      one of the funniest times i had at a footy match was watching this footballer called Branstone for Lincoln City. Couldn't quite make out his name from the stand, so I nicknamed him 'Brainstorm', then subsequently a friend and I went on to create a narrative on how incredible this guy was using his awesome power etc (The game was absolutely rubbish).

      Just after stating how awesome he was in some fashion Branstone subsequently kicked the ball straight up 180 degrees vertically about 30 feet in the air. I nearly wet myself.

      Bergstrom 3.9m yeah.

    The right answer is get Haaland for GW22, not 21.

    1. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Depends what the question is

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        The Q is, can I get Haaland in 21 for free?

    2. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      correct.

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Being able to get him in for free or not also enables someone’s opinion on if they think he’ll start or not.

      Solid
      I’m not 100% sold on Rich and Man Utd away being a great fixture like people think though

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years

        Not sold on rich at all. Could get in gross or Eze. Cheers

            Still unsure about the mid budget mids. Who are you considering?

        Thoughts on Rodri as a pick?

        1. Evil Greg
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          probably outclassed by Olise/Luiz?

  4. DropkickMurphys
    • 3 Years
    3 months, 28 days ago

    How come Salah’s price don’t go down more!? 1.25M millions of people sold him and it went down only like what 0.2£ ? I wish things weren’t intentionally left very opaque when it comes to price changes.

    1. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Mark still owns him.

    2. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      you are capped to rise or drop 0.3m in any given gameweek and the threshold increases each time. The threshold is also further increased by 25%-50% by the red flag 'unavailable' status.

      1. DropkickMurphys
        • 3 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        I see and thanks, but I think his price has only dropped 0.1£ so far, not even 0.2. And that was about 4 days ago…

        1. Evil Greg
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          yes basically if we could tell people when to sell we would choose them to spread it out each deadline. then he would go down 0.4m-0.5m.

    I moved early

    I got Bowen and Richarlison in are the duds.

    After the game last night should I have gone Foden over Richarlison???

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years

      what happened last night?

    2. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years

      Richarlison has always been a trap. Bowen will serve you well.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Bowen has his issues with team support but if you need a season keeper he is probably the man.

        1. _Freddo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years

          Paqueta is training.

      2. Gazzpfc
        • 7 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        With Doku kdb and Haaland back in a few wks Foden a risk

    3. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Maddison will lay some on for him.

  6. Gazzpfc

    Blanked

    1. Evil Greg

      White

  7. Eze Really?

    In a weeks time the game will rely on the most important strategy of the season so far.
    Everyone will be different but any moves in the GW to come will have a serious impact on the future.
    We all know the possible DGW and BGW possibly arriving and most of us will be affected by Pool Spurs and Chelsea assets.
    To add to this, Citeh decisions will be paramount.
    I have 7 of the above 4 clubs mentioned and 5 that can have missing weeks. On top of this, Pool can miss GW26 and 29.
    Getting back Haaland could require a Salah sell and finding a way to get him back.
    BGW29 would suggest a chip used but can we bring it forward to GW25/26?

    What are you guys going to do? Will you take it on the chin in GW26 or wait for the BGW29 when there may be few decent players to choose from?
    Most engaged managers make ground the second half of the season but "engaged" is becoming old hat.

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      no plan until confirmation but early WC can be an option if it looks tricky.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        My thing is Luton cannot play 3 times in GW25 so will the Pool game or Bournemouth game move forward if at all?

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      I used my BB last week so hopefully I’m freer to use my WC early and held navigate these tricky weeks rather than having to hold it til GW 36 to set up a DGW the following week.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        BB good to get rid IMO. I think WC in 36 is probably too late and transfers can be used to get to GW37. The problem many have is targeting DGW players but sacrificing good players sometimes too early.

    3. BullDogTevez
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Not worth thinking about until GW 23/24

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Before 22 IMO

    4. Evil Greg

      Just need to wait a week and there will be much more information.

    5. _Freddo

      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      I’m going to see what happens this weekend but I’m leaning towards an early WC to attack this Salah/Sonless period (leave money to get both back) & prepare for the future doubles/blank that we know about.

      Could load the bench with Luton & Bournemouth players so you don’t have to waste FTs or a FHC on them, their fixs aren’t bad anyway for bench cover, something like Neto, Dogherty, Barkey, Senesi.

      Without Salah you can reduce Liverpool right down, let’s be honest, everyone outside of Salah & Trent are punts.

