        Entitled, While you were sleeping.

    4. No Salah
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It depends. How easily do you cry?

    5. Keventry City
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Depends if his getting 15 across both games will be enough to make you cry

    6. King Prawn
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Here’s some analysis - https://fantasyfootballcommunity.com/should-we-triple-captain-haaland-in-gameweek-23/
      I was wavering but have decided to hit the button!

      1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Boom........the straw that broke my back....TC activated........

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

    Play one:
    a) Shaw (vs lee)
    b) Schar (vs bou)

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

      Schar for me

    2. Nightf0x
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

  3. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bench 1 of
    Botman bruno.mitomq

    1. M2.0
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Tough one, coin toss between bot and bruno for me

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

    A) Bruno to Saka
    B) Shaw/Botman to gabriel

    Have Nke and Ode and 6 mun/nwc

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

      A

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

      I feel like Saka might be handy going into the next run, but I also think an Arsenal defender handy too...

      What is your defence for GW25 looking like?

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

        Ake, struijk and xx

        As now it is Tripp,Shaw, Ake, Struikj ane Borman

        Got some work to do

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

          Feel like an ARS defender would help you out a bit over the next few IMO.

          Get Saka now > sell Botman/Shaw next week > bring back Schar after GW26?

          Or just sell Shaw for Gabriel, retaining Botman (who you can bench.

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

            Thinking Tark in. If i buy saka this round

    Ramsdale
    Botman trippier Shaw
    Saka odegaard Bruno rashford
    Gnonto Kane Haaland

    Robbo, Nico Williams on bench

    A) Bruno for Mahrez (-4)
    B) nico for Akanji (-4)
    C ) Nico for Rico Lewis (-4)
    D) Hold

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      D

  6. raoulduke71
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Play Shaw or Schar?

    1. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Schar

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm playing Schär and benching Shaw

  7. The Parrot
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bottomed

    When it's framed like this does it sound better?

    Martinelli to Ode for free
    And
    Bruno to Mahrez for a hit

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Good moves

    2. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Semantics.

      Do it.

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

      Only first one

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

        First one is funded by second. Both or neither

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

    Anyone have a clue if Bueno will start?

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

      No

      1. Thanos
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks

    2. M2.0
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Just realised he didn’t play the last game, was this tactical?

      1. Thanos
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I hope so. Really need him to start or not come for a cameo altogether.

      2. Keventry City
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah Ait Nouri is meant to be a Salah specialist

        1. Thanos
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I’d love for him to rest on the bench until they play Pool next 😛

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

            I hope you realise Wolves play Liverpool in BGW25 too? (DGW for Wolves though.)

    3. Keventry City
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      60/40 he starts

      1. Thanos
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Hope he starts and makes to 60 minutes!!

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

      Too early to say. May have been rotated or benched for tactical reasons

      1. Thanos
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        No update too so right its conjecture only. But hope he wins back his position.

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

          You can leave the decision until 25 when you have more info

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

    Best City def to get?

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

      Akanji would be my pick if I was going there

    2. Keventry City
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn't go there but if I had to I'd go Rico Lewis as he frees so loads of cash and he equally likely as everyone else to play

    3. Thanos
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Edersen

  10. RaptorRice86
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Play 1…
    Almiron
    March
    Shaw

    My current order of preference

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

      Miggy

      1. RaptorRice86
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ta muchly

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

    Ended up going with Cancelo and Martinelli to Tark and Saka (-4). Tark over City Def leaves more money ITB and covers the blanks.

    GL folks

    0FT 2ITB
    Kepa
    Tripper White Shaw
    Saka Bruno KDB Rashford
    Nketiah Haaland Mitro
    (Ward Andreas Tark Patterson)

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

      Sound moves. GL!

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

        Cheers buddy. What did you end up doing in the end?

