Rashford plays down injury worries after latest FPL double-digit haul

We continue our round-up of the Gameweek 22 matches with a look at what happened from a Fantasy perspective at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United 4-0 Norwich City

  • Goals: Marcus Rashford (£9.2m) x2, Anthony Martial (£7.9m), Mason Greenwood (£4.3m)
  • Assists: Juan Mata (£6.2m) x2, Brandon Williams (£4.0m)
  • Bonus: Rashford x3 Mata x2 Williams x1

Marcus Rashford (£9.2m) marked his 200th game for Manchester United with a fourth double-digit haul of the season as Norwich City were swept away at Old Trafford.

The striker scored a goal in each half as his 30.2% Fantasy Premier League (FPL) ownership continued to reap the benefits of his fine form – he’s now scored four times in as many Gameweeks.

Rashford opened the scoring when he converted a Juan Mata (£6.2m) cross before he doubled United’s advantage from the penalty spot after Brandon Williams (£4.0m) was brought down by Canaries keeper Tim Krul (£4.5m).

The only potential downside to his day came when he was substituted after 58 minutes, with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying that “he is struggling a little bit so we took him off”.

But the player himself later confirmed on social media that the move was more about staying fit for his side’s FA Cup replay with Wolves in midweek, saying:

Just a precaution and looking forward to getting back at it Wednesday.

Mata earned his second assist when Anthony Martial (£7.9m) headed home his cross, a finish that meant the France international matched Rashford’s fine goalscoring record over the last four league matches.

Substitute Mason Greenwood (£4.3m) then rounded off the rout to make it three goals from the last five games for the young striker, only one of which has involved a place in the starting line-up.

Consistency remains an issue for Solskjaer’s side, although they have at least started to see off supposedly lesser teams in recent weeks, but Norwich’s notoriously leaky defence is not the benchmark required to judge the overall improvement of this young United outfit.

Next week’s trip to Liverpool certainly is, and it’s a fixture that ushers in a tough run involving away matches at Chelsea, Everton and Spurs and visits from Manchester City, Sheffield United and Watford.

All of that has not dissuaded Fantasy managers from buying into Rashford, who is in the top three for transfers-in ahead of that Anfield clash.

Investing in a defence with two clean sheets from the last three Gameweeks is proving less tempting, but the rise of youngster Williams offers a cut-price way into that backline, with the added bonus of potential attacking returns as well – only Martial and Rashford had more attempts than the left-back on Saturday.

The key question is whether Williams can now hold down a regular starting spot. Solskjaer was certainly not ruling out that possibility in his post-match praise for the 19-year-old:

We want to get to a place where players understand that, if I play well, I’ll keep my place. If I don’t, there’s competition behind us. There’s good competition there now (at left-back) and Brandon has never let us down. Another excellent performance by him.

If United’s final position in the league is still unclear at present, Norwich are now looking nailed-on to finish bottom.

With Teemu Pukki (£6.5m) out of form and injured (although expected to be back in Gameweek 23), their one Fantasy asset worth considering remains Todd Cantwell (£4.9m), who came closest to scoring for the visitors when his fine shot was expertly saved by David de Gea (£5.4m).

The fact that the United keeper ended up producing more stops than his Norwich counterpart said it all – the home side were ruthless, the visitors wasteful.

Either way, there’s little to tempt managers into buying Canaries assets, especially with Liverpool, Leicester and Spurs to come over the next six Gameweeks.

Manchester United XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Williams; Fred, Matic; Mata, Pereira (Greenwood 71′), Rashford (James 59′); Martial (Gomes 80′).

Norwich City XI (4-2-3-1): Krul; Aarons, Hanley (Lewis 81′), Zimmerman, Byram; Tettey, Vrancic (Amadou 65′); Cantwell, McLean, Buendia; Idah (Hernandez 65′).

Chelsea 3-0 Burnley

  • Goals: Jorginho (£4.9m), Tammy Abraham (£7.8m), Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m)
  • Assists: Reece James (5.0m), Willian (£7.2m), Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m)
  • Bonus:  Azpilicueta x3, James x2, Jorginho x1

Chelsea bounced back from a three-match winless run with a regulation victory over struggling Burnley.

Goals from Jorginho (£4.9m), Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) and Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m) didn’t flatter the Blues, who had eight shots on target to the visitors’ one.

Hudson-Odoi’s strike, from a Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m) assist, was his first Premier League goal for Chelsea and with just 0.5% FPL ownership, the young winger could be a major differential candidate if he can build on that landmark.

