    How is it an OG if the header was on target?

    1. Scapegoat Salah

      I know joke of a game

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Did you see it?

        It was a dubious one at best but in any game I've played in that's off the keeper and an OG.

        I know we can split hairs on the rules differently here in fantasy land.

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

          Dubious yes, but then imo should give the benefit to the attacker if in doubt

          That has been an OG since football has been played and consistently would usually always be an OG. I am struggling to see the issue.

          It's not a slight deflection from outside the box. It's a complete change of direction.

      They saying it wasn’t on target. It was going across the goal, not into it.

      1. Random Name
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I've watched the gabriel goal in slow motion its definitely going in back post

    3. Merlin the Wraith

      Still showing as Gab goal on BBC & FPL

      1. Scapegoat Salah

        Lovely

    4. F4L

      opta guy captained palmer and has saliba

    5. Gubby-Allen
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      It was on target but hits Henderson and changes direction by 90 degrees and goes in. Obvious Henderson OG, if you would give the goal to the attacker for the same thing.

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

        Thought the rule was if it's on target it's not an own goal.

        1. Bluetiger1
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          I thought the same

    6. Flekken' Hell
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Then Gabby assist, right? I will take it too.

    7. GINI MINI MANE MO
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      What if Henderson had parried it with his hands trying to save it - own goal or not?

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

    Gabby no Saka. Probably works out better for me right?

  3. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Hearing it's officially an OG now and Gabriel assist.

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years

      thanks

    1. Random Name

      Yeah i don't know where people are getting "hendo OG" nonsense from

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Plenty saying it's been changed officially on Twitter etc.

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

        The commentators at the end of the half said it was given as an OG.

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

    Gabriel owner. Head to head captained Saka. Dream land

  6. teddypicker
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Gabriel owner and Saka non-capper. I probably get more points if it is an og

    1. xuwei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Interesting maths

      1. teddypicker
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Haha I mean a greater rank increase ofc

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

    Surely if there is any doubt (there is) you give the goal to the attacking player

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

      Precisely this, Hendo don’t want that against his name

    2. Flekken' Hell
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely. Putting an OG on a player with such slight margins when goal means more to the attacker should be awarded to the attacker. Win win for all.

      What are they doing there? Drawing lines across and measurements to check?! Ridiculous.

  8. F4L
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    jesus has dropped off so much. was borderline unplayable start of last season up until his first injury

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

      He over achieved back then. This is the real him.

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Arsenal need an out & out forward that will get 20 goals a season - Tony maybe?

      They create so many chances

  9. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Here it is

    It's a flat header so what will be will be

    All good for Gabriel owners

  10. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 2 months ago

    For everyone saying it’s an own goal now, Opta still have it as Gabriel goal + Saka assist, they’re FPL’s data source (could change).

    https://x.com/fplfocal/status/1748697619377861018?s=46&t=hAaaEgiQgheuiwBruEyFyw

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah

      Opta still crediting him

      They might clear it up in time

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

      Fingers cross Opta Intern is off sick with a hangover!

  11. Vinyl78LP
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Own Gabby and Saka (non captain), so with Saka's EO more than happy with an OG there. Still looked borderline without a definitive angle.

  12. Random Name
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    So now every goal that goes through the keeper's hands is an own goal?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      It came off the back of his head!!

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

        No difference

  13. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    If that ain't a Gabriel goal, then FPL rules mean f all and can be modified as per the towers wish.

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

      This.

      It can only be an OG if it wasn’t goal bound in the first place.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Which is the question...

        He's headed it parallel to the goal line and it's rebounded off the lower neck of Henderson.

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

          Not going to argue as ultimately it’s none of our decision, but I can’t see how that gets an OG when other attempts that have been deflected/hit people on the line don’t.

          It will be what it will be.

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

      Has nothing to do with FPL rules...

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Isn't it an FPL rule that a player gets awarded the goal if it's on target?

        1. x.jim.x
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          FPL don’t decide anything

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

          FPL don't decide what is a goal or an own goal, Opta and the Premier League do. FPL can't go against them and make their own determination.

  14. Ninja Škrtel

    A moment of silence for those who went for either Saliba/Zinchenko......

    ....

    ....

    oh well....GET IN!

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      still chance of clean sheet - 6 points

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

    Still 50/50 whether he keeps the goal/Saka keeps the assist.

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

      If i was a betting man, I’d say it could go either way Geoff

  16. df34
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    FPL do not help themselves sometimes by giving points and then taking them away, would prefer them to wait and be sure etc

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

      100% agree with this

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      yeah

      1. df34
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        It is like VAR in FPL

    3. teddypicker
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      They just take the data from Opta right

  17. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    If in the last 2 months you went for Saliba over Gabriel don't be mad it was always the wrong pick. They were both basically "nailed" and big price difference between both. Even if you could afford him at the time it was the wrong call because Gabriel is cheaper and you would have needed the money eventually

  18. Random Name
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Ball clearly out for Newcastle and West Ham's goals - "Not clear and obvious"

    Gabriel shot on target - "Clearly a henderson own goal, ball was definitely going out"

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Just watched replay and looked on target to me

  19. Merlin the Wraith
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I will not be happy losing 6pts to FPL's version of VAR ffs

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

    Saka got very dodgy A once when I didn't own him. Let us see what happens this time.

  21. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    The broadcasters, BBC and TNT are giving it as an OG. FPL Towers taking away my enjoyment of this game

    1. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      TNT just said it was a Gabriel goal

      1. Milk, 1 Šuker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        The first goal. The second came off his head. The anchor said as she was going to the break. I’m here in my local watching the match.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Hendo’s head

        Well...

        Ian Wright did unless I'm watching a different channel now!

    2. df34
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Website still showing it for me, who knows?

    3. Steamboat Willy Boly
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Bbc have it as a Gabriel goal

      1. df34
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Yep, unfortunately Sky are no longer showing it as Gabriel goal. They usually work in tandem with the FPL game which has me worried

    4. Steamboat Willy Boly
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Oh yeah it's changed

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      @FPLMate tweeted to FPL towers it's an own goal so they'll probably change it now

    I'll take the assist.

  24. x.jim.x

    Arsenal are starting the wrong Gabriel up front

    1. Bluetiger1

      (lol)

  25. F4L

    can palace at least score, come on lads

  26. The Mandalorian
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Gabriel's header was going in so isnt that a goal in FPL regardless of who it hits?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely- has to be Gabriel goal as on target

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Don't think it was

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Didn’t look like it was in target to me.

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

      The PL don’t believe it was going in if they’ve not given him the goal

    5. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      The replay showed it was on target.

  27. df34
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    SKY sports website have now changed it to Gabriel assist and Hendo OG

    True story from last night that genuinely 100% possibly happend ....Walked in to a social club last night hoping to hustle a few of the regulas at pool. Exactly as I opened the door to the bar my actual OR was shouted by a man with a microphone...I couldn't believe it...finally recognition...I raised my arms in joy, I patted my chest to show them respect and love, I even bowed. Then I suddenly realised I had only walked in on the domino card being called out. Utter devastation and embarrassment all in one swoop.
    Hoping for better luck today.

      Think FPL Towers need to listen more to these official stats
