    Hi all. Had to ditch Udogie. Any hit needed here?

    Areola
    Trippier, Cash, Mitchell
    Salah, Son, Bowen, Maddison, Douglas Luiz
    Haaaland, Álvarez

    Leno, Archer, Branthwaite, Taylor

    Thanks!

    1. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      No

    2. ebb2sparky
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      You didn't have to ditch udogie but no I wouldn't take a hit unless maddison is ruled out for a while

    Hi everyone, I have 2 FT and 0.1 in the bank. Any changes needed please? Don't really want to burn a transfer.

    Areola
    
Trips Gabriel Tsimikas

    Palmer Bowen Son Salah

    Haaland (C) Watkins Alvarez



    Turner Braithwaite Taylor Nakamba

    1. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Alvarez out maybe

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Why ?

    2. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Taylor to Lascelles if Botman needs surgery. Good GW18 fixture

  3. niaz1982
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Best option with 2 FT & £0.2m ITB?

    Johnstone
    Cash Trippier Andersen
    Mitoma Maddison* Son Diaby
    Haaland Watkins Alvarez

    Subs: Areola, Taylor, Andersen, Diaz.

    A. Diaz & Maddison > Gordon & Eze leaves £3.8m to swap Son to Salah if need arises.
    B. Maddison & Alverez > Jensen & Ferguson leaves £3.6m to swap Son to Salah as above.
    C. Something else.
    D. Leave lineup this week.

    1. niaz1982
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Diaz would be first sub subject to news on maddison starting.

    2. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      B but with Palmer if possible

  4. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    A) Botman to Estu (or start Kabore)
    B) JWP to Bowen/Mitoma
    C) Both for -4?

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      A

  5. R.C
    • 6 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Who to play??

    1. Dalot v LUT (H)
    2. Maguire v LUT (H)

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Dalot

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Toss a coin

    3. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Dalot 100%

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      2. Guaranteed a start. Attacking threat has looked good recently too. Had a disallowed goal against Copenhagen, and also hit the bar from outside the box.

      Dalot probably will start, but there's doubt there after a few dodgy performances. He has Regullion and Lindelof as competition at LB.

    5. Merlin the Wraith
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Wouldn't touch either with a toilet brush. I fancy Luton to do a Brinks-Mat on them barring the inevitable O/T injury time penalty award

  6. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Hi. Is this good to go?

    Areola
    Potro Cash Gabriel
    Salah Son Saka Luiz
    Haaland Watkins Alvarez

    Strakosha Castagne Taylor Anderson

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Del Potro is would be a brilliant centre back

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Brilliant from all set pieces, both offensively and defensively 😉

    2. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      For this gw yes but Luiz won’t keep returning for long

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Agree. Will save a couple of FTs and do a bit of shuffling around.

  7. hazza44
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Which 3 to start? Cheers
    A. Gabriel BUR (H)
    B. Tsimikas BRE (H)
    C. Guehi EVE (H)
    D. Cash FUL (H)
    E. Lascelles BOU (A)

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      ADE

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      A, C/D/E

    3. OLLY G
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      A and D for sure.

      Not entirely sure about the other one.

      https://www.fantasyfootballreports.com/premier-league-clean-sheet-odds/

    4. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      AD and the others are close but Tsimikas imo is the best

    5. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      ABE

  8. OLLY G
    • 7 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    If Tsimikas starts tonight and plays 60+ mins should we expect him to start vs Brentford?

    I have Porro and Zouma and not sure who to start.

    1. Merlin the Wraith
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Who knows? apparently he requested Klopp not to start him gw11. Maybe he's got some shopping to do this w/end

    2. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Yes I’d expect him to start, Klopp plays with attacking full backs at Anfield for sure

  9. R.C
    • 6 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Has Gusto lost his spot?

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Yeah, James is back. Even before that Cucurella seemed to be preferred over him.

      1. R.C
        • 6 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Guso is a RB. Cucurella is a LB.

        1. R.C
          • 6 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          *Gusto

        2. Piggs Boson
          • 12 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          And yet Cucurella has still started at RB over him at times. He started at RB against Brighton and Burnley. Sometimes he'd play LB and it'd push Disasi out to RB.

          Either way, Gusto's time is up with James back.

    Has there been any news on Wilson's injury?

  11. niaz1982
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Decided on the following transfers:

    Johnstone
    Cash Trippier Andersen
    Mitoma Maddison* Son Diaby
    Haaland Watkins Alvarez

    Subs: Areola, Taylor, Porro, Diaz.

    Out = Maddison, Alvarez
    In = Gordon & Ferguson

    New line up:
    Johnstone
    Cash Trippier Andersen
    Mitoma Gordon Son Diaby
    Haaland Watkins Ferguson

    Subs: Areola, Diaz, Porro, Taylor

    All good?

