Recapping the best Norwich players ahead of FPL restart

The Fantasy Premier League assets at Norwich are likely to be few and far between for the remainder of 2019/20 – but there is still plenty about their squad that FPL managers should be aware of.

We are currently recapping which players went into the coronavirus (COVID-19) suspension in the best form, using each club’s last six matches for the analysis.

We have also been assessing the impact of recently appointed new managers in the Premier League, so this series covers the other 15 sides, continuing with Norwich.

As we are sure you understand, a lot has changed since the climax of Gameweek 29, with Premier League players unable to fully train with their team-mates for nearly three months. 

However, it should still serve to know who was performing best before the break.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those signed up to a valid package can access it in full.

    FH, who scores more?

    A) Pepe + Samatta
    B) Lacazette + McGinn
    C) Ozil + Abraham

    1. Mainecooners
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’d go B I think it has the higher point ceiling. A is obviously a bit safer for minutes but I think you may as well be brave in the last DGW and go for the points.

    3. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B

  2. Jambot

    Any help? I’ve got 15.4m for these three slots. On BB Wildcarding next week

    Leno XXX
    Baldock Lund Targett Doherty Boly
    Sterling KDB Grealish Fleck XX
    Aguero Auba XXX

    A) Patricio, McGinn, Nketiah
    B) McCarthy, Saka, Samatta
    C) something else

    Appreciate any help! Struggling to finish the puzzle

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years

      A

      1. Jambot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah I think I agree, thanks

    2. Patron
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      hm I'd say A too.

      btw I like you have Lund, do you think he might get both games? I mean he will be involved for sure since we'll have 5 subs, but will he start both games?
      I have him too and so much value tied up in him, so im really considering keeping him.

      GL

      1. Jambot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks for the feedback sounds like A then!

        I’m think Lund will have his minutes managed but think he will play a part in both games and 60 at least once. I’m happy to take the risk for a defender that most are avoiding who plays in an attacking midfield role. One goal and we are laughing! If it doesn’t work out it’s not the end of the world. I say keep him.

    3. Salah_Fingers
      • 9 Years

      Nice team, leaves me with £2.4m with option A, have you spent exact funds or do you have similar in the bank after?

      1. Jambot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks.

        I think A leave me with 0.3 (0.4 if I do Boly>Saiss) my TV is lower than most unfortunately. I’d love that extra 2.4m and would probably use it upgrading Nketiah

  3. darkmatt3r
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone concerning going the rest of the season without Trent?
    Currently have Walker and no other pool or city defence

    TAA Waker/Mendi Saka
    To
    Laporte Stevens Barns

    1. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Considering but I’ll probably end up with him back in my wildcard

  4. hustler7
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Are there likely to be more double and/or reduced game weeks down the road with the FA Cup?

    1. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Doesn’t look like it as it stands. Obviously there is a chance the pandemic or even a group of idiot fans causes a postponement and we get another DGW but the way the fixtures are laid out no more DGW planned.

    BB Team with WC in GW 31+

    Have been tinkering with this lot.. Any thoughts?

    Henderson | Leno
    Targett | OConnel | Stevens | Soyuncu | Bellerin
    KDB | Mahrez | Mcginn | Grealish | Barnes
    Aguero | Auba | Vardy

    I have basically gone - MCIx3, AVLx3, ARSx3, SHUx3 & LEIx3
    TIA

    1. Reacher
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Double Arsenal defence seems a waste IMO

      1. Mufc202020
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Agreed. I also think 3 villa players are a waste too

  6. Reacher
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Is Mahrez over Sterling a no brainer due to the price difference?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I think Mahrez is the better option and certainly the better value pick

    2. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      It isn’t a no brainier.

      1. Reacher
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        true, otherwise I wouldn't be asking the question but, 3m extra means 2 good players over 1 potentially explosive but frustrating player.

    3. casual
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I've gone that way just for how the extra 3m balances my team

      1. Reacher
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        My thoughts exactly

    4. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Not a no brainer, but it is certainly the way I am going.

