  1. 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 (Isaac? ) {in this option Watkins or Martinelli has to start}

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

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

        I'm just worried about Bruno minutes

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

      Like B as TAA one of the highest upside players this week. Also ditches Chillwell and Chelsea are in a downward spiral.

  2. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ederson* (Iversen)
    TAA* Estupi* Dalot* Tripp Zouma*
    Salah* Grealish* Rash* March* Andreas*
    Haaland* Jota* Solanke

    * - dgw players

    What would you do?

    a) BB
    b) TC Haaland (now that Jota doubt)

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

      Felt like Jota will get minutes and probably more likely in the Fulham game. Think this is going to be the better option to bench boost. Can triple in 37 with Haaland then.

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm TC'ing Salah

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

    Guys who to play ?

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

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

  4. Stimps
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    FH team thoughts??

    DDG
    TAA Robertson Dias
    Salah KDB Rashford Mitoma March
    Haaland Isak

    Fodder Faes fodder fodder

  5. ball c
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone tempted by Alvarez?

    Could bring him in for Watkins.

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

      Great punt

    2. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He won't start though. Not both.

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

      Why bring in a player you know probably starts on the bench. Stupid idea imo

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yet Jota, who might not even make the squad in either game, transfered in in droves.

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

          Well I got Jota before I knew he was injured . I was forced due to these silly price rises but I think I would have brought him in regardless. Just for the Fulham game if nothing else.

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

      Maybe next GW

  6. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Quick one

    A) Martial
    B) Alvarez

    1. ball c
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B
      Both will have limited minutes though

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. I know. Willing to gamble

  7. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play?

    A Steele
    B DDG

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DDG

  8. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Messed up my wild card the previous week, ahead of BB this week. Dicking around to see how I might upgrade one player, forgot to turn Akanji back to Stones and only have 1x Man U.

    Any of these worth doing?

    A. Botman > Dalot
    B. Martinelli > Antony
    C. Isak> Martial

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no

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

      Only A and that's marginal with the fixtures.

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. This was my thought too. Will want 3x NEW for GW36, although prefer to get Willock than a second NEW defender.

        Hard to free up midfield slots though with 2x Brighton, Salah, Rashford, Martinelli.

  9. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Already on -4. Worth taking another hit for Martinez -> DDG, or just play Raya?

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      only if playing BB

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no

  10. GoonerGirl
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Currently starting Watkins, would you do a -8 to transfer Watkins to Isak?

    1. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If a hit likely in the coming weeks for other transfers then would go for it.

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      nope

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

    Which for 1st sub?
    A. Trippier (SOU)
    B. Watkins (mun)

    1. Help Me!
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

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

      Trippier

  12. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    a) Jota
    b) Isak (-4pts)

    1. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. ILOVEBAPS

      A

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

    Should I get Salah or TAA
    Cant get both

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Salah as per previous page:)

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

        Thanks

    2. Mambino

      Yep

  15. Help Me!
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Henry to Akanji for -4? to start instead of Trippier this week

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

      No

      1. Help Me!
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        cheers

  16. Salarrivederci
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    GL all!

    BB active - let’s go!

    Ederson
    TAA - Stones - Shaw
    Salah - Rashford - Mac Allister - Mitoma - March
    Haaland (C) - Isak

    Alisson - Trippier - Watkins - Castagne

  17. artvandelay316
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Trippier to Stones for -4 and play instead of Estupinan? Feel like he could haul.

    1. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

  18. Orion
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play Coufal (cry, mci) or Odegaard (CHE) ?

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

      Ode

  19. Maeki2
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Trips to Akanji or shaw for -4?

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

      Nope. You’ll want him back in 36

    2. Help Me!
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

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

    Ederson's previous scores are depressing to look at

  21. Super John McGinn-
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anything worth a hit?

    Raya
    TAA, Estupinan, Tripper
    Salah, Rashford, Grealish, Mitoma, March
    Haaland, Watkins

    Kepa, Botman, Henry, Greenwood

    0 FT 2.2 ITB

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      looks set

  22. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Salah with two home games, against leaky defences, or haaland for the armband this week?

    Really can’t decide. My rivals I imagine are going to go haaland (I’m behind by 60 points in one league, and ahead by 20 in all my others)

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Haaland.

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm going salah because everyone will be on Haaland

    3. John Colby (C)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Gakpo?

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

    *REPOST*
    I've had a shocking season and Im so far back in my ML I've not got a hope at winning... so looking for a few punts... on BB as well...

    Current squad
    2FT 0.2ITB
    Raya DeGea
    TAA Zinc Mee Estupinan Tripps
    Salah Mart Rash Andreas MacA
    Haaland Solanke Watkins

    Watkins + Mart + Zinc + Mee to Alvarez + Gakpo + Akanji + Cresswell -8 Yay or nay? (Any other options very welcome)

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      probably better just leaving it

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Punts = Antony, Gakpo

  24. OffsidePenalty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Trippier, Henry or Watkins first on bench?

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Trippier

  25. pnitishmk
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno or Mitoma?

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mitoma. he is fire at home.

    2. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bruno

  26. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    On FH, stick or twist with Jota ?

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

      Twist & get robbo instead

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would get Mahrez and LUIS Diaz on FH

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

      Stick

  27. fantasist
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    How confident are we that Jota plays, given he missed training?

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

      Can't see him not involved at all during the DGW. 1 start 1 bench. Reduced mins in both?

    2. Conners
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      20 mins v Spurs, 70 v Fulham would be my guess.

  28. Nespinha
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    For -4, please help...

    A) Ake --- Dias/Akanji
    B) Gabriel --- DiasAkanji (if Ake recovers its a transfer I save)
    C) No hit

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      get rid of Ake, he's a problem solved. Not for another City defender though.

    2. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C from those options

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A, to Dalot.

  29. Indio
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anything worth using FT on below, or GTG?

    (Considering a sideways Mac > March, or maybe Raya > Flappy?)

    Raya
    Trent, Trips, Estupian
    Salah (V), Rash, Grealish, Mitoma, Mac
    Haaland (C), Isak
    (Kepa; Watkins, Botman, Henry)
    £0.1M itb

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mac could be back No.10 this week according to reports.

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      probably save transfer

  30. Kante Touch This
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Still have Bench Boost and have no idea when to use it. What do you guys think of this?

    Odegard + chillwell > gakpo + VVD (-8)

    My bench would then be:

    Raya, Gakpo, VVD, tarkowski

    1. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      don't bother and check fixtures for upcoming weeks where you can BB without a hit
