says i’m going to get 390 pts in the coming weeks, pretty decent right?

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Rate my Team is about as useful as Andy was on Scoutcast.

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        So it’s no good then lol.

      2. Rash
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I may to watch it to see what you're referring too.

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

      AI is over rated.

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

      The same as Mystic Meg's segment before the National Lottery draws years ago.

    4. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Has anyone ever tracked how accurate it is
      It was rubbish for me last season

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        There is some guy on here who plays using a script that recommends players based on the RMT tool. Havent seen any updates from him lately though, so I suspect its doing poorly.

        1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          I bet he is fun at parties

        2. Sgt Frank Drebin
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          I did the same as an experiment. But I sometimes forget to make transfers or change captain, also don't exactly know how to make it to tell me best transfers... Nevertheless this team was 60k OR before this GW, so not that bad I would say.

      2. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I only use it for checking highest predicted scorer for every GW for captaincy options. It's pretty accurate for this.

      3. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I know it’s all based on projections and not entirely accurate, was just wanting to know how useful it might be, from the responses i gather not very.

    5. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Do you want to share your team 😛 ?

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Team at the moment is

        Patrício / Button
        Alonso / TAA / Laporte / Doherty / AWB
        Hazard / Salah / Rich / Maddison / Fraser
        Aguero / Arnautovic / Mitrovic

        1. Pique and De Bruyne
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Want to swap TAA for Robertson though.

  11. Woy_is_back
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Richa hatty please 🙂

  12. wildnothing
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    What would you do with this team the coming weeks? Any big issue? Trent?

    Alisson 4.0
    Doherty Mendy TAA Balbuena AWB
    Kenedy Hazard Salah Sterling Murphy
    Agüero Mitrovic Jimenez

  13. ‘Tis the Season
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    What are the chances of walker being rotated for the spurs game? Pep tried a new system with effectively a back 4, not sure if that means walker is now benched..

  14. fedolefan
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Been waiting 9 game weeks for a Tomkins goal. Come on now.

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      cue og

  15. czechow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Does anyone know why TAA has been dropped and/or whether he will be benched from now on?

  16. BEEZUS
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Alonso OR Tripper out for Mendy OR Robertson?

    1. quayle99
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Trippier to Robertson for me

  17. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone monitoring Iheanacho?

    He’s quietly delivered 5 attacking returns in his last 6 appearances. Another potential bargain bucket forward to go along with Ings, Jiminez, Wilson, King.

    1. Yoshioka
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      He's in my peripheral vision for sure. He's playing in the hole where Maddison was playing - in fact I kind of sold Maddison because of him as I don't fancy him as much from a wide position.

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

      I already got him and Robertson in this week for a hit!!
      Bear in mind Gray is to come back so that could impact his minutes but I not sure if it will or not.

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

        My front 3 for next week is Mitro Wilson and Iheanacho
        With son on the bench til I can make him KDB the week after.

  18. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    playing as striker doesnt suite richarlison. not intelligent enough i feel

    he need to get on wing and cut inside

  19. Ghost Gooner
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    I'll get him once Mitro's fixtures turn soon

  20. Jelder
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Mane - stick or twist?

    Possibly going down in price again (already lost .1). Points or pounds?

  21. Floodedowl
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Hennesey out for another budget set and forget...
    Mat Ryan (good fixtures) Fabianski (good fixtures) Patricio (Tough fixtures but solid form)
    What are your thoughts guys???

  22. tucaoneo
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    What is the matter with Knockaert? You guys talked about him all the time. I almost bought him after the West Ham win. And now he sat on the bench while Brighton got their first away win in, what, forever?

  23. quayle99
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Play one

    A. Højbjerg
    B. Kante
    C. Bennett (doubling up with Doherty)

    D. Kante + Mitrovic > Pereya + Jiminez? for - 4

    Or transfer one to who?
