      He's also going to be nailed for the league. Already favoured over Koulibaly & he's not in the Champions League squad, so won't need to be rotated around games.

      Indeed

      Kepa with the softest save point ever

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

        That’s what we like

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

        And in the running for 3 bonus. Let's go!

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

        Really should not have dropped him on WC. Guaranteed 10 points every week.

      4. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        And 3 Baps..

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

          Whoa he just suddenly went way clear in the baps running! He's an absolute goldmine.

      Badiashile is Ashley Williams 2.0. Bap monster.

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

        Should I double up with Kepa?

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

        Swansea version and not the Everton one

      Enzo almost replicating his WC goal

    13. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nice shot by Enzo. But, really, all I need is for Kepa to make a couple more soft saves and not let one in.

    14. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years

      Chelsea are very much like a turd rolled in glitter.

      1. Art Vandelay

      4. sulldaddy

        That glitter is actual gold flecks now

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

        Isn't that offensive to turds?

      Enzo is quality! Jealous.

      I’ve not seen Sterling crash this bad since Liz Truss.

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

        I see what you did there

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

      Complete them passes, Kepa lad!

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

        Did he get them? He's 6 baps ahead of everyone now.

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

          Yep.

          +6 for 30 complete passes at 90% or higher.

          1. Zimo

    19. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      LIV & CHE are now officially no longer a top 4 or even top 6 team in the PL.
      They should both try to avoid getting 7th & being in Conference League so next year they can rebuild.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Chelsea def need a rebuild

        Time to hit the market

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

        Chelsea need to rebuild after the most transfer activity ever and spending the GDP of a small nation!

    20. Gandalf

      • 15 Years

      Replacing Kepa weeks back has been very painful..

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

        Season keeper.

        Literally.

          Waiting now for the usual Mitrovic penalty miss to rub it in more

        Just got a big boost.

      Please score Fulham

        Behave

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

      Mitro since I brought him: 0, 5, 0, 2 and today 2. Too good for Championship, not good enough for PL. Can’t wait to see the back of him.

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

        Kepa since I sold him

        1. Nomar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years

          Just like Torvill and Dean.

    25. fantasist
      • 16 Years

      Fofana close

    26. romperstomper
      • 16 Years

      Kepa 10 pointer en route

    27. Joelinton Travel Tavern
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Chelsea looking better defensively, restricting oppo to low value shots, meaning Kepa is getting plenty of easy saves. He might be the best GK to own in the game rn.

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

      Should be full bonus for Ream

    29. Saka White Rice
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ok so apparently Kepa is now the best goalkeeper in the world. I'm so mad at myself for listening to the vast majority of people who 2 gameweeks ago were convinced Raya was a better option than Kepa...

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

        Who wants to take this one? 🙂

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

        Sylvester Stallone is the best keeper in the world. Stop being silly.

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

        I only know 25 letters of the alphabet.
        Don't know y

      4. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He’s a Keepa. What else did you expect?

      5. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Love seeing these posts! Always blaming others

        1. Saka White Rice
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Can you read? "I'm so mad at myself"

      6. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        What? Raya is actually better than Arrizabalaga in real life. Both are equally good FPL options. That's about it.
