  10. Biggsy

    • 11 Years

    Everton up to sixth...

  11. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Only silver lining of the evening so far is Keane still has his CS in tact.

  12. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Senesi has to keep relying on defcon !

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Bournemouth had decent fixtures previously & owning Senesi & Petrovic was infuriating

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      not even getting it today 😥

      whats happened to him, last 4 GWs slowing down on the defcon front

  13. Jet5605

    Willock non TC'ers mudded

    1. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

  15. bso

    Rice or Rogers for Mbeumo?

    1. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Rogers at this point surely. I'll probably be doing Rice -> Rogers this gw

    2. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Rice

    3. bso

      Thanks guys

    Spurs getting relegated would be so good 😆

    ramsey a

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years

      Disallowed offside

  18. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Enzo will get the Burnley game for me and then he'll probably be sold. Can't have him taking up a valuable midfield slot.

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Ndiaye or someone else instead?

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        23 days, 22 hours ago

        Wilson or Dango

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          23 days, 22 hours ago

          Yeah it'll probably be one of those two. Wilson from GW28 looks nice.

    2. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Enzo -> Dango in gw28

  19. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Enzo is such a poor pick. Never again.

  20. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Enzo wins throw in on half way line and celebrates. Get in my son.

  21. OneTeamInBristol

    Var continues to destroy football. Newcastle goal should had stood.

    1. MarcusAurelius
      • 10 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      His right eyebrow was offside. Hard to disagree with that

  22. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Lol, both Woltemade and Wissa who barely get game time as is, have been dropped so that perennial goals imminent grifter Gordon can play as striker.

  23. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Leeds need to change something for the second half, or this match is gone

  24. Fifa las vegas
    • 13 Years
    23 days, 22 hours ago

    Ugh, guaranteed Sarr troll job after I ditch Ndiaye for him

  25. F4L

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Damn on my bench 🙁

  26. Moon Dog
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Hasn't Pedro usually been subbed off by now? 😛

      1. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        23 days, 22 hours ago

        He can sub after his next goal and assist

    • brianutd-why always we? 20

      Thiaw you belter

    • Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Thiaw is on for another 17 pointer by the looks of things... He's one of the strangest picks this season. He keppt getting 1s for me except for the single 17 pter.

    • Tic Tacs
      • 6 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Nearly ditched Ndiaye for Rayan, wow that would’ve hurt! Ndiaye already on 7 defcon, lovely differential

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        23 days, 22 hours ago

        Oh yeah he was a defcons monster before afcon wasn't he!

      2. Fifa las vegas
        • 13 Years
        23 days, 22 hours ago

        Why didn’t I just stick it out.

        At least Sarr could still go mental I guess

    • Effe
      • 15 Years
      23 days, 22 hours ago

      Isn’t it about time Tarkowski bundled in a goal… usually gets one a season
