    What a week.... Gabriel, Areola, Archer all on my bench....wish I had played bench boost

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

      Literally came here to say this!! But right decision on paper...

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Areola & Gabriel on my bench too.

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

        Same here 🙁 Livra came on 1 pointer

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

          Lascelles went off on 1 pointer for me.

    A bench of Areola Taylor Gabriel and Archer isn't exactly all that encouraging.

    1. syke63
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Same bench and sold Areola.

    2. theshazly
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Same exact bench and im crying here in cairo egypt

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Mesa Mesa 😉

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

          Ahla mesa

  3. Here is Cash, give McGinn
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Gabriel, Areola and Archer (Walker) on my bench. Best points than anyone on My starting lineup apart Solanke. Oh well at least value will increase

  4. DMP
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    TAA Porro Trippier

    Gabriel on my bench! Of course.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Frustrating isn’t it, by far and away easily the least likely to get an attacking return

    2. FFS ManU
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      TAA, Porro and Lascelles with Taylor on mine.

  5. F4L

    2 years, 4 months ago

    did rashford and saka go to the same barber this week

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

      Rashfords hair was even worse tbh.

  6. Garth Marenghi
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Dan Burn is nailed right?

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No, they have options in his position

      1. Garth Marenghi
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Even if Lascelles is out for a bit? Seemingly after he was subbed off at 36 min.

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Could still be a back 4 of

          Trip Schar botman livramento

          1. Garth Marenghi
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            Hmm was thinking possibly Trip Schar Burn Livramento, or the one you suggested but with Burn. Thanks

        2. NATSTER
          • 15 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Botman is back and he is their preferred CB.

          1. Garth Marenghi
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            I'd say then isn't Burn their preferred LB?

  7. Sgt. Schultz
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    anyone played Cash over Gab? o/

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

      I did lol

      1. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        at least I'm not alone this Christmas 😀

  8. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Urgh just can't get this season right

    Benched Gabriel for tsimikas
    Benched areola as thought he lost his place
    Captained watkins vc Son
    Sold Taylor for konsa & played konsa

    1. Bobbyg1
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Exactly the same!

    2. Will Kane
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No bad decisions there, just bad outcomes. Keep plugging away!

  9. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Don't think I'll recover(from an FPL point of view of course) if Gabriel scores a 15 points and is first on my bench..'

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I think the bench isn’t used the right way in fpl.

      I’m drafting a proposal to alter how the bench is used in fpl to them, hoping gets some traction.
      Will make the game much more tactical, and increase differential points scoring possibility

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

      Not a chance, Liverpool will score here and I'd be surprised if it was only 1

  10. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Some of the bench points this season have been absolutely brutal

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Areola, Archer and Gabriel here >:(

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Same with Taylor to!

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Very annoying

  11. FantasyTony

    Need palmer tummy ache tomorrow

  12. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Poch I need you to work your magic. Full rest for either Palmer or Gusto please...

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

      Forgot I have Palmer still to play

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

    Arsenal already sitting right back, it will be 1-1 pretty soon

  14. Von Lipwig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Decided to play one of Gabriel or Saliba... guess which one I went for

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Gabriel, that's the one I played.

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        ouch

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

      The one with the huge goal threat surely?

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        captain hindsight sayshi

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

          whats the reasoning to start saliba over gabriel

          1. Von Lipwig
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            poor reasoning I suppose

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

      Gabriel?

    4. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      The nailed one? Most logical decision

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        thank you. I feel better now

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          My pleasure

  15. The Philosopher

    Fun fact:

    Since Gabriel joined Arsenal, he's been the highest goal scoring defender in the league.

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

      Another fun fact:

      Arteta fcked over many Gabriel owners at the start of the season, because they picked him over Saliba for just that reason, Gabriels goal threat.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Quality of defenders has dropped in the league for a while now

      I remember a time when defenders were notching goals. Likes of Terry, Baines, Cahill was prime pl

    I was upset 30 mins ago that I didnt start Taylor over Gabriel. 😀

    Anyone else noticed how protruded Jesus’ left cheekbone is? Just an observation

  26. Zenith UK

    Jesus. The bags under Tsimikas’ eyes. This fella not sleeping at all?!

    1. g40steve

      Flol

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years

      Probably hereditary, I suffer with the same issue

    Carra’s watching a different game to me 😀

    1. toerag

    gabriel 2 seats down from areola on my bench,brutal is exactly the word

    1. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Same here, with Archer separating them.

  29. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Only on 20 points, screw FPL

  30. JBG
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Would you prefer it if FPL adopted the CL fantasy way off bench use? Where you can sub out a player that has played and sub in a player that hasn't played yet that one GW?

    But has to be different days though, not the same day. So Saturday player to Sunday player for example.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      no

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

      Certainly wouldn't have any fodder on squads

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      100%, otherwise the bench is pointless and you only get points off of it through luck.

      Would make the game much better, with more distributed use of funds for stronger benches etc
