Captain Poll

Vote in the Blank Gameweek 28 captain poll

Liverpool options dominate the captain poll once again as Blank Gameweek 28 rolls around.

You can now cast your vote below or on the sidebar of the website.

Fresh from scoring in the 3-2 win over West Ham, Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) has raced into another early lead, already earning the support of 44.6%.

Upcoming opponents Watford have let their guard down a little since the new-manager-bounce of Nigel Pearson wore off.

In their last four matches, the Hornets have conceded at least two goals on three occasions, while Liverpool and Salah are in the scoring mood.

The Egyptian has found the net four times since Gameweek 24, more than any of his colleagues.

However, Sadio Mané (£12.3m), who netted against West Ham and could have scored a double-figure haul were it not for VAR, is also in the armband discussion.

The Senegalese international has more away goals in the league than Salah this season and has registered back-to-back strikes since returning from injury in Gameweek 26.

That has earned Mané 12.1% backing in the captain poll, good enough for third place so far.

However, Jamie Vardy (£9.7m) is the man to take up second place so far, as Leicester prepare to face Norwich.

Admittedly, the centre-forward has now blanked in each of his last five matches, but his backers appear to be encouraged by the prospect of the Canaries’ defence.

Despite some recent improvements Daniel Farke’s men were brushed aside 3-0 by Wolves in Gameweek 27, suggesting they could be just as obliging against Leicester.

Interesting differentials at this point include Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m), who still hasn’t blanked in a league match he started since Gameweek 13, while Harvey Barnes (£6.0m), despite his Gameweek 27 benching, could be the most likely to score for Leicester at Carrow Road.

              Prefer him as an option. 100% nailed and is good in the air. Both are good options I just prefer him

    Grealish and KDB to Barnes and Mane -4?

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

      Yesss

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It's a no from me.

    3. FPL Blow-In

      Has a potential city dgw29 been ruled out?

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not ruled out, but it’s very unlikely I think.

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I thought it was more likely than not?

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Arsenal need to be knocked out of Europe I believe.
            Even then it would be very late notice.

      No

  3. Rolls-Royce
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Lads, Which option would you prefer here?

    A. Doucoure-> Barnes (-4)
    B. Play Doucoure (LIV)

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

      Will Barnes make up for the -4?

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        TM is that you?

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Tough. Doucoure is likely to be 2pts. Would Barnes be a 6-pointer to offset this? Possibly.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Ta.

  4. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years

    Boly or Saiss?

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Both are good. If you need some extra cents to spend elsewhere go for Saiss.

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years

    Chances of C.Taylor rising tonight? He is at 89.3 atm on FPL Statistics

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years

      Not very likely then.

  6. lindeg
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    If you had to choose between these two for the next 4 gameweeks, who would you choose?

    A: Armstrong - whu, NEW, nor, ARS

    B: Saint-Maximin - bur, sou, SHU, AVL

    Cheers!

    1. Earn your Spurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      I went Armstrong, he now has 3 goals in last 5 games, vs 1 assist

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

    Pope
    Taa, Robo, Lund, Lascales, Rico
    Salah, Kdb, Traore, Grealish, Dendoker
    Auba, Vardy, Ings

    2ft 0.1 m itb

    A. Grealish, Lund --- Mount/Barnes, Boly
    B. Grealish, Traore, Lund --- Mount, Barnes, Boly -4

    No value on Grealish got him few weeks ago

    1. rjcv177

      B gives u flex for only a hit 😉

  8. HamezMace

    4 years, 2 months ago

    Afternoon all, how is everyone shaping up for mini blank28?

    I’ve got 11, but one of them is Greenwood.

    Should I do Greenwood to DCL/Pukki.
    Or O’Connell to Boly and start Greenwood but at least have bench cover.

    Full team

    McCarty (whu)
    Trent (wat) Soyuncu (nor) Ogbonna (SOU) Taylor (new)
    Salah and Mane (wat) Zaha (bha)
    Jiminez (tot) Ings (whu) Greenwood (eve)

    Bench/blanks - KDB, O’Connell and Grealish

    1FT 2.7m.

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Stick

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Really? Hold the transfer and hope Greenwood plays, seems risky.

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

      Dropping Grealish can give you Bruno

      From those moves, Greenwood to Dominic makes sense.

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Tempting, hadn’t considered Bruno. But I love super Jack, think him and KdB are season keepers (got them both cheap).

        1. Dr Mulholland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Following Homes' idea, how about Zaha to bruno instead.

