FPL Community Questions: Live Stream

Our twice-weekly live streams continue with a community questions special this afternoon.

Joe and Neale will be on air on our YouTube channel from 12:30pm BST but you can also tune in via the embedded video below.

This will be converted into podcast format after the event.

Yesterday we put out a request for questions via a Hot Topic and Twitter and we’ll be addressing some of those topics today.

Giggs Boson asked about Bournemouth assets and we’ll be looking at the Cherries, along with Leicester City players, in our latest mid-price price bracket analysis.

Bambi wondered if 5-3-2 is too inflexible should an early bandwagon emerge and we’ll be sharing our views on that, too.

With the ‘going big in defence’ strategy gathering momentum, two relatively overlooked premium forwards are also discussed.

We’ll be filming another one of these videos on Thursday lunchtime tackling more of the requests that were submitted on our site or on social media.

Keep your requests coming in for topics of debate in the meantime and we’ll get through as many as we can before the season begins.

    Any Chelsea fans here? How long is Rudiger out and is Christensen at 5.0 a good option in the meantime?

    1. jay01
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Not entirely sure how long he’s out for but I think the opening weeks and he’d be incorporated with the cup games.. I’d say wait on preseason to see our CB pairing as Zouma is also in the mix now

    No Eriksen in the teams I see.

    Is he not a must have?

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Wants a bigger challenge.

    2. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      He has his ups and downs, I cant cope with this

    3. aapoman

      Not falling for that again after last season's start

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Moura?
        Ali?

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Moura you know I'm going to say yes. Not done my first draft yet but I'll try and accommodate Moura as my main punt ( only 2 punts allowed max)

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        why would I be wanting to look at a table over the last 2 week of last season?

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Reset it, for all of last Season, silly!!!

      2. Lovren an elevator
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Been wanting to ask you...what's your opinion on Noble? People say hes not nailed...

    4. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I like Eriksen but think Alli will do better this season, and want Son as well when he becomes available

    5. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Son is their best mid option now, so Eriksen could be great for the first couple but I would then rather punt on Moura for much cheaper.

    6. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      All know Spurs are good FPL points scorers. ATM Erik is not on my radar due to uncertainty in his future. I think Alli if he gets his head right could play more advanced and become a good asset. Erik will benefit too with their new midfield acquisition. Jury out ATM

    7. Dybala10
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I think I'd rather wait until GW5 for Spurs.

  3. Worsle90

    RMT please!

    Ryan,
    TAA, VVD, Digne, Zinchenko, Aké
    Salah, Sterling, KDB
    Giroud, King

    Button, Noble, Dendoncker, Greewood

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I like it a lot at this moment in time.

  4. OldBenKenobi
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    A) Sterling + 6.5 forward (not King)
    or
    B) KDB + Vardy

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B for me

    3. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      A, its a trap thinking KDB covers Sterling. A will rely on you nailing or moving on quickly to the best value striker but there are tones of options in that price bracket it will soon come apparent by GW3 which one is best

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Did anyone talk about him covering Sterling? KDB is 200+ points for the season if he is fit.

        1. Homer21
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          This

    4. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I would say it is waste of money if you don't C a premium forward 50% of the time or more.
      So it depends on the rest of your team

    5. The White Pele
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      A. will get Vardy later tho.

    6. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B

  5. dbeck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Current thinking, a lot to still change on pre-season as the Yarmelenko and King spots in my team still up for grabs, looking at Redmond, Haller, CAdams, DCL

    Lloris
    TAA Digne Robbo VVD
    Yarm Rich Sterling Fraser
    Auba King

    1. Queenofthestoneage
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Cool team
      Rich and Auba not usual here

      1. dbeck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers, Rich has higher ceiling than Siggy imo and Auba for the first two then can easily become Kane or Kun

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Bit different but looks really good.

    3. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Not a huge fan of triple Liverpool defence

      1. dbeck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        its took me a while to land there but with 20 clean sheets and only 22 goals conceded, I cant see that getting worst. Last year they went through a patch of going 2-0 up then cruising, I cant see any reason that will change

    4. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Only problem is ownership of Salah and that you don't have him. I would at least look to get Origi in for the first few matches if you really don't want Salah. I think Richarlison could potentially do better than Siggy for the first few games as he appears to start well and then get worse as the season goes on.

