Scoreboard

FPL Gameweek 7 round-up: Sunday’s goals, assists, bonus and injuries

Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.0m) scored on his return to Leicester City’s starting XI, as Son Heung-min (£10.0m) registered his third double-digit haul of the season in a much-needed victory for Tottenham Hotspur.

Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m) inspired Brentford continued their impressive start, while Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) strengthened his perma-captain status with a goal, assist and maximum bonus.

However, it was a day to forget for those who handed Michail Antonio (£8.0m) the armband, as the Jamaican forward returned just two Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Points.

Our usual, more detailed Scout Notes will follow for all of today’s games but in the meantime, our long-dormant Scoreboard series rounds up the key goings-on.

The graphics below are taken from LiveFPL, Ragabolly’s excellent and ever-expanding website, and our own Premium Members Area.

GOALS, ASSISTS, PROJECTED BONUS

FPL TAKEAWAYS

  • On his first Premier League start of the season, 2020/21 Fantasy favourite Kelechi Iheanacho bagged a goal, maximum bonus and nine FPL points. The Nigerian international registered 12 Premier League goals and two assists in just 1452 minutes last term. As a result, he ranked top amongst all forwards per 90 minutes for goals and joint-fourth for expected goal involvement (xGI). Should he now nail down a spot in Brendan Rodgers’ starting XI, he would instantly become an excellent option for our frontlines, ahead of games against Manchester United (h), Brentford (a) and Arsenal (h) after the international break.
  • As for Jamie Vardy (£10.4m), the veteran forward now tops the Premier League scoring charts having netted his sixth goal of the campaign at Selhurst Park. He has blanked in just two of his seven appearances in 2021/22, but despite that, has suffered a £0.1m price drop since the start of the season. Interestingly, Vardy touched the ball just 10 times against Crystal Palace this afternoon, compared to the more involved Iheanacho (32), who regularly dropped deeper to link play in Brendan Rodgers’ 4-2-3-1 formation.
  • Following today’s 2-2 draw, Patrick Vieira’s Eagles remain unbeaten at home, despite a testing run which has included games against Brentford, Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton and Hove Albion, and of course, Leicester City. The 8.3% owned Conor Gallagher (£5.7m) failed to return but attempted four shots, while Michail Olise (£5.4m) arrived off the bench and scored his first Premier League goal within nine minutes of coming on. He also took on a share of set-pieces. 
  • Son Heung-min’s third double-digit haul of the season – via two assists and two bonus points – ensured a big win for Nuno Espirito Santo and Tottenham Hotspur against Aston Villa. The South Korean international was the most advanced Spurs’ player on the day, and was a little unfortunate not to score, as he racked up five goal attempts, three shots in the box and 10 penalty box touches.
  • As for their opponents, Aston Villa, Dean Smith lined his troops up in a 3-5-2 / 5-3-2 formation for the fourth-successive Premier League match. Despite a disappointing loss, there were positives, as differential Ollie Watkins (£7.3m) opened his 2021/22 account. The dynamic between the England international and Danny Ings (£7.9m) is one to keep an eye on ahead of Gameweek 11, when Villa take on Southampton (a), Brighton (h) and Crystal Palace (a). Today, Watkins was the more advanced, and led his team-mate for goal attempts and shots in the box.
  • A dramatic late winner by Yoane Wissa (£5.9m) – his second goal in just 20 minutes of pitch time during the last two Gameweeks – at the London Stadium means that Brentford are now up to 7th in the Premier League table. Bryan Mbeumo was also on the scoresheet, but could have had more, having missed a couple of good early chances for the Bees’. Given that he has hit the woodwork a massive four times already this season, owners may still feel a little short-changed. Next up for Brentford is a testing encounter with Chelsea (h), before an appealing run of fixtures between Gameweeks 9 and 16, when their assets will surely be subject to huge interest.
  • Michail Antonio served up just his second blank of the season on Sunday, as Jarrod Bowen (£6.3m) scored West Ham’s only goal of the game against Brentford. For Bowen, it was his third attacking return since Gameweek 5, and as a result, he has now outscored his more popular team-mate – Said Benrahma (£6.6m) – by 17 FPL points to 15 during that time.
  • An entertaining clash between Liverpool and Man City at Anfield ended in a 2-2 draw, with Mohamed Salah delivering yet another double-digit haul via a goal,  assist and maximum bonus. The Egyptian is the top-scoring player in FPL with a whopping 70 points, at least 21 more than any other player. Team-mate Sadio Mane (£11.9m) was also on the scoresheet, with his fourth goal in his last six Premier League appearances.
  • For Pep Guardiola’s side, Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) and Phil Foden (£7.9m) both scored and are intriguing differentials ahead of Burnley (h), Brighton (a) and Crystal Palace (h). The Belgian attempted four shots in the box in Gameweek 7, with Foden registering two, while they both shared corner-taking duties with Jack Grealish (£8.0m).

