Heavy backing for Salah among emerging top 10k FPL managers

A quarter of Fantasy Premier League managers have already deployed their first Wildcard of the season.

And there is similar usage for that chip among the emerging top 10,000 in the overall rankings.

After the first four Gameweeks, 25.4% of managers worldwide have used their Wildcard to get a new squad, 6.2% of those doing so ahead of Gameweek 4.

Unsurprisingly, the Wildcard is the most fashionable of the chips thus far, with the Triple Captain (10.2%), Free Hit (6.1%) and Bench Boost (4.4%) less so.

These statistics arguably highlight just how much goes on outside the Fantasy Football “bubble” that we are sometimes guilty of reading too much into.

Wildcards have been hotly debated on these pages, and in the Twittersphere, for some weeks now. And yet, it is perhaps refreshing for those still holding onto that chip that they are still in the vast majority. 

The same is even true inside the current top 10k, as early as the season is.

As you can see, just 25.1% of managers at this level have pulled the trigger on the first Wildcard. 6% of those did so for the most recent round of action.

But there are still plenty of mitigating factors forming part of the top 10k at this stage of the campaign, which is evident from the chip usage outside of the Wildcard.

21.1% of these managers have already made use of the Triple Captain, 8% the Free Hit and 7.5% the Bench Boost. Each of those respective totals is somewhat higher than the corresponding usage at an overall level.

Still, we should not take too much away from the managers inside the top 10k after the first four Gameweeks on account of the chips.

As you can see from the table above, more than half of those who began the campaign well have done so without the help of any chips.

And no more than 30.5% made a fast start through the use of one.

These managers are mostly relying on Mohamed Salah (£12.2m) for Gameweek 4, 37.5% of the top 10k captaining him for Sunday’s trip to Aston Villa.

The Egyptian scored four goals on the road last season but was joint-top among Liverpool players for assists away from home (six).

Despite the captaincy debate proving a hotly contested one this week, and Kevin De Bruyne (£11.7m) edging the FFS poll (21.4% to 17.8%), Salah has commanded a considerable majority of armbands among the top 10k.

Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) is the second-most-popular captain at this level for Gameweek 4 but his backing of 11.7% is still 25.8 percentage points lower than Salah.

De Bruyne was not far behind the Leicester man, but his 11.7% backing for the captaincy in the top 10k were left bitterly disappointed with a second successive blank in Manchester City’s 1-1 draw at Leeds.

The 7.7% of top 10k managers who went for the in-form Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.5m) were rewarded accordingly, as he netted in Everton’s Gameweek 4 hosting of Brighton.

Even though Spurs face an unpredictable big-six clash with Manchester United, 5.2% of the top 10k have captained Harry Kane (£10.5m), who has averaged seven points per game thus far.

The early top 10k template makes for interesting reading, most notable how fractured midfield is at this level.

Salah is comfortable the most popular asset in that position, owned by 73.7% of managers, but that is 39.8 percentage points more than the second-most-fashionable.

James Rodríguez (£7.7m), who registered another home double-figure haul against Brighton, is that man, but he hardly has much clearance from De Bruyne and Wilfried Zaha (£7.2m).

Meanwhile, it is intriguing to note that, despite confusion over his fitness situation, 19% have held onto Son Heung-min (£9.0m) ahead of Gameweek 4 and the international break.

The fact that Liverpool have just one clean sheet in three matches so far has not stemmed interest in their defence.

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m), Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) and Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) are three of the most popular in their position, while Tyrick Mitchell (£4.1m) remains the most fashionable in his price bracket.

    is Chilwell gonna be price up?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Very unlikely

  2. FPL Doctor

    Does this need a WC?

    1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      idts. but let's see how tomorrow goes.

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It does yes

    3. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No.

    4. Bank$y
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I’d say so

  3. tabby98
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Would you transfer out Saint Maximin despite having a good game today?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Why?

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yea

      1. Clintymints
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Well I’d never have him in the first place *

    3. Boo Ya Ka Sha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      if you still have him then you might as well just save.

    4. Bank$y
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No. He should be fit for the next match. He’s on great form running the wing and now has someone to aim for with crosses.

  4. Scout15
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Did Reece James lose his place for good or he'll be back?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Frank doesn’t even know

      1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah. Given how Abraham was barely playing, but was then thrown directly in the first XI after having one decent game against a very weak Barnsley side, just goes to show that Frank is just trying to find something that works. Since they shutdown a decent palace team today, I see Azpi keeping the spot. Maybe Frank will give James the Southampton game just to not destroy his confidence. But with their solid attack and somewhat weak midfield, I'm sure Frank will want the wingbacks to be a bit more defensive to provide security.

