    Is it worth taking a hit field 11 players for the QFs?

    If not I could just play with 2 defenders.

    The hit would likely be for a German/English defender.

      To field 11 maybe, not for squad. If Germany go through then I'd say it's definitely worth it for someone like Gosens with serious attacking threat.

      1. not_astarte

        4 years, 5 months ago

        He's 90% out

        1. St Pauli Walnuts
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Gosens? He has cold symptoms, so yes he might miss the England game but OP is talking about taking hits for the quarters, he'd likely be fine for Saturday.

          BS. Cos he had a cold? Why you scaremongering

    2. Golden Company
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      For me, I wouldn’t take the hit.

    3. linkafu

      Take a hit for a potential replacement of attack or midfield

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I will have 7 starting attackers already and 8th will be KDB who I don't want to sell as Belgium could go through the Semis and he will be available for that.

        So the hit has to be for a defender.

    Kinda hilarious that everyone is rejecting the Spurs managerial position 😆

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Scott Parker is available right?

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

        That would be fitting 😆

      To think Levy actually sacked Pochettino ....

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

        crazy.

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

          The club has no money, no strategy and soon no star player. Whichever mug takes the job will be forever blamed to reducing the club to mid-table mediocrity. No one want that on their CV - until they get to Allardici or Warnock anyway.

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

            spot on.
            what is the situation regarding Son, I struggle to understand why he would want to stay put, other than $.

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

              Very odd that no one is bidding for him either.

    3. Golden Company
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      It’s good to see given the way Levy treated Poch and Mou - not to mention his Euro Super League debacle.

    Quite happy with this team bar one slot. Gundog and Sarr in a 3-5-2, or bring Sarr in for him and get a third 7.5 striker..?

    Sanchez
    Trent Dias Shaw
    Salah(c) Bruno Gundogan Raphinha
    Nacho Wilson 6.0

    Steele Bissouma Ayling Omobamidele

      So you don't love Tony?

      1. farmerfat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Toney good, Brentford bad.

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

          they will have a greater attacking output than other promoted teams previous, penalties too.

          1. shirtless
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            I'm 0.5 short of Tone. Could go Sarr and Toney and save 1m for first move I guess? I did that last year and did Adams to DCL for GW2 which was smooth.

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

      First Perisic, now Gosens. Its a big blow for Germany if all 3 miss out game.

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

    Sanchez
    Fofana | Lamptey | Aarons
    Fernandes | Salah | Grealish | Raphinha
    Kane | Watkins | Toney

    Foster | Williams | Gilmour | 4.0

    Confident as to how this sits with all of Kane, Fernandes, Salah & Grealish. 4.5 defence selections will be dependent on potential transfers.
    Thoughts?

    1. not_astarte
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Great

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

        Thank you!

    2. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Are 3 premiums worth it when you will only be capping only one every GW?

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

        Good question. But Kane at City, potentially. I'm not sure I want to go without one of these three.

    3. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Also if you can get 4.5 defenders spot on, this team could be gold. Not easy though

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

        Yes, to my point of transfers.

        Ben White will almost certainly be a 4.5 option at Arsenal (sceptical over their defensive credentials this season).
        Aarons has been the interest of both Tottenham and Everton.
        Lamptey has had interest from the "big 6".
        I also like Holgate with Everton's early fixtures but playing time is the question mark here.
        Not to mention any new signings who get listed at 4.5.

        Apart from Villa, every side outside of the top 4 last season may have a 4.5 playing option.

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

          Imbalanced, in my book. Weak at the back and nothing on the bench.

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

            Williams is pending a loan move.

    4. No Professionals
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      the defence is horrible, having to play double brighton and a norwich defender every week will seem less viable closer to kick off.

      there is real value in defence this season.

      drop a premium and spread the cash.

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

        Aarons is only there with the potential of a transfer.
        Should he stay at Norwich I'd obviously look elsewhere.

    5. linkafu
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      You need at least one of TAA, Robbo, Dias,Chillwell or James imo

  5. farmerfat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    If United manage to land Sancho and he is priced between 8.5-9.5, would anyone consider swapping Bruno to Sancho and saving the extra 2.5-3.5 before the season starts? Could be a bit of a risk as Bruno is a proven asset but if Sancho hits the ground running and Bruno doesnt win lots of pens, could be a good bargain.

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      He may play wider to open space for Rashford, Cavani/Mason, Bruno to get in the box. I'd stick with the proven Bruno.

      United have badly needed someone capable of attacking the right wing since Valencia left.

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

      I don't think i really need that extra 3million. So I'll probably stick with Bruno.

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah it's not about the money with captains. You should never skimp on them.

        Salah and Bruno are bad value on their own, but it's the armband that makes them good value.

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

          I'm going without Bruno. He's looked subdued for months now. Salah has the fixtures to perma-band for a good few opening weeks. Sancho at 8.5 would be feasible. I've got Havertz and Grealish after Salah at the moment - if Jack goes to City and its rotation there might be a vacancy for Sancho.