INJURY WATCH

Despite receiving lengthy treatment during the second-half at Selhurst Park, Jamie Vardy recovered and saw out the game.

However, Brentford weren’t quite so fortunate. 

The Bees’ lost Kristoffer Ajer (£4.5m) to a hamstring injury during the week, while Vitaly Janelt (£5.0m) took a knock (thigh) during the warm up and missed out despite being named in the starting XI.

Things then got worse as Shandon Baptiste (£5.0m) was forced off with a suspected dislocated shoulder in the first-half.

STAT WATCH – GAMEWEEK 7

The 5.1% owned Harry Kane (£12.1m) ended Gameweek 7 with six shots, a total no other player could improve upon. Despite that, the England captain blanked again, those his performance was more encouraging ahead of his team’s trip to Newcastle United after the international break.

Kevin De Bruyne also features highly, as does Said Benrahma, though only one of the latter’s five attempts arrived inside the penalty box.

Romelu Lukaku (£11.7m) was this week’s biggest non-pen xG underachiever, with a -0.77 total

Son Heung-min also appears on the list, along with team-mates Kane and Giovani Lo Celso (£5.9m).

    Funny this, even I laughed at people who asked "what if Ronaldo does not start"

    Cavani says hi

      need to get rid soonish

    Foden looked brilliant last night, could have had more goals easily. Do you think he's worth considering for their decent run of fixtures?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Bring him in for the hauls to come (snigger snigger).

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I think I'm rolling the dice on Foden yes.

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Fodenfreude woohoo!

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

      Yes sure although Pep could frustrate. Good cover may help a bit but cameo is devastating and irritating.

    3. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I think that he's a transfer out waiting to happen. The key to City is pick the player who you think hauls next, not who hauled most recent

      1. tokara
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Torres come to mind

    4. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      no for me.. from what i see it is good tactics by pep.. instead of grealish (assist) on the left, he push the more quick attacking foden (goals) to take advantage of milner old legs.
      with favourable fixture, speed is not advantage when teams play deep low block at the back.
      of cos u can get foden a good price, rmb u need gd bench too.
      look what happened to torres

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

    Vardy instead of Lukaku, madness?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Long term no but for the next 3-5 or so weeks I think yes

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

      Jesus madness?!

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

        No, am considering. Even Ings/Watkins, super madness 😛

      2. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        If only we knew he would start for that Burnley fixture...

    3. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No. Not madness.

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

      not at all...kaku has had so many blanks and is not worth his price other than hype...
      and brentford woud be tough opponents..

    5. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Just did Ronaldo to Vardy, he’s so focal

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        And Greenwood to Foden

    6. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Vardy is Consistent. but Lukaku for the next 4weeks is almost essential due to no. of owners.
      I have both though
      No to Jesus. for his price i wish he more focus on scoring but more likely to assist

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

    TAA worth a -4 to play over Cresswell or Livra?!

    If confirmed for of course!

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

      Confirmed fit*

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

      No don't think so

    3. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Vs Watford -4 and capping him could work.

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

        Got my heart set on kane as a captain differential this week. Would you -4 if you weren’t going to captain?!

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I am keeping TAA for the season. There are no mids at his price point worth having over him.

          Cresswell has Everton so would not expect a clean sheet. Livra has Leeds so starting him depends if Bamford and Raphina are available.

