    I was criticised for keeping Salah on WC, but I really like the team overall anyway and don't see any major upgrade worth it. Any particular suggestion?

    Leno (Areola)
    Chilwell, Estupiñán, Udogie (Cash, Gusto)
    Salah, Saka, Maddison, Diaby, Mbeumo
    Haaaland, Jackson (Archer)

      Team looks really good. Not sure I'd go with Estupinan on the wildcard but he has some serious troll potential so I can understand not wanting to risk it.

      1. TheBiffas

        Crazy talk. Estu is essential

        1. il Brutto

          Perhaps. Brighton defence just a bit worrying and the fixtures look rough.

          Definitely not essential. Brightons defence has looked poor and kept no clean sheets in their good fixtures and their fixtures turn now, so I can't see any cleans for a while. Plus he will have to defend more against more difficult opposition.

          Absolutely not essential.

        Thank, you mate. With the other defenders I'll keep him. Cheers!

      That team is a GTG.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Much appreciated!

      I've got Foden instead of Mbuemo otherwise same midfield. Alvarez instead of Jackson also. And Saliba instead of Udogie but I'm tempted to transfer Udogie in this week.

      Looks great and I agree about Salah.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Very good to know, I appreciate it!

      Me likey! Pretty close to my current WC:

      Areola
      Chilwell Udogie Henry
      Sterling Salah Madders Saka Mbeumo
      (C)Haaland Wissa
      .
      Leno Gusto Cash Semenyo

      1.8m ITB, exact funds for Mbeumo to Bruno in GW5

      Prefer Sterling + Wissa to Jackson + Diaby for now. Maybe Antonio and Diaby will come in for Wissa and Sterling from GW8+

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Very encouraging. Many many thanks!

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Clarification: The GW5 Bruno move there is optional. I could easily keep Mbeumo until GW10 instead

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      It's good.

      I'd consider Awoniyi or Alvarez upfront as the second striker.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Very good suggestion. I appreciate it!

  2. Chris_l25
    • 7 Years

    From GW5 onwards....

    A: Watkins + Sterling
    B: Jackson + Diaby

    1. trafalgarlaw
      • 5 Years

      A

    2. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      A

    Hi guys

    Your ideas are welcome

    Areola / Vicario

    Cash / Udogie / Chillwell / Saliba / Estupinan

    Bowen/Saka/Sterling/Mbeumo/Diaby

    Antonio / Haaland / N. Jackson

    1Ft 3.4 Itb

    1. TheBiffas
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Definitely wouldn't pick Vicario. The rest is fine

    2. il Brutto
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Save the transfer for the international break.

    3. Stykes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Nice team. Save FT.

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      It's good.

      Roll and put your cash in a decent savings account, you'll need instant access though.

  4. GoonerSteve
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Any changes needed?

    Areola
    Chilwell, Estupinan, Saliba
    Salah, Saka, Maddison, Foden, Diaby
    Haaland (c), Alvarez

    (Onana, Gusto, Semenyo, Beyer)

    1ft. 0itb.

    Tempted to switch Saliba to Udogie. Also keen on Sterling but not sure who I'd lose to get him. Will probably roll the ft at this stage.

    1. TheBiffas
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Roll

      1. GoonerSteve
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Thanks bud, seems sensible to me also.

    2. Stykes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Easy roll IMO

      1. GoonerSteve
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        I think you're right

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Roll

      You're well set.

      Any view on below too?

  5. sirmorbach
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Bench Estu (NEW), Gusto (NFO) or Udogie (bur)?

    1. Stykes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I’d bench Gusto, since you have double CHE def and I can see them conceding...

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Makes sense! Thank you very much!

    2. TheBiffas
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Gusto

      1. sirmorbach
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Thank you!

  6. Stykes
    • 12 Years

    Is this WC team a step too far? Funds spread too evenly across the squad?
    Thinking is that Diaby / Bowen / Isak rotate based on fixtures or team issues.
    Worst case it takes 2FT to shift funds by downgrading Isak or Darwin.

    Leno - Areola
    Chilwell - Trippier - Gvardiol - Udogie - Pinnock
    Saka - Mbeumo - Diaby - Bowen - Maddison
    Darwin - Isak - Haaland

    This team makes me excited — but it’s pretty punty compared to my usual style.

