    Start KWP or Dallas?

    1. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years

      Dallas

    2. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KWP belongs in league one - not on any FPL roster

    Which should be the highest priority;

    A) Sterling ---> Salah(C)
    B) Mitro ---> Maupay (probably have to do that in the next couple of hours)
    C) Barnes --> Grealish
    D) Take a hit and do two of the above

    Ryan - Martinez
    TAA - Saiss - Lamptey - James - Mitchell
    Sterling - Son - J. Rodriguez - Barnes - Anguissa
    Kane - DCL - Mitrovic

    Barnes + Podence to

    A) Barkley + JRod / Pulisic (8.5)
    B) Grealish + 7.2

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A) Barkley & JRod

  12. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    James owners what will you do?The fact that he started vs Sevilla means that he will probably be on the bench vs ManUtd.But if he doesn't start next Wednesday for the next Champions League game he could start vs Burnley.

    1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Go for Chilwell

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        This

    2. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I can bench him this week and assess it. That cameo 3 mins did me over and that idiot Lampard has set a president now. If Azpi starts Sat I will likely get rid when I find a good week to do so

      1. wulfrunian
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Its almost certain that Azpi will start.The point is who will start next Wed.

    3. Cak Juris
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He is the best performer vs Sevilla... James, Chilwell and Azpi will be rotated for EPL and Champions League... No guaranted starter, even for Chilwell..

  13. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What are your thoughts on my team?

    Martinez, Button
    Chilwell, Semedo, Reguilon, Justin, Branthwaite
    Salah, Son, Pulisic, James, Grealish
    Kane, DCL, Brewster

    1. osceola31909
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Very nice.

    2. 1984 TC
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Solid. Who’s your captain?

      1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Salah probably

  14. Will J 256
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Have just done Reece James to Ayling. Have the exact money to do Jimenez to Kane. Should I do it for a -4?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

      1. Will J 256
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks!

  15. Ronnies
    • 8 Years

    Any update from Pep on KDB ?

    Thanks guys.

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      May be back in training tomorrow or Friday

      1. Ronnies
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Tnks man!

  16. Fortune
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    which to do for this week, fellas?

    A. richarlison + barnes > mo salah (C) + DCL
    B. richarlison + wood > kane (C) + DCL

    i know, this richa over DCL punt failed spectacularly

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Gun to my head B due to the next 3 fixtures, but really it's a coin toss.

  17. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    1FT, 1.5itb
    1) Jimenez > DCL
    2) Jim, Soucek > DCL, Grealish (-4)
    3) Ings, Jim > Kane, DCL (-4)
    4) Switch to 343 -- Davis, Soucek > Watkins, Bissouma (-4)

    Already have Salah, Sterling, Son, Podence, Trent

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      3 or 2, but I'd make plans to get all 3

      1. jdp219
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Indeed. And will. Only concern is their high ownership at this point. The relative low ownership of my current squad and their returns are keeping me afloat (somewhat).

  18. The Wheeler Dealer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Right, after a fairly poor 69 points this week, I've decided to finally pull the WC trigger - Leicester have flatlined, and with 3 soton players in my team not looking promising with fixture list, here we go:

    McCarthy
    Robbo-Saiss-KWP-Justin
    Rodriguez-Salah-Son-Barnes
    DCL-Ings
    Bench: Nyland-Bissouma-Mitrovic-Ferguson

    Turns to

    Martinez
    Robbo-Saiss-Konsa
    Barkley-Zaha-Salah-Son-Rodriguez
    DCL-Kane-Maupay
    Bench: Forster-Ferguson-Mitchell

    Thoughts?

  19. Ronnies
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Best option;

    A) Play Bissouma - home to West Brom

    B) Do Lewis --> Lamptey and bench Bissouma

    Tnks.

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      B. Lamptey is a season keeper and still cheap.

  20. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Does Sterling start this weekend ??

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'd say he will but slight chance of getting a rest. I'm so 50/50 on swapping him for a LIV mid and giving them the armband!

  21. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts lads? Not too happy with defence and Barnes...

    McCarthy
    Taa Doh Mitchell
    Son Hamez Greal Podence
    Werner ings dcl
    (Nyland, Barnes, KWP, Egan)

    A) Barnes to Rash
    B) Ings to Kane
    C) Save FT

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      For me your biggest priority is replacing Doherty. Then do B if your happy with taking hits.

  22. jia you
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Don't think I've even been so unsure what to do with 3.7 itb...will go down to the wire but will be one of the below, leaning towards A but feel it will be hard to see it through lol
    A. Save FT
    B. Mane (Pulisic out)
    C. Bruno (Pulisic out)
    D. Rashford (Pulisic out)
    E. Kane (Jimenez out)
    D. Salah (Sterling out)

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

      E if for free.
      I find it hard to resist for a hit

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        It's 50/50 at best on this move (I know most of the community see it as a bit of a no-brainer). I have Son and don't like booking in a transfer as I won't want double Spurs attack in 3 GWs time. I think Wolves will improve and kick on so unsure about canning Jimenez.

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely E is the best upgrade imo on current form for sure

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers, seems to be the thought process by most on here alright...maybe I'm just overthinking and should just get Kane (as he is playing the best football I've seen from him 2-3 seasons tbf) and give him the armband!

    3. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      E and captain.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        tempting but I wouldn't be surprised by a Burnley defensive masterclass in that one!

        1. Phil's Stamps
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          You're right, Sterling probably a better differential captain for you in that situation.

  23. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez
    TAA Saiss Lamptey
    Salah(C) Sterling(V) Son Foden Podence
    Jimenez DCL
    Steer Chilwell Mitchell Brewster
    Save and GTG?

  24. Will J 256
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Hi guys. Just a quick question. I assume Kane won’t rise tonight?

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      if he does it will make an ass out of u and me

  25. Sheffield Wednesday
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez | Forster
    TAA | Roberston | Saïss | C Taylor | Mitchell
    Salah | Son | J Rodríguez | Foden | Podence
    Kane | Bamford | Mitrović
    0.5 itb, 1FT

    Taylor and Mitchell are second and third on bench. Probably save FT.
    Who would you have first on bench GW6 - Podence, Mitrović or Bamford?

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Pod

  26. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Yes or No:

    Jiminez + Periera -> DCL + Rodriguez (-4)

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yep.

  27. Alisson WondHaaland
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How would you rank these as options?

    A) Reguilon
    B) PVA
    C) Chilwell
    D) Castagne
    E) Semedo
    F) Saiss

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Lowest price

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      C
      F
      D
      B
      A
      E

  28. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which moves do you prefer?

    A) Jiminez + Periera -> DCL + Rodriguez (-4)

    B) Jiminez + Dier -> DCL + Robertson (-4)

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Something without a hit.

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tough. I would want Rodriguez, but I would prefer to hold onto Periera as a differential than Dier. And mainly because Robbo is smashing it this season, B.

  29. Peaky Blinders
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which do you prefer for next week?
    A. Grealish and Werner
    B. Bruno and Wood

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A fellow blinder

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

  30. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone concerned that Sterling doesn’t start against WHU? Played the full 90...
