      4

  4. vandebeek
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Yes or no? Currently no spurs cover.
    D.Gray, Van dijk, Richarlison to Snodgrass, Lovren, Son (-4)

    1. caldracula
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      VVD and rich out for a hit? Definitely not

  5. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Giroud nailed on as the Chelsea striker, now Morata is injured?

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

      No

      They will probably play Hazard as a false 9

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

        What is Hazard's record when playing as the main striker?

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

          Not that great from memory

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

      Sure starter at the weekend but after that who knows.

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

      Ermmm no, could play with a Hazard as a false 9 and Pedro and Willian starting with him

    4. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Should start in the easier games. Hazard up top in the big 6 clashes.

  6. TAT
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Koscielny subbed. Didn't have much to do today, and was smiling after sitting down. Playing vs Soton perhaps?

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

      Absolutely, Mustafi and Sokratis are suspended. Holding injured. Only fit recognised centerhalf.

      1. TAT
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        They can also play Lichsteiner and Monreal there, but Emery has said "…but I prefer to use, if we can, a specialist centre-back.”

  7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Laca obviously being targeted towards the league cup match with spurs with only a 2 days turnaround between it & Southampton

    Auba starts Southampton/Laca benched

    Laca starts spurs/Auba benched

    1. Pieterke30
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Probably yeah

    2. Pieterke30
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      You reckon Son and Sterling will start mate? Any opinion on that?

      Id be interested to read your views on that. Thanks.

      1. Pieterke30
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I mean this weekend of course

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        There’s a lot of talk that Poch is trying to squeeze as much football out of Son as possible before he departs for he Asia cup, so if that holds he should start.

        Sterling *should* also start as if Pep doesn’t win that game it really puts them on the back foot. But reduced minutes a big possibility for both.

        Son could easily be benched for Moura also! So hard to call here players at the minute.

        1. Pieterke30
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah, I know.

          But if I read that correctly, if you had to bet youd say they both will start.

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 15 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah I think so - Son maybe a bit more of a doubt than sterling but they should both start. Pep & Poch could both be frauds & bench them though!

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

      Bang on, i agree. Im expecting a similar situation with Son, starts weekend, rested for Arsenal where Lamela comes in.

      1. Pieterke30
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Or the opposite with Son?

        If he wants to bench Kane for the Arsenal LC game, he will start Son as the number 9. If that’s what Poch is thinking abt then Im not sure Son starts v Burnley...

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Fitness issue looking more likely with every passing match.

    5. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't tend to start vs Big 6 (even though it's League Cup), personally feel he'll start vs Soton and Burnley but will get benched vs Liverpool

      1. Deulofail
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Can you post evidence in support of this? Excluding the first two league matches that Emery was ever in charge at the club, I think Lacazette has started 1 league games against top 6 and benched for 1, excluding matches where he was unavailable or returning from injury (i.e. the immediate game after missing out through injury). Feel free to point out where I'm wrong 🙂 Even if I've made a small mistake, I don't see enough evidence to to form a pattern or generalisation.

    Scottish football.

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

      Championship level

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

        Bit disrespectful to the Championship teams.

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

        U12 or U14 championship?

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

      Epic fail

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

      When the other SPFL teams voted to kick Rangers out the league years back made it much worse. Made the league a joke for years with only one team able to win the league.

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        So much this.

      2. Zinedine Kilbane
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        You mean when they cheated their way to titles at the expense of other teams- the other teams simply didn't vote to have competition removed

    4. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Still batting exponentially above its average given money situation compared to other leagues. Bigger attendances in SPL per capita compared to other top leagues. Easy to dis. I guess you hit POST too early.

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

    That stat on Fraser is insane.

    KDB created 19 big chances in ALL of last season.

    Fraser is up to 15 big chances already and we're not even half way through the season.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Needs his buddy Wilson back to put them away.

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

        He should be back this weekend

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

    Do we think Sané rises tonight - currently on 85.3%

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not tonight but do think he will tomorrow

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      He could, I wouldn’t wait if you can’t afford to

    3. caldracula
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      No

  11. Johan Queef
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Time to move Lacazette on after his hugely rewarding one-week punt??

    And who for?

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

      Kane

      1. Johan Queef
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I should add...I already have Kane & Jimenez.

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

          Kun if confirmed fit

    2. TAT
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'm keeping.

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

      Keep & Captain

  12. JollyGoodYellows
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Which one?

    A) Dilva & Wilson > Salah & Kamara (-4)
    B) Dilva & Wilson > Sterling & Rondon (-4)

    Already have Sane so wary about having Sterling too. As always help is appreciated guys

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

      C) Sterling & Kamara

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

        Actually A might be good for next 3.

        1. JollyGoodYellows
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah I've got Sane already so having both Sterling & Sane is a big rotation risk.

          1. Pieterke30
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Doubling up on them right before December was a huge mistake that I made

            1. JollyGoodYellows
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              That's enough persuasion for me! Getting in tonight before the Wilson drop.

  13. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Play Alisson (Man U) or Foster (Cardiff)?

    1. DeathoftheParty
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Fozzy ladz

    2. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Allison

    3. caldracula
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Alisson

  14. l@sp0
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Who to bring in?
    A) Alisson

    B) Kepa

    1. DeathoftheParty
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Surely Alison.

    2. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The one who's only let 6 goals in all season

    3. IRBOX ⚽
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I’m think at Kepa. If Chelsea can keep a clean sheet against City they can keep a cleanie against anyone. Plus those fixtures until March

  15. Lionac
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Which option scores more next round?

    A) Laca & Son
    B) Mitrovic & Sane & -4

    1. La vida FPL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Probably A. Laca and sane look like they won't start.

  16. La vida FPL
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What is everyone's plans with Richarlson?

    Start vs city? I have Brooks, AWB and Schindler on the bench who could play instead.

