          Happy for Botman to come in

      2. DARE TO BISCAN
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        I heard about them. Didn't fancy another hit. He could do well as a sub

      Was tempted by Jota but had to go for Kane considering the situation in that game

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

  4. Urban Cowboy.
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    With all the leaks flying about today it feels like an episode of golden balls. Did we get the split or steal ball.

  5. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Done Mac to Rodrigo for a hit, doesn’t sound sensible tbh

    1. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Will look genius, if it comes off

  6. Berkshire Hafaway-Line

      1. WATERMELONS
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Haha cheers for the positive vibes. Gives me a target that

      2. WATERMELONS
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 days ago

    1. Drogba Legend
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

  9. HD7
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Any news about Wilson and Isak?

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Still none as yet

    2. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      They love each other.

    3. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Either way Wilson mega dangerous off bench

    4. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      They play for a castle. A New castle

  10. Drogba Legend
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Setting your team on the final GW is always bloody chaos lol

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Good fun

      1. Drogba Legend
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Always. Thats why we play. So if our one hit on the final GW pays off the happiness we get today pays for the entire season because we feel like a genius haha

  11. xuwei
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Having Haaland sellers regret. I have 5point lead and should have held him defensively.

  12. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Same.

    4. Drogba Legend

      3 years, 5 days ago

      Rash

    5. Sailboats
      • 10 Years

      1. DandyDon
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Nice!

      2. Sharkytect
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Wish I could have got him without taking a hit

    10. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Had to go Kane once I had the opportunity to bring him in. Only one with somthing to play for, could be his final game, Leeds have to attack and are dreadful defensively anyway…no other argument really!

    11. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Kane

    12. Fintroy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Hall - went for the 3 garenteed bps

  13. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    No hits 😛 red arrow incoming, just got back home 3:03PM. Can't be sure of my final line up, just did Haaland > Kane [C] a couple of hours ago! GL!

    1. Drogba Legend
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      100pter incoming, not hits here as well. Didn't want to put myself through the headache of guessing lineups so just wanted to play her as is.

  14. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    I thought having a Free Hit for GW38 would be fun...it was stressful 😀

    Need the summer to recover...

    1. xuwei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Ditto but - my rival has like 6 bench players so I’ll take this stress over no team.

  15. Mini League Fatigue
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    When will we know EO?

  16. Hits from the Bong
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Any Salka news yet? I’m having buyer’s remorse

  17. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Don’t really get why there would be so many more leaks on final day when still stuff to play for for a number of teams. Seems very unprofessional if so!
    Can’t believe I transferred out Haaland for a -4 so hope they are right!

  18. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Leaked Lineups

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Ramsdale starts
      Gabriel starts
      Saka starts
      Trossard starts
      Xhaka starts
      Øde starts
      Jesus starts

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        There's gonna be a bloody Trollard hattrick isn't there!

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Now i feel bad for not punting on an Ars player

      1. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        So did I until I remembered their form

        1. lilmessipran
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 days ago

          Fair enough

      2. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        other leaks have Saka benched

  19. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Poorest season for me ever since I started playing. At 350k with a -4. Let's see if I can Crack top 300k. Ignoring Watkins, and the Martinelli-Nketiah Hockey Cockey ruined my season. I perfectly managed to time all the Nketiah blanks and all the Martinelli blanks. Gor rid of Odergaard only for the lad to go on fire and score like 6 goals and a bunch of assists in the next 5 or so games. That's a 100 point swing right there.

    1. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Sounds similar to me although dgw pushed me up 100k a few weeks ago. Managed to bench Odegard for his hauls recently and think I did same as you earlier in season with nketiah. My lowest finish was last year 240k and I’m 220k at the minute. Definitely game has got harder or I’ve run out of luck last few years!

    2. threeputt
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      think I can beat that over 2 weeks, Isak instead of Wilson - I'm sure many will concur

  20. Gegenpress
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Hope Mitoma and Isak Start!!!

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Hopefully all my players start.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Dream scenario is that both do not, which is why they both will

  21. Colm84
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Went with FH punt

    Ramsdale

    TAA, Mee, Mina,

    Maddi, Salah, Odegaard, Rodrigo, Son,

    Watkins, Kane(C)

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      looks good

    2. xuwei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Mee is an interesting choice.

  22. Mini League Fatigue
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    I was done by 235 but did FPL have any issues ? Looked ok to me up to deadline ?

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Yeah I made late changes

  23. Gazwaz80
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    May as well captain Kane considering I bought him in for a minus 4 😀

    1. Mini League Fatigue
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Lol me too! Did the same

  24. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    My (c) was Salah confirmed, but then I changed it, but the deadline passed before clicking confirm… will it still be on Salah?

    1. xuwei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Yes

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Yes, unless you got the timing wrong.

    3. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Yes

  25. Geriatric Unathletic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Should be, yes

  26. romperstomper
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    I'm *just* outside the top mil after joining in gameweek 3. All season top mil has been my goal and I can just about taste it now. Makes for an exciting last day!

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Wow that’s impressive. Good luck

  27. JabbaWookiee
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Captained Salah over Kane and already regretting it

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Big Sam defensive masterclass please.

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      You'd have regretted the reverse. Is what it is, now

      1. JabbaWookiee
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Also Leeds with everything to play for, Saints nothing. But since when did logic ever apply in this game?

        1. DARE TO BISCAN
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 days ago

          Pool on the beach, Saints unshackled playing for pride. Anything possible

    3. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      I am worried Spurs will think no European football is better or somthing rubbish like that. I’d hate to be a Spurs fan some of the performances they put in HOWEVER there is no real argument on paper to not captain Kane today. Hope I’m proved right! Think he has a great final day record as well

      1. JabbaWookiee
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Christ I hope not

  28. Assisting the assister
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Season learnings. I’ll start. Don’t pick Neto GW1

    1. TKC07
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Be prepared for disappointments..

    2. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Don't bet against Haaland captain when he fancies scoring a hat-trick

      1. xuwei
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        I think I did this twice!

    3. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Probably put Weghorst in that category too

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Or Grealish.

    5. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Ederson continues to be a poor keeper choice

    6. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Don't pick Digne

    7. Denis Tueart on the wing
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Don't have a good bench, it makes you cry!

  29. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Hopefully someone is ready to post teams? Guaranteed scenes x million!

  30. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 days ago

    Andy says Mitoma is benched and Estupian is benched

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Mac starts

      1. DARE TO BISCAN
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 days ago

        Sounds right. I transferred out Mac and kept Mitoma.

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Watkins to have a field day

    3. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 days ago

      Ferk earlier Pervis was playing
