    Spurs have to win today. If not, they must be favourites to go down?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 9 Years

      1. Ignasi M

      Lightning don’t strike over & over again 😆

    2. F4L

      its ok, just need fpl towers to keep going with the second chance leagues. third, fourth, fifth etc 😛

  14. JBG

    Carrick might need to go.. the intensity and just general play is shite.

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      The back line is the worst collection in the Prem

      1. JBG
        • 8 Years
        1 hour, 56 mins ago

        Twice or thrice Maguire or Yoro has cleared the ball out of the box and not one attacker or midfielder could be bothered to run after it or win the 2nd ball.

    33 points autosubs if Gakpo + Neco don't show for this top 10k manager, huge!

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      1 hour, 58 mins ago

      Gakpo was ruled out

  16. Royal5
    • 15 Years

    Kudus looking good

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      1 hour, 57 mins ago

      Won't play this zombie filled team lead by a snorlax every GW.

  17. Gizzachance

    Got saka 3 gw ago, got that late penalty, 2 blanks since, didn’t look great today

    A keep
    B get rid

    1. Baps Hunter

      A

        Palmer getting two assists for Henderson from 0.08 xGI wasn't any better. Bruno is more expensive and has 80% blank rate before today.

    2. Royal5
      • 15 Years
      1 hour, 54 mins ago

      Plenty of better options atm

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        1 hour, 54 mins ago

        Cheers

        Are there actually?

        1. Brosstan
          • 12 Years
          1 hour, 47 mins ago

          Yea at cheaper. Impossible to spend budget when rhe best picks are 5 defenders, Rogers, gross, pedro

          1. Baps Hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            1 hour, 40 mins ago

            I already have them...

          2. Baps Hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            1 hour, 36 mins ago

            Verbruggen / 4.0
            Cala, Konsa, Gvardiol, de Cuyper, Hall
            Rogers, MGW, Groß, Saka / Slater
            Haaland, J P l, Wissa*

            Palmer was lucky today, but Saka looked more dangerous than him. And that's not much tbh.

      3. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 hour, 48 mins ago

        Please, do name them.

    3. The Reptile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 hour, 49 mins ago

      I'm thinking of selling - he looked awful today

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 hour, 41 mins ago

        This was his worst game of the season if we look at the underlying stats. He was still often positioned centrally in the box. All he needs is one goal to find his confidence. He isn't a value pick, but I don't see obvious better asset.

  18. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    1 hour, 55 mins ago

    Of course Spurs finally turn up when playing United

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      1 hour, 54 mins ago

      10 more mins of domination, some more chances and then they'll be 2-0 down by ht somehow

    2. Moon Dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 53 mins ago

      Carrick is getting schooled.

      No plan in build up and outnumbered in key areas. His players look lost.

    3. JBG
      • 8 Years
      1 hour, 52 mins ago

      It's the other way around.. MU allowing them everything

  19. F4L
    • 11 Years
    1 hour, 53 mins ago

    senesi shouldve picked a club where he was a guaranteed starter

  20. Ignasi M
    • 9 Years
    1 hour, 52 mins ago

    all spurs.

  21. JBG
    • 8 Years
    1 hour, 51 mins ago

    Yet again everyone half asleep.

  22. Brosstan
    • 12 Years
    1 hour, 51 mins ago

    Bruno (C) mega fail. Looking at the 6th captain fail in a row

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 9 Years
      1 hour, 29 mins ago

      Just tell us who you will captain every week and we'll go with someone else.

      1. Brosstan
        • 12 Years
        1 hour, 26 mins ago

        I have been doing that. Haaland next GW

    2. Royal5
      • 15 Years
      1 hour, 28 mins ago

      Bruno has one good game all season. Was even poor during the internationals.

    3. The Reptile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 hour, 27 mins ago

      I actually thought for a bit that he wasn't playing

    4. The Reptile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 hour, 18 mins ago

      I think it's time to spread the Bruno funds

  23. Bobby Digital
    • 9 Years
    1 hour, 50 mins ago

    Bruno and Mbeumo owner... WC activated.

  24. Ignasi M
    • 9 Years
    1 hour, 49 mins ago

    This has a winning Bruno F penalty written all over this game.

    1. keefy59

      In injurytime

      1. Ignasi M
        • 9 Years
        1 hour, 25 mins ago

        100%

  25. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 hour, 49 mins ago

    Anyone know Maguire’s W D L states for Man Utd? Bet they’re dreadful…

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 hour, 40 mins ago

      PL is according to AI:

      W - 100
      D - 44
      L - 52

      So 51% win rate…for Man Utd

  26. F4L
    • 11 Years
    1 hour, 49 mins ago

    metropolitano midweek, will be er interesting if united play like this

  27. GREEN JUMPERS
    • 6 Years
    1 hour, 48 mins ago

    Spurs have prior of dominating the opening passages and then falling behind

  28. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 hour, 47 mins ago

    23mins in and Man Utd fans giving the team grief….lol

    1. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      1 hour, 46 mins ago

      Team deserve it. Intensity is in the gutter. Shite attitude all round

  29. Jacquet or chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    1 hour, 46 mins ago

    So this is another batch of players that have got worse since joining United.

    They’re really good at doing that.

  30. Nightcrawler
    • 7 Years
    1 hour, 44 mins ago

    There were people bemused and questioning why anyone would sell a player after a 23 point haul

    This is why. Bruno has been shocking this season

    1. GREEN JUMPERS
      • 6 Years
      1 hour, 39 mins ago

      Over an hour to go yet