    1. TheBiffas
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Horrible bench headache every week, but it's still good

    2. GoonerSteve
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I'd want Sterling in there somewhere

      1. GoonerSteve
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Maybe for Bowem although I can see the appeal.

      2. Stykes
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        0.1 short of Bowen -> Sterling 😥

        1. GoonerSteve
          • 15 Years
          1 year, 3 months ago

          Annoying! Maybe downgrade elsewhere to prioritise the best possible starting 11.

          1. Stykes
            • 12 Years
            1 year, 3 months ago

            Possible move would be (Pinnock > 4.0 & Diaby > Sterling), but it’s a tough one.

    3. sirmorbach
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      It's brilliant. Be prepared for blanks and bench players doing good though.

    4. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Looks like a nightmare trying to pick the starting 11 every week.

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      It's solid.

      Bowen some trickier fixtures and Henry over Pinnock for me.

  7. Ask Yourself
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    One week only before WC! On Sterling atm but who would you pick?

    A) Sterling (NFO)
    B) Maddison (bur)
    C) Bowen (lut)

    1. Stykes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I’d roll the Luton dice with Bowen if it’s only 1 week.
      But it’ll likely cost you 0.1.

    2. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Bowen

    3. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I'd still pick Sterling tbh

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Bowen for a one week punt.

      Gillingham scored twice yesterday against a decent strength Luton Town.

  8. Weak Become Heros
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Play Udogie over Estu this week?

    1. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Yeah I would.

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Udogie...

      Estupinan could get attacking points too.

  9. Khalico
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Deciding who to pick from of Foden or Diaz. Who's better pick overall and long term?

    1. I Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Foden

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Foden

  10. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    What would you do here?

    Martinez
    Gusto Henry Cash Estupinan
    Salah Saka Diaby Rashford Mbeumo
    Haaland

    Turner. Pedro Gabriel Simms

    1 FT, 0.9m itb.

    Would you start Estu or Pedro?

    Would you roll or do 1 or 2 transfers? If so, who?

    1. southernpacific
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Diaby > Sterling for me

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        I really like Diaby tho!

        Was going to start the season with him but went with Foden at Burnley in gw1, then switched to him.

        And Eze to Mbeumo was my other transfer so far.

        Rashford probably goes first to release cash to upgrade the second striker, but then that's hits territory.

  11. FantasyMug
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Pedro + Onana > Jackson + Areola worth a -8? Have Turner as other gk and currently starting Pedro

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Let's assume a bad scenario - Pedro benched, gets a cameo and Onana concedes 3.

      Leaves Jackson and Areola to need 10+ points to break even.

      You do the maths. That's a bad scenario. If Pedro scores and Onana keeps a cleanie with 6 saves you're looking at 24 points.

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Split it in to two weeks is the sensible way.

    3. Malkmus
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Not for me

  12. Malkmus
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    A'noon all. Who to bench?

    A - Gusto (have Chilwell)
    B - Bruno
    C - Estup
    D - Saliba

    Thinking C

    Ta!

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      D.

      1. Malkmus

  13. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    2ft, 0itb
    Onana/Turner
    Chilwell Estu Pinnock (Gabriel,Kabore)
    Saka, Foden, Bruno, Rash, Ode
    Haaland, Alvarez (Osula)

    A) Sterling in
    B) Madders in
    C) a+b

    If A or/and B who to move out
    1) Ode
    2) Rash
    3) else

    Additional possibility is Gabriel to Udogie, bench Pinnock (BOU) but I like Brentford's fixture.

    1. BobbyDoesNotLook

      Old article. Repost to new.

    2. Hueng-min Son of a
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I would just Ode to Sterling and have 2FT for after IB. Teams looking great.

    3. Hueng-min Son of a
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Maybe as you said Gabriel to Udogie but play over Estu?

  14. Stykes
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Who’s the best 4.0 defender?
    Al-Dakhil nailed for Burnley?

  15. bigben1183
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Team thoughts?

    Areola
    Chillwell, estupinian, udogie
    Salah, Saka, Maddison, foden, Mitoma
    Haaland, Jackson

    Turner, archer, gusto, kaboure

    Happy with the 11, debating a Mitoma swap

  16. GS456
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Other than Trippier, whose the most nailed newcastle defender?

    Burn?

  17. OverTinker
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Martinelli to Madison or Foden for a hit?? Yes or no?