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

          Roll FT. Playing:
          Leno
          Trippier Schär Ake
          Saka (C) Ødegaard Rashford Mitoma
          Haaland Kane Nketiah
          (Raya, Fernandes, Shaw, Moreno)

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

            Interesting Saka (c) over Haaland.

            That's probably the players I would have on the bench as well

  12. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A) Martinelli to Saka for -4?
    B) Wilson to Nketiah -4
    C) gtg

    Kepa
    Tripper Estupinian White
    Kulusevski Martinelli Rashford Mahrez
    Wilson Kane Haaland (C)

    Ward Andreas Shaw Bueno

    1.9 ITB

    1. Muller Reus Corner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Kulusevski to Saka

  13. ManUtdFan977
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli to saka 1ft

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

      Yes

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

      It's what I did.

    3. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, that was my transfer this week as well

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

      Yes

  14. The Parrot
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Start one

    A) Shaw
    B) T.Silva

    Ederson in nets

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

      Shaw for the upside

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

      A

  15. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bruno -8 to saka or no

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

      No

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

      -8 always needs more context. Purely on it's own for this week alone, no.

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

      Look at each hit in isolation. 5 fixtures vs 2 and factor in captaincy in 25

      1. Nightf0x
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Will make.this transfer anyway gw25

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

          Why not take advantage of the arsenal double this GW

    4. McGurn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

    5. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years

      no

  16. Lord Flashheart

      B.
      There will be goals at Elland Road

    2. ILOVEBAPS

      Shaw

  17. Pompey5
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Thoughts on WC team below

    Kepa
    Trippier Lewis Gabriel
    Saka KDB Rashford Mitoma
    Nkietah Kane Haaland

    Forster Andres James Tarkowski

  18. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What whould u choose?

    Ward
    Tripp Shaw Mings N.Will Cancelo
    Rash Bruno Martinelli Andreas Almiron
    Haaland Kane Mitro

    2FT.

    a) Cancelo, Almiron -> Gabriel, Ode
    b) a + Bruno -> KDB (-4pts)
    c) a + Martinelli -> Saka (-4pts)
    d) a + Martinelli -> Mahrez (-4pts)

    1. Pompey5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I think all are pretty good but I like c the best. Saka bordering on essential

    2. Muller Reus Corner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      C

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

      c

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

    Pulled the trigger on White to Gabriel (-4), hope it pays off from GW23-28

  20. KaBoZ: Kids,don't Drin…
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A) andreas to mahrez for -4
    B) shaw to ake for -4
    C) don’t take a hit and play both shaw and andreas

    1. Muller Reus Corner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. Pompey5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B
      Would keep Andreas for the upcoming blank.

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A is tempting, but Pep rotation with short turnover make me think stick, as Andreas has a decent fixture.

  21. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bruno to Mahrez for free or roll the FT?

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Free is tempting.

  22. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli to punish the sellers today

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

      As long as Saka outscores him after GW25, I'm OK with that

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

      I am keeping myself. Stats are not bad and he seems involved.

  23. Rash
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Stick or twist?

    Kepa
    Trippier botman white
    KDB saka rashford martinelli
    Kane Haaland Gnonto

    Ward andreas shaw Patterson

    0ft 2.2itb

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      stick

    2. Pompey5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Stick

  24. Bobby Crush
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Should I take a hit?

    Pope
    Shaw, Trippier, Gabriel
    Odegaard, Bruno, Rashford, Almiron
    Kane, Haaland, Nketiah

    Get KDB?
    What else?

    1. Muller Reus Corner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Almiron and Bruno to Mahrez and Saka?

      1. Bobby Crush
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        No more arsenal slots.

  25. Boss Hogg
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    TC Haaland this week?

    a. Yes
    b. No

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I would wait.
      Team is not in form.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes - but don’t be too disappointed if he doesn’t match Rashford

    3. Pompey5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Toss a coin

    Almiron to Mahrez worth a -4? My team looks ropey for gw25
