The men in black have been a prominent talking point leading up to Gameweek 13 after Everton’s Oumar Niasse become the first player to be handed a two-match ban for a ‘Successful Deception of a Match Official’.

As featured in the first iteration of our members’ Men in Black article last week, though, Anthony Taylor – the referee who awarded the Toffees’ spot-kick against Crystal Palace – had previous when it came to awarding penalties.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    I’ve got Morata, but shall I find a way to get

    1. arndff_

      Haz in?

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      I think so... it should be good fun owning both for the next 5 weeks

      How do you expect people to give a good enough answer to that without sharing your team?

        His team is linked.

      I am, ditching Eriksen for him next week.

    Have you prepared your Kane exit plan?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      5 in midfield is calling... but why Kane exit plan, is he injured??

    2. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Never owned Kane 😉

    Not enough Calvert Lewin mentions on here imo. he's featured in every single prem game so far, even more nailed due to Niasse ban and his stats are very decent for 5m

    1. J0E
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He got a mention on the scoutcast - is my fantasy island risk this gwk.

      Looks good, as you say, due to niasse ban - also because sou are really awful at home.

  4. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    This week only
    Haz or Richarlison
    Kun or Wilson

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm really 2 secs away from Wilson and Rich and then hazard next week

    2. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      The ones that are 2 of the best players in the league.

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Arguably -

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Liverpool are good defensively at home so Richarlison. And Lun doesn't play anymore so Wilson

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        That's about where I'm at, Kun to be rested after CL for midweek

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Kun is a nightmare, I had to sell him

  5. That Was Easy!
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Probably nothing in it, but would you start...

    A) Moreno (CHE), in a team that’s already kept out Arsenal and MU at home, one goal total conceded

    B) Murray (mun), the attacker, but perhaps no shot at Brighton scoring against MU.

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      a

    2. ooooo

    3. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Murray

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Surprising question after watching Moreno the other day. Chelsea is in form with Kanye back, GL

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Utd look a bit dodgy at the back recently & it would be typical of Murray to nick a goal.

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        What lidleof doesn't inspire confidence?

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Hoping Jones is back so Lindelol does not get near the pitch

  6. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Morata ain't gonna rise tonight right?

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Alice Campello might be able to help you with that one

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      If he scores v pool I'd say his price will go up rapidly next few weeks. If Chelsea click, with those fixtures, Haz & Morata will easily go up +1.0 between them in a few GW's

  7. panda07
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I'm really struggling for players this week. My team is:

    0FT 0.4ITB
    Elliot Foster
    Alonso Otamendi Jones* Lowe* Mbemba*
    Salah Sane Sterling* Richarlison Carroll
    Kane Morata Wilson

    Are there any changes you'd make for a hit?

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Did you bring in Wilson early with your FT? Tough to see anything with a hit in your price range. Playing 10 won’t be too bad for a week. Jones > Mustafi is reasonable.

      1. panda07
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yep I thought Jones would be fit for this week but it's looking unlikely now

  8. Big P
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Southampton (EVE) or Swansea(BOU) most likely to keep a clean sheet this week?

    1. ooooo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      none but Southampton

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      play the swans defender imo

  9. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    dropping kane allows for a huge upgrade in midfield and defence but who to drop him for?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Niasse! But after his 2 game ban

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      callum wilson

    3. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Lukaku or Lacazette (if he starts all PL games).

      But I doubt I’ll be selling Kane before GW15/16 and that also if he doesn’t perform.

  10. RomeluAndJuliet
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jones out for

    A) Otamendi

    B) Vertonghen

    C) Kola

    ??

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Daniels, Moreno, Mee, Dann if going cheap... Alonso or Azpi if going expensive

      1. RomeluAndJuliet
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Forgot to say I already have Ward, Azpi, Duffy, Hunemeier

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Surely it's better to ship hunemier then? Jones could be back at the weekend or midweek & he's a 6.5 def for 5.0... hunemier is just a dead slot in your squad!

  11. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Best week to make the Silva to Pogba move?

    Also do we think Silva starts next 3 PL games or a rest for one of the home games?
    But he’ll probaly be rested for CL and can start the next 3 easily.

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Thinking Silva to Pogba for the derby. But they might be the same price by then.

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I liked silva a lot better with KDB deep

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'll be v interested to see if Pogba starts Utd's next 2 league games.. if he does that's 4 games in 10 days after an 8 week layoff, surely not even Jose is that reckless with a player's fitness?

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah why did he play CL...?

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          No idea, bizarre decision imo

  12. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski
    Bellerin Jones Alonso
    Salah KDB Eriksen Ritchie
    Abraham Lukaku Firmino

    Elliot Ake Carroll Tuanzabe

    Jones/Eriksen > Otamendi/Sane worth a -4? Have exact money for this.
    Or is there something better I should look at?

