  1. JollyGoodYellows
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Gtg?

    Raya
    Trippier Robertson Estupinan
    Salah Rashford March Mitoma Grealish
    Haaland (c) Isak

    Kepa Zinchenko Botman Watkins

    1. FantasyClub
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Basically my team but I have Toney instead of Isak, Mac instead of March & Shaw instead of Tripps

      1. JollyGoodYellows
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        All fair punts. My one frustration is I couldn't go for Trent so had to make do with Robbo.

    2. FantasyClub
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I prefer March but wouldn’t make sense to go sideways and hopefully with Veltman back means Max back to 10 as predicted

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

    Currently -8 now, is it worth it to go -12 from Keppa to Ederson? or play Raya

    1. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Play Raya

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      play Raya

    3. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      No

    4. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      It may only be a net -2, as Ederson plays twice

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

        depends, if he gets CS two games in a row compare with a 2 points raya

        1. Paul Psychic Octopus
          • 15 Years
          2 years, 12 months ago

          I'm talking about the net points for taking a hit - not a prediction of what will happen.

  3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Who scores more in GW 34:

    A) Ensico
    B) Dias
    C) Alvarez

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      B.

  4. 17legend85
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Got 9 dgw players then Jesus and tripper. FT remaining. Is it worth taking one of these out for dgw player. I have 1.3m in the bank (own Trent)

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yes, and Jesus.
      Not sure who you could get though, without risk

  5. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    TC Haaland?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yes

    2. mad_beer ✅
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I did. GL!

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

      I would if I wasn't FH

    4. Vlad Tepes
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      cheers

    5. Chalobah's Witness
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      I'm sure if we do he will only play about 45 minutes

  6. it lies in the proles
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    TC Haaland or
    BB Iversen, Mings, Toti Solanke

    1. Orion
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      TC

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

      TC

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

      TC

      Or Iversen and Solanke more likely on a BB over the other 2.

      1. it lies in the proles
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        I could get coufal too

    4. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      TC

  7. Norco
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Any worth a -4?

    1. Robertson
    2. Dias
    3. No, play Trippier

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      3

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

        Thanks

    2. Chaldaea
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Dias feels like a ceiling of 6 points in the extra fixture so hard to justify. Robertson also a risk with Liverpool defence and Tsimikas.

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

        Thanks man, I'll just stick with Tripz. I had the similar thoughts so good to have some reassurance.

  8. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Jota to Nunez for free?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Nah

    2. Orion
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Just if you know that Jota won’t feature

    3. 003
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Doubt for doubt....

    4. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Frustrating, as I've had Jota before his recent hauls.
      OK, will stick. Following fixtures are good.

  9. _Greg
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Community average this week is gonna be -8 for first time in a while.

    1. 003
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Same here

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

      Did well with my own previous one: 149 - 8

    3. Norco
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Taking a hit last week brutally killed me

    4. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Yep, not taking a hit is my differential this week

  10. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    "I always start the attacker"...

    a) Tripps (SOU)
    b) Watkinms (mnu)

    Cheers

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Tripps for me but it's close.

    2. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Trip is very attacking though.. I’d go a

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Trips

    4. GC123
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      A) Trippier. 10+ points today because I sold him on a WC

    5. 003
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Trip

    6. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Cheers

      I have been planning to start Tripps so that is reassuring.

      *lumps a tenner on a Watkins brace*

    7. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Southampton surely cannot start two games in a row without a striker?

  11. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Not taking anything else into account. Would you rather KDB or Grealish on FH ? Is KDB definitely fit ?

    1. 003
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Kdb

    2. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Kdb

    3. GC123
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      The one who’s world class

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 12 months ago

        No - get KDB.

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

      KDB.

      Yes. No injuries other than Ake.

  12. 003
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Hi ppl

    Doubts about my last player: 1 coufal, 2 botman or 3 ferguson?

    Thanks!

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      2

    2. Chaldaea
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      2. Would worry about defenders playing City and Ferguson big minutes risk.

    3. 003
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Thx!

      Enciso

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

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

    1. Jordan.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      grealish

      BF

    3. Mr. O'Connell

      Bruno 100%

    4. Chaldaea
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Bruno has minutes and penalties. Was very close to a goal against Spurs.

    5. Steve Stiffler
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Grealish

    6. Bobby Crush

      2 years, 12 months ago

      Bruno

    7. RomeluAndJuliet

      2 years, 12 months ago

      I settled on Bruno

  21. DARE TO BISCAN
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Ahhhhh. Feels nice having my Trent comfy blanky.

    If you're making late transfers, don't forget to sort your starting XI out 😛

  22. Taegugk Warrior
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    March or Bruno…?
    Will double with Mitoma and Rashford.

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Bruno ofc

  23. Bobby Crush
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 months ago

    Would you bench boost this, or TC Haaland?

    Martinez, Watkins, Konate, Guehi

    A WC to see out the rest of the season….

    Ederson - Iverson
    A_A - Trippier - Estupinan - Dalot - Coufal
    Salah - De Bruyne - Rashford - Mitoma - March
    Haaland - Isak - Wilson

    I would have liked to fit in Jota, but finally went for KDB for Grealish.

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      Would not to the two Newc strikers.

      Also Dalot a bit of a risk, but no problem.

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

      Good luck

      Looks good

      Starting Isak or Wilson today? They interchange but could double up if chasing...

  26. The Mighty Hippo
    • 9 Years

    How many doublers do you have this week? I've got 9 plus Trippier and Isak.

    1. RomeluAndJuliet
      • 8 Years

      A

  30. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years

      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 months ago

      excited!
      Bruno is due