      Reduce Chelsea right down to Palmer

      Lose the Spurs defence, you’re really relying on them for attacking returns so can find alternatives like Brighton (who have an amazing run) find an alternative to Richarlison who can easily be matched (he’s not Son or Maddison)

      Pick the right City trio in preparation (not hold on to the ones you have who may be risky soon like Alvarez)

      I’m finding little arguments against it other than using it to get Son/Salah back (you’ll have the funds banked to do that without a WC as you’re structuring now) or using in in 36 for BBin 37, a strategy I don’t see working this year because almost everyone with have Salah, Son, Haaland & maybe Trent then who you won’t sell so your WC will be spent on minor positions.

      Definitely think every year is different and looking to adapt to it should be looked deep into & not dismissed because YouTube haven’t endorsed it yet.

      Without Son & Salah, these weeks are weeks to attack not tread water.

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        Can also take some exciting punts for 2 weeks that the game won’t go near because they won’t waste a FT on them, Toney & KDB spring to mind (if Kev starts today or gets decent mins, he’s an option)

      2. Eze Really?

        3 months, 28 days ago

        Are you really "attacking it" by keeping funds back though? I think the way to do it was spread the funds as soon as Haaland got injured to get max number of fixtures out of the likes of Trent. No guarantee BOU/LUT is going to be scheduled soon

        1. _Freddo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          To a degree I think you can, players (if it looks on) like KDB, Haaland, Doku, Dogherty, Toney, Estupinan while losing players you’re chained to with tougher fixs is a way of looking to edge ahead.

          I look at my team now with Trippier, Alvarez, Solanke (think some could be better for a few) Baldock, Taylor (players who will have to be relied on) as quite defensive & negative, can see the current team falling away.

          1. _Freddo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 months, 28 days ago

            Let’s be honest, when the big doubles come around, with or without a WC everyone will have almost identical teams. The period leading up to it might be where the swings/gains come this year.

            DGWs are usually everyone locked in like clones.

            1. Derbz87
              • 9 Years
              3 months, 28 days ago

              You've not been listening to Crellin have you? Facts are we'll all know when the DGW and BGW are at the same time when they are officially announced. No amount of fancy spreadsheets will give Crellin the power to move games himself so the speculation is wasted time imo.

            Ah ok, so I guess you mean have the Salah/Son funds readily accessible by e.g. parking them in KDB rather than keeping itb.

            I certainly agree with the theory of attacking this; just I've gone about it in a different way. Punting on some differentials with short-term fixtures I like (e.g. Groß) rather than trying to anticipate the DGWs just yet or go early on players just returning from long injury/absence (although I'm up for Neto/Maddison).

            I can't stand having the same team as everyone else so I'll find some way to differentiate later too, perhaps to my detriment 🙂

            1. _Freddo
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              3 months, 27 days ago

              I do that a lot and it often leads to mistakes, come off Twitter if you have to than every team won’t look the same.

              Yeah, even without a WC, Salah & Son turned into Foden & Bowen & that money won’t be spent, the moves will be reversed when it’s the right time.

              The front 7 is the popular front 7 so the money in the bank is not hurting, without the WC I’ll just use it on those 2 spots.

              1. The Mentaculus
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 2 Years
                3 months, 27 days ago

                Actually I am trying this season to ignore EO and make the boring moves if I think they're sound. Don't have a twitter account. I still end up a bit off-template (e.g. haven't owned Saka since GW7 or Alvarez at all) but have maybe curbed some of the more extreme EO-motivated moves like benching Haaland when not captained (did that a few times last season & it really hurt...)

        2. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          3 months, 27 days ago

          All premium assts are not in the game atm so spending for the sake of it may not be wise. I will try to design a team to get Haaland in 22 and salah dependent on DGW/BGW.
          Bowen ticks boxes as may an Arsenal mid but will they score better than a level lower?
          I would not get the 8 mil plus players because it could create issues down the road. Your team could handle though,

    6. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      25 will be tough to budget for if both City & Pool double. Guess I would have to hold off on getting Son back.

      Looks like 26/29 will be FH time; leaning latter I suppose since I currently have 2x TOT, 0x CHE, 1x LIV, 0x LUT (would add Salah if back for DGW then sell for Son I guess).

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        You could easily use FT on Liverpool if you have your preferred City assets locked in now.

        Watkins to Darwin for example or Bowen to Salah.

