FPL’s joint-cheapest player hauls as Hodgson discusses benching of Guaita

CRYSTAL PALACE 3-2 ASTON VILLA

by Colm Hayes

  • Goals: Christian Benteke (£5.5m), Wilfried Zaha (£7.2m), Tyrick Mitchell (£3.8m) | John McGinn (£5.5m), Anwar El Ghazi (£5.2m)
  • Assists: Mitchell, Eberechi Eze (£5.8m) x2 | Ollie Watkins (£6.5m)
  • Bonus: Mitchell x3, Eze x2, Benteke x1

MITCHELL-IN STAR DISPLAY

Despite this being a low-key game for many reasons, FPL always has the ability to create joy (and pain in equal measure) despite the occasion.

Tyrick Mitchell (£3.8m) owners will have been particularly exuberant on Sunday afternoon.

It was already looking like a decent day at half-time for the budget defender, who will have made many starting XIs due to the Blank Gameweek 36 schedule.

The left-back, on his fourth consecutive league start, gained a first-half assist after Christian Benteke (£5.5m) headed his cross past Emi Martinez (£5.4m).

“It’s been an amazing season. It’s been a dream come true and I’m just buzzing. I didn’t think I would feature this much and I’m just thankful to the manager. I’ve learnt a lot, how hard it is in the Premier League week in, week out but I feel I’ve got a lot more confident.” – Tyrick Mitchell

But the best was yet to come, as Mitchell popped up in the box on 84 minutes to shoulder home Eberechi Eze‘s (£5.8m) shot to give Palace all three points.

“I was just gambling. I tried to go back post for the first cross and then when it went back out I thought I’d stay around. I just tried to be in the right place. I knew it hit my shoulder, for a second I was a bit scared [it would be disallowed].” – Tyrick Mitchell

That winning strike also earned Mitchell three bonus points, much to the further delight of his owners – who only had to endure a quick VAR check for handball before the goal was given.

On the defender, Hodgson said after full time:

Tyrick Mitchell got a round of applause when he walked into the room. That is something more deserving than that. His performance today was outstanding in every respect. To get an assist and the winner against a team of Aston Villa’s quality – happy days for him. Second half he combined extremely well with Eze and (Wilfried) Zaha. Often a part of chances.

He has got in the team before and had to drop out through injury. What he needs now is an injury-free period but he has all the qualities I think needed to be a very good Premier League left-back.

GET THE GUAITA

Vicente Guaita (£4.8m) was among the substitutes for the first time since 2018/19, with Jack Butland (£4.5m) handed a rare run-out:

Ahead of kick-off, Roy Hodgson said of his goalkeeping selection:

Jack Butland, we wanted to make certain he got a game, at least, before the end of the season. So Vicente stepped aside for him.

The operative words from that Hodgson quote are “at least”; one could read into the manager’s comments that may Butland earn another start over the final two Gameweeks of the season.

In his post-match press conference, Hodgson added:

Not a question of rotating the keepers at this moment. Vicente has been the No 1 keeper but it’s nice to know that the faith we have in Jack to play, nice to see that justified. He’s had to wait a long time. (Butland was) good, very good. Made one wonder-save, think it was offside anyway. But I thought he was very good.

SHOTS FIRED

While FPL bosses may not be targeting either of these teams for their assets, there is encouragement for attacking players facing both sides.

Between them, the two defences allowed over 40 efforts on goal during their Blank Gameweek 36 clash.

Crystal Palace face Arsenal (H) and Liverpool (a) in their final two matches of the season, while Aston Villa take on Spurs (a) and Chelsea (H).

The defensive displays from both sides in Gameweek 36 bode particularly well for those planning to captain Spurs and Liverpool players – namely Harry Kane (£11.8m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) – in Gameweeks 37 and 38, respectively.

While investment is unlikely at this stage, Jack Grealish (£7.5m) could make the Villa XI for one of those two matches.

The midfielder was brought on after 63 minutes on Sunday, earning around a half-hour of pitch time.

