    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      Ziyech is starting due to a clerical error.

  2. Riverside Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 2 months ago

    Can't see Chelsea keeping a clean sheet at this rate

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      1. Riverside Red
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years

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

    Ziyech is shocking

  4. Ruinenlust
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Mudryk looked better against Liverpool.

    Two weeks of training with Chelsea has ruined him

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Liverpool are much worse than Fulham tbf

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

      You'd look good running at a mixture of Trent & Milner.

      1. BUZZBOMB ♡
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Cant decide if Trent & Milner would make a better craft beer or chartered accountants...

        1. Zambian FPL Addict
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

    Potter's had a bad spell in charge. Not been able to work his magic.

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Chelsea paid £18 to Brighton for as compensation for Potter too.

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        *£18 million

        1. fantasist
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          £18 closer to his value right now

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      This is the oposite of his philosophy. Will be suprised if he has success.

  6. Hazz

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely fascinating.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Swindon 3- 3 Gillingham
      4 goals in the first 14 minutes

  15. Ruinenlust
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Enzo best player on the pitch

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      So was Joao Felix on debut, so was Mudryk, I'm sure he'll revert to type next week.

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

        So was Lukaku on his first game haha.

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Give him more time with his team mates. He will look like Bissouma.

  16. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Got Chelsea/Fulham as both teams to score, that really doesn’t look like happening

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wow. Cash out and cut your losses. Can't happen.

  17. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I am happy we got Trossard instead.

    1. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      This

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Likewise, twice the player, a fifth of the price

      1. Sheffield Wednesday
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        ...and half the pace

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          If just pace could make you a good player.

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

    How’s the Ukrainian Dan James playing?

    Missed the first half

    1. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      As effective as Jacob Murphy.

    2. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Like a Chelsea player

    3. Mirror Man
        3 years, 2 months ago

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

    7. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Im seriously thinking my GW23 tfs will be KDB and Martinelli to Mahrez and Ødegaard. Nuts?

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Far from nuts, but also a tad sideways

        1. BUZZBOMB ♡
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          As sideways as it gets but no other pressing requirements as of now.

          1. RICICLE
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            3 years, 2 months ago

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