  15. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

  17. wiseguy

    1. z13
      • 1 Year

  20. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years

    Mbeumo YC, 2/2 since I’ve owned him

  21. z13
    • 1 Year
    7 months, 19 days ago

    On FH i went Sarr over Mateta. Had both in non FH team and endured blanks. The stats said Mateta but for Sarr to haul the week I don't own after SIX weeks of pain would be too much.

  22. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

    Mbeumo has gone from essential to awful since I bought him

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 19 days ago

      Just a couple of more weeks

    2. Revival

      • 14 Years

      So you're the one who broke him then 🙂

    Play one

    1. Thiago away to Arsenal

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 19 days ago

      Looks really tired. Probably off at around 60 today. And similar midweek.

    Dear fellow FPL Managers thoughts on Goalkeeper replacement injured Pope (Dubravka on bench)

      Was pope actually injured though, or just dropped?

      1. Bluetiger1
        • 4 Years
        7 months, 19 days ago

        Thanks Z13

        Just seen midweek games & needed to cover as possibility if fit will not regain place - I hadheard injured

        but was a chance would have been dropped

        1. z13
          • 1 Year
          7 months, 19 days ago

          I think newcastle said he was injured to protect yes

  26. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

    All the players I owned that I felt could do well this week and therefore swayed my decision in keeping my FH until gw16 have blanked (so far) and been booked. Senesi yc, Semenyo yc, Mbuemo yc. Sarr, Mateta and Minteh next for yellows.

  27. F4L
    • 11 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

    so many shadows on the pitch

  28. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

    Only a matter of time at this point

  29. z13
    • 1 Year
    7 months, 19 days ago

    How many chances do Palace want before they score, says BBC live text.
    How many times can Sarr dodge points before he returns?

    1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 19 days ago

      United have higher xg so far. Both teams should probably have a goal each.

  30. F4L
    • 11 Years
    7 months, 19 days ago

    at least Sarr's ankle looks fine now
