A dismal Gameweek 9 for many (but not all) Fantasy Premier League managers has left a bad taste in the mouth and given us plenty of issues to debate ahead of the coming weekend.

Manchester City’s players continued to be rotated at Selhurst Park, Teemu Pukki (£7.0m) blanked again and many premium options failed to deliver.

You may have your own Fantasy-related quandary and our Question Time form is now open for your submissions below.

We have put together another panel of managers to help provide some answers, with some familiar Fantasy Football Scout users here to respond to your questions.

WHO’S ON THE PANEL THIS WEEK?

David Munday – Editor of Fantasy Football Scout.

Applebonkers – A seasoned FFS face who boasts three top 10k finishes including an overall rank of 514, despite having a managing strategy he describes as “constantly fighting differential tourettes”. Likes to find a flaw in the seemingly untouchable and a ray of light in the stigma players.

Twisted Saltergater – A valued community member with ten years on FFS and 13 seasons of FPL under his belt, there’s nothing that TS hasn’t seen before.

Pirlø’s Pen – An dedicated and consistent FPL manager who hasn’t finished outside of the top 50k in the last four seasons. Carefully managed his Community team to become the Fantasy Chilli Bowl Champions in 16/17.

    So Aguero hatty is locked for next gw 😉

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      7 years, 5 days ago

      The next will give him the outright record, locked with Shearer on 11.

    According to Jack Sear:

    TAA has not trained with the group today

    1. Squeakybum99
      7 years, 5 days ago

      He has a virus. Won't play midweek.

      1. ALegendJ
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Thanks for the info

      2. golden skulltula 69
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Hi. What about Matip? Will Lovren play tomorrow?

        Thanks!

        1. Squeakybum99
          7 years, 5 days ago

          No idea about Matip. Wasn't pictured and maybe hasn't recovered since getting turned by Rashford 😛

          1. golden skulltula 69
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Ok, thank you!

            1. Third Eye Vision
              7 years, 5 days ago

              Matip is out midweek.

  3. gergin
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Nor, bour, BHA, shu, AVL...

    ...are MAN UN big enough trap to ignore their players?

    1. Jullepuu
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Currently yes

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      I'll probably take a chance on Martial/James. United go on smaller streaks every season when you least expect it, and if you miss out on the first haul then that's them pretty much done as differentials.

    3. ritzyd
      7 years, 5 days ago

      I'm thinking Maguire as an Ota replacement as a punt

    4. Le Bluff
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Only Martial worth considering. And would like to see him get through a couple of 90 minutes first.

  4. Miguel Sanchez
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Any doing here? Boly (new) seems a shame to bench

    Pope
    TAA Pereira Lundstram
    Mané KDB Mount CHO
    Aguero(c) Wilson Abraham

    McGovern Boly Rico Dendocker 1FT 0.2 ITB

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Triple Chelsea attack - I’m thinking the same, can you convince me?!

      Not a lot you can do - it’s Boly Vs Lund

      1. Kay317
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        I've ended up with mount and CHO coz couldn't bring myself to drop mount. Both can return and both great value. Tammy is just one of most owned players.

    2. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      We have pretty much the same team, apart from I have Salah instead of Mane and Fredericks and Cantwell instead of Boly/Donkey. I feel good about triple up on Chelsea attack. You confident in aguero cap? I'm currently on him too. If I had Boly I think I'd go for him over Lund next week.

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Hopefully he starts tonight, gets a couple of goals and is brought off at around 60 mins.

        1. Kay317
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Still doesn't mean much if he does though. Jesus' form has thrown a spanner in the works

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            7 years, 5 days ago

            It has and think Pep is beginning to phase Aguero out to give Jesus more time but I wouldn't want to miss out on Aguero at home in either of the next two home EPL games.

  5. TheDragon
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Any suggestions what to do with this lot?
    2FT 0.3 ITB

    Ryan Button
    TAA, Soyuncu, Ota, AWB, Lund
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, Mount, Cantwell
    Pukki, Abraham, Greenwood

    Cantwell, AWB, Pukki and Greenwood are all players I’d happily be rid of.