Asked if Grealish will start in one of Gameweek 37 or Gameweek 38, Dean Smith responded:

I’m hopeful. He’s pushing, he’s had no reaction in his first game (against Everton) or today so he’s building those minutes.

Matt Cash (£5.0m) is out for the remainder of the season, while Tyrone Mings (£5.4m) is expected back for Gameweek 37.

“Cashy will miss the last two games. It is a recurrence of a hamstring injury. Nowhere near as bad as last time but enough to put him out for a couple of weeks. Tyrone should be fit for Wednesday.” – Dean Smith


Crystal Palace XI (4-3-3): Butland; Mitchell, Cahill, Kouyaté, Ward; Schlupp, McCarthy (Tomkins 73′), Eze; Zaha, Benteke, Townsend.

Aston Villa XI (4-2-3-1): Martínez; Targett, Hause, Konsa, Elmohamady; McGinn, D Luiz; El Ghazi (Wesley 87′), Ramsey (Davis 85′), B Traoré (Grealish 63′); Watkins.


SUNDAY’S OTHER GAMEWEEK 36 ACTION

by SkontoRigga

We’ll have full Scout Notes on the day’s other three Premier League matches to come on Monday.

For now, though, our whistle-stop tour around the Gameweek 36 fixtures at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the Hawthorns and Goodison Park rounds up the major talking points.

WEST BROMWICH ALBION 1-2 LIVERPOOL
Image

A dramatic, emotional, last-gasp goal from Alisson (£5.9m) kept UEFA Champions League qualification in Liverpool’s grasp at the Hawthorns on Sunday.

The Brazilian nodded in Trent Alexander-Arnold‘s (£7.7m) stoppage-time corner to hand the Reds all three points.

Six points for a goal seems like scant reward for such a rare occurrence but attacking returns and bonus points for Alisson and Alexander-Arnold at least compensated for yet another clean sheet loss: Jurgen Klopp’s side have recorded just four shut-outs in their last 18 matches.

Despite this, Alexander-Arnold has only blanked in one of his last eight appearances.

Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) has delivered a goal or assist in each of his last six starts, meanwhile, and it was his beautifully taken strike from a Sadio Mane (£11.7m) lay-off that restored parity after Hal Robson-Kanu‘s (£5.2m) opener.

Matheus Pereira (£5.4m) continued his fine form, with an assist for Albion’s goal his eighth goal contribution in the last seven Gameweeks.

And for those that missed the news: an injured Diogo Jota (£7.0m) wasn’t involved in the Black Country and will now be sidelined for the rest of 2020/21.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 2-0 WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS
Injured Jota out for the season as Mane returns to Liverpool starting XI

Harry Kane (£11.8m) set a new personal best for Fantasy Premier League points in a single campaign, with his goal in Tottenham Hotspur’s comfortable 2-0 win set to take him to the 230-mark once bonus is added.

Kane’s total of 35 goals and assists combined is just one short of his record set in 2016/17.

A goal was the bare minimum he could have expected: his total of seven shots was the joint-highest of Gameweek 36, with two of those efforts striking the woodwork.

Gareth Bale (£9.2m) made it 10 attacking returns in his last five starts at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, meanwhile, claiming the assist for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg‘s (£4.9m) goal when his saved shot fell into the path of the Dane.

In a further indictment of Jose Mourinho’s tenure, Spurs had 24 shots and 13 attempts on target in this match – both figures surpassed any amount they had in a single Premier League fixture under their former boss.

EVERTON 0-1 SHEFFIELD UNITED
FPL's joint-cheapest player hauls as Hodgson discusses Guaita benching

Everton sank to a new low at Goodison Park on Sunday, losing to relegated Sheffield United.

The Toffees’ have kept only two clean sheets on home soil all season and they were unable to add to their meagre total against the relegated Blades, a team that had taken only four points from a possible 51 heading into the game.

Teenage striker Daniel Jebbison (£4.5m) did the damage against the Toffees, tapping home from a Jack Robinson (£4.2m) cross – a goal that directly benefitted precisely 0% of the top 10k but one that would have caused much amusement to FPL managers without an Everton defender in their side.

