    People don't understand that during this period EVERYBODY is rotation risk.

    1. mad_beer ✅
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I need to rotate myself.

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Goalkeepers will disagree with you

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I am yet to see people posting with a fear of a goalkeeper being benched. This is understandable

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

      Apart from DDG

    4. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Far from true

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

        Maybe not literally EVERYONE, but aside from Ederson, Alisson and VVD, everyone at City and Liverpool is a risk.

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

      Kane won’t be rotated

    6. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Exactly, just need to ensure you have a good squad to cover it.

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

      My girl didnt agree

      1. Andriy Shevchenko is Back
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Hahah. Then I guess she's a keeper

  2. Bees4Lyf
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Milner playing right back and Fabinho in midfield. Means Fraser playing against Milner? Hmmm....

    1. M'arvin
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      To be fair you could argue Milner has been our best player this season.

    2. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Milner is beast.

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

      And the little Scottish wizard is hopping off my bench

      Milner is pretty solid tbh

    4. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Milner is an extremely competent FB.

      1. Jam0sh
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        This

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

      If I were Fraser I'd fancy my chances against TAA. Milner has the know how to make it very difficult for the Scottish Messi.

  3. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Switched put Wan and put Brooks in last minute and TAA isn't playing so could work out for me , I don't lose a cs if Brooks gets something and got Alonso first on bench

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Out*

  4. Make Arrows Green Again

  5. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    It’s a funny old game.

    1. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      game of two 'alves mate

  6. bialk
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Laporte comes for TAA then. First time this season I'm going without Robo. Hoping for a Bournemouth goal.

    1. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      If Laporte plays.. Hi Pep

    2. bialk
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Laporte was rested midweek.

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

    My bench is surprisingly good imo...Diangana, Alonso and AWB

  8. CAPTAIN CRESPO
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    I decided to WC at 11:15 today. Now the games updated and I can't remember who I picked. I think I just ruined my whole FPL season.

    1. The Royal Robin
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      That is a nightmare, why did you do that? You will not have gained on any of the price rises and you'll probably regret half of who you picked because you rushed.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      bad decision, surely you locked in a team 5 or so mins before?

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

      Look on the bright side, you're getting a new WC in three weeks.

    4. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Thats ok. Come Jan , another WC would be available.

    5. CAPTAIN CRESPO
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, regretting it now. Could have waited until next week but had no Kane, Auba or Man City attack and I'm top of my league by 2 points.

      I now have

      Sane, Anderson, Richarlison, Son
      Kane, Auba, Jiminez

  9. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What time does the game update by these days?

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

      Half an hour ish

  10. SB8
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Lingard or Siggy for this gw?

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      #TooLate

      1. SB8

        it is for daily fantasy game 🙂

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

          In that case go for Siggy

          1. SB8
            • 5 Years

            thanks!

    Shaping up to be one of THOSE game weeks

    1. MTPockets
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Indeed - already have 2 subs coming on

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

          Trent cameo likely though.

        2. Bucket Man
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Don’t think I will have two subs haha

      • JustPark
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        What week?

    2. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Chances of a Trent cameo?

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        if they are winning by a single goal he's likely to come on

      2. mad_beer ✅
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Let's hope 0.

      3. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        there is a chance but unlikely as klopp wanted to rest him

      Brought in TAA for Robbo, have Wilson.

      It's up to AWB and Bennett off the bench

        Hmmm, let me guess.. You sold Salah to fund Kane/Auba/Sterling

    5. aleksios
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      cant beleive i brought in TAA for Robbo.Alonso first bench though.

    6. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Thoughts things couldn’t be worse then midweek.
      Wilson in for a -4 for Arnie and Mane who I thought was defo out too.

    7. ILOVEBAPS
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Dang I missed the cutoff.

      Wanted to change Captain from Auba to Salah.
      Hope it doesn't kill my rank! As bad as it is already.

      1. Tsparkes10

        Auba capt is smarr

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

      Well, over the past few weeks I've got rid of Mane and Wilson, and have Brooks and Robbo, so feeling happy with the teams.

      Top it off I've got Salah, King and Fraser in my draft team, let's hope the game pans out favourably now.

      Knowing my luck, it'll be 1-1, Milner and Stanislas...

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

      Sat waiting to see if any of my ML rivals got in Auba or Laca...

        As long as chicha starts.. gr8. My punt. Hpe tonio gets some assists to chicha.

    11. Bonus magnet
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      A Salah captain haul won’t hurt a lot of people IMO

      1. LǝgleSs e|even
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Salah haul would be a great differential at this point. Regardless captain or not

      This is definitely my favourite time of the fantasy football week. Transfers done, team done, no one has failed yet, feeling hopeful of a good score.

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

        Yup... and anticipating ML rivals changes

      • 6 Years

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

        Wilson isn't in the squad

        Hamstring injury

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

      3. La Roja
        • 12 Years

      4. Jaok

    16. Syd.
      • 14 Years
