      It also doesn't make sense when you say it wrong. Double stupidness

  2. Magic Zico

    This Rayan guy

    1. thegame983
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      He looks serious.

    2. Gizzachance

      2 in 2 now? Cheap two

    3. Biggsy

      Went Dango over Rayan. Great.

    4. F4L
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      looks like another player that will be taken from bournemouth in the not too distance future

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        1 month, 23 days ago

        *distant

    5. Fifa las vegas

      It was either him or Sarr that I was getting in for all players, Ndiaye.

      I trolled myself

  3. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Ooh I like that! Bust those Pickford + Tarkowski cleanies!

  4. FPL Blow-In

    Yuck. Palmer and Pedro killing me.

    Cool stat though

    Cole Palmer 4 PL hat tricks in 103 PL games
    Bukayo Saka 0 PL hat tricks in 216 PL games

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

      Saka peaked a few years back. Boring player now.

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Saka the 4 season wonder. A heartfelt adieu!

    3. Capocannonieri
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Saka is not a Penalty Hound like Palmer. They both take Pens but Chelsea is probably getting all the gamblers and nefarious referees.

  5. Mom, Butters just gave me a…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    1 month, 23 days ago

    Tarko & Pick blank again

  6. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 23 days ago

    Enzo close

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      I think he can be kept vs Burnley.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        1 month, 23 days ago

        No choice anyway...

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 month, 23 days ago

          -4 to sell for Palmer. But 3 pens isn't sustainable.

    2. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Close? It went out for a throw in

  7. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 month, 23 days ago

    My planned moves were Saka and DCL to Rayan and Gyokeres 🙁 maddening

  8. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 23 days ago

    Wilcard to get Palmer and Pedro?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Too late....

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 23 days ago

        This

      2. Capocannonieri
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        1 month, 23 days ago

        The good run of fixtures is almost over. True

  9. pundit of punts

    Leeds goal now would be welcome

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Their attacking threat that made me bench Chalobah... Apparently evaporated with DCL missing out

    2. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Timing

  10. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    1 month, 23 days ago

    3 pens in 2 games it's crazy....

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Silly pens too

    2. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      Insane luck. All penalties were braindead as well. in 2 games Palmer has gotten the 3 most stupid penalties of the entire season.

    3. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      We got Palmer because of them pens

    4. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 23 days ago

      It's bonkers, it's like match fixing

        Ah f**k off, why in in gods name did I get Sarr instead. If it wasn’t for that Burnley fixture I probably wouldn’t have 😡

        1. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 23 days ago
