    I've never seen a team look as much like a FUT team than this Forest side.

      They just need KDB on a 10 match contract and prime Romario and I'd think I was watching FIFA.

    Ocon is having a mare of a race today.

    - 5 second penalty for not correctly in his starting position
    - 10 second penalty for serving time penalty in correctly
    - 5 second penalty for speeding in the pit lane

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

        Still isn't last place after serving 2 of the 3 time pens

    I’ve not considered him up until now.
    But, anyone considering Brennan Johnson on the DGW29 fixtures?
    Wolves and Leeds are pretty decent!

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      yeah

      it's possible

      Depends on the home fixtures and you'd probably bench away... so not ideal.

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      yes

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Who'll you sell for him? Or is this a Free Hit?

      1. Baked baines
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Will take Haaland out for him and bring him back next GW

    4. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Owned him since gw 21 and Will continue to hold up until gw 29(will bench vs tot). Fantastic value and easily benchable at that price for the tougher fixtures.

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Brilliant stuff. Rotating with your fifth mid?

    5. Bluetiger1

      Interesting as a lot of talk of Watkins/Inns/Toney/Felix DGW but Johnson underneath the radar currently showing at 5.7 m
      fifth overall - ahead of Mitrovic/Ings- gives alternative option on Paper showing easier fixtures with the plus getting over 81mins each game recently since GW15 & scoring - Watkins at Toney shaded it but something to consider for a DGW a certain starter & not an issue with conceding goals

    Predictions for the El Plastico?, I’ll go 1-1

    1. Dennis System
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Predictions for what??

      1. villa_til_i_die
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Pool/Utd

        1. Dennis System
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 days ago

          Who calls it that

        2. JBG
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 days ago

          How's that the El Plastico?

          Anyways, 1-2.

    2. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      2-2. Goals for Fred, Antony, Elliott and Henderson. Salah and Rashford get an assist each

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Interesting term - 'El Plastico'

      Liverpool 1 v 2 Manchester United (currently chasing four trophies - on in the bag out of the four)

  7. FDMS All Starz

    Would you do Sanchez & Martinelli to De Gea & Mac Alister for a -4?

    1. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Got kepa for gw 28

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Wouldn't sell Martinelli for a hit

    Happy Mark got BJ in. A new green arrow.

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Good Call

  9. Tic Tacs
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    I'm not making any kneejerk transfers this week, and may still BB27. Sanchez may well come in for the double after being dropped but will wait for news, if not I can bring in Steele or hold for BB29. Not been an ideal wildcard week but gonna stick to the plan.
