    Aguero Mitrovic
    Hennessey Ings AWB Mendy

    1. Albert_Luque
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      You're fine, I'd save. Have you thought about playing Mendy instead of Boly, and also Ings instead of Maddison?

      1. WijnaldumLeviosa
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Isn't Mendy still injured? The other one I'm still not sure of...

  14. Albert_Luque
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Good to go? Or anything requiring a hit?

    Patricio - (Hamer)
    Alonso, Robertson, Laporte (Cedric, AWB)
    Salah,Mane, Walcott, Fraser (Stephens)
    Aguero (C), Zaha, King

  15. YoungPretender

    Start Ings or Robertson?

    1. Johnny 8
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Ings

    2. rjcv177
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      90min for robbo to hold...or a fwd on pen? (Robbo owner and ings hater...but ings a better option this gw)

  16. tobz102
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Play,
    A) Pereira
    B) Bennett

    Already playing Patricio

    1. rjcv177

      7 years, 3 months ago

      B, nailed

  17. rjcv177
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Mendy here burning my XI

    A) play awb/robbo
    B) mendy to doherty
    C) mendy to rose*

    *trippier might miss the cardiff game after hud+barca.
    Ben davies playing the "hard games" on CL leaving Rose for PL

    1. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I'd say B)

      1. rjcv177
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        No love for rose? Gutfeeling here

    2. ramunas
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I did Mendy to Doherty. According to FPLstats the majority are doing Mendy to Walker, TAA and AWB.

      Not sure on whether to start AWB or Robbo, I'm in the same boat :S Currently have AWB starting due to Van Dijk doubts and I have Alonso

  18. fridge

    Patricio
    AWB. Alonso. Chilwell
    Fraser. Maddison. Salah. Mane

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      A nice headed goal would be good. Tottenham's weakness

      1. Pinturicchio10
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Kane headed OG

    2. Licious Lizard

    5. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      1. Oven Glover
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        You’re responsible for at least half of those panicky posts, so I trust your love.

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Nahh, im calm. 2.4 itb and 7241 rank 😉

    6. ElliotJHP
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Extremely tedious question but hey ho

      On a wildcard. Ditch Hamer for a less selected 4 mil keeper?

      1. piquiblanco
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Doesn't matter

    7. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Good luck to all!!

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Same here, especially those who have the same players as me.

    8. UnitednationsXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Use my ft or roll over?

      Patricio — foster
      Alonso shaw mendy — robbo awb
      Salah Dilva Maddison Richarlison — Stephens
      Kun king zaha

      A: mendy >> Doherty and leave funds to potentially do kun > Kane or silva > hazard next gw
      B: mendy >> Trippier and take a hit next week if I want to get Kane/hazard for gw8
      C: roll over the FT as I have robbo/awb coming on for mendy.

      1. piquiblanco
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Similar situation, I'm keeping the transfer.

    9. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Why is FFS already on GW8 when it starts up?

    10. pakornk
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Captain Richarlison or Aguero?

      1. ElliotJHP
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Aguerooo

      2. Jules Rimet
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Brain says Aguero.
        Heart says Richarlison.

      3. theswallow1965
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Aguero for me

    11. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Man City twitter posted an ad for the game with a picture of Jesus on it. Probably means nothing right? Doubt the social media teams knows the lineup.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        no, but could easily be 352 again I suppose

        1. Pukki Party
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          You're right, and i'm bringing in Sterling maybe..

      2. BadgersBoys
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Is Mendy on it?

        1. Pukki Party
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Jesus only player on it, could be random

      3. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Means Jesus is starting, confirmed.

    12. reeceon
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Arnautovic to Mitrovic
      Or save ft?

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        I did, wish I hadn’t now and instead saved FT....

      2. Pass
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Mitrovic

      3. kennethrhcp
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        save

      4. Pinturicchio10
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Save
