After a chastening weekend of football, the Scoutcast is back to reflect on all the key talking points from Gameweek 9.

You can watch it from 20:00 to 21:00 BST on our YouTube channel, or embedded in the article below.

Joe is joined by Fantasy Football Scout deputy editor Neale and special guest Karam, who has appeared on a handful of our videos already this season.

Currently positioned at 144k in the world, Karam has just deployed his Wildcard and will be discussing the make-up of his revamped Fantasy Premier League squad.

The trio above will be looking at the form and fixtures of Raul Jimenez (£7.1m), Manchester City rotation and the so-called ‘FPL template’, among other things.

There is also a differential for Joe to put forward, clean sheets, the community’s questions and a look at the Scoutcast crew’s Gameweek 10 plans.

With no-shows and auto-subs being the order of the weekend, we can expect the usual mix of sob stories and tales of jam in Rough with the Smooth.

Lessons learned from Gameweek 9

    Current Team:

    Pope
    TAA | Soyunco | Maguire
    Sterling | KDB | Mount | Yarmalenko
    Firmino | Wilson | Tammy

    Subs: Lunds | Cantwell | Aurier

    1FT. Which move to do?
    A) Firmino > Vardy
    B) Wilson > Vardy
    C) Maguire > Pereira

    Leaning towards A atm. Thoughts?

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      7 years, 3 days ago

      would probably downgrade firmino and eventually upgrade aurier/cantwell

    2. Bggz

      a

    3. juho
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Support!

  2. juho
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Is Tomori + McGinn -> Boly + CHO worth a hit?

    If I save FT, I'll have to start either Tomori or Lund, and bench McGinn

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      7 years, 3 days ago

      hard to imagine a fixture pairing in which tomori to boly would ever be worth a hit

      1. juho
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Yes, not terribly happy with Boly but don't see better alternatives

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          7 years, 3 days ago

          i see now that this accommodates cho because you have 3x chelsea already - join the club. anyway, not worth a hit - do for free next week!

          1. juho
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Thanks! I may even start McGinn now that Rodri is injured

    2. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Save

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

      why would you sell tomori? especially for a wolves def.

      1. juho
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Not liking Villa's fixtures and can't find many alternatives to McGinn

    4. Netley Lucas
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Why sell Tomo when you can do McGinn > CHO for free?

      1. juho
        7 years, 3 days ago

        I have Mount and Tammy, unfortunately

        1. Netley Lucas
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Drat! @bur is tricky, play Tomo or Lunny.

          1. juho
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Thanks!

        2. Pumpkinhead
          7 years, 3 days ago

          This was important info to know with your question

          1. juho
            7 years, 3 days ago

            My bad!

            Would you still recommend I save FT?

            1. Pumpkinhead
              7 years, 3 days ago

              4 of the next 6 are tough for McGinn, I got rid. Not sure the move is to get rid of Tomo atm. I'd look at other options.

              1. juho
                7 years, 3 days ago

                Yeah fixtures are awful

                Is Trossard too punty?

                1. Pumpkinhead
                  7 years, 3 days ago

                  Brighton have two nice fixtures but then you're in the same position you are now with McGinn. I wouldn't

  3. Kane5
    7 years, 3 days ago

    WC team. Any thoughts appreciated, cheers

    Roberto (Gazza)
    TAA Dunk Rico Ricardo (Lund)
    Mane KDB Sterling CHO (Cantwell)
    Jiminez Vardy (Connolly)

    1. TorresMagic™

      7 years, 3 days ago

      No interest in Abraham?

  4. I Member
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Play Lundstram (whu) or Soyuncu (sou)?

    1. Niho992
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I benched both

  5. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    7 years, 3 days ago

    What would you do with this lot?

    Pope Button
    Otamendi Tomori Dunk Lundstram Soyuncu
    Son KDB Mane Mount Cantwell
    Aguero Wilson Abraham

    1 FT, 0.1 in bank

    a) save
    b) Son > any mid except Chelsea/Man City
    c) Mane + Otamendi > Sterling + up to 5.1 def (-4)
    d) Son + Tomori > CHO + TAA (-4)
    e) Son + Wilson + Otamendi > Sterling + 11.0 (fwd+def combo) (-8)
    f) something else

    Cheers for any replies

    1. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      A - I don't think any of those moves make your tm better this gw

    2. juho
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Son + Aguero -> Sterling + Vardy

    3. Niho992
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Son to Martial/Maddison

    4. Flaming Flamingo
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I like D of those. Son to Martial could also be good imo.

