Opinion

Is it time for FPL managers to consider a City triple-up in attack?

Fantasy Premier League managers have plenty of big decisions to make ahead of Gameweek 4, with the first international break of 2019/20 looming after its completion.

We’ve put together another panel of top Fantasy managers to help you with any dilemmas you may have.

We were inundated with questions again this week but there were several recurring topics, particularly Manchester City’s attack, Teemu Pukki, Chelsea assets, the Ashley Barnes bandwagon, Anthony Martial replacements – and Wildcards.

WHO’S ON THE PANEL THIS WEEK?

FPL General – Contributor to the Scout site who has three finishes inside the top 400 in the last five seasons and who has a huge following on Twitter. General – aka Mark – also appears regularly on the official FPL Show.

Ben Crabtree – A former FPL winner, who claimed the title in 2016/17 without using a single Liverpool player.

Ted/Rotation’s Alter Ego – Moderator and the site’s recently appointed Assistant Community Manager. Ted finished 633rd in the world last season.

Bowstring the Carp – Two top 1k finishes (126 and 754) and one of our best community article writers. Recently wrote some excellent pieces on Pep Guardiola and his tactics.

QUESTIONS

Senor Lesfab: Is it worth having Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Sergio Aguero going forward?

FPL General: Owning all three would eat up around a third of your overall budget, it just feels like too much. I would rather spread the funds around the rest of my squad for more balance rather than going all-in on the City attackers. Aguero looks great for Brighton at home in Gameweek 4, but he’s likely to share game-time with Gabriel Jesus again after the break. It’s De Bruyne and Sterling for me, with no space for Aguero.

Bowstring the Carp: Tough one. Yes, since they have an easy set of games in their next four fixtures. There are two drawbacks though. So much money concentrated into three players of the same side could weaken the overall team structure. Also, you will not be able to cover their defence – Man City have the highest odds of keeping clean sheets over the next few weeks. So that’s something to consider. 


Farmerfat: Is taking a few early hits to get your team right better than an early Wildcard?

Rotation’s Alter Ego: Usually, my criteria for a Wildcard is multiple small changes that clean out the deadwood plus a big premium player switch or a formation change. The Wildcard is the most powerful chip in my opinion, so there’s no chance I’ll be rushing into using it unless I really think it’s needed, though I am a particularly dull manager.

If you’re just weighing up a -8 so you can get like Mason Mount and Teemu Pukki in, I wouldn’t bother with a Wildcard. If you need a -8 to get someone like Pukki and Mohamed Salah in, plus five to eight smaller changes around the sides, then go for it.

It’s hard to call it outside of a team-by-team basis, but my general rule would be to take the hits if it will fix your team and save the Wildcard for when you really need it. If you really feel like you need it, use it – but you shouldn’t let anyone (myself included) decide that for you; it’s your team and your decision.

Ben Crabtree: I’ve mixed my usage of a Wildcard each season and prefer to play the situation rather than plan it in before the season starts. Early in the season it can become very tempting to use it if you don’t have many of the players who have flown out the blocks but I would use caution and consider that each week, new players that haven’t returned yet will score points. Sebastien Haller is a great example, and next week there will be another.

It is difficult to recommend a certain choice of use or not use without seeing your team but I think a -8 is ok to take if there really are transfers that need to be made. If you’re looking at a -12, I think Wildcarding would be better and you’d likely sort out a few lower priority moves too.

However, the main consideration is whether these hits or Wildcard are needed at all. Is it just chasing points? Hypothetically, if you Wildcarded after Gameweek 1, then again after Gameweek 2, then again now, how different would your teams be? If every week the ideal Wildcard team changes then it’s worth holding for now, to wait for more information on player and team form and also letting the international break pass by.


Superkitten: Short and sweet, is Teemu Pukki essential?

FPL General: No player is essential but if I didn’t own Pukki he’d be my number one priority this week ahead of that West Ham fixture. The party is only getting started.

Bowstring the Carp: “Essential” is a strong term, but with his high ownership he will certainly do a lot of damage if you don’t have him. It’s nearly an insurance policy at this rate if you’ve missed his hauls, as opposed to a way of making ground up in the rankings. Better safe than sorry even if you don’t think he’ll keep it up. 