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I’m not going to lose someone with a guaranteed fixture this week, especially when Greenwood is my eleventh man, and I’d probably rate his chances of starting less than 50-50.

            I’m also considering 31 fixtures, if Liverpool get knocked out of the FA cup, I’ll go without FH31, and Zaha would also play 31 in this scenario.

    3. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I would do Greenwood to DCL

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks.

        And thanks all.

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

      Also have 11 plus a sub including Greenwood starting and think i'm happy to roll with that and save my FT to give me more flexibility once GW31 blanks are known next gameweek - i figure the amount of ppl taking a hit for 28 should roughly even out any points loss if greenwood and another doesn't appear and the other 10 are relatively safe starters.

      1. ritzyd
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        So in summary i think you should save the FT instead

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Thanks for the reply.

      2. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I’m not expecting a great week to be honest, on paper it looks a weak team.
        And I agree not much chance of a big points swing.

        I just don’t like fielding less than 11 psychologically.

  9. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Chances of starting for

    a) Rico
    b) Sidibe

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Actually chances of starting of

      a) Rico
      b) Sidibe
      c) Dendo

  10. The King
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Is Saka a good option after this gameweek? Could really help with getting Auba

    Thinking potentially Grealish -> Saka

    What do you think?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Grealish a season keeper for me.
      Saka seems a good option though as a 5th mid.

  11. rjcv177
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Simple as this.

    A) aguero to vardy (keep double pool def)
    B) earthquake -8 (robbo, kdb, aguero to DOHERTY, MANE, VARDY)

    No idea if FH31 or not

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

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

      A

    3. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mate... just do A

    4. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A and chill

    5. ritzyd
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Oddly i actually rather like B there - bit Maverick but could see you repaying the -8

  12. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    What are people doing with Dean Henderson? I've had from the start so can sell for 4.8m. Like his next 2 fixtures but blank this gw and obvs can't play in 31. So may be sensible to move on?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      31 probably won’t happen anyway.

      Can you upgrade your sub keeper?

    2. Rolls-Royce
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping. Upgraded my other keeper to Pope.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Likely doing this also.

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Rotates well and in place for bench boost.

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yup. Have 0.9m itb with Martin as 2nd GK. Have looked at Mccarthy. But tempted to move to a GK with good fixtures until 32 when I wc

    4. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping. Have Pope as my backup.

  13. Rolls-Royce
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Seems like many are not getting in Mane in here. Are most of you set on 3 pool already?

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Brought in Robbo last GW as my 3rd Pool. Weighed up having double defence v Salah/Mane. Double defence came on top and is cheaper so opted for that instead. It was a dilemma though

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

      im getting him in for mahrez

    3. Greek Freak
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Don't see how. I only have two 10m+ players in my team (KDB and Salah) and they're not going anywhere. Also already three Liverpool.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I'd argue Mane outscores KdB in the next four. Moreover a differential captain option right now.

        1. Greek Freak
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Probably, given the blanks, but I want KDB in my team and it would cost too much to sell and buy back.

    4. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Kept him.
      Have Salah, Mane and Trent.
      Wouldn’t want any other combination.

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I’ve held him since the dgw TC fail. He has some making up to do!

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

      Just can't upgrade Kevin to him without getting rid of Aubameyang, so no choice but to avoid him

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        What's your team

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

          Ryan, McGovern
          Robertson, Pereira, Stevens, Fernandez, Reid
          Salah, Kevin, Pepe, Doucoure, Traore
          Aubameyang, Ings, Connolly

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I'd be tempted with, Pepe + Kevin -> Mane + Barnes

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

          Poor TV you can say

    7. CRO KLOPP
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I have Robbo as a 3.pool player ,25-30 less points for 5 mil less, don't have a problem who to captain. So many things to do,not worth 2 FT to shift in order to get Sadio
      He is a great option btw

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, I think he is a great differential captain atm, if you have to do some climbing up the ranks with many onto Salah.

        1. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          You could also go down in rankings
          In my case I just don't have the luxury to get him
          Satisfied so far with 2 fullbacks

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Mane has looked electric since he came back and seems to perform better in the second half of the season. Worth the risk, imo.

            1. CRO KLOPP
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Yes,he looks hungry,I use my transfers to buy gmwk 31 players so Salah, TAA, Robbo for me
              GL

      2. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Bit miss leading that. Robertson has played every game for around 450+ minutes more. As you said they are both very good options though.

