    Would you rather get C Taylor and have 0.0 itb, or Lewis/Veltman/Kilman and leave a little in the bank in case you're just short of a future transfer?

      5 years, 4 months ago

      Just realised this is a new post... what an dull first comment!

      1. WWW.

        *a

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Kilman with funds itb

      1. FPL Theorist
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Not Kilman. At least Lewis is still getting minutes.

    3. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on rest of bench I guess. Need at least 2 ok ish subs

    4. Pegboy
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Lewis, but depends who you're rotating with.

    5. Groot the Leveller
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I just moved kilman out to a 4.5 as I want my bench players actually to be playing when I need them.
      4.4 Charlie Taylor is probably a better option than 4.5, but i like cheering Leeds

      1. Groot the Leveller
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        First 2 subs that is- 3.9 or even 3.8 now for remaining fodder

  2. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez
    Chilwell, KWP, Justin
    Salah, Son, Jota, Grealish, Mahrez
    Vardy, DCL

    Forster, Bamford, Coufal, Mitchell

    1ft, 2.0m itb

    Think i might save my FT and then next GW do Vardy & Mahrez > KDB & Wilson/Ings or punt Giroud?

    Thoughts?

    1. Tshelby
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      KDB and Ings would be really nice

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Ings GW12 looks good but 13 & 14 not so good 🙁

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

      Save and assess with flexibility of 2FT

    3. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      thanks for comments

  3. TheDragon
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Hi All - 1FT 1.7ITB

    Martinez
    Chilwell, Robertson, KWP
    KDB, Fernandes, Son, Grealish
    Wilson, Bamford, DCL
    Johnstone | Lamptey, Bissouma, Mitchell

    Is the move simply Fernandes -> Salah (potentially -4 next week to get Fernandes back in by downgrading Robertson?

    Anything better?

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

      If you want Salah in then yes that is probably the best move to make

  4. caldracula
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Ziyech > Pulisic
    Ziyech + Watkins > Mount + Bamford

    2FT 0.00

    Martinez
    Chilwell Cancelo Lampety
    Salah Sterling Grealish Ziyech
    Vardy DCL Watkins

    Steele, Coufal, Bissouma, Kilman

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I’m in the never ever own Mount camp so Pulisic

      1. caldracula
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Can’t see any better options around that price, other than Zaha maybe.

        1. TheDragon
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Zaha’s good fixtures have come to an end now so he isn’t for me.

          You won’t like it but Ziyech & Vardy -> Premium mid (Son or Fernandes) & Bamford?

          1. caldracula
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            Could do KDB & Bamford

          2. Groot the Leveller
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            I like this idea

      2. Pegboy
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I'm in the never own Mount or Pulisic camp.

    2. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't buy Pulisic before festive christmas period, to injury prone.

      Mount and Bamford in looks good.

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

      Not a fan of those moves. Consider transferring out Vardy to upgrade Ziyech to a premium mid

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

    A. Justin/Cancelo, Grealish and Vardy to max 4.1/4.8def, Salah and Bamford (343) -4
    B. Cancelo, Bissouma, DCL and Vardy to Dier, Salah, Bamford and Wickham (352) -8
    C. Son and Vardy to Salah and Bamford (343) WC GW16 and bring Son back in

    2FT 0.2itb
    Martinez
    Chilwell Justin Cancelo
    Son KDB Bruno Grealish
    DCL Vardy Watkins
    (Peacock Ayling Taylor Bissouma)

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

      Anyone?

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Just C

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

          Thanks. I'm leaning towards C. One too many hits in B to have that ideal midfield that I want.

  6. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Jota/Vardy -> Salah/Brewster?

    Removes my benching headache and gives me a great capt option this week but Vardy and Jota have great fixtures.

    A Yes do it for Salah C
    N No, just capt Son

    Would leave me with....

    Martinez
    Chilwell Zouma Dallas
    Salah Bruno KDB Son Grealish
    DCL Bamford

    Forster Lamptey Brewster Mitchell

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

      A

    2. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      It's a YES from me.

