    Going to the game on Sunday, get both Darwin and Tsim in?

    1. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Sounds good

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Darwin is a donkey

    3. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I wish I could get Olivia Tsim in.

  2. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Start Lascelles or Pedro Porro?

    1. shorey143
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Lascelles all day long

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Neither will get a CS, Porro far more likely to get an attacking return, Lascelles got his first goal in over 2 years.

        And I benched it!

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Ouch, of course my rival brought him in while I have Trippier

  3. Ballito

    Allison out for 4 weeks plus! Kheller a good punt at 3.9m?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      You should go watch Klopp's presser or read his quote on Alisson

    2. _Greg
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      more like 2 weeks.

    3. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes for next 2 or even 3 GWS

    4. TKC07
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      2 weeks out with 3 fixtures mostly..
      Dec 3 - FUL (H)
      Dec 7 - SHU (A)
      Dec 9 - CRY (A)

    UCL Fantasy:

    a) Raya v Lens (h), or 5pts (Blaswich)
    b) Start Hojlund, or 2pts (Akanji).

      Won't we get MU team news before deadline?

      1. PartyTime

        well…game could get called off

      2. nerd_is_the_werd
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Yup, but sometimes I forget and like to pull the plug early.
        Even if he's benched I might just play him, only scenario is if he's injured.

  5. Bring the Cavalry
    • 9 Years

    Is Martinelli + Alvarez > Gordon + Darwin -4 worth it?

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      no

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Mother of Jesus man

    3. boc610
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      lol no

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Please tell me you're not ranked higher than 200k?

    5. Bring the Cavalry
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Haha! didn’t think it was that bad of a shout with Jota injury and martinelli XG about 0 but cheers for the advice everyone, much appreciated

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Just winding you up 😉 but no I wouldnt do that but then I don't rate Darwin although he'll get that many chances even he'll score although it should be Salah Diaz Gakpo starting IMO

      2. WVA
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Also Alvarez will keep returning and Marti has Wol then Lut

        1. Bring the Cavalry
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Alvarez has returned 1 assist in 4 gameweeks. Martinelli has a combined XG of 0.08 v Burnley and brentford. This was more the thought process, cheers though!

      Not sure why everyone is hating on it. Martinelli has been a terrible fantasy asset all season and Darwin could be the highest scoring player this GW. I don't think I would do it for a -4 but I don't hate the idea at all.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I agree. It's not worth -4 alone, but hits are sometimes needed to keep the team intact etc. I started the season with Martinelli and kept him longer than others to see "extreme roller coaster drama" 🙁 Freeing up one Ars slot may be beneficial if double def + Saka is needed for example. Gw18 is also getting closer, so delaying transfers just to take hits later is an issue also.

        1. Bring the Cavalry
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          I don’t like taking hits, 2 so far this season and 1 was late injury news to Maddison. But feel like this one could pay off also giving an extra 1.1itb …. But it could also fail spectacularly!

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

      Yeah I would go for that

    8. junitrules
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'm not sold on darwin but I'm in the same boat of getting rid of martinelli. I think he could do well once he starts firing but I'm going him and cash for mbeumo and saliba

      1. Bring the Cavalry
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Even with some quality fixtures he has been terrible, that’s why I am willing to take a hit to get rid of him. Might give him one more week since he is at home then get rid

    9. nerd_is_the_werd

      Just ignore the "experts" in these forums if you believe it to be the best move.

      Loads of people recommended to bench Tsimikas when I posed the question in GW12, then hid behind the sofa and closed the keyboard when he hauled.

        you cant predict the exact outcome all you can do is give yourself the best chance to be in position to get points.

        There were good reasons people advised to bench Tsimikas, we werent aware of the Gomez injury at the time for one thing.

    10. The Road to Turfdom
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I'm not sure it's worth -4, but for me that's a considerable upgrade. Depends a bit on your time frame

  6. ChickenTikkaMoSalah

    Sterling or Mbeumo?

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Mbeumo

  7. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Which pair scores more over the next 5-6 GWs?

    A: Watkins + Mbeumo
    B: Son + Solanke

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      It should be A but I have them so it will be B

  8. Dotherightthing

    Bench 1 pls
    A- son
    B- Gordon
    C- Soucek
    Thanx

    1. I Member

      C

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      You don't need to ask

      1. Dotherightthing
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Soucek has the easiest fixture

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          CP rarely capitulates. They at least were defensively sound.

            • 10 Years

            Good point, cheers

    2 years, 4 months ago

    Darwin xMins have increased significantly with the Jota news. Unless I missed quotes, Klopp didn't put a timeframe on it which is never a good thing going off Jota's previous long term injuries.

    Fulham (H), Sheffield (a), Palace (a), United (H), Arsenal (H), Burnley (a) before the New Year. I reckon there's a massive haul in there (Fulham or Sheffield in particular), but probably a game or two where he misses every chance too.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Watkins likely to play all games. The question is whether Darwin, in maybe 1 or at max 2 fewer games, can outscore him. The fixtures are certainly there.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        The question for my team is not between Watkins and Darwin, it's between getting Saka long term or having Trippier+Darwin.

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I may get him over saka on WC

  10. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    There used to be No Salah camp, then No Haaland camp. Template is now strong and many have both Son and Saka, but they both are hard to fit with all other template players. Another competing pair seems to be Gordon and Palmer. I believe we are going to see a lot transfers between Son/Saka and Gordon/Palmer based on chasing last week's points.

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I've stuck loyally in the No Points camp

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I am now in "No Saka camp".

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Very easy to have most.

