    2FT Mitro+Madds >> Jimenez+Martial??

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

      100%

    2. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Good moves.

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

    Do we think Salah, Mané and Firmino will all start on Sunday?

    1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Y

    2. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yep

    3. Leeroy357
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Firmino nailed on as didn't start vs Red Star. Expect to see a 4-2-3-1 with those 3 and Shaqiri attacking, Fabinho holding with 1 other (Wij most likely, Keita is want to really attack)

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

    Mitro likely to fall tonight?

    1. Numb
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      FFix says he is

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

        Cheers

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Falls are less predictable though

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

            He doesn't seem close on FPL statistics.

  4. FPL Maldini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Is this a good transfer?

    Lascalles and Maddison —> VVD and Pereyra

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

      Looks alright

    2. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Lascalles should be alright and I wouldn't bring in Pereyra now.

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

        Why not?

        1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Because he's more of a home player and he has Liv & City home in the next five.

            1. Ambrosiana Inter
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 5 months ago

              Noticed u made 18 transfers, seems like u have an easy trigger like me , maybe just a bit more comtrolled( I ve done something like 28 )

              1. #FPLBhuna
                • 7 Years

    2. Numb
      • 9 Years

      I have him in Sky - thinking of captaining.

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        You must be feeling numb..

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          I’m deadly serious!

    3. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Ahhahahahaah

  6. TerryVenables
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Lamela a good punt for Maddison?

    1. Numb
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Not in my world

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      In 3 weeks, maybe. tough time to bring in a Spurs player.

    3. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      If you wanna punt then try with Shaq.

  7. abaalan
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Who to bench this GW? Bench one:
    a) Richarlison (Che A)?
    b) Gudmunsson (Lei A)
    c) Fraser (New A)

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      toss a coin. A on paper, but maybe B.

    2. Gooner97
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B

    3. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      A.) Since he's a doubt for the weekend.

  8. FPL_Hazards
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Mitro > Jiminez
    Maddison > £10.4m

    Have Hazard, Richarlison, Mane and Ward, stuck who to get, sadly too far short for Sterling

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

      Mahrez?

  9. FDMS All Starz
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Which combo will score points in the coming GWs?

    A) D.Silva & Salah

    Or

    B) Sterling & Mane

    1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      B.) But it's just guessing.

  10. Red Rock
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Have 2 FTs and no Liverpool attack, which is best:

    A) Sterling to Mane
    B) Lacazette & Kennedy to Success & Mane

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

      C get Shaq

      1. Red Rock
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Richarlison to Shaq works if he’s defo out

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

          why would richarlison be out?

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

      B

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

    Who is more nailed Lovren or Gomez?

    Thank you for your help

  12. Gooner97
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Ederson
    Robbo Alonso Duffy - AWB Jonny
    Hazard Sterling Rich Maddison** Hojbjerg
    Kun Arnie Mitrovic

    0ITB

    What would you do withs this lot? Surely Mitrovic (to Wilson or Murray) has to go, but I was also thinking to sell Maddy

    1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Since you have 0itb you would need to do 2ft to upgrade Maddison. Mitrovic should be sold. There is plenty of mid's in good form but you can only go from Mitro > Wilson/Jimenez.

      1. Gooner97
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Wilson is a no brainer, but I'm also tempted about Murray.

        1. Kolarov Fpl Legend
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Wilson is better imo.

  13. XabiAlonso

    Best defender up to 4.4 that isn't Westham or wolves to replace Bennet thanks?

    Anyone know if Maddison will drop tonight?

    1. FPL_Hazards
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No chance

    2. jpb333
      • 9 Years

      Does look like it

    3. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years

      Mope

  16. EL tridente
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Iwobi as a 4 or 5 mid? Could get a lot of minutes now thats Welbeck most likely is out for a long time

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

      Never seems to do anything unfortunately

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        he is a different player this season. Emery's coaching is doing wonders
        every time he comes on looks a real threat

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

      Think he's cheap enough to punt on if the bench is good enough, not excited over it though.

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Rather have Xhaka

  17. Emp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    We reckon Mahrez will start this weekend?

    1. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Man of the match

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Him or sterling, 50/50

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

        Well that sucks since I have both lol, I'd actually say it's 50/50 between sane and him imo. Sterling will play

  18. The Nuttman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Ederson
    Pereira, Mendy, Alonso, Robinson
    Sterling, Hazard, Pereyra
    Firmino, Vardy, Mitrovic

    (Hamer, Camarasa, Westwood, Jonny)

    0.2itb

    Any ideas welcome as to what to do.