    3. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      1000% yes

    4. Corgz Dark side of the Loon

      A

    5. _Ninja_

    Thank Lord. Hope Wilson does not have COVID.

    Irrational move of getting him in 2 days ago might just work out

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      It's good news but not the full picture. Over 10 have tested positive - we don't know how many first team players or who. So the match might involve a weakened Toon side.

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Prime picking for Leeds players then. Bamford captain.

        1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          I think the 10 days isolation will be over by this weekend, certainly by Leeds.

          1. Zimo
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            They'll all be rusty and not everyone gets better after 10 days. We don't know when the players were tested positive either. Most could be 1 or 2 days before the aston villa match.

  8. Neo-Viper
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    F. Torres to who?

    A) Zaha
    B) JWP
    C) Suggest any other

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yuck

      Grealish if you don’t have him

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

      only Grealish in that price bracket

    3. Neo-Viper
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Already have Grealish.

      1. TheDragon
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Time to restructure then

  9. Bob B
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    DCL & Jota or Wilson & Grealish?

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

      WG

    2. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Fixtures means W&G

  10. Boleyn Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Morning All. Which option is best? Thanks in advance:

    Current team:

    McCarthy - 4m
    Walker-Peters - Justin - Chilwell - Ayling - Targett
    KDB - Grealish - Fernandes - Son - Bissouma
    DCL - Adams - Kane

    a) Fernandes & DCL > Salah & Bamford
    b) Son & DCL > Salah & Brewster
    c) Bissouma, DCL & Kane > Salah, Bamford & Brewster (no hit as would do transfers over next 2 GWs)

  11. Jdpz
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Bissouma+Kane+Tierney > Salah+Brewster+Lewis

    McCarthy Nyland
    Konsa Chilwell Taylor Tierney Justin
    KDB Son Bruno Jota Bissouma
    Kane DCL Bamford
    0.5m itb., 2 free transfers

    Any ideas?

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      No bench in the run up to Christmas is a bold strategy

      1. Jdpz
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I have wildcard

  12. AC Pilkington
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Is downgrading Chilwell to Dier worth it if I can upgrade Rodriguez to Bruno?

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Just about but I’d find another way than downgrading Chilwell

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

      Long term probably yes

  13. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Right Simple YES or NO for a -8 hit.

    Cancelo --> Vestergaard
    Foden --> KDB
    Kane --> Bamford

    A) Yes
    B) No

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wrong week for it

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

      No

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

      ye I kind of agree.

      What to do with Cancelo and Foden?

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

        Foden a priority to leave the team than Cancelo

        1. McSauce
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          also agree.

          Ward-prowse?

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

            In that price bracket, I'm not a huge fan in any of those options. Maybe take a punt on Raphina. Looks lively and great fixtures

  14. John Nerdelbaum
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on a move here

    Vardy and Ziyech > Wilson and Salah for a hit? If Newcastle's game goes ahead... 0.1 short of Ings

    Martinez
    Chilwell James Lamptey
    KDB Bruno Grealish *Ziyech*
    Vardy DCL Bamford

    Steer/Burke/Kilman/Mitchell 2m ITB

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yep - get it done

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

        +1

    2. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers

  15. tissae
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez
    Roberton Cresswell Chilwell
    KDB Bruno Grealish Ziyech
    Kane Bamford DCL

    Steer Lamptey Mitchell Bissouma

    2FT, 0.2itb

    How would you get Salah in this? Or should just go Ziyech -> Jota? What else would you change here?

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

      Probably Kane and Ziyech or KDB/Bruno and Ziyech. Jota will not cover Salah

    2. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Have to get Salah in my opinion.

      And so you have to downgrade Kane realistically (Robertson prob won’t give you enough cash?)

    3. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Has to be through Ziyech and whichever of KDB, Bruno, Kane you're happy getting rid of

  16. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Kane (C) a good option this week??

    Going without Salah, Mane or KDB!!

