Raphinha starts as Norwich host Leeds in Gameweek 10

Gameweek 10 continues with Norwich City v Leeds United at Carrow Road this afternoon.

Kick-off is at 14:00 BST.

Norwich make three changes from last week’s 7-0 loss at Chelsea, with Kieran Dowell (£5.2m), Milot Rashica (£5.2m) and budget defender Andrew Omobamidele (£3.9m) coming in for the suspended Ben Gibson (£4.4m), Dimitris Giannoulis (£4.4m) and Pierre Lees-Melou (£4.9m).

As a result, it looks like a 3-4-3 formation for Daniel Farke’s side, with Teemu Pukki (£5.8m) leading the line.

As for Leeds, they make one change from Gameweek 9, with Kalvin Phillips (£4.8m) replacing Mateusz Klich (£5.5m) in the XI.

That means a start for Raphinha (£6.6m), who has overcome the ankle injury that forced him off against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

However, Junior Firpo (£4.8m), Luke Ayling (£4.4m), Robin Koch (£4.3m) and Patrick Bamford (£7.7m) all remain out.


GAMEWEEK 10 LINE-UPS

Norwich XI: Krul, Omobamidele, Hanley, Kabak, Aarons, Normann, McLean, Rashica, Sargent, Dowell, Pukki

Subs: Gunn, Giannoulis, Williams, Rupp, Gilmour, Lees-Melou, Placheta, Idah, Tzolis

Leeds XI: Meslier, Shackleton, Llorente, Cooper, Dallas, Struijk, Phillips, Raphinha, James, Harrison, Rodrigo

Subs: Klaesson, Cresswell, Hjelde, Drameh, Summerville, Forshaw, Klich, Roberts, Gelhardt

    Huge red arrow with that Raph return 🙁

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Yep

  2. sirmorbach

    With 2 ft, should I bring in Chilwell/James for Azpi? Or wait?

    1. Dannyb
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If Azpi gets benched next week he's out for James or Rudiger.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        So wait it is? Cheers!

      Depends on the rest of your defensive makeup, do you only have 1 Chelsea def?

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks! Yes, only one: Azpi, and then Dias, Cancelo, TAA, and Livra.

      If no other issues I would for sure get rid of Azpi and maybe carry the other FT into the IB.
      Azpi is a boring pick when there is Chilly and James ripping it up, scoring goals and playing like attackers.
      Yes, they'll miss the odd game, but so will Azpi.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thank you, sir. Thank you very much indeed. If I may: do it now, you reckon, or wait to see if something else comes up?

    A lot of unnecessary Drameh around that Shackleton substitution.

  4. SEXY SON
    • 7 Years

    Who is this Normann player?

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

          He’s a Norwegian and Normann actually means Norwegian in Norwegian

  5. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pretty sure Leeds were gonna hook Raph till that Shack injury

  6. More Cowbell

    Imagine not having raphina

    1. Costa Nostra

      Plenty were talking the smack earlier! So finicky... raphina is a season keeper.

      Is Coufal out of favour at the moment? I know he's had injury issues of late but seems a bit in and out of the side

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Johnson been great in his spot since Coufal picked up a knock.

      Villa ITK was correct. Ings injured and Mings dropped. Luiz also missing.

  9. WVA
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Please no Benrahma

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ffsssssssssss 1 point max for him blocking Gallagher from first on my bench

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Don’t be such a deadbeat. Could easily do well

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Ha you'll see mate

  10. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    James or Chilwell?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Chilly.

    2. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Chilwell appears less likely to be dropped (so far at least)

    3. moment
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'm going with both. If choosing one I'd go Chilly.

    4. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      James for me.
      People say that James is more likely to be rested than Chilly - but it also seems like they are suffering from 'Alonso-amnesia'.
      Chilly actually has the stronger competition for his place.

