    Oh well Salah dropped, should I have sold him -too late now

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Can still sell him.

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      0.1 loss in TV doesn’t change anything

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        It stops many from doing salah to kdb

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          It doesn’t. It stops a few from doing KDB back to Salah though.

          1. Nightcrawler
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            If u aim to have .7 itb after doing salah to kdb u cant anymore unless u got salah at a higher price.. Completely changes everything

            1. The FPL Units
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              5 years, 8 months ago

              Leaving it to a very fine margin with no room for error. Will just take extra transfers or don't get him back.

              1. Black Knights
                • 14 Years
                5 years, 8 months ago

                He'll go down again and you can get him back anyway.

  2. Pukki Blinders
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    WC team. 1.0itb, any issues or upgrades that I could make?

    McCarthy
    Dias Cancelo Lamptey
    Sterling KDB Bruno Grealish
    Richa DCL Watkins

    Forster | Coufal Anguissa N.Phillips

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Sterling should be Mane*

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Better, looks good

      2. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Ahh ok, good team.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      4 City seems excessive

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        How about 5 then?

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      You have 4 City no?

    4. scubasmithy
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Similar to my wildcard (if I play it this week)

      McCarthy
      Cancelo Lamptey Zouma Coufal Kilman
      KDB, Bruno, Grealish, Ziyech, Bissouma
      Vardy, DCL, Watkins

      Have enough cash left to do Ziyech to Salah next week

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Wow high TV then I guess

    5. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Looks great. Shame you can’t fit Chelsea in but you can only have so many! Maybe Dias to Zouma?

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Have enough to go Dias to Chilwell or even McCarthy to Mendy but think I prefer the double City defence given fixtures

    6. Vlekz
      5 years, 8 months ago

      can do lamptey to telles.
      i have the same team with telles(lamptey) brewster(watkins) souchek(anguissa)

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I think Shaw will be a danger when he returns as Ole loves him for some reason. Also why go with Soucek over a 6.0 striker? I really wanted Soucek in but I’ve had to let him go as I think theres more value up front

  3. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    How long are you waiting to make the moves?

    Currently with 2FTs and still with Chilwell, Robo and Salah in the team.

    1. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Till Saturday

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      To the latest time for me. Make sure I have the latest info.

    3. scubasmithy
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      team news first, so probably friday afternoon

    4. MESSINHO
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Chilwell is in contention to play tomorrow and I'm sure Robbo will be just fine for the weekend. Definitely wait for press conferences to end for me.

  4. OverTinker
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    I have Robbo, Salah, Wilson, Chilwell And Mitchell in my team flagged. Anyone having more

    1. Lukakuna
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      My rival has Wilson Salah Sterling Rashford Mitchell Chilwell Robertson

      1. OverTinker
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Damn. But I neither have WC nor any playing sub

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Chilwell, Salah, Brewster, Mitchell, and Ferguson for me

  5. Sprets
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Who would you rather have for this upcoming gameweek?

    A) Grealish
    B) Zaha

    1. Flair
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Grealish

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Grealish this week and Grealish every week

    4. mrelpea
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      100%
      Grealish

    5. Shineonme
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A

  6. sentz05
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC?

    Martinez Button
    Cancelo Justin Chilwell Kilman Coufal
    Grealish KDB Ziyech Fernandes Soucek
    DCL Werner Watkins

    2 concerns here really: no Vardy, no Jota and Auba instead of KDB?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy is reliant on pens
      Jota is far from a concern
      Auba is a terrible pick

      1. sentz05
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        What about the WC? Any improvements?

        1. Pukki Blinders
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Looks good but triple Chelsea isn’t ideal for me with upcoming fixtures

          1. sentz05
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            Who would you remove?

            1. Pukki Blinders
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 8 months ago

              Both are at difficult price points so it’s tough to say... the way your team is structured you may have to keep both unless you restructure somewhere

            2. Pukki Blinders
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 8 months ago

              Or Werner to Jesus could work

    2. mrelpea
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Definitely don’t worry about Auba. The only thing I’d maybe consider is Jesus instead of Werner

    3. scubasmithy
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'd want Vardy up front and maybe sacrifice Soucek for a 4.5 to fund it, but other than that it's pretty much identical to my wildcard I'm planning (subject to team news)

  7. Tango74
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    I think same for a lot of people, saiss who doesn’t play too

    Well this is in a way good as it forces us to think outside the box instead of template teams. Who do you sell/drop of the six?? Lots of differentials and then you may buy a player who then may get the virus !

  8. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    What to do with Salah & Wilson?

    If I keep Salah I can get Antonio or Bamford if Wilson is not fit.

    If I sell Salah I can get Bruno & Vardy or KDB & Richarlison.

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Sold Salah Sun for Bruno,
      Once we see confirmation of his condition he could could drop like a stone.

