        7th week in a row then. What a player

    Happy Rangnick Day!

    Are we harbouring any hope that Toney gets more that two points today folks???!!!

  4. ClaudesMackerelelé

    4 years, 4 months ago

    Raheem Sterling. Talk to me?
    Fixtures, form, ability...

    1. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      the thing is the price, it's a punt but too expensive if he gets rotated which he's in high risk of. The rest of the squad suffers a bit too much. You want nailedness at that price

    2. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      At least 3 midfielders just in his own team that I would want ahead of him.

      1. ClaudesMackerelelé
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah price is poor i agree
        Differential tho

  5. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Kane ends his goal drought today
    Not a good day for those who sold

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

      11 blanks in 12 appearances. I don't like your odds.

      1. Digital-Real
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Lets revisit this in a few hours. Okay?

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

          Uh oh.

          @Mods, can you delete my post please?

        2. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          In all seriousness he might do well today if he's not dropping deep so much. Conte's side have been improving with every game, so it's surely only a matter of time until Kane scores. And although Norwich have improved under Smith, they're not exactly prime Stoke.

          Good luck sir. I will be rooting for Son.

  6. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Raphinha owners what's the plan? Is he a 100% sell?

    Feels difficult to keep hold of him when he has city Chelsea and Liverpool all away in the next four.

    1. Crystal Alice
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      sold for Bowen

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sell for Bowen or city mids

    3. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Planning to sell - just need to find a replacement!

    4. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      sold him before he even played it today for bernardo

    5. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I might just bench him for most games as i have a 14 player squad

    6. Pops15
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Selling for Bowen most likely

    7. FPLMACKEM
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Already have Foden and Antonio.

      I might go for smith Rowe or Bowen and double up on west Ham attack.

  7. Grounderz
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    I don't expect a lot of changes made to the Man Utd team, formation and line-up, given that's only one training session. But I'd love to see the below and an actual football game, really.

    DDG
    Dalot Lindelof Maguire Telles
    Fred
    VDB Bruno
    Sancho Ronaldo Rashford

    1. Grounderz
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Failed with the formation.

      ----------------DDG----------------
      Dalot Lindelof Maguire Telles
      ---------------Fred------------------
      -----------VDB Bruno-------------
      --Sancho Ronaldo Rashford--

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

        Feels imbalanced to me. 7 offensive players and 3 defensive.

        If you play aggressive fullbacks, like Liverpool, you need 8s that can cover for them and do defensive work.

    2. bombonera
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Utd unchanged today from Thursday

  8. CABAYE4
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Do people think the boat has gone on getting Jota in?

    Is Firmino going to be back soon?

    1. Digital-Real
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Firmino is still a few week away from full fitness

    2. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sounds like he's back training (not sure if it's full training though) but Klopp said he's still a couple of weeks away

    3. Lucky Z
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      To the time Firmino be fit, Salah nad Mane be heading to Africa

    4. Gross Blank Point
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Firmino has played 367 mins in 15 GWs so far, I'm not sure if he'll manage a run of games without breaking down again

  9. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Taking my mind off FPL by playing fantasy games in other sports is not always the best approach, as it just adds to the frustration!

  10. Soto Ayam
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What's the general consensus about Berni Silva?

    Great pick, great form and fixtures, and as nailed as you can be in man city team.

    Or too much of a rotation risk for a city asset with a heavy schedule approaching?

    Thinking to get him and not over think it.

    1. Grounderz
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Great pick. On the football side, I have always seen him as the actual successor to David Silva more so than Foden (what a lot of people have been saying). Bernardo Silva has the quick agility, technical skills, passing ability, and elements close to David Silva.

    2. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I over thought it this week. Decided he was a rotation risk for Watford and got Reguilon instead on Saturday morning.

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I'd have taken reguli. Cheers

    3. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Most in form player, playing for the best team in the league, it's a bit of a no brainer.

      He's as nailed as anyone in that team right now

    4. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He's doing what Gundogan did at a similar time last year

    5. Soto Ayam
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers all

  11. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Bowen or City mid who is the bigger priority?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Mci mid

    2. Grounderz
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Bowen, kinder fixtures and form. I'd like his run-in and approach at the final third, and that suggests a lot of chance/goal opportunities.

