    Palmer or Haaland for captain ?

    1. Radulfo28773
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Palmer

      1. Maddamotha
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Haaland

      2. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
        • 1 Year
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Palmer has the easier fixture

        1. HelmutCool
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Notthingham is easier than Fulham? Even at best.

        2. chilli con kone
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Totally disagree with this

    2. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Haaland

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Palmer because it's the fun choice.

    Had an awful start for the season.
    WC on GW 4 and it didn’t help…
    Willing to take a hit to gain momentum.
    What would you do here?

    Raya
    TAA Robo Pau Rico
    Salah Semenyo Saka Rogers
    Haaland DCL

    Fabianski Pedro Greaves Winks

    A. Robo & Semenyo to Mbeumo & Mikolenko (-4)

    Top 5 assets to own on WC in Gameweek 7?

    1. Joyce1998
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Haaland, Palmer, Saka, Solanke, Gabriel/ Ars defence or Havertz if you prefer double attack.

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      palmer havertz gabriel would be top 3 imo

  5. Joyce1998
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Haaland, Palmer, Saka, Solanke, Gabriel/ Ars defence or Havertz if you prefer double attack

    1. Joyce1998

      reply fail

  6. Chelsea Dagger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I've got a similar debate ... Diaz and Gabriel to Foden and Van de Ven. Have two FTs so no hit, but just not sure. This doesn't seem to be the year for clean sheets, so maybe worth it. But Gabriel does have SOU home up next. hmmm ....

    Thoughts?

    1. lekalatch
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Wouldnt get Gabriel out for SOU

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      its the season for arsenal clean sheets, wouldnt do it

    3. Tommy Template
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      The way teams play out from the back now, the attitude towards 'risk' in defence means I'm not sure there will ever be a year for clean sheets again. That has been compounded from an FPL perspective by the changes to bonus. If you dont clean you are very unlikely to be in the bonus. See James Justin this week for prime example. But we have to pick 5 regardless and we have to play (at least) 3 and the gap betweeen the best and worst will be vast. Above all else you want defenders you are happy to play most weeks and not to be wasting transfers back there.

      No chance I’d be selling Gabriel

    Why may Diaz not start?
    Thanks

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years

      Gakpo

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      its likely he starts
      people want to find a way/excuse to get palmer

    3. ball c
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      He should start.. played 70 mins mid week. Plus international break coming up so Slot has no reason to rest him. Problem is he may only get 70 mins again. But a brace would be nice

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        The fact that he was taken off has to bode well for a start, also, if Gakpo was such a threat, he would have been in a long time ago.

        1. bso
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years

          Totally agree with you mate. I'm holding him. Have Palmer but no Saka...fingers crossed.

  9. FDMS All Starz

    Would you do this for a -4? Will play WC in GW12

    TAA & Eze ——> Mykolenko & Foden

    1. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’d wait a week and not take the hit

    2. HelmutCool
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Playing wc gm12 myself and moving on Foden at some point. But am not gonna take a hit for him before I seem him start...
      So basically getting him gw8or9

    Surprised by this comment in the article

    'Because whatever we do, it will never be possible to own all of Palmer, Erling Haaland (£15.3m), Mohamed Salah (£12.7m), Bukayo Saka (£10.1m) and Ollie Watkins (£9.1m). You’ll always miss out on two or three of them.'

    Like many others on here I have 4 of those 5 (I'm missing Salah) and that's despite also having two premium defenders TAA & Gabriel as well.

    1. _Freddo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      So you’ve proved the point to be correct.

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        But I get what you’re saying, I listened to a pod saying that it would be impossible to own Salah, Saka, Haaland & Trent, think it was Pras, I had all 4 but tbh, I hated it & soon moved off.

        It’s not impossible, they just either couldn’t figure it out or didn’t like what they figured out.

      2. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        How have I proved the point? Article states 'You’ll always miss out on two or three of them.', I'm only missing one of those 5 players.

    2. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I definitely think teams going without Haaland over the season will be better than with. If he’s the one you go without you can have get nearly all the big hitters. Until palmer hit 4 goals there was a lot of people choosing to go without him and were making up reasons not to have him (like tough fixtures or Chelsea share goals around) . If the other big hitters continue to flourish then owning Haaland in my belief becomes harder

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        We can’t really judge if it’s the right approach in a freak week where Palmer scored 4 goals.

