    WC active - Diaby or Mbeumo ?

      Diaby

    2. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      not much in it imo, flip a coin. You could consider bowen or jwp too.

    3. F4L
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I like Diaby but with Zaniolo/Rasmey/Bailey around I wonder how many minutes he'll lose now Villa have to go full strength in their European group

      1. Hint

        3 years, 1 month ago

        Prem still the main focus, I don't see his minutes being majorly affected.

    4. Camzy

      Bowen

    5. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bowen (if you can afford) for game week 7 then Diaby for game week 8.

    FPL legend at this point

    Am I the only one here without any Newcastle player this gw? RIP rank..down to 4m now

    1. Firminooooo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same.

      GW1 170k
      GW2 270k
      GW3. 470k
      GW4 810k
      GW5 1.9m
      GW6 2.5m

    2. Zalk
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Managed without this GW, but I'm getting at least one defender in now.

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Got the Botman on wildcard.

    4. Lollabear
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No ur not:p Im at about the same. Been unlucky and unskilled

    5. JBG
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same... was having a decent GW, that match ruined it completely

    6. Gubby-Allen
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I am 7.2 million although in fairness am not playing for points.

      I just pick two players that I want to do badly each GW and sign them and two players I want to do well each gw and make them 1st and 2nd sub.

      1. jacob1989

        What kind of nonsense game is that?

  4. BobbyDoesNotLook

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Before Newcastle game I was improving my rank by 40% and now the vice versa. Waiting for Chilwell to Botman move is lsp going to cost me today 0.2 if I don't do it today. Just the most killer ending to otherwise good gw.

    1. Zalk
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Was at 80% rank increase before, now 40%
      Time to get some NEW defenders in.

  5. Valar(Keith)
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Areola (Turner)
    Botman Estu Kabore (Udogie Baldock)
    Salah Saka Rashford Maddison Mbuemo
    Haaland Alvarez (Archer
    0.9 in the bank

    Which direction do I go in?

    A) Rashford to Son this week and Kabore to Burn next week for a better bench

    B) Rashford to Bowen/Diaby and Baldock to Trippier for -4 this week OR free next week.

    Cheers

    1. N00B
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe you can keep Rashford? Home game vs Palace without Lerma. Rashford vs Joel Ward.

      1. Valar(Keith)
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Tbh I haven't kneejerked all season and I'm growing a bit tired of holding rashford through thick and thin so far. Want to hop off and hop back on in a few weeks if he hits form again. Hence why I want to keep that 9.0 spot with son so I can always go back

        1. N00B
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Then A. You will want Son 100% in gw8 vs Luton.

          1. Valar(Keith)
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Cheers. Since im averse to hits and not a fan of spending on defense I may stick with A)

  6. SM001
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Mitoma's 1st goal looks like an OG or is it just me?

  7. N00B
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ederson
    Chilwell Schar Botman
    Son Saka Sterling Mbeumo Diaby
    Haaland Pedro

    Bench: Turner, Estupinan, Udogie, Jackson*

    What you will do here? Wildcard already used so I need to think long term.
    A) Ederson > Areola (vs Sheffield at home, City without Rodri, release the funds for Salah in gw9)
    B) Jackson > Morris, bench Pedro (dgw player, release the funds for Salah in gw9)

    1. waltzingmatildas
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

  8. F4L
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Gordan will be an interesting pick if Barnes is out for a while, no doubt a breakout season for him was coming at some point

    1. Ady87
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I agree, looked great every time he’s played and now also productive.

    2. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      yea he looks alright, close to entering my watch list, but mainly because there aren't many other Newcastle attackers we can really choose from due to nailedness.

      His goal today however is irrelevant, members of the crowd could have come on and scored.

      1. Toon lurk
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He could’ve had 3 today though

    3. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He had a good game but I wouldn't read too much into his points tally for this game week.They won't play teams of Sheffield Utd's calibre every game. Also, don't foget he only came on because after Barnes got injured.

  9. Ady87
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) Bowen
    B) JWP
    C) Mitoma
    D) Diaby
    E) Gordon

    1. waltzingmatildas
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Tough. I quite like B

    2. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      How many are you asking us to choose? Who are you planning to sell?

  10. invhinsical
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I brought in Neto this week and got his 9points. How good is he to keep long term? He seems to be going under the radar right now, but whatever Wolves do comes through him...

    Also, what are Benchwell's chances of starting games from now on, given Gusto's suspension and Chelsea losing yet another match to prove that whatever tf Poch is cooking up ain't working? Not that I want to keep any Chelsea player in my squad, but still?