    A) Cantwell & Pukki -> CHO & Jota a crazy move?!
    B) AWB -> Rico and use the cash to upgrade Cantwell (to who?)
    C) any better ideas?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Ota to 4.5 and Cantwell to CHO work?

      1. TheDragon
        7 years, 5 days ago

        It does. You’d rather lose Ota than AWB (I could do that move with either)

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          7 years, 5 days ago

          I don't think Ota is gonna come back in the league games. Too much of a liability, Stones back and Fernandinho looking competent.

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      7 years, 5 days ago

      A has its issues, wondering how nailed is Jota with Cutrone/Neto in the mix. Perhaps Ings instead?
      B looke good. Like Rico as a pick.Got enough for Cantwell->CHO?

      1. TheDragon
        7 years, 5 days ago

        I have cash for Cantwell -> CHO if I downgrade AWB to a 4.7 or less

        Is triple Chelsea attack too much though - I desperately want rid of Cantwell though

        1. Kay317
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Can't see many better options than CHO at 6mil. And wouldnt drop mount, especially if you've owned him a while coz he's great value.

          1. Differential C (Mark)

    Is this all time rank website proper?

    1. Epic Fail
      7 years, 5 days ago

      What do you mean by proper?

      1. XABI 15
        7 years, 5 days ago

        like is it true? Says I am top 800 but not sure how that is calculated. Interested to learn the calc behind it

        1. Epic Fail
          7 years, 5 days ago

          It's been around a while, I'd say it's a legit tool for what it is.

          No idea of the calculations behind it but recent seasons are taken into consideration more than historic seasons.

          1. XABI 15

            thanks for that info!

      18k for me if it does

    3. Christina.

      must be. still not 4k for me.

  7. Link
    7 years, 5 days ago

    I don't have Lundstram.

    A. Tarkowski > Lundstram you stubborn fool.
    B. Heaton > Henderson you crazy maverick
    C. Save you boring toad

    Heaton - 4
    TAA - Soy - Fredericks - Tarkowski - Rico
    Salah - Sterling - KDB - Mount - Saka
    Vardy - Wilson - 4.5

      In situations like this, you just have to ask yourself, what would Princess Zelda do? i think she would get Lundstram in

      1. Link
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Eh she'd sit there being useless and waiting to be saved as usual.

            7 years, 5 days ago

            You're absolutely right. I've denied it long enough - only Lundstram can save

      A

    3. TheDragon

    Who is doing a worse job this season, Emery or Pochettino?

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      factoring in that one manager has a several players that dont want to be there and had to go a season without bringing a new player in

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Poch is just fed up. Em has no reason to be fed up yet. So Em

    3. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      C) Ole

    4. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Yes, Em has no excuse so him.

    5. iL PiStOlErO
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Ole

    6. gergin
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Silva

    7. Differential C (Mark)
      7 years, 5 days ago

      With the squad they have, you'd think Arsenal would be playing a lot more entertaining football then they have at the moment. Imagine having players like Auba, Laca, Pepe, Oezil and not able to hit a barn door in several "easy looking" games in the league.
      Emery, hands down.

      Spurs are shocking, but they've been beset by injuries, player discontent, behind-the-scenes brawls etc. Cant blame Poch as much as others are.

    8. Brosstan
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Fair play to EMery for trying to bring a load of youngsters in I think, but hes chopping and changing too much, needs to settle on his best team.

      Poch has lost it.

      Ole is the worst, dont let the Pool result fool anyone, United will be back to being trash against Norwich

    9. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Emery. Poch's players are just letting him down. Emery keeps putting the wrong ones on the pitch with no sense of cohesion or a game-plan

    10. bench boost for every gamew…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      tactically i like Pochettino better as you can understand his logic, that cannot be said about Emery. He is too fixated on the other team and sets up both his tactic and set up after it, and like yesterday shown, he fails at it because you don´t put 3 no-creativity whatsoever in midfield and then try to battle it out with SHU with the likes of Xhaka and Willock..

  9. Martin66
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Best 5.5m or under midfielder at the moment for forthcoming fixtures?

