    Bowen or Maddison? Not using FH. Already have Son & Porro.

    1. Sedemuda
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Madders has better fixtures after this week.

    2. Mozumbus
      • 4 Years

      Maddison

    Like the Forest double up with Elanga and Gibbs-White, might go there myself as well.

      Don't like the Fofana pick though, rather have Morris or Wood to come in for Watkins may he miss out.

          The template but a 352 with double Forest midfield.

    No Emery on the list but the same thing happened last week and he was belatedly added at his usual 2pm.

    Some FA Cup presser times too:

    9.30am - Howe
    12pm - Pochettino
    1pm - O'Neil
    1.30pm - Guardiola, Klopp, ten Hag

        Looks like the Emery one was pre-recorded and embargoed last night, so nothing fresh on Watkins:

    you’ll be fine fella, put a plaster on it and play on

  6. Feed tha Sheep

    Morning all!
    Anything worth a -4 here??
    (trying to get Haaland/Salah back in next 2 weeks)? **WC played already**

    A. Solanke > Muniz
    B. VVD > Udogie/Regulion

    Kaminski (Areola)
    Doughty Pau (VVD Gabriel Branthwaite)
    Bowen Son Maddison (Saka Foden)
    Toney Watkins (Solanke)

    1. Mozumbus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      A

  7. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Who do you guys like out of Toney and solanke for the rest of the season?

    I don’t have a wildcard so this is a move I’m considering this week to get to 10 players this week and hold Toney onwards

    I think as an asset generally I prefer solanke but Toney has the better of the run ins as well as an extra game, is either expected to double again?

    I also think Brentford have just come off a really bad run of fixtures and coming into some easier games now, could be set for some better returns

    What do you guys think?

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      It’s not based on any research but It think if any of the two is due to get a haul it’s Toney, plus you don’t have to worry about him missing a penalty.
      Return of Mbeumo might benefit him too.

      I’d go Toney myself but then again I’m not an expert so pls don’t hold me to it.

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Toney, better player

    3. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Bournemouth have the better immediate fixtures and a double at some point. Brentford have the better run-in. Both focal points, Solanke’s price and extra fixture maybe edge it.

    4. Onanawhatsmyname
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Look at Solanke’s form, it has not been good for FPL except for one or two games and Bournemouth have had a good run of games. Bournemouth have Chelsea, Villa, Utd and Arsenal in their last 9 games which will be tough so it is Toney for me.

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Have you seen toney’s form?

        5 blanks in last 7, other 2 were 6 pointers

        1. el polako
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          You need to consider the opposition that Brentford have faced - Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool.

          1. The Mentaculus
            • 4 Years
            1 year, 8 months ago

            I get the feeling people defending Toney like this havent been watching how he's been dropping deep & linking up play while the chances are falling to others (Wissa/Maupay). E.g. Brentford put up 1.83 xG v CHE but Toney's share was only 0.09

            1. el polako
              • 8 Years
              1 year, 8 months ago

              Not defending Toney, I’m not his wife nor solicitor.
              I just think that he is still a very good forward who has a game this week and favourable run in.

        2. Pipermaru
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          Bad form is bad until it isn't.

          1. el polako
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 8 months ago

            This, Bowen was in “bad form” until he popped 3 against Brentford.

    5. afsr
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      For me it's a question of getting Toney for GW29 for Solanke or not. I still have WC available, but if i sell Solanke now I'll lose 0.4 on him when getting him back on WC in 31.

  8. el polako
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Is it wise to go Wissa?

    1. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I might be going Toney and Wissa on FH, but its a gamble.

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        I already have Toney and 8 to field - non FH.
        Thinking about -4 to get in Wissa which at worst should only be -2 which is a risk I’m willing to take against Burnley.

        Will WC in 31 so can offload then.

        Other option is Muniz and his plum GW30 fixture.

    2. Steamboat Willy Boly
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Imagine going antonio against villas high line. The ultimate FH punt

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        He did look lively last night, question is will Moyes set up in the same way against Villa?
        Not so sure myself.

    3. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Think Brentford will go to a 433 for this game which puts Wissa on the wing which makes him less appealing imo

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Interesting, are you Brentford fan?

        1. Gazza2000
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          No, but but they often switch back to a back 4 against the "smaller" teams, check on sofascore the reverse fixture where they played a 433 as well.

          1. el polako
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 8 months ago

            Oh ok, that’s valuable input.
            Thanks pal!

          2. The Mentaculus
            • 4 Years
            1 year, 8 months ago

            They haven't used the 433 since the tonking v Wolves in December. Think its 352 in every game now

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Wissa was woeful when I owned him near start of season

  9. Punk as Fuchs
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Currently have (1FT, 0ITB, FH, BB and second wildcard intact):

    Areola
    Doughty - Taylor - Reguilon
    Son - Bowen
    Watkins

    Not playing:

    Dubravka
    VVD - Gabriel
    Gordon - Foden - Saka
    Haaland - Solanke

    Was thinking Gordon and Solanke > Maddison and Muniz for a -4, which would give me 9 (if Watkins plays). Could also FH, but hoping to hold really.