      James has turned a corner this last two weeks - and listening to a few Chelsea fans I know, they think James is now 'undroppable' (I don't necessarily agree with that though).
      I just think Azpi is not a RWB really, so he'll get the odd game there, but James has played himself into being undisputed first choice RWB and is a better attacker than any Chelsea DFer (honourable mention to Chilly obviously)

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thing with James is if he doesn’t start he’s likely to be brought in for 1 pt. Chilwell either plays 90 or 0.

        1. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Don't think it matters - still the 5th highest scored in the game with a 1 pointer 3 times
          4th highest is Antonia, just 2.5m more! .. he has had 3 games (full 90 minutes) where he has scored -1,1 and 2

  11. have you seen cyan

    harrison is garbage

  12. Steve The Spud

    Raph on track for super rare double digit haul

    1. More Cowbell
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Lovely

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I guaranteed that before the game

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

      So who are you getting rid of 1st, Raph or Sarr lol.

    4. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years

      Beautiful

  13. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Would you look to bring Raph in for any of these?

    Sanchez
    Trent - Rudiger - Cancelo - Chilwell
    Salah - Son - ESR
    Vardy - Antonio - Toney

    Steele - Livra - Gray - Sissoko

    1. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Rudiger & Gray > Raphina & White?

      1. badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Tie your knee down. Why would you get rid of Rudiger.

        1. Kodap
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          So I don’t have to bench someone every week haha, have Chilwell too.

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

      I have Raphinha but I'm not sure I'd buy him right now. Much less sell a Chelsea defender to accommodate it

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Raph probably in a don't buy, don't sell situation

    4. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Thanks for the replies chaps

  14. Will Kane
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I am very scared of Antonio today

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Me too.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      That's millions of years of evolution in action

      Your subconscious knows that Antonio has been pretty much one of the most effective strikers in world football over the last almost 2 years now - and it's trying to signal to you the danger you're in

      Fear has a function in some cases

  15. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Ings out

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      And Mings on the bench. Fill yer boots Antman

  16. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Ings dropped like a hot potato

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

      Baked his hammy.

  17. SEXY SON
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Looking strong for next week which probably means a red arrow:

    Sanchez
    Trent | Cancelo | James | Livramento
    Salah | Son | Raphinha | ESR
    Kane | Antonio

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

      Still have Kane & Son.
      But maybe Nuno'll be gone by then.

      1. 272MK
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Nuno out.

        In comes Ole

      2. SEXY SON
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yes Nuno is gone this week

  18. OPTA FPL

    Aaron Ramsey on the bench

  19. My heart goes Salalalalah

    What does Mount & the Indian cricket team have in common this weekend?

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

      Didn't turn up

      1. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 7 Years

        Yep

  20. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years

    I need 27 points from Antonio and Townsend to make 100

    Any chance?

  21. EL tridente

    Who would you rather have in your team?
    A) Vardy
    B) Antonio

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

      Vardy next GW.

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      B x100

  22. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Feel an Antonio haul incoming. That Villa side looks very poor

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

      Yeah, me getting rid of Antonio may come back to haunt me.

      Can always get him back though 🙂

  23. Sim Simma

    Drameh on the pitch

  24. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Would you do Gray & Rudiger > Raphina & White?

    Already own Chilwell & White would be for the bench.

  25. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Raphinha pissing away BPS.

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

      He still has time assist or score..

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

      He is not inclinded to the bonus points system anyway.

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

      He should get at least 2 unless he takes yellow.

  26. Ha.
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I was banking on a DLuiz haul… now get Duffy off the bench

  27. thegaffer82
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    20 minutes ago people were talking about selling Raph.
    Now, I'm seeing posts saying who should I sell to bring in Raph.

    FPL really can turn on a dime can't it 🙂

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

    What's happened to Harrison? He's been dreadful, a completely different player from last season. Looks to have no confidence when on the ball, touch is poor, doesn't seem to want to take players on

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Not playing for a contract anymore?