      1. Reacher
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Initially I wasn't but price diff has swayed me, just need to hope Sterling starts 1 game and doesn't do a wk1 type haul now!

    5. POLSKA GOLA
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      If you are BB Sterling eats up too much budget and damages rest of your team, if a FH team I would go Sterling and uber-cheap bench

    6. Patron
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I'm not really into it, have a feeling he wont start both games while Sterling might.
      Just my opinion.

    7. Ludwig
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes and ability to score goals/assist.

  7. Tarzan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Who would you TC this week, if you had to?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Aguero 100%

      1. Jambot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        This

    2. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Aguero

    3. Ludwig
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      De Bruyne due to uncertainty of Agueros minutes and Pep positioning KDB almost as a second striker vs top 6 in the past.

  8. MHG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Hi
    I plan to do unlimited free trfs and BB this week and WC next week.
    My plan obviously is to fill my team with DGW players.

    However my dilemma is that I have players in my current team such as TAA and Salah at good prices. I may want them back for my WC team but will then have to buy them back at 0.6m more then they are priced in my current team.

    Is this a problem/ dilema that many are faced with or have I missed something?

    Many Thanks

    1. teneighty
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      That is a dilemma. I am keeping TAA and getting rid of Salah for my GW30+ BB. Sure, I lose value on Salah but I think I will manage the rest of the season without him.

      1. MHG
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Thank you all.

        I'm thinking a compromise is to keep TAA as he could still get me some good points this week and maybe more than a Villa or Arsenal (ManC a) defender.
        There is also a possible injury to Salah and he's expensive.

        I can make up the extra cost by downgrading Sterling to Mahrez.

        So I'll have 3 SU, 2 Ars, 3 ManC, 3 AV
        Aub, Aguero & Jim leading the front
        And keep my TAA at the back

        not bad!

    2. PompeyUpNorth!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Depends on your personal circs. Such as league position I suppose. I’m ditching and starting afresh next week, but I need a boost so am putting everything into what I consider to be the best 12 doubles.. it may backfire of course, but I’m risking it..

    3. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes I lose more than 2.5M on my team. But team value is not that important in the late stage of the game. I can get the same team back if I just downgrade Mane -> Son and I think that is a fair price to get the DGW-team I want.

      1. Patron
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I kinda agree with this. I lose a bit less value than you but can't just waste the opportunity to rebuild my team with free transfers and bb, when i have a wildcard for the next week. It's a bit late in the season so i hope i wont regret it.

        Didn't try to make a gw31 wc team yet tho, im scared.

  9. Louis Van Gaalstones
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Just realised my bench for BB is triple wolves (Jiminez, Doherty and Saiss), I should probably diversify that right?

    1. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Nah, good players, good fixture.

    2. teneighty
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Just put one of them in the starting XI, problem solved.

      On a serious note, yeah, that's a lot of eggs in the same basket.

    3. Reacher
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Saiss to Lacelles maybe?

      1. Louis Van Gaalstones
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah I was considering this, would give me a little extra to play with to upgrade one of the Villa defenders (I think I have DGW fever but the tests aren't very available atm)

    4. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Good picks though. You could lose one of the defenders

    5. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I would, especially as it’s two defenders.

    6. Patron
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      well I would go and probably will for two of Wolves players, Jota and Saiss. Doherty might eat a lot of money for this week. And Jota is a lot cheaper than Jimenez. Jimenez is consistent but you can see Jota score 3 goals in a single game randomly. My thoughts.

  10. La Vida Latte
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    So what will be the first player in in your WC+31gw?

    These are the ones right now on my priority list:

    Doherty - TAA
    Son - Salah - Fernando - KDB
    Rashford - Jiminez.

    Who is on your list?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Trent will be the first. Your list is pretty much spot on though. Mané or Salah perhaps

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks! I am actually keeping many of them over the DGW (trent, doherty, Kdb, rashford, jimi). I could go Mané over Salah, depending on the news on why Salah sat out last friendly.

