How the top 10k FPL managers set up for Gameweek 5

A number of Fantasy Premier League managers inside the top 10,000 deployed key chips for Gameweek 5.

5.2% of them opted to use the Wildcard over the international break, while 2.6% went for a Triple Captain.

With each passing Gameweek, the top 10k becomes less and less influenced by those who used multiple chips in the earliest rounds.

With Gameweek 5 now in the mix, only 37.9% of those in the highest echelon of FPL have deployed two chips.

12.7% have used three while 3.8% have already committed four of their chips.

As things stand, 32.2% of those in the top 10k have now used their Wildcard and we can also take a look at which players were the most popular in the Gameweek 5 editions.

By far, the most fashionable option in Gameweek 5 Wildcards among top 10k managers is Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne (£9.8m).

He has been selected in 77.2% of such squads, 7% more than any other player – which made for plenty of frustration when it was revealed he was on the bench for the trip to Norwich City.

Behind the Belgian is, not surprisingly, budget Sheffield United defender John Lundstram (£4.2m), who has been racking up regular game-time in the Blades’ central midfield trio.

Interestingly, it would appear that a number of Fantasy managers at the top level are opting for a double-pivot of bargain bucket defenders.

41.8% of top 10k managers who Wildcarded for Gameweek 5 also included Crystal Palace’s injured centre-back Martin Kelly (£4.1m) in their side.

That brings the total of top 10k managers in possession of both Lundstram and Kelly to 23.7%.

It is clear that the double savings in defence were influenced by interest in the more expensive Manchester City attackings.

Raheem Sterling (£12.3m) was snapped up by 66.2% of top 10k Wildcarders for Gameweek 5 with 58.4% going for Sergio Aguero (£12.1m), making him the most-fashionable forward in such squads.

Interestingly, a total of 30.2% of the top 10k Wildcarders opted for both players in their brand new squads, although the two combined for just one attacking return against Norwich.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m), who scored nine points in Saturday’s lunch-time game also features in the Wildcard picture here with 65.4% of those wielding that chip among the top 10k retaining faith in him.

The 35.7% who brought in Tammy Abraham (£7.2m) will be very happy with his huge haul away at Wolves and it’s interesting to see that he was preferred to fellow goal-scorer Mason Mount (£6.4m), who did not feature among the most popular midfield assets.

Instead, the man in that price bracket who drew the attention of Wildcarders in the top 10k was Daniel James (£6.2m), although he blanked against Leicester while Mount found the net late-on at Wolves.

We saw that Gameweek 3 Wildcards at this level largely featured a disposal of Liverpool defenders, but they are clearly back in fashion despite failing to keep a second clean sheet of the campaign against Newcastle.

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.1m) and Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) both feature among the most popular defenders in top 10k Wildcards, the right-back selected in 45.9% of these and his centre-back colleague in 29.9%.

Gameweek 5 Captains

Meanwhile, there was a big difference between the top 10k and everybody else when it came to choosing captains for Gameweek 5.

Those in the upper echelons largely favoured Aguero, with 39.1% of them handing the Manchester City man the armband.

Salah was backed by 30.9% and Sterling 19.2%.

The vote was much more evenly split from an overall perspective with Salah just about the most popular with a share of 23.3%.

Sterling was just behind him on 21.5% while Aguero was off in third place with 15.4%.

Not surprisingly given Norwich’s situation coming into Gameweek 5, there were also a number of Triple Captain chips deployed in the top 10k.

As already mentioned, 2.6% of them played this enhanced captaincy chip.

The majority of these were played on Aguero, 1.2% of those in the top 10k choosing the Manchester City forward, 0.6% on Sterling and 0.6% on Salah.

    Is Robertson > Otamendi a good move to save 1.5M? City have 6 nice fixtures coming up.

    1. The Sociologist
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Do we trust City to keep more clean sheets than Liverpool with Laporte out?

    2. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      No

    3. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yes i do think city will keep cs.

      Not every team is Norwich.

    4. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I think Otamendi could be dropped

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        ...for...?

        1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Fernandinho

          1. Ze_Austin
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            ...because he's a better center-back than Ota? Because he has a better partnership with Stones? Because Otamendi has had bad games almost every time he played this season and last?

            Or why?

            1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Because Otamendi is terrible and Pep trusts Fernandinho and wants to play him more at centre back this season.

              1. Ze_Austin
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Alright then 🙂

              2. Klaren
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                He is better than Stones though, don’t think he’ll be dropped.

