Martial furthers FPL cause as Man United defence improves

Wolves 1-1 Manchester United

Goals: Rúben Neves (£5.5m) | Anthony Martial (£7.6m)

Assists: Joao Moutinho (£5.5m) | Marcus Rashford (£8.6m)

Penalty miss: Paul Pogba (£8.6m)

Penalty save: Rui Patrício (£5.0m)

Bonus Points: Moutinho x3, Patrício x2, Neves x1, Rashford x1

Manchester United’s key attacking assets delivered points on Monday night to add further evidence to suggestions they can be important Fantasy options this season.

After Anthony Martial (£7.6m) and Marcus Rashford (£8.6m) got attacking returns at home to a poor Chelsea defence last weekend, the pair were snapped up in their droves for Gameweek 2.

312,546 Fantasy managers snapped up the England international while 232,598 signed Martial.

Despite concerns that they might not be able to replicate Gameweek 1 form against a Wolves side that often raised its game against top-six opposition last season, Manchester United were the better side for much of the Monday night contest.

Martial now has two goals in as many Premier League matches for Manchester United this season

They dominated possession and, even though they did not fashion as many opportunities as Rashford and Martial owners would have liked, their quality still shone through.

Manchester United’s only goal of the game came when Martial made a run just left of his centre-forward furrow, spotted by Rashford, and fired high into the net.

Despite two successive games in a row with attacking returns, there are still one or two questions hanging over the appeal of Rashford.

For the second match in a row, he was deployed on the left flank of attacking midfield, acting more often than not as a winger rather than a forward.

While Rashford was still able to link into attacking play well, it might be hard to justify the extra cost compared to Martial, who is being used as the centre-forward with a midfield classification in FPL.

Furthermore, Monday night also demonstrated that Rashford cannot always count on penalties to supplement his attacking returns either.

Despite scoring one last week against Chelsea, Rashford was not considered for the one Paul Pogba (£8.6m) won in the second half at Molineux.

The two players had a quick discussion before the Frenchman took the spot-kick, only to see his powerful effort saved by Rui Patrício (£5.0m).

Another penalty miss for Pogba sparked a post-match media inquisition into Manchester United’s spot-kick set-up

Pogba has now missed four penalties in 2019 while Rashford has scored all four he has ever taken in his career so far.

Understandably, with Manchester United not winning the game, there was a media inquisition at full-time, in which we learned a little more about the penalty situation.

Last week, Rashford insisted there was no penalty taker, although, at Molineux, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed that the Englishman and Pogba form a designated duo.

“The two of them are the designated penalty shooters. It is up to them, there and then who feels that this is mine. Sometimes players just feel that they’re confident enough to score. Paul has scored so many penalties for us and Patrício made a good save. You can see the slides, they’re on the powerpoint. No (it doesn’t change). Not at all. The two of them have been very confident and of course last week Marcus scored a goal, I’m sure he would have liked to take this one but Paul was confident. I like players full of confidence.” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

“Paul wanted to take it. Everyone can miss a penalty. He has scored countless penalties for us and throughout his career. It’s normal to miss one. We forget about that one and we go again. It’s simple. If you want to take it, you take it. But I took one last week so it’s no problem for him to take one this week. Like I said, it’s unfortunate he didn’t score but that’s football.” – Marcus Rashford

While Martial appears not to be in the frame for penalties, the case for his inclusion remains strong.

His goal at Molineux was the 50th of his Manchester United career, with no other colleague netting as many since the Frenchman’s debut in September 2015.

Owners of Manchester United defenders can probably consider themselves very unlucky not to capitalise on a second clean sheet in a row.

The Red Devils were in control for large spells of the game, in contrast to their previous meetings with Wolves.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have typically risen to the occasion against the top six, especially Manchester United, but they were somewhat subdued for most of Monday night.

They largely sat deep in an attempt to soak up pressure in the first half, which did initially limit Rashford and Martial’s ability to use their pace to exploit space.

