    Can't decide who to bench out of Mitro, Rich and Doherty. Liverpool have only conceded 5 goals in 13 games thus far, but Rich seems like the type that gets fired up for the big occasions.

    1. Amey

      was about to ask the same question....

  4. Gt1996
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Any estimations on how likely Shaqiri is to start? Worth starting him over AWB?

    1. George James
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I think he starts Sunday

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Most likely !!
      Home match !!

      1. George James
        • 9 Years

        Yes considered this but would like Everton cover over next 2 after this gameweek

  6. EL_FENOMENO

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        You think Sarri will drop Morata and gove Giroud a go?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          No !!
          I think Hazard will get a goal anyway and goal >> Full baps for him !!

          1. Konstaapeli
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            True. I'd still be more confident captaining Haz if Morata wouldn't exist.

            1. Pieterke30
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              That would be a no brainer

    1. Always Off The Post
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Potentially change Bennet for Fraser on Bench? Fraser more explosive and I like the way he lines up against Delph & Sane on the left flank.

      1. Manumana
        • 8 Years

    Salah + Richarlison -> Hazard + Sané -4

    Outrageous?

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Do you have Sterling?

      1. noquarternt
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yes already have Sterling

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Not outrageous no. Worth a hit? mmm maybe not. I'd say yes for sure if it was for free.

      1. noquarternt
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah this is my thinking, feels tricky, but feels like it could pay off nicely.

        I'm wildcarding soon and just need to beat my big rival in our H2H this week, so am not looking further than the next gameweek or two.

    0 FT, 2.9 ITB

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah looks good to me. Probably not worth a hit to use that 2.9 for a one off game.

  16. Ryan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    On a WC and have a decision to make. Thoughts?

    A) Martial, Shaw, Digne
    B) Richarlison, Trippier, Fernandez

    Ederson, 4m
    TAA, AWB, Bennett, ________ , ________
    Sterling, Sane, Eriksen, Brooks, ________
    Kane, Arnautovic, Murray

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      B

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        No United players then. Yeah, I kinda understand.

    2. Teror
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely A only without Shaw. You're far too heavy in midfield and upfront too.

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Why not Shaw? Two clean sheets in a row for United of late.

    3. George James
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      A with Siggy

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah I've considered that. Could go that way but 3 tough games in the next 5 for Everton.

    4. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      You can do better than Erik

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I have memories of Eriksen smashing it over the festive season. Happy to consider alternatives though. I just like the look of Spurs at the moment.

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Rather get Son and reinvest the saving.

          1. Ryan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            Fair call. I just assume Son will be rotated more hence the reason to go a little bigger. Its only 0.9m difference. I may get good use of that 0.9m though.

            Son is also the sort of player who will get taken off at 60m and will often come on for 1pt cameo's as a sub as well.

            1. Christina.
              • 14 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              Son is fresh and I reckon(I hope) poch has now realized after the Chelsea win that Son up top brings the best out of kane/Elli/Eriksen

              1. Ryan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 12 Years
                5 years, 4 months ago

                Yeah you're quite right. Certainly the more maverick choice and I do like that. Would probably need to compensate with more conservative selections elsewhere to keep the balance of inevitable rotation.

      2. Ode
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Eriksen is a good option imo, back in form & fixtures turning for Spurs

        1. Ryan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Yeah that was my hunch as well. He's been bad all season but seems to be back to his best. Is also a key player for Spurs and now Alli is playing a little deeper.

  17. Teror
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Is Haz worth ditching regardless of his flag? Been well off form for many weeks now. Fulham is a good fixture but he might not start. Maybe worth ditching for a couple weeks? Easy to downgrade Salah and bring him back in for Chelsea's good run

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      You know he's going to score a brace the moment you ditch.

    2. Bat Man
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      This is what I did for Sterling. I have other priorities to get in the coming weeks including Kane and don't want to keep on putting off Sterling. Hazard can be brought in later if he proves his worth again

      1. Pieterke30
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah but my question is this - keep Salah or Hazard?

        Hazard better fixture this weekend, he is cheaper, on pens and actually gets bonus points when he scores.

  18. Ode
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on Salah & Richarlison -> Mane & Sane for free?

    Gives me enough funds to do Aguero -> Kane next week

      Really? I would go with thecllsyer playing for the team who hardly concede at home. Cameo very unlikely if he doesn’t play

      Play Loren, He might start but if he doesn't then I doubt he'll come on. Always the threat of goal too.

  20. Dream Killers 2.0
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Any thoughts on my wildcard team?
    I have 0.5 left in bank to upgrade bench/keep.

    Kane and Laporte or Alonso or Aguero is the question I have been asking?

    Fabianski (Hamer)
    Robertson, Laporte, Doherty, (AWB) (Bennett)

    Sterling, Sane, Alli, Richarlson (Camarasa)

    Kane, Arnautovic, Jimenez

    1. Dream Killers 2.0
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Kane & Laporte or Aguero & Alonso is what I meant...

    2. balint84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      kane and laporte

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Kun+Alonso any day !!
      If your budget allows Bennet >> Schindler !!!

  21. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Richarlison to Sane worth (-4)?
    Have Siggy.

    Which of the two should i go for, or none, or what else? team looks like:

    Henessey/Foster
    Holebas/TAA/Laporte/Wan bissaka/Doherty
    Mane/Hazard/Richarlison/Fraser/Martial
    Aguero/Mitrovic/Arnautovic

    Westham's defender is a must have in coming weeks 😮

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      If you love 2 pointers. 😀

    2. balint84
      • 8 Years

      west ham defenders are the worst in FPL

    3. Always Off The Post
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      After Masuakus stinker last week vs City the great Arron Cresswell could be a nice differential over the festive season...

  29. Josserz
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Would you do Trippier > Alonso this weekend for free or save FT?
    (Other def - TAA, Doh, Dig, W-B if helps)

    Would mean playing Rich if I keep Tripps....

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Do it !!
      21 pointer's might be on the card 😛

    2. Sharkytect
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah definitely. Good enough defence, but worth having alonso in there for free

    3. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Save. Trippier is well worth having after the Arsenal game.

  30. Eytexi

    Start one:
    A) AWB.