        No one was thinking this when Haaland was getting back to back hatricks, recency bias is always dominant in these sort of arguments.

        I started with just Haaland and flew out of the blocks, when I lost my nerve and added Salah I dropped hard, I don’t think that can be blamed on owning Haaland or owning Haaland being wrong, my team with him and only him had a really strong spread, it’s an issue of captaincy, all the premiums are good but the priority pick has to be the one you chose to C the most.

        1. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
          • 1 Year
          1 year, 2 months ago

          All good points , agreed. It’s not with or without Haaland as the only question. There will be plenty picking the other parts of the squad well with or without Haaland and ultimately that’s what will determine success

        2. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
          • 1 Year
          1 year, 2 months ago

          However you could argue even by haalands standards 10 goals in 5 games was a bit of a freak. Admittedly less freaky than 4 goals for palmer (both players have a large sample size of being big points scorers and very similar to the frequency of these scores)

          1. _Freddo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            1 year, 2 months ago

            Is it though? He was silly in his first season, this feels like he’s back at that level.

            If Havertz was scoring at that rate I’d agree but Haaland is 15m because he’s proved he has that in him.

            1. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
              • 1 Year
              1 year, 2 months ago

              Haaland is a goal a game man so against the aside opposition I suppose it’s not that freakish that he averages 2 goals a game at this stage. I may have it all wrong and will lose out too much to Haaland most weeks.

              1. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
                • 1 Year
                1 year, 2 months ago

                Sorry meant to say against easier sides not asides *

      2. chilli con kone
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        You would have to nail most captaincies vs the robot that everyone else will captain its not worth the constant anxiety

        1. Frank Bruno Guimaraes
          • 1 Year
          1 year, 2 months ago

          I would say that don’t be blinded by Haaland though , palmer is a rare player who may be capable to keep up with his scores .

    3. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I'm rank 33k and had only 4 of them switching and swapping every time. No premier defenders bar Robbo

      1. Kaneyonero
        • 9 Years

        Premium

      2. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        That is exactly my point. The article states 'You’ll always miss out on two or three of them' you are only missing out on one of those five and have an excellent rank for this stage of the season. Congrats

    4. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      It's possible, you just need a horrorshow defence and someone like Dibling starting every week

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Bar starting Mykolenyo this week I'm pretty happy with the rest of my team. DCL has great fixtures and the 3 cheap mids are in form and rotate well.

        Flekken (Valdimarsson)
        TAA, Gabriel, Mykolenyo (Aina, Greaves)
        Saka, Palmer, Carvalho, Rogers (ESR)
        Haaland, Watkins, DCL

        1. bitm2007
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          and if I need to upgrade any of the front 8 the luxury pick of TAA can become Konate.

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

          You don’t have Salah though which was the point

    5. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      It’s just a typical non-comment by another content creator and the same logic that caused them to miss Haaland’s start

  11. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    1FT. Henderson > Flekken. There's surely some Brentford cleanies in their next 5 games, right?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I think so

    2. Captain Mal
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Brentford defense has looked far from inspiring so far (believe it or not Henderson has outscored Flekken up to this point) and I definitely wouldn't waste a transfer on a GK.

    3. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Keeper transfers can troll you hard personally I would just stick it out

  12. Captain Mal
    • 1 Year

    Sels
    Trent Gabriel Porro
    Saka Mbeumo Eze Rogers
    Haaland Solanke Welbeck

    Slicker L. Davis Harwood-Bellis Smith Rowe

    1 free transfer
    1.5 m in the bank
    Haven't played my wildcard yet

    Any glaring issues or just roll?

    1. chilli con kone
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Looks good to save

  13. chilli con kone
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    A. Mbuemo + 1.9m
    B. Foden

    On wildcard. Brentford attacking data since Wissa got injured hasn’t been great

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A for this GW

  14. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Any Havertz owners? Worried he might be tested after playing 90 min?

    1. _Freddo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No an owner but no chance of that happening.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Nah, lots of players played 90 minutes for Champions league sides. There is a International break coming up so wouldn't benefit Arsenal if he is rested this weekend anyways.

    3. HelmutCool
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Wouldnt. I dont think he has missee a minute this season. Seems to be a fit fellah.

