Scout Network

Which players are the Scout Network picking for Double Gameweeks 24 and 25?

Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers are currently assessing who are the best Manchester City, Everton, Burnley and Fulham assets to own ahead of Double Gameweek 24, as well as Southampton and Leeds players ahead of their double in Gameweek 25.

We asked the Scout Network for their views on who we should invest in ahead of the Double Gameweeks.

FPL Family

The news of Double Gameweeks in 24 and 25 came at a good time for me as I was about to make a goalkeeper transfer. However, with Southampton playing twice in Gameweek 25, I’ve decided to hold Alex McCarthy (£4.6m) and upgrade my second goalkeeper to Nick Pope (£5.5m). This way I have a goalkeeper playing twice in each of the next two Gameweeks.

While most FPL managers will rightly flock to Manchester City assets as a result of their matches against Spurs and Everton, for me there are other teams who have slightly better fixtures and players who are far less of a rotation risk.

Going into Gameweek 24, Man City have an FA Cup fixture away at Swansea. Following their double, they then go straight into a match away at Arsenal in Gameweek 25, and then a round of 16 fixture away at Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Champions League. This accounts for five fixtures in just 14 days. It is highly likely Pep roulette will be in full swing and as a result, I’m likely to invest more heavily in other options.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.6m) has returned in each of his last two Premier League games and with the creative elements in the Everton team now back to full fitness, I suspect he will have numerous opportunities to do well in Gameweek 24. In fact, he is highly likely to be my captain as a result of a nice opening game against Fulham and a lack of rotation risk.

Burnley defenders also look like great options. Ben Mee (£5.0m), Matthew Lowton (£4.4m) and James Tarkowski (£5.3m), as well as Pope, all offer the potential of two clean sheets. Pope also ranks second for saves inside the box so the chances of a bonus point or two in a low-scoring, clean sheet game are good.

Mee also offers some potential in terms of attacking returns, having registered a goal in Gameweek 20.

El Statto

We are now entering a fun part of the season when different strategies come into play depending on what chips you have left.

I will be going into Gameweek 24 with six Double Gameweek players, which I feel comfortable with as I need to keep half an eye on future weeks and doubles.

Manchester City are the form team and I’ll have three of their players in my team for Gameweek 24, although I half expect rotation will hit so getting two games will feel like a bonus!

I brought Nick Pope in last week ahead of his double. I think he’ll be a popular choice and hopefully he can get one clean sheet and a few save points across his two games.

For Gameweek 25, I’m not too worried about loading up. I expect Leeds’ attackers, Patrick Bamford (£6.7m), Raphinha (£5.3m) and Jack Harrison (£5.4m) to return best for them. Stuart Dallas (£4.8m) playing in midfield might be worth a punt too.

Southampton are on a shocking run currently, largely due to injuries, so I really wouldn’t be looking at them much. Danny Ings (£8.4m) and Che Adams (£5.8m) are out of form and their defence has been badly affected by injuries.

If you wanted a punt I would go for James Ward Prowse (£6.0m). He has four free-kick goals already and is on corners and set pieces so also has the chance of an assist.

In terms of chip usage, I’ve yet to decide when I will Wildcard but at the moment I’m torn between using the Bench Boost in Gameweek 26 or my Triple Captain. I will do some planning on the planner once Gameweek 26 doubles are confirmed to see which suits me best.

FPL Experiment

Finally, we get to the point of the season where we’ve assembled a squad that we’re happy with – and then along comes Gameweeks 24 and 25!

Nick Pope is a player we’d love to bring in. Burnley’s defence has been notoriously brilliant for FPL managers in past seasons and the Double Gameweek 24 fixtures against Crystal Palace and Fulham look like great opportunities for clean sheets.

However, Emiliano Martinez (£5.2m) has been churning out consistent returns for The FPL Experiment with regularity since October and we’re reluctant to say goodbye. 

With Charlie Taylor (£4.4m) on the verge of returning, Erik Pieters (£4.3m) seems a risky pick. So we’ve considered Matt Lowton who looks like a nice cheap route into that Burnley defence instead of Pope.

The other consideration for us is Lucas Digne (£6.1m), who has the second-highest assists for a defender, despite missing a third of the season.

We have Joao Cancelo (£6.0m), Luke Shaw (£4.9m) and Aaron Cresswell (£5.7m) as our three starting defenders though and given that they all have good fixtures in Gameweek 24, it’s hard to see us making any moves at the back unless any injuries crop up. 