    What do we think? Any other suggestions?

    1. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Many on here happy with 5/6 attackers this week. Ultimately it’s hit(s) now and your team after the blank vs what you think FH is worth later

  10. focaccia
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Would you FH this team? Or take a hit to field 9?

    Areola

    Doughty / Reguillon / Taylor

    Bailey / Son (C)

    Watkins (v)

    Not playing : Johnstone / Ake / Gabriel / Palmer / Saka / Foden / Haaland / Solanke

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      FH in huge DGW surely results in more points than two extra players?

    2. Punk as Fuchs
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      We have essentially the same team and I'm also thinking the same thing! (see above comment)

      I think I am now leaning towards FH, but mostly because the person who is top of my main mini league is 30 points ahead of me in second place, and looking at their team, they are almost certainly going to FH. If I don't play it, they're only going to extend their advantage.

      1. g40steve
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Don’t forget when we get to 34 everyone will be pretty set up & fixtures not the best & any injury scares as we head for the finale.

      2. Rojo's Modern Life
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Poor logic. Unless your team is a total mess, your gain is in 10-20pt region. Play the FH in dgw34 to gain 7-8 extra doublers and easily exceed the 20pts ceiling.

        1. boc610
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          you cant say that for sure re 20 point ceiling. theres times ive played a FH in a double ive removed at least one SGW player who outscores 2 or 3 of the doublers. a FH forces you do you t o do that. addes to that theres so much time by then for people who dont have FH's to still have great teams in 34. and those who will play their BB .

          1. The Mentaculus
            • 4 Years
            1 year, 8 months ago

            Yup. Especially if you look at the specific "7-8 extra doublers" in 34 who are replacing Salah/Saka/Son/Haaland etc. I've tinkered with a FH34 team with 11 doublers & didn't like the look of it

  11. WVA
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    KDB Hwang Solanke to Son Bowen Toney -8?

    Areola
    Doughty Udogie Taylor
    Son Bowen
    Watkins Toney Morris
    Turner Saka Foden Palmer Gabriel Zabarnyi

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      That’s a tricky one, but probably yes

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Thanks mate, it's the Solanke to Toney move I'm most unsure on

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          I think it pays off

  12. The Parrot
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Best attack moving forward from GW30

    A)
    Playing 343 usually with the option of rotating in Garnacho
    1.7itb

    Salah, Saka, Foden, Palmer, Garnacho
    Haaland, Watkins, Solanke

    B)Playing 352 almost exclusively
    0.7itb

    Salah, Saka, Foden, Plamer, Son
    Haaland, Solanke, Muniz

    Essentially

    Watkins + Garnacho v Son + Muniz

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I’ll be going for B on my wildcard, probably with Semenyo or even cheaper if need be

  13. Patio Kev
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    As somebody on FH29 then I would dearly love Watkins to be out just for this Weekend simply because all those not on a FH are bound to own him and not have Subs whereas my Carlton Morris auto sub in my 3-5-2 formation will get me a massive extra 2 points.

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      🙂

    2. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Imagine relying on Taylor as one of squad

      1. TKC07
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Never know.. Taylor might outscore Porro this week..

        We have seen in the past.. Taylor delivers, only when he's the last hope.. lol.

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Duran 1st sub anyone?

  14. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Not using my free hit this week and will wildcard in 30.

    Going to do Solanke to Toney for free to field 11.

    Would you take -4 to do Gordon to Maddison? I would bench one of my defenders, who could be some security if Watkins or Reguilon miss out.

    A) Take the hit for Maddison
    B) Just do Toney

    1FT 11.5ITB
    Areola
    Doughty Kabore Reguilon Cash Robinson
    Son Bowen
    Watkins Morris

    Dubravka Saka Foden Gordon Solanke

    Cheers!

  15. boc610

    everyone worried about whether the top top scoring forward in the game plays or not and hoping he does so they can not captain him .

  16. dansmith1985
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Thinking of Foden and Saka out for a -4 to bring in Son and Kudus leaving me with 8 this week

    Areola
    Doughty Porro Taylor
    Bowen Son Kudus
    Watkins

    Good enough to avoid using FH?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I would say so

    2. Mozumbus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Yes
      Would prefer Maddison over Kudus

      1. dansmith1985
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Me too but I can’t afford. I could do Kulusevski instead of Kudus?

    3. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Yup

  17. Konstaapeli
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Got 2 players and one has flag, so will FH this week. Any big holes in this?