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      play brooks

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Sold for 2week punt on B.Silva

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I'd play Schindler

    3. Egbunike
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Brooks to Snodgrass. Play Snoddy and bench Rich.

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

      Timing! I'm thinking of benching. See my post below

    5. caldracula
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Play every week

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Sold for Felipe Anderson will get back in 4 matches

  17. Pieterke30
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Mitrovic will not rise tonight, right?

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      No.

      Once he’s asleep he tends to stay in bed till the morning.

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

    Start Brooks or Richarlison?
    If I start Rich then I have my entire midfield playing in one match as I also own Sterling and Sane.

  19. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    0.1m off TAA to David Luiz 🙁

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      That’s what hits are for.

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        It would be a hit :/

  20. Tommyg
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Kane or Aubameyang for this week. Really can't make up my mind.

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

      Kane for me! Spurs getting some form imo

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

      How many votes wins?

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

      Has to be Kane at home to Burnley

    4. caldracula
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Kane

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

      Kane, Spurs will be buzzing after yesterday and Burnley look poor, they could go and smash them.

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Kane or both

  21. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Anything to do here?

    Fabianski, Hamer
    Alonso, Robbo, Doherty, AWB, Bennett
    Son, Sane, Anderson, Richarlison, Billing
    Kane, Auba, Ings

    1FT
    1.8 ITB

    Nothing or upgrade one of Ings, Billing or Bennett? Or keep the money for a rainyday?

  22. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Start Richarlison (Mci) or Kamara (Whu)?

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

      Yes

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

      Rich

  23. FPLShaqiri
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    How long term is Kolasinac? Or will Monreal win back the RB spot?

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Kolasinac rested tonight, Monreal in the squad. I felt Kolasinac was 1st Choice under Emery going into the season before he got injured. Only Emery knows but I feel it's Kolasinac's place to loose

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

      Kolasinac plays this weekend for sure, long term will rotate with Monreal, although Monreal could fill in as left sided centerhalf in a back 3

  24. GE
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    1) Arnie -> Chica
    2) TAA -> Kola
    3) Arnie, TAA and Hojbjerg -> Kamara, Bednarek and Son (-4)
    4) Other?

    (2FT, 0.2 itb)

    Patricio
    Alonso/Laporte/Doherty/AWB
    Haz/Sterling/Fanderson/Rich
    Kane/Wilson*

    Bench: Button, Arnie*, TAA*, Hojbjerg

    1. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years

      Just 1

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

    On wildcard:

    Ederson / Hamer,
    Robbo / Alonso / Doherty / AWB / Schindler
    Sterling / F Anderson / Richardson / Fraser / Hojbjerg
    Kane / Auba / Success

    Any thoughts on this lot?

    1. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Auba over Hazard as a premium option?

  26. Zladan
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Patricio Ryan
    Alonso Robertson TAA* Bennett AWB
    Hazard Son Anderson Richarlison Kenedy
    Kane Lacazette Jimenez

    How do I bring in a City player?

    1FT 0.0 itb

  27. Eytexi
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Forget opinions on the moves, mostly checking I'm timing them right.

    Want to do Salah & Rich to Sterling & Sané. Want to wait as late as possible to hear as much as possible about City squad.

    Sané COULD rise tonight, so am I sensible doing Salah to Sané now to avoid being priced out, then the other tomorrow assuming no bad news on Sterling?

    That'd also allow Sané to Sterling if by some disaster Sané is ruled out tomorrow.

    Probably unnecessary thought but does this seem sensible?

    1. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

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

      I wouldn’t, Salah hitting form and Rich and has a good run of fixtures coming up is ticking over nicely. I think one of Sterling and Sane will be benched at the weekend but god knows which one. Would consider moving salah to a city mid but don’t think the timing is right now.

  28. Stef rocks
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Any news on Wilson?

    He will probably lose 0.1 today

    Although I bought him for 6.4, so does it make sense to do Wilson/Mitro or maybe even Wilson/King

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Is 0.1 that important to you? Wilson is a strong hold for the rest of the season

      1. Stef rocks
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        No it is not but I don’t have strong bench so better to get some pts than 1 or 2. Most probably will buy him back in few weeks

  29. Jambot
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What do we think tonight means for lacazette?

    1. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      it can be anything, full 90 minutes and no goal would mean he certainly isnt starting vs Southampton, now its something like 50:50. As for me, i've already done my ft so definitely not going -4 to sell him for some starter

      1. Jambot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I think I’d rather he played 90 and blanked would be an easier decision

          keep for this gw. He had the only goal in today's game which shows that he and auba are only legit goalscorers in that team, and if he's benched, its not like he's not able to score from bench, like we've seen against spurs and utd

    not sure about sterling 2nd on the captain poll, sterling always a good shout to return but imo aubameyang and hazard more likely to hit double or triple attacking returns. sterling's big scores have all come against a bunch of trash this season, the kind of trash kane, aubameyang and hazard are up against next. difference between everton and burnley/southampton/brighton's defences is bigger than difference between man city and tottenham/arsenal/chelsea's attacks imo

      I agree, Sterling can hattrick against pretty much anyone, but the Pep factor would really put me off captaining him.

      Kane meanwhile goes into the Burnley game with one start in his last 11 days - should be primed for points (hopefully)
