    Kepa, Raya
    Gabriel, Trippier, Chilwell, Botman, Estupinan
    March, Mac Allister, Saka, Odegaard, Rashford (c)
    Toney, Kane, Watkins

    Plan on BB with this.

    1 FT 5.9 ITB

    A) Gabriel and Odegaard to Shaw and Bruno -4
    B) Gabriel, Odegaard, Saka and Kane to Shaw, Bruno, Salah and Solanke -12 (allows Toney to Haaland next GW) This gives me 15 players on BB

    1. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      A

    2. Under my Cucurella

    1. tim
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I took a hit for Ward out, so if Gabriel starts might be worth doing that instead.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Why would Gabriel not start?

        1. tim
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          He will, my point was that if you use BB, why take out a player that plays when you have a player that for sure wont play.

          1. Under my Cucurella
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            Ward for sure won't play?

            1. tim
              • 16 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              He has been dropped

            2. AC/DC AFC
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 11 days ago

              yep

              lost his starting spot

    2. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I did B. Think it depends if you plan to FH 32 to get Arsenal players back in

      1. Under my Cucurella
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Yeah FH32 is in the plans

  3. Here we go McGinn
    • 3 Years

      B is VC

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years

      I'm going maddison

    6. The Mighty Hippo

    7. FPL_ UP_Down

    8. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      B

  5. The FPL Units
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Is Botman going to play?

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I think so. Eddie Howe said he should be fine?

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Great to hear!

  6. DycheDycheBaby
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Sell Odegaard for who?
    a) Maddison
    b) Bruno
    c) Salah

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      C and hope big match Salah arrives

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        I am tempted. But it means I cannot get Haaland next gameweek without a hit.

    2. timmypnz
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Tough, I'm stuck between a and b.
      Maddison best fixtures might clinch it

    3. Kantelele
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      A or B

  7. timmypnz
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Bb active
    Marti to maddi/Bruno for -4?

  8. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Worth selling one of Saka/Martineli for a hit?

    Kinda feel it may backfire…

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Not for me

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Been mostly thinking about Bruno but still not sure, getting another Brighton mid ain’t the best considering tough fixtures

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          I'd still have confidence in Brighton attacking players in those London matches.

  9. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Man City won their last 2 games by scores of 6-0 and 7-0.
    I Think they could easily get a few goals against Liverpool today, 4-1 would be my prediction.

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      It would be typical FPL for pool to win 2 nil

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Many people own salah so that would be ideal as you would expect him to be involved

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      That was with Haaland and Foden. Both out this game most likely

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I'd normally agree but especially if Haaland is out I can see this being a bit more cautious than the typical City v Liverpool game. Also the early KO which is still traditionally low-scoring

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Mahrez magic?

  10. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Kepa (ward)
    Saliba riper chilwel (henry tarko)
    Mitoma rash mahrez saka (ode)
    Toney kane watkins

    Which? (Still got all chips)

    A) saliba mahrez -4 to shaw march/mac/mads/barnes/bruno
    B) ward saliba mahrez ode -12 to stele/ddg shaw/estu march/mac. Bruno/mads/barnes, play BB
    C) WC this team

  11. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Haaland to Isak is madness for minus 12 right?

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Loooooollllll

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Hand off todger todger please.

      1. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Bodger? Or do you actually mean todger?

        1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          He means todger, it’s a long and heartbreaking tale.

          Essentially, the Scout admins de-todgered me

          1. The Knights Template
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            One of the saddest stories here.

          2. Biggsy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 11 days ago

            I thought it was a Bodger and Badger reference....

    3. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      It's only really a minus 10 when you think about it

    4. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      It's only -4. Youve taken the -8 so unless you are making 2 transfer to afford the downgrade then it's a single hit.

      But no, probably still not worth it unless you get a leak that Haaland isn't in the squad

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        That’s what I’m waiting for.

    5. ggfussball
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I’ll have some of what you’re smoking

  12. Lionac
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Henry to Chilweel for -4 and another -4 to remove him for TAA in GW34?

    Does Chilwell outscore Henry by 10 pts to make this transfer pay off?

  13. The Knights Template
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Henry or Botman?

    1. FPL_ UP_Down
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Botman

  14. JollyGoodYellows
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Anything worth a hit here? BB active

    Raya Kepa
    Trippier Zinchenko Botman Estupinan Chilwell
    Saka Maddison Rashford March Mitoma

    1. The Knights Template

      1. JollyGoodYellows

  15. Kantelele
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    WHU fans, will Emerson play ?

  16. el polako
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    An hour ago I've only considered bringing in Salah for a hit, now I'm contemplating captaining Egyptian.
    I better log off...

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      He's expensive but good at Anfield

  17. chrislt4
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Who scores more

    A) Saka - Leeds H, Liverpool A

    B Maddison -4 - Palace A, Villa H, Bournemouth H

    1. chrislt4
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Already on a -4 from Odegaard > Mcallister & Gabriel > Shaw

    2. The Knights Template

  18. PogChamp

    Super excited for the biggest gw of the season. Let’s go!!

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Am more excited for it to be over. Then the season can really begin.

      1. PogChamp
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Already played your bb? 🙂

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          I wish.

          But it's just no fun going into a gameweek when you're guaranteed a red arrow.

          Might get lucky if Andreas P can outscore Raya, Gabriel, Saka and Chilwell combined, though.

  19. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Which?

    a) ddg estu (or) steele shaw
    B) barnes (or) mads (or) bruno(have rash)

      Close. Havertz

  23. JoJoRed

  24. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Hmmmmmm Saka > Maddison -4?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      No

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      No

    3. chrislt4
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I’m considering it. For me it boils down to who scores more during the next 2 game weeks.

      A) Saka - Leeds H, Liverpool A

      B Maddison -4 - Palace A, Villa H, Bournemouth H

  25. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    2. Taegugk Warrior
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Same dilemma. i think chance Zinc cleansheet + bps higher than Henry

  26. ebb2sparky
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Who scores more
    A) Martinelli and Tarkowski
    B) Mac Allister and Shaw -8

  27. Feed tha Sheep
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Henry > Chilwell (-4)?

  28. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    If i have all.chips available whats best plan to use them until the end of the season

  29. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    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*

  30. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    If the city news is true salah c is very tempting right now

    1. chocolove

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
