    Been playing this for years and still don’t know the answer.
    First on my bench is Hojberg, since he didn’t play does it skip to next on my bench? Cheers

    I always manage to break hazard when I buy him.

    Got to laugh really. 1 point and a no show after weeks of double digits.

    1. ZLATAN'S PONYTAIL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      thats no good but based on his current form, he's still a great buy. keep him, you'll be vindicated

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Same here, got him on a wc 2 weeks ago.

      1. tafrère
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Same, and I ditched Mane for him. But still a great score this week.

    3. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Could you buy Wilson please. It would really help me out.

  3. arndff_

  4. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Palace cleansheet and an Alonso masterclass please. 😉

    1. MattysFantasyFooty
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Palace clean sheet is wishful thinking

  5. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Guendouzi! There’s a nice surprise. 3rd on my bench. All 3 coming in to play 11.

  6. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Success coming off the bench, not too bad

  7. CRO KLOPP
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I have Trippier to come for Hazard, don't know what to expect tbh

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'll swap you for only have 10 starters at most.

      Robbo haz Arnie hojberg.

      2 illnesses seems particularly unlucky.

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I have Haz and Hojbjerg,and almost bought Arnie and Robbo,for a bit but went for save in the end

      2. Collie01
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Ive the same 4 out. Hoping Tripp or Mendy dont miss out too.

    2. pstokes2010
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      1 point likely,if you’re very lucky maybe 4.

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Assuming he starts. (Which he prob will)

        1. CRO KLOPP
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Then it's AWB time but I expect him to start

  8. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    could Barkley be a thing? I know he starts as he was rested midweek but could he be above Kovacic in the pecking order PL-wise?

    1. the grinder
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      absolutely considering him

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      IF he has a good game this week defo!

  9. Mikey44
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Imagine playing your wc and only getting 10 players out (Robertson Arnautovic Hazard Holebas). Not cool

    1. Blue Moon Rising
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      What happened to Holebas?

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Clean sheet without him.

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      At least three of those players will serve you well over the next few weeks though.

    3. OLEgend
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Same here

  10. SPorting
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    And suddenly I'm on 65 with Laporte, Alonso, Rich and Kun to go.

    I'm also not humble.

    1. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Snap! (although swap Laporte for Trippier)

    2. Costa in Wengerland
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Suddenly 69

    3. Typo
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Hate when that happens

  11. Blue Moon Rising
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Mitro - Time to go.

    1. Blue Moon Rising
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Arnie favourite to replace. Fixtures are ridiculous.

    2. Mic
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

    3. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      selling before hud? you're asking for more pain surely

  12. Babit1967
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal fans is Iwobi expected to start every week? At 5.5 he looks good to make up the numbers

    1. Cresscendo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Right now the inside left of midfield is his to lose.

      The upcoming fixtures ain’t great tho. And he has struggled with end product in the past.

  13. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Feel sorry for the dude who had Haz (C) and Rob (VC). That's really unlucky...

  14. Elfozzie 42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    That feeling when you have 15 points in the bag before a ball is kicked!
    Hoping Aguero Alonso and now RIcharlison and Tripper can add to the tally!

    1. Shah G
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Mane VC?..

  15. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Mendy Aguero and erm Richi and AwB to play

  16. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Do you smell it?

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      what did you EAT. MY LORD

      1. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        No no.I am ok.Alonso's goal is coming.

  17. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    CP keeping a CS would be such a huuuuge rank boost for me with no Ars players and 2 CP def...

  18. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Success.

      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

    2. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Kun and Sterling well capable of scoring off the bench but yeah wouldn't be ideal.

    3. flynner25
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Best team will start for city. Mendy, sterling and kun will all play.

  21. Kszaq
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Question.
    I played 3-4-3 : Robertson and Hazard didn't play. Frazer and Trippier first on bench. It means that both of them will jump up to fill the squad?
    thanks

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      yeah

    2. Old Wulfrunian

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 9 Years

        I don't have Jesus.

    3. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Fix your team link.

  23. altan8797
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    robbo surely to play vs arsenal but what about vs fulham in you opinion? (assuming no bans or injuries)

    1. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Think he's had his rest now

      1. flynner25
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Agree

  24. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I am not asking for apology or anything but I hope now that my post will not be abused.

    As someone said on my comment earlier, I posted 5 mins after the transfer deadline not 5 mins before to influence transfers as I had a solid source but not guaranteed info! So I felt would be harsh to post before final subs could be made.

    I only have one sources in footie and its via Chelsea TV so I can only provide info from there!

    I didn't affect anyone only provided what we now know was a very correct piece of information.

    Over and Out!

    1. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Ok

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      What you going on about?

    3. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      tf are banging on about.

      1. Feloh
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        are you**

    4. Warblers
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      What?

    5. Mysterion
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Even if you actually have a source, surely you wouldn't have expected anything but abuse posting whatever you did 5 mins after deadline..?

      What are we meant to do with that info whether it's legit or not 😆

    6. Balls of Steel
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Any further Chelsea team information will be taken very seriously in the future, thank you 😉

  25. JoeSoap
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Played WC WK9 2 get rid of non players & have a bench & end up with Robertson, Hazard, Knockaert & Hojbjerg this wk. Love this game.

    1. OLEgend
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      W.C to transfer in Kane and Hazard in GW 8. Removed Salah and Mane and doubled up on defence TAA and Robertson, brought in Holebas and Deeney as well and they returned a combined 0 points for 3 weeks so transferred Deeney to Arnie for a hit this week, and he didn't play either.Sigh!!

  26. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Best move here? Planning to WC for GW15/16:

    A) TAA -> Chilwell/Digne (bench Doherty)
    B) Wan-B & King -> Mendy & Kamara (4-4-2)
    C) Ederson & TAA -> Fabianski & Mendy

    Ederson
    Alonso, Balbuena, Doherty
    Salah, Hazard, Richarlison, Maddison
    Aguero, Arnie, King

    Stek, TAA, Wan-B, Hudson
    Bank 0.2m, 2FT, WC available