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        7 years, 3 days ago

        agree with this

      2. Pumpkinhead
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Stop - Martial. Have y'all not learned your lesson yet?

        1. Flaming Flamingo
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Should never have sold

          1. Pumpkinhead
            7 years, 3 days ago

            You'd have 20 pts

            1. Flaming Flamingo
              7 years, 3 days ago

              Jokes aside, it probably would've worked out with all those bench points I've missed.

              1. Pumpkinhead
                7 years, 3 days ago

                Thats fair, I've left 74 points on my bench already this year.

                1. Flaming Flamingo
                  7 years, 3 days ago

                  Your bench sounds better than my team.

    5. TorresMagic™

      Cheers all, see what happens tonight I guess.

      1. knight_king2
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Not fancying haller / yarmo ?

        I fancy hammers can get results in the next 2 home fixtures. Dont be fooled by sheffield defence and the fact that they have never lost an away game yet.

        I would say Aguero to Haller, Son to Sterling. 🙂

    6. acidicleo
      7 years, 3 days ago

      D

    7. lilmessipran
      7 years, 3 days ago

      A looks like the best option barring injuries imo

    8. FCSB
      7 years, 3 days ago

      wait for tonight... by A, B, or C... never a fan of hits though

    9. Phil's Stamps
      7 years, 3 days ago

      A

    10. have you seen cyan
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Wilson to Connolly for 2 and upgrade Ota to TAA

    11. SpaceCadet
      7 years, 3 days ago

      a

  6. fish&chips
    7 years, 3 days ago

    What to do here guys?

    Pope (4.0) TAA, Robbo, Montoya, (Mings), (Lowton)
    Sterling, KDB, Maddison, Cantwell (McGinn)
    Vardy, Abraham, Wilson

    1FT, 0.9 ITB

    (a) McGinn -> CHO and play over Cantwell
    (b) Maddison -> Dilva for a 2 week gamble
    (c) Mings -> Lund and play over Cantwell
    (d) Save FT

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Maybe that order.

    2. acidicleo

    7 years, 3 days ago

    Just saw the spurs highights and son looked on fire.

    Any owners thinking of keeping ?

    1. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I'd keep, unless you're using him to move to kdb.

      1. Arctic monkeys
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Nah, Son Kdb Salah Sterling and Mount in MID.

        Think he is worth keeping

        1. Pumpkinhead
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Fixtures aren't great but he has looked good. I'd say hold and hope for a shot out at pool and then move on after if needed.

          1. Arctic monkeys
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Cheers

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      7 years, 3 days ago

      Look above, didn't see highlights though.

      1. Arctic monkeys
        7 years, 3 days ago

        I have Son and Ota as well.

        Spurs looked nothing like they did in the league, Ota made an appearence and they are playing Villa.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Cheers, surprised Aguero and Sterling played the full 90

          1. Arctic monkeys
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Pain in the head that city attack, think jesus might starts more games in the league this season.Then again it's Pep, you'll never know.

    3. Flaming Flamingo
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Probably not, since I have two frees. Still think he's a good option though.

    4. acidicleo
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Am selling

      1. theoldgit
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Fixtures are OK after this week. Sellers may regret.

    5. have you seen cyan
      7 years, 3 days ago

      someone hacked my account and did Son > KDB like two days ago

      1. Klein
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Yup happens all the time.

        1. have you seen cyan
          7 years, 3 days ago

          I got it back ok thats all they did, weird

      2. Nabs Kebabs
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Irbox hacked his own team and now he's 2.6m OR

  8. Nabs Kebabs
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Thoughts?

    Pope
    TAA Tomori Lundstram
    Sterling(c) Mane KDB(vc) Mount
    Wilson Abraham Jimenez

    Henderson Soyuncu Rico Cantwell (-4)

    1.0m ITB

    1. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I like it, gl

        ty

    2. bigbudgie
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Confident on a Sterling start?
      Also heard TAA was missing out tonight? Not sure if injured

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        7 years, 3 days ago

        "All the credit is for him. He’s a guy whose physicality is incredible. He is strong. The day after a game, he could play another game. His regeneration is incredible; he can play both sides. He is an extraordinary player."

        Yes, I'm confident he will start.

        1. bigbudgie
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Good stuff
          I have him too and will captain

          1. Pumpkinhead
            7 years, 3 days ago

            You're gonna captain him?

