    I still have wildcard and bench boast so thinking of using both this week.

    This any good?

    Ederson (Steele)
    Estupinan, TAA, Trippier (White, Dalot)
    Rashford, March, Mitoma, Grealish, Gakpo
    Haaland, Wilson (Kane)

    1. capoultra
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      you can't use both in the same week?

      1. DARE TO BISCAN
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        How is this a question 😀

        1. capoultra
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          That fact they had been playing 8 years has me questioning everything I know

    2. Devos
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You can't use two chips in 1 gameweek.

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Oh dear

    4. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      8 years?

    5. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I may have some news for you

    6. ‘Tis the Season
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      After 8 years, seriously..

  2. pemell
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Current team:

    Alisson
    Estup Stones TAA Tripp
    Rash Bruno Salah KDB March
    Haaland

    Debating:

    A. Alisson and March
    B. DDG and Mitoma

    A or B??

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

      B

      1. pemell
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Alright, settled

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

    Foden and Mahrez points estimates?

  4. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    How many pts these 4 give me on BB?
    DeGea, Trippier Botman Solanke

    1. GC123
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Circa 22 which is decent

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      14

    3. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      My guess is 6+6+6+2 so 20

  5. Junks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is Alvarez worth a punt?

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

      Nope

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If on a FH yes, if not then no

  6. gellinmagellan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry I'm asking this question again but very confused!

    Steele (Pope)
    Trippier TAA Chilwell (Zinchenko Botman)
    Saka Grealish Mac Mitoma (Olise)
    Jota Haaland Watkins

    0 FT

    A) Olise + Chilwell > Rashford + Lindlelof for -8 (bench Watkins)
    C) Chilwell > Dias / Stones -4 (which one?)

    1. AgentFern
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      yep A

    3. gellinmagellan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks!

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ederson
    Shaw Estupinan TAA
    Salah Greaslish March Mitoma Rashford
    Haaland Martial

    Iverson Isak Trippier Botman

    A) Greaslish + Martial to Fernandes + Greenwood (-4) then play Isak
    B) Play Isak over Martial
    C) Stick and Roll

    1. Fintroy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B - martial max points will be 4 in two games- assuming he starts

  8. Nacka
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start 1)
    A) Martinelli
    B) Toney

      B

  9. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Would you do Raya to Ederson for a -4?

    Thanks

    1. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      2 mins later. Still no

    3. COLLIN QUANER
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      100% yes

  10. Ray Kinsella
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    DE GEA
    ESTUPINAN/TAA/ROBERTSON/WAN-BISSAKA
    MAHREZ/KDB/SALAH/MITOMA/RASHFORD
    HAALAND

    any good?

    1. AgentFern
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez xMin risk but could pay off. Just like my Martial punt above

    2. Steve Stiffler
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Very defensive strong not much up front

    3. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm worried about Mahrez but think they'll want to nail the league this DGW so Haaland will score then come off and Mahrez will clean up

  11. Steve Stiffler
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    On a WC, what is the story with Jota? Should I go him or Isak?

    1. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      i've bottled it on jota, had him in my free hit but it's too risky for me. darwin could get minutes, as could firmino

      1. Steve Stiffler
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah if there’s a doubt of minutes I wouldn’t want him at all. Any other options on the WC?

      2. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Firmino is injured. Tbh I think the Jota risk has been a bit overblown, Klopp did say he "should be alright". But still I guess the most likely is something like 30 + 70mins. Would go Isak if not Jota

        1. Steve Stiffler
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Haha and there is a possibility he won’t start with Wilson playing well recently. Bloody tough choice

          1. The Mentaculus
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I'd be very surprised if Wilson started twice in under 72hrs. But he probably will get another game somewhere down the line...

          2. Hairy Potter
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Can't see Isak not starting TBH. Looks very similar to how Howe managed minutes in DGW29 and GW30.

  12. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    One more poll. Play 1

    A) Ode (CHE)
    B) Watkins (mun)
    C) Pinnock (NFO)

    1. AgentFern
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Ode

  13. Tripleh123
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Chasing atm, who is a better differential? Leaning towards Mahrez for a punt.

    A. Mahrez
    B. Grealish

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez - higher ceiling if he gets the mins

  14. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is it just dumb to bench watkins?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. GC123
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No. Better at home and ETH will want a clean sheet after United threw away 2 points midweek

  15. BusbySwede
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A quick question, who to start/bench between Trippier/Isak?

    1. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Start Isak...higher ceiling atm

  16. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is Mac Allister a doubt?

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I haven’t seen anything.

      The only doubt regarding Max that I am aware of is whether he gets a brace or a hatrick

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Apparently embargoed quotes from De Zerbi

  17. Ruinenlust
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) Grealish

    Or

    B) KDB (-4)?

  18. LosSurenos
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is TAA essential? Currently on this with -4 and would have take another -8..

    Raya
    Stones Shaw Dunk
    Salah Grealish Rashford Mitoma March
    Haaland Isak

    Kepa Trippier Watkins Botman

    1. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not for - 12?

  19. Devos
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    a) play Coufal (cry, mci)
    b) play Isak (SOU)

  20. GC123
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed. Who as 1st sub please? Lindelof or Burn?

  21. DagheMunegu
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play
    A Andreas (city,pool)
    B Trippier
    C Do Watkins to Isak/Martial/Alvarez -4 and play

  22. ‘Tis the Season
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Written in the stars that Salah has a hatty and a brace this GW. Two home games against leaky defenses with Trent feeding him! Got to be Salah right ❓

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

      Go for it

  23. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    GTG? Or Isak in for Jota...?

    Ederson
    TAA, Shaw, Estupinan
    Grealish Salah (vc) March Mitoma Rash
    Haaland (TC) Jota*

    Subs Isak Trippier Neco*

  24. KaBoZ: Kids,don't Drin…
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) Saka, Kane, Martinelli ------> Salah, Bruno, Solanke (-4)
    B) Saka, Kane, Chillwell -------> Salah, Solanke(or another 6.7 fwd), TAA (-4)
    C) Saka, Kane ------> Salah, 8.6m fwd (who? Isaac? ) {in this option Watkins or Martinelli has to start}

  25. Super Silva
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Guys final FH team. What do you think?

    Ederson
    Trent Shaw Estupinian

  27. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years

    Hey would you do any of these?
    A- grealish+ Watkins to kdb + Alvarez/Martial (-8)
    B- grealish to Bruno (-4)
    C- Watkins to jota (-4)?
    D- B&C both
    E- no hits

  28. PL Ball
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Would you do Watkins ==> Jota?

  29. Ray Kinsella
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    is anyone looking at alvarez as a sub for haaland, ie have them BOTH?

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

      And start them both?

    2. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      yes start them both? could be good

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

        It's diluting the 11 if he's just coming off the bench.

        He could start v West Ham?

    3. Lord.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’ve done it

    4. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years

  30. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Do I do Bruno > Salah or ake > TAA
    Cant get both without a -8 & don't want -8
