    A) TAA + Robbo (bench Soy)
    B) TAA/Robbo + Soy (bench Robbo/TAA)

    i.e. better to hedge with Leicester coverage or double up on pool?

      Bench soy

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee

      B Liverpool don’t do CS

      1. zotter
        • 14 Years

        But they do assists and goals !

        1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          TAA has 6 blanks in his last 10

    3. Coys96

      Bench soy

    4. HD7
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Exactly why I didnt go with Soy or Chilwell on WC. TAA Robbo and Lund play mostly. Didnt stop Willems to smile with points from the bench last GW though 😀

      Thanks, think I’ll regret more in hindsight if one of Robbo/TAA hauls...

  2. KUNingas
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Best def under 4.5? Already have Rico

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly for short term

      1. KUNingas
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks

    2. KUNingas
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Thinking Kelly to free up cash, Ward out for couple of weeks

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly

      1. KUNingas
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks. Leaning to him

    4. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I got Kelly in but now i want Guaita over Pope, not sure on the double up but could work out nicely.

    5. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Long term possibly Targett. Their fixtures turn for the good in a few weeks

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

    Bench which 2?

    Zaha (BOU)
    Mount (AVL)
    Rashford (TOT)
    Aurier (mun)

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mount. Aurier

      1. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks!

      2. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Sounds like a nice place in France

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mount aurier

  4. Mikey44
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Ryan
    Robertson TAA Lundstram
    Mane KDB Alli Pulisic Mount
    Vardy Abraham

    Subs: Rico Connolly Janmaat

    1 FT, 0 itb. Any suggestions please? Is Rico away to cpl a good enough fixture to save a FT if Tammy misses out completely?

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      It is I think

    2. KUNingas
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Easy save

  5. Coys96
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Would really appreciate a reply on this. In the long term:

    1. Zaha & Abraham/Jimenez
    2. Pulisic & Ings/other strikers under 6.8

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      1

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Toughie

      Maybe 2

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

      2 / Id look at Mousse too

  6. Long ago I drew a walrus
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Let's play some devil's advocate. 3 weeks ago nobody would have remotely considered Alli as an FPL option, and even Son was a bad choice after his red card. A new manager that knows the league can do wonders for an underperforming team. So, with that in mind, how are United assets' prospects if Ole gets sacked before/after the derby, and Poch comes in? EVE, wat, NEW between GW17-19, potentially keep an eye on Rashford, Martial, even Maguire/Wan-Bissaka in defence?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Keep an eye in general, a Watford asset might even pop up in the next few weeks...

      Can’t see the brilliant board at Man United sacking a club legend though.

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        As much as the culture of hounding out a manager is toxic, I do feel Ole is a bit out of his depth and it's getting demoralising. We're so far behind the top 4, in points and performances. A month ago we had Spurs and Arsenal for company but both of them have now sacked their managers.

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Owned alli for 2 gws, and doubled up with son laat gw

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        so 25 from 2? Kudos dude, that's impressive.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Poch almost certainly won’t come in mid season as it would cost him €12.5m in golden handcuff payments

      https://www.football365.com/news/spurs-clause-could-deal-man-utd-arsenal-blow-in-poch-pursuit

      Stuck with Ole

      1. The_Fish
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Woodward will pay offer him £15m up front to cover it.

        1. Pacer.
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          This. United just spent 80 million on Leicester's third best center back. Doubt they'd blink at spunking an extra 12m on poch

          1. Rainer
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            You actually think Maguire is better than Wes Morgan?

            1. Pacer.
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Haha.

              I'd love to say no, but Morgan is so OLD now

        2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          True dat

          But then again that would be Woodward making a good decision, which surely is stretching things waaaaaaay too far

          1. Pacer.
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            United are a train wreck on every level. Poch isn't the key to fixing that, just like Moyes, lvg, Mourinho and Solskjaer

            1. Long ago I drew a walrus
              • 13 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Whilst that is absolutely true the new manager bounce is good enough for a period of FPL gold. Confidence was sky high when Ole took the wheel. Went to sh*t once he signed the permanent contract.

            2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Utd are a circus. A farce. A modern day faulty towers of a club. But switching from Solkjaer to Poch is like switching from a Unicycle to a Ferrari... and would be such a good decision that it would be out of character for Woodward

              I’d see him more as spending 50 grand a month on fish tanks for the boardroom, or appointing Phil Jones head of marketing

      2. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Didn't know this... :/

    4. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lots of ifs and buts

    5. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Acc I brought in Son straight after his RC so clearly it wasn't nobody 😉

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah but surely that was after his RC was rescinded 😉

  7. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Play martial (TOT) or ayew (BOU)?

    1. KUNingas
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Martial, I expect goals in that game

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        You think he'll score more than puli this week?

    2. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Martial

    3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ayew

      Utd are crap

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        and so are Spurs defence

        1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          The stats say they have actually improved a lot, look at their big chances conceded.....

      2. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Indeed

        1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I sold martial for zaha this week.

          I’d definitely start Ayew. Palace have form and they have the fixture.
          Martial has no form and he doesn’t have the fixture.

          Good luck either way.

    4. Django Unchained
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Martial , there is gonna be goals

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Rationale thinking but he's been dire

    5. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ayew. Sell Martial

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Puli or zaha? I'm so torn atm

  8. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    What to do here folks? 1ft .2 itb

    Pope
    Saiss, Soyuncu, Lundstram
    Salah, Manè, Maddison, Mount
    Jesus, Rashford, Vardy

    Button, Cantwell, Aurier, Rico

    Not sure I want to use my ft on Pope. Mount to Zaha/Trossard? Or save which is what I’m edging toward.

