    Who is better this GW.

    Shaw or Estupinan??

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Estupian

  4. Gunned Down
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    ode to march/mitoma or Fernandes?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Mitoma

    2. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Very close that. Bruno just

    3. JoeSoap
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Mitoma this week, maybe Bruno long-term

  5. Ady87
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Pick 1 forward and 2 mids please.

    A) Havertz (AVL/LIV misses 32)
    B) Darwin (cit/che plays 32)
    C) Toney (bha/mun plays 32)

    1) Bruno (new/BRE misses 32)
    2) Bowen (SOU/NEW plays 32)
    3) Barnes (cry/AVL plays 32, own Maddison)
    4) Mitoma (BRE/bou misses 32)

    Don’t have FH for 32. Using BB this week.

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A, 4

    2. Cojones of Destiny

      1 year, 2 months ago

      A14

  6. JoeSoap
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Any of the following worth a hit?

    A. Saka>Bruno (Toney>Haaland next week)
    B. Martinelli>Bruno (would mean a further -4 to get Haaland unless I swap for Kane & leave Toney for now)
    C. Save

    BB - Raya, Saka, Martinelli, Kane (rest of team play twice, hopefully)

  7. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    March or mac
    Ddg estu or steele shaw
    Barnes or madds

    1. Tsparkes10

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        This

      2. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Agree with TS

  8. The Red Devil
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best defender upto 4.7 for BB?
    Got Henry Chilwell tripper and botman currently
    Leaning towards dunk, better team defensively than West Ham?

  9. Fergymac
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Casual comment here but how can you see how many hits you’ve already taken for the current GW?

    1. Dazzler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Just go back to the transfers page

    2. Goodfeathers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      There’s a ‘ Transfers & Finance’ section towards the bottom on the ‘pick team’ page that tells you how many t’s you’ve made

    3. Fergymac
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Thanks!

  10. Gazzpfc
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Help please

    Martinelli and Zinchenko to Shaw and Macalister -8?

    Would give me 13 dgw for bench boost????

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Would lean towards no, but there are merits to it.

  11. Feed tha Sheep
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Repost
    Henry > Chilwell (-4)?

    A. Yes
    B. No

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No

  12. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    All indications that Haaland is out then? Did teamnewsandtix say if they might have any info this morning? (Not on Instagram so I can't check)

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      yeah

      He's been trailing it on Twitter and engaging with FFScout yesterday.

      So suspect they'll be a post around 10.50 am if there's solid news

      Or he could set hares running too... it does add an edge of jeopardy either way!

  13. goneill79
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Pick,Tark & Zinc to DDG,Shaw & Chil for -8?

    1. jaywills
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yes

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yes

  14. jaywills
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    A) Maddison
    B) Fernandes
    C) Both, (-Saka and -4 points)

    Thanks

    1. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A

  15. tryf88
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Whos better this gw, Bruno or MacAllister?

    1. tom2224
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Bruno

  16. M2.0
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Bench one (no bb left):

    a) Kane vs EVE (a)
    b) Maritnelli vs LEE (h)
    c) Toney vs BHA (a) + MNU (a)

    1. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Kane

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Dear that's tough, tempted to say A or B, probably down to whether you think Toney can avoid a yellow today or not

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        *A or C

        1. Independiente
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          A, horrible as it is

  17. Firmino
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who scores most?

    A) Henry
    B) Zinchenko
    C) Zouma -4
    D) Badiashile -4

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Worth a hit? On BB.

    Haaland+Henry+Zinc >> Isak+Chilwell+Shaw (-4)?

    Kepa
    Tripps, Schär, Estu
    Maddy, Saka, Rash, Mac A, Mitoma
    Kane, Toney
    (Raya, Haaland*, Henry, Zinc)

    1. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yeah

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Can do any of the moves without a hit also

  19. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    BB29. Ward --> Iversen (-4) and then G2G?

    Kepa
    Trippier -- Estupinán -- Chilwell
    Saka -- MacAllister -- Rashford -- Mitoma
    Watkins -- Toney -- Kane

    Ward -- Maddison -- Shaw -- White [0FT+ 5.2m ITB]

  20. Johnny too hotty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Fellow managers Roth no BB. Other tha. Hoping their benches don’t haul 30 points are you considering Bruno cap over rashford to try negate the inevitable loss?

  21. Tic Tacs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Already played my BB so trying to limit the damage this GW, taken a -4 to get to this team:

    Steele
    Shaw, Trippier, Chilwell
    Rashford (C), Saka, Mitoma, Bruno, March (vc)
    Kane, Watkins

    Raya, Gabriel, Toney, Mee

    Any changes to lineup or captain needed? I'm tempted by a last minute Bruno cap!

  22. School of Poch
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Has Ward lost his place at Leicester or do we expect him to play?

    1. Urban Cowboy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would right him off.

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      He's at least lost it for the next few games

    3. School of Poch
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Who is the best replacement here then? Baring in mind I want to keep funds for Kane to Haaland next week so would only look up to 4.8ITB and preferably less to account for price rises/falls. BB active.

      Raya Ward
      Chilwell Tripp Henry Estupinan Gabriel
      (c)Rashford (vc)Mitoma Saka Bruno Maddison
      Kane Watkins Toney

      1.1ITB

      I guess it has to be Kepa? Or Neto or Leno?

  23. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Bring in Bruno or Maddison?

    1. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      If FH32 then Bruno

      1. 003
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        This

        1. Garfield1001
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Why does this make such a difference?

      2. Garfield1001
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Why does this make such a difference?

    2. JollyGoodYellows
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Maddison, better fixtures

  24. Kantelele
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who gives more points this GW ?
    A) Shaw
    B) Emerson Palmieri + 4 points

    1. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Close but you want Shaw for the future

      1. Kantelele
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Yeah but Emerson will play in BGW32

    2. Independiente
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

    3. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Very close I'd say. Probably just stick with Emerson

  25. 17legend85
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Am I leaving myself open with only having 9dgws?

    Kepa
    Tripper-shaw-estu
    Rashford-salah-saka-Mitoma
    Kane-Toney-Haaland

    Bench
    Ward -tark-beuno-andreas

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      not really.
      They'll be some surprise benching etc this weekend and midweek probably.

  26. Pariße
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I would so love to sell Rashford. Newcastle and Brentford will be very difficult fixtures for them.

    1. 003
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Then do it!

  27. 003
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Curious for your thoughts on my pending decision:

    Option 1) Saka to Fernandes for free and play Fernandes, Kane on bench
    Option 2) No transfer and play Kane
    Option 3) No transfer and play Saka

    I accidently used my BB in GW1 (my mistake or system bug, we will never know :)), so that's not to be considered.

  28. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Bottomed:

    Anything worth a hit on my BB team?

    Pinnock to Shaw would make me 0.2 short of getting Haaland back for FT next week.

    DDG/Raya
    Chillwell, Estu, Pinnock, Schär, Trippier
    Mitoma, MacAllister, Rashford, Maddison, Saka*
    Toney, Watkins, Kane*

    1. 003
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would find an alternative for Pinnock

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Avl or other ManU def?

  29. Ser Davos
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Kane to Isak -4

    then

    Gabriel to Chilwell -4

    Cash for Haaland post 29

  30. Old Bull
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I’ve decided yesterday to stop pussyfooting about with this Haaland situation. I’ve been planning this BB and so he’s out for Watkins -4. This game is more fun when you take risks. He’ll be back in next GW for Toney if guaranteed fit.