His manager, Frank Lampard, was certainly happy to praise him post-match:

For Callum to score in the six-yard box is more exciting than him scoring from 30 yards. It means he is willing to get in there. It wasn’t the only time he did that. His overall performance was a statement of what he has to do. That was the real Callum. If he carries on like that we will have a real player.

The one rider when it comes to investment in any of Chelsea’s players involves their immediate schedule, however.

Lampard’s side travel to Newcastle next before embarking on a brutal four-Gameweek run involving Arsenal, Leicester, Manchester United and Spurs, although the only away fixture in that quartet will be at the King Power Stadium.

At least Abraham will head into all of that with his return to form gathering pace. He produced an attacking return for the third straight Gameweek – two goals and an assist – when Burnley keeper Nick Pope (£4.6m) failed to deal with his header.

Reece James (£5.0m) set up the goal and he and fellow defender Azpilicueta dominated the bonus point standings as the Blues kept their first clean sheet since Gameweek 18.

A tendon injury ruled out Christian Pulisic (£7.0m). The American has been in the thoughts of many Fantasy managers this season, while his team-mate Willian (£7.2m) has spent much of the campaign under the radar.

The Brazilian was brought down for the penalty kick converted by Jorginho, making it two assists from the last three matches for the winger. He also scored twice to bring in 16-point haul against Spurs in Gameweek 18 and is now seven points clear at the top of the team’s midfield scoring charts in FPL.

That nasty upcoming schedule will persuade only the bravest to tap into Chelsea’s stars, while Burnley’s wretched form means investment in their players would be an act of desperation.

Sean Dyche’s side have now lost four straight matches in the league, scoring just the once along the way, and they’ll be facing Leicester, Manchester United, Arsenal and the in-form Southampton over the next four fixtures.

The manager knows just what is needed to revive their fortunes.

We have to fight for everything. We have always had to do that. The confidence gets sucked out of players if they are not winning. We are trying to revive that.

But until that revival kicks in – if it does at all – their players look off-limits, with even the popular Pope (13.0%) shipping managers in seven of the last eight Gameweeks.

On the injury front, Dyche explained:

Jay Rodriguez is ill. Bardo only trained yesterday morning after four days of illness. Barnesy we will find out more about [this week]. Johann [Berg Gudmundsson] is settling down his hamstring and we are not sure on that one, we will have to wait and see. Robbie [Brady], calf, so he will probably be back on the grass hopefully this week.

N’Golo Kante (£5.0m) missed out for Chelsea, meanwhile, with Lampard saying:

It was something that came up last night. It was more of an awareness in the hamstring as opposed to a moment where he had to pull up. That makes you hope that it’s a small thing but we’ll have to see how it goes.

Chelsea XI (4-2-3-1): Kepa; James, Rudiger, Christensen, Azpilicueta; Barkley, Jorginho; Hudson-Odoi, Mount, Willian; Abraham.

Burnley XI (4-4-1-1): Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Lennon, Westwood, Cork, McNeil; Hendrick (Vydra 73′); Wood.

      Defence needs work and you only have 2 pool....Plan for Robbo in

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Rico to Holgate or try to figure out how to get a third Pool player.

    Henderson
    TAA - Dunk - Soy
    Salah - Mane - KDB - Grealish
    Vardy - Jimenez - Maupay

    (4.0 - Cantwell - Lundy - Rico)
    1 Ft & 0.1m

    Stuck around 900k.
    Any inspirational moves I can make to move up the ranks?

    Currently thinking Jimenez to Ings a boring move.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No real cash to do anything really.

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah a bit stuck with both of them. They really need to deliver those Aguero-esque hauls now.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Wouldn't expect it this week. After the DGW, selling one and getting another Pool defender might work.

          1. Karan14
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Yeah I've looked at that after the DGW.
            Selling KDB to free up funds might be an option also given their slightly tough run of fixtures coming up and if GW28 blank is confirmed.

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Do the Ings move. Double LIV mid restricts options for decent punts

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah mate will get Ings in as any points from him now is red arrows.

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Jimenez to Ings and Maupay to Deeney?

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Over 2 weeks obviously

      2. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes that's what I was thinking.
        Maupay to Deeney/Deulo next week.

        Cheers Holmes!

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

      Look @ Moura
      Something like Jimenez grealish >> Moura Ings maybe nice option. Not sure about hit though

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Jimenez to Ings will free up some funds to play around with Grealish or Maupay next week.