              3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Ota has been a title winning CB for pep. He will get a chance to redeem himself

    5. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah

    6. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      City defence a massive problem and Robertson atracking returns.

      Big mistake to do that.

    7. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I would wait a week to confirm that Ota starts..I think he will but its Pep...

  2. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    What on earth should I be doing with this lot

    Pope Button
    Robertson TAA Digne Zinchenko Lundstram
    Salah Sterling Kdb Cantwell Dendoncker
    Pukki Jota Wickham

    2ft 0.7 itb, ideally looking to upgrade Jota but where does the extra money come from?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Get rid of jota and wickham.

    2. Puncheon Guly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Robertson and TAA not really offering value atm. I'd lose on of them and out the money into Dendoncker or Wickham. Abraham perhaps?

  3. Tomerick
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Is Aurier worth a shout now he’s back?

    1. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      You would think so but it’s hard to say with Foyth on his way back and Walker-Peters there too.

    2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Beasty performance. Could be an absolute gem if he nails down a place. I wouldnt get him till he starts one more though

    3. Dont_Win_Friends_With_Salah…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I think he is, as long as you have a playing defender in the bench to cover rotation

    4. Tomerick
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Thanks all

  4. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    2 FTs would you do Mount and Barnes to Ceballos and Abraham this week? Exact cash for the move.

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

    1. All For One
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Hold

    2. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Tbh wouldn’t want rid of Mount or Barnes

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

      Hello bro
      I'm about to turn team into your 😀
      Dunk to Soyuncu on the cards for me. Rolling other FT
      Re your team, I'd keep Barnes this gw at least

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        thanks mate! no idea what move to make!
        Could just Salah to Mane this week to free up some funds!

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

          Can work.
          I'm not a fan of Mane tbh. Would downgrade Digne instead.
          GL 🙂

          1. Rinseboy
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            he's got Sheffield at home next! too good a fixture!

    4. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I would do Mane Tammy in for Salah Barnes. Mount looks worth holding

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Gives you the funds to get a starter in for Rico next Gw as well

  5. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Fourth captain fail in a row. Very disappointing.

    1. andymck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I’m just picking between Salah and Sterling each week and keep choosing the wrong one!

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Same.

      2. Peter Ouch
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Me too, wtf is going on.

        If Salah or Mane overscore city this week...I give up!

        I'll be captaining rico

    2. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      It is the same for most of us I guess...

    3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I'm going to start captaining KDB and Son in rotation now...dont trust Sterling with it

  6. fc_skrald
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Who should be Mr X in this team? - Max price of 5.0 million.

    Heaton
    TAA, Digne, Mr X
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, Cantwell
    Wilson, Pukki, Abraham

    4.0, Lundstram, Hayden, Rico

    1. Offs!de
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Aurier

      1. fc_skrald
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks - the name I was looking for.

  7. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    After gw6 chelsea face ,(BHA sot NEW bur wat CPL WHU AVL eve BOU) in 10 of their next 11 fixtures

    Currently got Mount but doubling up with Tammy looks a no brainer given his form and price right?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      See what they line up like in UCL first

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Annoyingly yes

    3. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah I'm on WC and the double up is tasty.

    4. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Probably thats what I'm leaning towards.

    5. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      My thoughts too.

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

      That's the plan

    7. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      yeah agree with this thinking if doing Salah to Mane to allow Barnes to Tammy next week and have the Mount and Tammy double up

  8. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone else bench Pukki? Anyone? No.... okay

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      If they did they deserved what they got

        Yep I deserve it :/ lesson learned lol

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Oh no 🙁 i’m Sorry I didn’t realise you did I would have been more sensitive about it 🙁 it should have gone in your favour really city were just cack

          1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Haha, I figured Pukki's upside was a consolation goal at best, hard to see that result coming, I did play Jota though so that mistake is on me lol 🙂

          2. Ze_Austin
            • 5 Years

  9. The Senate

    1FT 2.3ITB; what we thinking?
    (A) VVD to Otamendi (442)
    (B) Dendoncker to Cantwell (352)
    (C) VVD, Greenwood to Mings, Tammy -4 (343)
    (D) Foster to Pope

    I hope Auba falls before GW6

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      After his brace today that’s unlikely

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Can’t see it.

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        He is on -94.5.

        Hoppeeeeee

        1. Gregor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah, but even if he blanks which is probably not likely then he’s still got Villa at home next and great fixtures after that too.