          TAA could very well have Watford for lunch so guess a -4 for him is not the end of the world.

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

        😉

  5. Gabbiadini
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Brining in Cancelo a week early to catch his price rise, which didn't happen and have a better alternative for TAA worked well.
    Had a 4 point Livramento as first sub :/

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Bringing*

  6. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ronaldo/Greenwood worth Vardy/Foden for -4?

    Or do Ronaldo/Greenwood to Lukaku/Foden for -4

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Or C) Ronaldo/Greenwood to Vardy and Son

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        C looks good.

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Could also do Ronaldo/Jimmy to Vardy/Jesus and have 1.2 in the bank to upgrade mid/def

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Jimmy seems to be finding his feet again and will start every match. There is also the issue with Jesus that he may not be back in time from the IB.

      2. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Vardy and Son is my preferred but also would do only Greeny out for someone. No hit probably better.

      3. Calum Undisputed
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Vardy n Son is great ... keep jimenez.

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Sweet Jesus. replace foden with Torres and it could be gw4 all over again

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Maybe just Greenwood out and avoid the hit.

  7. R.C
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who to bench:

    1. Livramento v LEE (H)
    2. White v CRY (H)
    3. Mbeumo v CHE (H)

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Flip a coin between 1 & 2.

      You have to start the attacker.

    Is Hwang better than Jimmy?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      no one really can answer that

      1. tokara
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        stats wise?

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          only started two games, hard to tell really. I think Hwang may be a bit like Vardy, stats are not going to tell the full story

          1. tokara
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Cheers buddy

            1. Hotdogs for Tea

              2 years, 5 months ago

              i have Hwang on WC, for what it’s worth

    2. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not proven. but 2 games performance is Hwang

  9. tokara
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Any news if Raphina will play gw8?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years

      Wait for Bielsa presser.

    2. Cruyff's Eleven

      He's travelling to the arse end of the world first....

  10. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Wildcard draft

    Raya Sanchez
    Cancelo Rudiger Chilwell Cucurella Livramento
    Salah Son Townsend Normann Brownhill
    Lukaku Aubameyang Toney

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Are you planning on playing Normann every week?

    2. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      4th def or mid weak...
      i prefer double city def to chelsea..

    3. Salah’s Sonnet

      chillwell?

  11. MagicMessi
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Hwang or Jimi ?

  12. MagicMessi
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ronaldo OUT to
    Kane or Hwang or Auba ?!!

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Leicester's defence is certainly not strong.

      1. MagicMessi
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        But United have idiot manager

        1. Gabbiadini
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Well, I think Ronaldo will score against Leicester.

          1. MagicMessi
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            What about fixtures its tough as hell i know he might score ofc but he to be sold at 12.6 if he drops 0.1 he sell at 12.5 so its crucial also with pogba about to fall :((( cant decide its a long IB too :((

            1. waldo666
              • 13 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              Is the 0.1 that crucial? Just relax for a bit, as you say, it's a long break.

              1. MagicMessi
                • 11 Years
                2 years, 5 months ago

                Yea it is it actualy be .2 in pogba and .1 in Ronaldo or maybe more ... !! I cant take price drops specially if iam going to ship anyway

              2. Gabbiadini
                • 6 Years
                2 years, 5 months ago

                yeh, wouldn't get too peeved by 0.1.

            2. Salah’s Sonnet
              • 12 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              crucial hehe

          2. Ruth_NZ
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            What if he does? 6-7 points is par for 12.7m (slightly below par actually). If he gets 7 points when you don't have him you can consider that entirely discounted by the fact that others had to pay 12.7m for those 7 points.

            The only reason to have 12m+ players is for hauls, especially when captained. End of story.

            1. Gabbiadini
              • 6 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              Not entirely.
              If all your premiums are performing to a level then the fact you're not captaining 1 or 2, does not come into it for me.

              1. Ruth_NZ
                • 9 Years
                2 years, 5 months ago

                To what level? This is what I'm telling you; 7 points per GW is a bare par for 12.7m. Can be done but it isn't common. Salah has done it once over a season, Ronaldo once a long time ago. Kane never did it, nor KDB, nor Bruno.