    Kaminski
    Porro - Doughty - Reguilon
    Son - Madders - Bowen - Kudus - Bailey
    Watkins - Toney

    Areola - Wissa - Cash - Robinson

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Difficult to pick two out of Kudus, Bailey and Wissa for the XI.

      Morris also in contention imo.

    2. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Nah, seems decent

    3. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I gone Sels/Elanga over Kaminski/Kudus, is your Captain Son or Madders

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Son

  18. FC Hakkebøf
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Pick two for my FH:

    Morris, Wissa, Kudus and Bailey

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Kudus & Bailey

  19. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    0ft and 10.4itb. Worth taking a hit anywhere? Will most likely wildcard in gw30 as I need Salah, Palmer, Haaland and sort out the defense asap.

    Kaminski
    Porro Doughty Pau Reguilon*
    Son Maddison Bowen Douglas
    Watkins* Morris

    Dubravka; Foden, Saliba, Solanke

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      No, think you’re in a great position there

  20. Malinwa
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Get Luis Douglas or Kudus in my FH team?

    1. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Luiz

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years

      Luiz - safe
      Kudus - fun

    3. Cojones of Destiny
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Luiz

  21. Warby84
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    Hudson-Odoi/Elanga dbl up myself although does MGW have penalty duties??

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Not sure, will he be on pens if Wood starts?

  22. Tonyawesome69
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    5th midfield spot in the likes of Kudus/Bailey/Elanga/MGW (352) feels more exciting than Morris (343) on FH

    1. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I’ve gone Elanga but 50/50 with Hudson Odoi for me.. Toss of a coun

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        CHO seems to get good mins when he starts. Elanga has better xG and xA per 90 data

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Kudus

      1. Cojones of Destiny
        • 7 Years

        appreciate reply below Tony

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Agreed haven't liked any 343 draft myself. Would play 361 if I could

  23. Cojones of Destiny
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 8 months ago

    was not planning to FH in 29 but may end up with 5 + 1 ft
    Areola
    Doughty, Emerson*
    Son, Bowen, Barkley,
    Watkins*

    what to do
    a. Use FT and a hit on attacker to get 7
    b. FH

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      A

    2. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      B for me

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Who are the planned transfers this GW if you savw FH? What's the chip strategy beyond 29? Also post your full team including blankers to see who you could potentially sell.

      1. Cojones of Destiny

        Barkley, Son, Bowen/(Palmer, Saka)
        Watkins*,/(Haaland, Solanke)

        Its all about my main ML where Im second atm and everyone around me will play their FH, chip strategy - better planning ahead

          Given Watkins and Emerson are ok to start was planning to do just Solanke to Muniz, and bowen to Salah straight swap in 30

            Ideally would want to keep FH for 34/37.

            Not sure who you could sell to setup long term and bring in Spurs (only team that has a fixture in 29 and double later). I like the Muniz/Salah combo.

    Link to DGW 34 fixtures? Trying to plan WC team

      just search up Ben Crellin. He has the sheets available but I'd wait until next week to start planning since this weekends FA cup fixtures will play a huge role

    I think I'll do Estu, Saka to Porro, Son (-4) which gives me:
    Flekken
    Doughty Porro
    Son Barkley Luiz
    Watkins Toney

    Any of these worth another -4?
    A) Foden to Madison
    B) Foden to Bowen
    C) Semenyo to Munoz
    D) Semenyo to Fofana

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      tough to say for sure but I think getting Bowen is worth it

      Very difficult to give an answer without knowing how you plan to navigate GWs beyond 29 and what chips you have left

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Was trying to keep it simple, but fair enough. I have my WC but have enough money itb to bring in Salah for Barkley in 30 and Haaland for Watkins in 31

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 6 Years
          1 year, 8 months ago

          Maddison fits the bill with a double later and doesn't impact when to WC

            Cheers mate

    Am I GTG with this team or should I FH?

    Areola
    Porro/Doughty/Taylor
    Bowen/Son
    Watkins

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      FH or needs another a couple more attackers

    On a FH. Morris, Kudus or Elanga?

    1. Sho-kun
      • 8 Years

      Kudus

    2. Bavarian
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      Morris

  28. Rhodes your boat

    Solanke to Toney and play with 9? 1FT 9.6itb

    Areola
    Porro Doughty reguilon
    Son(c) Bowen
    Watkins morris

    Kelleher Ake saliba Saka palmer foden solanke

    1. Sho-kun
      • 8 Years

      yes

    2. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 8 months ago

      I'd rather do Saka -> Maddison. I'd rather have Solanke against Everton in gw30 than Saka against City when Maddison is playing Luton.

      1. Rhodes your boat
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 8 months ago

        Cheers food for thought

      2. waltzingmatildas

        Yeah I agree

    Good enough to avoid using my FH?

    Areola
    Doherty, Kabore
    Son, Maddison, Bowen
    Morris, Watkins, Toney

    1. aapoman
      • 12 Years

      yes
