    Final WC team, GTG?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Coady (White Livra)
    Salah Greenwood Jota Benrhama Torres
    Antonio Lukaku (Scarlett)

    0.4 ITB for Ben > Raph next week potentially

    Ronaldo captainers - any concerns on him having the armband today? FFS team news and MEN seem adamant he’ll start today.

    1. The Philosopher
      5 years, 1 month ago

      How reliable is MEN?

      1. John Colby (C)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Fair point but they quote Ole at Wolves when he said ‘Ronaldo wasn’t signed to sit on the bench’. No Cavani today either so why not start him in a favourable fixture in a league he hasn’t played in for years. I can’t see what United gain by starting him on the bench.

    2. Bubbles1985
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Personally I think they will bench him today and full debut at home...

      But that's opinion! I am sticking with Salah captain but starting Ronaldo up top with Antonio (vc)

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        5 years, 1 month ago

        They are at home today

        1. Bubbles1985
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Christ it was a heavy night!

          Ronaldo captain, Salah vice

          As you were!

      2. Werner Bremen
        5 years, 1 month ago

        They play at home?

      3. Butcher
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Lol

      4. John Colby (C)

        When I read Ole’s comments initially I thought he would start from the bench. But with two poor away performances in their last two PL fixtures I think Ole will want to hit the ground running with Ronaldo. He’s had a preseason with Juve too.

    3. Drexl Spivey
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I suspect Ronaldo owners/captainers will do well this week, but for that price I want a sure thing. Dodgy fixtures coming up and his ownership hasn't climbed enough to risk dumping Bruno, so for me it was worth holding fire to see what the penalty situation is, even if it ultimately means losing a few points.

      1. Kane Train
        5 years, 1 month ago

        100% agree with u. WC could be better used in gw7 IMO.

    4. Gunneryank
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I have no problem at all capping him, even if he doesn't play 90. He's a goal-getting FPL asset any way you slice it. Easiest decision of my WC.

  3. timawflowers
    5 years, 1 month ago

    play liv or duffy?

    1. DARE TO BISCAN
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Duffy

  4. Jimjam
    5 years, 1 month ago

    On WC, 9.9 to spend on last 2 defenders:

    (A) Semedo & Livramento

    (B) Coady & White

    1. Carcetti
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. The Tinkerman
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A. They both have attacking threat.

  5. Puntillimon
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Feels a lot like decision paralysis.

    Ings to dcl for free? His underlying stats are so good + fixtures. Surely it works out. However, also feels like he’s gonna get injured for 3 weeks next week.

    Hit the transfer, yes or no?

    1. Cyril Figgis
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Hit it.

  6. OptimusBlack
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who to Start ?
    A- Sissoko or Allan on WC
    B- Raph

    1. Limbo
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B

      1. OptimusBlack

        Cheers

  7. OBAMA
    5 years, 1 month ago

    son out for a hit? Amartey would play if I don't take him out.

    If so, best replacement other than Jota ???

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, greenwood, sarr, Raph or adama

  8. marcos11
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Jota/Jimenez or DCL/Raph?

    1. Tshelby
      5 years, 1 month ago

      DCL/Raph

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      5 years, 1 month ago

      First one for today

  9. boroie
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Any issues here?

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Digne
    Salah(C) Greenwood Benrahma Raphinha
    Ronaldo(VC) Antonio Toney

    Think I’m done with WC or am I? Thanks

    Sanchez/ Gill
    Dier, Shaw, Marcel, Duffy, Livra
    Salah, Jota, Raphina, Gray, Bissouma

      Like it

    2. boroie
      5 years, 1 month ago

      This is what I’m looking to move towards for GW7 when Chelsea’s game ease

  11. damiang2233
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Jota for Mahrez on FT?

    1. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah

  12. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Stick with the original plan and choose A? What’s your opinion?

    For the next 2-3 gameweeks;

    A. Ings+Bruno—> Ronaldo+Torres, -4
    B. Ings+Bruno —> Ronaldo+Mount, -4
    C. Save, and have 2 FTs for the next gw (and maybe get Jota then)

  13. Piggs Boson
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Nuno admits he's withholding information about the injuries:

    Asked if he could divulge any further information, Nuno smiled and replied: “No, not much more, maybe I’ll be giving info... I’m sure you understand!”