      2. Scout15
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        What does he even know at the moment? 😀

    2. lugs
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      i don't care he's gone from my team regardless, i can't have a 5mil defender that i can't rely on, i'm pretty sure he pulled the same trick on me last year in a brief spell that i owned him

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Can't be great now they finally kept a CS without him

  5. Boo Ya Ka Sha
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Would you pull the trigger on R.James & Adama to Robertson & a 4.5 mid (2 ft's) tonight? If Adama drops tonight then I'll priced out.

    Martinez
    TTA | Semedo | James
    Salah | KDB | Havertz | Foden | Traore
    Jimenez | DCL

    (Forster; Brewster, Lamptey, Mitchell)

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Traore out ASAP

      1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        to who?? Anguissa or Alzate?

        1. Clintymints
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Mmm anyone else?

          Just get a 4.4/4.5 mf For the 5th slot

          1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            too late.

            1. Clintymints
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Stephens 🙂

              1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
                • 8 Years
                3 years, 5 months ago

                idk mate, I feel like it had to be Anguissa, Alzate, or nobody. Maybe. I'll just get Soucek, then figure something else out next week

                1. Clintymints
                  • 14 Years
                  3 years, 5 months ago

                  Ok fair enough. For me, squeeze the pennies and upgrade elsewhere

  6. tabby98
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Wilson or Ings over the next few gws?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ings

  7. Bleh
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Missed the game but heard Leeds were very good against City tonight. Did Klich look threatening at all?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      You can use the FPL site for threat. Only scored 4.0 for threat.

      1. Bleh
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers, not very good at all then. May get rid.

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          23,19,10 for 1-3

          Tough opponent.

          1. Bleh
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Just compared those numbers with JRod’s... Klich’s average threat over the first 3 games was actually higher.

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It was like watching two Championship teams going hammer and tongs ; quality was a bit laughable at times.

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

      Not heavily envolved

      1. Bleh
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks, looking to get rid. Not too many great options around his pricepoint.

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

    Why wouldn't everyone be (c) Mo when he plays Villa

    1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I have Mo (c). But are you really saying that KDB/Sterling didn't tempt you?

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

        No mate I put it on Salah last Saturday and it never moved

    2. Como Park Rambler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Because Leeds concede a lot more chances.

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

        Villa have played toothless Sheffield and bang avg Fulham

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

          Toothless.. Try 10 men for 75mins.

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

            Yeah toothless that haven't scored a single goal

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

              I'm aware, they've not played particuarly well in any of the three.

          2. Salan
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            It's not only one match from Sheffield. We witnessed they were scoreless in 3 matches.

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

              Sheffield United.

              And they had good chances to score in all three, saves, luck, poor finishing, bit of everything.

      Decided to stick to my guns and whack it on Jimenez.

      1. Ragabolly
        • 14 Years

        Same here! Not feeling very scared after KDB's blank

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

          KDB's EO wasn't very high, you should be scared of Salah.

          1. Ragabolly
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            At least if Jimmy fails, it would be a similar situation to many with KDB(c). Imagine the damage if Salah + KDB hauled

        Werner and Havertz owners rage transferring.

    Ran out of patients with Werner

    1. waldo666

      Yep, good move.

    2. Clintymints

      Werner > a table cloth

      ...Would be an improvement

      1. OPTA FPL

        Lol

    3. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If you’ve kept him till now waiting to see how he plays with Ziyech and Pulisic starting seems like common sense.

  11. OPTA FPL

    Missed the game last night, keep or sell KDB?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      For me, keep.

      For most... probably sell

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Keep.

    3. Eewraks

      • 3 Years

      sold to cash in for the increases. wondering if he has always played this deep, and will he continue to play deep with the strikers (aguero and jesus) back

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

        I don't think he looked deep, had 3 or 4 decent chances today

  12. SpaceCadet

    Davies Egan > Chilwell lamptey for free?

    1. Clintymints

      Sure

    2. Bleh

    3. Albrightondknight

      Did you see the Lamptey flag?

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yes but also read that it was more precautionary so took a chance

  13. Rex Lapis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Get Wilson or Maupay?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      From the choices, Maupay

    2. Bank$y
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Definitely

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Maupay for the next two then shift to Wilson looks ideal.

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        This.. And then switch Wilson to Antonio for gw8

    4. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I prefer neal

    5. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years

      Wilson.

