      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
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      That’s what we like

    2. Zimo
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

    3. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

    4. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      And 3 Baps..

      1. Joelinton Travel Tavern
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

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

    Mitro attempting a Matt Taylor shot

  10. g40steve

    Enzo almost

  11. Over Midwicket
    • 14 Years

    Badiashile is Ashley Williams 2.0. Bap monster.

    1. Zimo
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Should I double up with Kepa?

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Swansea version and not the Everton one

  12. jacob1989

    Enzo almost replicating his WC goal

  13. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 6 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
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Chelsea are very much like a turd rolled in glitter.

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years

      😆

    2. JBG

      Haha

    3. Nomar
      • 16 Years

      Except without the glitter.

    4. sulldaddy
      • 16 Years

      That glitter is actual gold flecks now

    5. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Isn't that offensive to turds?

  15. Rainer
    • 10 Years

    Enzo is quality! Jealous.

  16. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years

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

    1. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I see what you did there

  17. Rainer
    • 10 Years

    1. Zimo
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

      1. Rainer
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yep.

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

        1. Zimo
          • 8 Years

        Yep a horrible auto correct haha

  19. jacob1989

    3 years, 6 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
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Chelsea def need a rebuild

      Time to hit the market

    2. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

  20. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Replacing Kepa weeks back has been very painful..

    1. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Season keeper.

      Literally.

    2. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      yeah i sold him for DDG during the WC

      1. Gandalf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

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

        1. Joelinton Travel Tavern
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          *penalty saved

  21. La Roja

    Keep those baps Kepa

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Just got a big boost.

  22. Bobby Digital
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Kepa 10pts hoooold

  23. JBG
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Please score Fulham

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Behave

  24. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 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
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Kepa since I sold him

      10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10

      1. Nomar
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Just like Torvill and Dean.

  25. fantasist
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Fofana close

  26. romperstomper
    • 17 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Kepa 10 pointer en route

  27. Joelinton Travel Tavern
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

    Should be full bonus for Ream

  29. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 6 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
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Who wants to take this one? 🙂

    2. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

    3. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

    4. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

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

    5. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Love seeing these posts! Always blaming others

      1. Saka White Rice
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

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

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

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