        1. CRO KLOPP
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          On the other hand Robbo plays better with Sadio around

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

      Mane taa Joe. Open to swapping Gomez out on wildcard. Salahless season though

    9. Marty McFly
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I’m on a TAA, Salah, Mane triple up and it’s probably I’ve felt comfortable all season. It’s oddly comforting to own all three for the first time.

      1. Marty McFly
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        The most*

  14. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Will WC around 32-33

    A) Henderson to Patricio
    B) Mccarthy to Pope

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Patricio edges that for me due to fixtures. Both in good form currently.

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B. Hendo & Pope are the best possible GK combo!

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Meant Martin to Pope. So a rotation with Hendo and Pope. Obvs more expensive but I agree with Patricio I think. Fixture wise etc

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I’m doing the Hendo and Pope rotation myself. I thought you had to sell Henderson sorry.

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          My bad. Worded it wrong, I can see the appeal tbf :/. Still not sold on Burnley though, awful fixtures next 2 and fancy Watford and Palace to score

  15. lekalatch
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    WC for GW29. In need of differentials so have that in mind. Thanks!

    McCarthy Reina
    TAA Gomez Doherty Pereira Stephens
    Mane Pepe Barnes Traore DouglasLuiz
    Aguero Vardy Jota

    Will be playing mainly 433 with this. 442/5-back line works as well.

      It is a bit out there... I may even actually like it. Not a fan of those 2 goalkeepers though.

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

        McCarthy with good fixtures + Reina for the potential DGW. Don't want to spend too much cash on the GKs

  16. Peteski29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Currently have no playing GK for the blank. 1ft and 5.8mil itb.

    Henderson* McGoveren*
    TAA Robertson Stephens Soyuncu
    Salah(C) Barnes Traore
    Vardy DCL Ings

    Dendonker KDB* Lundstrum*

    Any help appreciated

    A) Bring in a playing GK for McGoveren- potentially Pope
    B) Dendonker to Bruno Fernandes (go with no GK)
    C) Both for a hit

    1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 8 Years

      I'd do both for a hit

      Do you want 11 players this gw or are you fine with 10? I think an auba to Vardy hokey cokey makes sense if you're fine with 10.

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

        Just seen a possible move:
        Auba+Grealish+Traore to Vardy+Bruno+Snodgrass
        For -4

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I like that

      2. We Will Klopp you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        If 11, you can do Grealish to Barnes as well but that depends on whether you want to keep Grealish or are fine with getting rid

  18. We Will Klopp you

    4 years, 2 months ago

    2 frees

    Henderson (McCarthy)
    Trent Robbo Stevens (Taylor Lascelles)
    Salah KDB Traore Barnes (Grealish)
    Aguero Jimi Ings

    A) Aguero and Stevens to Vardy and Doherty, in view to do doing Vardy to Auba with the mitb next gw

    B) Just Aguero to Vardy, get aguero back the following gw

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

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

      Aguero to Vardy, don't get Kun back tho

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

        actually do A 100%

          Cheers guys

  19. I Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    A) Barnes (nor, AVL, wat)
    B) Mount (bou, EVE, avl)

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Barnes the more exciting option but Mount more nailed

    3. Peteski29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

    Draft league
    Drop Deeney for Jota?
    Y/N

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      yes

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Can you wait a gw? Jota has been wildly inconsistent this season. Seems to do better in the 352, in your shoes I'd want to see how he does v Spurs first. If you can't then go for it, I see jota as having more upside than Deeney.

  21. Marty McFly
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Grealish to...

    A) Barnes
    B) Maddison
    C) Traore
    D) Saint-Maxim
    E) Armstrong
    F) Someone else

    1. Dr Mulholland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A or B are the only ones that I would consider.

  22. hugothedog
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Who should I buy as my second keeper, budget 5,5? Keeping Hendo for now:
    A) Ryan
    B) Schmeichel
    C) Guaita
    D) Pope
    E) Dubravka

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

      I like E but Pope will probably give you more points

    2. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      D

    3. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Pope

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

    Mount or Barnes??

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      See above

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Trying to decide between those two as well. Think I'll go Mount if Chelsea have DGW29. If they don't I'm leaning towards Barnes.

    3. Lignja
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cant decide so will sell both Grealish(no value on him) and Traore to get Mount and Barnes

  24. DÏLKS
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just wondering what the general consensus is for everybody with all their chips left?

    Obviously got the GW31 blank for majority of the big teams, which then is leading into a DGW34?

    Are people using their FH for GW31, WC GW33, BB GW34 & TC GW37?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      FH31 only if Liverpool blank.

      Otherwise FH first DGW (34)
      WC the following week
      BB in the next DGW (37)

      TC already used.