    2. POLSKA GOLA
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Mane over Fernando for me

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Both, Mane and Salah? I think it depends on how much they have to play for. United have a CL-spot to fight for.

        1. POLSKA GOLA
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Yes, double Pool attack and Trent for me after the double, I feel they will play 100% until the City game

          1. La Vida Latte
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            That is just two games. what about the rest of the season?

        2. POLSKA GOLA
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          I would start just with Rash and swap one of Pool mids to United mid for the City game

          1. La Vida Latte
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            Ah, ok!

            1. La Vida Latte
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 10 months ago

              Don´t think I will be able to have both Salah and Mane without sacrificing another player, though.

              1. POLSKA GOLA
                • 10 Years
                3 years, 10 months ago

                I’m going to sacrifice KDB

    3. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Maguire, a SHU def, a WAT def, Doherty
      Bruno, Grealish, Mount
      Rashford

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Yes, Sheffield have been tight at the back, but don´t you think they have rather tricky fixtures?
        Maguire I would like to have too, but it seems I can´t fit him into my team without sacrificing one of the others.

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          I have a decent rank, and SHU defence is highly owned, it’s still quite cheap, so think it’s important to have at least one.

          Lots of people without WC will have at least double SHU defence going forward.

          1. La Vida Latte
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            I have a decent rank too, but I think it is too early to play safe. There are also a lot with their wc that will not have SHU defenders I guess. Bit I agree, they come at a good price.

    4. Ibra
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      My must-have players for WC+31 team are:

      TAA - Doherty - Maguire
      Bruno - Son
      Rashford - Jimenez

      I also think I would have Salah/Mane, Grealish, Cantwell, Abraham, Pope and a couple of cheap defenders like Lascelles and Holgate/Aarons.

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers! Seems like we have a lot of them in common.

    5. Ludwig
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Good list. I reckon De Gea can be added aswell.

  11. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Best last few places on BB?

    Leno
    TAA Stevens Baldock Lundstram
    Mané KDB Mahrez Grealish

    Nkeitah/Cantwell/Targett on bench just in case

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Excellent. The Mahrez / Sterling dilemma is the hard one for me. Mahrez only plays one for sure. Sterling could be gold but is very expensive

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Sterling tends to start the top 6 contests and can see him being benched for the Burnley game with City’s first four games being ARS BUR che LIV.

        Mahrez will prob only start one but allows me to upgrade Pepe to Mané.

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          You could go Bruno if you think Mahrez only starts one? Think it’ll be a high scoring game

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            Can’t see Man U destroying Spurs on Friday night. Scrappy 0-0 I reckon

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

          I would rather have Sterling+Pepe over Mane+Mahrez for the DGW

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      exact my team except im going 343 with Tammy upfront and lighter defense and no TAA

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Would you prefer TAA to Tammy if you could?

  13. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    When do people plan to use their FH if not using this week?

    I'm probably using unlimited transfers this week but considering FH next week.

    1. PompeyUpNorth!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Am Saving it for an emergency such as an unlikely double or worse case the last week

    2. DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Depends on your team. My team is in great shape after using a few FT’s in the lockdown. So FH this week and im fine moving forward

    3. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      GW38+

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

      38.
      Load up on players that need a result.

    5. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      It is a wait and see for me. If there is a week when my team has tough matches I will use it. But I will be happy to save it for crazy-gameweek-38 if it comes to that.

    6. jtreble
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Consider GW33+. Almost no FDR 4/5 matches for any of the top 6 teams.

  14. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    How long has it been since we had a game week 😉

    Now we have game on again, should I be using the unlimited transfers for DGW30 or stick with my team?

    Got every chip available & we have all seen SGW players smash DGW players?

  15. La Vida Latte
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    How much do you look at if games are Home and Away now? How much of the Home advantage is gone now when there is no fans cheering?

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      It’s difficult to quantify that I think.
      I don’t think many games will be played with the same intensity as before, that’s partly crowd, and partly match fitness.

      Do teams have to travel to games on the same day as the match now? I mean hotels are closed aren’t they?