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

      You need a Pen miss from him

  11. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    A) Laporte > A cheapie like Lewis/Ward
    B) McGinn > Cantwell
    C) Laporte & McGinn > TAA & Cantwell -4

    1. The Sociologist
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      With C), would you be playing Cantwell?

  12. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Any what to do here? Thinking of pressing the WC or perhaps wait after the pool-chelsea game? 1ft and 0.4m

    Pope --- Heaton
    TAA Digne Zincheko -- Vvd Rico
    Sterling Kdb James Cantwell -- Docker
    King Kane Pukki

    A: Save and hope for the best. have Vvd 1st sub
    B: King > Barnes
    C: something else? vvd/james >> xxx/xxx?

  13. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Alisson will be back sooner or later.

    I will keep my double Pool defence.

    I have to make a decision on VVD to Matip in order to bring in Haller. It will have to see me bring in Rico as 3rd sub. Rico is likely to rise in price so if I do not do it, I will be 0.1 short 🙁

    My frontline will be

    Aguero Haller Pukki

    Decisions, decisions...

    1. Party time
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Tammy will be there for me

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Nah, will Tammy keep it going?

          Not sold on Tammy. Haller for me.

      • Klaren
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Other than Southampton, Liverpool would be unlikely to keep a CS in the games they conceded in, Adrian had no fault in most of them. Liverpool should start keeping more CS at some point and Alisson is a better keeper of course but they won’t magically start keeping clean sheets as soon as he is back.

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

      Which team do you prefer?

      Pope Button

      Or

      My WC looks so much like the current template, who are the best players to get an edge with: Son, Pepe etc are hard to fit in.... Best to just stick to boring picks?

      Current draft is

      Pope
      Trent Digne Zinchenko
      Sterling Salah KDB Mount Cantwell
      Abraham Pukki

      Woodman*, Tomori, Lundstram, Nketiah*

      0.3ITB to play with

      1. Rhodes your boat
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I personally think son is a great fpl asset so considering him myself, maybe a good time to get a couple differentials

    5. ShaunGoater123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Tomori a trap? Of a low cost bandwagon waiting to happen?

      1. Gregor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Let’s see who he goes with against Liverpool, could be a steal.

      2. fc_skrald
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Would like to know this too 🙂

      3. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Chelsea no clean sheets and leaky defence. Not for me.

        1. Gregor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Not sure how bad this new Rüdiger injury is but if he’s fine and then Kanté comes back then I’d expect that defence to tighten up considerably.

    6. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years

      Almost getting to the point where Pep can't afford to rotate Sterling in league games...captain next week or too risky? Obv see what happens in CL first

        Yeah, hoping he gets a rest midweek then I’ll probably captain him.

        Captain Sterling . Nqat

      4. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Said in previous post, Pep might go 4 or 5 in midfield to protect his back 4. Surely a possibility?

        That will see Sterling in a limbo.

      Stop underestimating the defences that Pukki has faced

      Seriously. If the reason you think a team's defence is bad is based on what happened to them when they faced Pukki, you'll be basing about 10 GWs worth of decisions on one match

      Happened with people chasing Spurs assets because Pukki scored a hat trick against Newcastle. Happening with City now considered a bottom-6 defence after Norwich's suicide-squad-level high forward press forced errors and capitalized on every sniff of the ball. Might happen with Pope owners next GW

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I didnt captain Sterling because of how Pukki performed against Norwich's backline

      3. Ahtikullervo
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        With 3 x Salah, 1 x Vardy and 1 x De Bruyne I have 90 from Captains.
        So changing and just Salah would have made the same…

      Thoughts on Tomori? The goal aside, MOTD showed he defended OK as well as few good forward passages

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Not the worst pick. Maybe my otamendi replacement soon enough

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Rudiger has an issue and he scored and played well so unlikely to be dropped in the near term.

        Especially as Chelsea conceded after Zouma came on for Rudiger.

      3. Gregor

        • 14 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Wait to see who Lampard goes with against Liverpool, if Tomori looks like he’s gonna get a spot next to Rüdiger and then Kanté’s back then we could be in business.

            No TAA or Abraham?

            1. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Not keen on Abraham. Yeah he has finally broken then #9 curse, I also believe he is a great option, but I prefer current front 3 .

              No Taa yeah. Don't see pool keeping lot of cs, Allison is a big miss plus the fixtures aren't great. Also I believe Taa will be rotated against some teams who are stronger at the left . Also brining him means sacrificing one of the striker.