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Thinking of doubling up with Antonio. Call me crazy.

      1. bigwig
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I think thats alright with the fixtures, not crazy

    4. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Tough one. I’ve got Gundo but want Bernardo too. I also want Ronaldo and Bowen or Antonio. Got to prioritise but can’t decide yet.

    5. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Silva has overperformed quite significantly recently, but he's stats are very good either way, so not a bad option. But far from essential imho. Bowen also very good, similiar stats, but being less expensive and a bit more nailed swings it in his favour imho.

  12. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Son brace incoming folks...not too long to wait now.

    1. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Hopefully with Kane assists, if not I'm gonna puke

    2. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Hopefully!!! Coupled with A Toney brace!!!

    3. Bavarian

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I did 3 weeks ago. Great decision

        1. Gooner97

    How bad is Cornet’s injury?

    Considering him

    1. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Muscle injury, will be at least a couples of week probably 3 I would have thought

      1. bigwig
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Which in December is too many gameweeks to be considering it

  17. davies
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Best route to a City mid with this lot? (0 ITB)

    Sanchez 4.0
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso Bavies
    Salah Jota Raphinha ESR Luiz
    Ronaldo Antonio King

    Cheers.

    1. MARVELLUS
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Raph and Bavies out

      1. davies
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Bavies is 4.4…

    2. mcginnntonic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Our teams are very similar, I'm planning on losing alonso - chelsea defence not looking great and fixtures aren't plush either

  18. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Decisions, decisions. Sick of casuals changing the price all over the place. 2FTs

    Sanchez
    Trent, James, Rudiger, Cancelo
    Salah (c), Jota, Son, Bernardo
    Antonio, Toney

    Steele, Johnson, Gallagher, Gelhardt

    A) Toney, Gallahger, Johnson > Locadia, Bowen, Reguilon (-4)
    B) Toney, Gallahger, Johnson > Locadia, Bowen, Cresswell (-4)
    C) Toney, Gallagher > Dennis & Bowen
    D) Other recommendations? I have 2FTs, so may as well burn one somewhere

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      C

    2. bigwig
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      C

  19. mojoindojo
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Bench 1
    Saka
    Antonio
    Bowen
    Dennis

    1. MARVELLUS
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Saka

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Saka (SOU)
      Antonio (bur)
      Bowen (bur)
      Dennis (bre)

      Fixed.

      Either Dennis or Saka I think, Burnley only have 2 CSs all season. Saka's not got a lot of minutes recently, any idea as to why that is?

    3. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Play Saka.

      A lot of 1st team players are out for Saints

  20. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    If Kane blanks today, I will absolutely lol @ owners

  21. Slitherene
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Made the transfers last night, had exact money..

    Son - Cornet - Mbeumo ->
    Foden - Bowen - Mount

    Hoping it doesn't backfire!

    1. mcginnntonic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      thats some nice moves

      1. Slitherene
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks! Didn't realize there were midweek games as well

  22. mcginnntonic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Not a great week so far.

    If Ronaldo is fit, would you do for a -4 Kane Raphina Alonso to Ronaldo Foden Johnson (5th def)

  23. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Would love Dalot to become an option at 4.4m

  24. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    City assets on a WC.
    1. Better pick between a.Laporte and b.Walker?
    2. Is a. Foden a better pick than b. Bilva?

    1. mcginnntonic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I think I'm gonna go foden over Bilva far better underlying stats and should have hauled yday

    2. Scrumper
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Walker, Foden IMO

  25. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Reguilon benched is my guess

    1. _Gunner
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I just brought him in, don't do that

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Sessegnon suspended for midweek must-win game

  26. _Gunner
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Come on Conte, start Reguilion please

  27. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Bernardo or ESR this week?

  28. Mozumbus
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Is Matip nailed?

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Painful

  29. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez (Foster***)
    Cancelo TAA Alonso* (Livra, Amartey)
    Salah Son Foden Jota ESR
    Antonio Dennis (Broja)

    1FT, 0.9ITB

    What would you do with this lot?
    Upgrade attackers or change the midfield or get a backup goalie?

  30. Alexis Nonsense
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Am I mad to go Foden over Silva? Funds no problem