          1. farmerfat
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Team feels much more balanced without him in it. Im not sure if his recent form warrants 12m. I guess its easy to start with him and get rid after the first 5 or 6 games if he doesnt perform.

  6. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Jota or TAA?

    Do we think Liverpool can be defensively solid again?

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Jota isn't nailed, so TAA easy.

      With VVD and Gomez back and Konate signing, you'd think they'd be tighter than last season. The only concern is Wijnaldum leaving, a player I rate very highly.

      But TAA still worth it for sure.

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

        I mean the real question should be whether TAA is worth it or not in isolation. Currently leaning towards no. They were not keeping clean sheets even with VVD and Gomez in the team. Konate and VVD CB pairing is still a big if.

        I think Jota will start most of the games and its worth the risk considering how good Pool fixtures are. Doubling up on Mane takes up a lot of your budget

        1. farmerfat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Season before last Liverpool kept 14 clean sheets and TAA got 210 points with VVD in the team. Best 7.5 player in the game .

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

      Lol what. A player who'll barely start vs the creative force of Liverpool? 😆 does that even need an answer

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

        ???

        Liverpool defenders are not worth it without clean sheets.

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

          Jota 86 points
          TAA 160 points

          If u wanna ask if TAA is worth it then that's a different question to which I don't have the answer to. But i can 100% say there's no competition between owning Jota or TAA.

    3. linkafu
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      TAA without a doubt

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

        I'm prepared to assume Liverpool will start the season defensively sound. I might even double up on TAA and Robbo. Blew up in my face last season but a year is along time!

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

          I think I'll spread the risk this year. Very annoying when 2 7m defenders bust.

  7. Gleys11
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    8 starters for QF. 4x Italy, 2x Sweden, 1x Denmark, 1x Spain.
    Plus 3 transfers.
    I know most played LL and WC already, but I still have both.
    Plan was LL in QF and WC in SF.
    But in there any advantage at all in going into QF with 11
    (And saving chips for SF and Final)

    Obviously if Sweden lose, forget the question.

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      play WC now, attack the QFs, you then have 5 transfers to fix your team for SF. Limitless final

    2. Golden Company
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I’ve both chips too, similar position player wise. I’m doing LL for QFs and WC semis.

      I can’t see the benefit of holding them any longer.

  8. linkafu
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    With Mbappe captain (5*2 pts), Do Ichange captain to:

    A Fosberg
    B Havertz
    C keep Mbappe (c)

    1. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      In the same position, leaning towards Forsberg captain. Not too confident, but think it's worth a roll of the dice.

  9. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Which is the better structure to start with in FPL?

    A. 7.5 4.5 4.5 4.5 4.5
    12.5 12 7.5 6.5 4.5

    B. 5.5 5.5 4.5 4.5 4.5
    12.5 10 9.5 7.5 4.5

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

      Defense of B, attack of A

      1. King Kohli
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Even if you don't plan to use the other big hitter for captaincy often?

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

          Yep

          when it gets clear that who is in form for that 10 and 9.5 spot, you can use couple of transfers to make the switch.

    2. linkafu
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Depends of the players in the structure

  10. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Best Captain?

    A) Forsberg
    B) Yarmolenko?

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A.

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Both have pretty much identical odds to score. Toss a coin.

    3. Golden Company
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A - mainly because I see Sweden winning. But both could do wel in the game, so a coin toss really.

  11. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Sanchez 4
    TAA Dinge White/Ayling 4
    Salah Bruno Kai Rafa 4.5
    DCL Watkins Welbex

    1. farmerfat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Still not convinced on Havertz. In the last 6 game weeks of last season ( which were arguably his best ) he only managed 9 goal attempts. 30 midfielders did better.

  12. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    So best captaincy option for Day 1 of QFs is Morata?

    1. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Tough times eh....

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Haha seriously!

        Although we will know the Spain line up so could punt on a midfielder too.

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

          Ferran could be handy

          1. Karan_G14
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Yes I guess it's going to be Morata & Havertz/Sterling coming in or Mueller & Ferran.

            And that will be captaincy covered for both days.

    2. fenixri
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Spain midfielder. If you like pain then yes, Morata.

  13. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    My team is in one hell of a dire state now after last night.. what the hell do i do here? No WC or LL.. do I just take good few hits?

    Immobile - Depay
    Wijnaldum - KDB - Beradi - Damsgard
    Spinazzola - Kimpembe - Maehle - Dumfries
    Donna

    Bench: Stek - Forsberg - Alba - Benzema

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Just try to get 11 starters.

      Target Spain & Eng/Ger

    2. fenixri
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Depay, Wijnaldum and Dumfries/Benzema out for who you think are favorites. Keep KDB, he may not play against Italy but could be back for semis if they get through.

  14. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Which 4 Italian players to get for the quarter final?

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

      2 from defense (Spinnazola and Donn) and 2 from attack (Insigne and Cheisa/Immobile)

    2. fenixri
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I am going with 3, Donna, Spina and Immobile.

  15. Jordan.