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Worst bracket. Take one 4.5 bench fodder instead and use the rest of the money to upgrade your team. 5.5 mids hardly get any returns, almoust the same as 4.5m

      1. Martin66
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Got a headache with it & you have confirmed this, as trying to bring Aguero in for this weekend as head to head opponent has him, dependant on Pep roulette as always. No player sticks out at 5.5m ha

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Traore?

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        7 years, 5 days ago

        but Il Pistolero's answer better still

      2. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Or this if you have to

      3. Martin66
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Was thinking of him to be fair

    3. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Saka maybe given he is only 4.5 but it’s a terrible price range

      1. Martin66
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Could be the best shout mate

    4. Reckoner.
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Can't answer your question RE the upcoming fixtures but from GW 12 onwards:

      El Ghazi

      1. Martin66
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Agree with that from there when fixtures turn, on form

    5. bench boost for every gamew…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Cantwell the most obvious, Noble, Hendrick, Jorginho, take a pick, not one that screams out but Noble for me, but you rely on pens for most.

      1. Martin66
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Yeah Noble with his pens or Zaka is a maybe

  10. iL PiStOlErO
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Hey folks need some help. I am dying out here (worst rank ever - currently sitting at 3.3 mil). What to change here? Any suggestions?

    Pope Button
    TAA Soy Guilbert Lund Rico
    Mo KdB Son Maddison Cantwell
    Auba Tammy Connolly

    0.0 itb, 1 ft

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      You got a wildcard?

      It doesn’t look that bad but I’d get rid of Son as Spurs look in disarray and Cantwell is a disaster if you are starting him ever week.

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Don’t have it, used it in GW8. That’s the problem. The team is not bad but just keep getting red arrows. I need to climb up the ranks and don’t know if its better too stay patient like untill now (it didn’t get me anywhere) or really start taking hits and risks. So maybe Son and Cantwell out for che mid and Martial?

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Son down to CHO and do something with the change next week. I was about 3 million a few weeks ago, a couple of decent weeks can make a huge difference.

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Cheers, hope it will start better for me also. It’s time.

      2. Fulchester's New Centr…
        7 years, 5 days ago

        In fact, as Dragon says, use the change this week to beef up Cantwell for a hit. Double Chelsea mids?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          7 years, 5 days ago

          or Tony M for a punt.

        2. iL PiStOlErO
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Have Tammy and afraid triple is a little too optimistic. But if you have to choose now- Mount or CHO?

          1. Fulchester's New Centr…
            7 years, 5 days ago

            CHO; the coming man.

            1. iL PiStOlErO
              7 years, 5 days ago

              Like that - Son and Cantwell bye bye and Tony M. and CHO hi. Can’t be worse then now. Cheers

    3. XABI 15
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Son to CHO, Connolly to Vardy

      Can you afford that?

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Wanted to do it but don’t have enough money. Can only do Vardy and one crappy mid (5.0 or less).

    4. Brosstan
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Way too much money held up in a few players. There's a ton of value everywhere this season so players like Son arent worth it if it means you have to play Cantwell or Connolly. Soy is a very bad pick despite the bandwagon on here.

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Tnx. Just not sure if it’s better then to wait for the next gw and then do -4 with 2ft or do -4 this gw with 1ft.

  11. XABI 15
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Kane to Aguero or Vardy?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Vardy and doing something with the change.

    2. Epic Fail
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Aguero for his 2 hattricks in the next 2.

      1. XABI 15
        7 years, 5 days ago

        I still cant believe he only got 1 goal vs Watford 🙁 these next 2 fixtures are so enticing

        1. Brosstan
          7 years, 5 days ago

          He wont start both, thats the problem

  12. N0035234
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Stephens (Birghton)

    Auba - Aguero

    OR

    De Bruyne

    C.Wilson - Vardy

    Heart says go with the latter as all points drivers. Head says have faith in premium strikers even taking the hit with Stephens making up the numbers.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      2 > 1

  13. Brosstan
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Why was this a dismal week exactly compared to other weeks? It was low scoring but just as many people as every other week made OR gains and losses.