MichaelJajo: Is it worth joining the Ashley Barnes bandwagon now or should I get him after the Liverpool game?

Rotation’s Alter Ego: I jumped fully on last week, but admittedly it was mainly because I couldn’t afford entry to the Pukki Party. However, I’m pretty happy with my situation – which isn’t easy after missing out on 35 points and £0.4m.

Liverpool haven’t been the same unparalleled defensive unit that they were last season: they’re mid-table for shots in the box conceded and with Adrian in goal, they look far less secure at the back. Can Barnes capitalise on some shaky defending? Possibly. No team has made more defensive errors this season than Liverpool, so it’s definitely not the same daunting fixture that it was last term.

The question is, where are you coming from? If it’s someone like Diogo Jota, I’d be making the switch. If someone with a better fixture, I’d be happy to hold a week – you shouldn’t miss out on too much. If on a Wildcard – I wouldn’t bother booking in a transfer down the line and would jump on now. After all, no striker has had more goal attempts than Mr Ashley Barnes…


Owen Hughes: Which Chelsea assets are worth a punt?

Ben Crabtree: Before the season it looked likely that some Chelsea assets would emerge given the inexpensive prices across their whole squad. After three Gameweeks, Mason Mount stands out as the best option given his returns in two games and also a few shots he had in the Super Cup which showed his eye for goal. Before the season started it looked like it could be a close call between him and Ross Barkley but Barkley’s minutes have been mixed and he doesn’t come close to Mount when it comes to a desire to get goals.

Elsewhere, I’m not really sold on Tammy Abraham as I think he will rotate with Olivier Giroud. Pedro has looked sharp but has a vulnerability with little injuries and costs £0.8m more than Mount without showing enough to feel he’s worth the extra.

Chelsea’s defence could offer great value or could flatter to decieve all season. Kurt Zouma at £5.0m could be great alongside Antonio Rudiger but I want to see some clean sheet potential first which still looks a way off. For this reason, Emerson’s viability also takes a hit. At £0.5m more you get a lot more attacking output so it’d be worth the investment given that he seems to have won the left-back spot. Again, the lack of clean sheet promise keeps him glued to the watchlist at the moment.

With Sheffield United at home up next, this could be a time to get on a Chelsea defender early, but unless a defensive transfer is urgent it may be best to monitor the potential until a run of playing low-scoring teams starts in Gameweek 7.

Rotation’s Alter Ego: The simple, short answer is Mason Mount. Larger punts are Tammy Abraham and Emerson Palmieri.

Mount is looking to be a fantastic pick at his price bracket. At just £6.2m, Mount has played every minute of the first three weeks despite the threat of rotation from Ross Barkley and not only played, but thrived. Out of all Chelsea players, he’s had the most crosses, the most chances created and the most goal attempts. It extends to a broader scale too – out of all midfielders, he again has had the highest goal attempts, level with Raheem Sterling. Furthermore, he doesn’t fair too poorly in the other categories mentioned either when looking at all midfielders – he’s sixth and joint-eighth for crosses and chances created respectively.

He’s certainly passed the eye test too. Chelsea fans have fallen in love with his attack-minded movement and impressive work rate that has seen him frequently picking up the ball in dangerous areas and due to this he’s taken his goal tally up to two already – though it must be said that one was from some sleepy defending and the other against a leaky defence. With Barkley seemingly second choice (third when Ruben Loftus-Cheek returns), he could be a great little punt.

The other two options that interest me are Abraham and Emerson.

I’ve talked frequently about Abraham’s finishing not being clinical enough, but that certainly wasn’t the case against Norwich. Two superbly taken goals should see him take the forward role with a little more security after the more clinical and powerful Olivier Giroud was preferred versus Leicester and Liverpool. Question is, was his improved finishing a one-off? If so, we could see Abraham return to being a team player, in a less selfish role that Lampard loved to see in preseason. If not though, he could be an excellent top six forward at a kind price.

Emerson is a player that I’m really, really interested in. Typically, we’ve said that Marcos Alonso is the attack-minded left-back and Emerson the more defensive one, but it seems Emerson has set out to completely disprove this. Whilst still doing his defensive duty, Emerson has racked up six goal attempts (one being a big chance), ten dribbles and 12 crosses. Granted he’s picked up no bonuses, but with Chelsea’s highest baseline bps he could be looking at some down the line. Alonso is the major threat, who may take some of the easier games away from him (though Emerson played versus Sheffield United), but Emerson is comfortably first choice otherwise. If Chelsea tighten up at the back and start getting some clean sheets, he’ll be high on my watchlist.


St Stephen: Who is the best replacement for Anthony Martial if he is out for several weeks?

Bowstring the Carp: I think Mason Mount is the standout replacement – he provides great value, is in good form, has okay fixtures and frees up cash. If you feel like punting, I think Wilfried Zaha, David Silva or Dani Ceballos could also be worth the gamble. Depending on formation, you might downgrade Martial to someone like Todd Cantwell and add another striker up top like Sebastien Haller, Tammy Abraham or Teemu Pukki as an alternative.

FPL General: If Mason Mount is passed fit for the weekend, that’s where I’d go from Martial. If the Frenchman is ruled out of Gameweek 4 it doesn’t mean you have to sell him though, you could just bench him and hope that he recovers in time for Gameweek 5. Transfers are precious.

    What to do with this team?

    Pope
    Robbo, VVD, Digne, KWP
    Salah, Sterling, Ceballos, McGinn
    Kane, Pukki

    Button, Lundstram, Dendoncker, Greenwood

    1FT, 0.8 ITB

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

      Save the trade. 2FTs after the intl break could be very useful.

    2. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Kane to Haller and Ceballos to KDB

    3. Don Van Vliet
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd switch one of your Liverpool defenders for a City asset.

    4. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Maybe use the 1FT now and then WC after the IB. I would go KWP -> Zinchenko

    5. Squib
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Similar position but with Zinch instead of KWP and TAA not Robbo.
      My shopping list includes Mount, KDB (or Aguero for 1-2 weeks), possibly Barnes and I think I am certain I will get Haller. My gut also says Son. But this will take some surgery.

      The upshot for me is stick or twist with Kane.

  2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    No

  3. cuppatea78
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Pope
    Zinchenko - Digne - Hanley
    Mane KDB Sterling Cantwell Martial
    Kane Pukki

    Subs: Button Lundstrum Greenwood Dunk

    Looking to sell Martial this week so I can get Salah next week Which live would you do?

    A) Martial > Mcginn
    B) Martial > Mount
    C) Martial > Harry Wilson
    D) Martial > Other

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wait for now. B if injured. Also play Lund over Hanley (goal threat)

  4. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Thoughts on this wildcard team?
    Swap Lund and Cantwell to Guilbert and Dendonker?
    Or get in Tammy for Barnes and downgrade Mount?
    Or stick?

    Pope
    TAA Soyuncu Digne Lunds Rico
    Salah Sterling KDB Mount Cantwell
    Barnes Haller Pukki

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years

      1. It's good, very template. Nothing wrong with it except having to bench Cantwell every week
      2. No
      3. No
      4. yes

    2. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Stick

    3. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      thanks both. Feels bang on template but the players all impressed during MOTD!

    4. Tshelby
      • 9 Years

            decent. Not sure whether to go Zinc or Digne!

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

              Same here
              Hopefully City plays Zinchenko

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

      Stick. Great team, I've got 12 of the same players

  5. Debauchy
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    No

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

      Kun , Sterling and KDB too much if you're having Salah too.
      Its KDB v Kun basically with Sterling a set , GL

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

        Kun, Salah, Sterling team that would be lovely but it's so unbalanced than for me. So it has to be KdB, Sterling and Salah for me.

        Some good budget strikers also available with Haller, Pukki, Barnes,.. and with KdB it's an easy switch to Son, Martial,.. if needed

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

          I have on WC looks great

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

            Yeah I'm really jealous. I also want to play my WC but I think it's too soon and my team is okay enough for this gw.

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

              I was forced really . gl hold firm

  6. Coys96
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Need Mane to get a brace on Saturday and a Salah blank

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

      Gr8

    2. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years

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

      After No Gain Kane ?