    1. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Good moves

  12. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Talk me out of the madness of this move:

    Alvarez + Burn > Ferguson + Estupinan

    Is it crazy? Seems high upside given the fixtures...

    1. niaz1982
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Not that crazy just depends how Estupinan does on his return from the bench tonight

    2. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Alvarez to Ferguson isn’t a huge upgrade but if it happens to fund the Estu move then it’s worth

    3. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I am thinking same moves!

    4. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Estupinian - just back from long term injury, Brighton never keep clean sheets. Ferguson's data is poor + rotation risk? Are the fixtures actually that good? Sheff and Burnley are nice but the rest of the fixtures are meh

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Fixtures are markedly better than City's.

        It's a huge risk obviously but the upside is there if Brighton find their form.

    5. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Considering Alvarez to Ferguson myself but asi have only one FT may benefit more while keeping

    6. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Brighton haven't won in their last 5 and xG has dropped significantly. Ferguson is never guaranteed a start no matter who else is unavailable and he's had his own injury issues in the last few months. If Estupiñan does start this weekend I won't be one bit surprised to see him subbed pre-60 given he's been out for over a month and if he's going to get minutes just 3 days before that

    7. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Feguson yes, Estupinan no (or not yet). Likely cameo in gw 12 and de Zerbi never plays him immediately after the IB.
      I would advocate Dunk but he's 5.0 and cannot quite justify that price.

    8. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I am hoping for a pedro rest 🙂

      1. Crunchie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        tonight

  13. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Saliba or Estupinan?

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Hard to answer without seeing Brighton play tonight. If Estupinan is looking ready for a start on the weekend I'd rather him.

      I'd say if plays 30+ mins I'd take the gamble on him.

  14. DavvaMC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Don't want to burn a transfer so what do you think of below moves?

    A. Cash > Estu
    B. Cash > livramenro
    C. Alvarez > Ferguson
    D. Alvatez > Archer (to free up Cash to get Halland back in GW16)
    E. Something Else

    Thanks!

    1. Merlin the Wraith
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Maybe Palace for next few weeks. Cash-Andersen?

      1. DavvaMC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Already have Guehi and Johnstone.

        1. Merlin the Wraith
          • 7 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          That is a lot of CP 🙂 so apologise for suggestion as didn't know your squad. A transfer burn does boost your OR. You happy with your gk back-up? Be an ideal no pressure time to sort it. Best of luck whatever you decide

          1. DavvaMC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 3 Years
            6 months, 23 days ago

            Thanks, my current team below:

            Johnstone
            Tsimikas | Guehi | Cash
            Saka | Bowen | Salah | Son | Mitoma
            Watkins | Darwin

            Areola / Alvarez / Gabriel / Branthwaite

  15. Merlin the Wraith
    • 7 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Southgate describes Rashford's form as 'good and he's been scoring goals'. What matches has he been watching??

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I've no idea. Certainly not been scoring for United.

      Played well for England in the last break though, scored a good goal against Italy. Seems to work really well with Kane & Bellingham. There's a nice balance there, especially with Foden on the right.

      1. Merlin the Wraith
        • 7 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Take your point PB. He gets paid ££££££££££££sssssssss & we get paid 'weekly grief or joy' lol

  16. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Who takes pens for Newcastle now? Presumably Gordon... fancy a captaincy punt on Trippier but him being on pens would just be a bonus

    1. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Joelinton?

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Probably Schar

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      A few Newcastle fans on Twitter have said Trips. I thought it was Joelinton but hope it's Trips

    4. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Joelinton is listed as 3rd in line here but I guess that may have just carried over from his last pen in 20/21 (Andy Carroll was on the bench that day).

      Gordon has never taken a senior pen. He didn't spring to (my) mind as a frontrunner tbh. I was guessing maybe Trippier?

    5. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Most likely is Tripps. I think our last penalty shootout was in the carabao cup with Trippier and Joelinton both scoring. Schar didn’t play and Bruno missed.

    6. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I seem to recall Trippier having taken a few decent spot kicks in shootouts but apparently he has missed the only senior pens he took for Spurs and Atletico.

    7. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Oh god if you guys are right and it's Trippier then I'm in for a hiding these next few weeks

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        As someone above mentioned, Trippier has missed 2/2 career penalties - both in 2019

        Schar has scored 8/10 career penalties and that includes one he took and scored for Newcastle in 2021

    8. Hairy Potter
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I'd guess either Joelinton or Schar, if Wilson and Isak not on the pitch.