    Not sure how to use my strikers this week. Already made my FT.

    Nacho, Vardy, Watkins

    Currently on only Vardy.

    Full team is

    Martinez
    TAA Shaw Digne Rudiger
    Bruno Salah Son JWP Raph

    Thoughts?

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I’d play Watkins. in form. Tottenham are garbage defensively. Nacho over Vardy at this point if you want to play one of them.

  2. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Jota+Wood to Raphina+Firmino (-4)?

    Y or N? Thx.

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not sure on the wood > bobby move. I reckon both teams got goals in them that fixture.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Yes. Bobby Teeth FTW!

    3. leeboy104
      • 3 Years

      Can you keep Wood for gw38 and transfer someone else?

  3. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    GW37 captain?

    A Bruno
    B Salah
    C kane

    1. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Salah for me.
      No Bruno in the team makes it easier to decide.

    3. DRIZ ✅
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      The golden boot winner

    4. FPLMACKEM
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers. I am actually siding towards Salah.

  4. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Is Son >> Bruno Fernandes worth (-4) ??

    1. Foozeball
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I would wait to see what the injury situation is with Cash and Mings is like. If they are unavailable, especially Cash, I would consider keeping Son

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Cash out for season - per Dean Smith. Mings should be fit.

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      No United have got nothing to play for. Bruno might even get a rest.

      1. Toby Lerone
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Doubt it

  5. Lord Flashheart

    A guide and jota to philips and raphinia makes sense?
    -4

    1. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Maguire that is to go out

    2. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not sure. Maybe. Definitely Jota to Raph

  6. Fernandito
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Best option to replace Jota:
    A Harrison (ML rival has Raph)
    B Willock
    C JWP

    1. Foozeball
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I like Harrison. Potentially explosive and plays for a better team

  7. Foozeball
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Suggestions on protecting my lead in ML? It has slipped to just 15 points

    rival's team

    Mendy
    Cancelo - Dallas - Cresswell
    Salah - Son - Jota - Raphinha
    Kane- Bamford - Watkins

    Martinez, Castagne, Armstrong, Veltman
    1 FT, 1.0 ITB

    My team

    Henderson
    TAA - Castagne - Rudiger
    Bruno - Son - Jota* - Lingard
    Kane - Bamford - Iheanacho

    Johnstone, Soucek, Veltman, Maguire*
    1 FT, 1.1 ITB

    Jota needs to be sold and so does Maguire too probably. Looking like I might be stuck having to pray that Bruno outperforms or at least matches Salah on GW37

    1. Toby Lerone
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Jota to greenwood

      1. Foozeball
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Can't do that unless I take a hit to boot out Maguire because I already have 3x United players

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      What about chasing a City midfielder? Can you get to Mahrez in one move? Foden I assume yes.

      1. Foozeball
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I can replace Jota with Foden, but rotation is of course an issue, whether it be GW37 or GW38, and my bench isn't very strong. Already bricking it at the thought of Bruno and/or Henderson getting rested, which would most likely be a death sentence for me

  8. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Best goal keeper for last 2 game weeks?

    Not Allison

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Meslier, Ederson or maybe even Dubravka.

  9. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Team for GW37

    Mendy
    TAA, Shaw, Holding
    Salah, greenwood, Bruno (c), lingard, Jota
    Kane, Iheanacho

    Forster, Rudiger, Coady, David

    1ft £1m itb

    A Jota > Raphina
    B Jota > Saint maximum
    C Jota + Davis > Raphina + Antonio -4
    D Jota + Davis > Saint maximum + Antonio -4

    Any other suggestions?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B

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

      Switch out Bruno and maybe Shaw.

      Greenwood should be OK?

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        why switch out bruno or shaw ?

        1. Igz08
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          People seem to think they won’t play Fulham due to Europa League final

          1. FPLMACKEM
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Even though this is eight whole days after the Fulham game?

    3. onceuponatyne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I went Raphina...

