    Looking at doing Sane > Hazard. Feeling he will be the better long term option and confident sane will get rested this week

    Fabianski
    Alonso / VVD / Robertson
    Anderson / Salah / Fraser / Sane
    Wilson / Kane / Jimenez

    Bench: Hamer, AWB, Billing, Bennett

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I most certainly wouldn't be making that move but if you are certain sane gets rested and hazard is better do it

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

      im looking at that. i got rid of haz because he was dropping like a stone but hes going to be ess... important through the next 5-7 gws

      1. Frank Black
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I got rid of Hazard because he wasn't justifying his price at all.

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years

      Horrible move

    G2G? also not sure how to get in Kane or Salah.

    1. Super Silva Haze
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      You need to downgrade Sterling or Auba to get either one of them. Maybe both.

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

      id hold off on both kane and salah for now. haz would be more of a priority for me

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

    On WC, #Draft12, thoughts?

    Fab (Hamer)
    Lovren, Doherty, Kolas (Schindler, AWB)
    Son, Sterling, Hazard, Anderson (Stephens)
    Kane, Aubameyang, Success

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

      Starting XI very solid but weak bench could be a bit of a worry

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Get Kamara for Success imo, saves 0.3m

      1. Plymouth
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        And then Lovren -> Luiz?

        1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Sounds much better yeah

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

    Who to get as a Dilva replacement?

    A) Son

    B) Felipe Anderson

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      out of those maybe son but be prepared for a benching.

      Bernado is an under the radar pick, he should start with david out

    2. Earn your Spurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Anderson given recent scores and coming fixtures

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Depends on what you can do with the difference in cash. Im going B because it allows me to upgrade Lacazette to Kane or Kun in the near future.

      1. Winners900
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I'm wondering on this question too.

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

      can you get both?

      both are likely to play all through the xmas period

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

        Would involve moving Salah for a hit which I don't like the sound of!

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Did Silva to Anderson myself earlier. Talked myself out of getting Son as Lamela back now. I did look at Bilva too.

  7. Super Silva Haze
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    2fts.

    Arnie and Taa OUT
    Chicha and Bellerin IN

      1. Super Silva Haze
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I just don't think he is nailed with Monreal back into the fold. I may be wrong though. Do you know if he will play??

  9. Mithrandir, the Grey Pilgri…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    So.

    Need a Duffy replacement.

    Kol, Lovren, Balb are the three I had in mind.

    Was going Kol but tempted by worlds best defender now.

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

      I think Kol is worth the gamble.

      1. Mithrandir, the Grey Pilgri…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Has been my first choice. Will decide soon a Kol going up I think. Cheers.

  10. Daghe Munegu
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Kola to rise tonight?

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      50/50. Would make the move if in danger of being priced out.

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Shouldn't tonight but FPL has been way off

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

      tomorrow it looks like

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

    Kiko at 4.2 is a tempting enabler. Any idea how nailed he is now Janmaat is back ?

    Also, Lowe v Schindler ? A couple of weeks back I would have opted for the latter but now both are 4.4 & Mooy is out im thinking Lowe with set piece duty may just edge it.

  12. EgyptianKing
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts please? Seem G2G?

    Patricio
    Alonso, Robertson, Kolasinac
    Son, Sane, Sterling, Snodgrass, Hazard
    Kane (C), Jimenez

    Hamer, Kamara, Bissaka, Balbuena

    Cheers all!

  13. Nespinha
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    what should I do?

    A) Dsilva --- Sane/Eriksen
    B) Dsilva + Siggurdson --- Sterling + Pereyra (-4 hit)
    C) Think tomorrow, lose 0.1 on Dsilva

    1. Maddamotha
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      A

      1. Nespinha
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Sane or Eriksen?

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Erik.

  14. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Is TAA likely to be out this weekend?

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

      Best to wait for Klopp’s presser, but I would say he is out, yes

  15. Lisboa 1967
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    ranked 2K
    Made a howler of a move when I had a drink in me, not for quality of players but more about thinning out the rest of my team.

    I brought in Kolasinac for Wan-B
    Leaving me with a very expensive back 5 of
    Kola Alon TAA* Doherty Laporte

    With 0ITB what will be the next move for me ?

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

      A heavy back line isn't the worst thing. I remember the days of being 2k. And then Salah played against Bournemouth.

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

      might pay off so stick for this gw then look at it

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

      Eu tenho uma defesa como a tua e estou-me a dar bem!

      Vou vender o TAA e vou para um defesa dos Spurs ou o Kolasinac.

      Melhor valor neste tipo de defesas do que nos médios de igual valor.

      1. Lisboa 1967
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

      Apesar de, no teu lugar, TAA para um 4.2/4.3, possa fazer sentido, se confirmar a lesão.

    2. EgyptianKing

      This afternoon someone posted here some pic of him in the training session, but honestly I did not see any confirmation of him being fit (or out!) of this GW

    Lacazette owners, what are you all doing with him?

    I have this in mind:
    A) keep
    Or
    B) Martial and Lacazette to Son and Mitrovic (-4)

    What should I do?

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

      keep for sou BUR bha i wouldnt get in mitro for a hit. son is enticing tho

      1. ZAWAd25
        • 7 Years

        It’s only way I can afford Son. Get Chicharito instead?

  22. The Royal Robin

    GTG?

    Ederson
    Bellerin AWB Robbo Alonso

    Auba (V) Kane (C) Chicha

    Hamer TAA Kenedy Barkley

    1. EgyptianKing

      Great team in my opinion

    2. Modest Bob

      Average at best.

  23. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Wilson to Chicharito
    for my free

    1. Frank Black
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Most likely the same for me even if i got Wilson very early.

    Subs: Button, Kenedy, Success, Digne

      how did you end up with no city?

      Guessing you have no wc left? ngl i think Salah will do sick against Man u but id want Sterling over him in long term.

      Success has decent fixtures so I'd keep him atm. Maybe Salah, Kenedy to Sane, Mane but guessing not affordable?

          He got in good positions other night and is less rotation risk imo. Just fixtures which can be argued

            and form. and goals. and assists. and shots in the box. and shots on target. and big chances created. he wont get rotated much i give you that.

            sons got a few weeks till hes off to the asia cup why wouldnt poch run him ragged until then?

    VVD Alonso Doherty
    Rich Salah Andersen Fraser
    Jimenez Kane Laca
    (4.0, Diangana, AWB, Dunk)

    Have 1.9 itb and 1 FT. Could do Rich to Mahrez, Son or Alli but then bench is weak at. Or Dunk to Luiz or Davies and then Rich on bench

  27. Gríma Wormtongue

    Pick one to bench

    A) Richarlison MCI (A)

    B) Fraser WOL (A)

    C) Snodgrass FUL (A)

    D) Success CAR (H)

    As the selected community champion to take on scout picks, I have gone for a slightly different team. ;o

    ederson
    rudiger - davies - holebaps - laporte
    sane - son - pereyra
    kane - auba - mitrovic

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

      wolves have BOU
      West ham have sou
      not having fanderson or dockerty seems unwise

      the spurs double up is good and the right two
      wtfk about auba. what about kola?

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      You should go all in on differentials. Remember the point is to beat them by more points than any other community champion. Go big or go home.

      Kane, Auba, Davies bad picks.

  29. Super Silva Haze
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Mitrovic Or Chicha ?
