    Currently no liverpool attacking cover.

    Maddison & Walcott -> Mane and Diagnana a no brainier? For -4

    1. Rage Against The Raheem
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Yes mate, I would do that

    what's my best move this week guys? 

    A - Schurle to Deulefou
    B - Yedlin to Gomez
    C - Something else? 

    Wanna try and also raise cash for Success to Jiminez for coming weeks!

      Schurlle to Brooks? would help with Success to Jimmy money

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        good shout although his fixtures are pretty horrendous! but then not expecting much from anyone in this price bracket

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

          Can always rotate with Yedlin too!

      A

  3. Fpl Richie

    Options..
    A. Bench Maddison, lose value and play Jimenez/Doherty.
    B. Bench Mads and do Obiang to Diangana.
    C. Maddison to Richarlison. Long term move anyway.

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

        Yeah, he looked good at the weekend. It's a hard game for them but could see Everton getting a goal even if they lose.

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Ta. I'm undoing the mistake I made a few weeks ago! (Rich to Mads)

          Great name by the way!

            • 5 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Thanks! Yeah i made the silly error of moving out Rich instead of Maddy the week before his Brighton haul lol. One of those 50/50s. Rich looks best option at that price.

    1. Rage Against The Raheem

      Yes mate looks good to me, GTG

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

    Is Kenedy or Brooks too lightweight as a 4th mid?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No

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

      To start every week, probably. But with Doherty and WB fixtures improving soon if you’ll rotate it could work out

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

      I think so, Bournemouth fixtures are tough and Kenedy is not demonstrating any form to warrant inclusion as a 4th mid

    4. COYS Down Under
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Kenedy is, brooks not

    5. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I'd want rotation options with them, but yes. Kenedy has the fixtures and Brooks is just a good option anyway (ghastly fixtures of course).

    6. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Cheers

  6. MMN
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    2 FT, 1.4m ITB. Any thoughts?

    Pat (Hamer)
    Alonso, Robbo, Mendy (Doherty, AWB)
    Hazard, Mane, Bilva, Richa, Fraser
    Aguero, Arnie (Kamara)

    A) Hazard & Bilva > Salah & 7m
    B) Bilva > 8.9m

    I want Salah C this week but it's a case of Hazard or Salah for the next two (FUL, wat vs EVE, tot) - if I do sell, Hazard will come back in for GW14. Bought for 11m so don’t lose much value either.

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

      Pat->Fab/Ryan and roll the second ft imho.

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

        Don’t really fancy the Brighton or West Ham defence and Pat has Cardiff and Huddersfield coming up

    2. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Save or change keeper but that’s not really required for me

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

        Have 2 FT so nothing to save. Bilva only 4 goal involvements from City’s 50+ goals and assists this season. Playing too deep.

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

    maddy ->
    a. Shaq (just for the fulham fixture)
    b. Fanderson
    c. Kennedy
    d. Someone else

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      D

    2. The Mighty Hippo

      5 years, 5 months ago

      b

    3. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B for me
      But if you can field a full decent team, try and hold

    4. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years

      A

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

    Just decided to keep Maddison as his injury doesn't seem too serious. He will most likely be back after the international break.

    Anyone with me?

    1. Podge
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      What happened him ?

      1. Bielsa's Bucket
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Knee injury, him and Maguire ruled out of next match.

        1. Podge
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Ok ta

      2. Bielsa's Bucket
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        “(Maddison) feels something the day after the Cardiff game. It’s not too serious but he will not play this game. It’s his knee, damage in the ligaments behind his knee.”

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

      nope, regret not selling him for Richarlison last week when I was debating it, now it cost me 0.2m more and I missed out on last weeks points haul

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

        I already have Richarlison and can't really find a good option.

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

          Decided I’m selling to free up funds

    3. 1NVINCIBLES
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I'm selling for Richarlison or Fanderson.

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

        Already have Richarlison and Arnie and don’t want to double up on whm attackers

  9. Fletch365
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Considering their upcoming fixtures, would Mitro > Murray be a better choice than Mitro > Wilson?

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

      I’d go Wilson

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      wilson would still be my pick.

    3. Styles_X
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      i think wilson will get more points

    4. FPL Bielsa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson much higher ceiling than Murray as Bou score more than Bri

    Help appreciated - 2FT 0.2ITB

      1. Top Lad Dakes.

        Got 2FT though. Any minor moves?

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

          I’d roll it

          Doesn’t feel right to do it...I’ve done it this season

        2. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Billing to Diangana

    2. Rage Against The Raheem
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Save it if no changes needed. Someone made a good point yesterday that having made fewer transfers will be an advantage at the end of the season and give you a better rank over those with same points.

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        interesting

  12. Fpl Richie

    Maddison won't drop tonight right?

    Friday or Saturday we think?

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

      Definitely not tonight. Ask again this time tomorrow

    2. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Should be fine tonight

    3. Styles_X
      • 7 Years

      not tonight

    4. Fpl Richie

    quick vote to replace Schurle?

