    Rashford > Martinelli for -4 worth it?

      Shaw

    5. LeytonOrient
      • 11 Years

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

    Sorry boring repost!
    Morning all... Just looking for a bit more advice on this. Im tempted with A but because I'm so far behind in my ML. Thanks and GL

    2FT 0.2ITB
    DeGea Raya
    Tripps TAA Estupinan Akanji Cresswell
    Salah Gakpo Rash MacA Andreas
    Haaland Solanke Isak

    A. Rash & Solanke to Mitoma & Wilson
    B. Andreas & Solanke to Ferguson/Enciso & Willock

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

      play Rashford

  5. Malinwa
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play Kepa or Steele?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Steele

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      S

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Steele as DGW - could be dropped but unsure
      & then at least Kepa as backup

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

    Rashford - Mac Allister probably worth a -4 if the alternative is Greenwood/Toti autosub? (I expect Estupinan to sub in for KDB.)

    Raya
    TAA Trippier Shaw
    Salah KDB* Mahrez Mitoma Rashford*
    Haaland Isak
    (Iversen, Estupinan, Greenwood, Toti)

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

      Probably but if it's say 1-1 at Goodison Park then Kev could be on for the final 30 mins.

      I'd be more keen on an Arsenal midfielder tho.

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

        Yeah I was also considering Martinelli. I do actually feel like the Everton game could be close if Kev doesn't start...

  7. M2.0
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    If you’re chasing and we hear that Isak is benched, captain:

    a) Isak
    b) Salah
    c) Trippier

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. West End Exile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

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

      In that scenario and chasing it'd have to be Wilson.

      1. M2.0
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I don’t own him unfortunately and already made my transfer

    4. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

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

      C

  8. mdm
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start one:

    A. Rashford
    B. Shaw
    C. Grealish

    1. LeytonOrient
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B most likely to start

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A B C is what I’m doing

  9. trafalgarlaw
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    1FT 0ITB

    Steele
    TAA Estupinan Trippier
    KDB Salah Martinelli Mitoma Rashford
    Haaland Isak

    Iversen Dalot Toti Greenwood

    Roll FT or sell Rashford to another newcastle?

    1. West End Exile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Roll

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

    ETH didn't rule out Rashford for this weekend. Just states he has a leg injury and a major doubt. I don't think it's enough info for me to sell when I have Shaw and Estupinan currently on the bench. There are 7 days between Wolves and Bournemouth to wait for more info.

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Def a hold if you have the bench

    2. One Bee's Saka
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Agree

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I have Murphy on my bench so I’d rather roll the transfer to next week in case I need to swap him out for the DGW.

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

      He said 'more than doubtful' which suggests that he hasn't given up hope

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

        I interpreted that the other way tbh... like more than just a little doubt, almost certainly out

  11. XX SMICER XX
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Which one is best?

    A. GW36 March to Mac, GW37 Mac/Mitoma to Bruno
    B. GW36 March to Bruno, GW37 Robertson to Stones

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

      A

      Pep could drop anyone

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

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

    2FTs
    Andreas + Jota > Willock + ????

    A) Enciso
    B) Ferguson
    C) save 1FT and play jota this week

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

    Play Martinelli (BHA) or Gakpo (lei)?

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

      Mart

  14. cruzex
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    If rashford is injured next week...it is time to buy foden...

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

      Question is, is next week Pep's time to bench Foden...

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

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

      I have Gundo and Grealish higher on my City midfielder list

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

    People think Dalot starts this GW? Didn't last week but unsure why?

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

      With Varane coming back it get more confusing

      I'd guess yes

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

      Who knows. Guardian team sheets starting XI differs from FFS. Chance Varane comes back in and Shaw reverts to LB

  16. kennethrhcp
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start 1

    Ederson
    Or
    DDG

    1. One Bee's Saka
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DDG

    2. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DDG

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

      Thanks. I had him in and just looked wrong and doubted it

    4. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      ETG to drop DDG?

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

        Surely won't get minutes if benched

    5. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Ddg

  17. HD7
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    G2G or start Grealish and Estupinan?

    Steele 

    Trippier Stones Shaw
    Salah Rashford* Martinelli Mitoma 
Wilson Haaland Isak

    Kepa Grealish Estupinan Henry

  18. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Yet again nonsensical price changes which have priced me out of moves. Firstly the other day despite already having low ownership and returning in his last 3 games including a goal and an assist in his last game, Maddison drops in value. And now Shaw. No double this week and only 1 return in 8 games but rose in value last night. Makes no sense. FPL seem to make the price changes up as they go along.

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

      Lol

    2. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      So the player you were selling gets sold by others

      The player you were buying gets bought by others

      Seems like you're following the crowd;)

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

        Nothing to do with folowing any crowds. Hardly anybody else has Maddison. Im making the point that the price change mechanics dont make any sense. Why would so many be bringing Shaw in this week over a double week player?

    3. Klip Klopp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You sound upset bro

  19. mcginnntonic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start 2:

    1) porro
    2) estu
    3) dalot

    1. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      1
      2

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      2 & 3

  20. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) play grealish or B) transfer in Trent & bench grealish ? Thanks

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      b

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks will do

  21. PScholes18
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Still haven't decided. Getting Wilson/Isak without a hit means selling Alvarez. All other moves require a hit. But guess I need one of them...

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

      Isak

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

      Not sure I would sell Alvarez if I had him

      1. PScholes18
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It's a tricky one. At the same time, I'm defending leads and guess most will have one of them.

        Other option is Ferguson + Rashie -> Wilson/Isak + McAllistar for a hit. Giving me a benching headache.

  22. TKC07
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Which combo is likely to score more points this GW?
    A) Mahrez + Martinelli
    B) Wilson + Eze -4
    C) Alvarez + Joelinton -4

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

  23. tryf88
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    March Watkins to Wilson Mitoma for free, or Swap Graelish for Mahrez for -4

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

      The former

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      March Watkins to Wilson Mitoma

  24. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Morning guys.
    Play Gakpo or Watson ??

  25. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Mahrez or Bruno F is a tough call, which you pick?

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      That's a tough call.....I would fancy Mahrez but it's a flip of a coin

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez

    3. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez easily for me based on Utd. form and twitchiness.

  26. FootballRookie
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start DDG or Steele?

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

      DDG. United tight at home

    2. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Ddg

    3. space mercenary
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Steele. DDG has been woeful. Steele plenty of save points at least.

  27. Taegugk Warrior
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    To play
    A. Botman (double with Trip)
    B. Jota
    C. Olise

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A but would look to accommodate Jota aswell

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

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

    Already did Watkins to Isak. 1ft left.

    Kepa
    TAA, Trippier, Shaw, Estupinan
    Bruno, Rashford, Mitoma
    Haaland, Isak, Jota

    Raya, Grealish, March, Henry

    A) Jota to Wilson
    B) Grealish to Mac10 (bench Jota or Shaw)
    C) save ft and do Jota to Greenwood and Grealish to KdB in GW36 for free. This also makes it possible to upgrade Henry to Stones in 37.

    Or any other advice?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Like C

  29. Lionac
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    How many points you expect from MacAlister this GW?

    Do you think he outscores Man City mid (Grealish/Mahrez) in GW37?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure. Tough fixtures on paper.

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

      Not expecting anything against that opposition - but they play good football and if they get something out of the games Mac A will have something to do with it

  30. XX SMICER XX
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    G2G? Anything worth a hit?

    Steele
    TAA Botman Shaw
    Salah Mahrez Bruno Rashford Mitoma
    Haaland Isak (c)

    Iverson Robertson Fofana Greenwood