    1. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No that looks good

  13. For Fuchs Sake
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Murray to Wilson??

    1. RomeluAndJuliet
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably

    2. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes I did

  14. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Waiting for that mee rise since forever.......

  15. jurgenklopp.8
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Elliot
    Cedric - Maguire - Daniels
    hazard - richarlison - sterling - salah
    Kane - Abraham(!) - Firmino

    Pope - RLC- Wimmer - Stones(!)
    1.9itb 1ft

    what would you do...?

    A) Stones > Alonso (next week after pool) uses up budget so weak forward line
    B) abraham > wilson

    thanks!

  16. Aarono23
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What do people think of these transfers from next week:

    Eriksen to Hazard
    Silva to Sane

    Not sure on getting rid of Eriksen, but will still have Kane up top.

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I like. Though I'd prioritise a Liverpool mid over Hazard.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        This is a good point, it would be lovely to fit Coutinho, Haz, Salah, Richarlison, Groß, Pogba into a midfield, but 6 into 5 doesn't go & I think Salah is more important than Coutinho!

      2. Aarono23
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Already have Salah. Midfield would be Salah, Sane, Hazard, Choupo and RLC. Would love to find an extra couple of million to get Pogba as well

  17. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Took my first hit of the season to bring magic beans in my starting line up 😎

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      who?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Loftus cheek

  18. Reuser
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Think I have come to the conclusion that it's worth taking a -4 to upgrade Sterling to Sane.

    Which 4.7 or less defender should I replace Jones with to fund the move? Looking at medium-term fixtures, nailed-on etc.

    Morgan/Simpson?
    Dann?
    A second Burnley defender?
    Dunk/Duffy?

    Current defence is: Azpi, Mee, Jones, Naughton and Mbemba.

    1. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Dann is the favourite here.
      Maybe dunk or Simpson

    2. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Dann

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Dann

    4. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks all - much appreciated.

      Quite surprised by the consensus - and reassured too. Feels like a leap of faith with Dann, but the mixture of fixtures, attacking threat and an improving team all point to potential value....

  19. Pochecinno
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Play Monreal or RLC?

    1. ooooo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Monreal

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years

        Cheers CFM

  20. Big P

    Best defender for 5.7m? A Spurs option?

    1. Astronautovic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      0.1 more for otamendi

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      mustafi?

  21. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    DDG
    Azpi Otamendi Ward
    Salah **** Richarlison ****
    Kane Morata Abraham

    elliot Yedlin Dunk Carroll

    A) Silva + Pogba
    B) Hazard + Choupo

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sane over any of those options

      1. ooooo
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Will get Sane for Silva later.

    2. lilmessipran

      sane + xxx

      1. ooooo
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Can do Abraham to Niasse and then Silva to Sane later. So A)?

  22. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    pick one
    a.kaku
    b. kun +4

    1. ooooo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kun + 4... if he doesnt start then he will v Southampton! super captain pick...

  23. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    would you rather have Mustafi or Otamendi?(Jones replacement) and why please?

    1. Astronautovic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Otamendi more cs potential

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        thats not exactly correct, mustafi has gotten a cs in all but 1 of the games hes played in......

    2. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ota because in the next 3 he will keep 3 clean sheets.Mustafi will keep 2.

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        ok cheers.... mustafi cheaper though

    3. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Otamendi. CS and attacking potential.

    4. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      very conclusive, cheers guys!

    Any chance Mou says Jones is fit tomorrow?

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      most replacements dont look like they will change in price tonight so we can wait and see thankfully! if hes out(which he is) what will you do?

      1. HD7
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Mustafi -4. I know its for a hit but at least hes nailed and I will need every nailed player for the busy period

        How is your team looking right now bro?

  26. willl
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski / Elliot
    Otamendi / Davies / Moreno / Mee / Yedlin

    Benching Fabianski, Mee and Yedlin. Is this the correct choice?

    1. brenks
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Moreno should be third sub. Play Mee and Fabianski

  27. Astronautovic
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is sane a much better option than pogba?
    Pogba let me upgrade kolasinac or ota to alonso

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes.

  28. KUNingas
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    G2G? On WC and 0.1 ITB. Wilson and Otamendi better than Niasse and Alonso?

    DDG
    Alonso, Mustafi, Daniels
    Salah, Sane (VC), Pogba, Richarilison, RLC
    Kane (C), Morata

    Elliot, Mee, Moreno, Niasse

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Prefer it as it is. Nice team

      1. KUNingas
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. Niasse can sit on bench

    2. Ed

      impossible to call

      1. Scapegoat Salah

        True. Wouldn't be so bothered as long as he got minutes but he didn't even come on last game!
