      not b

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

    Last check, have I got these calls right?

    Play Mitoma, bench Maddi?

    Captain Watkins, VC Haaland?

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      I’ve done same but C Haaland, VC Kane

    2. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Yes Mitoma.

      Unsure on captain call myself. Guess it depends if leading or chasing...

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

      VC probably not relevant but you want a guaranteed back up which I’m not sure Haaland is

    4. Reece’s Pieces
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Maddison deserves one last game

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

      C Haaland and everything else is right

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

        yeah

        Unless you want to punt but as good as Watkins is he's a goal a game type of player.

        Could get a goal, an assist and max bonus...

  6. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Henry, Estupinan or White

      A

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

    Which 3 defenders from?

    Trippier, Schar, Gabriel, Estupinan, Mee

    Thinking of gambling on Trippier, Schar and Estupinan, but Brentford rarely blank at home

    1. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      I'd do the same.

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

        Thanks!

  12. Kiyoshi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    @ Maddison Owners, do you give him one more chance?

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Yep!

      If you've held him this long (like i have) then it's 1 last dance.

    2. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      I’m not. Took him out for a hit last night

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

      Yes

    4. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      No gone for City

    5. Well you know, Triffic
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Yes

  13. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    G2G?

    Kepa
    Estupinan, Burn, Young
    Salah, Rashford, Grealish, Mitoma
    Haaland (c), Kane, Watkins

    Steele, Odegaard, Henry, White

    Looking at the back line for main G2G questions but open to other thoughts... Henry home v NEW or Young home v NFO or Estupinan away v TOT?

  14. Khazana
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Pick one to bench:

    A) Maddison. (at home to Bournemouth, no form)
    B) Fernandes (at home to Everton, no form but maybe pushed up when Eriksen comes on)
    C) Isak (bre away, rotating with Wilson, but could start & haul)

    1. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      A

    2. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      The central defender and it's not even close

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

      A or C

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

    Play 1

    A Estupinan
    B Botman ( double up with Trippier)

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      A

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

      A

    3. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

  16. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    If I pull the trigger on Toney ➡ Haaland, I have to bench one of Martinelli, Mac Allister or Isak. And I really don't like that.

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      I mean Isak might not even play again and as woeful as West Ham were. Let’s be honest, he was lucky to get the goal he did and the BAPs that came with it

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

        he's often lucky

        He's that kind of player

      2. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 3 days ago

        Perhaps you're right. But I have a feeling that Howe will start both Wilson and Isak this weekend, and therefore expect Newcastle to score a few goals and Alex to get at least one attacking return.

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

      Any way of doing isak to haaland?

      1. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 3 days ago

        Of course. I'm just wary of Ivan's YC situation.

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

          Remember Costa doing this to us? If you have toney I wouldn't sell him now. Wait for the yellow card to force your hand

  17. Kiyoshi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    A: Saka + Toney -> Grealish + Haaland
    B: Maddison + Toney -> Grealish + Haaland
    C: Shaw + Toney -> Martinez + Haaland

    Would like to keep shaw somehow for potential dGW in 34

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

    2. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

    3. andre_c
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

  18. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Who do I start? Already have Trippier

    A - Botman
    B - Estu

    1. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

    2. Reece’s Pieces
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      I’m gambling on Estu so that’s my suggestion

    3. marcos11
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

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

      I’m playing Estu over Burn

  19. Malkmus
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Morning all. Gtg? 1ft, 0.4

    Raya
    Zinc - Trip- Henry
    Saka - Martinelli- Rash - Mitoma
    Watkins (c) - Haaland- Kane

    Subs - mads, estup, shaw

    Ta !

  20. outernational
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Pick one to bench:

    A: Mac Allister (Spurs away)
    B: Maddison (Bournemouth home)
    C: Saka (Liverpool away)

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      A

  21. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Final piece of the puzzle, start which one?

    A) Botman (bre)
    B) Henry (NEW)

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      A

    2. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      A

  22. Pall Mall
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Grealish for -4, then I have to bench Mitoma. What do you think, is it worth it?

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

      nah,

      There's a chance that Grealish has some rest too.

    2. ggfussball
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Who else have you got in mid

  23. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Maybe one secondary reason for getting Haaland back now is to start the build for DGW34. If free hitting in 32 then transfers will be at a premium before then

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

    What would you do here? 1FT & 3.3itb

    Kepa
    White Trips Pinnock
    Bruno Rashford Maddison Bowen
    Kane Toney Isak

    Stelle Mitoma Estupinan Henry

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      Benching Mitoma!

  25. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Would’ve been -8 to get Haaland so decided against?

    Benching headache but trying these,

    Kepa,
    Ake, Trippier, Chilwell,
    Rashford, Saka, Mitoma, Gealish C
    Watkins, Kane, Toney

    Raya, BrunoF, Purvis, Zinch,

    3.1

  26. fish&chips
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Henry (NEW) or Gabriel (liv) first defender on the bench?

    Expect both to concede do Gabriel for better goal threat?

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

      Gabriel better pick

  27. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Who to bench??

    A) Mitoma
    B) Isak
    C) Maddison
    D) Martinelli

    1. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      D

    2. ggfussball
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B

      1. ggfussball
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 days ago

        I meant C!

  28. SomeoneKnows
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Pick 2 to start:

    A) Zinchenko (LIV-A)
    B) Botman (BRE-A) *
    C) Estupiñán (TOT-A)

    * Already playing Trippier

    Cheers!

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 days ago

      B defo. Then probably A

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

    Can’t decide who to play between these two? Last chance Maddison or double Brighton with Mitoma?

    A) Maddison
    B) Mac Allister

  30. Victor6359
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 days ago

    Have a gut feeling re Salah this week. Captain him or differential enough this week just owning him?

    A: Captain
    B: Nope

    Cheers

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

      go for it... could be his kind of game and he's normally in form when fasting.

      1. Victor6359
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 days ago

        Cheers