However, Wolves’ creative midfield players were stifled by Manchester United, meaning that the home side were limited to playing long balls forward.

Harry Maguire was commanding in the air for Manchester United on Monday night

This made life very easy for Harry Maguire (£5.5m) in particular, who won virtually every header all night.

Also making a big impact on Manchester United’s defensive potential this season is Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.5m).

The right-back kept Diogo Jota (£6.5m) quiet and ensured he played a peripheral part in the match.

The Portuguese international will have disappointed his 11.3% ownership as he was forced out very wide for much of Monday night. Two matches in a row without any attacking returns for him and Raúl Jiménez (£7.5m) will certainly give their owners itchy feet especially with Teemu Pukki (£6.7m) rising in popularity.

Jota (left) had a quiet game for Wolves on Monday night

However, there are still mitigating factors for Wolves’ forwards, to some extent. Gameweek 1 saw them play very soon after a 6,000-mile round-trip to Armenia, while it has to be said that Manchester United defended very well on Monday night.

The additions of Maguire and Wan-Bissaka looked to have had a positive effect on the Red Devils’ back-line.

The right-back is also slowly offering more creativity too. In the second half, Wan-Bissaka was making more advanced runs and set up two opportunities for Jesse Lingard (£6.5m).

In the end, the only thing that could breach Manchester United’s defence was a world-class goal from Neves.

Anyone who has ever seen the Portuguese midfielder score for Wolves should have a pretty good idea of what his latest one looked like.

Joao Moutinho (£5.5m) played a ball to him on the edge of the box which he stroked marvellously into the top corner off the crossbar to a roaring Molineux ovation.

Neves scored a trademark goal against Manchester United

While such a goal will have frustrated owners of Manchester United defenders, it won’t be every week they face arguably the best finisher from distance in the Premier League.

Wolves certainly pushed the Red Devils in the closing stages, buoyed by Neves’ goal, but Solskjaer’s men held on for the point.

It makes for encouraging clean sheet potential when Crystal Palace come to Old Trafford in Gameweek 3.

Finally, there are some concerns over Matt Doherty’s (£6.0m) fitness after he limped off at half-time.

There were reports that the right wing-back was struggling in the warm-up but according to the local press, Nuno said Doherty would be “okay tomorrow.”

His departure at the interval allowed Adama Traore (£5.0m) to replace him and it was the pacey wide-man who was the spark for Wolves coming back into the game.

“Traore was able to impact the game directly. We keep trusting him, keep giving him chances to make his impact.” – Nuno Espirito Santo

    I don't recall prices rising this quickly last season? Felt forced into picking up KDB before I can't afford him.

    Took a -4 this week to do Perez, Siggy and VVD to Ceballos, KDB and AWB.

    1. xHaTr
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I actually seem to remember prices rising even quicker last season. Surprised that Pukki is still only 6.7 to be honest

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Can only assume that there is a fixed/absolute element in the price calculations, and more overall players means faster changes

    3. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      We've only had around 15 players rise in price, not too bad considering we're approaching GW3?

  2. JenkoJunko
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Morning all! Started well and now have 2ft but worried I'm wanting to use the both and its just needless tinkering you know!

    Am I just jumping on all the bandwagons with the below transfers and not just keeping faith?

    A (King or Jota)
    Out: Robbo / Mcneil / King or Jota
    In: AWB / Martial / Pukki

    B
    Out: Robbo / Mcneil / Greenwood
    In: Burn / Ceballos / Pukki

    B is a little random but does free up alot of dosh. Any advice and help really welcome. Ta

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

      A for me!

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

        Thanks! For King or Jota?

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

          Hmm tough call. King being on pens seems to keep being a factor this season as well. I think he’ll be ticking over every other/third match

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

            Yeah that was my thinking as well! I quite like the thought of having Pukki, King and Jota as that gives you alot of flexibility.

