          You've spelt my name wrong. 😥

  5. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    I need a decent captain this week and since Kane and Aguero don't look like the best of choices this week, as well as Hazard being possibly injured and out for the game I need to transfer someone in

    A) Kane > Auba/Lacazette and captain them
    B) Kane, Richarlison > Ings, Salah (c)
    C) Anything else?

    Cheers

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      B but with Iheanacho instead of Ings

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        he does have nice fixtures but is he guaranteed to start and play 90 every week?

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          No, but he is this week and he's only 5.5m.

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I'm debating which one of Mane or Robertson to give the armband to

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Mane has been terrible since GW4 so who knows, but it could be his breakthrough GW

        1. Collie01
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          I know, I brought him in on WC GW5

        2. _Ninja_
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Blanked in his last 4 league games but 3 of those were Spurs, Chelsea and City

      2. Fergus1107
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I've plumped for Robbo and mane VC

    4. AMP
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I went with Wilson

  6. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Play:

    A) Doherty (bha)
    B) Richarlison (mnu)

    1. Holmes

      a

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      B. Am worried about benching Richarlison this week. I think he may be one of those that tries to impress against the bigger clubs.

    3. Shatner's Bassoon
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I’m going Doherty.

  7. tokara

    1. Holmes

    4. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      No-one is going to advise that, but it can be worth it for Salah(c) and bring Hazard back in next week or later.

  8. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Which one to upgrade for a -4 to Mane?

    A) Kenedy

    B) Fraser

    C) Hold. No hit needed.

    1. Miguel Sanchez

  11. Gomolon
    • 11 Years

    Worth taking a hit this week to bring in a better captain choice?

    Ederson

    Alonso / Robertson(C) / TAA

    Hazard / Maddisson / Richarlison / Fraser(V)

    Kane / Aguero / Mitrovic

    Hamer / Bennett / AWB / Guendouzi

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      no

    2. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I have a very similar team and considering bringing in Salah by getting rid of Kane and one of Madd/Rich if this helps

  12. saladhands
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah, lad. He will be starting upfront today.

    1. tm370

          He's retweeting something and says no sources mentioned, and you think that's worth a mention as fact? Deary me.

    Riding me free tranny this Gw.

    Will Bendy beat Schlupp.

    Questionable.

  16. Dannyb
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Vardy and Richarlison to iheanacho and De Bruyne -4 worth the hit?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      can work

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      looks decent to me

    3. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      De Bruyne not yet!

  17. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    If before deadline confirmed that Shaqiri starts would you use free transfer to get him in for BSilva to double alongside Salah?

    1. MMN
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Do you think he'll start regularly?

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        He could if new formation a success. If not I would expect sufficient points from Cardiff game to move him on at net gain. Or still have WC

  18. J T

    Fab
    Alonso TAA Doherty Mendy
    Maddi Sterling Hazard(C) Mane

  19. Federico

    Richarlison -> KdB?

    1. MMN
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Who do you think will get dropped for KDB?

      1. Federico
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I don't know, but he'll surely get into the team, no?

    2. Holmes

      y

    3. MMN
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably minutes managed for the next couple of GWs I imagine. 30s and 60s perhaps.

      1. Federico
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah, you're probably right. I'm considering getting him in for Southampton, but then again Richarlison has Brighton up next.

        I'll keep money ITB and see how this GW plays out for my current squad.

  20. andrinho
    • 10 Years

    Drop 1 to bench:
    a) Bellerín
    b) Richarlison
    c) Duffy
    d) Luiz

  21. R Whites
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    On a WC. Welcome thoughts on this? Too much cash in defence...?

    Lossl
    Mendy - Alonso - Robertson
    Hazard - Salah (c) - Fraser - Schurrle - Maddison
    Aguero - Arnie

    (Rui P, Bennett, Kiko F, Quaner)

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      weak bench, fraser to cheapo and feed the bench

    2. william prunier
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Kiko out for diop/zaba/Newcastle def unless jannmat is out long term?
      Brighton double gk

    3. MMN
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Probably prefer Alonso > Luiz and upgrade bench, especially with rotation and injuries increasing as we enter November. Perhaps Fab over Lossl too. Rest looks good, you could even do Fraser > Pereyra if you fancy with the cash.

  23. Ponduskongen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Hazard (C) Sterling (VC), too risky or should I play safe with Robertson (VC)?

    Thanks in advance for valuable advice

      Yes, but not much more than 4

    Start:

    A) Doherty (bha) (have Patricio)
    B) Richarlison (mnu)

    1. JWilson3
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Richarlison

    2. Shatner's Bassoon
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Richarlison in that case. Wouldn’t double up away to Brighton.