  6. LangerznMash
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    The Punt-tastic Anti-Template.

    Ryan (Button)
    TAA, Coleman, Rico (Kelly, Hanley)
    Pogba, Bilva, Martial, Moura, (Guendouzi)
    Kane, Auba, Vardy

    I await your hate 🙂

    1. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Well you are not running with that team so nobody really cares...

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        If Rico and Martial are starters throughout preseason I am.

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Looks ok besides from the 3x4.0 defenders.

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        cheers

    3. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Rico is laughably shite. Alli > Pogba, especially if Ole keeps playing him in a double pivot. Martial is nowhere near nailed. Moura is a must transfer after mci.

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Agreed Moura will be transferred once Son returns.
        Disagree, Pogba is under priced and Alli is over priced, therefore Pogba better value.

      2. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        In what world is Alli > Pogba... Hes been trash for two full seasons

        1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          In a world where he's been played in midfield for ages despite that not being his correct position, and now he'll finally play as a second striker I think he'll kick on much more.

          1. Brosstan
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            He wont get the second striker position with Son and Moura in the side.

            1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              We'll see. I think he plays a lot further forward this year.

    4. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Can only give a 8/10 for not using all your Man United spots in a anti-template team, how about Vardy to Rashford 🙂

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Good thinking, and maybe 3 x Arsenal defenders 😀

    5. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      You know the hate is coming because you know the team is utterly woeful

    6. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      The forward like looks tasty

      1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Line*

        1. LangerznMash
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          I think the values of the premium forwards this year is tasty especially when compared to the premium mids.
          Kane, Auba and Vardy are £3.0m cheaper than Salah, Sterling and KdB!

          1. antis0cial
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            Just Salah + sterling were only 46 points behind Kane, Auba and Vardy total. Add in a fit KDB and the value is in the premium midfielders surely?

            1. LangerznMash
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              Kane's injury record last seasons was the big reason behind that. Fully fit he pretty much matches Salah's points this year. Also Leicester attack under Rodgers will boost Vardy.
              Power shift back to the premium forwards.

    Pukki is going to be this years Michu.

    1. aapoman
      • 10 Years

      Really hoping that so we can go TORILLE

      1. Legohair

      2. KUNingas

  8. Team Bobcat
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Very few teams have Pogba in them at present. Uncertainty surrounding his future obviously. Should united hold their esteemed asset will you guys try and run with him. I imagine a lot will try and include him in should he stay.

    1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Nah. United could be good, or awful. Not willing to bet on that yet

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah. A "wait and see" for me as well. He's priced nicely enough to jump on from the likes of Siggy, Rich and Fraser

    2. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I can see low ownership for GW1 then a bandwagon shifting when he starts well.

    3. Team Bobcat
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      He performed admirably last season from an fpl point of view and if you are to believe the media he was unhappy. A happy pogba with one leg beats siggy and anyone in that price bracket. On pennos too... definitely watching this one closely.

      1. Queenofthestoneage
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Oh really, beats Siggy with one leg you say?

    4. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Pencilled in my GW3 WC

    5. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      In my team and will stay there unless he leaves

  9. The White Pele
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    A) Kane + James

    B) Rashford + Richarlison

    1. RUUD!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      stay away from Man U

  10. Mitch3ltje
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Rate my team please! (just noticed there was a new post, sorry :))

    I've got some cheap players in for the bench, but you'll notice probably :^)

    ------- 3 - 4 - 3 -------
    Goalkeeper: Fabianski
    Defenders: Digne - AWB - TAA
    Midfielders: Sterling - Zaha - Bernardo Silva - Salah
    Attackers: Jiménez - Deulofeu - King
    Bench: Button - Dendoncker - Kelly - Simpson

    thanks in advance

  11. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Currently have Wilson over King in my draft. Is he worth paying 1.5 more for?