        Rolling a FT would be a good idea before it.

        1. _Freddo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          At the same time, the doubles for said teams won’t vanish so they’ll come, whenever is a guess but you can certainly prepare for them.

  8. AARON-1
    • 2 Years

    Breaking news: I'm going to captain Darwin Nunez against Bournemouth.
    One last game before I boot him out for Haaland.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      Darwin Nudist!

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years

      You and me both! I’ve held him for far too long so can’t wait to go out in a blaze of four-point glory.

  9. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 months, 28 days ago

    Neto back and gets an assist already (in the FA cup)

    Until he got injured he was on 1G 8A from 10 matches.

    Being overlooked?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      being on set-piece helps, decent pick for steady return(or 1st sub).

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Definitely worth consideration but he’s up against Doug Luiz and Palmer in mine team and those two have penalties.

    3. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Him/Garnacho IMO

    4. Evil Greg

      Cunha is decent too like Joao Pedro.

      • 2 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Starting to generate a bit of attention here now. Terrific player. I actually prefer him to Palmer. Was ticking over regularly at the start of the season; now that Wolves' attack has gelled and looks more explosive I think he can kick on to deliver more double digit hauls

  10. HurriKane

    Does KDB being back means Foden is moved to either RW or LW denting his fantasy appeal?

    Torn on between Jota and Foden.

    1. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Ginge will be eased back in and all Guardiola’s pressers have confirmed this. What’s more likely to happen is Foden gets dragged off at 70-80 mins for the next few

    2. HODGE
      • 10 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      Jota looks sharp, for me he starts while Salah is away. Think Darwin or Gakpo more likely to be benched

    3. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      I don't think we know the answer to this. It's a wait and see really. KDB has been out for so long!

    4. Oscar Slater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      I didn't realise KDB was approaching 33. With his dodgy hammy, I can't see him running about like a spring chicken anymore. He'll be like the older guy we've all played football with, spraying short passes here, there and everywhere, kicking the young kids and never breaking into anything than a trot.

        Ryan Giggs says hi.

        1. Evil Greg
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 28 days ago

          Giggs was pretty decent as a defensive midfielder in the end! Scholes, Carrick and then Giggs were so important to just keep possession and control tempo. It's a dying art and Man Utd could do with a few of these elite in possession types otherwise they will never become elite again.

    5. Sir Matt Bugsby
      • 4 Years
      3 months, 28 days ago

      KdB back doesn't affect Foden: it affects Alvarez.

      Foden is essentially filling in for Haaland, therefore Haaland back is what affects Foden. And yes, that will shunt him out to the wing and dent his appeal.

  11. DropkickMurphys
    • 3 Years
    3 months, 28 days ago

    I used the FT on Son -> Saka. I was gonna go for Bowen but changed my mind last second. Now I want Bowen too. Should I do Salah -> Bowen for -4 and 0.2£ loss on Salah?
    I am hoping Haaland isn’t back so I don’t have to consider another hit too…

      Haaland won't be a good pick for 21 anyway. Newcastle will knock their small neighbours out today in the cup and they'll be back bouncing for that game against City. Nice and rested up too. SJP is the 2nd hardest place to go after Anfield to get a result imo. Alternatively they get knocked out and Howe gets sacked and its a great game for City.

      I got Bowen for 7.9m for Son right after deadline. If he gets fluid on his knee again I will go mental.

      1. DropkickMurphys
        • 3 Years
        3 months, 28 days ago

        He’s already 8.1m, but if your 0.3 rule is correct, waiting until deadline may be okay. Although then Salah would go down 🙂
        He just may really a double digit that night and I don’t wanna miss it.

        1. Evil Greg
          • 14 Years
          3 months, 27 days ago

          Yeah 0.3m rises in one week are very rare these days. you should of been here in 2006-2007, you had to wildcard gameweek 1 to catch all the 0.3m rises!

      Nothing wrong with a hit to fix a 13m hole in your midfield imo

    4. Oscar Slater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yeah, go for it. Salah guaranteed zero points for the foreseeable future so effectively it's only a -2 with benefits.

    Bowen 680926 transfers in, 0.2 rise.

    500,000 wildcards potentially in play?

        • 14 Years

        Werner is probably still extremely fast and also reasonable in possession. Probably gonna play LW.

        1. JBG
          • 5 Years
          3 months, 27 days ago

          Yes was thinking the same, play him LW for his speed and pressing ability. (Can't say much on his playmaking ability though).

