      oh boy one of those weeks it seems, it happens, could do with a Pope pen save now to help me out, or Reijnders to buck his trend, even a Haaland (c) hat trick wouldn't help much

    • JBG
      • 7 Years

      Yeah time to sell, luckily had him when he was a differential and actually scored

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Brought him specifically for the matches he hasn’t scored. Brought Gordon in for all his blanks too but luckily sold him on WC at least

      Woltemade nearly 50% EO in top 10k and top 100k

      • 5 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Thankfully rolled again this week.

    • Royal5
      • 14 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Woltemade subbed? Ffs at least I don’t have to watch this crap

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        I mean it has been a good game aside from this

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          It’s still West Ham and Newcastle

    • LOS BLANCOS
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Gyok , Wolt and Gordon out at HT for me

      1. Not again Shirley
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        At least the former got 8 points so every cloud.

    • fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Got rid of Wolte to get Thiago this week full braced for pain, so was dreading this game. Phew!!

      1. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Great Reijnders benched! He was also moved out for the useless Sarr. Transfers out not hurting yet despite transfers in blanking.

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Except the transfer cost perhaps...

          1. fedolefan
            • 11 Years
            5 months, 13 days ago

            Was dreading the worst when both Sarr and Thiago blanked yesterday. So, I'll take the transfer cost. Hopefully get some price rises out of them two.

    • Manani
      • 14 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Who to get rid first?

      Gordon or Kudus?

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        -4 and get both out

    • g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Anyone swapping Woltemade back to Pedro for Wolves?

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Count me in

      2. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Nah.. JP went 8 games without a shot on goal. And Wolves with new manager

      3. Assisting the assister
        • 10 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Wolt and Gyok >Mateta and Pedro here

    • Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Newcastle aren't scoring here. Mark my words. Reminiscent of their other away games. No focal point and no creativity

    • Bigbars
      • 15 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Do we think, the Arsenal DEF bandwagon has much more steam to go?, i'm stubborn to fork out so much money on defence, eventually normal service will be resumed and the midfield big guns will start chipping in.. Fernandes and Salah I'm referring to you if you're reading lol. And the Semenyo bandwagon also, I'm loathe to get him, but he's killing my rank apart from the last two weeks...

    • Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Reijnders is benched

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        I've done some good transfers out lately, too bad the replacements haven't been any better 😛

        1. fedolefan
          • 11 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Same here.

        2. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          2 pts is a haul vs Reijnders;)

      2. Gizzachance

        5 months, 13 days ago

        Probably due one, his minutes were getting bit less to

    • PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Just when I thought I was out of taking HITS, they draw me back in!

      Woltemade, Salah, Reinildo, Trippier, Gudmundsson, Enzo. Which cherry shall I burst first?

            • 15 Years
            5 months, 13 days ago

      Gordon now last on my bench for GW11. At least he went up to 7.5 so I won’t lose value holding him one more week.

      Kudus to Rice is my first priority

    • Ask Yourself

      5 months, 13 days ago

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        He's only here because Wissa got injured.

    • g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Barnes warming up, at least he knows where the net is

    • Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      The only people who can say a single word about Raya as a bad Arsenal pick are the ones who have Gab, Timber and Rice in their own team. If you have Saka or Gyok, lol

    • Gizzachance