      I'm a Toon fan, and awesome as ASM is, he doesn't have as much end product as he should and the club are massively inconsistent.

      1. FPLMACKEM
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        ASM is a bit of a flat track bully though. I seem to remember him ripping up Bournemouth last season. Three assists I seem to remember.

        1. onceuponatyne
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          How many since?

          He's a phenomenal talent, and should be under a better manager. He'll not get better under Bruce.

          1. FPLMACKEM
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            He has had vivid this season tbf. Yes he's not very consistent over the season due to covid/fitness/form issues. But I do feel at least one explosive performance from him in the next two. Which from an fpl perspective is what I'm after.

            1. FPLMACKEM
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 3 Years

    Jota & Son to Bruno & ASM -4??

    1. JJeyy
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      just jota to asm makes sense

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

      Madness.

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

      Jota to ASM or The other 1

  11. Nedvěd11

    Points predictio GW37:

    A) Siggy

      B if chasing, A for safety

    3. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I had a quick look at their per 90 stats earlier and Raphinha wins on every metric apart from crosses and goals (which is very close at 0.23 v 0.25)

      1. Flynny

  14. Dirty_Harry
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Exact money for the following:

    Zaha + Siggy > Greenwood + F.Torres (-4)

    1. Yay
    2. Nay

    Disappointed in both Siggy and Zaha unfortunately we're my differentials so time to go I believe.

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

      1.5

      1. Dirty_Harry
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Concerned maybe Torres is chasing points. Or could go Raphina instead of Torres

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I dunno about it. Zaha just scored and Arsenal ain’t amazing defensively. Arteta is garbage.

      Also Torres could easily not play again this year.

      1. Toby Lerone
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Well zahas shot was going wide and should have been an OG

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          And he blanked week earlier after winning penalty for Mili. Maybe this evens it. Tbh neither Raphinha or Zaha can be trusted to deliver. Leeds have been poor sometimes, CP without Zaha always.

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I am considering Zaha to Raphinha for -4, but I can also see it backfire. Zaha had his minor "injury/feeling" in last two matches when he blanked and he looked ok and scored. So even though my gut feeling says Raphinha, I may need to try my luck with my main differential (Zaha).

  15. AdamJ91

    Best Jota replacement?

    A) Raphinha
    B) Eze
    C) ASM
    D) Other (If so who? 6.8 max price)

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years

      C for me

    2. BeWater

      I’m thinking of A

    5. Toby Lerone

      Greenwood?

    6. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A

  16. tbos83
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Would you bring in Lingard or Willock for Jota?

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Willock of those two.

    2. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Willock.

    3. Igz08
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Lingard’s well out of form

    4. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not planning either now tbh. Raphinha and Greenwood are my targets atm.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        But W if you have to.

  17. AF90
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Martinez,
    AWB, Digne, Phillips
    Salah, Son, Mount, Zaha, Lingard
    Kane, DCL

    Forster, Mitchell, Coufal, Ihaenacho.

    1. Save FT?
    2. Have I got my bench correct? (Ignore order)

  18. Oooo Matron
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    What do we do with Bamford? Likely to be rotated massively with Rodrigo now. Do we sell, bench or stick with him?

      if you can bench then can do it this week and assess for the final game v west brom. Although West Brom isn't going to be easy

        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yep. Think I might bench him & do Jota to Raphina as a safer pick. I can then do Bamford to Wood v Sheff Utd on final day.

    2. Pompel

      2 years, 10 months ago

      If ot other priorities sell for e.g. Antonio or Wood, else bench if you have Raphina

  19. Pep Roulette

    Any Leeds fan? Do you think Bamford starts?

      Yes

    This is a dangerous place to be sometimes. People actually advising people to buy Saint Maximin 😯

      Have to live dangerously

        Trying to be clever has not worked a single time this season. And it won't this time either.