  3. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Hit the WC button. How’s it looking?

    Ryan
    VVD AWB Zinchenko
    Salah Sterling KdB Trossard Mount
    Rashford Pukki

    Button Lundstram Wickham Rico

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Mount is a big no no for me

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        How come?

    2. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      The players are all good. But I think the structure of your midfield could get you in trouble/leave you less flexible – how bout going Mount or Tross to Cantwell or Dendo?

      Also, there is the question of wether you'd like a Spurs player or two.

    3. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Probably around 30 GWs until you next WC - I wouldn't go with two passengers on the bench personally.

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I agree with this but very difficult to do so.

    4. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Buendia over Mount imo.

      Still dubious about Ryan and Brighton but it’s started ok so may be decent. At least get Kelly as the other 4.0 just for likely price rise this week. Don’t see either him or Rico getting much action

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I’ve had Buendia from the start but right now I prefer to wait. When Norwich fixtures get better move to him gw 6/7 for either Trossard or Mount.

  4. Agger

    A little tactical piece of why De Bruyne is playing in a more dangerous position this season.

    Case for Martial

    Anthony Martial this season + last 2 seasons in pl

    - 3365 mins = 37 matches (per 90 min)

    -22 goals 10 assists

    So Martial was involved in 32 goals in last 37 matches for united

    - Playing OOP Striker at bargain price

    He is fpl gold when he's a starter which he is this season and for 7.5 great option.. Agree?

    1. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yup. Happy Martial owner for last 2 weeks her 🙂

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Case against. Goal last 2 matches 19 and 20 bps no bonus points

      1. aapoman
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        So? Salah scores big points and still gets no bonuses. Do you think he is still bad?

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Martial isn't Salah

          1. Kiwivillan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            United aren't Liverpool

            1. aapoman
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Well for 4.5 less you can't argue he isn't good value for money

              1. Kiwivillan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Have him on WC don't trust United to do Chelsea every week and if they do think Rashford will be hogging the points

    3. Rains of Castamere
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I was starting to think he might be a trap... but you can't argue with that. I'm sold.

    4. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Scored bulk points as LAM now playing #9

    5. niko mate
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Obviously a great pick. I started with him. When United failed to sign new attacker and Lukaku leaving, Martial became great option.

    6. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      If you extrapolate on his last 2 seasons as you have alluded to.. he is a must have. If he plays 3000 minutes he could eclipse 200 points and rival Mane/Salah. 7.5 OOP for United.. all aboard!

    7. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Case for Rashford:

      >Now on pens
      >Better probability of a spread of points(G+A)
      >Higher chance of bonus points

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Common sense right here

      2. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Both with their fixtures and they looked pretty decent last night

    8. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I prefer to look at his returns since Ole took charge, rather than in different tactical systems. In the 16 games he's featured in, he's returned 5 goals and 3 assists.

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        5 goals = 25 points, 3 assists = 9 points. Let’s say he plays 60mins in each = 32 points. Tentatively we will say he gets 5 bonus points and also 5 clean sheets = 10 points. Now extrapolating that over 38 GW’s = 181 points. Not bad for a 7.5 with the potential to be even better in his current role wouldn’t you say?

        1. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          At it's very simplest, he's the centre forward in a very attacking team and will get good service.

        2. avfc82
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I agree, there's lots to like and he's still at an age where he should improve.

  6. Make United Great Again
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Gary Neville’s post match analysis was disgraceful last night.

    1. Steve Stiffler
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      shocking, didnt praise Neves goal, Patricios pen save, was a decent penalty these things happen

    2. Rains of Castamere
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Someone clearly took a penalty off him when he was about 8 years old and never recovered.

    3. Visionaries
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yep, very embarrassing as a Utd fan. He's trying to create a storm in a teacup. Seen that happen with pens millions of times without the circus. plus was a decent pen imo

  7. Murder On Zidanesfloor
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Barkley, Robbo, Wilson > Cantwell, Awb, (k)ane?