    A - Deulefou
    B - Brooks
    C - Kennedy
    D - Diagnana

    B gives me the cash to do Success to Jiminez next week which is appealing!

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

      B or C if for Jiménez

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

  14. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Would Salah and Kenedy to Mane Martial tempt anyone next week?

    Would be a hit. One could be Dilva maybe.

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

      All depends on Salah this week for me.

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      im tempted tbh.

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Taking salah out before Fulham for a hit!! I’ve heard it all

  15. Taking one for the team
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone else considering Milner instead of shaq as 3rd pool option? On pens, more nailed, gets the odd goal assist

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

      Shaq the sexier option, Milner the boring one

      1. Taking one for the team
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I get that but shaq 7m is more of a one week punt, Milner 5.6m and more reliable long term + frees up a bit of extra cash

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

      95% sure about doing Maddy to Milner tonight/tomorrow.

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

      Milner is not nailed, is he?

      1. Taking one for the team
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Minutes played in the prem this season:
        Milner - 773mins
        Shaq - 226mins
        Milner a lot more nailed

  16. Ozzy smith

      Keep Salah this week

    What do you think?

    Hart
    Laporte Alonso Mendy
    Richarlison Hazard Mane (c) Deulofeu
    Aguero Arnautovic Wilson

    Hennessey Doherty Maddison JazzRichards

    Start Laporte or Doherty?
    What to do with Maddison? Have 0.1 itb.
    Thanks.

    1. Footballprofessor

  18. Jässi
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    2ft 0itb:

    Maddison and Mitro to:
    A) Fraser and Arnie (already have Wilson)
    B) Martial and Jimenez
    C) milner and Arnautovic

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

      C

    2. Federico
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I did B, but I already had Arnie. I'd prioritize him over Martial, but not sure about Milner or Fraser.

  19. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Play Ings or Doherty?

    1. Lord.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Ings

  20. Dannyb

    Drinking and fpl don't mix, could someone kindly explain to me why I currently have Morata in my team?

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

      Not a bad buy tbh. Two goals at the weekend and will start at home vs Everton

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

      Brilliant!!

  21. Net Gains
    • 7 Years

    Any Watford fans on here?

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

      United but Watford are in my top 3 English sides. Fire away

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

    Popular transfer this GW appear to be:

    Mitrovic to Wilson
    Maddison to Felipe Anderson
    Maguire to Chilwell
    De Gea to Ryan

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yes, though it was Mitrovic to Arnie a few days ago.

  23. Styles_X
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    would you do maddy haz -> salah (c) kennedy for -4?

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

      Well I’ve taken hazard out for mane and plan to get him back for Fulham hm game..

  24. suvak88
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Is it to risky playing 4-3-3 and rotating Diangana and Murphy as 3rd midfielder?
    My team is:
    Patricio - Hamer
    Robertson - Alonso - Mendy - Doherty - AWB
    Salah - Hazard - Diangana - Murphy - Hojbjerg
    Aguero - Lacazette - Arnautovic

  25. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What's the rush to sell Maddison? Don't you have decent sub?

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

      He's injured and 7.0m ish is too much to have on a player who is not guaranteed to play in GW13

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

      Because he's not a good fpl asset

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

      Out of form and now injured, no better time to sell

      He’s been on last chance saloon for many so makes sense

    set on taking a hits the next 2 to 3 GW's. How does this - 8 look for GW13.

    Salah + Maddison + Success -> Sterling + Martial + Jiminez

    GW13 Team

    Patricio
    Robertson Doherty Azpilicueta
    Sterling Martial Mane Richarliaon
    Arnautovic Aguero Jiminez

    Foster F.Anderson Wan-Bissaka Holebas

      Not sure about Success -> Jiminez for a hit. The other two looks good.

    Just playing around. I won't, but I COULD do:

    Salah Fraser Billing Doherty --> Mane Martial Richarlison 3.9, giving me a rather tasting team (albeit terrible bench):

    Fab
    Alonso Mendy Robertson
    Mane Martial Hazard Richarlison DSilva
    Aguero Arnie

      Lovely, but a bench would be essential with those mids and Arnie's knee

    Best Maddison replacement? 8.4m to spend. Thinking either:

    Rich
    Pereyra
    Martial
    Anderson
    Lamela

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      consider Ozil too.

      rich tempts me most from those, though. close between him and martial but rich is more nailed

    2. FPLHaggis
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Martial looks a great differential

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Richarlison or Martial look the best imo

    4. 1NVINCIBLES
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Richarlison or Anderson from that list. Is Lamela nailed?

    looks like Salah will plummet after Fulham if this site is anything to go by
    after his hat trick against Fulham people will think differently...

      heck, if he gets me a hatty he's staying for the foreseeable future.
      a blank means he's out for sure though

        Blank means I give up

      I’m keeping and not letting go

    Who to replace Mitro & Maddison with?
    1 mdf + 1 fwd —> 13.6itb
    Currently considering Murray + Felipe Anderson

    1. Giles G

      Trying to make the same decision..

      Looking at Wilson & Rich at the mo
