    Is TAA a must have? Already have Saliba and Porro so don't think my team structure all 3

    1. Jon Snow
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      *structure can fit

    2. FFS ManU
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      The stats on the official FPL website show him as having the best form score for all players over the last 30 days, so I think that he is with Burnley up next.

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

    Tsimikas > TAA makes getting Haaland back very difficult. Any other defender is fine, so considering Gabriel/Saliba

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

      It's very easy to get him by selling Salah or Son

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

        I don’t own Salah or Son

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

          Really!? What’s your rank?

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

            My thoughts exactly

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

            And mine

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

          This is unfortunate

  3. Josh.E
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Hello, help is appreciated! no FT, so the team is;

    Dubravka
    Gabriel, Porro, Konsa
    Saka, Son, Salah(C), Gordon, Palmer
    Nunez, Solanke

    Subs: Areola, Watkins, Taylor, Tsimikas

    A. gtg
    B. (-4) to remove Tsimikas to Trent?

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

      No FT already lol?

      1. Josh.E
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        brought Konsa yesterday, would likely miss the next deadline since I'll be travelling

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

      If you take a hit for Trent, who are you benching

      1. Josh.E
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        am torn, already benching Watkins, could bench Palmer

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

          Then no hit

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

      A

  4. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which options would you pick to start from these pairs please?

    1) Gabriel (WHU) / Pinnock (WOL)
    2) Archer (LUT) / Bowen (ars)

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

      Attackers

  5. Manani
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Trent or Haaland more essential next week? Can afford 1 of them before my WC

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

      Trent

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

      TAA

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

      Hoping Haaland doesn't play

  6. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    181 points benched. Got my average back over 10 with 20 on the bench this week.

    I’m good

    1. Rico123
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I see your 20 and raise you 32 (Areola, Archer, Gabriel, Taylor)

      1. Rico123
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Although ‘only’ 168 for the season so far so not quite at your heights there

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

      This is one of the reasons why I always have one of the cheapest playing bench possible. Turner Archer Taylor Udogie*

  7. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Livra to TAA?
    Also, play Alvarez or Bailey?

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

      Yes to TAA in isolation.

      Depends on Haaland availability

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

        Livra is my main def, Taylor and Lamptey on bench…

    2. FFS ManU
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yes to TAA. Play Alvarez.

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Cheers guys

  8. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Early transfer thoughts:

    Probably save FT to make the Haaland move easier.

    Not ruled out Livramento to Trent but not sure who I would bench, maybe Porro.

    1FT 7.6ITB
    Dubravka
    Porro Saliba Gabriel
    Salah Saka Palmer Gordon Son
    Solanke Watkins
    (Areola Archer Livramento Taylor)

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

      Save

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

    Best Tsimikas replacement?

    A. Konsa
    B. Colwill

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

      I’m in exactly the same spot.

      Would throw in Mykolenko for me.

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

        Everton fixtures pretty bad though

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

          That’s true, but Could have easily picked up at least an assist today.
          And Everton have generally looked good
          Colwill fixtures but will be on the bench soon.
          Konsa safe but relying on a CSheets for points

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

            Villa also have good long term fixtures

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

      Konsa based on Chilwell returned to partial team training.

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

      B

  10. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    All suggestions appreciated:

    Leno (Areola)
    Trippier, Porro, Lascelles (Robinson, Branthwaite)
    Salah, Son, Bowen, Gordon, Douglas Luiz
    Haaland, Watkins (Osula)

    Only one ft.

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

      Need to fix that 3rd def spot. Lasc injury today.

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

      Defender transfer. First choice Schar and Botman are back playing so sell Lascelles regardless of injury

    3. FFS ManU
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Assuming that you don't have enough itb to do Trippier to TAA then I suggest replacing Lascelles, especially since he went off injured today.

  11. Fellaini's Fro
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which midfielder to sign on a 1 week punt (up to 10.5m)

    Saka WHU
    Odegaard WHU
    Sterling CPL
    Bruno G NFO
    Richarlison bha

    1. Stranger Mings

        Plus he is in great form.

