    1. Gizzachance
      1 month, 20 days ago

      Bet he’ll still end up in lot of teams because of his price

    The real winners, this week, are the players that didn't play any chips.

    Thought I had a good FH team... would have been better off keeping the same team

    1. fantasyfog
      1 month, 20 days ago

      TC got me a goal, could be worse

      1. Nomar
        1 month, 20 days ago

        I take consolation in the fact that someone’s going to play their TC chip and get a blank.

        But, yeah, people who didn’t play a chip this week look like the real winners of GW3.

    Arteta should take Konsa out. He is Chelsea's spy.

    Nothing sucks the joy out of football more than VAR.

    1. Feanor
      1 month, 20 days ago

      Don’t cry it was miles offside

      1. All Hail K
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 20 days ago

        Not crying, rules are rules, just miss the days when someone scored and you celebrated. Now you have to keep calm until all the investigations are completed.

  21. PartyTime

    Thank you Konsa!

  22. CoracAld2831

    Arsenal losing their CS is a perfect way to end this gameweek.

    1. CoracAld2831
      1 month, 20 days ago

      (i own Calafiori and Raya)

  23. F4L
    1 month, 20 days ago

    arsenal look like they're gonna score at every set piece already today oof

    Lewis-Skelly Ballon d'Or loading

    1. Moon Dog

      1 month, 20 days ago

      England's central midfield depth is disgusting.

      1. x.jim.x
        1 month, 20 days ago

        Doesn’t matter when the manager picks Henderson over the good ones

      2. Deulofail
        1 month, 20 days ago

        And that's just Lewis-Skelly!

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 20 days ago

      Wouldn't he have to lift a World cup with England first?

  25. Moon Dog

    You can't cover the Hull defence with Arsenal defenders. If you want the premium, you have to pay up for Egan.

    1. FC Hakkebøf

      This

  26. el polako

    Have to say it’s nice of Matty Cash to return Tzolis back to Arsenal.

  27. The Mandalorian
    1 month, 20 days ago

    Calafiori and Gvardiol look to be playing similar attacking positions up front

    1. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 20 days ago

      This is the way

    2. All Hail K
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 20 days ago

      They're both a nice watch, they really get involved up front.

    3. F4L
      1 month, 20 days ago

      ngl cala seems in his own class, gvardiol abit more reserved

  28. el polako
