    Mendy has lost over a million owners in the last 2 weeks, this is just perfectly set up for him to start today: cleansheet, goal, assist and max baps incoming.

    This is fantasy football after all, and this is how it works 🙂

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I'm starting him ... just in case.

      He is injured. But no harm in doing it.

    2. Mysterion
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

    3. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

  18. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Don’t think Utd will keep a cs today, there’s better options for a short term keeper

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Reply fail

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years

  22. b91jh

      Robertson

  24. AIRMILES
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Hangover treatment required. Choose one.

    A) Macdonalds
    B) Greggs
    C) Go to Sainsburys and make myself something else

    £5.00 itb.

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      B or C for me

      1. AIRMILES
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Macdonalds is more what I eat when I'm still drunk. But I live opposite Macdonalds.

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

      A fiver won't get you anywhere in Sainsbury's, unless you actually are gonna make it while you're there.

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

      A

    4. DGW Sane TC Fail....
      • 15 Years

      c

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Definitely not c, unless its a quick bacon sandwich.

      1. AIRMILES
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Bacon sandwich was what I was thinking.

    6. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Basically, the combined answer is inconclusive.

  25. semiconductor
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Simple question. Transfer Auba to Kane now or wait after watching today and make the transfer for next gw?

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

      Depends how well you expect them to do today.

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

        Not sure who would outscored the other. Kane easier fixture and Auba player out wide so maybe Kane

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

    With Patricio in goal, should I play:

    1. Doherty
    2. Robertson

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

    If Mendy does start today then I'll never look at the bald genius the same 🙁

    1. jtreble
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Never trust the Pep.

  28. Railwayman
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Play Chilwell, AWB or Cedric ?

    1. L'Aeroplanino
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Chilwell

  29. L'Aeroplanino
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    play one:

    Robertson, Tomkins, AWB