            1. Nabs Kebabs
              7 years, 3 days ago

              captaining is a pretty obvious move imo. If he is benched, he likely won't come on anyway and we get vc score

      2. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        7 years, 3 days ago

        virus for TAA

        1. bigbudgie
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Ok. Cheers TM

        2. Nabs Kebabs
          7 years, 3 days ago

          tbh it doesn't make a difference...season keeper regardless.

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Might get him this week if passed fit

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

      9 of the 11 are the same for me so it better be gtg
      Just swap Mount and Jimenez
      For CHO and Haller 🙂

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        7 years, 3 days ago

        nah Mount and Jiminez are way better 🙂

        1. POLSKA GOLA
          7 years, 3 days ago

          This, and not just because I own both

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Just joshing. Nabs is a step ahead of me tbf.

        cheers brah

  9. Pumpkinhead
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Any moves needed?

    Roberto
    Ota, Soy, Lund
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, CHO
    Vardy, Wilson, Tammy

    4.0: Cantwell, Lowton, Rico

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      7 years, 3 days ago

      no

    2. Arctic monkeys
      7 years, 3 days ago

      All set

  10. The Final Boss
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Guys sterling played full minutes?Also we hope now that ota may start this weekend right?

    1. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Yup, pep roulette who knows

    2. De Gea is GOAT
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Yep played full 90 and so did Kun. Otas definitely starting this weekend imo.

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

      looks likely but City have been letting in more goals than usual. Villa could still sneak one. Ota likely still gone for me

  11. olidooley
    7 years, 3 days ago

    So, I had 2 FTs last week and effectively burned one. Just did Button to McGovern.

    Still 2 this week and feel like leaving it again! 0 itb

    Pope McGovern
    Robertson TAA Otamendi Soyuncu Lundstram
    Salah Sterling KDB Mount Dendoncker
    Abraham Pukki Greenwood

    - Could Do Pukki to Jimenez but need to fund it. Otamendi only one I don’t like but he’s going to play this weekend?

    1. Pumpkinhead
      7 years, 3 days ago

      McGovern to Button

      1. olidooley
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Haha

    2. thunder_mike
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I would look to downgrade Otamendi to fund. With your other defenders I would be tempted by Rico. Which would give you a little money to play with.

      1. olidooley
        7 years, 3 days ago

        But just give him another week is tempting right with Villa at home?

        1. thunder_mike
          7 years, 3 days ago

          It is tempting. Depends if you think Jiménez might get more points this weekend. Tough call.

  12. thunder_mike
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Haller >
    A) Jiménez
    B) Vardy (triple up with Maddison + Soy
    C) Save FT

  13. IRBOX âš½
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Save here? Squad looks mint.

    Pope
    TAA Otamendi Tomori
    Salah Sterling (c) KDB Mount Maddison
    Tammy Pukki

    Button Lundstram Dunk Wickham

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Pukki needs to go

    2. Francescoli
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Pukki to Jimi is what I'd do.

      1. IRBOX âš½
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Can’t afford with 0.0 ITB. I’m at least giving him the fixture at Carrow Road where the canaries attacking numbers are promising!

        1. Nabs Kebabs
          7 years, 3 days ago

          dropping like a stone and coming up against lowest xGC in the league.

          1. IRBOX âš½
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Lowest xGc but how many clean sheets have they kept? It’s as baffling as Vardy’s xG. Think he can easily score against United, as he proved against Liverpool and City. Norwich are due a pen as well

            1. IRBOX âš½
              7 years, 3 days ago

              Actually Liverpool have the best xGc

              1. Nabs Kebabs
                7 years, 3 days ago

                actually they don't....

                1. IRBOX âš½
                  7 years, 3 days ago

                  over the past 6 matches*

                  1. Nabs Kebabs
                    7 years, 3 days ago

                    lol

              2. TorresMagic™
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                7 years, 3 days ago

                Nope.

            2. Nabs Kebabs
              7 years, 3 days ago

              what is baffling about Vardy's xG? Conversion rate of 40% explains it pretty well imo...

              1. IRBOX âš½
                7 years, 3 days ago

                Yeah because 40% is sustainable? you’ve just answered your own question

                1. Nabs Kebabs
                  7 years, 3 days ago

                  you're not very clever are you? Why do you think I don't own Vardy?

