    Gameweek 5 looks like a great week to save a transfer, might save you a GW6 WC.

      Nah. Need max impact from wc. No point delaying for me

      Fair point

      I think Walkers should re-introduce Tazos.

        kids wouldnt be interested... not ADHD friendly enough

    The wildcard drafts I’ve seen seem to be:

    overrating Brighton - triple Brighton with Verbruggen/Dunk, Minteh and Pedro will backfire when fixtures turn.

    Leaving too much money on bench - planning to rotate the likes of Rogers, Semenyo, Joao Pedro, alongside multiple 4.5 defenders is guaranteed to leave points on the bench and make it difficult to reallocate funds for premiums

    Relying on weak 4.5 defenders with little upside - Konsa/Pau, Dunk, Martinez, VdV have little attacking threat and play for shaky defences. At least Robinson, Davis have assist potential

    Thinking Robbie can cover TAA - XGI is way higher from TAA who is posting stats at elite midfielder levels compared to Robbie who’s playing as a third CB. When TAA hauls, Robbo owners will be crying.

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

      all you said there could be summed up in one sentence - "none of the wildcards have trent which is the only player I want in a WC"

    2. Dragon Arcana
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 7 months ago

      Agree on Brighton

      Disagree with everything else. Squad depth more important this season to allow transfer rolls.

      No one thinks Robbo can cover Trent. Don’t think anyone’s making that argument. It’s a compromise to allow for an upgrade elsewhere.

    3. JIMMY TUGGINS

      What are these drafts?

      • Over Midwicket
        • 14 Years

        Disagree completely

      • MJF
          1 year, 7 months ago

          A perfect team doesn't exist within the budget we have, so I suppose every wildcard team will have compromises.

        • St Pauli Walnuts
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          My WC draft has Robinson, Davis, TAA and single Brighton.

      • Cabellafan
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        What do you think of this a little different WC team?

        Sanchez - Fab
        Konsa - Robinson - TAA - HB- Greaves
        Salah - L.Diaz - Bowen - Rogers - Winks
        Haaland - Isak - J.Pedro

          Isak on wildcard is a bit mad

          1. Cabellafan
            • 11 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            swap to Havertz gw6 or Watkins as needed

            1. Dragon Arcana
              • 13 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              Just go Watkins now? Lovely fixture

                  • 8 Years
                  1 year, 7 months ago

                  could have said the same about the last game - guy is just not in form - play the player not the fixture

                  1. JIMMY TUGGINS
                    • 7 Years
                    1 year, 7 months ago

                    He scored 3 in his last 2 games

                      1 year, 7 months ago

                      brother.... what are you talking about? we talking about watkins here

              2. Cabellafan
                • 11 Years
                1 year, 7 months ago

                Maybe, but already got Rogers and Konsa and he is yellow flagged.

      • Runnerboy31
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        Agree with almost all of this - I think iou could debate with the 4.5 defender overreliance but agree with the rest. Where this notation came from that Brighton have good upcoming fixtures I have no idea.

        1. Studs Up
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Next 6... 4 home fix are winnable. Both Che and New away ain't a train smash either.

          1. Runnerboy31
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            Chelsea A, Spurs H, Newcastle A.

            I accept none of these are City, Arsenal, Liverpool, but very few fixtures are.

            Feels a bit reverse engineered logic to say they are actively good fixtures. I remain over the view a lot of people are going to be very underwhelmied in particular by Pedros upcoming points.

      • The butts
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        I am trying to get Salah into my team. To do this, I've two options to enable this:

        Option 1. Onana and Isak
        Option 2. Diogo and Pedro

        Which is best combo for the next 3 to 4 fixtures

        1. Dragon Arcana
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          2 easily

        2. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          2

      • Big Sam Time
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        Hi everyone, so I have 1ft and 2.1itb , I was guna wc, but feel my team is overall good, any ideas?

        Henderson
        Taa, Andersen, Davis
        Saka, esr, Jota, madueke, Rogers,
        Haaland, isak

        Bench, slicker, wood, porro, greaves

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Team looks good for this week. Only problem is GW5 captain.

        2. Dragon Arcana
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Roll

          1. Big Sam Time
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            GW 5 is the problem

            1. Dragon Arcana
              • 13 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              You’ll have 2 transfers

              1. Big Sam Time
                • 8 Years
                1 year, 7 months ago

                True, il need to get salah,

      • dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        Porro and Gabriel against each other- which one would you start?

