    Did Tammy walk off himself?

    Guys just saw Tammy giving a statement for Chelsea.

    He says he hope's it's just a bruise and not too serious. He has the scans tomorrow.

    Also said it's much better and he can walk. He was standing and giving a statement without sign of pain .

    There...

        FPL need to review that orange flag after that interview?

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          I agree

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

          Standard manipulation from them.

          1. FPL Daniel
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            Rainer you think they will change it ?

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

              Maybe to 75%.

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

    If Lampard says Abraham is a doubt for West Ham, likely back for Villa.

    Would you keep? Who would your 1st sub be?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      See above

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Sell him depending on your bench

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

      Mousett or Lundy

    3. Fantasy Gold
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’ll buy Citizen Kane and slap the armband on him

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

        Tempting...

    4. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sold him on WC last week to fund Kane.

      Pulisic is all the Chelsea attacking cover you need.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        This might work

        1. Nomar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          I just felt Kane and Spurs were going to be the next big bandwagon.

          I’ve been having a yucky season, so figured I wasn’t really going to get anywhere following the template with Abraham and could steal a march on a few people getting Kane early.

          Calculated risk.

    5. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I don't have him and didn't have him all season long.. I have no idea why

    6. Geordie19
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’d keep unless you can get Kane

    7. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I'll keep if so, Villa his former club, Lund will come in for him.

    8. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      That would be a tough one, I've looked ahead and this is as good a chance as any to bring in Jimenez into my 3-5-2. It would be a -4 though so leaning towards keeping.

      My first sub is Tomori.

    9. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I have hayden

  6. Geordie19
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Which you prefer?
    Option A)
    McNeill and Maupay to Son and Greenwood (play 3-5-2)
    Option B..if Tammy is out)
    Maupay and Otamendi to Ings and Cahill (play 3-4-3)
    Thank you.

  7. It's his Job.

    Hold off Aubameyang>Kane this GW? doing this next GW definately.

    1. Geordie19
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Bournemouth at home is a good game for Kane

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Why own Auba?

      1. It's his Job.
        • 10 Years

        Had him since the start but too frustrating as I keep thinking he will haul.

  8. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Best captain pick for the weekend:

    1. Mane (BHA)
    2. Vardy (EVE)
    3. Sterling (new)

    Thanks

    1. Geordie19
      • 7 Years

      Either 1 or 2, flip a coin. Not 3

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      1 or 3

    3. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I am torn between Mane and Vardy

    4. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Kane or Salah

    5. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Salah

  9. 1912 F.A Cup Winners

    Jimenez and Lord Lundstram owners...... what’s your plans???
    A- Play Jimenez bench Lundstram
    B- Play Lundstram bench Jimenez
    C- Play Both

    1. FPL Daniel

      C

    2. El Presidente

    Very possible that Tomori has lost his starting spot for the time being.

    Rudiger is back in full training. Christensen starting alongside Zouma tonight.

    Just a warning!

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Nah. Tomori is the only elite defender we have. All other 3 are for a replacement asa the transfer window open.

      Azpi has 1 more good year and Kepa probably stays. Others are gone

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

        Yeah, Lampard just felt like resting his best defender in their most important game of the season today.

      2. soup natsi
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Elite defenders tend to have played more than 11 first division games

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

      Christy looked looked lost at times tonight.

      Hopefully Tomori can keep the spot over him, Rudiger a whole different issue.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Agree with Rainer. Was never impressed by Christensen

    3. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Yep

    4. Reacher
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Nah, I think he’s back for the weekend over Chris

  11. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What are the chances that Mount is benched again at the weekend?

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

      50/50

    2. Now I'm Panicking

      1. FPL Daniel

    Thoughts on this WC squad please? Thanks.

    Henderson / McCarthy
    TAA / Aurier / Soyuncu / Lundstram / B.Williams
    Salah / Mane / Son / Pulisic / Dendoncker

  13. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Best combo for next few fixtures

    A: Robbo + Mount + Ings (-4)
    B: Tomori + Pulisic + Jimenez (-4)
    C: Tomori + Mount + Rashford
    D: Tomori + Son + Ings (-4)

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Awful

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

      Rusty but against a great low-block. Won’t play a defence that good in England all season.

      Minutes are a help.

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

      Not at his best

  15. Niho992

    Would you rather have Salah or Vardy for next GW?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Vardy

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

      Vardy

    3. soup natsi
      • 9 Years

      Salah

  16. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Pulisic could be the new Lampard.