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Read the article 😉

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Taking last season's PP90 with this season's pricing, Wilson represents better value for money than King.

      There's obviously a load more stats you could look at though.

    3. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Depends how long you intend to keep him

    4. The 5% Team
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      No don't think so. Kinda think he overperformed a bit last season, and now is a bit overpriced. He will only outscore King by a small margin

    5. RUUD!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      short term no, long term yes in my opinion

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Opposite for me

    6. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I feel he is

    7. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Yes

  12. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Feel like I’m set on this for now:
    Pope
    Zinchenko, TAA, VVD, Coleman
    De Bruyne, Salah, Sterling, Perez
    King, Deulofeu
    Bench: Woodman, Dendoncker, Diop, Greenwood

    How’s it looking?

    1. RUUD!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      solid team mate, keep tabs on Zinchenko, KDB + Sterling double up looks good

    2. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Light up front, but most RMT's I've seen are going that way

  13. Tolly101
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Ryan
    Robertson, TAA, Laporte (Gibson, Kelly)
    Salah, Sterling, Fraser, Tielemans, Dendoncker
    Jimenez, Wilson (Nketiah)

    thoughts? too unbalanced?

    1. Homer21
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool/Man C takes up a lot of your budget but if they get the points.......

  14. Maddi Son
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    My Bench Boost GW1, Wildcard GW3 team:

    Pope,
    Digne, VVD, Smith
    Rich, Salah, KDB, Fraser
    Origi, Vardy, King

    Leno, Tielemans, Cathcart, Kelly

    Instead of giving me solid advice such as; "Don't wildcard GW3".... do you think this is a good team for this kind of strategy or nah?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Unreal strategy well done. Not sure i’d get Vardy with his opening 2 when you can fill the premium spot with Auba, especially as you have tiele. KDB > Bilva, Leno > 4.5 and Vardy > Auba for me.
      You happy with it?

      1. Maddi Son
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Nice moves, and yeah I think I'm gonna go with this strat mate. I nearly always Wildcard between GW4-GW6 so what's a couple more weeks.

      2. Maddi Son
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Also, do you know if Begovic is Bournemouth's No.1 keeper?

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Could be travers just signed 5 year deal, either way we’ll know by the end of pre season but I wouldn’t advise that given you already have 3 decent BOU players, i’d Even argue losing Smith for another 4.5 like Dunk if he goes LEI then replace your 4.0 Kelly with Rico

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      yep, could work out fine. Suggest you downgrade Leno to 4.5 and upgrade Kelly.

    3. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Also thinking about doing this and your team looks good but I want to captain Kane(c) for GW1 ahead of Salah and also on Moura atm as he looks good for the first couple!

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Salah (NOR) then Auba (BUR) better imo

    4. Party time
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Don't do it

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          I think you’re a lil bitch

              • 11 Years

              Try slightly misspelling Tosun', if you know what I mean.

          2. Party time

              I think you're an infected brown cow

          • 8 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Early WC after special team GW1, if you are wondering if you have discovered a wonderful tactic no one has ever tried before......naaaah. Tried, failed.
          First GW has so many new variables there's no 'form' worth relying on.
          Also using the card that early to load up on 'form' players is just asking to fill it full of one week wonders with 0.1 price rises that take till Xmas to shunt back out.

          Been there , done that, Ars 0 - 3 Whu and a wc team full of deadwood, never recovered

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            I never claimed it was never tried, it would have done well last year and I believe it should do this year:
            - Transfer window ends before season starts so by GW3 we will know the teams
            - fixture shift
            - Returning AFCON and copa America players, also suspended/injured ones like Son or CHO who represent unbelievable value and you can build a team around them

          2. FPL Blow-In
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            I know a few people who done brilliant with it last season to be fair.

      • royals forever
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        In your opinion who is the best 6.5m ST to have who will rotate with

        Norwood and/or Neves

        in a 3-4-3 or 3-5-2

        Any ideas will be welcomed

        1. RUUD!

          honest advice after being stung many times is don't bother with rotating, especially outfield players

            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            I agree, rotation is a nightmare, too hard to get right, points rarely go with fixtures!

