    Meh just changed captaincy from Salah to Aguero.

    Cardiff weaker defensively, Aguero looks to have better form and has more of a rest mid week.

    1. ⭐ ABHISHEK - THE CURIOUS …
      • 13 Years

      300th Apperence today of him + new contract

  2. GianniBanani

    How about Kun doing newcastle today with Liverpool 0-0?

    1. Kellz86
      • 6 Years

      Cardiff

      1. GianniBanani
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Just to be clear by "doing newcastle" I mean five goals 🙂

        1. Kellz86
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Gotcha 😀

  3. Crouching Tiger
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    RMWCT

    Ederson
    Trippier - Alonso - TAA
    Richarlison, Maddison, Hazard, Mane, Pogba
    Zaha - Aguero(C)

    (Hamer, WB, Doherty, Long)

    1. Brazooka
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No Fraser?

    2. GianniBanani
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      6/10

    3. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No Salah ... hide behind a couch

    4. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I recon that's a lovely looking team, it looks over budget.

      I'd prefer Mitro over Zaha but that's personal preference. 9/10

  4. Maarrrr17
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    mendy > trippier & pedro > richarlison for -4??

    bench is okayyyy, wan bissaka, bennet, ward

    1. Pass
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Nah, one transfer only AWB is good to start

  5. RomeluStormzy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Start AWB (NEW) or Richarlison (ars)?

    1. Brazooka
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      AWB.

  6. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Play

    A. Fabianski (CHE)

    or

    B. Foster (ful)

    I have Mitro

    1. jackhammer1
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Foster slightly more likely to keep a CS. (Doubt it though)

      Fab usually good for save points in these sort of matches

  7. woody3260
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Kane & Kamara > Vardy & King? -8?

  8. Zizou
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Ok think wc is sorted
    Hennessey (hamer)
    Alonso Robertson shaw
    Hazard mane fraser rich dsilva
    Aguero mitro
    (wb, Doherty, ings)

    1. Belalugozi78
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Nice one! 3-5-2 with lots of useful mids is a good idea.

      1. Zizou
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Ta sure a salah brace or hattie and I'll feel like tearing it up

        1. Belalugozi78
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Probably, but his 13 milion price tag is well redistributed and the team is balanced.

          I did not pressed the button but my WC team looks like this:

          Edrerson - Hamer
          Robertson - Alonso - Chilwell - Bennett - AWB
          Hazard - Mane- Richy - Fraser - Hojbjerg
          Aguero - Lukaku - Ings

          0,6 itb.

  9. jackhammer1
    • 7 Years

    Pedro replacement...

    A. Rich
    B. Fraser
    C. Hold and start

    1. Gentle_Turks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

    1. Victor6359
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

  11. t4thomas

    Is Trippier a risk?

    1. Brazooka
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      A potential rotation risk.

  12. Cadenza
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    DSilva+Jimenez or Richarlison+Zaha?

    1. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Silva and Jimmy.

  13. t4thomas

    Ryan | Button
    Alonso | Trippier | Doherty | Wan-Bissaka | Bennett
    Salah | Hazard | Silva | Fraser | Højbjerg
    Agüero | Mitrovic | Wilson

    1. ClassiX
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Robertson for Trippier?

    2. ClassiX
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Could also do La Porte for Trippier and use extra fund to upgrade Silva to Sane?

  16. Binimini
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Got 2 ft. Just do Mendy to Trippier or throw in Bernardo Silva to Moura as well? I got Salah that I would like to get rid of next week, so having 2ft then would be nice

  30. Gabbiadini
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    1. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      If it's not very long I will hold because I have Doherty who has very good fixtures.