  12. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    You just have to laugh at fantasy sometimes. I'm on a massive 27 points, Palmer and Hwang left.

    Areola, Senesi, and Taylor mocking me form my bench. Meanwhile I got Leno in for was almost certainly a guaranteed CS.

    xD

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

      Harsh on Leno, conceding from Burnley only 2 SoT and both was outside the box at 0.02 and 0.04 xG

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        soon as Areola got a cleanie, I just knew it was coming lol. That said, Leno is the long term pick ofc, it is what it is.

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

          Right decision, unlucky outcome

          1. have you seen cyan
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            yea, thanks.

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

      I feel ya, got Martinez in for his guaranteed cleanie, Archer ruined it and is first on my bench

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        yea fair enough, same to you. TBH I laughed when the Villa cs went, mainly because of Cash, but yea it does suck all around in reality.

  13. Casual Player
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Another week another defender transfer required. Time to splash the Haaland money I guess.

    Im assuming there are no Xmas day pressers and we all have to guess before the deadline?

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

      What about getting Haaland back?

      1. Casual Player
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I guess this assumes he doesn’t play midweek and then it’s a GW20 problem

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

          I'm also hoping he doesn't play midweek and splashed the cash on Tsimi to TAA.

  14. sirmorbach

      1. sirmorbach

        2 years, 2 months ago

        Woof!

      Can you do neither?

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

        4.3 max to swap Lascelles for sadly

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

          Hmmm can you save the transfer at least?

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

            Yes! Probably better, you're right. Thanks, mate.

    Dubravka
    TAA Trippier Porro
    Salah Son Saka Gordon Palmer
    Watkins Solanke

    Start Raya or Dubravka???

    Thoughts welcomed!!

    1. Tonyawesome69

      Yes save FT - Dubravka, likely higher CS odds

        There's no 15/16 in my previous seasons, does that mean I didn't play?

          Without seeing your team link, that would be the case. People normally omit really bad seasons from my experience on here. A link would second your ranks.

        2. Royal5

          Just link the team

        3. FFS ManU
          • 3 Years

          I guess that's the case. I don't think that someone who was faking their track record would include the figures over 100k, even though they are still decent ranks imo.

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

          Not sure, Pep has all his defenders available and their defence hasn't appealed to me this season so I haven't looked too much in detail

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

            Yes terrible pick

  21. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Benched Areola, Mengi and Taylor for a cool 14 point loss

  22. have you seen cyan

    2 years, 2 months ago

    what happened to Tsimi did Klopp break him?

    1. have you seen cyan

      oh for godsake

    2. FFS ManU
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Saka got away with fouling him. A hard shove made him fall and bang his shoulder and also slide into Klopp, who then landed on his legs as he fell.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        yea i found the video, broken collar bone..

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

        That was more of a nudge than a hard shove. Saka was streetwise.

  23. Vasshin

    Saka palmer salah son bowen solanke watkins alvarez

    Thanks

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

      I think I would consider benching Saka. Ignore his EO, I'm not sure he is doing well at the moment

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

      I would bench Alvarez.

  24. Kay317
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    Has there been any news on Haaland for the Everton game? I still have Darwin, didn't take a hit to bring in Solanke as thought it wouldnt be worth it for a week, and now I'm fuming.

    Haaland

    Who would you prioritise for 19?

    My bench is a disgrace:
    Areola 8
    Gabriel 10
    Archer 8
    Taylor 6
    32 points *cries*

    I was thinking of Areola > Pickford last night, but will leave it after the CD and as already have Leno as long-term first choice.

    Will likely shift Mitchell before a price drop now. As I already have Schaar from Newcastle, I've considered Tarkowski, Konsa, Pinnock, Colwill, Senesi etc., but have a hunch Mykolenko is the one to get.

    Isak owners with no Solanke - what’s the plan? Very tempted to knee jerk him in tonight after a shocking gameweek which also included 24 points on my bench. Pretty fed up of this season!