  6. Joggers Nipple
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Last dilemma for GW24 (have been set on A for ages)

    Ryan/ Skelt
    TAA Kelly Lunds ???? ????
    KDB Mane Maddison Grealish ????
    Ings Vardy Rashford

    A. VVD and 4.5 mid (keep Soyuncu)
    B Robertson 4.5mid and Holgate/ WATdef -4
    Holding this week all moves next week

    Thanks for any input.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A, VVD is class

    2. olidooley
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B....Robbo has long term potential after the DGW

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cheers both

  7. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years

    At the stage when only owning TAA in defence, I want Pool to concede but some attacking returns.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I like points, no matter what other peeps got.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        You like your rank going backwards?

    2. olidooley
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Double defence Liverpool teams are sweating over Salah or Mané for the DGW.
      Double attack teams are wondering if the huge outlay in budget will even pay off with Liverpool keeping clean sheets and no hammerings happening

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Feel I got 3 too early now with the results. Pool could easily have conceded in recent games.

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

      DD is bad for nerves tbh
      It's been effective for last 2 GW's for me. Let's see how it goes in GW 24

  8. as33
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Any Kelly replacement for the same price(4.2). Williams not nailed?

    1. farmerfat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Masuaku or Zabaleta, Dont know if you want to dabble in West Ham defence though.

    2. olidooley
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Lascelles!!

  9. farmerfat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Very much considering getting Firmino as my 3rd Pool for the double.
    This would be an easy transfer and not require any hits. Also means I could keep KDB.
    Have Salah and TAA but looking for a differential.
    Sitting just outside top 500k this season.
    Thoughts?

    1. olidooley
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Could work

    2. Free Hat
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Good shout. Only worry he perhaps might be rested one game for origi.

  10. Pranked
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Is it utterly insane to consider triple captaining TAA in 24? 😀

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Worth a try, expect Wolves to score.

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

      Nope

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

      I wouldn’t as you are relying on a lot of luck when it comes to Liverpool keeping a clean sheet. Check the expected goals table.

      Even at the weekend Spurs had a higher expected goals than Liverpool

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

        Yeah
        Spurs missed some glorious chances

        1. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          It’s been the case all season. Liverpool have gained 18 points against the expected goals table

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

            Wow

            1. Syd.
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Very high conversion rate against their oppositions very poor conversion rate.

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

                Lucky or just clinical 😮

          2. Moose™
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Is it wise to DD on Pool def going forward?

            1. Syd.
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              I actually would go with a double up despite the stats

  11. Akshatjazz
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Maddison > moura after this gameweek 23 ??

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Lets see how they perform

      Based on this week, yes

      1. Akshatjazz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Do you think having 2 Brighton player is good due to the fixture ??

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Depends who they are. Not a fan of their defense but attack can do well over next few weeks.

          1. Akshatjazz
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Have Ryan & dunk

          2. Akshatjazz
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            If not dunk then who shld I replace Rico with ??

            1. Holmes
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Cathcart. Egan if possible.

              1. Akshatjazz
                • 4 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Already have double Sheffield United players, do you think having a Watford palyer will be good choice. Frm this gameweek till next few gameweeks he can act as my 3 Def option ??

                1. Holmes
                  • 10 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  From next week, yes.

                  Holgate is also an option if you don't have him

  12. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    What can go wrong with Kevin-Traore to Mahrez-Silva? (Other than both getting benched) 😀

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

      Don't 😀
      Pep is a fraud.

    2. Free Hat
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Are you really shipping kdb?

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Considering but may not happen

    3. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'm tempted to sell KDB after GW23. But it just doesn't sound right.

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Same. Would like to sell him but Vardy and Salah are not performing as expected. They might have to go instead.

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yup Vardy & Salah need to perform over the next 2 gameweeks otherwise even I'll be looking at other alternatives.

          A Spurs mid for KDB is tempting but it didn't go right the last time I made this move a few gameweeks ago.

    4. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      might as well have some fun with it mate)) what we (low rank) players got to lose

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        True 😀

  13. Free Hat
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    With al chips intact.

    Expecting 2 more dgw in the future using BB and Free Hit,
    Dgw 24 seems the best time to use TC chip no?

    Only negative for me is the two away games, but hell, its Livpool.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      2 blank GWs too.

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

        Yes
        We maybe forced to play FH in a BGW this season

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

      Is it ?
      I thought there will be 3 more DGW's.
      😮

      1. Free Hat
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not sure on how many, just stating there will probably be at least 2 more dgw in the future.
        Only not overly confident in TC chip right now. And Salah or Mane is a Sophies choice for cpt.

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years

          Hmm
          I'm going to save TC chip as of now

    3. Akshatjazz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Even I have all the chips intact, thinking to go with the same idea although I think it will be very much one sided and both pool will win easily

    sterling owners - what do you do now?

