    Will Trippier be awarded assist?

      What? Botman got it right?

      That’s what she said?

      That's what I thought. She's still wearing a top 🙁

    Sell Toney ahead of Liverpool or keep? Pool are unable to keep a CS these days so tempted to keep.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      If the replacement has much more upside then maybe

        • 10 Years

        Slim pickings. Very slim. I mean it’s basically Wilson vs Arsenal or keep.

        1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Or Alvarez

          1. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            1 year, 1 month ago

            I am going Jota > Alvarez, maybe last min. I would keep Toney if I had him ...

  4. Andy_Social

    Put me under a transfer embargo. My last 2 have been Kane to Jota and Salah to De Bruyne 🙁

    1. Ten Hag of Bud
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Ouch!

      Silly me benched Kane but I'll not cry until Jesus blanks.

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Jota may still have 80-120 min potential mins ...

    3. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      What about a social media embargo?

    4. Crunchie

      ouch.

      Sold Salah on a dgw? That is clown behaviour

    Romero should have his World Cup medal taken away from him man, how did everyone let that happen

    Choice xG stats from today:

    Trippier / Botman / Schar / Burn:
    1.13 vs 1.19 vs 0.05 vs 0.4

    Watkins:
    0.00

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Burn 0.04*

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        And also it is xGI - sorry!

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Watkins having 0.00 xA seems weird. He made a nice cutback for the chance that ended with Lindelof clearing off the line. Maybe it didn't result in a shot directly but he had more than 0 threat.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Technically his 'Threat' index was 0 too 😛 But yes agree eye test shows things stats do not.

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Yeah I feel like xG and xA especially xA can be quite flawed.

          A very threatening run with a pass that gets misplayed to a defender generates 0 xA whereas if the pass ireaches the attacker the xA would be like 0.5 of smth.

          xG as well only takes into account efforts that make it on goal not near misses where a player just doesn't get on the end of a cross or a defender makes a crazy interception that prevents a tap-in.

          These kind of moments are hard to capture in data form.

  7. Well you know, Triffic

    Kane = Season keeper

    1. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      For sure, so glad i kept him. Was so close to selling him to Isak

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years

      Forward*

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Fortunate his Top 10k/100k EO dropped like a stone. He'll continue getting points!

    4. Qaiss
      • 8 Years

      Enjoy his last 4 and a half Spurs games in a Spurs shirt

  8. The Final Boss
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    It's good that pool concede as a robbo owner and not a trent owner, possibly 3 bonus points gone for taa if he don't do anything in the second half.. Honestly hard watch as non taa owner, should have gone for Alvarez taa for an extra hit

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Should have thrown hits in for Soucek and Lerma while you were at it

  9. SomeoneKnows
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Raya
    Trippier, Shaw, Estupinan
    Salah, Saka, Martinelli, Maddison
    Haaland, Watkins, Solanke

    (Kepa, Mitoma, Zinchenko, Botman)

    With 1FT + 1.2 itb what's my best move?

    A) Maddison > Rashford
    B) Maddison > Grealish
    C) Saka > Rashford
    D) Saka > Grealish
    E) Maddison + Saka > Rashford + Grealish (-4 hit)

    1. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      A or E

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 11 Years

      F) Roll

    3. It’s gonna Ben Mee

      A

    Chances of KDB & Jota no shows? I have juicy points on my bench

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Jota minimal
      KDB no idea

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      KDB - depends on what the fitness issue is
      Jota - 0% as he will play

  11. Hazz

    Liverpool also get to play Fulham this GW, and they've just lost Ream & Andreas to injury too. Ouch.

  12. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1 year, 1 month ago

    Whose FH team is leading for wasted bench points? My partner’s is 28: Pope, Solanke, Dunk, Wilson. The Foden /Grealish punt yet to fire and Trippier on pitch with a disappointing deuce.

    1. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Why have any value in your fh bench? 1 player maximum needed so you put all £ on the pitch

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Had enough to spare - no point in getting bad players for the sake of it

        1. Rojo's Modern Life
          • 13 Years

          Should've bought more premium

    Saka > Gakpo for -4 looking good right now

    1. Hazz

      Nice one

    2. The Ilfordian

      Too early. Think Arsenal will score a few against Chelsea (I did Martinelli to Gakpo for -4)

    Big shout out today to Bournemouth staying up after a 9-0 defeat, and everyone thinking you are down

    Same happened to Palace in Sept 89. Not only did we stay up but beat Liverpool 4-3 in the FA Cup Semi-Final

    Hats off.

    This is ridiculous, should be 4-3 Spurs

  22. La Roja

    Spurs hitting the posts for fun

  23. It’s gonna Ben Mee

    Man City has WHU, LEE, eve, CHE, bha and bre. Realistically only one team can cause an upset on their way to get another title. Brighton!

    Let that sink in. How the times have changed.

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      City even going for the title shows how times have changed.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      City will have the league won before Brighton game.

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Yeah Arsenal will slip up undoubtedly

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          A nervous win over Chelsea before dropping point to Newcastle and Brighton

    3. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Everton away sandwiched between both Madrid games could be tricky. But most likely not.

    4. PartyTime
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      You would be surprised. Pep’s aim is to make it to Istanbul. The CL more important than the league, rotation & all could affect City. Anything is possible in the PL.

    Happy with this as a Jota owner tbh. 30 mins in this game and then a probably start in the next one with Fulham's defensive injuries.

    1. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Same realistically we weren't expecting 2 starts anyway even if he was fully fit. More than enough time to inflict plenty of damage