        1. Foozeball
          • 7 Years

          This. I got blinded by the fabled TGW and might have bottled my ML because of my poor decisions -__-

  21. Igz08
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    So I’m 25 points clear in ML.

    Opponent has Bruno + Son, I have Salah + Bale. Both have Jota and JLingz

    A) Jota, Zaha -> Bruno, Raphinha (-4)
    B) Jota, JLingz -> Bruno, Willock (-4)
    C) Jota, Nacho -> Bruno, Davis (-4)
    C) Bale -> Bruno

    1. Igz08
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Think is I don’t really want to sell Zaha before Arsenal. With B I’ll start Nacho or Ayling ahead if Willock.

      Theoretically could do B) + DCL-> Watkins for -8 (opponent has Ollie)

      1. Igz08
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Only with Raphinha for Willock

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          You probably have Greenwood, but Rashford might be decent punt over Bruno (massive fail possibile though) and save you some cash for the other move?

          1. Igz08
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            I don’t have Greenwood, but do I want him? I’m clueless as to whether he’ll start. Thinking to get Bruno just as a shield really

    50(-8) points in gw37 with Mahrez on the bench-Siggy first sub!,Bamford subbed off in 58 minutes,Jota injured with no sub,Forster and Mendy,Coleman +Dcl.This game...

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years

        We need to know who's getting the points

      2. wulfrunian
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        *gw36 ok

    2. Baps hunter

      I had awful autumn, but this year has been kinder. Yet, it doesn't help much. But after rough you may get the smooth and next season can't be worse. Trust me!

    3. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      But the high when you score a tonne next week will be so much better for this one

  23. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Start Saka

    Or

    Get replacement for Jota and bench Saka?

  24. No Kane No Gain
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Ultimate punt week.

    Bale or Mahrez captain?!

    1. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Bale of those

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Well actually Mahrez usually starts or doesn’t play right?

        So you could put it on him and chose a safe vc

  25. Zlatan F.C
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Who to get?

    A) Raphinha
    B) Dallas
    C) Harrison

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Leeds play SOU who normally play 2 upfront so Leeds will play with WBs and Dallas at RWB. Raphinha has more avenues for attacking point over Harrison for me

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        This

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B

  26. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Was looking forward to EVE vs. SHU - what a dud that turned out to be!

    Martinez
    TAA / Shaw / Digne
    Salah / Bale / Greenwood / Lingard
    Kane / DCL / Antonio

    Sanchez // Dallas / Holding / Jota*

    I line up for GW37. No more transfers to make, are my benching choices okay? Probably just Dallas instead of Digne?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Leeds play SOU who normally play 2 upfront so Leeds will play with WBs and Dallas at RWB. Everton home again and have poor form. Probably Dallas ahead of Digne

  27. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on Raphinha + Harrison double up?

    1. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Could be good. Would raise funds too.

      I’m not tempted but I get it.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Good viable option. Harrison probably 3rd best Leeds player ahead of Bamford at the moment

  28. james 101
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    A little help, gents?

    GW37:

    Meslier
    Coleman TAA Dallas
    Greenwood Bale Salah Son Lingard
    Kane DCL

    (Steer Wood Coufal Alioski)

    A. Play this
    B. Change bench (how?)
    C. Lingard to Raphinha
    D. Something else (what?!)

    1FT. Only £0.3itb. Thanks!

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I consider Wood starting over Lingard.

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I am definitely considering it. Rough fixture though.

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Play Coufal over Coleman and save FT

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers Z. Considering that too.

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I would drop Coleman but not sure who for. Don't trust Everton's home form. Both rolling a FT and getting Raphinha are decent moves. Since Lingard has a decent game against WBA, I would probably lean towards rolling FT

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        That’s my current thought.

        Though Raph looks good.

  29. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Bench one please?
    A. Lingard (wba)
    B. Bamford (sou)
    C. Nacho (che)

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      C

    2. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A maybe.

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Bamford

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Oh dear 3 different answers, will toss coin!

    Is Pope out against Liverpool?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Injured I think

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I think he is

    3. Skonto Rigga
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Dyche said he had a "chance" for Liverpool, I think, but more likely back for GW38
