    Had a dream Chilwell started and James on the bench. Arsenal scored and Chilly got injured again very early, then James came on and got an assist, CS and max bonus. So I'm starting James.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…

      3 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks, I'll put him in then.
      Oh...........

      Did Zouma get the goal off the James assist?

    3. King Carlos
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Had a dream that ars-che will end 1-2 and willian will score... so not gonna happen

      Bookmark that dream - there will come a time

    6. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I had a dream I found the Holy Grail, then a rude frenchman farted in my general direction!

    7. The Final Boss
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      It was a similar dream that injured James when i transferred James in..please not again..

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

      I am starting both with Robertson. Coufal and Balbuena on the bench.

  2. BeWater
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Come on Kev. It's time for that monster haul we've all been waiting for.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      12 good enough?

      1. BeWater
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I want something like Norwich at home last day of the season.

      2. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        15 at least

    2. Salan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Hope so.

    3. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kev who?

  3. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Just sold Grealish.
    Crazy

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Crazy

    2. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      for who?

      1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Soucek.

        But allows me to bring in kane in gw16 for dcl

        1. Pep bites Kun
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yep, fair enough. Grealish fixtures get tough next week

    3. Alnair
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Depends for who. El Ghazi arguably the better option if you're buying back a Villa attacker.

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

        Lol no it is...

    4. AC Yew
      • 5 Years

      Likewise.

  4. The Polymath

    Good luck everyone who has he same players as me!

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

      Doesn’t matter much - it’s all about captaincy

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        This.

      2. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        OK

        Good luck everyone who has he same players as me and the same captain!

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years

    And soon there will be thousands of WC drafts for the next 2 days!

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nah, Raffa the Gaffer isn't on his WC any more.

  7. Fulchester's New Centr…
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Please help. Really confused.

    Pope
    TAA, Robbo, Cancelo
    Salah (c), KDB, Bruno, Son, Mane
    Kun, Kane
    Martinez, Soucek, Cresswell, Chilwell

    5 mill ITB, WC and all chips available

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      WC GW16. i.e. now.

      Look at Ben Crellin's twitter for what to do. He posted his WC team and plan.

      1. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Crellin colours in spreadsheets and predicts fixture rearrangements badly. Why would you copy his WC team?

      2. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks Diesel. GL this week.
        As I say to my son, make sure you read the whole of the question.

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      1/10

    3. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kdb to Rodri
      Mane to Noble
      Kane to Lee Bradbury for -12

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks. Was between Bradbury and Darren Huckerby for that final slot.

    4. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years

      4 Liverpool, try again

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Sorry. Mane should be peak Ronaldo.

        1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Nice

  8. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Playing safe this GW. Salah(c). With three GWs in a short period you can really screw up your season by overthinking it. Gt through Christmas period relatively unscathed is the safe play and then look forward to the BGW/DGW and the second half of the season.

  9. Muchentuchel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    differential time! Capped Salah!

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…

    3. OverTinker

    4. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years

      Ah love it

    3. Alnair
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Remember to activate it on Monday so you transfers count toward price rises.

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Didn't get you! Please explain!

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

          WC transfers don't add to price changes. Regular one's does.
          So activating WC later would help players you signed getting priced up earlier

          1. Pep Roulette
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Oh alright! Cheers Amey!

      2. Debauchy
        • 11 Years

        Not worth the risk especially at this time of the year , many will forget , happens often.

  14. Flair
    • 3 Years

    This will probably be a good week for most, it's the upcoming few where it really gets chaotic

    This will be remembered as the Grealish & KDB GW !

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Salah.

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

        That's given bro.
        A flat track bully vs flattest track in Prem 😎

    2. Flair
      • 3 Years

      I like your premonitions of the future Amey

      1. Amey

      Who's your cap amey?

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

        I'm a sheep

        Salalalalah 😉

        1. fish&chips
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Haha me too. Really wanted to give it to KDB but then I asked myself if I had to stake all of my belongings on Salah or KDB to score most points who would it be and there was no doubt really

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

            Same feelings. Not worth the risk. I have a feeling KDB haul Would be enough for a big green arrow. Especially as so many sold him this GW. Also no hit for me. All helps.
            GL mate 🙂

    4. AC Yew
      • 5 Years

    Lol @ Salah Cappers

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

      What?