    1. XABI 15
      7 years, 5 days ago

      There was a post on twitter earlier showing that of the top 20 bookies favourties to score a goal this week only 2 did. I am guessing most teams have at least 6-7 of those players so was a very dull week as no one really got any G+A

      1. Brosstan
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Just sounds a tad biased that the week is dismal just because premiums did poorly. For managers who havent doubled or tripled up on premiums, which is a perfectly fine strategy, it was probably pretty good. I can hazard a guess what kind of players are in the article writer's team..

    2. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Because most of the ‘good picks’ scored 2 points and lots of ‘alternative’ picks scored 6-8 points.

      This season seems to be all about whether you get the Rico/Kelly/Lund points or you bench them (I’ve benched c40 points of them so far - I’m very good obviously)

      1. Le Bluff
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Yeah this is a good point. The main point swings at the moment tend to be between those who get the Rico/Lundstram points and those who have them as 3rd sub.

    3. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Between post international 'fatigue' and players rested/limited minutes pre CL and EL games I think some works were spannered.

    4. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      But the ones making the gains were not the ones round here for the most part.

      1. Brosstan
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Elitism then

        1. GreennRed
          7 years, 5 days ago

          You can't post Eli#e here. Best to say anti-casual 😉

          1. Brosstan
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Tbh its the casuals who have 3 premiums in their teams, they are just lucky it has worked out so far 😉 Dismal week for casuals on here, sure, but the pendulum is turning

  14. mdm
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Which option:

    A. McGinn -> KDB and Cantwell -> Dendo (-4)
    B. Pukki -> Auba

    Thanks!

    1. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      A

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      A

  15. Brosstan
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Why are so many people bringing Mane in? Form isnt great and neither is immediate fixtures (yea Spurs are bad but relatively speaking they arent great right now)

    1. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Ssshhhh! He's playing for the team at No. 1, Salah not hitting heights we're used to, let them buy away.

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Relatively speaking, Liverpool are a lot better than Spurs atm. Spurs have just drawn to the worst side in the league at home and should have lost. They were also completely outplayed away to Brighton. Liverpool's home record is very good. Mane has scored 3 goals in the last 4 home games he has started.

    3. iL PiStOlErO
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Chasing points. In a few weeks it will be the same with Mo again .

      1. Le Bluff
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Not really chasing points. Would've had a goal on Sunday had the ball not brushed off his hand. Looks a better player than Salah this year.

        1. iL PiStOlErO
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Agree. But switching between them is chasing points. You never know with this guys

          1. Le Bluff
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Yeah true. Not worth doing Salah > Mane, IMO.

            I'm considering Salah > KDB (have Sterling so doubling up for City's next 2 fixtures). Then looking to get Mane in after the City game.

            1. iL PiStOlErO
              7 years, 5 days ago

              Thats what I think yes. Salah to Mane is just not the move I would make except Mo gets badly injured or blanks 50% of games. Choose one and he will return for sure, they are beasts.

    4. Le Bluff
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Looks like Liverpool's best attacking outlet, and has been this entire calendar year.

      Passes the eye test much better than Mo too. Mane seems to be much more central, compared to Salah who's spent a lot of the time out on the touchline.

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 5 days ago

        This. A big sample size of several months show that he is doing better than Salah

      2. Salah’s Sonnet
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Can all change in an instant, best to pick one and stick, simple.

          Oh agreed. Salah > Mane (or vice-versa) is too sideways.

          But I think you can go without 'Pool attackers for the next few and double up on KDB/Sterling instead. Then bring in Mane/Salah a few weeks down the line.

          1. Salah’s Sonnet
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Could very well do that, i have KDB & Ota for now but may do Auba > Aguero later this week depending on his mins and stuff. Would be hard losing KDB so may just stick with him and Salah anyway.

    (RP from previous article)

    Champions league ABC

    Pick one:

    A) Parvard (olympiacos)
    B) Robertson (genk)
    C) Meunier (club brügge)

    Pick a captain

    X) Aguero (ATALANTA)
    Y) Lewandowski (olympiacos)

    1. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      B
      Y

      Why not TAA?

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        7 years, 5 days ago

        He is out with illness.

        1. GreennRed
          7 years, 5 days ago

          You're a gentleman and a scholar. Just shipped him out for Meunier before deadline. Hopefully Trent will be back for the weejend. I think you told me about your domestic CL league before. Best of luck in it.