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

      Probably the next best option if going without those

  17. LC1
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone else in the same situation that their attackers and playing against all their defenders?

    Chilwell James v J Rod DCL
    Lamptey v Vardy
    Coufal v Bamford

    No idea who to start!

    Currently with;

    Martinez
    James Chilwell Coufal
    Salah(c) KDB Grealish JRod
    Bamford Vardy DCL

    Steer Lamptey Bissouma Mitchell

    Any suggestions are much appreciated!

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Play all the attackers and I'd just go on CS odds to decide between Couf and Lamptey

    2. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Start your Chelsea and Everton boys. Even if Chelsea concede, there’s a decent chance James/Chillwell will get something going forward.

      Play Vardy of course and Bamford. I’d bench Coufal and play Lamptey.

  18. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Suggestions? 2ft and 0.3itb. Current team:

    Martinez
    KWP Ayling Coufal
    Salah KDB Sterling Son Grealish
    DCL Watkins

    Forster; Brewster, Lamptey, Kilman

    1. seanmcging
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Sterling & Watkins to Bruno & Bamford? Maybe wait for GW13, could just do Watkins to Bamford this week.

  19. seanmcging
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on the next few GW moves:

    GW12 - Ziyech & Wilson > Son & Bamford (-4)
    GW13 - Kane & Burke > Bruno & Brewster (-4)

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

      Looks good

    2. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah those look decent

  20. Yankee Toffee
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Is this the best time to play my UCL fantasy WC? Last day of group stages. Cheers

  21. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Zouma has scored double the number of goals than Aubameyang

    1. AuFeld
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Ouch.

    2. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah but Zouma missed a game which why it's only double.

  22. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone else going without Salah?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Never again

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      50-50 as of now. Paying 12.3 for one player is just argh...

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Its more than Bamford and Watkins combined 😆

  23. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    We're on GW12......and I've taken 40 points worth of hits....is there a special place where folks like me can go to rehabilitate themselves?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      If it were me, I'd just go mental on hits now for rest of year.
      I've just taken my first and feel bad enough.

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Start with doing transfers closer to the deadline.

    3. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      How many points r u on?

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        613 - it’s been my worst season

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Don't worry about it. U can still get a good rank easily. I'm on 614 with 68 points worth of hits so far. My team is insane now. I'll be climbing the ranks soon.

          1. DannyDrinkVodka
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            Now that’s what I like to hear

    4. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      With your username and addiction to hits, I’d look up Betty Ford or Gamblers Anonymous

    5. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      How many of those 10 trades would you say have paid off?

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Maybe 20 percent

  24. Jamb0
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Would you do Vardy + Jota -> Watkins + B.Fernandez for free?

    It's tempting but would mean having to bench one of Watkins, Bamford or Grealish each week...

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Then don't - rather Bruno than Vardy though.

      Bench headache is not worth it

    Is this mad?

    Ziyech, Rodriguez, Vardy ->

    Bamford, KDB and Grealish for -8?

    I think over the next 4-5 GW I’ll recoup the lost points.

      I don't think so. I think the potential is higher for the players coming in so I probably would do those moves

        That’s what I thought, gives me solid players that will return all season I reckon.

      Over 4- 5 weeks I think you're right

        Thanks.

        Consider it done.

    Start 2.

    Fofana Targett Lamptey

    Desperately need to sort my defense out.

      Fofana and Lamptey and hope for a repeat of last year’s score

      Hmm. Wolves a bit toothless now, but by the same token, Villa have forgotten how to defend.
      Play Fofana and Lamptey if you are watching that game.

    Had a -8 moment of madness:

    Jesus > Bamford
    Hames > Son
    Bruno > Salah

    Onwards and upwards, I hope!

      I think (C) Salah will recover that 8 points anyway! Go for it.

      The after picture does look better than the before shot.

    Mccarthy
    Chilwell, Coufal, Lamptey
    Salah, Kdb, Son, Grealish, Jota
    Dcl, Vardy

    Brewster, Philips, Mithcel
