    Ward to Iversen for -4? That gives me the extra 0,1 to get haaland next gw unless his value does not drop

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

      Yes, I did that move myself for -4

    2. artvandelay316
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Yes

    3. Vlad Tepes
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Will use BB to and not that interested to buy a expensive 2nd gk + if i do that I can not get Haaland in

    4. Vlad Tepes
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Ok but are we sure ward lost his place? Imagine if Ward starts one game..

        "With Ward’s club form called into question and City dropping down the table towards relegation, Brendan Rodgers brought in Daniel Iversen against Brentford last time out. The Dane has been guaranteed a run of games and is set to start at Crystal Palace on Saturday (3pm)."

  2. FootballDog

    Captain pick 1
    A. Rashy
    B. Mitoma
    C. March

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

      A

    2. artvandelay316
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Mitoma

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

      A

  3. artvandelay316
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Currently team is:

    Raya, Navas
    Trippier, Shaw, Chilwell, Estupinan, Henry
    Rashford, March, Mitoma (C), Martinelli, Saka
    Kane, Toney, Watkins

    Should I...
    A) Saka to Bruno -8
    B) Martinelli to Maddison -8
    C) Stick on current squad.

    Cheers.

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

      I think Fernandes might be worth getting this week but it's hard getting rid of Saka! Think I would lean towards getting Fernandes though.

      1. artvandelay316
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Cheers. Yes it's hard losing Saka! Although ML rival doesn't have him, but does have Martinelli, so it could be safer to lose Saka from that perspective.

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

    Shaw or Chilwell? (I'm using BB this week, FH32)

    Currently leaning towards Shaw on the basis that he has one more DGW to come and is a bit more nailed than Chilwell, who could be rotated in future weeks around the Champions League matches. But Chilwell would be more exciting this week...

    1. artvandelay316
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Both IMO.

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

        I have thought about this but would cost -8...

        1. artvandelay316
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Shaw if only one is possible. You have a similar dilemma to me in terms of whether to go to a -8!

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

            Cheers! Let's see where we land by 11.

    2. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Shaw imo. United are better than Chelsea

  5. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Is Henry >> Shaw worth -4?

    1. artvandelay316
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Yes if no other single week players can be converted to offer better options.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Looking at this… Haaland+Henry+Zinc >> Isak+Chilwell+Shaw (-4)? Could just do Zinc to Shaw and leave Chil though

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

        1. artvandelay316
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 11 days ago

          Yes, go for it!

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

      Yes I would

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        Looking at this mate, could just do two moves though. Reckon… Haaland+Henry+Zinc >> Isak+Chilwell+Shaw (-4)?

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

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

      finally you've boiled it down gaffer!

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        It’s all close 🙂 which means I’ll likely mess up this season!

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

    On BB looking to replace Ward for a hit, as he's lost his place. Want to keep funds for Kane to Haaland next week so my options are

    A: Kepa
    B: Neto
    C: Leno
    D: Areola
    E: Steele
    F: Forster

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

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

      Or swap for Iversen

    2. Vlad Tepes
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I would go Steele as I dont like to invest value in 2nd GK.

      1. Vlad Tepes
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        But then you cant get march or Mac for GW34

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

          Steele had seemed a good option but this is a good point!

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

      just get Kepa but then you'll need to lose or hold a keeper

    4. Dollyems15
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Steele and raya dovetail well until end of season so go steele

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

        Blocks third transfer spot for GW34 though to bring in the likes of March/Mac

  7. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Salah or Madison
    Haaland or Havertz?

    At the moment on the first in each set

  8. Skengzema
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Best differential captain? Mines was Madders till I realised Palace have only 2 L’s at home 2023 (city+spurs) + new manager bounce

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      he can still score

  9. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Haaland to Isak and Odegaard to Bruno (-4)

    Yay / nay?

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

      Do it

  10. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Currently touching cloth.

    G2G?

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      silk or sack?

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

        Both

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

      Hessian?

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

        Yes

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

    Mee —> Shaw worth a -4:

    Yay or nay?

    Cheers!

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

      Yes I think so (probably my transfer in a few minutes' time!)

  12. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Really can't decide on this.

    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. Darth_Newdar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      A in my opinion

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

    Who scores more x

    A) Saka (LEE, liv, whu, mci)
    B) Maddison (cry, AVL, BOU, mci, lee) -4

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

      B

  14. MGD
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    DDG
    Batman - Trippier - Chilwell
    Fernandes - Rashford - March - Mitoma - MacAllister (C)
    Watkins - Toney

    Raya - Henry - Kane* - Zinchenko*

    G2G?

  15. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Rashford or Maddison captain?

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

      Mad

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

        ... to be rash.

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      If superstar Maddy turns up & some of the muppets around him actually kick the ball rather than trip over it him.

      But Rashford is ticking over nicely against all comers

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

      Mad

  16. FantasyHero
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Which one to bench:
    1. Estupinan
    2. Trippier
    3. Watkins

    Right now benching estupinan out of the 3.

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

      Wrong

  17. SH
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Just did Martenelli to Benrahma in stead of getting McAllister or March - already regretting

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      17.28% it works out for you.

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

        I will take that! Will play him till 31 so it's a huge ask to outscore Martenelli till then.

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

    Captain :
    A) Rashford
    B) Bowen
    C) Maddison
    D) Mitoma

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

      I’m on C currently

  19. CheesyZoot
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Saka to Bruno for -4?

    Last question

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

      Nope

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

      No

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

      Long term maybe ok.. but also subject to if you going to FH in 32 and cap Saka then ok… will pay off

  20. Dollyems15
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Ricardo or Castagne? I notice Krisiansen been training all week

  21. Mike82
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Gtg? Am on BB

    Raya
    Chilwell Shaw Estupinan Trips
    Mitoma Bruno Rash (C)
    Kane Mbuemo Watkins
    Pickford Ode Saka White

    Do I do Kane to Havertz -4 or Pickford to Iversen -4 or odegaard to March -4?

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      G2g

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

      March

  22. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Anyone concerned about Estupinan minutes?

    Should I just bring him back or go for Dunk?

    1. MIGHTY JOE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Not that concerned after the press conference

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

        Thanks

  23. Scotty Dog
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    No love for isak captain this week. In form against a tired man utd side then a tasty fixture away to the hammers.

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

      No need to come here to talk yourself into it.

    2. Scotty Dog
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Very true

  24. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    Toney(C)?
    Could be a useful differential...so long as he doesn't get booked in the first game.

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

      Not for me

    2. MIGHTY JOE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      Way to risky?

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

      Definitely not! Even thinking of shipping him for Isak.

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

      he's got a decent enough scoring record against the big clubs too.

      As long as he doesn't go Mitro!

      1. PlayPercentage
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        60 points behind my mini league leader. I think this week it may be worth going off-template.

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

      Nope

  25. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 11 days ago

    So as someone who’s chasing in my ML, would you captain:

    A) Rashford
    B) MacAl
    C) Maddison

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

      B

      1. MIGHTY JOE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

    2. g40steve

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

    3. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years

      If you keep chasing you can climb the ranks of The Hall of Shame

  26. bruuuno
    • 7 Years

    2. Dollyems15
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 days ago

      I'm thinking the same don't know who to bring in as Krisiansen back in training

      1. bruuuno
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 11 days ago

        On LEI forum they want Ricardo and Kristiansen to start. Im going for Ricardo

  27. g40steve
    • 8 Years