      2. MagicMessi
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Ok what you think of the falling Pogba in 30 minutes ? Need ro get rid fast .. thinking of shipping both to Kane and Son shitty combo

        1. tokara
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Pogba to a Everton

          1. MagicMessi
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Have Douco fancy a townsend Double up ?

            1. tokara
              • 9 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              i would consider, if Raphina is not playing gw8

        2. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Perhaps also consider Vardy. He vs the team with the id10t manager in GW8.

          1. MagicMessi
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Iam considering Antonio to Varfy as well :O

            1. MagicMessi
              • 11 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              Vardy*

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I wouldn’t. Ronaldo should do well against Leicester.

  13. Saxe-Gotha
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Would you do Bruno > KdB? I'd love to have Foden but I fear more rotation with him.

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Don't reckon I would.

    2. MagicMessi
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

    3. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      The move would make sense only if KDB is guaranteed to start every match. That is 1st requirement from a premium. The KDB of now is not the KDB 2019/20.

    4. Calum Undisputed
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      yes y not. assuming i have salah n lukaku, 3 premium u can switch to KDB for next 4 games.
      They will need his passing to open defense. and he will take shots too

    5. Ruth_NZ
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Son and use 2m elsewhere.

  14. acidicleo
    • 7 Years

        hope ron holds firm due to wc effect..

  15. vincentwsho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Shaw to Cancelo worth a -4 (to avoid price rise)?

    Or wait till next week to do Dias with FT?

    Already did Greenwood to Mount this week

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'd wait.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Wait

  16. steven8991
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    on WC. Jesus or Lukaku for GW 8 only?

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Jesus. But Lukaku for GW9.

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Pick whichever will rise the most right now and then decide in 2 weeks.

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      As you are on WC just pick who is going to rise in price next and make your final choice before the deadline … make sure you don’t sell players with profit in them though if you want them back

  17. Amartey Partey
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ronaldo v Vardy should be fun. Good game for both to haul. I can see that fixture being 3-3.

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      yes well, neither can defend.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That’s because they are strikers. 😉

      2. Gabbiadini
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        although to be fair, United have only conceded 6 goals.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah but it’s the drip feed.

  18. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Some major price swings tonight.
    Are you ready wild carders?

    1. Don Van Vliet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      When exactly do price changes happen, Rupert?

      Are they daily at the same time? If so, when?

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Basically immediately.

      2. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        And yes every day at 02:30 GMT

        1. Don Van Vliet
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Thanks, old boy.

            Mmm lovely

  19. RogDog_jimmy
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Team feels good

    Ramsdale (Foster)
    Dias, Cancelo, Rudiger (Duffy, Livramento)
    Slaah, Son, Benrahma, Raphinha (Brownhill)
    Lukaku, Antonio, Jimenez

    0.0 itb. 1ft.

    Feeling like Benrahma might be due to head out this week or next.
    I want Mbuemo long term but doesn’t make a lot of sense for the Chelsea fixture - but maybe it does?
    Want to start Duffy @ Norwich too but can’t decide who to bench instead.

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Start Duffy v Norwich and trade in / rest Mbeumo

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Right? Or just sit Bennie and roll the transfer in case something goes wrong.

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Surely you have to start Duffy against Norwich!

    Price change time in 5 minutes. Could be huge, could be wild cards. I always take the hits and then wild card last day

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years

        2 years, 5 months ago

        lets just agree on different haha...dont have to think about my team for two weeks now and have playing bench to cover any late drama

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          haha of course, but to me they are all serious downgrades, but i do wish you luck buddy, i have plenty decision to make, 3m in the bank though which may be handy

          1. jia you
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Cheers, committing to going without Salah has been tough but hopefully he'll hit a rough patch at some point lol

          Play your own game. I have taken a -12 🙂

    4. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years

      Why trading TAA?

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Very punty I know but just fancy KdB(C) for the next three...hit and hope as rank took a battering this GW but it's the way I play the game anyway

        1. Gabbiadini
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          well, I traded him before this fixture against City.
          However, having held and then to trade before Watford, you have more kahunas than me.