        Thoughts on this team please, I like the look of it.

        Pope/Heaton
        VVD TAA Digne Coleman Cathcart (Coleman can be another 5.5 def)

          Quite reliant on 5-3-2 Perez/Kane could become Vardy/Sigurdsson

        3. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years

          Everton clean sheets and Perez nailed and playing forward.

            A nice list. Outside the usual suspects, Buendia Adams Mcneil interesting

              • 7 Years

              I really like Buendia especially.

        B) Pope and Laporte

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

          B

        2. Witty Pun: Not good at this…

          B

        3. The 5% Team
          • 5 Years

          B

      • Warby84
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        I change and then go back to my original so here goes...

        Pope Button
        TAA Robertson Digne Dunk Cathcart
        Salah Sterling Brooks Moutinho Dendonker
        Vardy Wilson Greenwood

        Moutinho In there for the fact he got 8 assists last season, up top quite heavy but just think Wilson has an edge over king...

        1. Skalla
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Yep tough call but I think Fraser/King might be the better option instead of brooks/wilson

          1. Warby84
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            50/50 call I would say

          2. Warby84
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            I also feel Wilson is the type who can get a hatrick whereas king plays too wide for my liking

      • Witty Pun: Not good at this…
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        What do you classify as a "punt" in your starting 11? Would Zinchenko count for you, seeing as atm we don't know if he's nailed on? How about Richarlison, who is a clear differential from the template? How many punts will you start off with?

        1. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Richa for sure. Zin due to whether he plays

          1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            So for you, punt basically is equal to differential?

            1. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              Correct!

        2. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Rich always seems to start really well I’m half tempted with him..

          1. Aubaaaaa
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            But not sure whether he’ll start gw1 since he may only join up with the team probably only 1 week before kick off due to his involvement with brazil.

            1. The 5% Team
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              hmm forgot about Copa America

        3. Skalla
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          My punts atm is Moura and Origi , for me a punt must have a big upside for it to be worth it!

        4. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          I count 7 in mine.
          Leno
          Holebas
          Fraser: not many have him even though clearly immense value
          Pereyra
          Iwobi
          Auba
          Origi

          Won’t count Zinchenko as he is set as the 1st choice LB for now. You can count rich for now too but I feel more will come around including me

          1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            Fair enough. I guess your definitions of punt and differential overlap then? Pereyra Iwobi and Origi are especially brave.

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              Yeah for sure I’d use them interchangeably. Only being this brave as I am BBing GW1 and WCing GW3 and they have some. beautiful early fixtures.

              1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 9 months ago

                Fair enough. How much is Iwobi? 5.5?

                1. Ask Yourself

                    4 years, 9 months ago

                    Damn. He is playing Newcastle tbf to you. But risky but good luck anyway. Keep an eye on Sheffield's Robinson though

                    1. Ask Yourself
                      • 7 Years
                      4 years, 9 months ago

                      Doing everything I can to avoid that 5.5m point lol. Could be an interesting one him but for now the starting arsenal LM plying newcastle then Burnley at home is the one for me for 6m

                      1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
                        • 7 Years
                        4 years, 9 months ago

                        Fair enough. I do think Burnley could be tougher than anticipated for Arsenal to crack however, they lack the dynamism to pry apart that 4-4-fackin-2

                        1. Ask Yourself

                          4 years, 9 months ago

                          Well yeah if they sign ceballos as it is rumoured below i’ll be disappointed. As it is now I have faith

          2. Whazza
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            I'd say Fraser is priced just about right as Zaha 10+11 last season is cheaper

        5. Eytexi
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          I'd count a punt as a player I'm personally not convinced by but bring in anyway. So if I were to go for Wolves or Leicester assets early on, I'd count them as punts, but it depends on personal views.

          1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            Good definition. I'll be using that I think.