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Forgot to mention, for a -8. Thanks

    2. Steve Stiffler
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      na

    3. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Marginal at best imo. Feels like a minus 8 for a one week captain that weakens your team overall.

      Wilson is going ok and looks value at 8.0 and Robbo will return nicely too - still better value than AWB imo (have both myself). Don’t buy into Cantwell yet - he did next to nothing last season so he’s not a factor for me,

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        So what do you reckon? Just get rid of barkley and wait for next week?

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

          I’m on Kane but feeling the vibes from Cardiff last time out. 🙂 I’m looking at him and Sterling as my long term captaincy stand bys - I’m assuming perhaps wrongly you have Mo

          Can you reach either United attacker?Think they could be very decent captain options against Palace and look great for value right now.

  8. Goat
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Who would you captain?
    A. Pickford (avl)
    B. Siggy (avl)

    1. Rains of Castamere
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C) Kane.

      Otherwise, Siggy.

      1. Goat
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        On Kane for FPL thanks. Forgot to mention this is for the Sky game

    2. xHaTr
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Pickford? Is this some sort of joke?

      1. Goat
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Sorry it’s for the Sky game

    3. Klein
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Neither. Sky game different from fpl?

      1. Goat
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah you captain a player for each matchday. So you can only captain a villa or Everton player and the above are the only 2 I have in the game

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

    Bottomed

    A) Mount + Zinchenko
    Or
    B Martial + alternating Lund/Kelly depending on fixtures

  10. thomashl
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Ah, realise that I can do all the transfers I'd like to be happy with my team for -12.

    To pull or not to pull the WC trigger...

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

      Would be something like this:

      Perez Wilson Vardy -> Martial Pukki Kane

      (Already did Robbo -> AWB)

    2. Visionaries
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I personally wouldn't ever do a -12. I'd either do 1 or 2 and wait a week or 2 for the other transfers or just trigger your WC

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

        Cheers! I wouldn't either – I'd do max -4 and thought about spacing them out over several gameweeks, problem is I'll be priced out fairly soon at this rate. Leaning towards triggering it, actually.

        1. Visionaries
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I triggered mine last night. Although I feel guilty about it I have a team I'm happy with going forward and caught varius price rises

  11. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Opinions on Max Aarons? Attacking fullback at 4.5m. He is also nailed and Norwich only conceded in the 89th minute vs Newcastle.

    They play some exciting football...

    Still early doors but reckon Norwich will avoid the drop this season.

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

      ...and avoid clean sheets as well

    2. clownbot2000
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      based on last seasons championship stats he got 2 goals + 6 assists so pretty good although similar to Basham/O'Connell of Sheff Utd at the same price, & Sheff Utd conceded far fewer goals than Norwich last season.
      why not - worth a punt although I guess you'll want to rotate with another cheap DEF/5th MID

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Newcastle had two very good chances to score before Norwich did. I think Norwich are good going forward, but not very good at the back.

  12. SantaCruz87
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    1) Martial and Barnes

    2) Rashford and McGinn

    Which option you would take? Thanks in advance

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

      The former, given that Martial is cheaper, gets extra points and is their unrivalled no 9 at this point. Also keen on Rash but can't have them all

    2. Aubamazette
      • 9 Years

    Anything anyone would change about my wildcard team?

    Pope

    Digne. . AWB. Zinchenko

    Salah . Sterling. Martial. Ceballos Lanzini

    Kane. Pukki

    Subs. Button. Lundstram. Kelly. Greenwood

    1. Goat

    Currently have:

    Pope/Heaton
    Digne/VVD/Zinch/Lund/KWP
    Drinkwater/Salah/Sterling/Martial/Perez
    King/Vardy/Origi

    2FTs this week; was thinking of taking an extra hit and going:

    King, Drinkwater and Zinch out
    Cantwell, Pukki and Dunk in

    Thoughts?