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

      Can't he just be Pulisic?

      1. The Overthinker

      2. Nomar

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

    Aurier or Tomori?

    1. Tombory
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Aurier, more attacking

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

        That's what I thought, thanks.

  18. Mr. Mystic
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Who to bring in...
    Salah or Robertson?
    (Already have Mane & TAA)

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

      Why would anyone want Salah? You already have enough Liv coverage.

        You usually bench 2 midfielders with 4-3-3

  20. Bennerman

    4 years, 4 months ago

    Abraham could easily miss three games, and really good ones too.

    Chelsea play two juicy home games within the next week, West Ham (h) on Saturday and then Villa (h) on Wednesday.

    He'll be having a scan tomorrow and thus not training. That leaves one training day on Friday, that's assuming he can even train, before Saturday's game. Can't see that being enough to get a start with two fit strikers waiting for their chance.

    If he does have any kind of knock that keeps him off the training field for a few days, is he likely to be fit to start on Wednesday night? Even if he is in contention, what if his replacement scored a hatty in the meantime and keeps his place?

    The third game then comes at the earliest possible opportunity, Saturday 12.30pm. Will he be fit, obviously we don't know. Maybe he isn't. But say, even, he misses West Ham but makes Villa, is he likely to play again on two days' rest on the Saturday? I'd think not.

    All this leads me to reason that he may well play only one, or potentially none, of the next three matches.

    Which for me, with the fixtures and striking options as they are, means selling Abraham now.

    He could of course wake up tomorrow and it's all fine.

    But on balance, and with prices moving quickly, I'm moving Abraham on.

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

      Good luck. The rest of us are waiting for Friday press conference news.

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Each unto their own.

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

          Why would you take the risk though... why not just wait, it’s two days.

      2. Reacher
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        This

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

      The thing Chelsea have that say Leics or Spurs dont have is decent lone striker cover. They are better placed to deal with it.

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Agree, and Lampard has said specifically the Batman is knocking on the door. Hence part of my thinking.

    3. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Going nowhere .5 loss, all the panic sellers are possibly the ones still umming & arring about getting on to the party too late.

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I wouldn't lose .5 either. But I'm not in that position. Will lose a couple but think he'll come down at least .1 anyway (unless he's fine after all).

    4. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Eh. Just wait for Friday. We'll find out more soon enough.

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I've laid out my rationale pretty clearly, no?

        Plus there are price changes I am collecting and adapting too. My target rices tonight, most likely, so is coming in for Abraham.

    Lads, this is my team with 0.6 in the bank. Does having Mount and Tammy require a WC or I am ok by taking a hit? (Already made my ft)

        What's wrong?

          Teams fine, step away from the keyboard.

      WCing that would be crazy - nice team.

        Appreciate it, mate! Tammy and Mount a concern for me, but will see how it goes. Cheers!

    Time to do this?

    KDB 》 Son ?

    If I ship Tammy for a hit....who's the best option. I have 9.2

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

      Depends on the rest of your forwards.

    2. FISSH

      Jiminez or ings

      1. Lebowski85
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        That's my thought

    Well Abraham throws a spanner in the works.

    Makes it now a choice between Son & Kane. Can't afford both with Mane, TAA and KDB in the team too.

    Might just do Dunk > Aurier and see after next match whether Kane or Son is looking like the best option.

  25. Niho992

    Who will rest vs Brighton? Mane, Salah or Firmino? Origi will start i suppose especially they have to play with strongest XI vs Salzburg

    1. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      All 3 start imo.

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

      Alisson
      Trent Lovren VVD Milner
      Hendo Lallana Wij
      Salah Firmino Mane

      Hopefully Ox but looks like he picked a knock up at the end.

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Origi instead Mane or Firmino i think

    Gotta stay ahead of the curve. I sold Tammy for Kane last week.

      But not visionary enough to link your team properly

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

        Why were you even checking my team?

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

          Because I don’t like you

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

            Infatuation is the best way of showing that

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

              I dont forget unwarranted abuse

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

                Then you must have ammesia

    Any information available on Janmaat's injury?

    I think I could need him...

  28. FISSH

    Seems to me tammy will be OK. If he's not only one week missed.

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1 week could mean 3 gwks

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      One week is three GW's though.

  29. Niho992

    Kdb to Salah or
    Abraham to Vardy for a hit ?

    I dont have Mane.

    For the first time in a while it feels like FPL is moving away from the template. KDB, Sterling, Abraham etc becoming less popular.
