    2. Miguel Sanchez

      You're gonna start Pope (SOT) over Heaton (tot) right?

      Yes sir.
      Iv been a 343 man most seasons but not liking the mid priced forwards tbh so maybe midfield 5 is way to go?

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Looking at Barkley Trossard combo myself - but for me it's almost certainly an either or. Potter switches a lot apparently and Chelsea is an unknown. Be horrible to have to switch both early.

        Do like Auba Mo - it's such a logical combo - really don't know why it isn't common. They combine so well going forward after week which hardly looks disastrous.

    need your estimated nailed rating out of 10 for the following players please:

    stones

        Zinc more nailed than Stones? Who will replace stones?

    Martial & Wilson (in a 3-5-2)

    OR

    Montoya & Aubameyang (in a 4-4-2)

    Any thoughts much appreciated...

    1. camarozz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B I think.

      Iv been an Vardy for wks now but going with Auba instead.

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B only just for me

      Martial could be gold but last season just puts me off - OGS didn't trust him at all. No competition really makes him more likely.

  4. Michael Gary Scott
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Watford. Great fixtures. Pereyra late return, Deulofeu struggeling. Deeney not the goalscorer. Gray on borrowed time? Hughes? Doucoure?

    1. Rihanovic
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I'm on Gray for one week punt only
      What do you think???

  5. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    I'm still assuming that Rico plays, and Lundstram is a doubt. Can anyone put me right??

    1. Rihanovic
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Both nailed IMO.

      1. Gentle_Turks
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        I thought there was now a doubt over Lundstram?

    2. How I met your Mata
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Don’t think lundstrum is nailed although Rico I think will start

      1. Gentle_Turks
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        That's ow I see it but still many people sticking with Lundstram.

  6. SADIO SANÉ
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    having real trouble picking which Bournemouth players I want....thoughts on this?

    Heaton (Woodman)
    VVD Coleman Rico (Montoya Gibson)
    Salah Sterling Perez Trossard (Donck)
    Kane Wilson King

    1. Rihanovic
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I thought of both forwards, but then after 2 games you'd have to lose at least one if not both, so I'd say only Wilson.
      Having said that, I'm currently on King, Fraser and I've for 1st two games only.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        yeah, guess I'd take one out and keep the other - but no idea what to do

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Think it comes down to which you want midterm? One you lose in 3 presumably.

      King is better midterm than short term as that allows pens to kick in. But Wilson for me is the better pick overall. he also allows you to reach Haller Chelsea Everton and the one who everyone is ignoring but may regret Jim.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        yeah, I much prefer Wilson and there could be some good downgrade opportunities

  7. Osman
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    hello,

    Vardy, 4.5 mid, Sterling ---> Kane, 7.0 mid, Bernando/Siggy

    1. Rihanovic
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Kane, Siggy and Fraser.

      1. Osman
        • 7 Years

        Cheers

  8. Jakub

      Matip or Gomez... Who is going to start along VVD?

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        I think it will be Matip but most I asked earlier said Gomez

      2. Puncheon Guly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Gomez. Klopp loves him

      3. UnitedFan
        • 8 Years

        Matip imo

      1. Is the Cancelo transfer going to change your approach to city defenders?
      2. Is the insecurity over city defence worth a rethink to rotating 4.5s/putting money into other positions?
      3. Talk me into or out of Barkley/Trossard.
      4. Would Luiz to Arsenal open up any opportunities for gw1, or wait and see?

      Go.

      What are people's thoughts on Greenwood?

      1. With such a high % ownership he is at risk of a price drop.

      2. But of the 4.5m forwards he is probably the pick of the bunch.

      He's likely to be 3rd on my bench so is it better to try to conserve value over picking the best available option for someone who is rarely if ever going to be earning you points?

      1. Confusedleedsfan
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        It's a risk lots of us are taking

        • 8 Years

        if utd dont sign anyone which looks likely I see him getting a lot of gametime.. not starts now yet.. (unless they go 433)

        Im happy to gamble on him...

        will be people be using early transfers to change their 4.5m striker?............. I doubt it