        • 6 Years

        Makes me angry, having already had him. he must have been close to rising before today.

    6. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Salah at 60.1% ownership now and will keep on rising.

      Delete your team if you do not own him.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Why have the price change posts been removed from the hot topics tab? For those of us living in strange time zones and waking up after this page has moved on, it's the only way we can quickly go to the said post.

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          it’s just not flagged immediately - you can click on it and notify the FFS team to remind them

          1. Andy_Social
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            No, the previous days' posts have been removed from Hot Topics. That's new.

              ah yes, a bit annoying but it has been like this for a while.

              Just save a link to Ragabolly 😉

        2. Ragabolly
          • 14 Years

          Because of the earlier issue with the hacker and hub etc, affected previous HTs

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers. Back on topic, I decided to forgo beating the Cancelo rise as I wasn't sure if he or Azpili is the better acquisition, and I assume there won't be much activity until near the next deadline, giving me time to assess.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years

          Best to wait over 2 weeks for sure.

    What to do with Alonso?

    Time to sell?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      he has missed ONE game?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        One becomes 2 etc

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          is it really going to be that bad? ffs i'll have to get rid after only just bringing him in lol

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Chilwell wasn't really an option for the 1st 6 GWs. Goal helps etc.

            1. Salah’s Sonnet
              • 12 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              guess i'll have to move him on then soon'ish

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      i think so, he and Chillwell are big risks to each other … more so than other defenders like Azpil or Rudiger

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

      yes

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        For whatever reasons, Chilwell wasn't ready. Now he is.

    5. zøphar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      With 3 games a week there's going to be constant rotation in the LWB spot in particular, but its rare either chilwell or alonso will get subbed on. So if you're ok with an occasional cameo and have a good bench you can hold imo

    6. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah I did. He’ll probably be second choice LWB now and only play around 30% of the games.

    7. Salan
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No. The Chelsea gw7 match is an exception. You can't see Havertz or Mount starting as well. Did this mean they will not start frequently?

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Depends on"frequently". If that's 70% of games, it would incline me to avoid Alonso in favour of Rudiger and Azpili

        1. Salan
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Alonso 70% Azp 80% Rudiger 90%

          Even in this %, Alonso's scoring may not be fewer than the other two this season. Not yet talking about the bench players coming out help.

    8. Ajaxeeding
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’m not going to change course after one benching. For now it is a hold for me. If after the next few GWs he isn’t performing, then I will move him on. At least he didn’t come on for a cameo this week as CR7 did for me

  26. jackruet
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Those who are playing FPL for long time, how do you rate this season compared to others?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      crap, same as last two seasons

      1. FCSB

        Why?

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          all fun and integrity getting sucked more out the game, last two gw's have been useless

    2. Ragabolly
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Been playing for 14 years, don't think this season is unusual. Last season was

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not that I am doing fantastically well (OR 108k) but have started far better than the previous three seasons where I was up in the millions at this stage.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        same, but slowwwly slipping due to last 2 GW's, eeeek

      2 years, 5 months ago

      not a long time but it’s certainly a bit more challenging this year with more choice of player at different price points so a bit tricky to get the right combinations

        Whatever the situation, it's the same for all of us.

      don't enjoy it as much in recent seasons as too much spoon fed info and herd mentality going on...makes my style look particularly crazy (which is probably is at times the lol)

        Exactly. There was no youtube, twitter for fpl when i started. Even we Didn't know which player going to rise or drop

      It’s definitely gotten more difficult over the years with websites like this one and YouTube FPL “experts” giving advice to managers. I’ve been playing FPL since the days of when you had to pick your team in the Daily Telegraph and also managed to finish in the top 500 in the first or second year of PL version that we have now. No chance of coming close to that now but it’s definitely gotten better, albeit more stressful.

        I've been playing since had to ring in players 3 digit number from ireland.think it was the sun newspaper.anyway always been addicted to fantasy and made my own choices but this site was the best for information

          Yes I think that was how transfers were made in the Telegraph too. Or we mailed it in? So long ago now I can’t even remember. I used to do it with my dad. It was back when Newcastle were actually good and Warren Barton was a bargain. I’ve been addicted ever since and I love this game as much as it drives me crazy. It’s been a while since I didn’t give up halfway through but determined to finish this time.

