        • 1 Year
        1 month, 16 days ago

        I know, wasn't meant to be taken seriously, just found it funny I had practically no players today. The one that played (and blanked) must be close to 90% EO anyway.

  13. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Just realized, I forgot to take the armband off of Rice!

    Thought I capped Haalan, forgot to press save!

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

    • 6 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Ndiaye stuck on 11 defcon for what felt like the entire second half! Last week it was 10…

  18. I have no Wirtz
      1 month, 16 days ago

      1. I have no Wirtz
          1 month, 16 days ago

          The guy has 11 points but gets sold off enough to drop?

        1 month, 16 days ago

        Any chance Chalobah and Tarkowski get upped from 9 to 10 def con when they do that recount thing or whatever it is? Happened to Timber once I believe

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years

        • 10 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        How would you fit Joao Pedro in here? No way he doesn’t score vs Burnley.

        Team:
        Verbruggen
        Gabriel Timber Munoz
        Bruno Mbuemo Enzo Sarr Rice
        Haaland Thiago
        (Areola Kroupi VDB Andersen)
        (1FT & 1.1itb)

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          You don't, unless you'll take a hit to cap him

          Verb to Kelleher

        2. Pep's Money Laundry
          • 10 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Thiago to Pedro

        3. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Thiago is the obvious one but feels a bit late now

      7. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        1. g40steve
          • 8 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          1. KeanosMagic
            • 4 Years
            1 month, 16 days ago

            In 31 I'd be benching Gabriel Rice and Haaland

          2. KeanosMagic