Given the fixtures, we’re attracted to a Manchester City midfield double up for Gameweek 24. Everton’s defence looks leaky and despite City’s poor recent record against Spurs, Pep’s side are unbeaten in 21 games in all competitions since they lost 2-0 to Tottenham in November.

We already have Ilkay Gündogan (£5.9m), so it’s deciding who takes the second City midfield spot. Given recent performances, there are two front runners for us. Phil Foden (£6.1m) showed against Liverpool he’s a match-winner and worthy of consideration, while Raheem Sterling (£11.6m) has four goals in his last five Premier League starts, making him harder to ignore. 

Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s return to form brings him into our thinking.

We already have three Leeds players, which we’re delighted about ahead of Double Gameweek 25. The problem will be deciding which of those assets to bench this week. Benching Patrick Bamford could be heartbreaking! Decisions, decisions. 

FPL Experiment

FPL Froggies

We at FPL Froggies are increasingly pessimistic about Double Gameweeks and in every passing season we tend to progressively lower the importance we give to double fixtures.

For example, integrate Player A for a Double Gameweek, that will give you an extra three points compared to your previous player. But you will end up keeping that player for eight Gameweeks because there’s always a more urgent move to do and your previous player will crush the game in that time. Been there before, too many times.

However, there is a huge argument to play punts anyway this time. Most of us still have our Wildcard, and a lot of us will play it on or around Gameweek 25, to prepare a fully loaded Double Gameweek 26 side.

If we make changes these will likely be the players we target.

Goalkeepers

Ederson (£6.1m) and Nick Pope should provide the most points (especially if Pep puts Ederson on penalties), however our strategy means we rarely invest in an expensive goalkeeper. Therefore we would probably go for Fulham’s Alphonse Areola (£4.5m), who kept a clean sheet against West Ham in Gameweek 23.

Defenders

Most FPL managers will go big at the back with Man City assets, however Frenchman Lucas Digne should provide the best return on investment, and could turn into a long-term pick as a result of his attacking potential.

Midfielders

Raheem Sterling is the best pick in midfield for his captaincy potential, even with the rotation risk. For a budget choice, in case you already own Ilkay Gundogan, Ademola Lookman (£5.0m) is your man. While Lookman hasn’t produced an attacking return since Gameweek 19, he was unlucky not to in Gameweek 23 where he created plenty of opportunities.

Forwards

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has proved this season he can maintain his productivity against the top six sides, so he should be in most teams now. If you don’t already own him, then a Double Gameweek against Fulham and Man City looks like a good time to invest in the Everton striker, especially with all of the Toffees’ creative players now back in the starting eleven.

What’s happening in the Scout Network?

Scout Network: Thinking ahead to the blank and double Gameweek in 18 and 19

Last week, FPL Family‘s Sam was joined by Adam, Nick and Greg from the FPL Experiment. This week, Sam is joined by Alex and Charles from FPL Chip Chat to discuss Double Gameweek 24.

El Statto

El Statto’s final competition of the season, “The El Statto Cup“, began in Gameweek 22 and runs right through to the end of the campaign. El Statto has an amazing number of members from the FPL community taking part this season.

It has also been another busy and successful week for Jumpers for Goalposts with an article looking at differential picks for the upcoming Gameweeks, as well as the launch of a new series of weekly articles with a snapshot focus on a particular FPL asset. The first article looked at Manchester United’s Luke Shaw.

El Statto also released his Gameweek 23 article for the Back to the FPL Future series. The series looks back at past matches to highlight players who have a tendency to score well against their opponents.

FPL Family

Lee and Sam had a busy week last week. Sam appeared on the Official FPL Podcast, while Lee was in the studio for Thursday night’s Official FPL Show. The FPL Family also released an FPL Family x video with Nathan Jobling, who was their Manager of the Month for January.

Sam also recorded some content with the Premier League looking at women in FPL, which will be available on both the Premier League channels as well as on the FPLFamily YouTube channel in due course.

FPL Experiment

Adam, Nick and Greg from the FPL Experiment appeared on this week’s Scout the Gameweek podcast from the Scout Network with Sam from FPL Family.

They also recorded their own weekly podcast ahead of the Gameweek 23 deadline.

    if i have martinez and johnstone, does it make sense to do :

    A martinez to pope for free
    B johnstone to pope for free
    C save trasfer

    1. 2OLEgend
      • 3 Years

      B

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not A.