    2. puhd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      So far I'm keeping Salah... but Bruno does seem a great captain option this GW

  9. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    People selling Salah, how are you planning to buy him back? Those that bought him at 12.0

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      It 0.2 value to find at most. Hardly insurmountable.

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      When he drops to 12.2 I can buy him back for the same price I sold, simple. If not, 0.1 loss is no big deal for a 12.0 player

    3. puhd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Not an issue

    4. MESSINHO
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      GW9 - Salah -> Bruno
      GW10 - Son -> DdB
      GW11 - Save (or downgrade Robbo)
      GW12 - Downgrade Robbo + Bruno -> Salah

      If Bruno does well I might lose Kane for Salah, lots of options.

    5. stevep69
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He is only going to be out for two weeks of which one he has done on int duty.

    6. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      One more drop, if he’s not fit could actually make profit?
      Got Bruno rise so level 😉

    7. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      can buy mane afterthat, no problem

    8. Black Knights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Sold him for 12.2 to Bruno. Will save enough to buy him back at 12.2 max, possibly even 12.1 the way it's going.

  10. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    A) Grealish or B) Ziyech for the foreseeable?

    1. sentz05
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I think both.

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Grealish

    3. puhd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Grealish. We haven't seen that much of Z yet, but he does seem potentially very good

    4. MESSINHO
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I have both, but if you can only have 1, I'd get Grealish.

    5. mrelpea
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Both!! But if you can only have one,go for grealish. Ziyech is a must have long term though, but for the immediate future, Villas fixtures are fantastic

  11. Manumana
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Anu up todate info on C.Wilson & those who hve him, wot is your plan to do with him ?
    Thanks a lot

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I have heard reports he could be back on Saturday and others saying he could be out for a few GWs. Wait for the pressers. A few decent options like Bamford, Watkins and Antonio if you need to sell.

  12. puhd
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Who will score more this GW:

    A- Ziyech
    B- KDB

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A

      1. puhd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks mate

  13. sentz05
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    It might be worth ignoring Liverpool for the foreseeable future. Look at their team and see how many flagged players they've got. I can't see them doing particularly well for a while.

    1. puhd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      You've got a point

  14. sentz05
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    On a WC, should I bring in KDB this week even though he has Spurs away this week? Would it be better to bring in someone else and use my FT to bring him in week after?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Don’t book in transfers on a WC. Just get him in, could still score points vs Spurs

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Think this week is a lesson to not be reliant on transfer plans as some injuries and covid can destroy it all

  15. sentz05
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    I'm not sure whether he's worth bringing in. His returns are actually awful.

    1. sentz05
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      (KDB)

  16. Pukki Blinders
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    On WC... would you rather double up on City with Sterling & KDB or go with Mane?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Mané - like your City double up in defence

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        At the expense of Chilwell though? I’m on the fence with it

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Fixtures favour City over Chelsea for clean sheets in the next few

        2. Black Knights
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Chelsea's next 10 isn't great for clean sheets tbh. I don't get the hype at all.

          1. Pukki Blinders
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            Yeah glad I’m not the only one that thinks that... very easy to get sucked into a bandwagon

  17. Letsgo!
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    capt grealish,bruno or dcl?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      DCL

    2. MESSINHO
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bruno

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Own all but going with Richa

      1. Letsgo!
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        richa and DCL tgt? wow

        1. Pukki Blinders
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          On WC yeah, only for next 3 though

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bruno the safe option, Grealish is a great differential cap option. He is on form and both hauls came at home games.

  18. Gunners in Haaland
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Raheem Sterling will be fit for Spurs vs City.

    https://twitter.com/City_Xtra/status/1328444237277433861?s=20

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Classic international break injury

    2. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Sterling is so smart always managed to miss the international games.

      1. Pacer.
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        It is practically your duty to your country to bunk off international games during a pandemic

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He’s a weasel that Sterling, that’s another int break he’s got out of with a fake injury

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        A weasel yes - but my weasel

    4. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      so? hes not gonna do anything against spurs

      1. Simon69
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        The mighty Spurs who conceded a 3 goal lead to Moyeseh's Hammers?

        1. Letsgo!
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          sorry but not sterling. he sux

    5. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Just as well, 180 mins in toby’s pocket he would have got cabin fever

  19. Bielsa Murderball
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Can mo salah provide anywhere near his recent output considering liverpool's defensive injuries?

    1. Black Knights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      We don't know.

      1. Pacer.
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Haha like it

        While there is a case that losing VdV, TAA and fabs OOP will harm how effectively they can build attacks, I prefer the narrative that they will keep conceding goals and be forced to score more to win games

    2. Alberto Tomba
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I think so.
      We've a very tight-nit squad who have known each other for years, to the extent that where there's a frailty, the others all carry bit of that burden - for example when we had Ali out at the start of last season and a very nervous replacement in Adrian, and we won every PL game he played in.