    1. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Think he should start vs Palace (in place of Jesus)

      1. Lord Flashheart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        probably right...

      2. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Nice captain choice at the weekend. Same again next weekend?

        1. Lateriser 12
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I reckon so.

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

      I have got rid of him as if they persist with this new system which they may do as they won easily I don't see a place for him in the team.

  15. Cojones of Destiny

    time to have some fun)) thoughts?

    Alli+Kelly -> Cantwell + Robbo for free?

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Spurs have a few good fixtures coming up

      1. Moose™
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah. I keep the faith with Alli.

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      was going to do alli to mahrez prev gw but chikened out / no more fear go with ur gut !

    Morningn dzz, Thoughts here with 2FTs and 1.9m itb

    Ryan -- Button
    Taa Aurier Lundy -- Rico Zabaleta
    Martial Kdb Salah Grealish -- Stephens
    Vardy Rash Ings

    A: Aurier + Stephens > Robbo + Hayden
    B: Aurier + Martial >> Robbo + Fanderson
    C: Martial + Rashford >> Mane + DCL
    D: Martial > Mahrez as a 1 gw punt and then do C

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B out of those

    2. Bobby Digital

      A

  17. King Kohli
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Fed up of team looking good on paper but not getting points.
    Think defence is a worry.
    Appreciate suggestions on how to improve this team.

    Guaita Stek
    TAA Soy Lundy Rico Williams
    Mane Salah KDB Maddison Cantwell
    Vardy Ings DCL

    1 Ft 0 itb

    1. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Probably change Soy and Maddo to other? Saw few people stated that they are focusing on cup and predicted to regress..

    2. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Think you can get away with saving this week.

      Rico to Holgate if you can afford it?

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Template defence. would tell and upgrade Rico.
      Which attacker are you benching?

  18. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    My transfer plans have been screwed with that Fabianski injury. Guess it’s my own fault for just having one playing goal keeper

    Time to get McCarthy in

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Isn't it just -4 worse?

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

      McCarthy is a good option.
      Getting him next GW myself

    3. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Make the transfers you were going to. Think of this as a hit-bandage

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I was planning on saving it so I’m holding out hope that fabianski might make a miraculous recovery 😆

        1. Lateriser 12
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          ya i'm waiting too

  19. Zimo
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Play Doucoure over Salah or Mane?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Good luck.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Salah doesn't do well against United tho

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Given the ownership, Mane playing makes sense.

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

      Over Salah

  20. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on this ? Looking for a differential and feel Utd's fixtures are pretty tough.

    Rashford and Martial to Ings and Son?

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Tough? After pool they have BUR,WOL,che,WAT..

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Exactly all tough games for Itd them

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Utd*

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

      Burnley isn't tough but agree with the rest.

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Was going to say maybe not Burnley

    3. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nice moves. As long as you know its a gamble

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah I understand this , but need to make some aggressive moves

  21. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just a word of caution for those transferring in Williams. There is another 4.0 defender called Neko Williams (LIV) who looks somewhat similar.

  22. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I'm set on ditching Mahrez. Lose:

    A) Madison - fixtures turn in a couple of weeks
    B) Martial - up front but hates bonus and it's United

    Have Rashford and Vardy.

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Getting Mahrez*

    2. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I prefer tony to madisson

    3. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B

  23. THEKID_88
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Start Cantwell or Martial

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cantwell

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

      Cantwell

    3. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Ladwell

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

    Play 2 (atleast one def):

    Lundstram(ars)
    Aurier(wat)
    Cantwell(BOU)
    Traore(sou)

    1. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A C

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Aurier Cant

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

      Thanks guys!

  25. Moose™
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Is it wise to sell Ryan and Soy to get McCarthy and Stephens and bank the money? SOU fixtures looking good

    1. gomenor
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Brighton got even better fixtures so would not double up

      1. Moose™
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Swap Soy with Webster? Double up on Brighton def instead. Haha

  26. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Best use of FT:

    1. Greenwood >> DCL
    2. Dendoncker >> Doucoure / Sarr

    Thanks

  27. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Any chance of Cantwell price going up before next deadline?

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I doubt it

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

      Maybe Thursday/Friday

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        You think so?

        43% and fixtures are horrid after the Bournemouth game

    3. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks guys!

    Don't want to make a hit for a replacement...

    1. Syd.

      Minor injury according to Eddie Howe

      1. Bavarian

    Good morning Folks, which option looks better? 2FT 5mil ITB

      Going without vardy is really risky though. And if sterling and bilva joins the squad you could be 2 man down pretty quick.