    2. TheDragon

      B
      X - if you think he will start

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        7 years, 5 days ago

        He sure will. Got rested in the PL. Would be crazy if he was benched.

    3. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Are you on WC?

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        7 years, 5 days ago

        It's a domestic fantasy CL game where there is no such thing as a wildcard. So no 🙂

    4. St. Joseph
      7 years, 5 days ago

      CY

  17. TheDragon
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Best 4.7m defender or less?

    1. GreennRed
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Lundstram

      1. TheDragon
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Who isn’t Lundstram or Soyuncu

        1. GreennRed
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Lascelles. A mad one, granted, but Bruce can inly have them dogged at the back as tgey're poor up front and a slim chabce of attacking returns.

          1. Dthinger
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            7 years, 5 days ago

            YES! I said this last week! A bargain at 4.4!

            1. iL PiStOlErO
              7 years, 5 days ago

              Guilbert at 4.4 is great also

    2. Le Bluff
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Rico.

      1. TheDragon
        7 years, 5 days ago

        I really want to get Rico but worried that as soon as I do he will lose his place.

        How secure is he?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Started them all since Daniels got injured. Cost quite a lot when they brought him in.

        2. Le Bluff
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Seems relatively secure. Lloyd Kelly is competition but Howe does seem to favour Rico atm. A clean sheet on Saturday will have done Rico no harm, and he's providing a decent outlet on the left.

          1. TheDragon
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Thanks - v helpful 🙂

  18. Sadio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Who would you start of these 3:

    A) Soyuncu
    B) Lundstram
    C) Tomori

    1. _Gunner
      7 years, 5 days ago

      have the same 3, starting A and C

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Lundy.

    3. iL PiStOlErO
      7 years, 5 days ago

      I am starting Soy but afraid to leave Lund on bench again so maybe both

    4. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      B - NBNC

    5. Le Bluff
      7 years, 5 days ago

      C, B, A, in that order.

      C has the best chance of a clean sheet IMO.
      B has the best attacking threat.
      A you're just relying on an unlikely clean sheet.

    6. Brosstan
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Lund

  19. Differential C (Mark)
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Used to be EmeryIn (not and Arsenal Fan). Now I'm shifting to EmeryOut.
    Reminds me of when we had Puel here in Southampton. The guy on paper did alright. Finished 8th/9th in the league, reached a cup final. On paper, everything was fine. So why sack him?
    Simple, the football was utter crap. We played the blandest form of football I'd seen, especially compared to previous progressive managers like Poch and RonKoe. The guy had so many players suited to an exciting, attacking style like Boufal and Tadic, and yet still decided sideways football was the way to go. Jokes.
    Won't attack the man's character, but as a coach he was not the one for us. And I think its the same with Emery. The guy's tactics are just not right for this Arsenal team. When you've got the firepower they have, you'd think they'd be blowing teams apart left-right and center. Somehow that hasn't been the case, has it? The guy will finish top 4, and he may get a decent run in the Europa League, but lets not paper over the growing consensus that the man isn't right for a squad like Arsenal, for a team like Arsenal who have played with Wenger-ball for so long.

  20. Old Gregg
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Heaton
    Rico-Soy-Ota
    KDB-Salah-Sterling- Mount
    VArdy-Wilson-Tammy

    4m-lowton-Lund-Dendoncker

    1ft. 0itb.
    Save?

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Save - Personally I’d save and give Ota this week to see if he has lost his place

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Save

      1. Old Gregg
        7 years, 5 days ago

        thanks.

        Yes defo keep an eye on Ota. Wilson head on the block too. Had him since GW1

    3. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      7 years, 5 days ago

      I’d play Lundstram over Soy Sauce maybe?

      1. Old Gregg
        7 years, 5 days ago

        yes, will certainly consider. He might end up playin instead of Ota anyway.

    4. Fulchester's New Centr…
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Save.
      What is your avatar? It has been disturibing me for a while.

      1. Old Gregg
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Old Gregg from 'The Mighty Boosh'

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          7 years, 5 days ago

          That would make sense. Never seen it though so didn't make the link. Thanks.

