    1. Mooster©️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He is fit enough, but manager might bench him anyway

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

      A lot of tabloid sources saying he's benched. That there might be sone tension between him and manager

    3. Champ
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

  6. making up the numbers
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Good day, everyone.

    A bit in a pickle on my transfers this week:

    Kane/ Wally - - - Salah(c)/ Wilson or King?

    Kun and Arne are my other forwards.

    Or save transfer till next week?

    Thanks in advance.

    1. TyroneGAA
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Seems to be a good idea

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Go for the transfers if you are willing to keep salah for 3-4 gws

      1. making up the numbers
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        That’s the idea,

        Wilson or King?

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

    Captain:

    A) Robbo
    B) Mane

    1. woody3260
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      A
      Is my vc for hazard c

    3. Gallas25
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I am in the same boat. If Robbo can get an assist and that clean sheet then it's golden. On the flip side if Liverpool concede in the first 20 mins then the captaincy is shot! What's your thinking? I currently have it on Robbo but It's hard to convince myself to captain a defender

  8. Nicoson
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Captain Lacazette or Aguero?

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    • 8 Years

    2 of my closest ML rivals capped firmino and mane, i capped salah, gonna be very interesting day ....milner 1:1 asist wijnaldum

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Ha, your rivals tell you who they are captaining, what awful 'rivals'.

      1. Silecro
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        We already made our transfers so its not big of a deal,was expected, i dont have nothing to change with knowledge of their captains and neither do they

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          I guess thats just the way you guys look at things, id never tell anyone I considered an actual rival a damn thing about my moves.

          1. Silecro
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            We take it serious also but it was mutual conversation like "you transferred in someone from pool eh"? So captain was pretty obvious from any of us....and they happened to be my friends so we talk bout fantasy on daily basis,and topic came out

    Morning all.

    I've used my free hit and gone gung-ho this week.

    Thoughts on the team?

    Allison
    Robertson, Alonso, Mendy, Bellerin, Holebas
    Salah, Fraser
    Auba, Laca, Aguero

    A few questions though:

    1) Aguero & Fraser or King & Sterling
    2) Mendy or Rudiger
    3) Generally is there any other adjustments you'd advise?

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

      1 B
      Rudiger has better CS chance than Mendy

  15. Styles_X
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Fraser (ful) over Siggy(mun)?

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

      Yes

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      yep

    3. Indio
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Not easy benching Siggy, but yes, play Fraser.

    4. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yep

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

    King flagged. Is he injured?

    1. SuperMane Returns
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson on pens?

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

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

        Hope either him or haz plays..only 1 good bench option

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Should be good.

  17. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts on bench order? Jiminez benched but kinda swayed by having Duffy:

    Patricio
    Doherty, Duffy, Alonso, Robertson
    Salah, hazard, richarlison, Maddison
    Aguero, mitro

    Hennessy, jiminez, billing, AWB

  18. Shaikh91
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Some help guys

    Ederson, Hamer
    Alonso, TAA, AWB, Bennett, benalouane
    Hazard, richarlison, hojbjerg, sterling, Schurle
    Aguero, ings, Laca

    0.7 itb with 1 ft.

    What do you suggest?

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

      Need to get some defence.

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I would downgrade richa and upgrade your defense

  19. Big Sam Time
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Any news on hazard? Anybody that as him whats the plan?

    1. Dickie1898
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Hold regardless.

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

      Keeping him in the 11.

  20. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    A Vardy and haz to Salah (c) and Arnie -4
    B Vardy to Arnie for free , mane (c)
    C save transfer, mane (c) Richarlison off the bench if Vardy is dropped

    Please help I’m lost....

    1. Indio
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      B best from those options I reckon - don’t remove Haz for a hit!

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years

    2. Rupert The Horse

    G2G? Saving FT to get Mendy in next week

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yep that looks strong.

  25. Snibal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    I’m on a WC and could use some advice. I’ve currently gone for:
    Ryan/button
    Robertson/Pereira/Doherty/lossl/awb
    Salah/mane/hazard/pereyra/hojbjerg
    Arnie/aguero/wilson

    My 2 main issues are that I’ve gone for a very expensive midfield and cheapish defense. The reason is that i think salah+mane will score big in the next 3. But maybe missing out on Chelsea and city defense will hurt me? Other consideration i have is to downgrade robbo to lovren/gomez and the upgrade pereira to luiz who i can then transfer to mendy next round.
    Any advice?

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I’d lose mane

  26. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Top of ML and 2nd-5th will all have Salah (C)

    Mane --> Salah (FT) to hedge?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Thats really up to you, quite a personal decision.

      1. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        You're right, ha.

    2. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah

  27. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Van Dijk or Rudiger/Luiz

    Worth doing Trippier to one of them benching him this week allows the funds for Wilson > Arnie next week?

    1. Kane Train
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago