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        no, after a Kane hat trick and a 3-0 win 😀

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

          lol , Arse goona trash you boys

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

    Is Martial > Mount and Kane > Aguero worth a -8?

    Only having Sterling as a city attack atm and don't feel it is enough

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

      KDB* not Sterling

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

      try zero city attack... I used to be good at this game 🙂 haha

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

        ps I wouldn't do it

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Definitely not, -4 at most

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

      It doesn't seem like a percentage play.

    5. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Its not enough but - 8 a bit steep when you could Cpt Sterling .
      If you think Kun hauls then sure do it , great fixtures follow

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

        I don't have Sterling, it's just KDB I have

    6. NOSLEEPTILLBROOKLYN
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wary of a big fall off though considering the fixtures and a Martial potentially being injured

  8. Adambailey7
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Kane & cabellos

    Or switch to

    Barnes & de Bruyne

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

      For free?

      1. Adambailey7
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        No would lose -8. Don’t no whether I’m being to hasty. Should I wait a couple of weeks?

        1. Coys96
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          yes. wait

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

          Wouldn't go for that -8. Kane likes to score against Arsenal and I can see Barnes blank this weekend so I would wait

          1. Adambailey7
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Cheers guys

    2. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Stick

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

    City triple attack never worked for me.
    Raz KDB enough i guess

  10. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    one final thought for a wildcard team.

    who do you prefer Laporte or Barnes in the starting 11?
    442 or 343

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Barnes

    2. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Laporte. But its boring ik

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

      Laporte

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

      Laporte I think . with MC having such a run of good fixtures

    5. Squib
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      This week Laporte

    6. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'm riding on Zinchenko until he becomes rotation risk.
      Laporte too expensive for me

    7. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Very similar debate if I WC. Longer term Laporte really is set and forget.

      Just boring...

    8. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Laporte

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

    Perez or Martial to KDB?

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

      Wait on news on Martial

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

        Tough with Perez looking like dropping tonight

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

          Would get Perez out than. Who do you have on your bench?

        2. Debauchy
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          The odd -1 in the bigger scheme should not dictate your moves. TV is not all that and you can make it up through the season. Go for points , value will follow

          1. money face bandwagon
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Exactly

    2. Rik Waller
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wait on injury news innit. Even if it's just minor, I'd maybe still sell Perez

    3. Squib
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Perez in a hearbeat

  12. Rik Waller
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone considering VVD > Laporte if they have Robbo/TAA also?

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I would, but if I had Robbo I'd take him out and leave VVD. I'd keep TAA

  13. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Will Matip continue to start most games?

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Probably

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

      For the most part. He is first choice ahead of Gomez until something unexpected happens

    3. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Has looked pretty good I would think so

    4. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      This has me thinking now. I'm always just short in defence when putting a wildcard together. I definitely want City & Liverpool defence and kinda forgot Matip was an option. I like that he doesn't get cameo's so even if he doesn't start, it's not too bad if your bench is half decent.

  14. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Which move to fund KDB?

    Would need to start player in GW4

    A) KWP to Soyuncu
    B) King to Wesley
    C) Montoya to Kelly

    1. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A

  15. Greasy Grealish Gang
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Has anyone seen Bournemouth's two latest matches? Is Harry Wilson worth keeping an eye on?

    1. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Keep an eye on but not to bring it yet. Similar to neves - only really scores from outside the box. Better options elsewhere

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

      Not nailed. Scored a really nice goal against City. If he keeps on getting starts he could be a nice option

    Aguero:

    BHA (H)
    NOR (A)
    WAT (H)
    EVE (A)
    WOL (H)
    CRY (A)
    AVL (H)
    SOU (H)

    Salah

    BUR (A)
    NEW (H)
    CHE (A)
    SHU (A)
    LEI (H)
    MUN (A)
    TOT (H)
    AVL (A)

    City fixtures are incredible, not only next four.
    Aguero can get some hattricks eventually.

    On WC and I'm triple up

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      City 5 home games in next 8
      LIV 5 away game in next 8

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

      City fixtures are really mouthwatering.

    3. Rik Waller
      • 6 Years

      Jesus though

      1. Coys96

        This

        1. The Legend Squad
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Kun only needs 60-70 mins for a hatty. Jesus won’t start.

