    Really scary not to own TAA in FH..
    Come on Bobby - make some magic!

    Pope
    VVD - Gabriel - Saiss
    Salah (C) - Son - Saka - Sarr
    Firmino - Lacazette - Jimenez

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Wow, that's a big risk! Hope it works out for you. Good team!

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks!

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Firmino over TAA, why not Fabinho over Salah as well?!? 😉

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Too much money on the bench with: Foster, Zaha, Coady, Tarkowski.

        Next time I’ll go Fabinho!

    3. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Fair play to you. I'd have TAA every day a week and twice on Sunday.

      But no reason why it won't out for you! Love the differential of Bobby.

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Just need a benching for TAA and Robbo and masterclass Babby hattie

  2. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    I predict Bowen will score double the points of any Burnley midfielder who plays twice this gameweek.

    1. Miniboss
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I think you’re right. Surely no-one haa Burnley mids though…

      1. Bunk Moreland
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        I considered McNeil. Ideal priče point, ideal fixtures to avoid fh27. Then I realized he had 0 goals, 0 assist all season. And went for Saka instead.

      2. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Except Cornet owners, I think you called it right.

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Bowen will probably score more in one GW than any Burnley mid will score in both DGWs combined.

    3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Anyone who sold Bowen for a Burnley midfielder should be ashamed.

      I doubt many did this move

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        I really like your positive attitude here.

        1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          Did you do it?

    4. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I've stuck with him on FH

  3. Weeb Kakashi
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Bottomed.

    Does this team require a FH? Can get this with a -4

    Guaita
    Cancelo Digne Semedo
    Rashford Bowen Raphinha
    Ronaldo King Broja

    Thoughts?

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Anyone still own rashford?

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Only me I guess.

    2. Weeb Kakashi
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Rashford Bowen Raphinha Ramsey*

    3. Sandy Ravage
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Maybe add a Burnley player

  4. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    I've only got FH left now

    Found a way to get through these dgws and blanks thanks to Leeds wolves villa arsenal having both a DGW and GW 30 fixture

    Are there going to be any more blanks followed by DGWs after week 30 that the FH shd be saved for?

    Or best to just use it in the coming few weeks?

    Game still updating!?

    1. Neevesy
      • 9 Years

      Need the hamster to speed up

  6. MGMT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Nice to see few teams with Díaz as a punt. Think he will get +100 minutes along both games, and he is the type of player that gets involved in goals directly. Will be a good punt

  7. Ron_Swanson
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Game is updated!

  8. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Can't believe people wildcarded Bowen out against this Newcastle team.

  9. King Carlos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    what's up with Coufal?

    1. Hooky
      • 10 Years

      Hernia

  10. Mighty Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Time to go and see what madness has happened with the ML teams...

  11. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    I think I’m doing

    Salah > Bruno GW 27

    then

    Bruno > Salah GW 28

    -8, Jota + Bruno + Antonio + Pukki to Salah + Raphinha + Jimenez + Weghorst
    Salah (TC)

    1. BoleynWin

      Sitting 2nd behind him in my ML, can never second guess his moves during the week!

  17. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Anyone else seeing last weeks points?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Works now... 🙂

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yer, takes a couple of refreshes to bring it up. Same with Pick Team.

  18. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    How on earth did I end up with Dennis as VC on TC chip?

  19. kempc23
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Sa
    Kilman Bednarek
    Son Coutinho Raphinha
    Jimenez Broja

    Do you think I can get away with Salah to City mid and reverse it next week? Will give me 9 players. Or go all in with FH, I only have one left. Team is on paper well set up all the way thru to 30 at least.

      Another red arrow coming then

    2. Nanoelektronicar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I predicted Bowen's 80%.

      Need Kane to go big over Son. Need a pen.

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Big up the ESR differential!

    4. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I would have expected KDB to be on that list.

      1. Cruyff's Eleven
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Sold for Salah

        1. The Mighty Hippo
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          I've just checked, he's only at 5% ownership.in the top 10k.

    5. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Wow, i actually own the top 7 players. Kane is my big differential. Let's see how it unfolds..

      1. Cruyff's Eleven
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        You are aware this includes King?

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          I have 9/10 most owned assets and no King 😉

          1. Fish up a tree
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 11 months ago

            That means you got Dennis!!

        2. Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          Yes, I am. Dreadful pick, glad to see many are in the same boat! 😀

    6. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Few holes in the top 10K teams next week 😎

    7. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Both Arsenal (114%) and Liverpool (148%) have defence EO's above 100% this GW

    Content creators;

    Wednesday: Convince people that taking huge hits this gameweek is absolutely fine.

    Saturday last minutes before deadline: Wildcard

    1. Bennerman
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah, because this is all make-believe nonsense at its core, and they're taking an awful lot of poor suckers for a ride, with no shame as to how much of a fraud it all is. 'Industry' my backside.

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        A totally free & often enjoyable ride that you're perfectly welcome to ignore. Dont see why so many people complain about this - Black Box & The Wire are great

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          FPL Focal has been slipping, but his EO is still "quite okay" 😉

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      What do they know?

    3. Mighty Banana
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Might be something to do with a few DG's announced, just maybe.

    4. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      That's the problem with following this "content creators" like gospel. 90%+ are absolute rubbish anyway

  22. Dammit_182
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    What’s up with ASM???

  23. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Having interesting duel in my ML this DGW:

    My Ramsdale, VVD, Laporte, Saka, CR7, Dennis
    vs
    His DDG, Alonso, Mahrez, Cornet, Coutinho, King

  24. The Mighty Hippo
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    One benefit of holding out for a gw28 wildcard is that it allows the option of bringing in a couple of Chelsea players for their good fixture run. Although they are always a difficult team to select the best options from.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Think I'm going to wait til 31 for Chelsea now. Gives James & Mount a bit more recovery time anyway

    2. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Rudiger only is fine, innit

      1. Mighty Banana
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        ye bruv

      2. Pompel
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Had hoped his price would have dropped more, though

  25. Mighty Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    My ML of 15 has WC's, BB's & TC's active, most have Salah (c), I'm alone with Trent (c).

    This is what FPL is about!

    1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Big rank movements incoming!

  26. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Me and my main ML rival have both wildcarded into the exact same team - with the only two differences being I have Dubravka & Tierney and he has Foster & Gabriel.

    Not going to be easy to pull back a 20-odd point deficit in the coming weeks with the exact same team is it.
    Just have to hope that we both make some big gains over the next few weeks before we start to diverge (and then I catch him)

  27. FPL_Crisis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Per Liverpool Echo: Tsimikas/Diaz in for Robbo/Mane, Bobby in for Jota, Konate in for Matip
    Fab Thiago Hendo midfield

    Wonder how accurate this is

    1. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      So VVD starting?

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Apparently. As is Trent and Salah
        Predicted:
        Allison
        Tsimi Vvd Konate Trent
        Fab Hendo Thiago
        Salah Firmino Diaz

  28. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    I have just realised I probably don't need to FH in 27 or 30. Is this team really in need of using the FH in 27?

    Dubravka
    Tarkowski (c) - Kilman - Digne - Ayling
    Son - Coutinho - Raphinha
    Broja - Wood - Jiminez

    1. Mighty Banana
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      FH may have a small upside, but without, you get that extra FT later on too, so I'd hold.

  29. Mighty Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    i can't remember the last time we had 6 games on at once... 😀

    1. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      1987 I think

  30. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Salah highest top10k EO ever?

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Probably? I don't think I've ever seen higher.