      B if you have BB to use at some point.

      1. Lord Flashheart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        i don't any more...

    3. No Professionals

      100% C, don't waste your transfer. A is the best keeper pick and will be the man you want for the rest of the season. You don't want a 5.5 on your bench tying up funds, or having to use transfers (and probably hits to undo it).

      the upside of Pope v Martinez for this week is probably 8 points, not worth it IMO.

      unless you plan a wildcard in the next couple of weeks.

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Last sentence suggests it’s not 100% C then

        1. No Professionals
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I mean it’s 100% based on the info he gave

          1. Pat Bonner
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Fair enough. I think there’s upside in B but like you say you’ll probably want to be wcing soon

            1. No Professionals
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              yeah i think there is 1 week of upside, up to 8 points, but without a wildcard you'd probably burn that undoing the transfer.

  3. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Robertson to Cancelo for a -4 worth it?

    1. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

  4. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Which plan would you choose:

    1. 24: Martin Stephens to Pope Hamez -4 and BB with Martinez Robo Justin Bamford -> WC 25 -> TC 26

    2. 24: Robo to Lowton -> WC 25 -> BB/TC 26 - save one chip for later

    Or maybe even without WC 25 in both

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      1

  5. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Does anyone else feel this Arsenal away fixture should really suit Leeds style?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I do.

    2. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      What's your thinking? My instinct is the opposite - prior game was low-scoring and I can see Arsenal being pretty cautious.

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I envisage something similar to the Villa away game for Leeds earlier in the season.
        I think there will be too much movement in the Leeds attacking play for Arsenal to deal with.

        1. Baines on Toast...
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          To be fair it was amazing they didn’t concede a lot in that Villa game.

    3. tom_p77
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yep.

      I’m likely going to play Bamford & Raph and bench Son

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cool, thinking about BB

      2. 'Broadsword Calling Da…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I have benched Son too (for Bamford).

    4. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’m benching Bamford, so might rethink

    5. No Professionals
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I actually thought Leeds were pretty poor last night, the defence and Phillips gave the ball away a lot, a team that had any amount of attacking quality would have taken them apart.

  6. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I only have BB and TC left so what players do I need to prioritise getting in for this team for the next few GWs (24 - 26) apart from Gundogan

    Martinez Johnstone

    Dias Coufal Stones Mee Dallas

    Salah Rashford Saka Fernandes Soucek

    Watkins DCL Wilson

    2.7 ITB 2 FTs

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Some Spuds. One of Son/Kane I’d say

    2. AC Yew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Leeds: Raphina and Bamford for the double

  7. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Stumped on what to do for next week though tbh. 6DGW already, but 5 are defenders. Probably Gundo(c). 2FT 4.5 ITB. Antonio/Watkins to DCL? Anything else/extra? Thanks as always guys! 🙂

    Areola (Martinez)
    Cancelo Stones Digne Mee (Dallas)
    Salah Bruno Son Gundogan(c) (Soucek)
    Antonio Bamford (Watkins)

    Feels tough benching any of the front 8 this week, and getting DCL not gonna help with that (particularly if I sell Watkins)

    Have WC and TC left

  8. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bench boost?

    Martinez | Bamford | Dallas | Cresswell

    1. Fudgy
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'll have the same bench but Coufal over Dallas. I'm really considering it

    2. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes 100%

    3. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Go for it

    4. DB_00
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Just think there will be better times to use it personally.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Two high scoring Leeds players vs toothless Arsenal and the top scoring GK & defender in the game. And Cresswell vs SHU.

        1. DB_00
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Imo to maximise the BB chip you use it in a DGW when your bench will have 2-3 extra games as opposed to the 4 in a SGW. It could work obviously but it could a be a huge waste with a big DGW round the corner too.

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

            But you can't do it. All the Leeds players in GW25 (which you should aim to buy, hamstring you for GW26 doubles).

            1. DB_00
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              But you can just take a hit to take them out if you bought 2, or keep one (Bamford) and still bench boost no?

          2. Jafooli
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Fair point

          3. AD2110
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah I agree with this. Think best time would be to use it for the upcoming double

        2. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Thanks all

  9. 007 [RoboKlopp]
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    32 pts on bench.
    Buy Pope and Mee and playing them instead of Martinez and Dallas.
    DWG fever lol...