            Good team!

            Downgrade 1 of mings/Lowton and upgrade the other?

            Would Try to fit in one of Son/Abraham in a WC

            1. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              My bad.

              Instead of mane, Its son 😀

              Re mings/Lowton : don't see many options tbh . Any suggestions?

            2. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years

              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Mane is supposed to be Son

                4 years, 6 months ago

                  I might go with him.
                  Let's see how I feel about the team come Thursday

          4. Eleven Hag
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            I wud try to fit aguero over Sterling

            1. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah I can, but I'll then have to select a mid below 9 , I don't see many options there

      2. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Care to share? Think I'll be doing mine next week unless City run wild

        1. The Overthinker
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          See above.

          I do think City will run riot against Watford. Not every team are Norwich. They'll want to bounce back and make a statement in PL.

          1. SADIO SANÉ
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Ta, I really do hope so, not feeling great about my decision making this int.break

            1. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Sh!t happens. We move on and start thinking about our next bad decision 😀

            2. The Overthinker
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Also hold onto your wc team for atleast a week unless you are forced to make some change.

    13. Ginkapo FPL

      How long till Pepe's hattrick later?

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        If that happens I'm chucking the towel in

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          GG

          You had a good run

        2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years

          Why? How would it bother you?

      2. Cok3y5murf
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Gervinho 2.0 has to shoot on target for that

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Would be fair if you call him Gervinho 2.0 after half a season of wayward shots, not 2 games

          1. Cok3y5murf
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Have to make use of the meme while I still can 😉

    14. RamaJama

      Get Abraham for

      A) Pukki
      B) Haller

      (Will wait until Abraham is about to rise again)

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Neither imo (I have both) - deciding last week to go 352 has made things annoyingly complicated - them two and Tammy should be solid for ages

      2. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I would just keep Pukki and Haller.

    15. School of Poch
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Am I silly for considering a WC here? Should I just save FT and look to bring in Abraham with 2FT next GW?

      Ryan
      Robbo/Digne/Zinc
      Salah/Sterling/KDB/Mount/James
      Pukki/Barnes

      Button/Lundstram/Greenwood/Rico

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        No WC

        1. School of Poch
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Why, what are the major issues?

      2. Je suis le chat
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I'd hold, esp as you have Mount.

    16. manu4life99
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Would you WC this?

      Pope Heaton
      TAA VVD Digne Montoya Soyuncu
      Salah Sterling Mount KDB Dendonker
      Pukki Barnes Greenwood

      1. Je suis le chat
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        No, just TAA and Greenwood to Tammy and cheapie. I did similarly for -4.

      2. Muchentuchel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        No but I'd get rid of VVD. Double Liverpool defence is too much. No cleansheets and TAA is enough.

      3. Bobby Reds
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Heaton > Button
        VVD > Robertson
        Montoya > Lundstram
        Dendonker > Cantwell

        Only other player is Abraham, not sure how to get him without downgrading Robertson to someone crap.

        1. manu4life99
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          VVD to Robertson is madness, rather move away from the Lpool def double up given their cleansheet record and upcoming fix

          1. Bobby Reds
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Personally I think Liverpool defence will come good, I’m bringing in Robertson this week to have a back three of Digne Trent Robbo.

            But if you doubt Liverpool then; Robbo > cheapie and Greenwood > Abraham if you can afford it.

    17. Muchentuchel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Pukki, Haller & Barnes in my squad.
      Abraham is a must imo. I feel he's very likely to score against us next weekend. But should I get him for Haller or Barnes?

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Barnes

        1. Party time
            4 years, 6 months ago

            This

        2. Herman Toothrot
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I imagine most will say Haller but I'm unsure.

          I had those 3 last GW and switched Pukki out to Tammy. Only just paid off. If I had the funds it would have been Barnes.

        3. OPTA FPL
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          haller

      2. The Frenchie
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Guys what do you think about my team? Any suggestions?

        Gunn
        Digne - Mina - Zinchenko
        Salah - Sterling - De Bruyne - Mount
        Pukki - Haller- Abraham

        Button - Lundstram - Cantwell - Greenwood

        Total value: 101,8
        Bank: 0,1

        1. Party time
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Beautiful although I think Zinchenko's time is up

            1. The Frenchie
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yes, I was thinking on Matis, Otamendi or Alderweireld