                  1. IRBOX âš½
                    7 years, 3 days ago

                    Did I say you did? You seem to be daft

                    1. Nabs Kebabs
                      7 years, 3 days ago

                      let me know when you crack top 2 million overall bro, then we'll talk 😆

                      1. IRBOX âš½
                        7 years, 3 days ago

                        Good one. Clearly it’s an outlier which will correct itself given my superior season history

                      2. Nabs Kebabs
                        7 years, 3 days ago

                        😆

      2. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 3 days ago

        looking at the same myself but 0.1 short so need a 2nd transfer to fund. Most likely Ota out (even though next 2 fixtures are good)

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Same issue as you have had all season, lack of forward goals mainly.
      75 points from goals for your team all season vs 100+ for most on here.
      Holding on too long when their stats have dropped.

          GW6 was the big chance for luck but you picked a fixture captain vs a form one.

    OK so what does 90mins mean for Sterling and Aguero?

    I'm still lost on what to do with my FTs.

    2 FTs 0.1itb

    Pope Button
    TAA Soyuncu Otamendi Lundstram Rico
    Salah KDB Mount Ceballos Cantwell
    Aguero Abraham Vardy

    A) Aguero, Ceballos, Otamendi --> Jimenez, Sterling, (4.0 bench fodder) (-4)
    B) Ceballos, Otamendi --> CHO, Boly
    C) Ceballos Cantwell --> CHO, Elneny
    D) Something different

        Cheers Nabs. Do you think CHO, Mount and Abraham is too much Chelsea attack?

        1. Nabs Kebabs
          7 years, 3 days ago

          Chelsea have the second highest xG in the league after Man City. Compare the prices of Chelsea players to City and Liverpool. Triple Chelsea this season is quite simply an absolute must imo as they are incredible value. I've got Tomori instead of CHO but both clearly great value. Mount and Abraham are close to essential, everyone should have had them from weeks ago.

            Abraham overrated with xGI delta of 2.45?

            1. Nabs Kebabs
              7 years, 3 days ago

              lol, Abraham leads shots, shots on target, shots in the box and big chances. Go take your xGI delta somewhere else bud

      1. have you seen cyan

        yea its nice, ings is a bit naff. Could lose Robbo, play two of that 3 rotation in defence and upgrade Ings. Lol

  18. De Gea is GOAT
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Guys what would you do if you were in my shoes?

    Removed Sterling last week as i lost all patience. Should've listened to the legends on here and saved my FT and i am now debating bringing him back for the 2 home fixtures. Only problem is that Mane would have to make way.

    Already have KDB. Should i hold and possibly bring him back in next week? Please help

    1. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I think whatever you choose you it will be fine. Can do it now, or later. Mane has a home game he does well there. Who are your other premium players?

      1. De Gea is GOAT
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Agreed. The only thing bothering me is the fact that mini league rivals have Sterling. I have KDB, Mane and Auba atm. Also have Mount Tammy Wilson

        1. Ini
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          7 years, 3 days ago

          If you have no pressing moves, then I’d do it. Fail fast. Not a fan of Auba, but he has good fixtures and will return.

          1. De Gea is GOAT
            7 years, 3 days ago

            Thanks mate. Might just hold and re assess next week. Let's just hope Sterling stays quiet.

  19. MagicMessi
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Salah to Sterling for a hit?
    (And hope Salah blanks next two ) yes or no

    1. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 3 days ago

      No

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      try a different route. I am

  20. waltzingmatildas
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Morning DZ
    Team is:
    Pope Heaton
    Robbo Digne Pereira Lundstram Cathcart
    Mane KDB Maddison Cantwell Dendoncker
    Auba Pukki Abraham

    Would you wc?
    Or perhaps Auba and Digne - Kun and Rico for (-4)
    or Pukki and Cathcart - Jiminez and Rico (-4)

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      That first option

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        7 years, 3 days ago

        I mean A/D -> K/R (-4)

        1. waltzingmatildas
          7 years, 3 days ago

          That's what I'm leaning towards. Auba has done me well but think Kun might be the best option now. Plus the mid price forwards aren't really exciting me.
          Cheers

  21. juho

    I feel like setting it on Sterling and be done with it for the rest of the season

    2. bigbudgie

      I'd do that with Salah but not Sterling

  22. Kane Train
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Good to go this weekend?

    Pope
    Otamendi / TAA / Lundstram / Soy
    Salah / KDB / Son / Mount
    Abraham / Vardy

    1. bigbudgie
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I would say so
      If TAA not recovered who comes in?

      1. Kane Train
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Rico

    2. NABIL - FPL otai

      yes

    4. TorresMagic™

      69, expected more.

      1. AicilaXI
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        7 years, 3 days ago

        A lot of players this year I guess.