  10. AD2110
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    With BB and WC left surely the most sensible strategy would be to build a team for 26, BB in 26, then build a team for blank 29 and then WC afterwards?

    That way with BB out the way you can invest in the strongest 11 without having to leave money/points on the bench every week

  11. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Martinez, Coufal, Dallas and Bamford worth a bench boost? TC looks best in 26. I feel that bench should get 20 pts

  12. Rhodes your boat

    3 years, 1 month ago

    1FT 4.6itb what to doooo

    Martinez
    Stones coufal rudiger lowton
    Salah sterling Bruno son
    Antonio bamford

    Forster soucek Mitchell davis

  13. Silicon Vialli

    For WC
    A) Rash and DCL
    Or
    B) Fernandes and Watkins
    ?

    1. mcsteely

      B(runo)

  14. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Feels mad going from 3 Hammers to 0... but if I do Antonio to DCL this week and Soucek to Raphinha next week, that’s exactly what will happen (already done Coufal to Mee)

    1. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Going the same way, although plan to keep Cresswell as he’s an attacker & defender....

  15. Rhodes your boat
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Got FH WC BB and TC left! When do I use them?!

    1. DB_00
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Team dependent but the best strategy for you is probably WC25, BB26, FH29 and TC24/27

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

        I don't know why people recommend WC25, BB26.

        It doesn't work. If you build a good team for GW25, you take away from your BB in 26 and vice versa.

        1. mcsteely
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          what does this mean? As in the Leeds and Sou players won't have a double in 26?

          1. aleksaa2
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Leeds won't have a double, Soton maybe

        2. aleksaa2
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Why, you can have two Leeds players (Bamford and Raphinha) for gw25 and take a hit to remove them both in gw26. Taking one hit in a big dgw and BB is far from a bad thing to do. You also don't need toa keep Leeds players for the bgw29 because you have a FH.

          1. mcsteely
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            That's what I'm thinking. Build a WC25 with 2 Leeds players, get them out for BB26.

            You'll lose some possible upside on the 25double, but gain some on the 26BB.#

            I'm looking at a balance, maybe with 3/4 Leeds/Sou players to balance between the two doubles

            1. DB_00
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              I agree. If you really want triple Leeds in 25, you can always keep one on your bench as their game isn't the worst either.

            2. aleksaa2
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              I agree too and I don't think you'll lose anything with the way Soton is playing now. In addition to that, most of the people will have one Soton player (probably McCarthy because they already have him and maybe bring Ings in) and two or three Leeds.

        3. DB_00
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Why? You take the Leeds guys out on a hit no? Both out if you just get 2, or 2 out and keep one (Bamford). Their game is Villa who they beat 3-0 in the reverse so it isn't going to take away from your team in 26 imo.

          1. mcsteely
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I'm looking at a WC with Bamford, Ings, Raph and Dallas. Use a hit to lose Ings to Watkins and Dallas to Rudiger maybe. Or is that too playing 26 too weakly?

            1. DB_00
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              I would keep Ings and sell Bamford as Ings could double in 26. that means with the Dallas sub only Raph won't double leaving 14 DGW players which is more than enough for a BB.

        4. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Why would it not work. You could have 3 Leeds and take a -4 to remove 2 of them?

    Man City no further issues in the squad for the trip west to Swansea.

    Aguero back in training.

    So am I right in understanding that Gw26 will likely also be a big double? Do we know who’s likely to play?

    Cos if WC remaining, I suppose then might be a good time for me to reshuffle team accordingly and help take funds off the bench

      Most teams can double in 26. Wait on FA cup results this midweek. Leeds look unlikely to have one though

      1. Kitman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        This is the one thing preventing me from a Leeds load up in 25

    Which other DGWers should I get. I already have:-

    Stones Cancelo Gundogan Lowton DCL and have 2 FT's and £2.3m ITB

    Rest of team is

    McCarthy (Button)
    Mitchell Dallas
    Salah Son Grealish Bruno
    Bamford Antonio

    1. mcsteely
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Button to Pope?
      Salah to Rodriguez?

    I’m wildcarding next week... might have to get Ederson.

    1. Jafooli
      • 12 Years

      I honestly think he’ll be given the next penalty. Would be a typically Pep thing to do.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Nah. I love the idea but Pep told us years ago that his best pen taker is Ederson and he’s never taken one.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It'll be hilarious when Ederson's pen gets saved, and the opposing GK boots it down into an empty net for a pen save + goal in same match

    Anyone reckon Leicester can keep Liverpool from scoring?

