    2. Brazooka
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Just roll imo

  8. BR510
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Best def and mid for combined 10.1 million?

    1. Wilson and Rodon (have Alderete and Hill)
    2. Rayan Mukiele (have Alderete)
    3. Stach and Oreilly
    4. Other suggestions?

    1. Percy07
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      I would go for C

  9. Percy07
    • 7 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    I have midfield of -
    Palmer, B. Fernandez, Rogers, Enzo and Rice.
    Should I try to get Semenyo or save a transfer? I have 2M in bank.

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Yeah for Rice

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        Yep

  10. Scotty Dog
    • 7 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Noticed alot of people in the comments either selling timber to vvd or starting a Sunderland defender instead of him. Have I missed something?

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Most have double/ triple defense. Sunderland is good at home

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      I would start Timber over Hill and Mukiele etc.

    3. Steavn8k
      • 3 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      People are just fed up with him I believe, and a tiny roumer that White might start. I'll start him over Mukiele and Senesi though.

    4. Conners
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      I doubt so many would be making the switch if VVD hadn't got a one-off score last week.

      Prior to that, he was ranked approx 20th among defenders for total points scored, and behind Konate on PPG.

    5. Scotty Dog
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Cheers all.

    6. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Timber sucks. Muk has more points potential with DC

  11. -GK22-
    • 14 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Start Rice or Summerville

    1. Scotty Dog
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Rice

    2. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      S

  12. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Playing Kelleher, Gabriel, VVD and Mukiele.

    Play one of:

    A) Timber
    B) LeFee

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      B

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Easy A

    3. Brazooka
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      A

  13. Snoop Udogie Dogg
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    morning guys, what should I do?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Captain Cole Palmer

      1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
        • 5 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        good idea

  14. Evasivo
    • 16 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Which to bench?

    A) Chalobah
    B) Mukiele

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      B

    2. Steavn8k
      • 3 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Muk. One last shot for Chalobah

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      A

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • 10 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        I mean play Trevoh

    4. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Thanks all!

  15. Miguel Sanchez
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Currently playing Guehi over Hill, any logical reason I should swap them over?

    A) Guehi (NEW)
    B) Hill (whu)

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Yeah my gut says the same, Bournemouth's away at West Ham, who's found their form again.
      City's gotten better at the back.

    2. Brazooka
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      A

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Easily play guehi

    4. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      A for me

    5. HODGE
      • 12 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Prob not

  16. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Correct three defenders starting here?
    I think all those defenses will concede.

    Gabriel Chalobah Muñoz (Mukiele Guehi)

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Odds yes, rather play Guehi ownership

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Correct - could almost Bench Boost those other two

    3. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      correct

    4. Drosiah
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Close but I would say correct

    5. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Thanks all!

  17. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
    • 15 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Start Saliba or Cash?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Cash

  18. FC Hakkebøf
    • 9 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Is is crazy to captain Haaland when I have Palmer?

    I feel like having Palmer is enough of a differential and Haaland could hurt my rank badly.

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Palmer differential

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      L mindset. You've got the best captain pick this week, you put the armband on him.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Haaland has only scored one in 9 games vs Newcastle. Focus on the positives of a potential Palmer haul and Haaland blank instead.

  19. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Last 2 benched or play Timber will the sales?

    Gabriel, Guehi, Muki, Timber, Hill

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      As is, or possibly swap order on Timber and Hill

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      As you are, bench Timber and Hill

    3. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Chew

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        FFS AC Cheers

  20. seanm92
    • 4 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    G2G with this team? Tempting to make 3 FTs and bring Palmer in but is it pointless for essentially one fixture?

    Sanchez
    Gab Chalobah Munoz (Alderete Timber)
    Enzo Rice Semenyo Bruno (Wilson)
    Haaland Thiago JSL

    Could do Rice, Timber Wilson for say Palmer Dango and Hill…

    Thanks!

    1. seanm92
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      *Enzo out not Rice

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Everyone avoided Palmer previously got to stage he was destroying non owners weekly?

  21. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Bench v starters dilemma is crazy close. Any views? Need 2 starters, at least in defence.

    A. Alderete (Ful)
    B. Andersen (sun)
    C. Hill (whu)
    D. Wilson (sun)
    E. Anderson (Liv)

    Models basically shrug if you ask so it's a tricky one.

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Fwiw I do think West Ham will score, good form etc.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        Look at Bournemouths form and Hills. Guaranteed defcons even if they do concede.

        Play Alderete and Hill if you must play two defenders.

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 months, 28 days ago

          It meant to say at least 1 in defence there actually. Oops.

          Thanks.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      CD

      1. Sir Michael Taker
        • 12 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        I think its a bad fixture for D and hes the most likely to blank despite him being the only true attacking option. The rest of them probably defcon and I'd pick two of the defenders on the basis that Forest will concede so E. Anderson is most likely 4pts floor and ceiling. Defenders could be 4pts if they concede once and defcon but could be 8 or more if they clean. They arent bad fixtures for any of the defenders

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 months, 28 days ago

          Alderete has been woeful for defcon but feels most likely for a clean.
          I'm surprised at the Hill love. He's great but I'd say he's most likely to concede of the defenders.

  22. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    I have no City or Chelsea. Who would you put the armband on? Salah, Fernandes and Thiago all in contention

    Kelleher
    Gabriel, VVD, Cash, Alderete
    Salah, Saka, Bruno, Rogers
    Watkins, Thiago

    Verbruggen, DCL, KDH, Keane 1ft 0itb

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Bruno or Thiago for me

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 28 days ago

        Thank you

  23. AppleDunk
    • 12 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Crazy to start Hill over Timber?

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      No

    2. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Not crazy, but don't think west ham away is a good fixture. So I'd start Timber.

  24. Drizzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Morning. Start one:

    A) Andersen (sun)
    B) Hill (whu)
    C) Anderson (LIV)

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years

      B

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years

        BCA in that order for me

        1. Drizzle
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 2 Years
          5 months, 28 days ago

          Cheers, weirdly my order currently is exactly the opposite! It's close this one.

      B

  25. Podorsky
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Start Holl or Cash

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Hill

  26. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 13 Years
    5 months, 28 days ago

    Start Hill or Anderson?

    1. Home Late From Age
      • 10 Years

      Hill

    2. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Similar to my question above. Anderson I think. But it's close.

  27. Home Late From Age
    • 10 Years

    Who to play? Pick one

    A. Richards (WOL)

  29. Count of Monte Hristo

    Currently starting Timber in a back 4.

    Keep him or start one of my bench instead?

    Anderson DCL Andersen

    1. Timmyj
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 28 days ago

      Feels like many jumping off Arsenal. Spurs have a new manager but hardly enough fit players to field a team - I’m sticking with Rice and Timber in my team this week. If I were you I’d stick with Timber