        1. Dragon Arcana
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Gabriel every day. I’ve got a bit of a mental block on Porro and Spurs in general

        2. Shteve
          • 16 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Gab

        3. Tazah
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          depends on the type of player you are - Gabriel higher chance of clean sheet, Porro gamble of a goal or assist + no cleansheet
          I would go porro for the higher ceiling

          1. Sir Michael Taker
            • 11 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            I'd be with Porro too because I think they'll both score. Saying all of that there's something in the back of my mind that is telling me Spurs aren't great at defending set pieces and balls into the box. I recall quite a few occasions last season where Vicario got himself into a right state in the air so perhaps the goal threat is not that bad from Gabriel.

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

              yes that is also a strong possibility - Arsenal will 100% score in my opinion, just depends on who

      • Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 7 months ago

        Hall and Quansah not nailing down their spots has ruined my start. Get players who are absolutely nailed, lesson learned.

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Add Nkunku and Solanke :/

        2. Fitzy.
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          And don’t expect 4.5m defenders to be the difference between a good and bad start, regardless of how nailed on they are.

          1. Bobby Digital
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            Rather using transfers on putting out fires is the problem. Unless you just leave the 4.5m defenders and concentrate on other parts of your team

        3. james 101
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          Many others made the same choice mate. Don’t worry about it

        4. MJF
            1 year, 7 months ago

            The problem is next July / early August there'll be five or six players all the content creators and what have you will be pushing.

        5. Tazah
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 7 months ago

          I have a really good feeling about adama traore this season - he definitely has more potential for points than rogers and onana at the same price point

          1. Dragon Arcana
            • 13 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            Think I prefer Rogers but he’s not a bad pick

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

              Rogers also has the risk of champions league rotation

          2. MJF
              1 year, 7 months ago

              Certainly than Onana, but Rogers looks a player. Traore's got a proven track record of having very poor output. Feels like a toss up to me.

          3. Tazah
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            just a side note with everyone getting hyped up about lpool defence - rotation is an eventuality with the champions league coming into play - especially this year with 2 more games this year - surely you would be less annoyed with konate being benched than trent (as konate is unlikely to be coming on 60 min into a game, but trent could) and plus you could use the extra 2mil for a major boost somewhere else.

            1. Sir Michael Taker
              • 11 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              The truth is we don't know how Slot will manage the team and the rotation. I'll wait and see what happens and deal with it then if there's a pattern emerging. Bradley is very capable, Tsimikas probably less so, perhaps makes Robertson the safer pick? But I'd rather take Alli than Konate if it was just for the cleans as he won't get rotated.

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

                agree with all of this, well said

          4. Cheeky Onion
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            A) Palmer & Jota

            B) Salah + ESR

          5. BlzE_94
            • 11 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            Which players should I look to bring in from gw 6/7 onwards?

            Raya
            TAA Robinson Faes
            Salah Palmer ESR Rogers
            Haaland Havertz Pedro

            Fabianski Winks Greaves Keane

            1. Tonyawesome69
              • 7 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              Arsenal and Brentford players

            2. LC1
              • 11 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              Wissa / Mbuemo / Saka / Ars Defence

          6. TitusShambles
            • 10 Years
            1 year, 7 months ago

            Should I WC this team this week ?

            Henderson
            TAA - Gabriel - Robinson
            Saka - Eze - Jota - Rogers
            Isak - Haaland - Muniz

            Valdimaarson - ESR - Quansah - B. Johnson

            obvious omission is Salah - 2FTs and £1m ITB.
            Only way to get him is to lose a premium and I don't fancy it.
            May even go without Salah for both 4 & 5 and not WC in 6

            1. Kingy109
              • 4 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              Your team is similar to mine and I want to wait and see fixtures swing, Champions League etc. Long wait to 2nd WC

              My decision next week looks like being Salah and ESR or Saka and Jota/Diaz. The former means WC 6 likely, the latter means 3 Arsenal by GW6 with transfers but no clear Captain in GW5.

            2. Rasping Drive
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              1 year, 7 months ago

              No, I wouldn’t. I would, however, sell Saka to get Salah.
