    Flipped a coin as per the usual and went AWB-->Duffy

    Holebas was the winner of the coin flip and stayed on the squad.

    Jorginho and Bennett bench pts incoming

    there will be no coin flip next week

    Mitrovic is out next, but for whom?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Lacazette

    2. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Patience - he will come back against Huddersfield and sellers will rue selling him...

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

      I'd swap him for Mitro, Hudd are turd

    4. Captain Robert Hatch
      • 14 Years

      thanks men, will dive into the numbers and see what shakes out

    Help, please!
    I am in real trouble. Which game to watch?
    A) AWB vs Lacazete, I have both.
    B) Alonso 15 pointer against Vokes and Gudmundsson, who are in my watchlist.

    1. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      If you need to give your watch list an eye test...

  3. Ziyech on the Bench
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Success in for Hazard pretty damn good! Crystal Palace clean sheet with AWB 3 bonus points incoming?

  4. Sideways Backwards
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Down to 9 players this week. Haz, King, Arnie and Robbo. Plus Peltier on my bench

    1. Brehmeren
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch. That's very bad luck.

      1. Sideways Backwards
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Don't remember being this bad before, only Haz was yellow flagged before the deadline I think

  5. infamousprob

    Has holebas Lost his place to masina? Watford are on a winstreak and they have kept clean sheets. Hard to break winning team.

    Holebas - > duffy sounds good?

    1. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Duffy is a good shout of so. Done me well so far. I don't know about the Holebas situation though.

  6. Luke Chadwicks Left Peg
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    In a predicament at the moment.

    Patricio/McCarthy
    Robertson/Alonso/Yedlin/Bennett/AWB
    Haz/Salah/Knock/Murphy/Rich
    Augero/Vardy/Ings

    0.5 ITB, 1 free transfer

    The biggest issue is obviously Knock, I thought he'd be a nice little set and forget 2 GWs ago but the FPL gods have been cruel. Ings despite nice underlying stats hasn't done anything and now his fixtures are completely gone. Game plan was to get Fabianksi in this week for McCarthy but that's been scuppered.

    A) Knock > 6m or below, question is who?
    B) Knock, Vardy > Arnie, Maddison for a -4 and have 0.9 ITB

    Thoughts appreciated!

    1. rjcv177
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B..but be aware of Madison (owner here)

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Might go for Kenedy as the next set n forget option.

    3. ShackledAce
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Went Knock-> Deulofeu this GW. Served me well. Love that dude

    is the reddit fpl community better than the one here?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Go have a look.

    2. AzzaroMax99
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      No. 🙂

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

      Can’t be much worse, can it?

      1. Fred54
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        If it's like any other Reddit then lots of long winded posts when a few words would be sufficient.

        They still picking captaind based on a dog's preference?

        1. Oven Glover
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          The devil you know...

    4. DAZZ
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yes definitely

    5. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Both rancid, though average age here seems slightly higher (11.5yrs Vs 12yrs)

  8. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    If Arnie is fit for next game, would you sell Wilson or Lacazette to buy him?
    Both players are on form but tough fixtures incoming.

    1. Blue Moon Rising
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Wilson not immediately but one to keep an eye on. Lacazette potentially as the spare cash will enable an upgrade in midfield.

    2. tokara
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      wilson is a keeper for me

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Lacazette and use $ elsewhere to upgrade. Bournemouth do have some tougher opponents looming, yet they score goals, and Wilson is just a great value. He’s leading all other fantasy forward options.

    4. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'm selling for Arnie this week. Was always planning to and wouldn't make sense to hold just because he got the points from the easy games we expected him too.

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

        Selling Wilson that is.

      2. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Me, too, and yet now I see it’s obvious I should sell Mitrovic, not Wilson, for Arnie.

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

          Wilson is scoring, will continue to rise in price and their fixtures do turn again in time. Just depends who you think will score more from Mitro or Wilson. A few weeks ago, it would have looked crazy to lose Mitro, but Fulham are looking all sorts of out of shape.

  9. Bielsa's Bucket
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    A playing bench is going to make a massive difference to lots of mini leagues this week!

    1. DAZZ
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah my rival has a jammy 6 pointer from Yedlin coming in

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      yeah, my 3x2-pointers will strike fear into my opponents

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Modal sub = 2 points is my expectation.

    4. rjcv177
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      my ML rival has Kiko 1st sub for Robbo

  10. DAZZ

    Why are the media so silent about the helicopter crash? Theres some horrible rumours on twitter that southgate may have been on board. Highly unlikely, but no confirmed deaths just yet, the media silence is worrying.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      As harsh as it sounds I personally don't think it matters 'who' was on board, what matters is that there were people on board.

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed.

      2. Mic
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed. I think everyone is trying to be respectful nonetheless hence the media silence.

    2. Mic
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      It's a very big deal, most likely he has died with his wife and some directors. They have to go about breaking the news properly. So sad... He has done so much not just for the club but Leicester in general.

    3. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Perhaps because reputable media (yes it exists) know better than to pander to BS Twitter ITKs/rumours and wait for facts and have some respect and dignity for those on board.

  11. rjcv177
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Help please

    A) Salah+Deeney
    B) KdB+Arnie (-4)

    1) Keep TAA
    2) TAA to Rudiger (double with Alonso)
    3) TAA to Balbuena

  12. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Patricio
    Alonso - Robertson - Doherty
    Hazard - Mane - Richarlison - Schurrle
    Aguero - Lacazette - Wilson

    Hamer - Billing - AWB - Rico

    2 FTs
    bank: 1.5 mln

    Transfer suggestions?

    Thinking I could drop Rico & Schurrle and get Mendy & Kenedy / Deulofeu in their place.
    Any other ideas / suggestions?

    With all these autosubs my wife's gonna think I've been benchwanking again.

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Is she your team's Director of Football or something?

      1. Fred54
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Actually should have gone with chairman as wives hold the purse strings... whatever purse strings are.

    Do people honestly believe Arsenal will crush Palace away? Not happening imo.

    1. Rage Against The Raheem
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I see an upset here, 1 - 0 Palace.

    2. Mic
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Don't think so

  15. Stoic