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I don´t know, that is a good question. Surely there must be ways to find somewhere to stay if needed?

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          I really don’t know.
          But it’s a long drive to Newcastle for the likes of Brighton and Southampton!

    Middle of mini league, most people have Aguero would you

    A) Sterling, Jesus
    B) Mahrez, Agueroo

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      still B

    Two best attacking SGW players to have for 30+?

    1. teneighty
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Jimi surely is the top choice. After that, maybe a Chelsea attacker or B. Fernandes.

      1. Cojones of Destiny

        3 years, 10 months ago

        thoughts on Mane?

        1. teneighty
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Could be gold. There are a lot of good SGW attacking players to chose from.

    2. Miguel Sanchez

      Mané and TAA for me

  18. otisss
    • 8 Years

    Good to go? BB for GW 30 then WC straight after for GW 31:

    Leno, Krul
    TAA, Egan, Basham, Targett, Saiss
    Sterling, KDB, Grealish, Fleck, Cantwell
    Aguero (C), Auba, Samatta

  19. Old Gregg
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Morning,

    How does this look?. Ozil does not fill me with joy.

    BB and WC in +31.

    Hendo/Leno
    Taa-target-lascelles-Baldock-O’Connell.
    KDB-Mahrez-Grealish-Mcginn-Ozil
    Pukki-Auba-Augero

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      The only people that Ozil brings joy to are opposition defenders when they see his name on the team sheet.

      1. Old Gregg
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        And his agent/accountant when he receives that ludicrous salary on a weekly/monthly basis

  20. Ibra
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Is this BB team gtg? I'll WC after this gw.

    Leno - Henderson
    TAA - Baldock - Stevens - Targett - Lascelles
    KDB - Mahrez - Grealish - McGinn - Cantwell
    Aguero - Auba - Jimenez

    What do you guys think about SHU defenders? Those wingbacks could get some attacking returns but centre backs are probably more likely to play over 60 minutes.

    Thoughts on this FH team?

    Leno
    Target Egan Basham
    KDB Sterling Salah Grealish
    Aubameyang Aguero Jimenez

    Thanks!

    1. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Looking good. I am not very fond of Sterling and have gone Mahrez in stead, but that is a matter of taste I guess. For one gameweek it is very much a lottery anyway. If I would do anything to your team it would be downgrade sterling and upgrade targett to Doherty/Taa. But as I said, it is a lottery.

      1. Fantasy Pig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks. What about TAA + Pepe instead of Targett + Salah? Sterling is a lock for me, I think he will be one of the top scorers for the GW. Playing behind closed doors will take the pressure off him imo.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Very nice but not a fan of Targett at all.

      1. Fantasy Pig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I’m not either but can’t afford anyone greater...

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Nice team, like the Salah pick. Can't afford those big hitters with my team value unfortunately.

  22. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Best trio for gw30 BB?

    A) Vardy Sane Bellerin
    B) Auba Mahrez Fernandez
    C) Pukki Sterling Bellerin

    Rest of squad

    Henderson
    TAA Lundstram X
    KDB X Mount Grealish
    Aguero Jimenez X

    Fodder Cantdell F F

    1. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      A can also be Mahrez over Sane.

    2. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I would deffo go B.

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

      B

    4. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers both.

  23. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Baldock or Lund?

    1. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Do you want to play safe or have big risk/reward?

      1. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I went with risky and have Lundy. He scored a brace in their last friendly...

        1. SpaceCadet
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Risky and rewarding. Cheers !

    2. Denis Tueart on the wing
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Baldock for minutes - Lund is risk of minutes but great to watch if he is on the pitch. So the latter

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I'm going Lundstram, we might get early team news though. Expect Lundstram to start one game though.

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers

    4. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Lundstram could get over 20 points if he starts both. Enough reward for me to take the risk.

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        If he starts both is the concern. Who does he usually lose his spot to? Cheers mate.

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Sander Berge, new signing. However, he scored twice in a friendly this week. And started the last game before lockdown and did well. I think the risk is known but worth it in my eyes. We may also get wary team news and then he is an easy swap to a CB.