  17. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    2FT and no idea what to do 0.3m ITB

    Areola
    Gabriel Cash Maguire
    Salah(c) Saka Son Bowen Adringa
    Watkins Haaland

    Turner Archer Tsmitkas Taylor

    A) Taylor to Lascelles
    B) Tsmitkas to lascelles
    C) Adringa to Gordon
    D) Adringa to Palmer
    E) Turner to Odysseas Vlachodimos

    1. McSauce
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      F) Use 2FT

      Cash & Adringa --> Baldock & Mitoma

      Start Tsmitkas*

      1. ebb2sparky
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Villa must be one of favourites to keep a clean sheet this weekend so not sure I'd sell Cash

    2. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Good team. I'd change Turner to a cheaper GK to raise funds & go into IB with 2FT

    3. ebb2sparky
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I like D for the longer term but fixtures aren't great short term.

      C is a good one week punt

      If undecided then Turner to 3.9 makes sense since Turner won't play

  18. Corona is not good 4 U
    • 3 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    What to do with this mess? Have I also the correct captain and the correct bench?

    Sanchez
    Cash, Andersen, Tsimikas
    Salah, Saka, Son, Bowen
    Watkins, Alvarez, Darwin

    Turner, Mbeumo, Kabore, Botman

    1 free transfer and 1.3 in the bank.

    Thank you!

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Why do people ask "What to do with this mess,?" when it patently obviously isn't a mess ?

    2. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Tsimikas as captain is brave but GL.

    3. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Botman to Lascelles or roll.

  19. Corona is not good 4 U
    • 3 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    What is better?

    A) Sanchez -> Johnstone
    B) Botman -> White

    Thank you!

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Botman is the weaker link in your team, I'd get that dealt with first. Don't like White's price though. I'd rather Lascelles, or Saliba/Gabriel if you want an Arsenal defender.

      1. Corona is not good 4 U
        • 3 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Thank you. This was kind. Is Lascelles nailed the next weeks?

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 12 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          He's nailed while Botman is out injured.

          Howe is apparently waiting a few weeks to see if Botman requires surgery or not. So it could be a while.

  20. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Advice appreciated, 1 FT, 0.2 ITB.

    Areola
    Saliba, Cash, Tsimikas
    Salah, Son, Bowen
    Haaland, Watkins, Alvarez

    (Sanchez, Burn*, Neto*, Botman*, Chukwuemeka*)

    A) Burn* -> Lascelles
    B) Burn -> Maguire (!)

    A would allow a future upgrade of Bowen/Neto -> Saka/Palmer.

    Cheers

    1. Joey Jo-Jo Junior Shabadoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Was just about to post this as it is relevant for FPL given Burnley's prime fixtures and the fact he has been their standout player.

      Really sad and just shows that you never know what anybody is really going through or thinking about themselves.

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Sounds like he's being looked after so hopefully things turn around for him. Good to hear that he felt comfortable enough to approach Burnley openly about it and to come out about it publicly, that can only be a good sign

  22. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Areola
    Gabriel Cash Tsimikas
    Salah Son Saka Bowen Diaby
    Haaland Alvarez

    (3.9 Gueihi Archer Taylor)
    2 FTs & 0.3m

    A) Taylor to Lascalles
    B) Cash to Saliba
    C) Diaby to Mitoma

    Any other transfer to consider? Thoughts?

  23. George Sillett
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 23 days ago

    Why do many seem to be transfering out Alvarez . Am I missing something?

    1. ebb2sparky
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      I was thinking the same thing. I can only assume it's because he blanked last week and the fixtures could be better

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Best value player in FPL.

        1. ebb2sparky
          • 13 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          I didn't say I was selling him. Just speculating why others might be

    2. drughi
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 23 days ago

      Blanked 3 straight games, fixtures a bit harder now

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 23 days ago

        Looking at the defences City will be up against I think that there's goals in all of them

        1. drughi
          • 14 Years
          6 months, 23 days ago

          Me too, i'm keeping for now just listed why people are getting rid

            There were plenty of goals in those games .

      Im thinking of transferring him out because he has a few tough fixtures but he plays for ManCity, he is cheap and he is on direct FKs and corners so he is a hold for sure

    Got no NewC defence worth a hit Udogie to Lascelles?

    Currently playing Cash, Tsimikas, Michelle, bench Taylor & Udogie.

      Michelle, ma belle

      But no, I wouldn't take the hit there as Udogie only misses one game and your starting three looks decent enough this week

      Any update on Wilson and Saka? I have them in my team and I need to know if they are available.

      Saka and Burn > Gordon and Trippier?

      alternatively could sub out Son instead of Saka..

        Not a fan as Saka is a great option this week (best captain IMO)

        News today that Barnes is set to return end of November, so he could soon be back to compete with Gordon

      Lyle Foster was out due to fitness problems, which was a reason why Burnley's attack was bad recently. Today his family announced that he is dealing with mental health problems and he reached a specialist to overcome those struggles. Let's hope he returns soon