      Disappointing but that’s mostly down to my choices to start the season which have backfired and poor team value.
      Hoping to bring the fun back soon but as always need some luck.
      Have enjoyed the return of the budget midfielders and the great divide of the 2 camps with/out “threemiums”.

      I’m yet to find the balance for coming on this site for needed info vs scrolling through the various posts and the verbal diarrhoea that comes with that.

      How about yourself?

      Easy early on as template was strong, changing around now. Ronaldo and Lukaku trolling after their double figures.

        That's true, and the game is the better for it at the moment. But the number of other problems in the form of injuries and rotation is constantly ruining my planning. Just makes it harder at the moment. Not something to complain about.

          At least you were in the top 1K for 3 GWs, more WCS being used this break helps.

      After last season without the fans and enduring my fpl team getting covid bombed a few times this season seems like a breath of fresh air.I honestly thought calling it a day at the end of last season.

      This is my 15th season playing fpl and although i still like the game something about has lost it's shine for me in the last few seasons but you could probably put that down to me not doing so well.

      The game has lost some of it's je ne sais quoi with all these mountains of data twitter experts,bot managers and such.

      Maybe I'm just old fashioned?

        Nostalgic isn’t necessarily equal to old fashioned. Bit like following a band before they hit the big time perhaps.

      Playing since 2009/10. I always seem to have a good GW1, no different this year, but I've tended to fall away by this stage in recent seasons, whereas being patient with initial picks (Toney, Smith Rowe, White, even Bruno, plus Jimenez who I brought in later) has paid off this time, sitting at 142k without using first wildcard.

      Feel a slight parallel between Kane/Son vs. Soton last season and the introduction of Lukaku/Ronaldo this year. Last year I had neither for those early hauls, then got Son and he did nothing for weeks. Won't be getting Ronaldo at any point and will consider Lukaku ahead of Norwich game.

      Quite like the variation in defence this season. For all the talk of essential TAA I've not felt too bad going without. Cheaper options far more interesting than last season when everyone had Justin 4.5m, Mitchell 4m, Dallas 4.5m (could never believe the latter didn't start at 30% ownership, the most obvious FPL pick I can remember). More risk/reward with Tsimikas, Amartey didn't last long, nobody really expected Duffy/Livramento.

      Was it 2017-18 when a big 5 at the back was popular at the start (think so because I remember Kolasinac being in the conversation)? Interesting seeing people talking about double City/Chelsea defence now.

      Pretty standard I would say, past few seasons (including before covid) have been weird

  27. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Best option on WC:

    1. Azpi (have Rudiger) + (5th mid) Everton Mid / or ESR
    2. TAA + (5th mid) Brownhill / or fodder

    Thanks

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years

      2

    2. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'd go 2.

    3. jackruet

      1..get 2 when pools fixture is good

      On for 380 but has ACN.

    2. Andy_Social

      There's a real case for perma-capping Salah, which makes the threemium case even weaker.

  29. steven8991

    If WC, would you lose Antonio?

    Westham fixtures are getting harder plus there are many good forwards option with same price or even cheaper.

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I am keeping Antonio until he breaks again.

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Antonio looks a season keeper at that price and while playing and scoring.

      Will need an injury or a serious drop off in form before he's replaced

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Same here. Eduard and Hwang are in reserve, but Antonio would need to proper break first.

    3. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Wait for him to break first. In tremendous form.

    4. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Antonio only gets sold when he gets injured

  30. luk46
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    whats your preferred front 3 right now?

    Lukaku - Antonio - Hwang is what I just got on my wc

    1. steven8991
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Jimenez - Antonio - Jesus/Vardy

      then GW 9 Jesus/Vardy to Lukaku

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Almost. I have Jimmy.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Lukaku, Antonio and transient third - currently Toney.
        DCL never gets mentioned, but he should be back soon.

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          They're looking just fine without him!

    3. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku, Antonio, Vardy

    4. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Toney Antonio + 1 mid priced. Bamford/DCL if back fit would be the best 2 options I think