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            His two goals in the friendly is tilting the scales in his favour for me. Cheers

    5. Ludwig
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      2 things are in Lundstrams favor
      - SHU wanting slightly more offensivly qualities in the lineup vs avl and new (atleast in one for sure)
      - Shown that he is better and has bigger impacts on games than Sander. Lundstram has risen with the compitition and im not sure if Sander has.

  24. Denis Tueart on the wing
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Following this DGW, my thoughts are to have four nailed-on mid-high price defenders until the end of the season. The main reason is that they don't tend to get subbed, if winning or losing. (With 5 subs, this could be an issue)
    So my thoughts are on attacking wing backs or solid centre halfs who go up for corners.

    I don't want to double up, but will have already TAA and Doherty for GW31+
    Any thoughts for the other two best defenders.

    1. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Maguire maybe?

      1. Denis Tueart on the wing
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I think so, just another wing back required now.

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

      Digne will be handy soon

      May also take a punt on Van Aanholt.

      1. Denis Tueart on the wing
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I like Digne.
        PVA is a punt, but I'm reluctant looking at GW31
        Thanks

    3. Ibra
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      IMO TAA, Doherty and Maguire are only good mid-high price defenders. Van Dijk could be good if you want to double up Liverpool defence. Or Alonso could get some attacking returns but he isn't nailed. I'll go with TAA, Doherty, Maguire and two cheap defenders.

      1. Denis Tueart on the wing
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        It would be great to see Alonso nail down his place again

  25. Seamy
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    If you had a 9.6m budget for 2 Nr Sheffield Utd defenders who would you choose?

    Currently on O'Connell & Lundstram but unsure about the Lord's game time.
    Is O'Connell & Egan a better bet?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      If it's just for 1 week, then I would take a punt on Lundstram. Fun and higher potential.

      O'Connell and Lundstram would be my choice as well.

    2. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Depends what kind of manager you are;

      Lundstrum has a higher chance of getting some attacking returns, but I think he’ll get less minutes over two games, and you could be left punching your screen when he gets subbed at 55 minutes, with his clean sheet in tact.

      The other defenders are more likely to get 60 minutes+ x2.

    3. Denis Tueart on the wing
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      O'Connell and Egan will get the same points 2,3,4,8 or (highly unlikely 12) , Lord can get 8 points in one game or two appearances as a sub.

    What do you think about this BB team? I plan to Wildcard next GW. I realise I am risking it by not having TAA lol.

    Leno Henderson

    Basham Robertson Bednarek Targett Egan

    Sterling De Bruyne Saka Barnes Grealish

    Aguero Aubameyang DCL

    0.2 itb

    thanks guys!! 🙂

  27. Botman and Robben

    Better goalie on FH. Leno or Hendo?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hendo, but you can always trip up on the defenders, who are all cheaper than henderson.

    2. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hendo. But there are better and cheaper options for SHU-defenders. So I would go Leno and a SHU-defender to save money.

    3. merin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hendo. No doubt

    4. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers all.

  28. merin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Saka or McGinn for DGW30+?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      McGinn from those. Not sure how much time Saka will get.

  29. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    On BB, hadn't really thought of selling TAA, will be WC next week so can always get him back. The option without looks better right?

    A) Ederson / TAA / Saka/ Fleck
    B) Henderson / Saiss / Mahrez / Cantwell

    Like thought of having extra city attacker, even though rotation likely rife, he should hopefully get a 60, and a 30 to do something.

    Stick with TAA, or twist?

  30. Dacra
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    How's this for a FH team?

    Reina (Trash)
    Lund - Baldock - Stevens (Aarons, Williams)
    KdB - Sterling - Grealish - Pepe - Ozil
    Aguero - Auba (Trash)

    Will leave me with a reasonable team going into 31, with WC and free hit left.

    1. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I had something very similar but then concluded (perhaps erroneously?) that McGinn can outscore the likes of Pepe and Ozil
