        Winning a trophy is something that he’s never ever done. Stayed at white hart lane, but one time he could have been champiiiiiiiiiiion of the woooooooorrrrrllld.

          The window opened but he never got sold, just like the time before and the time before that

    Toney Hattrick is inevitable

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam

      Own Goal missed pen and red card?

      1. M2.0
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        And a bet on all 3

      2. cutch
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I buy the own goal and the red card... But I don't recall him ever missing a penalty

  4. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years

    Hopefully Havertz doesn’t outscore Watkins in the next 3…

    1. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Room for both? I’m (probably) going Toney to Hav next week.

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Now that’s thinking outside the box!

  5. Crazy RedDevil
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Shaw or trippier for DGW 29?

  6. Joyce1998
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A- Gabriel

    Or

    B- Zinchenko

    bottomed

  7. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Mahrez -4 to son/mads bench slaiba or start saliba

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

      I'd sell Mahrez anyway, for Maddison

      But since you somehow already have XI, maybe that'll be after the deadline instead

      Is there anybody else you can bench, who'll come on for Saliba if he doesn't play vs Palace? I don't see him being subbed on

      So if you have a Brentford defender who you can put at first sub, for example, I'd take the Maddison hit now

      1. Nightf0x
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Only got 11 playing no bench

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

          Deadline's gone, but I said I'd buy Maddison here and bench a Brentford defender with Saliba starting

          Then the Brentford def gets auto-subbed on if Saliba misses out

          If everybody in the XI has a good fixture, then Maddison comes in for Mahrez for free in GW29 instead

    Any leaked team news indicating Brennan Johnson starts?

  9. ididnt

    1. M2.0
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maddison, doubles next week. Unless this is a FH team?

      1. ididnt
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Wildcard

        1. M2.0

    My FH draft, last minute changes made.

    Kepa (Forster)
    Trippier, Chillwell, Gabriel (Cash, Kilman)
    Son, Trossard, Saka (c), Maddison (Jensen)
    Kane (v), Toney, Watkins

    Suggestions or remarks?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No James? I got him on my FH - treble Chelsea defence

  13. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Salah to Maddison for a hit crazy? Gets me 9 players

    1. M2.0
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely not crazy

    2. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No but I don’t trust Maddison great player in a shite team.

  14. CoracAld2831
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Mee to Chilwell or save FT?

    1. CoracAld2831
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I have full 11 already.

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Save then will need it gw29

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

      Save

      1. CoracAld2831
        • 5 Years

        Thank you.

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

      I'd do it.

      1. CoracAld2831
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Was too risky with the IB coming.

        Feel like 2 FT was more valuable.

  15. Ian Davis
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    MacAllister or Mitoma out for Maddison (-4) to field 11, or save for next week?

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

      Save

  16. Baron Penguin

    If I see another content creator doing Henry to Chilwell and Haaland to Watkins I’ll scream! So boring.

    1. M2.0
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe stop watching content creators?

  17. gellinmagellan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    For WC team. Which one of the two?
    A) Son + Mac + Cash + Steele
    B) Maddison + Martinelli + James + Raya

    Kepa Steele
    Trippier Zinchenko Chilwell Botman Cash
    Son Saka (C) (Mitoma Mac Rashford)
    Kane Watkins Kai

  18. MindlessFreak2
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Why did Conte say everyone is fine? Nothing about son..

    1. reo19uk
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is he not included in the everyone bit?

      1. MindlessFreak2
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes but why did he miss training then?

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

      Because Son is fine?

      1. MindlessFreak2
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Where is this confirmed after missing training?

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

          Somewhere within "Everyone is fine", would be my guess

          1. MindlessFreak2
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Fair enough lol thanks - I went with him on wildcard anywyay

    3. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe Conte just had a Sonny disposition and was feeling fine?

  19. Bubbles1985
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Zinchenko or Gabriel?

    It happened for the first time for me, last minute moves and I don't know what I have ended up with...I think I have benched Martinelli on my WC and am playing 5 defenders...including triple Newcastle. RIP

      Last minute swap to Watkins captaincy from Odegaard. It’ll end in tears

  30. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ended up going with 3 Newcastle defenders lol

    I panicked after Almiron was reported out and couldn't find a better solution in 5 minutes.

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years

      Haha good luck. I am backing against Newcastle CS got rid of Trippier on FH. At least one of us will be right!

      1. Pariße
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        One goal to wipe them all. Brennan Johnson is out and this really stuck with me.

        1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I thought of that but assumed Cooper playing mind games etc

    2. Pariße
      • 11 Years

      Oh I never knew Cash was 4.6, could've gotten him.

        Or Fofana - I have gone treble Chelsea defence- captain Chilwell- risk v reward like yourself