      Clearly Trent and Andy's passes won't be coming in, but there will be others.
      I think Mo will be raring to go having been tied down under isolation.

    3. Homer21
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Not overly confident of him doing so

  20. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    All those that have traded Salah early for KdB will be sweating on Belgium's last game. Ridiculous the amount of trades being made half way through an international break.

    1. Black Knights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      WCers.

      1. Black Knights
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        And casuals.

    2. Pacer.
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Even if he's through it fit then God knows, I still wouldn't put it past pep to invoke the mysterios red zone and bench him. Even against Spurs

      1. shirtless
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Exactly. I'm doing Son>KdB next week, but will have to take the plunge if Salah is def out. Would rather deal with Mitro! Hanging around like a bad smell.

    3. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Absolutely ludicrous. Lock them up and throw away the key.

    After good arguments in the link below to bring in Bruno, is it worth doing Son to Bruno for a hit?

    https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/22793097

    Currently thinking Vassilev to Watkins with the FT and keeping Salah if only out for 1GW

    3.5itb 1ft
    Martinez
    Chilwell Taylor Ayling Cancelo Justin
    Grealish Son Rodriguez
    DCL Kane
    (Peacock Bissouma Salah* Vassilev)

    Martinez
    saiss kwp chilwell
    salah son grealish ziyech
    dcl bamford kane

    subs: steer asm lamptey dallas

    gonna do salah to bruno after tomorrow and shld be giving him the captain armband or maybe DCL.

    gt one more FT.. dallas to digne? or dallas to cresswell?

      Saiss is more of a priority to transfer out than Dallas. Also I would probably roll the 2nd FT.

        5 years, 8 months ago

        i think saiss will play the coming game

      Team is fine after a couple transfers depending on injury updates

    I don't understand why people are talking highly of United's fixtures?
    I mean West Brom this week is great no doubt but that's the type of game there they struggle but I do accept it's still a great fixture.
    After that they have Southampton away, Southampton have 3 CS in 4 home games so no pushovers. Then West Ham who defended well vs big teams and then the Manchester Derby, after that's it a mixed bag.

    What I'm saying is it makes sense to get United assets especially Bruno but I'm not sure of doing that because of the fixture swings, if you get Bruno or someone it should be long term Imo(unless off he's just a placeholder for Salah right now)

    1. Tonyawesome69

      I have the exact same doubts about bringing in Bruno and got these responses https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/22793097. I'm still undecided

      Southampton CS were mainly due to fixtures. Their defence lacks pace which is the strongest area of United attackers.

    Personally would Salah > Bruno / Ziyech / KDB and WC in 10 to bring in City players.

        Thanks. Would salah & Foden > Bruno & Ziyech be worth a -4 if WC next GW?

    I have 8 yellow flags and 2 red flags in my team and one non playing gk..FH best option with no Wc left?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Obviously wait until press conference but looks like it's the best option

  27. Tcheco

    Perma (C) for 4 games:

    (A) KDB: BUR FUL mun WBA

    (B) Vardy: FUL shu BHA EVE

      Kev

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I don't think Shu is the type of game that suits Vardy but rest of the games I see hauls everywhere

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Based on the current form Vardy

    4. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years

      Why Perma? If you have both you’d want to be captaining both depending on fixtures

  28. Miguel Sanchez

    Will help me decide moves this week, but who is a better GW10 captain from:

    A) Vardy (FUL)
    B) Bruno (sot)

    1. ElliotJHP
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A

  29. Pukki Blinders
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Don’t know why people suddenly think Liverpool are going to walkovers in defence, there’s way too much over exaggerating going on....
    Milner Matip Fabinho Robbo

    That’s not an easy backline to get past at all

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Not nearly as strong as TAA VVD Gomez Robbo though is it? They have shown defensive fragilities with all of those fit so expect a further regression. Better value elsewhere

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Not saying to invest In their defence, I’m just saying for people that think Vardy will be hauling this week are going to be disappointed.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Ohh Vardy will be blanking don’t worry about that. He only scores pens and probably injured himself getting out of bed during the international break

        2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          I don't think he'll haul but I can't see him not scoring tbh

    WC DRAFT 191:

    Martinez
    Chilwell Cancelo Digne
    KDB Bruno Rashford Grealish
    Richarlison DCL Watkins

    Forster Soucek Kilman Lamptey

    Enough in the bank to do Rashford > Sterling for the City double GW10

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bench quite expensive but looks good. You going to offload both Digne and Richa in 3 weeks?

      1. IRBOX ⚽

        4.0 4.9 4.0 4.6 not really expensive though is it?

      Too much Everton, too much Utd. Both teams in poor form.

        😆 fixtures determine form