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

      We don't have enough actionable info atm imho. GL.

    3. ritzyd
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      At moment i'm on FH 31, WC into 33, BB 37 (already used TC)

      This may change to WC into 32, FH 34, BB 37 depending on 5th round results

    4. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      With tc already used i'm looking at FH34

    5. DÏLKS
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Quite interesting this year - usually there seems to be a set in stone plan by this point in the season.

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

    Just a quick one, regarding the use of WC.

    Many say they plan to use their WC by 'this' or around 'that' GW.

    Just wondering, what is that planning based on?

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      DGW + BB combo I believe

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yep

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

        Just wondering as I have seen some say they will be using their WC by GW XX which ain't a DGW.

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          You need to do it the GW before the DGW so you can hit the BB button on the actual GW. Maybe that's why?

          1. Stormbringer22
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Not sure which gameweeks you have seen suggested though so the above is just a guess

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

          Plus those who still have WC, FH and BB, there may only be 2 DGW's.

          1. Stormbringer22
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I would probably use my FH for the (smaller) DGW 34, use the WC for GW36 and use the BB for the (bigger) DGW37

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

              Have you planned to use your WC for GW36?

              1. Stormbringer22
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 4 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Unless something majorly wrong happens, then yeah - will WC for GW36. I am quite happy with my team at the moment so not much to wildcard to anyway.

        3. ritzyd
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          For me going into GW 33 looks prime time - will know 34 blanks and who has doubles (even if date not known) by that point and there are a lot of fixture swings too i want to take advantage of.

      3. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Can be sorted with FT’s

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          ^ This is also true

        2. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          No chance can you get a team of 15 DGW players for 34/37 just with FTs.

          1. DAZZ
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Wont necessarily want 15DGW players.

            1. HamezMace
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Well that’s the idea behind WC the week before a big DGW, getting 15 DGWers for BB.

              1. DAZZ
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                I know im just saying i can comfortably field a solid BB GW34 team without a WC. I dont think i’ve ever gone in a GW with 15 full players with 2 games.

                1. ritzyd
                  • 6 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  How can you say that without knowing the GW34 fixtures?

                2. HamezMace
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  Last season I had 14, and someone playing home to Cardiff for my BB.
                  Was a good week.

  26. FirMinaMiMo
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Will Bailly start vs everton??

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

      If its a 5 yes but my question is: is he still not better than Lindelof even in a 4? Surprised that he didnt get the nod against Watford after his previous 5 star display...

  27. The Man Pastore
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    No playing keeper for this week... Should I do Henderson to Schmeichel for -4pts?

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

      In the same boat and considering the same move...

    2. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      -4 for a keeper is unlikely to pay off.
      You need a clean sheet for a 2pt net gain.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        It is effectively -2 if no playing keeper.

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yes, so -2 is a realistic outcome. Maybe just -1 if you get some save points.

          +2pts is the best case scenario.

          Not worth the risk in my opinion.

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            We definitely have a different "risk" calculation.

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

      Got a funny feeling Norwich will score though, and also trying to work out whether to WC in GW29, or whether to carry over this week for 2 FTs...

  28. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    No wc. Currently on Cantwell, Jimenez and DCL who plays gw31, plus 3 Liverpool players.

    FH31 looks like reasonable but WOL/EVE(a.k.a. Rich and DCL)/BUR all have a good run until the end of season.

    Maybe I should navigate GW31 with 8-9 players and save the FH for dgw?

    Possible gw31 lineup:
    -
    TAA Robbo Boly Taylor
    Salah Cantwell Rich
    Jimenez DCL

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      8-9 is enough but you need Pool and Norwich to lose for that to happen.

  29. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    2FT 0.1ITB 10 players for 28.

    Mccarthy
    Bertrand VVD TAA Lascelles
    Salah Traore Cantwell
    Ings Jiminez

    (Henderson, E.Stevens, KDB, Grealish, Auba)

    Any ideas?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Auba to Vardy is popular.

  30. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    My rival did Salah >> Mané this week.

    Madness? Genius?

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Sideways

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        What if it is to Captain every week? Which he will. Might be very smart

    2. Maddi Son
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I think either have both, or hold onto the one you've got. Unless he's planning to captain Mane every week over the next few as a somewhat differential.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        He will be yes

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Somebody with very few problems I'll say that. Let's be honest, if we could have an extra pool spot, this game would be very straightforward.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, he’s not rocking the Lunds, Rico, Aurier, Soyuncu backline like me though 😆