      2. NABIL - FPL otai

        good to know

  25. Emiliano Sala
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Would you swap sterling to salah for -4? Already done pepe ---> kdb

    Think sterling will rest. Wanted to make this move next gw but now things have changed.

    Full team:

    Pope
    Robbo TAA Digne Ota
    KDB(C) Sterling Mount CHO
    Abraham haller

    4.0 Cantwell kelly greenwood

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      no

      1. Emiliano Sala
        7 years, 3 days ago

        You think sterling will start?

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          7 years, 3 days ago

          There's a big chance since MCI is chasing hard and can't afford another slip up. This is not the same episode like the ast post-IB (90 mins + UCL + bench + Carabao). I think he'll rest in next midweek so I'm keeping and probably (c) ahead of Kun

          1. Emiliano Sala
            7 years, 3 days ago

            They don't need raheem to win againts villa. They won 8-0 without him vs watford

            1. NABIL - FPL otai
              7 years, 3 days ago

              Indeed. But then they lost against Wolves at home with both Raheem and Kun playing 90. Your point is?

              We can never solve pep roulette

              1. Emiliano Sala
                7 years, 3 days ago

                My point is raheem isn't worth his price. And some difficult games coming for city. Kdb is better captaincy option for me too. This is the best week to do the switch imo. Most differential salah ever

                1. NABIL - FPL otai
                  7 years, 3 days ago

                  If you think so. Kdb obviously can 'cover' sterling in terms of captaincy and consistency, but i feel raheem os more explosive. Not sure losing hom for a hot this week, even for Salah.

                  Fwiw i have all 3 🙂

  26. Yankee Toffee
    7 years, 3 days ago

    I hate to move on Kun with these two gorgeous home fixtures coming up, but Pep's rotation is killing me and Pukki has to go.

    Want to do Kun, Pukki > ???, ???

    Currently, looking at a lot of different options: Vardy, Abe, Auba, Haller (fixtures), C Wilson, Rashford. Tough choices.

    Or could also hold on Kun for the next two and hope he plays...

    Pope
    TAA, Rico, Lundstram, Soyunchu
    KDB, Sterling(vc), Mane, Mount
    Kun, Pukki

    Stek, Guendouzi, Lowton, Wickham

    2FT, 0.0itb

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      hold, no point losing him out of fear of rotation. We always knew pep roulette, so just stick to our guns (given the immediate fixtures) and pray hard.

      Not a fan of losing Pukki this week so I'd use that 1 FT to treat Stek/Wick or even Guen

      1. Yankee Toffee
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers, thanks for the advice.

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          7 years, 3 days ago

          np

  27. NABIL - FPL otai
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Play Rico (wat) or Soy (sou)?

    1. Emiliano Sala
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Soy

    2. waltzingmatildas
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Rico for me

    3. Yankee Toffee
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Rico

    4. Thomas Magnum
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Rico

    5. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Thanks all

  28. SpaceCadet
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Kane > kun plan with the ft seems to be a bit dodgy now with Kun playing 90 mins last evening. Would you still go ahead with this transfer? Have kdb as the only other city player currently.

    1. Yankee Toffee
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I already own him so I think I'll hold but would be reluctant to bring him in. Tough call with those 2 home fixtures. If he plays, he is basically guaranteed to score. At least the Atalanta game was at home.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      7 years, 3 days ago

      hard to call.

      If he plays, he'd probably score.

      But then losing supernailed, perhaps rejuvenated Kane to rotation-risk Kun is a big gamble to me.

      Sorry, cant help here

    3. Thomas Magnum
      7 years, 3 days ago

      How many more chances do you want to give Kane. I already sold him this week after holding him all season, enough is enough.

      1. SpaceCadet
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Got him on wc for a one gw cap punt and plan was to switch to kun this gw with money itb. Now confused about Kun's gametime.

    4. Amey
      7 years, 3 days ago

      Vardy Jimenez also not bad options if you're not sure about Kun playing minutes

      1. SpaceCadet
        7 years, 3 days ago

        Going with just kdb for this fixture is scary tho.

  29. Stoic
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Wow, I started with Siggy , Perez, Fraser and King as my lone striker in GW 1. No wonder I'm 1 mill

    1. Amey
      7 years, 3 days ago

      I still have King 😮

  30. rokonto
    7 years, 3 days ago

    Cantwell and Otamendi out.
    Sterling and under 5.4 (inc.) defender in.
    -4
    Yes or no and which under 5.4???