  14. tabby98

    Werner, Bruno, Davis --> Ings, Jimenez, James Rodriguez for a -4??

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Looks pretty good on paper.

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Seems like a reasonably good move.

    3. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years

      Wouldnt sell Bruno,he will get more assists with new signings

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

        New signings?

    4. Sanchit

      Looks good!

  15. TorresMagic™

    Early thoughts on this lot?

    Martínez (Forster)
    Alexander-Arnold, James*, Saïss (Lamptey) (Mitchell)
    De Bruyne, Salah, Podence, Foden* (Burke)
    Werner*, Jiménez, Calvert-Lewin

    2 FTs, 0.6 in bank.

    Thinking the 3* out for a hit?

    Any other ideas welcome.

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      werner to Kane funded by downgrading Foden

      or Foden to Son by downgrading werner to 6.5 fwd

    2. Bank$y
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ditch Foden and one of the other two.

    3. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Werner and foden prob need to be sorted in that order. Depending on what route you wana take, I can’t see a better fw line of Ings Jimi and DCL.

      What formation you fancy?

        343 right now until I can upgrade Berserko.

        1. Clintymints
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Ings + Jrod in and James to sacrificial defender? If 3 at the back there’s more than enough with the current lads

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Cheers all.

    5. seewhyaxe
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Same dilemma mate. Just not sure what to do anymore. 2 massive red arrows after wc is not ideal.

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

      Werner to Vardy, James to KWP, Foden whoever you can afford with the rest?

      1. Clintymints
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yea Vardy could be viable option too actually

        Good call

    7. seewhyaxe
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I might do James to 2nd pool defender and downgrade Werner

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        This

    8. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Could work,maybe Chilwell + Bruno + Brewster in

      money ITB for Burke/Saiss upgrade

    9. All about the galacticos
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      TAA & Podence > Chillwell & Hamez

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

        That is very rouge. Feels a bit kneejerky

        1. All about the galacticos
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          hamez not for you? fair enough. Need to find the 2mil somewhere.

    10. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Tricky

      Think a Chelsea mid is a tasty option given 7 goals in last two without team firing. Rodriguez better perhaps for value but only from 6 I guess.

      Werner Burke to Puli/Havertz plus Brewster GW5

      Foden to Rodriguez in 6

    11. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      James Foden Werner to
      - Chilwell Barnes Ings or
      - Castagne Son Maupay or
      - Chilwell Trossard Vardy
      (Not sure whether they are affordable)

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        21.5 atm.

    12. noquarternt
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      So many options now aren’t there. Think you’ve hit the right players to remove, not sure who to though...

    13. Francescoli
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I’d do Werner down to Brewster and upgrade Foden to Fernandes or Sterling.

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

    Dias nailed on , need to replace Ake in my draft team.

    Other options

    White
    Cooper
    Bertrand

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      unless hes as bad as stones hes nailed

      Ake was always going to be second choice

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Dias prob nailed anyway. Laporte and Ake left footed cbs

    3. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ake may move to left back

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

      Are they really the best options?

      Probably Bert out of those

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

        Yeah thier is 12 players in the league so all the best players have gone

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

          Maybe just wait and see if there are any transfers?

          I'm in a 10 man league so slightly less of a struggle for the 4th/5th defender spot.

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

        There is Sanchez, Egan and Coady actually

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

          Coady is nice and nailed, nothing more usually.

  17. Scratch
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Really wouldn't mind switching my £4.5m bench bum to Jorginho... pity about the transfer rumours around him.

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Monday is the deadline for international transfers

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

      Don't understand why they'd sell him.

      Massively underrated and misunderstood I reckon.

      1. Scratch
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        He's a neat and tidy sort of player, but I think he'd do better for them now with their signings, his job would basically be to sit back and pick out the likes of Havertz, Pulisic, Werner, Mount etc with simple passes.

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

          His passing, vision and general dictation of tempo is excellent.

          Frank's issue is he can't really play with Kante in a pair - not balanced enough and in the 3 with Kova they lose the no. 10 position (Kai and Mount)

  18. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Bought Hames at 7.5, sold for Foden at Saturday afternoon.

    Hames hauled. Foden played if midfield. Hames price rose again.

    Worst decision so far this season lol

    1. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah bad,Hamez nailed and main creator

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      That sucks.
      Everton definitely looking sharper than City atm.