    1. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Robinson -> Robertson 😉

  19. Bruno Bruno!!

    Is the registration for the FFS Cup still open

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      yes

  20. Weak Become Heros

    Success wont start this weekend now Deeney is back will he?

    1. Ambrosiana Inter

      Now u realise u shat on your hand lol

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        What a charming reply.

        1. Ambrosiana Inter
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Soz

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      unlikely, but he's your 8th attacker, right?

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Him or Billing!

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          oh 😆

          maybe he'll start

          1. Weak Become Heros
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            The price I pay with Haz, Salah, Mane, Aguero and RAM!

            1. FPL Forward Thinker
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years

              4-4-2 for you

        2. Ambrosiana Inter
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          I say nothing

    3. The Nuttman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I'd err on the side of no.

  21. Carcaju
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Patricio - 4

    Mendy - Luiz - Doherty - Bennet - Wan Bissaka

    Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison - 4.3

    Aguero - Arnautovic - Wilson

    1 FT, 0 itb

    With the Maddison's news, I have to get him out. Best replacement? Felipe Anderson or is a West Ham double too much?

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      ive gone for Fraser. but thats part of long term planning.

      in you case Anderson looks best for the price bracket as a single transfer.
      you could also wait a week and do what all the cool kids are doing (Salah --> Mane/Sterling, upgrade Maddi e.g Mahrez)

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

        I wanted to save the FT, but with Maddison's injury I don't think I can postpone it...

  22. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Jiménez or Ings? And why? 🙂

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

      Jimenez, Huddersfield, Cardiff and Newcastle in the next 5 seems pretty good.

    2. jpb333
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Ings is better at scoring

    3. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Ings because you'll need triple Wolves defence for HUD+car.

    4. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Jimmy because Ings plays for Southamption

    5. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Jiménez because Ings has played Man City already.

  23. pablo discobar

    Toffeeweb reporting Richarlson missed training.

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      not so bothered if Richi is out short term. potentially benching this week anyway

  24. IRBOX ⚽
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    This might finally the GW that bites those with early transfers and especially hits.

    Maddison OUT, Richarlison potentially OUT (I hope not as a Toffees fan).

    Furthermore the ‘bandwagons’ of Barkley and Success could well and truly be over making it a painful week and lots of auto-subs for some

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

      My early transfer was selling Maddison.

      1. Ambrosiana Inter
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Nice

      2. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I sold him last week 😎

      3. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Before Burnley? Interesting.. but worked out well for you!

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

          It was just the pressure of price changes - if I hadn’t have moved on Saturday night, would have been priced out of the Maddison to Anderson move.

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Haven't we seen auto subs most weeks? Robertson not playing, Hazard missing out, Arnie, Holebas, etc.

      Seems to be we need a strong 1st sub most weeks.

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Lots of peeps taking hits to move for martial (easily blank) Barkley (possibly bench) even Madd’s to rich

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

      Triple pool attack which includes Robertson

  25. HD7
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    No Money in the Bank

    Maddy to Anderson? (though I will have 3 WHam players)

    Fab
    Mendy Robbo Alonso Duffy
    Salah Richa Maddy* Hazard
    Aguero Arnie

    Subs: Button, Kenedy, Success, WanB

  26. Gooner97
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Those without LIV attackers, who are you captaining?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Have Salah and Mané. Salah(c).

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I feel the question didn’t really take for you

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          😀 completely read that wrong!

          I'd go Hazard if I didn't have a Liverpool attacker. Sorry Gooner97!

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Hazard vice, so it would be him.
      Aguero isnt a bad option at home to the Utd defence who have conceded 17-18 goals (not sure) so far

    3. The Nuttman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Probably Hazard, be tempted with Robertson.

    4. stat
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Hazard vs Everton
        If he scores he's almost guaranteed 3 BP

      Guys, talk me out of triple capping Salah please...

      With Chelsea and City also having decent(ish) home games I'm really tempted to stick it on Mo with Hazard or Aguero as vice for back up should any shock Salah resting occur.

      I know the consensus is to use the chip in DGWs but really how often do teams get two great fixtures let alone the player play 180 mins (and return in both)? I'm not chasing in my mini league so feels like it might be an unnecessary risk to use it now but equally Salah ownership is relatively low now (down from 50% anyway) so it feels like there's an opportunity to strike.

      What are you chaps doing?

        yeah, go for it. No team in the Prem plays more open than Fulham.

        Liverpool havent been all conquering of late.
        Salah could be rested (probably not though).
        Save for double game week, or a true differential pick (e.g. Kane SOU)

        Dilva

        I've sold Dilva for Martial, but have plans for the extra 1m. I'm also freeing up a Man City spot for Mahrez, Sané or Sterling.

        Didn't enjoy selling Merlin though.