    1. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I got Neto as well. I'm not really sure what my plan with him is yet, kind of wait and see. I'm benching him vs City for a defender with a good fixture (Saliba).

      However, he will be very useful if I want Salah, and I might want him for regular rotation with my defenders. So to sum up, he isn't going anywhere, but he may be on my bench every so often.

    2. Toon lurk
      3 years, 1 month ago

      What’s the reason for signing Neto? Am I missing something? One goal in 16 months isn’t it? Not trying to be rude btw, genuinely asking

      1. have you seen cyan
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I had Bowen and assumed he would miss todays game, Neto was the best in form replacement for this week IMO, and his price is handy. Regardless of goals, seen how many assists he has?

  11. waltzingmatildas

    Any suggestions here guys?

      Watkins > Hojlund
      Chilwell > Trippier

      1. waltzingmatildas
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Interesting, thanks!

  12. dycheball
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Defense is Botman, Gvardiol, Estupiñan, Gusto, Udogie. Midfield is Maddison, Rashford, Saka, Mitoma, Eze. £0.7M ITB, planning to WC next international break. Which option is best?

    (A) Eze > Diaby GW7, grin and bear it for GW8
    (B) Eze > Diaby GW7, Gusto > Tarkowski GW8 (I don't trust Everton, but...)
    (C) Eze > JWP GW7, Gusto > Cash GW8
    (D) Downgrade Rashford (for Bowen? Foden? Roll the transfer and downgrade for Neto GW8?) and pick whichever defender fits best by GW8

    1. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Eze > Bowen

      1. dycheball
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He's 7.1 so I'm 0.1 short of what I would need, my fault for going Pickford > Pope instead of Pickford > Leno

  13. Botman and Robben
    3 years, 1 month ago

    My first green arrow of the season, I am happy.

    1. have you seen cyan

      Good I'm glad!

    Onana
    Botman Kabore Gvardiol
    Rashford Bruno Saka Maddison Sterling
    Haaland Alvarez

    Turner - Estupinan Chilwell Mubama

    Thinking of WC in GW8, will Sterling > Bowen/JWP suffice for GW7?

  16. Firminooooo
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Just do it? Chilwell to Botman. Will be 0.2 swing tonight.

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

      No doubt

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I am. Ignore everyone who tries to put you off . It could backfire but it's rare in my experience

    3. Toon lurk
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Personally I’d rather have an extra few days of info than 0.2m, unless it blocks your other move.

    4. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes.

  17. DonaldDrapier
    3 years, 1 month ago

    How long will Reguillon keep his place?
    He is 4.4, I could change Chilwell and Estupinan for Reguillon and Trippier for -4

    1. The-Red-1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Until Shaw is back I'd imagine, so a while yet

    2. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Personally, I'd keep Estupinan. If you can't afford Chilwell > Trippier then I'd look at downgrading someone else to provide the funds. Who else do you have in your squad?

      1. DonaldDrapier
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Having Haaland and Salah I can't really get the money, I have been very cheap with my defenders.

        Estupinan seems to be in wildcard suggestions so yea, would be silly to sell him. I think I will just go from Chill to Burn (sic)

        Burn is maybe overlooked. I am interested in Cash as well but he plays Brighton next when I need a starter so not yet.

  18. Qaiss
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Still early days but I don’t know if it will be essential to own Salah come GW9. I can’t see many weeks where he’s the easy captain, yet the noise for weeks has been that he’s a must own

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Just because a player isn't "essential" doesn't mean that they're pointless to own. There are loads of players that aren't or weren't looked at very favourably here but are ticking along excellently for me for example (like Palace's Andersen). Don't mind the herd

      1. Qaiss
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I don’t follow the herd, I wildcarded in GW4 players like Son, Darwin, Diaby and Cash

        I’m just wondering whether Salah will be a MUST own. But with Haaland in the game (basically Messi), I’m not currently convinced

        1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Haaland effectively reduces every team to 10/14 players so I wouldn't even consider his significance in the equation. I've only captained him twice and have been burned on 3 of the other 4 times I didn't. I'm pretty fine taking the risk but the vast majority won't bother given what he's capable of and given most other players aren't returning anything significantly higher than what he's getting when he is outscored by players that are captain material.

  19. RICICLE
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What needs to change here guys? A 400k rank drop to like 700k now, abysmal

    Onana
    Botman - Chillwell - Estupinan
    Rashford - Odegaard - Mbuemo - Saka - Bruno
    Haaland - Alvarez
    _______________________________________

    1FT, 0.5 ITB

    A) Rashford > Son/Maddison
    B) Chillwell > VVD/Dias/Akanji
    C) Both A + B for a hit?
    D) Wildcard
    E) Roll or something other?

    Cheers gents.

