    If you bench Watkins at home against Brighton you don’t deserve the points

    1. Goodfeathers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      2 of my rivals caught the dgw fever & ditched him for Morris! Love it!

    2. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      You dont bench 8.0 striker vs anyone

    3. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I expected him to come in for Botman. It’s just good management. Your post comes across a bit salty tbh

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      😆 Thanks captain hindsight

  2. Intinny
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Guy 10th in the world has Watkins 1st sub not coming on and Estupiñan 2nd sub coming on for Botman. Perfect example of how hard the game is to predict. For those whole sold Watkins this week or benched him, best to just laugh it off. Your time will come another week over the season

    1. JOELIO8701
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Not if you make decisions like benching Watkins v Brighton def

      1. Intinny
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I get what you are saying but I imagine the ones that did that may have had Diaby as well and wanted to fit Morris in as their second striker this week. Happens to us all even it looks ridiculous at the time (non Watkins owner fwiw)

    2. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Not sure it does. I have been waiting since GW 18 in 2011 for my time to come.

      1. Intinny
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Sorry buddy! Sanchez 4 goals against West Ham and captaining Morata hat trick away to Stoke are my best FF memories. Missed the Aguero mega haul though

    3. Bishopool
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      u dont bench Watkins if u have him, especially in home game against Brighton. Thats just clear mistake and nothing to do with luck.

  3. I am 42
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Finally figure out why am I not in the top 100k

    I never ever considered Watkins in my team

  4. Zalk
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    242% rank decrease...anyone beating that?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      How?

      1. Zalk
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        47k to 161k

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      2.42 of what rank?

    3. jacob1989
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Last gw I dropped from 194k to 961k. How much % is that? 500?

    4. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I dropped ca 100% each GW from GW1. Nightmare.

  5. Andy_Social
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I was considering getting Estu and Fergie in GWs10/11. Brighton play the top 2 next - will be interesting to see if they recover from this.

    1. F4L
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      gross is a big loss, but a result like this has been coming ever since they gave up on playing a CDM

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      To be fair there was a blatant foul in the buildup to one goal, pen they could have had, couple of the other villa goals element of fortune

      Not saying they played well or didn’t deserve to take a drubbing but wouldn’t worry long term about them

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      They recovered after West Ham and AEK. They should recover.

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      They have days like & bounce back. Remember losing 5-1 at home to Everton then beating Arsenal (A) 3-0?

  6. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Turns out Watkins is a differential for me!!
    No one else in my league has him.
    Might be the biggest differential ever for me

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Natuarlly

      Everyone has Haaland so that basically leaves one striker spot open because most are playing 3-5-2 and Alvarez was popular two weeks ago with Archer or Morris as fodder.

      1. g40steve
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Guy in my in ml playing 343 no Salah was 18k just added 31 points from 2 today unreal

  7. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I’ve just realised Bournemouth v Arsenal is a rematch of the thriller when Nelson scored a last gasp winner. The TV in the pub must’ve had a delay as people on this page were noting the goal before it appeared on the screen. At that time it seemed like Arsenal still had the edge on City

  8. Fat Frank
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Close between Cash and Luiz for 2nd BAP.

    Can smell a dodgy late adjustment later

    1. F4L
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      diaby to be awarded 2nd goal and push Cash out the bonus 😉

      1. Fat Frank
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        That would be a Cash assist then I think lol

  9. Podorsky
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Whats the latest on Maddison? Will he play or nay?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      He will play and score and assist

      1. Podorsky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I certainly hope so!

      2. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        and stay yellow flagged.

  10. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Aston Villa (1.96) 6-1 (1.86) Brighton

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Classic Brighton

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      xG is very helpful no one watching that game would say shouldve been a draw

      eye test > xG

  11. Differentiator

    Rashford owners NEXT INTO THE MUD

    Brace today I reckon

  12. Steve The Spud

    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone managed to build a decent wildcard with

    Haaland
    Salah
    Son
    Watkins

    If so I’d love to see it

    1. Slam
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Had this pencilled in but not sure on Estu anymore lol

      Areola Turner
      Estu Botman Cash Udogie 4.0
      Salah Son Maddison Diaby Gordon
      Haaland Watkins Archer

      1. Slam
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        No Bowen/JWP also an issue

      2. TheBiffas
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I'm going for this

    2. Fat Frank
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Have the first 3 with Alvarez and Morris

    3. They are eating the dogs
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Turner Areola
      Botman Trippier Cash Kabore Taylor
      Son Gordon Salah Bowen Nakamba
      Darwin Haaland Watkins

    4. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Why Botman on WC. He is injured.

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Huh? He’ll be back next GW

    5. Rock n Grohl
      • 15 Years

      Sanchez Turner
      Dias Estu Cash Andersen Botman

      Salah Son JWP Diaby Maddison

      Haaland Watkins Archer

  13. Free Hat
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A dull 0-0 draw for everton-luton would suit me nice.
    The things we look out for on a saturday...

