    Swtiched captaincy from Salah to Son last min.
    This will turn out well

    *NOT*

    I do think the deadline needs to be changed. Either 1 hour earlier or 30 mins later.

    We are in a grey area right now where teams can be leaked to certain people and so the argument of 1 hour deadline making the game more “casual friendly” just doesn’t apply.

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed.

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      What needs to change is that PL clubs should have an up to date injury list which is updated daily and available to everyone. Like in the NFL. Would get rid of a lot of this rubbish IMO.

      1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Nfl gets it right, agree.

      2. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        That would be a great shout.

        Questionable, probable, doubtful tags ?

        1. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Pretty much.

    3. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed

    4. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      1 hour earlier or kickoff for me

    5. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Earlier if so. Trying to guess the lineup is part of the game imo

      1. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        It’s a bit of the game I don’t enjoy actually. It adds additional luck !

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Agree. I gor Rash and currently no playing bench X(

    6. Numb
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Why should they make it more casual friendly? Shouldn’t effort be rewarded?

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Effort? Being able to log in at 11:25 every week? Great effort

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Still involves effort and commitment.

          1. Ginkapo FPL
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Its also not something to be proud of.

            1. Numb
              • 9 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Weird comment

      2. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        The reason the deadline is an hour before IS casual friendly.

        It’s so you don’t have to login at the deadline to check the lineups !

    7. Garfield1001
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed

  3. RUUD!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    What’s up with Mitrovic?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He's starting as captain?

      1. RUUD!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Lol FlashScore has markovic playing instead of him

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Can you imagine? 😆

          ... but in reality, we're only a few weeks away from that.

  4. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Auba and Rash in my XI... Rich, AWB and Alonso on my bench. Could be worse

    1. Paracelsus
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. I am with you on the first two--it's one of those weeks where it is nice to have some quality on the bench.

  5. KingOllie

    Baby-faced Fraud

  6. andrewe63
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    No-one is gonna captain a defender in a double game week if they have earmarked a striker to do the job

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I captained Assou Ekotto a few years ago and he dominated.

      1. andrewe63
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        \the odds suggest its a bad move surely?

  7. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford benched due to dead leg says Ole

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Nice excuse from OGS. Why is he on the bench then? His dead leg will miraculously heal when Utd need a goal?

      1. L'Aeroplanino
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        lmao

      2. Party time

          Lol

      3. Ghost Gooner
        • 10 Years

        Why does he say this now 😡

        1. fc_skrald
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          This has been known for 5 days:

      4. Jordan.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        unlikely for a cameo then

        1. FDMS All Starz
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          He won’t be on the bench if there was no chance of him playing

    2. Tsssst
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      any non Rashford owners here? everyone seems to have him...

      still think he could get something fro the bench though

      1. Tev
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        0/

      2. Differential C (Mark)
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Here, could finally get a green arrow!

      3. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        What, like piles?

    3. Jordan.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      rashford to bench 2 in awb, fraser to bench 1 and goalie changed flappy to heaton ,interesting to see how that works out ,my rival one of 2 in the league without rashford fml...

      1. Party time
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Write in your native language buddy

      2. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Rash dead leg

        1. Now I'm Panicking
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Schoolkids do give each other a lot of dead legs I suppose

      3. Teror
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Annoying how Kamara never seems to get any games these days

        1. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          He has gone on loan to a club in Turkey.......

        2. Sim Simma
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Even in Turkey ?

        3. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          First on my bench, could get some good points against this makeshift United defense.

          1. The Ejiptian King
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            I started him when he took the pen from Mitro and missed, I still have faith though, 9 out of 8 times they go in.

        4. Pierce34
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          He is, for Yeni Malatyaspor.

      4. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Dead legs take only 2 days to heal guys 😉

      5. I Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Anything new on Auba or we still don't know if he trained or traveled?

        1. Numb
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          The press hasn’t reported anything about him not travelling. As Emery said he should be OK they would have done if he hadn’t travelled

          1. Numb
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            And he was in training yesterday according to Ben Dinnery

        2. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Definitely spotted at training on Friday. Not sure if traveled

      6. Ady87
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        All benefit to bringing in Lindelöf negated by this rest and Liverpool next. Can’t catch a break. Jones & Smalling just doesn’t work. We messed with the formula for Burnley and look what happened. Today should be an opportunity and I’m predicting a struggle now.

        1. Ady87
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I know Liverpool are going through a bit of a tough spot but if Firm/Salah/Mane can start most games and occupy top of the league as a result for most of the season then why is everyone else so he’ll bent on rotation?

          Screw the PSG game.

        2. Maddamotha
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Without Rash and Lingard yeah, it could be.

        3. Jealous Viper
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Fully agree with this. Just hope we manage to win today

      7. FER FUSCH AKE
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Paolo Smaldini and Phil Baressi start. Cleanie guaranteed.

        1. Differential C (Mark)
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Carlo Ancel-Olé in the dugout?

        2. Sánchez
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          And Martian Van Basten with the goals

        3. Planet Head
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Shame Dalotdoni is playing

      8. Yippeekiyay Mertersacker
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        You're playing with fire Solskjaer!

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

      9. Garfield1001
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Anybody else benched Richarlison?

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah first sub.

          1. Garfield1001
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Gutted I didn’t put Richarlison in for Rashford

            1. DA Minnion (Former great)
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              You might still get him.

        2. King Kun Ta
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yep....1st on the bench

      10. Jordan.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        1. bigbudgie
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Saw him buying a Twix at the services

      11. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        In fairness he’s so highly owned it doesnt really make much of a difference

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yay! Variance.

          (Oh he'll cameo, won't he?)

        2. Jordan.
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          does in a h2h if your rival don't own him ,which actually applies to about 3million teams

      12. FDMS All Starz
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Which 4 teams are guaranteed to play GW31?

        1. Holmes

        Rashy vs dead legs 😎

      14. balint84
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        buying Markovic looks very clear answer to the Kamara issue

        Damn rashford dropped to the bench! Didn’t see that coming. Hopefully a super sub role then

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Obviously haven't been on here for the last hour

          1. Danstoke82
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Yep I have. I didn’t see anything that said he would be dropped unless I was missing something

      16. Duffy Dunk

        Pep rotates MUN players too now.

        Rash on legs. Dead.

        Who you got coming on for Rashy?

        6. Teddy Brewski
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Nobody! Thought I could sort my Ings and Kamara problem out next week. Defence and midfield strong enough to cover this week but can’t play 5-5-0!

        7. Now I'm Panicking
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Sir Ronald Donald

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Rashford 😉

        9. ChuckN
          • 14 Years

          Duffy

        10. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I think Rash will come on, we have Smalling and Jones in defence, we'll probably need him.

        11. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Ricky Martin

        12. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Laselles. But then TAA prob won’t play either so I’d also have Valery.

          Glad I took the hit to get Laselles now

        13. Tcheco
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Can't remember, either Siggy or Rondon :/

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Mitrovic

        15. Deulofail
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Potentially have AWB, Digne and Solanke coming on for Rashford, Aubameyang and TAA

        16. Indpush
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Dilva

        17. Flynniesta
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Down to bare bones..Bennett/Digne coming in for Rash/Lindelof & Kamara not coming in for Pereyra

        18. jia you
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          My boy Rondon