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Need Salah, again he was unlucky not to get another haul today

      1. RICICLE
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I don’t want him until WC, or if wildcarding early I’ll have him

    2. All de Gea no iDier
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Freak gw. Who could predict 8 Newcastle goal scorers or Everton getting 3?

      Don't panic. Transfer Chilwell for an Arsenal defender and stick with the rest.

      1. RICICLE
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I know yeah, have had to watch rivals overtake me this GW after being top since the start, ah well, does tend to drive you into a bit of a panic I guess

        1. RICICLE
          3 years, 1 month ago

          The defender transfer makes sense if not him then it would be Rashford out

    3. Toon lurk
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Abysmal, would probably just delete my team

    4. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      As much as Rashford is stinking out my team, he is at home to Palace next, meanwhile Son is at home to Pool. So I don't recommend that move this week.

      Chilwell, you don't need to make that move yet as Cash can cover a no show.

      If I am honest however, I don't like that you have 4 heavy weight midfielders which are both double ups.

      1. RICICLE
        3 years, 1 month ago

        All good points there buddy, yeah really not liking my kids now, they’re going stale, Rashford I’d easily move along, unsure wether to just roll or transfer him out

        1. have you seen cyan
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yea it is a tough situation, as you have two Man U maybe you should take Rashford out. Its just that Pool fixture putting me off Son. But Spurs are at home, and Son can score vs anyone.

          Place aren't exactly whipping boys either - probably will be a very tough game for Man U.

          Sorry not much help lol

          1. RICICLE
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Haha it’s fine buddy, I’ll probs just take the chance and shove Son in there ya know, sick and tired of Rashford now

            1. Josh.E
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Wouldn’t get rid of Rashford he’s becoming a differential

              1. RICICLE
                3 years, 1 month ago

                I know, it’s infuriating haha!

          Mids*

  20. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best mid up to 6.1?

    So annoying to be 0.1 off JWP

    1. N00B
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Gordon if Barnes will be out

      1. Total Foot 5
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Gord is nailed imo

        1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
          3 years, 1 month ago

          He was benched today lol

          1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Barnes injured now helps I guess

    2. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Neto is nice but a hard fixture next. Doucoure has 2 nice fixs next.
      Gordon maybe.

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        3 years, 1 month ago

        These are 3 I’m mulling over

    3. Total Foot 5
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Neto

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks shame about next fixture though

  21. N00B
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is the absence of Gusto and Jackson good for Chilwell and Sterling?

    Maybe we will see:
    > Disasi RB - Silva - Colwill - Chilwell
    > Sterling striker or still RW but now with a good striker alongside him (Broja)

  22. Atimis
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Preferred def picks?
    Double on Newcastle, Cash, City one or punt on a DGWer?

    1. Yes Ndidi
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Burnley & Luton could have a quadruple game week and I still wouldn't touch one of their defenders with a barge pole.

      Cash & double NEW looks good.

  23. Total Foot 5
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Wc q
    Would anyone or is anyone thinking of wcing for double new dfence, and 1 of son/maddison given fixtures/form?

  24. drughi
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Did chilwell and son > trippier and bruno for a hit this week, dont know how to feel really

    1. Nomar
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Why sell Son?

  25. Danstoke82
    3 years, 1 month ago

    These moves 2FT yay or nay?

    Chilwell + Mbuemo > Digne + JWP

    Bringing in these two will allow me to do Rash > Salah in the next few weeks, hence Digne.

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

    Does anyone think that Newcastle can turn around their leaky defense and stuttering attack anytime soon?

    1. Firminooooo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No way. Keep away like me. I have Kabore, Baldock and Chilwell doing the job.

  27. drughi
    3 years, 1 month ago

    JWP on pk's for west ham ?

  28. Lucky Z
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Chilwell + Sterling => Trippier + JWP -4?

    Or bench both, lose value and play Saliba and Mbeumo? Can afford just Trippier move.

  29. Yes Ndidi
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Alisson Areola
    Schar Chilwell Udogie Estupinan Gusto
    Saka Son Maddison Mbeumo Rashford
    Haaland Alvarez Archer

    2FT, 0.3ITB
    Thinking I might do Alisson & Chilly > Leno & Tripp, unless anyone has any better options. Would quite like a route to Mo by 9, but I can't see it.

    Rash is probably in the last chance saloon, but I can't ditch him before home games against Palace & Brentford
    Gusto can wait a week to become Beyer or Lamptey and sit 3rd bench forever.

  30. Vazza
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best option

    A. Burn
    B. Botman
    C. Cash

    1. FPLCEO
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Botman. Best value.

    2. Danstoke82
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B
