    maddison injured. who are you looking at to replace him or holding?

    1. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Sterling.

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Holding is a defender

      1. Demel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Good option at 4.4m though.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Id replace as it doesnt sound certain that he plays GW12

    3. pjomara
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      The defender's Holding, the midfielder's Cox

    I'm so desperate to get Mane in for this weekend and going forward. Is it crazy to take a -8pts for one of these 3 options? :

    Maddison, Richardson and Mitrovic out for:

    Mane, Gudmundsson and Kamara
    OR
    Mane, Barley and Success?

    1. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I think that is crazy.

    2. Typo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I do not like any of those moves

      1. FPL AXE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I shold maybe stated that this would change my formation and Doherty would play in a 4-4-2 leaving a dead striker basically.

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      rest of team?

      1. FPL AXE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        ............................Fabianski...................................

        ..Alonso - Robertson - Mendy - Doherty...............

        ......Hazard - Sterling - Mane - Gudmundsson?.....

        .....................Agüero - Arnautovic ........................

    4. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years

      Rich has v good home fixtures

      1. FPL AXE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        But I need to get in a Liverpool attacker.

  3. North_East_FF_Pro
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Maddison and Ings to Anderson and Success for a 4pt hit??

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

      Just maddo to fanderson

    2. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No

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

      DO NOT sell Danny Ings before his next 2 fixtures

      1. Demel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Danny Ings is a good season keeper.

    4. TKFC
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I think that’s worth it if you’ll be starting both players

      1. North_East_FF_Pro
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I can't afford Anderson without taking out ings

  4. Robson-Canoe
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Hey guys, I need some help - looks like I'm taking some hits this week.
    My team with 0 FT and 2.9 itb:
    Patricio
    Alonso Trippier Duffy (WanB Bennett)
    Salah(C) Hazard Maddison* Barkley* (Hojbjerg)
    Agüero Arnautovic Jimenez

    I'm considering the following moves, which one would you prefer:
    A) Maddison + Barkley > Mané + Kenedy/Brooks (-8)
    B) Maddison + Trippier > Mané + VVD (-8)
    C) Bennett > Mendy/Laporte/Robertson (-4)
    D) Maddison > 9.6 or below mid (-4)
    E) Any other suggestions?

    Cheers

  5. Football Heaven
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    A. Start success
    B. Sell madders for 7.0 mid (not Anderson)

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

      A

    2. Dosh
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Deeney is available now, helps your decision maybe.

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

    Can i get some advice on this team please. I can't see what move to make and have 2fts 0.3itb cheers.
    Fab(pat)
    RAM (doc Ben)
    Sal(c) Haz shaqiri kenedy
    Aguero Arnie Wilson

    1. All For One
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Would switch Shaqiri don't think he will play much

      1. XabiAlonso
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Think this week will be the week he starts

    2. TKFC
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Kenedy to someone like Josh Murphy or Brooks, then roll the other transfer

      1. XabiAlonso
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Patricio to Ryan for a longterm move? removes Wolves double up

      1. XabiAlonso
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers mate

  7. All For One
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Schurlle > Gudmundsson?
    got 6.1mil for midfielder

    1. the Penman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, that’s an improvement.

      1. All For One
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Cool,any other alternatives?

  8. Dosh
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Need some input here please!

    A. Sterling -> Mane
    B. Sterling + Mitro -> Salah + fodder
    C. Sterling + Barkley -> Mane + Willian
    D. Sterling + Barkley -> Salah + fodder
    E. Don't sell Sterling

    1. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Keep

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

      I’m not selling him.

    3. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I'd keep Sterling, I desperately want to get him in asap

    4. Sterling Malory
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      E

    5. Dosh
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      If it was just this week? Scared to go without Liverpool attack vs Fulham. Got burned vs Cardiff.

      1. Champagne supernova
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Sterling can score well this weekend he is on fire

    6. FleckyT
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      E

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

    Many out there with both Salah/Mane like me?

    1. umerlfc
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      0.1 short of doing Maddison -> Mane 🙁

    2. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yep

  10. JackQualt
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What is the Maddison injury?

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Minor ligament damage to his knee

      1. Skid Vicious
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Sounds like he'll be tested to me. Knee ligaments are tricky injuries.

  11. Monkey Hanger
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Wellbeck getting gas and air. Looks bad.

  12. Teomi
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Who to start?
    A. Camarasa (Brighton H)
    B. Richarlison (Chelsea A)

    1. Sterling Malory
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

  13. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Just seen Maddison’s injury. Having only recently sold Richarlison, I feel it might be worth bringing him back (with Cardiff on the horizon).

    Who do you think is the best Maddison replacement?

    1FT 2.4m ITB
    Ederson (Hamer)
    Alonso / Chilwell / TAA (Wan-Bis / Bennett)
    Hazard / Mane / Sterling / Maddison (Hojbjerg)
    Arnie / Wilson / Mitro

    Thanks!

    1. umerlfc
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Just as you said, Richy

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

        Cheers. He’s already punished me once for keeping Maddison instead of him, so I wouldn’t want it to happen again.

    2. TKFC
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Richarlison’s the safe bet, Anderson if you fancy a punt, he could have had four last week.

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

        Thanks, that’s interesting

  14. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Maddison and Mitro to Richarlison and Jimenez with 2FT?

    1. umerlfc
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Looks good enough to me

    2. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Depends - you already got Arnie?

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        yep, got him in last week

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

      Sounds good. I’d be tempted if I had 2 FTs.

    4. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wait till Evertons presser. Rich had an injury issue last week.

    5. Kuzser
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

  15. umerlfc
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Who do you expect to score more points in GW12?

    A) Richarlison - CHE(A)
    B) Mendy - MUN(H)

    1. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

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

      B

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

      Bendy

  16. Monkey Hanger
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Auba on. Wellbeck off.

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Could limit Auba's minutes at the weekend and more generally if Welbeck is out for a long time. Will need a EL striker and Auba could be that man.

      1. KLOPPTOMANIA
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        EL?

        1. KLOPPTOMANIA
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Ah got it now

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

        only 2 dead rubber EL group games left after tonight do, Auba not needed for them imo

      3. Lord.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Arsenal will be done with the Europa League in competitive terms until Feb after tonight.

  17. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Keeping TAA i think :)... H-Odoi to playing 4.5? Then Vardy, Schurlle to Arni, Rich next week??

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Looks a very good plan to me. All those moves look worthwhile upgrades.

    2. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Makes sense.

  18. Bambi
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Maddison -->

    A) Martial
    B) Richarlison

    1. Egbunike
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. TKFC
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      A

    3. xtina
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

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

      Ideally both. But b if only 1

  19. R.C
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Why has Auba come on so early in the game?

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Welbeck looks to have picked up a bad injury

    2. R.C
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Welbeck injured?

    3. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wellbeck stretchered off.

      1. R.C
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Damn. Hope Auba starts against Wolves though.

  20. barracuda
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Is Richa's ankle all good to go or?

    1. Fingerspitzengefühl
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Rumours say he didn't train recently, but I'd wait for the presser tomorrow to get more info

  21. KLOPPTOMANIA
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Mitro to Arnie?

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years

  29. firstade
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Current leader has pretty much nailed his FH and TC chips on gw2 and gw10. Not always worth waiting for the double gameweeks it seems. Of course the guy has been extremely lucky as well.
