    Ugh, the two Arsenal players I can't afford to have scoring points, Ode and Saka....Need some Martinelli love.

  2. JBG

      You're actually right in 'proper' English. In American English it's titbit.

      It's tidbit in America. They seem scared of words that sound a little like certain other words.

  5. Biggsy

    Wondering if moving Martinelli onto Saka is the way forward....

    I have been saving this super expensive bottle of liquor since a long time and had decided to open after all these three things happen: Messi wins the World Cup, Arsenal wins the league, my daughter gets into a good university. Two out of the three have happened this year itself. Chances all three m happen in the same year and the bottle finally gets opened?

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Is it whiskey?

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        If so, will you share?

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 9 Years

          Always happy to clink the glass!

        Thanks a lot!

  7. putana

    saka and odegaard pushing me into top 100k for first time this season

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      They are pushing me out. Two sides of the coin.

  8. FPLtfs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Saka and Kepa out in a -8. Nice.

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You took Saka out? Why?

      I put him in this week.

      1. FPLtfs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Flagged, and wanted KdB. Darwin and Cancelo had to go as well. Should’ve sticked to the original plan and binned Mount.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Why would you sell Kepa? Hardly any money, there wasn't a single DGW GK I'd want...

      1. FPLtfs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Got Ederson and KdB in for the extra fixtures. Dgw fever.

  9. MJF
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Lol @ that counting as a missed pen for Mitro. When a side concede a disallowed goal their defenders don't lose their clean sheet points if it ends 0-0.

    1. putana
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      he had a penalty and didnt score it. why is that hard to understand?

      1. MJF
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Does a goal that's offside count against the defenders who concede it?

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Is it a goal?

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Apparently Mahrez had a similar penalty disallowed for -2pts too...
      Mitro owner here btw.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sounds like the same thing.

    4. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Posted this on the last page.

      For the Mitrovic slip/double-touch penalty earlier today, this has happened in FPL before.

      Mahrez did the exact same thing taking a peantly for Leicester vs. Manchester City in 2017:
      https://youtu.be/BPQwfETH8jw

      FPL awarded Mahrez a penalty miss:

      Penalty Miss! #FPL
      Mahrez #LEI — Tot: 0 pts

    5. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Of course it's a missed pen. What planet are you on ? As soon as the second touch happens the first touch simply has to be a miss

  10. the axolotl
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Can't even get on the NAL thread now.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It's a DGW and my 1.1% differential Son is doing duck all. Raging on here is not the same.

      1. the axolotl
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Need a kane goal here and for saka to stop it with all the points

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Can't access at all

      1. the axolotl
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        The gremlins are in

  11. sminkypinky
    • 14 Years

    Most of my decisions have gone well this week. Come on Kulu! Keep the momentum going!

    1. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years

      Nearly

      1. sminkypinky
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        And again. Come on!

  12. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What are Mitro owners gonna do with him?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Selling

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Take him down a dark alley

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

      Selling for Toney

      1. Wild Card this!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Hopefully he’ll score another hat-trick against Leeds this season 🙂

    4. Boberella
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably play him vs this spurs team next GW

    5. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Starting v Spurs

    6. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He's out!

    7. MissouriMarten
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Gone

  13. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane testing Rambo

  14. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If White comes off early and Spurs score I'll...do absolutely nothing.

  15. JBG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Oh pi** off Ramsdale

  16. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ramsdale in full worldy mode

  17. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    FT result 3-3

  18. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    FFS why is Ramsdale goating today.

  19. George Sillett
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Arsenal very lucky not to concede

  20. Zladan
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane is an exceptional striker.

    So few in the sport can create a yard as space for a shot as well as he can.

  21. putana
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    spurs goal coming

  22. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Some save from Ramsdale there

  23. JBG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Seriously Ramsdale... you are just annoying now.

  24. jimmy.floyd
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Cucurella to
    A Schar
    B Botman
    C Gabriel
    D White
    E Mee

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Good start to the match from Spurs.

  26. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Well at least Kane is getting chances

  27. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Huge saves from ramsdale at big moments

  28. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Highest prio to get in:

    A) Ødegaard (MUN)
    B) Saka (MUN)
    C) March (lei)
    D) Mitoma (lei)

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      If you space for one from each club, go Brighton first.

  29. Zladan
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    That Sarr lad is crap!

  30. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What does Conte do at halftime though? I'm really curious why Spurs only start playing then.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Blowdryer treatment

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

      Probably shows them live footage of Mafia crew with their pets or something. He's a crazy guy.