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      With a keeper and two 4.0 defenders starting, I'd love it!

  14. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    So question of the week which we'll see again and again will be

    Morris to Watkins, Alvarez or Darwin

  15. faux_C
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Need both Botman and TAA to play to keep Estu on my bench. Not feeling positive about it tbh.

    1. TyroneGAA
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Botman is not in squad?

      1. faux_C
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        damn it

    2. Slam
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Botman’s out lad

    3. FPL Sanky
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah same for me...had Estu first on my bench but unfortunately Botman won't play today.... stupid of me to make an early transfer last week to get Botman instead of Chillwell

  16. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Should I consider Chilwell > Cash for GW8 or it has to be Ødegaard > Son for Luton?

    1. I am 42
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      75% doing Ødegaard > Son

    2. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd consider both for a hit

      Son is a C option

  17. They are eating the dogs
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Best 4.0m or less defender:
    A)Lamptey
    B)Taylor
    C)M.J.Andersen
    D)Al-Dakhil
    E)Bell

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I got Branthwaite yesterday as a makeweight to afford Trippier

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Our best defender.

  18. Fabreghastly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Brighton played with De Zero confidence

  19. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    That game justifies my decision to give up FPL. That would have ruined my weekend last season.

    1. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'm considering it myself

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      what brings you back to the forum?

      genuinely interested

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        The women

  20. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    No Watkins and Estu playing but still got 12 points off 3 to get the ball rolling...

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      8 off 1 here. I mean, that should be good, right?

  21. Vazza
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Best Botman replacement up to £4.6m?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Pau, Lindelof or Burn

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Cash

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Cash is 4.8m mate

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          oh, shows as 4.6m on my screen.

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Digne

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Moreno back soon though

  22. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bit worried as Saka seller I must admit

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      who did you switch him for?

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        WC’d so added Son/Bowen/Gordon/Salah and had Maddison

        1. I am 42
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          nice mid, you cant have all

          1. Royal5
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            Hopefully it will pay off. Made sense with Saka’s orange flag and City next. Can always get him back.

            1. AC/DC AFC
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Son is a great option too.

              He's playing in front of goal rather than on the wing.

              1. Royal5
                • 14 Years
                2 years, 2 months ago

                Yep!

  23. pundit of punts
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Botman being out makes Burn more nailed

    Can play both LB and CB (if Targett plays)

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Also weakens their defence substantially

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Botman is not out of favour

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        ❓ imjured

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          For long? Thought it was a minor

          1. Andy_Social
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            A month.
            Which could effectively be 3 games.

            1. Royal5
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Damn this was news to me. Need to sell then. At least I got Tripps.

          2. AC/DC AFC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            some say a month

            some said he was fine

            fog on the Tyne

            1. Royal5
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Was not aware. Crap if true.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            Seen someone on here earlier say it could be a month now. I thought he was gonna play this week so been left with Estup on -2 and Kabore. Yay.

            1. Royal5
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Tough luck mate. Udougie for me the. Not expecting much.

  24. They are eating the dogs
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    There is the Great Reset in FPL players price tommorow at 2 am. If you don't wildcard, you will probably own nothing and you will be happy.

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Guy in ml will have team value over 104 tonight, was 18k just added 31 points to that plays 343 no Salah.

  25. Firminooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Hahahaha. Time for WC?

    My defence next GW:
    Pickford
    Botman Estupinan Saliba Kabore Baldock

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah mate

  26. I am 42
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which match will have more goals?

    City or Arsenal?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      City

      1. I am 42
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        thanks

  27. Lollabear
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What is the biggest point haul by one player in fpl history, anyone know? My fpl season just got fcked by a rash WC that is now all but fcked.

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      You can turn things around. This is very early in the season. It’s just a minor setback. You’re bigger than this

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Rooney got 32 points in a DGW.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Probably Lampard in a single and Sanchez or Salah in a double.

    4. Traction Engine Foot
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Salah got 29 in a single GW against Watford

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        That was a glorious BGW. Very fun FH week. Snow Salah!

    5. F4L
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      in a SGW, i think Berba, Kun, Defoe have got 5 goals so thatd be at least 25 points

      mo got 4 goals and assist vs Watford, and KDB 4 goals last season vs Wolves away

      1. F4L
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        KDB was 2 seasons ago sorry

    6. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      What's the wildcard? My wildcard gw4 had a lot of fails too. Trippier big exception

  28. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Any Isak owners here? Finally a bit of fortune with Wilson missing out today so 90 minutes would be great in this game.

  29. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Absolute nightmare with Watkins plus no Botman Estupinian -2 ffs

    I give up already

    1. Mambino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      same here

    2. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      No, you have to keep fighting. We believe in you. There’s a lot of season to go and you are extremely capable of a comeback

      1. Gazzpfc
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Everyone but me got Watkins as well