    1. Mr. O'Connell

      Probably

    2. Rupert The Horse

      That’s funny. My sister is in W1A and one of my good friends Javone is in Phone Shop. Jessica Hynes managed to work her way in to sharing my cab back from a house party in Cape Town, and I’m pretty sure she’s insane.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        That’s why I asked you - we discussed your sister being in W1A before 😉

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Ah yeah I thought that might be possible but that was years ago I thought. British comedy definitely seems to have rolled back.

          1. Jafooli
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah, can’t find anything decent now. Those were some prime years....

            1. Jafooli
              • 12 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              W1A & Twenty Twelve were just steady throughout, high quality.

              Phone Shop still has some of my favourite scenes of all time - was so under rated and utterly mad....

          Ooh wait what about Afterlife?
          First season is very good, second isn’t quite there but still likes it.

          1. Jafooli
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Tried it....not great

  22. ajk1211

    Feedback on the below appreciated. 2FTS and 3.2m itb

    Pope (Martinez)
    Stones Dias Coufal Cresswell Dallas
    Gundo Salah Bruno Son (Bissouma)
    Antonio Bamford DCL

    Thinking Son/Stones -> Sterling/Mee

  23. timawflowers
    • 6 Years

    which move to make please
    a - sterling in for Salah
    b - sterling and shaw in for son and chillwell

    People on here seem to confusing Arsenal v Leeds with Altrincham v Barcelona.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah true. Barcelona are way out of form, 8 points behind Athletico, played an extra game and have gotten rid of Suarez who is smashing it with the top of the table side.

      FFS message board in "being full of utter guff and nonsense for a change" shocker

  25. Riverside Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play which one of the following:

    a) Creswell (SHU)
    b) Bamford (ARS)
    c) Barnes (LIV)

    1. 2OLEgend
      • 3 Years

      1. mcsteely
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I think Cresswell, only because I have to bench Bamford as my weakest attacker, and play Cresswell as my third strongest defender

    2. Kitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cresswell home to sheffield Utd please

  26. Netters2018

    What to do with this lot, assuming no issues from FA cup got 1 FT 0.4 itb.

    Benching headaches also not helping, so wondering if I should use my BB.

    Thinking DDG to Pope + no BB
    or -4 Button to Areola and Coufal to Lowton + BB.

    Have all my chips left currently, could do with some help.

    DDG
    Cancelo, Stones, Digne
    Son, Grealish, Gundogan, Salah, Bruno
    DCL (c) Antonio
    Bench - Bamford, Coufal, Dallas, GK - Button

    1. Gowiththeflow
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Just Button to Areola, play Coufal + BB

  27. Reeker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Martinez
    Dias - Cancelo - Coufal
    Salah - Grealish - Fernandes - Gundogan
    DCL - Antonio - Bamford

    (PF) (Soucek - Robertson - Dallas)

    2 FT - 3.6m ITB

    If WCing 25. (Haven't decided)

    Peacock-Farrell -> Pope
    Robertson -> (best Burnley defender)

  28. Simon69
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    G2G? Unsure who I'll stick the armband on - Would be Foden if he was guaranteed gametime in both.

    Pope

    Cancelo, Stones, Mee, Maguire

    Foden, Fernandes, Salah

    Antonio, Bamford, Watkins

    Subs: Martinez, Soucek, Maddison, Mitchell

    1. Kitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      might be tempted with Soucek over Watkins

      1. Simon69
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Actually torn between playing Maguire or Soucek atm. I know WBA are shite but United were shocking at the back vs Everton.

  29. Kitman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Hi All,

    I'm rocking just the 2 man city defenders this GW so want to bring in Gundo but

    do i do ;

    1) Son > Gundo (bad fixture but i want Son back very soon after)
    2) Soucek > Gundo (good long term but could hurt me vs Sheffield Utd)
    3) Maddison > Gundo (Unsure as Maddison is decent enoguh to keep for the forseeable)

  30. KirkhamWesham
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Am I gtg?

    Martinez
    Cancelo AWB Dias Cresswell
    Salah Bruno Gundogan Soucek
    Antonio DCL

    Meslier Raphinha Watkins Dallas

    5.6m itb
