      not b

  5. Biggsy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Last check, have I got these calls right?

    Play Mitoma, bench Maddi?

    Captain Watkins, VC Haaland?

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I’ve done same but C Haaland, VC Kane

    2. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yes Mitoma.

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

    3. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Maddison deserves one last game

    5. Ibralicious
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      C Haaland and everything else is right

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Henry, Estupinan or White

    1. AgentRed

      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yep

  10. andre_c

    Play one

    a) Felix
    b) Mitoma

    1. Miguel Sanchez

      A

  11. jpine
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I'd do the same.

      1. jpine
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Thanks!

  12. Kiyoshi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

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

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yep!

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

    2. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

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

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yes

    4. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      No gone for City

    5. Well you know, Triffic
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yes

  13. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

    2. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      The central defender and it's not even close

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

      A or C

  15. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Play 1

    A Estupinan
    B Botman ( double up with Trippier)

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

    3. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

  16. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months 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
        2 years, 12 months ago

        he's often lucky

        He's that kind of player

      2. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Any way of doing isak to haaland?

      1. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

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

        1. Sharkytect
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

    2. Malkmus
      • 14 Years

      B

    3. andre_c

      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

  18. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Who do I start? Already have Trippier

    A - Botman
    B - Estu

    1. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

    2. Reece’s Pieces
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

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

    3. marcos11
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

    4. AgentRed
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I’m playing Estu over Burn

  19. Malkmus
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Pick one to bench:

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

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

  21. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Final piece of the puzzle, start which one?

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

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

    2. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A

  22. Pall Mall
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      nah,

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

    2. ggfussball
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Who else have you got in mid

  23. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Benching Mitoma!

  25. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Gabriel better pick

  27. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Who to bench??

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

    1. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      D

    2. ggfussball
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B

      1. ggfussball
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        I meant C!

  28. SomeoneKnows
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B defo. Then probably A

  29. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months 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
    2 years, 12 months 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
      2 years, 12 months ago

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

      1. Victor6359
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        Cheers