  15. Threat Level Midnight
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Thought on these moves for free?

    Jota/Porro/Joao Pedro/Johnson>>Foden/Rico Lewis/4.5 Striker/Greaves

    Gives me
    Henderson
    TAA/Saliba/Lewis
    Foden/Saka/Palmer/ESR/Rogers
    Haaland/Wood

    Turner/Greaves/Harwood/Wolves 4.5 Striker

    Greaves would be my cover for Lewis

    1. HelmutCool
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Who covers if Foden doesnt start?

      1. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I don't worry about things that are unlikely. Lewis is the only likely one to not get gametime. KDB out and Foden is back fully fit as shown midweek.

        1. Pukki Party
          • 8 Years

    1. Revival

      1. Pukki Party

        Saka C Palmer VC currently

  17. Dynamic Duos

    Thoughts on this draft please?

    Raya
    Gabriel Gvardiol Lewis
    Palmer Mbeumo Johnson Rogers
    Haaland Havertz Solanke

    4m VDV Nouri Dibling

    Thanks

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years

      Not a huge fan of Rogers as 7th mid/rotating with def for 4ATB

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Looks good are you planning to play Raya & Gabriel during Arsenal's upcoming run of red fixtures or use your bench?

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Raya play every week, but there is a couple of capable defenders on bench

    3. Mom, Butters just gave me a…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      One week too late

  18. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Play 1 out of these 3

    A. Eze vs LIV(H)
    B. Welbeck vs TOT(H)
    C. Davis vs WHU(A)

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B. Plus easier to bench Eze if you own TAA or Robbo

    2. Captain Mal
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I have all three in my team, I will play Davis and play the other two. If I had to choose only one, I'd probably play Welbeck. Brighton look in much better shape than Palace and Spurs' defence isn't exactly great.

      1. Captain Mal
        • 1 Year
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Meant to say bench Davis, not play

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Welbeck

    4. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Welbeck. More attacking team and Spurs aren't great defensively.

  19. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best 4.5 defender

    Colwin
    VDV
    Aina
    Konsa
    Davis?

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      *Colwil

    2. Captain Mal
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      What's the rest defence like? Do you want him for every game or rotation?

    3. F4L
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      davis

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Maybe add Ait Nouri

    5. Jrot94

    Evening All. How does this wildcard team look? Thanks in advance:

    Flekken - Fabianski
    Gabriel - Lewis - van de Ven - van den Berg - Greaves
    Salah - Palmer - Mbeumo - Rogers - Dibling
    Haaland - Havertz - Ndiaye

    1. Jrot94

      My draft is below...

      1. I went Saka over Salah,
      2. Which gets me Raya over Flekken; a playable 5th MF (McNeil); better 3rd striker (I went Vardy, but many to choose from) and an extra 0.5 for defense so I didn't have to have two 4.0s

      personally I think that's worth it when I'm going to captain Haaland basically every week

      1. Boleyn Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks for the suggestions. I suppose the reason I've had Salah instead is that I don't feel like there is anyone better to get from Liverpool. Whereas Havertz could keep up with or outscore Saka for Arsenal.

        I would prefer not to have double £4m defenders and a £4.5 so I do see the value in the saving by having Saka instead.

        A lot for me to think about before Saturday!

    (A) roll
    (B) Garnacho to Martinelli/Trossard
    (C) Martínez to Raya

    WC in pocket

    this WC team has stayed for about 24 hours...

    Raya 4.0
    Gabriel Lewis VdB (RAN Davis)
    Saka Palmer Mbeumo Rogers (McNeil)
    Haaland Solanke Vardy

    Still chewing

    A. Davis/McNeil (and having an 8th attacker to rotate with Vardy/Rogers)
    B. Porro/4.5 MF (defense upgrade but no bench)

    feels like some depth is the smart play? any thoughts?

    1. Make FPL Casual Again
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I'd downgrade 8th attacker, funds to defence. McNeill playable every gw

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Prefer 4.0m 5th def/3rd bench and use/bank the 0.5m

  29. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is Brennan Johnson being overhyped?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Based on what?

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        He heard me and scored haha

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No given he just scored a good goal again

      1. Tommy Template
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        One thing that does seem to be overlooked a bit is his minutes. He wouldn't be on the pitch at this stage of a league game. Maybe hes done some damage already if he started but some games hes only getting two thirds. That's not ideal when you think people are selling Jota and getting shifty over Diaz for the same rationale.