        Great, thanks.

      Absolutely no idea what to do with this. 2 FTs & 0.5 ITB

      Ryan Button

      Robbo VVD Digne Zinchenko Lundstram

      Salah Sterling Martial Perez Dendoncker

      Wilson King Greenwood

      1. Steve Stiffler
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        King to Pukki maybe just

      2. CONNERS
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I'd use 1 ft to move on either Wilson or King to Pukki personally. The rest is fine.

      3. Visionaries
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I'd be tempted to do something like,
        Robbo, Wilson & Perez > 5.0, Pukki & KDB -4
        Or just King & Wilson out

    3. Steve Stiffler
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      gonna be a bit of a benching headache this weekend I think... Pick two out of:

      Montoya, Denkonker, Pieters, Wilson

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

        Wilson and Den

      2. CONNERS
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I'd play Montoya and Dendoncker. Doubt Wilson will get anything against City and can see Burnley conceding.

      3. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        2 to play? I'd go Wilson and Montoya. Tough one though

        1. Steve Stiffler
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          yeah 2 to play, gonna be annoying trying to decide yeah

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

      Used my 2 ft, am I good to go? I’ve been contemplating wc but better to keep It for now?

      Pope
      TAA VVD Digne
      Salah(Vc) Sterling(c) KDB Perez Cantwell
      Pukki King

      Montoya Greenwood Rico

      Is KWP nailed now? How has he looked the first couple of weeks?

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Aurier is a threat to him. He has been solid though

      2. But to who Chris Kamara
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Not great

      3. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        No

    6. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Feel like I need to get KDB in, only a matter of time before he starts adding goals to all these assist. 9.6 is ridiculous value

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        looks like it

      2. Steve Stiffler
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        yeah i brought him in last night, downgraded TAA (already have VVD)

        1. Bubz
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Who did you downgrade him to?

          1. Steve Stiffler
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Pieters for Burnley, did well vs Southampton and there fixtures are nice enough

            1. Visionaries
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              I did this same move. Not regretting it

      3. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        What is your plan to get him, Bubz?

        1. Bubz
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Moura out for him, need to free up money though

    7. olidooley
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Hey all....on this with 2 FTs...

      Pope
      Robertson VVD Zinchenko Digne
      Salah Sterling KDB Perez
      Jota Wood

      Button Lundstram Dendonker Greenwood

      Perez/Wood TO Pukki/Mount??

      Someone in my ML just managed to delete themselves out of the league. They have now rejoined and are sat waiting as a new entry - will they get the first couple of weeks points they had when they re-join?

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yes they will retain their points

        1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          That saves some pain, thanks Irbox.

      2. El Lobito 10
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Someone in mine did this too. What is wrong with people

    9. Werner Bremen
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I can go to KDB right now. But tempted with Son as a punt, what do you say?

      1. El Lobito 10
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        KdB

        1. Werner Bremen
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Haha you are always there to answer me that, aren't you

          1. El Lobito 10
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            KdB

    10. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Every move I want make is out by 0.1m. Very annoying.

      1. Crisnel Ronessi
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Maybe you should've been a bit faster

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah, not really paying any attention this year.

      2. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I know how you feel, every move I want to make is out by 1.5m 🙁

    11. yakirh
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Who to start?
      A. Cathcart
      B. Perez

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        B

      2. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Pérez.

    12. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Who to start?

      A. King (MCI)
      B. Montoya (SOU)

      1. xHaTr
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Tough call. Think of it like this, Bournemouth could play appalling and get battered for 90 minutes, but King could still end up with 6 points. Brighton could play outstanding all game but Montoya end up with 2 points

    13. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Why is Robertson so much nearer a drop than TAA?

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        TAA has 1 assist to his name

    14. Ronnies
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Best pick ?

      A) Robertson - McGinn - Kelly

      B) VVD - Cantwell - Zinchenko

      Thanks guys.