    Sauce: https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/2021/september/palace-v-spurs-team-news/

    Would anyone be surprised if Son starts? 😆

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Nuno usually silent on injuries at Wolves too

  14. StevenW
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Ings won’t score today. Who should I take a -4 to bring in? (No Ron / Rom or Kane unless take Pogba out for another -4).

    Vardy?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You mean apart from the pen on 72 mins when Rudiger handballs on the line?

      1. StevenW
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I’m a Villa fan, think we get beat badly today

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Lose Vardy def

  15. Greko82
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Dilemma,

    Who to captain?
    A) Mo
    B) CR7

    Currently on Mo, as slightly worried that Ronaldo won’t start..

    1. waldo666
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. boroie
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I’m going Mo but just because it’s the safer option. Guaranteed start and on pens. Slight doubts over both of those for Ronaldo. Plus I feel I have plenty of United coverage with Greenwood and Ronaldo. So hedging my bets a bit.

    3. Warby84
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Mo

  16. wolves_simmo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Best mid option with £8.6m to spend?

    A) Torres (lei, SOU, che, liv, BUR, bha)
    B) Jota (lee, CRY, bre, MCI, wat, mun)
    C) Traore (wat, BRE, sou, NEW, avl, lee)
    D) Havertz (AVL, tot, MCI, SOU, bre, NOR)

    1. waldo666
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B. As a Wolves fan, what do you think of Marcal? Will he keep his place? Better option than Coady (no funds for Semedo)?

      1. wolves_simmo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Marcal will play but for me hes very injury prone and a red card waiting to happen. hes been solid when ever hes been fit but zero attacking threat.

        1. DARE TO BISCAN
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Oh. Was thinking of Marcal for WC. No attacking threat? FFS have him in GW4 team, saying 5th highest crosser. Do they lack quality?

          1. wolves_simmo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah the crosses rarely beat the first man.

  17. Abra
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone know of a good site for checking anytime goalscorer odds in PL?

  18. boroie
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Last decision (I think). Start…

    A - Raphinha (LIV)
    B - White (NOR)

    First to 5 votes seals it…

    1. Werner Bremen
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. waldo666
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

  19. Kane Train
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Which one?

    A) keep my team
    Sanchez
    TAA / Dier / Digne / Shaw
    Salah / Bruno / Greenwood / Benrahma
    Antonio / DCL

    B) wildcard into this team
    Sanchez
    TAA / Dier / Tierney
    Salah / Raphinha / Jota / D.Gray
    Ronaldo / Pukki / Lukaku

  20. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Repost bottomed-

    Morning all, what’s the best option to slice 1.0 off to get my better all round team here…….,

    A- Ronaldo to Lukaku
    Or
    B- Jota to Raphinha(will be Benrahma for this week tho and switch next week)

    Cheers all!!!

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I went Kaku over CRon (either a masochist or believer in the cult of Mark Sutherns I guess)

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I’m massively tempted mate!! Did you leave 1.0 in the bank to get Ronaldo in one move if need be??

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          5 years, 1 month ago

          No, decided in the end it was worth getting Jota for the next couple rather than leave £1 million ITB. Happy to (c) Mo the next couple.

          1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah I’m the same with captaining Salah for next two aswell, and going for Lukaku leaves me enough for White to Rudiger aswell so saves a transfer down the line!! Should i
            Go with that??

  21. Irish Villan 1985
    5 years, 1 month ago

    On a WC, Traore or Sarr?

    1. Butcher
      5 years, 1 month ago

    2. waldo666
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sarr

  22. More Cowbell
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Start one:
    a) Ayling (playing Salah)
    b) Livramento (playing Antonio & Benrahma)
    c) Brownhill

    Thanks

  23. Butcher
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Tested positive for Covid so feeling a bit down. Considering I'll be sat watching football all day, would you

    A) Take a one week punt on Mount (want someone in the 5.30 KO)
    B) Get Torres this GW and save transfer next.

    1. SpaceCadet
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. The Tinkerman
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I think Mount is the better pick, and it’s more fun to watch games as a neutral when you have a player. So go A. Get better soon 🙂

      1. Butcher
        5 years, 1 month ago
