    Looking at this WHU lineup, I’m wondering how long will Emerson and Coufal be starters? 4.0 and 4.1 cheap as chips.

    https://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/4498636/event/24 - Who would you take out to get to Salah? 0.1m away from Fernandes to Salah and Maddison I only transferred in last week

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Probably Kane. Maybe White if you want to open the 3rd Arsenal spot

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is Salah worth it?

  3. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Looking at Kdb and Shaw to Salah and Vvd for a -4 I think

  4. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Emerson with his 4th league start in a row. Certainly an option to keep on the watchlist for anyone looking to WC soon.

    1. Mirror Man
        3 years, 1 month ago

        No he isn't

      • SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Coufal & Perraud at 4.1 each too

      • Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He actually has quite decent attacking stats too

    2. Shark Team
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Unpopular opinion:
      Shaw Bruno can outscore Estupinan Mitoma/March in 27
      How can you sell them now?

      1. AlCapwnUK
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        if liverpool don't blank then it might challenge the WC 27 FH28 gang

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

        For my team, Shaw is a bit easier to hold than Bruno. Blanking in 25 and 28 makes Bruno at 9.8m an easy sell in 25 imo

    3. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Hoping today's match gives some clarity as to whether to drop Kane for the DGW

      1. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        The answer is no

    4. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Table after Ronaldo left

      1. United 11 Played 26 points
      2. City 11 Played 20 points
      3. Arsenal 10 Played 20 points
      4. Brentford 9 Played 19 points

      1. AlCapwnUK
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        i think it's more ten haag than ronaldo but i don't think you could have one without losing the other

    5. SKENG
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Can I get your thoughts on this team?

      Kepa (Ward)
      Bueno (Trippier* Shaw* Martinez* Patterson*)
      Saka Odegaard Martinelli KDB (Rashford*)
      Haaland Kane Gnonto

      Currently have 9 starters (don't think Patterson will start), 2 FTs, 0.0M ITB. It feels like my transfers should be focused on defense where I only have 1 starter.

      A) KDB, Shaw, Martinez > Gakpo, TAA, Robertson -4
      B) KDB, Shaw, Patterson > Salah, Tarkowski, Mykolenko -4
      C) KDB, Kane, Shaw, Patterson > Salah, Darwin, TAA, Tarkowski -8
      D) something better I am missing?

    6. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A. Gomez
      or
      B. Tarkowski

      1. AlCapwnUK
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Gomez - if you have a third slot

      2. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        B

      3. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Depends on midweek.

      4. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Matip surely a threat

        1. GC123
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I was thinking the same although he was Captain Calamity v Wolves so is maybe out of favour? Tark seems the obvious option but you just don’t know what Everton are going to fish up in the DGW. I’m just gutted Patterson isn’t match fit yet as I’ve held on to him for ages hoping he’d be back for next week. Could have done without Coleman scoring yesterday!

      5. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Is Gomez nailed with Matip available? Tark nailed and has threat from set pieces

    7. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        46 with no Kane
        Think I'm out this week!

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          All up to Kane.

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

        Wow thought might be lower - all out on 44 for me despite fairly template team and overall rank down just over 1K so far so hope Kane stays quiet I guess!

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          2 pointer might knock you out, will be close.

      3. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I have no idea how people dont make the grade in this LMS leagues

        I mean im having one of my worst weeks of the year and im 1 point off safety score with Kane to go

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Jinxed Kane now, good job 😛

          1. FPL_trail_runner
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Looks likely given that 5min of west ham deciding they are allowed to play Aussi rules when they like

      4. Deer-in-headlights
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        42 with just Kane left. Living on the edge.

    8. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is KDB Shaw to Salah TAA the best moves for team below for -4?
      A Yes
      B No

      If No what moves would you suggest?

      And would you take extra hit on Patterson to Tarkowski if Dyche says not ready ?

      1Yes
      2 No

      Kepa
      TAA Patterson* White
      Salah (c) Saka Mahrez Andreas
      Haaland João Felix Nketiah

      Ward Rashford Trippier Botman

      1. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes to first question

    9. Tomerick
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is Gakpo nailed for the double?

      1. The Senate
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Interested in this

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          He should get minutes, but do check Liv quadruple transfer. There is answer to this question.

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

        No but worth the risk

      3. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Not with Jota and Firmino available

      4. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Can't be with Jota and Firmino back

      5. SKENG
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He's definitely not. I think he'll play against Madrid so could very well be benched against Palace with Jota and Firmino back.

      6. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Firmino & Jota both being back at this point in time really muddies the waters.