        6. dbeck
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Auba, Rich, Fraser, not seeing a great deal but I see value in Spurs def and currently on Lloris

        7. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Dont think Rich classifies as a punt because hes nailed on and will probably do well with good fixtures. Hes a differential because Siggy is preferred but not a punt. A punt imo is someone who is a differential because of doubts over his ability or even starting position. Someone like Yarmolenko, Andone, Lingard, Barkley are punts.

      • BoomXhakaLaca1
        • 11 Years

        What price are we expecting Brewster to come in at? Could be gold for the first few games

        1. Party time
            4 years, 9 months ago

            4.5 is the right price

          • Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            Waiting until they see how likely it is he starts I reckon. Probably 5

            1. BoomXhakaLaca1
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              4.5 or 5 wouldn't be bad for the start of the season to be fair!

              1. Ask Yourself
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 9 months ago

                If he gets the first game then a quick 4.5/5 striker punt at home to a depleted Norwich would be excellent. Problem is he’d Have a greedy origi and salah either side of him

          • Witty Pun: Not good at this…
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            5.0 minimum. Should be 4.5 though.

        2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          I've realised i really want Wilson. Swapped Siggy to Wilson in this one.
          Thougts on this triple Bournemouth team? Followed by an early WC.

          Pope/Heaton (4.0)
          Trent Robertson Digne Zinchenko (Cathcart/other 4.5)
          Sterling KDB Fraser (Dendoncker, Hayden)
          Vardy Wilson King

          1. Eytexi
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 9 months ago

            Not worth sacrificing Salah to have KDB, Vardy & Fraser imo. Like having Wilson & King: got the same myself.

          2. Party time

                Yeah you're right, swapped Sterling to Salah by downgrading Cathcart to Kelly.

            Dani Ceballos to Arsenal. Any interest?

              • 7 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              BTEC Pogba. Probably no interest from me, definitely not to begin with

            2. Party time
                4 years, 9 months ago

                Good ebening 🙂

              • Ask Yourself
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 9 months ago

                Not sure he is quite the right fit for what they need. Willock should play there as he is more in the Ramsey mould that worked well end of last year. Ceballos isn’t someone who penetrates the box so much, they shouldn’t have let Ramsey go basically.

            3. Whazza
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              Norwich boss just said Byram can play as winger too

              1. Ask Yourself
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 9 months ago

                They have Buendia, Roberts and Hernandez. He’ll be a back up full back firstly then if they get desperate he could maybe do that

            4. Shankly611
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 9 months ago

              Really hoping Haller comes in at 7.0. For now I'm holding Giroud at his place. Here's my team.

              Scmeichel 4.0
              TAA VVD Walker 4.0 4.0
              Salah Sterling Moura Zaha Hayden
              Giroud Jota King

              Obviously, a 3-4-3 with little bench options except Hayden, but I reckon if I'm going with those 3 at my defense, I'm not really going to rotate them.

              Moura is a punt until Son comes back, after that he is likely to be transfered but I hope he can find his place in the Spurs team.

              Any opinions?

              How's this for a team of proven performers? Not sure about the dubble Leicester but the rest are no-headache picks. Thought about King for a long time but I started the season with him last year and he was infuriating so Im staying clear.

              Pope
              Robbo - TAA - Coleman - Dunk
              Salah - Richarlison - Perez - Maddison
              Aguero - Wilson

              (4.0 - Romeu - Diop - Surridge)

              1. Skalla
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 9 months ago

                Yeah nice and safe but think Perez has to prove it again after moving teams and Pope not confirmed 1st choice yet.

                  Solid team, personally I would go with 1 out of perez or maddison

                Done some tweeking, switching from a 4-4-2 to a 4-3-3 (Brooks > King essentially):

                Heaton
                VvD | Laporte | Ward | Gibson
                Salah | Sterling | Perez

                Ryan | Dendoncker | Noble | Diop

                Hoping for Gibson to either move on or Maguire > Man U, Tarkowski > Leicester to make Gibson 1st choice.

                Any feedback much appreciated!

                Do we think Richarlison will start with a bang again and then go missing after a couple of months again? Seems to be turning up in RMTs but also considered a differential still

                  Personally, I believe so, especially if a RW and/or striker are signed.