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Too early for this......

    3. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No Salah today confirmed

  20. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    waiting for the late requests for transfer advice 🙂

    1. EffPeeEll
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      ...and with an immaculate birth and Jesus down with Covid you'll still get people asking what they should do for game week 19 and 19.

      £one game a t a time sweet jesus"

    2. EffPeeEll
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      *18 and 19

  21. SHOOTER MCGINN
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    KDB due to go down in price on the day he scores 18 points. Fools.

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      If he scores 18 points to today people will start buying so he probably won't drop.

  22. Londongeezaa
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    So basically, captain Salah scoring will mean nothing for your rank this week?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      it will mean you don’t drop though

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

        Imagine getting 25 points from you captain just to stay where you are.

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          then you are backing your other players ... every decent house has good foundations

    2. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on where you're stationed, he has like ~40% ownership OR

    3. Alnair

      Nah it'll be big if you've got a bad rank, but within the Top 500k or so it probably won't matter.

      If he has 200% EO no. Don’t think its that high.

    Sounds outrageous but is this worth a -8?

    Grealish/Zaha/Targett > Son/Raphinha/Taylor

      Can you not stagger these pre and post Monday’s deadline?

    2. marcos11

      Was considering
      Zaha/Grealish > Son/Raphinha for -4 this week

      And Targett > Taylor with my ft next week but i could do with Taylor at Shu for next gw but he’s not a necessity

    McCarthy
    Dias, AWB, Justin
    Salah, KDB, Bruno, Son, Soucek
    DCL, Bamford

    Forster, Lamptey, Mitchell, Alaze

    2 FT, 0.6m ITB

    Is this worth a hit ?

    KDB, Alaze Mitchell to Kane, Dier, Bissouma

    The plan would then be Salah to KDB (C) GW18, KDB back to Salah (TC) GW19, giving me 8 in GW18 including 5 City/Spurs, 7 DGWers and 4 City/Spurs in DGW19, and it strengthens my bench.

        It for GW16

          losing KDB before NEW would be madness.

          may see what happens this week first ? injuries, Covid etc ?

    Drank too much wine and woke up at 11:04, iirc Chilwell and Lamptey were still in my team... Oops

      Was my birthday yesterday.
      Started on champagne ,follow by wine then Heiniken and finished with Baileys.
      Needless to say not in the best shape.

    Last minute dilemma, who to captain ?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      not quite last minute 😉

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Too late.

      Have you cast your Brexit vote yet?

      I back Salah's chances vs Newcastle

  27. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Even though I have no bench I low-key hope Salah is somehow not in the match-day squad. Having a captain that is universally captained is boring. Plus I think KdB is clearly the 2nd best captain this week and most don't have him.

    1. Hazz

      I hate jam so even with KDB (VC) no thank you!

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

        Jam makes me sick

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

      Why would he not be in squad ?
      I have enough backup so not worried. Just amazed

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        He'll start unless something completely unexpected happens like a warm-up injury.

        Just gonna be a bit of a boring week imo with everyone capping Salah.

    3. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Took a -4 to bring him in and I have no bench. KDB is a differential in of itself...i'm certainly not hoping he is not in the match day squad

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

      Yes that’s what I want too

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

      There's pretty much 0% chance of that since he's already had Covid and he's been rested already lol

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I didn't say he was going to be left out. Just that it would make this gameweek more interesting and probably will be better for rank gain.

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

          I see what you mean, it makes more decisions matter like VC and first sub which probably benefits better fpl managers so good point 🙂

      What’s his EO?

  28. Vazza
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Was it sensible to start Soucek (BHA) over Taylor (lee)?

    1. Right In The Stanchion
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yea

    2. Alnair
      • 7 Years

      Pool, City United and Chelsea all failed to keep a CS vs Leeds...

      1. Vazza
        • 3 Years

        That’s great. Never thought of that. Thanks

    On my WC and it took me days before finally picked KDB+Abraham over Son+Firmino.. hope it works