        Two weeks ago, there was nobody else. Now there are 5 decent players all vying for 3 spots (+ AOC)

    10. The Senate
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      52 + Kane in a GW like this with a captain fail is decent I think

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It's good, could be very good

        48 all out for me 🙁

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

        56 with just Kane to go here also with a captain fail, taking it and running

      3. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        47 + Kane - Rashford/Fernandes/Shaw dug me out of a horrible night last night - fingers cross Kane with extras to finish better than the original disaster I thought I had for GW24

        1. Bluetiger1
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yep - thought Haaland would score & missed some sitters yesterday annoying for City
          and all FPL managers who might have had in as GW24 captain.

          Congrats to any Rashford capt etc

    11. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Which option:

      A) KDB to Salah
      B) KDB + White to Saka + TAA for -4

      1. SKENG
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        A

      2. Tartan Brazilians
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        B if you are chasing

        1. Bluetiger1
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          B

    12. C0YS
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Better duo for the next few GW’s?

      A) Gakpo + Botman
      B) Mahrez + Tarkowski

      Currently on Mahrez & Botman.

      Cheers

      1. Tartan Brazilians
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Gakpo & Tark

        1. C0YS
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Would take a -8 and I’m not sure I want to do that

    13. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think its a good decision based on the debate in the previous post that we decide on what are good fpl decisions going forward only based on the outcome itself and based on fpl points itself alone 🙂

      With this in mind its rather telling around here how bad people are at fpl given the lack of Seamus coleman captain discussions prior to the weekend - especially those who went for Haaland who only got 2 points.

      Obvious reasons :

      Everton in good home form
      Leeds cant score
      Everton zero goals conceeded under Dyche at home
      Fully rested Everton and Leeds dont have a manager
      Seamus coleman scored and got 15 points so good decision in my book.

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        You're a genius

        1. FPL_trail_runner
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          No, dont thank me, its all the people in the previous post who were smart enough to declare Rashford the better captain choice over Haaland when Rashford scored.

          1. Bluetiger1
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Rashford & Haaland both keep in current team

            Current form Rashford shading it just from Haaland with weekend results on top,
            watching highlights yesterday Haaland could/should have had a hattrick then debate might be different

            Personally keeping both

      2. Shultan
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Another bitter haaland captainer

        1. FPL_trail_runner
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I have alot more important things in life to worry about than some captain points.

    14. Tartan Brazilians
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Why did Cucurella not play yesterday? Dropped or injury/illness? He had played the last few league games.

      1. Mr. O'Connell

        Potter

      2. TheTinman
        • 10 Years

        Because he's rubbish

      3. Gooner97
        • 12 Years

        The answer is that he's crap

      hi guys early fh25 draft appreciate any feedback:

      sa
      trent - tark- robbo
      salah - ode - saka - bowen - iwobi/neves
      nketiah - haaland

      1. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        G2G

        Seems lie during the DGW have nine for the week
        should see Green arrow go up massively

    18. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mins in last 2 games against Everton and Newcastle

      Firmino - 10 and 31
      Jota - 20 and 31
      Darwin - 70 and 59
      Gakpo - 80 and 59

      Firmino and Jota eased in with mins off the bench in the last 2 games and likely pushing for a start now

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes

    19. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bavis at wingback means he hauls today

    20. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      About time for Kane to deliver, he’s 9 goals behind Haaland

      1. Big Mac 24
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Rarely does he blank twice in a row

        1. FPL_trail_runner
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          As a longterm Kane owner playing with another CF is not a super thing for his fpl prospects for me

    21. Gazzpfc
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      1 Gakpo and Trent or Salah and Gomez?
      2. Darwin worth a -4 from Nketiah?

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        1. Last two
        2. No

    22. putana
      • 7 Years

      did kane -> felix. Let's see if it ruins my good gameweek

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

        You'll break even

      2. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Blimey

        1. putana
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          needed to sell kane to do bruno to salah next week anyways.

    23. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If you still had the TC would you play it next week? If so, on who?

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        TAA

      2. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Would have played on an ARS player if there ever was one on form

      3. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        No

      4. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        No

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

      Guys, Would you remove KDB v Bournemouth ??
      Yes or No.
      And if you did would it be for for either.

      A, Saka
      B, Salah
      C, Gakpo

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        See no reason why not, not like KDB is lighting anything up is it

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

          Saka in that case?

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

        Yup Saka and Salah likely to the 2 best captaincy picks for 25

        VAR loves West Ham. Soucek vs Chelsea. And now this.