      Areola
      Trippier Gabriel Tsimikas
      Salah Son Saka Mbeumo Palmer
      Haaland Watkins

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        That's actually true. Hadn't noticed. Means weak bench (gw 18 in mind) though. And OR basically sticking to where it is atm. Would also mean no Darwin and -8 next week for me.

    3. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Can't wait for the inevitable. My attackers are staying the same until Asia/Africa cups with the sole exception being Bowen if declared out out, or any other serious injury between now and then.

  11. The Big Fella
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    It seems a few people have picked the Hwang player......

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Rival who is rank 48 in the world got him off the bench for Bowen last game week

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Won't be getting him off the bench this week though will he? 😆 Careful though, maybe he is watching us!

  12. Erez Avni

    Have no idea what to do…

    1 FT 0.4 ITB

    Areola
    Cash Trippier Taylor
    Son Salah(c) Eze Martineli Gordon
    Haaland Watkins

    Turner Archer Maguire Kabora

    A. Martineli to Bomo and play Archer
    B. Eze to Palmer
    C. Martineli to Bomo & Eze to Palmer (-4)

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I might do C, but I am not hit averse like most here. However, after A starting Archer is certainly better than Palmer -4. If Archer returns and Palmer blanks, you are going to feel like an idiot.

  13. kellamergh

    Should I bring in Saliba or Raya?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I have Gabriel + Zinch and room for Saka. My plan is to get Sanchez in. Depends on the rest of your team and other plans imo.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years

            Raya perhaps better long term.

    2. Prinzhorn
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Raya is the value, Salina the safe pick

  14. Prinzhorn
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Mbeumo (-4)
    or
    Palmer

    1. kellamergh
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Mbeumo

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      A will win before gw18

    • 15 Years

    Stick on 12 points from Haaland as CPT or twist Captain to:
    A. Kane
    B. Bellingham

    Rule is to stick on 6 points (that is 12 pts for the CPT), unless great fixture and known starter. Bellingham will start, Kane slight question as to starting. TIA

    1. The Red Devil
      • 11 Years

      Same doubt, thinking of switching to Kane coz easier fixture

      I would keep

    3. PartyTime

      Kane(C) for me. I might regret it.

  19. raoulduke71

      I would keep

  23. Salarrivederci
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Eze + White -> Saka + Baldock for free and 0.0 ITB

    My problem will be moving forward without an Arsenal defender, and that I would have to play one of Taylor/Baldock/Archer/Semenyo/Wood/Morris each GW.
    Downgrading Morris in the nearest future would allow me to get Flekken instead of Turner or to upgrade Tsimikas to James or something like that.

    Team for next GW:
    Areola
    TAA - Trippier - Tsimikas - Taylor
    Salah - Son - Saka - Mbeumo - Palmer
    Haaland
    (Turner, Morris, Archer, Baldock)

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Gw 18 plan with those transfers?

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        GW18 would be something like if I did the above moves:

        Areola
        TAA - Trippier - James - Taylor
        Salah - Son - Saka - Palmer
        Wood - Archer
        (Flekken*, Baldock, Haaland*, Mbeumo*)

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Can you afford Saka by downgrading Morris instead? White to Saka seems partially sideways. Saka has been only assisting and will get pen one day aad perhaps shoot it, but White also has haul potential. Saka is not famous of huge hauls. Short term White could match him.

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        No. I would need the 1.7 from White -> Baldock.
        The only reason I am selling White is because I don't trust him starting the next couple. I fear he could be benched in the midweek against Luton and start this one as an example.

        Could do Eze + Son > MGW + Saka and keep White.

        Doing that would give me the option to upgrade Morris -> Isak within the next two GWs (Could do Morris + White + Turner -> Isak + Baldock + Raya) With money to upgrade Tsimikas to James.

  24. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years

    Any rumours on Kane or Bellingham being benched tonight?

  25. Teddy10
    • 7 Years

    Does anyone know the least amount of time a player can go up or down following a change? ie could someone go up twice in 2/3 days

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

      Max 3 times a week, could be consecutive days.

  26. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Play one:
    A. Livramento (MUN)
    B. Guehi (whu)
    C. Taylor (SHU)

    1. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would play Livramento

  27. 1justlookin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone considering buying Son, rather than selling or keeping him?

    Was looking at bringing him in when they play West Ham at home in GW 15.

    1. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think Spurs missing three or four of their best players are worth investing in

  28. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Better moves:

    A) Son -> Palmer, Diaby -> Elanga, Alvarez -> Haaland for a -4

    B) Son -> Palmer, Diaby -> Gordon, Alvarez -> Haaland, Nketiah -> Semenyo for a -8

    Been playing this silly game for 19 years now and can’t think of a worse season. Literally every choice made turns out badly. Bring Diaz in, his dad is kidnapped. Bring in Son last GW for a hit, terrible bad luck and gets no returns. Brought in Mitoma for Sterling a few weeks back. Started on bench against Luton and Sterling returned in match again at City. The list is almost endless. Gotta laugh really.

    I’m not bitter though and I know plenty of others have had terrible luck too (and whatever anyone says, there is a large slice of luck when playing FF). Just one of those things. Onwards and upwards.

    Current team:

    Sanchez
    Aguerd | Digne | Trippier
    Salah | Son | Bowen | Diaby
    Haaland | Alvarez | Edouard

    My thoughts this week. If Bowen is confirmed out then Diaz is a good option whilst Jota injured. Liverpool could do well against Fulham at home.

    Not sure if Diaby came off injured at the weekend or was taken off as he was having a terrible match?