    5. Brosstan
      7 years, 5 days ago

      No brainer save. Good team but I suspect your defense will hurt you when Liverpool start keeping cleans again.

      1. Old Gregg
        7 years, 5 days ago

        thanks. Yes, eyeing up a GW13 wildcard for the Liverpool fixtures.

  21. Klopp it
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Hi people, i know its early yet but any suggestions what i could do with this team for the weekend? Iv 1 ft 0itb

    Pope
    Taa, dunk, Pereira
    Kdb, cantwell, salah, sterling
    Abraham, haller, jimenez

    Bench, mcgovern, lundstram, simpson, hayden

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Cantwell is an issue - I’d play Lund over Cantwell this week and save a transfer

      Next week Cantwell upgrade by downgrading Pereira or Haller

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      7 years, 5 days ago

      I'd take a hit. Haller+Cantwell=>CHO+Ings

      1. Klopp it
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Cho?

  22. FDMS All Starz
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Thoughts on Auba & Ota —> Kun(c) & Janmaat (-4) (already have sterling and Kdb)

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Not for me

  23. ElliotJHP
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Who would you rather have?

    A) Robertson
    B) Hudson-Odoi + some spare change

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Come game week 12 it’s all about Robbo

      For next couple CHO

      1. ElliotJHP
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Aye, I already have two Chels and Trent.

        I might just get Robbo in now and downgrade Mount to CHO when I can

        1. Klopp it
          7 years, 5 days ago

          Whos cho?

          1. TheDragon
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Hudson Odoi

          2. Pep Roulette
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Callum Hudson-Odoi

  24. HD7
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Ota update?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Been in training

  25. Popcornharen
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Who to bench?

    Pope
    Diop Robbo Ota
    Salah Mcginn KDB Mount Bilva
    Vardy Abraham

    Bench right now: Button - Pukki, Lundstram, Rico

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Might be unpopular but Pukki over McGinn?

      I’d play Lund over Diop all day

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        7 years, 5 days ago

        Agree. If you still have Pukki play him, otherwise sell him. He is becoming less and less owned so risk with him. You lost so much already so why not to risk a little more.

        1. Popcornharen
          7 years, 5 days ago

          probably right. Also thinking of doing pukki --> jimenez and play jimenez

          1. iL PiStOlErO
            7 years, 5 days ago

            Even better. Wolwes are catching form and Jimenez is great differential. You have my vote for this move

  26. FPL Maldini
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Which combo will score best long term?

    A) Maddison And Rashford

    B) Vardy and Lanzini

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Rashford & Lanzini are neither inspiring, but from the two, B.

    2. Eleven Hag
      7 years, 5 days ago

      vardy cho

    3. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Don't like either option honestly.

      I would prefer C) Vardy and James

  27. Bavarian
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Appreciate any suggestion...

    Pope-Button
    VVD-Otamendi-Soyuncu-Lundstram-Kelly
    Salah-Sterling-Yarmolenko-Mount-Cantwell
    Vardy-Jimenez-Wilson

    1FT and 1.7itb

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      VVD -> TAA/ Robbo?

      Cantwell -> CHO?

      1. One for All
        7 years, 5 days ago

        yeh

      2. Bavarian
        7 years, 5 days ago

        The second one will bring me benching headache...I will go probably with the first one, once TAA declared fit... Thanks mate...

  28. Pep Roulette
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Maguire or AWB? Why?

    1. Eleven Hag
      7 years, 5 days ago

      AWB...Better chance of bps and cud get an assist or two

    2. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Neither - I own AWB and it’s been no fun.

      United haven’t scored from a set piece in decades so Maguire has no goal threat

  29. One for All
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Gw 18 Liverpool blank fixture?

    1. TheDragon
      7 years, 5 days ago

      Shhhh

      1. One for All
        7 years, 5 days ago

        lol

    2. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Is that when the club world cup is?

      1. One for All
        7 years, 5 days ago

        yeh it is, I just checked

  30. Big Ronnie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 5 days ago

    Didn't Bilva have until yesterday to respond to his FA charge? How long does it take them to decide punishment or lack of?