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I would do mount to zaha

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mount to Zaha

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Throw caution to the wind:

      Pope, Mount, Jesus > Guaita, Alli, Mousset (-8)

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        😆 no thank you.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Throw in Saiss > TAA with the change 🙂

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

        Haha

        I was just looking at a minus 8 to get those 3.

    4. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Interesting. I was thinking of saving. Zaha really doesn’t fill me with confidence...

  9. darkieseer
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Who should I bench?

    Ryan Pope
    Soy Tomori Robbo TAA Lundy
    Mount KDB Mane Tiele McGinn
    Vardy Lys Rashford

    Currently at 848 points, 10 points ahead in my private league

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Pope. Tomori. McGinn. Lys

      1. zotter
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        You could also bench boost

  10. Ronnies
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Play 1:

    A) Tomori - home to Villa

    B) Kelly - home to Bournemouth

    Thanks guys.

    1. Limbo
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Villa more bite a the mo. Palace strong at home. But still don't think there's much of a chance of a CS for either.

    1 FT, 1.7 ITB

    Gazza*
    TAA Lund Robbo
    Mane KDB Maddy Pulisic
    Ings Jimenez Vardy

    Subs: Button, Willems, Hayden, Rico

    Gazza to:
    A) Hendo (it will be a double with Lund for their nice fix)
    B) Schmeichel (as I havent got a Leicester defender)

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I would save

  12. Django Unchained
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Tammy and wood out
    Jimenez and ings in -4
    Worth a punt ?

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No, Jimmy might get rested for all we know. Wouldn’t take hits right now.

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ings more likely to get rested than Jimmy
      Too risky with short turnaround to be taking hits
      Could easily pay off though if Tammy misses

  13. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    A) Tammy -> Mousset, next week Hayden -> Alli

    B) Save, next week Montoya + Madders -> Kelly + Son

    C) Save, next week Montoya + Madders -> Aurier + Alli

    Pope Button
    TAA Soy Lund Tomori Montoya
    Mané KDB Pulisic Madders Hayden
    Tammy Jimmy Vardy

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Just save, maybe C

      1. Hansel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ta

  14. Limbo
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    So Abe dropping tonight? (-101.7 on fplstats) ... and I've not enough cover on bench (Dendonckey / Rico). Would you take a hit if you had £7.6m selling price? (Could go budget striker alongside Jimi/Vardy and upgrade Mount -4)

    My guess is he'll drop at least .1 or .2 over the next 4-5 nights if he doesn't play midweek.

  15. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Quite late to let us know if we want to join live. Never mind, the in bed playback will do.

  16. iL PiStOlErO

    Gtg? Or should I use ft on Pope to someone?

    Pope
    TAA Lund Soy
    Salah KdB Son Pulisic
    Vardy (C) Rash Mousset

    Button Dendo Rico Guilbert

    0.1 itb, 1ft

    1. NABIL - FPL otai

      Nice first XI

    Hey everyone please play 1 and who is 1st on bench in case Tammy doesn’t play. Thanks

      Yeah easy

  20. woodsy1970
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I reckon mount will be on bench again.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      What about Pulisic?

      1. Tempestic
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeh this is a slight concern for me. Before the WHU game I thought he'd get rested in this one but since they lost i'm not so sure.

  21. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Tempted to cap Lordstram, it seems so many (Vardy, Raz, Kdb, Mo are my big 4) have minutes under question. Do you think any of these are almost sure to play a full game or at least most of it?

    1. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Is Vardy ever rotated?

      1. Pacer.
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Vardy won't get rested yet I reckon. More likely to get reduced minutes or rested when the cup comes round

    2. Lumberjack
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Would be surprised to see Vardy rested. The rest all could be.

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

      Vardy minutes under threat?

    4. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No way vardy rested.

      1. circusmonkey
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ok, that is what I was fishing for. Thing is, if they get ahead, I can see a 55 minute job. He is no youngster.

    5. Eleven Hag

      I do get your concerns over Vardy too with Inacheo’s match winning goal at the weekend but I think he should start & complete 70mins minimum which is plenty of time for that hatrick we all know he can score!

    2FT, 0.4M ITB. Any thoughts?

    A - Pope to Ryan
    B - Sterling/Mount to Alli/Son
    C - Tomori to Soy
    D - Saka to Fleck
    E - something else??

    Team now is:

    Pope/Button
    TAA/Lundstram/Rico/Tomori/Kelly
    Mane/KDB/Sterling/mount/Saka
    Vardy/Jimenez/Connolly

    Thanks!!

    start Tomori or Lundstram?

    1. Tempestic
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lund 1000%

      1. Tempestic
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I mean now I've said it it will backfire massively most likely but all logical reasoning points to Lundstram

    2. upforgrabs
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lundstram

    3. zotter
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lund

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lund easy

    5. Lumberjack
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lund

    Palace missing most of their backline.. same fixture ended 5-3 last season. I'm still uncertain if I should play Aurier or Kelly. Help!

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly

  25. Tempestic

    What to do here?
    0.3ITB 1FT
    Pope* (button)
    TAA Soy Lund (Tomori Rico)
    Mane KDB Son Martial* Pulisic
    Vardy(c) Jimenez (Greenwood)

    I think now is probably a good time to make a goalkeeper switch, was looking at Guaita but 0.1 off. Tempted to maybe downgrade Martial to Zaha.
    Thoughts?

      Martial to Zaha worth it regardless of goalie.

      Pure BS that Virgil didn’t win. After the season he had what does it take for a defender to win it?!?!?!?
