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

  2. MindlessFreak2

    3 years, 4 months ago

    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, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      Is Salah worth it?

  3. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

      No he isn't

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Coufal & Perraud at 4.1 each too

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He actually has quite decent attacking stats too

  5. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

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

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months 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

  6. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

      The answer is no

  7. ☈☾
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

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

  8. SKENG
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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?

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

    A. Gomez
    or
    B. Tarkowski

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Gomez - if you have a third slot

    2. C0YS
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      B

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on midweek.

    4. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Matip surely a threat

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

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

  10. TorresMagic™
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Last Man Standing Update (538 teams)

    Current safety score including autosubs = 43
    Top score = 74
    LMS average = 48.06 (-0.16) = 47.9 pre autosubs
    Players played pre autosubs = 10.47/12.01 Kane 76 EO
    Captains played = 98.14%

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

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

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        All up to Kane.

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months 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™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        2 pointer might knock you out, will be close.

    3. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months 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™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Jinxed Kane now, good job 😛

        1. FPL_trail_runner
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      42 with just Kane left. Living on the edge.

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

      Yes to first question

  12. Tomerick
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Gakpo nailed for the double?

    1. The Senate
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Interested in this

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

      No but worth the risk

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

      Not with Jota and Firmino available

    4. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Can't be with Jota and Firmino back

    5. SKENG
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months 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)

  13. The Senate
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

      It's good, could be very good

      48 all out for me 🙁

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

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

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months 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
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months 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

  14. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which option:

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

    1. SKENG
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

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

      B if you are chasing

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

        B

  15. C0YS
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      Gakpo & Tark

      1. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

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

  16. FPL_trail_runner
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      You're a genius

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months 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
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 4 months 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
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Another bitter haaland captainer

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

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

  17. Tartan Brazilians
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Potter

    2. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Because he's rubbish

    3. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The answer is that he's crap

  18. Corgz Dark side of the Loon

    Guys, Would you remove KDB for either

    A, Saka
    B, Salah

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years

      A

  19. Tcheco

    Kane time

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Dont think so...........Kane getting nothing out of WHU today.

  20. BS03
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    hi guys early fh25 draft appreciate any feedback:

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

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

      G2G

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

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

      Yes

  22. Tcheco
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Bavis at wingback means he hauls today

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

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

    1. Big Mac 24
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Rarely does he blank twice in a row

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

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

  24. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      1. Last two
      2. No

  25. putana
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

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

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You'll break even

    2. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Blimey

      1. putana
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

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

  26. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

      TAA

    2. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

      No

    4. Bluetiger1
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No

  27. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months 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, 4 months 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, 4 months ago

        Saka in that case?

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

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

    3. SKENG
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Saka if you don't have him.

    4. Bluetiger1
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

      A or B

  28. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kaptain time 😉

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      On the evidence of the fact Spurs dont get a penatly when Kehrer decided to do what he likes with the ball with his hand id be banking on those 2 points now

  29. FPL_trail_runner
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What in the world was that - i mean seriously thats the worst decision ive ever seen with Var

  30. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How was that not a pen!?

    1. MIGHTY JOE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No idea

    2. mattressman
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Apparently West Ham can play with two goalkeepers. The same was with Soucek vs Arsenal

      1. mattressman
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        *Chelsea

    3. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

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

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

        Agree

        VAR last two weeks has made terrible mistakes

    4. Bakutaner
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah, I am also confused

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

      Defo hand in way of ball