          Kun will be in everyone’s teams in a few GWs

      2. OPTA FPL
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Aguero started 99% games last year when fit
        At the end of season Salah should outscore Kun but in the medium term I think Kun is better, they are same price so you can switch by 2 ft

  18. Aftermath

    Set on this team. Pretty template WC but I reckon this team is setup well for the coming weeks. Thoughts?

    Pope
    TAA Zinchenko Boly
    Salah KDB Sterling Mount
    Pukki Haller Barnes

    Button Cantwell Lundstram Kelly

      Lack of digne

  19. Rolls-Royce

    Want to get Lanzini in this week, but his lack of shots is a worry, which means would only have to rely on the assists for points.

    Do you think he will get a fair amount of goals this season? WHam fans?

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Think I prefer Mount over him if you don't already have him.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Not really convinced with Chelsea. Mount still finding his feet in PL, while Lanzini is proven. I'll wait and see, could easily switch to Mount later. Moreover, I like Norwich's fixture over S United.

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

          With Kun coming in Im having both , problem solved 😆

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            I'm inclining towards Kane + Martial -> Argentine duo -8

    2. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      WH fans can confirm but think he will be on pens if Noble not starting he's much like a mini KDB so assists and Baps will keep him ticking well at the price imo

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers, let's hope he can get an odd goal here and there.

      2. Root
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Haller not second in line for penalties? His record is 23/24.

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Could be this.

    Is King to Barnes worth (-4)?

    Already planning on taking a 4pt hit for:

    Martial,KWP to KDB,Soyuncu

    1. L S P
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      no, not worth it

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Nope, I'm keeping King another week

  21. Zlat-man

    -Shaw, KWP, Martial, Mount-

    • I have all four! And no ft.
    • I do have 3 playing bench player.

    1. -4 for Shaw
    2. -8 for Shaw and kwp
    3. No hit, hope atleast one play from the crooked 4

    2. g40steve

      I am waiting, if Mounts flag disappears may swap out?

  23. Tshelby
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Current team :

    Button, Pope
    Digne, VvD, Laporte, Montoya, Balbuena
    Salah, Sterling, Martial, Cantwell, Dendoncker
    King, Pukki, Vardy

    Team that I could have if I hit the WC button

    Button, Pope
    Soyuncu, Kelly, Laporte, VvD, Lundstram
    Sterling, Salah, Mount, Cantwell, Dendoncker
    Barnes, Kun, Pukki

    0.2 ITB

    Worth it?

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Team 1 seems fine, Digne+

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

        Want Kun really bad but yeah I need to stick to my current team.

    Is this worth a -8?
    Wickham, Martial, Trossard to Lanzini, Haller, Cantwell?

    For me this week it would be a question of who scores the most from Martial/Trossard/Lundstram+8p or Lanzini/Haller/Cantwell?

    Go for it or just do a #4?

    1. FC nelo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      -4

    2. L S P
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i don't think WHM is worthy of an offensive double up.

      if martial definitely ruled out, maybe just martial->lanzini

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      double WHU too risky, only bring in one of them

    4. FC nelo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Sounds like fair advice, tänka!

      1. FC nelo
        • 7 Years

        Thanks*, autocorrect...

      Its not only abt 1 week. It should really be looking whether the -8 is worth it over the next few gws

    Best Max 4.8 def? (Except from Lundstram)

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

      Peters ,Soyu

    2. g40steve

      Mings

  27. Uns95

    Ederson or Wesley? If I get Ederson I will downgrade Wesley to Greenwood, if I keep Wesley I will have Pope in goal.

    Can see City hauling the clean sheets over the next few game weeks and am unsure on whether Wesley will score highly (Pukki/Haller are my other strikers).

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Can't be starting Greenwood. What's your bench like?

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

    1) Perez + King + Pukki with Cantwell and Dendocker on bench in a 433 or
    2) Martial + Mcginn + Pukki with Wickham and Dendocker on bench in a 442

    A) Mcginn
    B) Barkley
    C) Cebellos
    D) Cantwell (as 4th mid in a 442) + 1.2m. Will have pukki already

  29. Barca_Rover

    Whats the update on Martial and Mount ?

    1. Pukki Blinders