        Didn't his ban last until January 20?

            16th

      2. Harold99
          3 months, 27 days ago

          Tbh I doubt he starts his first game back so I have no idea why he is in the scout team when Watkins is playing Everton. If Toney has been keeping fit he should be starting soon after though

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 months, 27 days ago

            I'd say the team is in a state where they kind of need him to start though.

            1. Harold99
                3 months, 27 days ago

                I expect he will come into the team very quickly but I don't know if he will start first game back. Probably 45 mins off the bench first game, 60 min starting next and then go from there.

                1. Wild Rover
                  • 13 Years
                  3 months, 27 days ago

                  Nah, he’s as fit as a fiddle and will start.

                  1. Harold99
                      3 months, 27 days ago

                      I don't really know Toney very well but match fitness and training fitness are often pretty different things. Most players after 8 months of not playing wouldn't just start even against Nottingham.

                      1. Holmes
                        • 10 Years
                        3 months, 27 days ago

                        He has been training with team since September, so shouldnt be a big deal.

                  2. _Freddo
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 14 Years
                    3 months, 27 days ago

                    Why wouldn’t he start? They are injury hit, he’s been in full training since Sept, they’ve arranged behind closed doors games for him.

                    He wasn’t eligible to play last night, Frank won’t be able to hold him back.

              • Nate(U)dog(ie)
                • 3 Years
                3 months, 27 days ago

                He has been playing numerous behind-closed-doors games since October/November to get match fit. Not like he's returning from an injury, at worst my guess is he starts and gets subbed around 70mins maybe in his first couple of games but will hit 90mins after that

                1. Harold99
                    3 months, 27 days ago

                    I guess playing 'friendlies' could be good enough but still not sure if that would be similar intensity to the Prem

                  • NATSTER
                    • 13 Years
                    3 months, 27 days ago

                    Yeah. Read that he's been back in training since September. With Mbeumo out, Brendford will surely push him to start ASAP.

              • Nate(U)dog(ie)
                • 3 Years
                3 months, 27 days ago

                The bigger question for me is why is he in the scout picks given Brentford's terrible form. He will of course improve the side but he's going into a team with no Henry, Mbeumo, Wissa or Schade. Needs to be supplied before he can have much of an impact

                1. Harold99
                    3 months, 27 days ago

                    Yeah that one really purplexed me, guy hasn't played in 8 months, is in a poor attacking team and barely cheaper than Watkins.

                2. Planet Head
                  • 7 Years
                  3 months, 27 days ago

                  No chance he'll be in their final 11 over Watkins

              • NATSTER
                • 13 Years
                3 months, 27 days ago

                Seen lot of talks about Richarlison, but little on B Johnson.

                Not sure if it has been discussed already. His move to left side and change from crosser to cut-in & shoot looks interesting from FPL perspectives for me.

                1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
                  • 3 Years
                  3 months, 27 days ago

                  Far too wasteful and unreliable in my opinion. Gets chances but rarely converts. He's had 24 shots since the last IB (9 games), only 10 of those were on target and he hasn't scored once

                  1. Holmes
                    • 10 Years
                    3 months, 27 days ago

                    In old days, we would consider that as a sign of being "due"

                    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
                      • 3 Years
                      3 months, 27 days ago

                      I'm sure some still will derive that from those stats! I know he's good for running the channels and stretching defensive lines but I still find it amazing that Spurs spent that money on him. He's still young enough but I've never even seen a hint of what they must have seen in him

                2. The Mentaculus
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                  3 months, 27 days ago

                  I think he's better (for the team) on the right as a crosser tbh. Never struck me as the most clinical/composed finisher. This Werner news might also suggest that Ange wants to keep him on the right

                3. NATSTER
                  • 13 Years
                  3 months, 27 days ago

                  Thank you. I haven't checked his stats yet, but I think you have a good point on his conversion.

                  News of Werner also made it's hard to predict now.

                I always wonder how it must be to support a crappy championship team. How is it fun to watch less skillful players lose constantly and know they'll never make it to top of the league? I'm not saying we should be glory hunters just curious how it makes it exciting that's all

                  It's miserable most days. But, for me, supporting a team is less about how good/bad the team is at the present and more about the memories it can evoke. Helps me maintain a connection with my childhood in a way nothing else can.

                  Plus, regardless of how terrible a team is, one can always hope for a better future as a supporter!