    2 FT .0ITB thoughts?
    WC used so Justin needs to go soon

    Martinez (Nyland)
    TAA - Digne - Justin (Ayling,Mitchell)
    Salah - KDB - Bruno - Hamez - Foden
    DCL - Bamford (Brewster)

    A) KDB + Foden + Justin > Son + Pulisic + Chilwell (-4)

    B) Foden + Justin > Soucek + Chilwell 0.6 ITB

    C) Something else

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Bruno + Foden -> Son + Pulisic?

      1. FFSbet.com
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        0.3 short

        1. Bank$y
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          It’s possible Puli and Son both drop by a combined .3 within the fortnight in time for you to do this.

          1. FC Hakkebøf
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Not gonna happen

          2. Bushwhacker
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Why would Puli fall? Fit again would think people bringing him in.

          3. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Pulisic is price locked.

        2. FC Hakkebøf
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Do Digne to Chilwell for a hit to fund it?

  20. FC Hakkebøf
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Hey DZ. Fill the gaps in my wc team

    Martinez
    TAA Robbo Justin
    Salah KDB ( * ) ( * )
    DCL ( * )Brewster
    _____
    Steer Saiss Lamptey Bissouma

    A) Maupay, Son and Rodriguez
    B) Jimenez, Rodriguez and Barnes/Madisson
    C)Jimenez, Son and Podence
    D) Kane, Rodriguez and Podence

    In option D I would have to downgrade Saiss to a 4.5 defender

    TA

    1. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Like A a lot

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Leaning towards A as well...

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

      B but with Zaha

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Not a bad shout at all.. Decent fixtures for Zaha as well.. Between A and B. Leaning towards A though

    3. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A looks very solid

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks for input

    4. FPL_Devil

      1. FC Hakkebøf

        Thanks

    5. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Isn’t Justin at risk?

  21. lilmessipran
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    In order to fund James to Taa, I need to downgrade one of these to Son, which one?

    A Mo
    B Kdb
    C Raz

    1. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Either B or C imo.

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I would be tempted to downgrade KDB.. Sterling looks like the best pick of the two atm, but that could change. Might even go for Sterling over KDB on my WC. Definetely not Salah.

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      C

    4. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Penalties simply push toward Raz ... but then this weekend hasn’t thus far seen bizarre pens given.

  22. Ajax Hamsterdam

    digne to chillwell for free ?

    1. All about the galacticos
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      possibly my next move after the IB, I realise there is no chance of clean sheet with pickford there

    2. FPL_Devil
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Move I will me on my WC over the IB

      1. FPL_Devil

        *make

    3. Bushwhacker

      Yup

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

    James and Podence to Robertson and Stephens? -4

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Robbo before Everton?

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

        An attacking return will do, I won't let myself get priced when I want Robbo long term.

        1. FC Hakkebøf
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          If you get priced out otherwise then sure. If not you might as well wait and do it for free

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

            Yeah I will save if prices let me

      2. Botman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Last 3 at Goodison have been 0-0 draws. Granted this is a different Everton team but it's still worth considering.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years

          True.

    How to sort out that defence?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      James to a playing cheapie if happy to play Doherty.

  25. davies
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Early thoughts...

    Keep Mahrez or sell to Pulisic?

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

      Pulisic

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Sell.. Jesus might be back after IB. Mahrez' gametime will be more uncertain

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

    Is Bruno price locked? If so why?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He's not.

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

        Oh I just seen him on 0.0 that's all

  27. Francescoli
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Ok so what to do here?

    2FT and 0.3 in the bank.

    Ryan
    TAA Saiss James Taylor
    KDB Sterling Salah Podence
    Jimenez DCL

    Walton; Brewster Burke Mitchell.

    Unfortunately I’m 0.1 off doing James to Chilwell.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      TAA > Robbo, James > Chilwell
      Great team btw

      1. Francescoli
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Not a bad option. I’ve also toyed with KDB and James to Fernandes and VVD.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          If losing KDB I would go Robbo for James with Pulisic or Son in mid

  28. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Keep Rodríguez or switch to Barnes or Pulisic?

    1. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Sell Rodriguez for Pulisic.

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      !?

    3. Francescoli
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Surely keep

  29. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    James is cooked as an option isn't he... Swapped Semedo out for him on WC at the bitter end. Dullard is always the way.

  30. The FPL Units
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Thinking Jimi, Mitro and Adams to Wilson, Brewster and DCL.

    Thoughts? No Everton atm.

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Crazy... Prices already changed.. Just do Adams to Maupay / Wilson / Brewster

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Would hate to lose Jimi
