    Who would play as the LWF for Man U if Rashford was out?

    1. BoomXhakaLaca1
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Dan James

    2. Emiliano Sala
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      He will be ready

      1. Bartowski
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I wasn't suggesting there was anything wrong with him, just curious.

    3. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'd change formations - 2 up top Greenwood and Martial

    4. OLB
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Why would he be out?

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

        Pulled out of the England squad, but everyone knows United players do that with sprained toenails.

  2. BHA_Seagull
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Zaha and Antonio in for first Gwk
    -4 to Bruno and Greenwood Gwk 2
    Not nice to plan for a -4 but failure to plan is planning to fail right ?

    1. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      -4 is a good move move if it works.
      Think Confucius said that 😉

    2. Marmalade Forest
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      That’s a forward and mid for two mids isn’t it?

      1. Wild Card this!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I’m initial stage - when we are selecting team - it’s irrelevant.
        We can shuffle around.

    Hi all,

    Thoughts on the below draft?

    McCarthy / Button

    TAA / Justin / Doherty / Ayling / Mitchell

    Salah / Armstrong / Auba / Alli / Greenwood

    Mitrcovic / Werner / Brewster

    1. BoomXhakaLaca1
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Fairly template around here

    2. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Can it be more template? Read last 5000 RMT:s

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        cool

      2. Wild Card this!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, but this is the first one that misspelled Mitrovic(ć). 🙂

        1. Wild Card this!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Kidding a bit mate. It’s good.

          1. ShaunGoater123
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            ha ha!

            nice one cheers for taking a look, appreciate it!

  4. Trumpeters FC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Why is nobody talking about Zaha?? few tough games early on, but a clear run after that, and at 7.0 seems a good mid option to me... and he's looked decent in preseason.

    Would anyone pick him over Barnes - or another 7.0?

    1. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Could be good, nice price point, still a chance he'll get the transfer he's been angling for. Did read a rumour that Dortmund would go for him if Man U meet their price for Sancho.

    2. Bada Bing
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      He didn't exactly light the world on fire last season and he seems to be preoccupied with a move to a bigger club for years now.

    3. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I would consider him if he was 6.0 - maybe...not with 7.0 price tag.
      That’s same as Robbo.

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

      Try my comment history - he’s potentially an excellent choice and value

    5. ivantys
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Barnes is just better, 16 goals contribution in 24 starts same ratio as Alli. I'm just worried he might not start though.

    6. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      He seems to always be pissin over the last foul
      10cent brain

  5. Sandesh_
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Which one??
    A. Bruno + doc ( 4-4-2)
    B. Martial + greenwood( 3-4-3)

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      A

    2. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      B

    3. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      It is same price but A is from 2 different teams, while B is from obviously same.
      Does that mean that you would have 2 on the bench for GW1?
      If that is the case - go for A.
      Too much money on the bench.
      There is quite good chance that you will get better returns with -4

  6. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Too much Everton?
    Ryan
    TAA,Digne,Dier
    Salah,Aubamayang,Rodriguez,Soucek
    Werner,Mitrovic,DCL

    Button,KWP,Vinagre,Reed

    1. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I think Rodriguez is a wait and see, in fact given how they played post lockdown I think Everton is one too.

    2. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Let him be priced first lol. Nothing wrong with too much Everton with those fixtures and Carlo getting quality signings

      Was really hot on Digne but he should lose set pieces to DCL and that's detrimental to his assist potential. Prefer Holgate for 1M cheaper. Vinagre should be starting every game unless he gets replaced imo, there's a case for Wolves keeping a CS in every game until GW9 - though of they won't of course - besides GW2 against City, their defense with Boly is elite.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Lol, just messing around.
        I think it will be DCL at a stretch and that’s it to be fair.
        If Doucoure comes in at 6m I may look at him.

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I want in on Everton myself - can't seem to make it work aside from Digne over Doherty

  7. fplfansss
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Please RMT

    McCarthy, Nyland
    TAA, Doherty, Vinagre, Taylor, Mitchell
    Salah, Auba, Son, Armstrong, Stephens
    Vardy, Ayew, Mitro

    1. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ayew is not FFS in template. Rest is fine 🙂

  8. Fit of Pique
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Apologies if this has already been asked, but what do you think about van de Beek @ 7m?

    Will need to wait and see if he gets significant regular minutes, but assuming he does, are you interested?

    1. fplfansss
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Would be another Siem de Jong or Davy Klaassen.

    2. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      If he does more than get regular minutes, same as any other player.

  9. R.C
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Top 4 predictions?

    1. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Exactly the same as last season, albeit with narrower margins.

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Man City
      Liverpool
      Man Utd
      Chelsea

    3. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Liverpool
      Man City
      Arsenal
      Spurs

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

      Manchester City
      Liverpool
      Spurs
      Manchester United

      Difficult to choose between United and Spurs but I'm confident Spurs will get top 4 purely thanks to the Mou second season effect.

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        United and Chelsea*

    5. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      City
      Liverpool
      Chelsea
      Everton

      1. Robson-Canoe
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Must get decent odds on Everton finishing in the top 4 if you truly believe that.

        1. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          I can dream.
          4th will probably be United

    6. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      City
      Chelsea
      Liverpool
      United

    7. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      KDB
      Auba
      Werner
      Bruno
      🙂

    8. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      City Pool Chelsea Man U

    9. Hangman Page
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      City
      Pool
      Chelsea
      Arsenal

      Ole to be fired before the Creme Eggs hit the shelves.

    10. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Man City
      Liverpool
      Chelsea
      Arsenal

    11. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      City
      United
      Liverpool
      Chelsea

      Liverpool are stagnant, nothing new, without signings they're likely to struggle ; City have a defense now, United really comes down to whether Ole can come up with a plan B or not - that squad SHOULD be challenging, only his lack of experience/ability will hold them back ; Chelsea could surprise and swap with either team above them (but not City).

  10. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Soucek will miss the opening game against Newcastle after being told to self isolate for 14 days after coming into contact with somone who tested positive for covid-19

    1. Bruno Bruno!!
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      according to @westhamtransfer on twitter

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Soucek - > ASM

    2. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Mother! That opening fixture was the silver lining on an otherwise horrid run.

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Wait imo. It's not definite that he'll miss the game.

  11. Bartowski
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    I'm starting to think we might need 15 sure starters with all these players having to isolate.

  12. onceuponatyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Best 'keeper to rotate with McCarthy's fixtures, if wanting a sub who can be called upon?

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ryan

    2. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ryan...it actually looks quite good for rotation

      1. TwiggsJameson
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yes, Ryan. That is my keeper combo.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ryan works well except for 4 GWs out of 38 where you will have to face Man U and Wolves

  13. The Mighty Whites
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts?

    McCarthy, Nyland

    TAA, Dier, Justin, Ayling, Taylor

    Salah, Auba, Son, Armstrong, ASM

    Werner, Mitrovic, Davis

    Plan, 1.5 ITB to do Son & Auba -> Bruno & KDB in due course.

    1. R.C

      Pukki is playing against Wales at same time, don't be surprised if you don't have many tuning in.

        We’ll have to reschedule

    6. SAY MY NAME

      Yes

    McCarthy, Steer
    TAA, Doherty, Lascelles, Vinagre, Mitchell
    Auba, Bruno, Son, Ziyech, ASM
    Werner, Adams, Davis

  17. Marmalade Forest
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Sorry if I’ve missed it all... anyone have thoughts on DVDB?

    £7m could be great. Heat map from the Eredivise seems good. Miles better than Fernandes’ was at Sporting (and in the PL)

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Not until we know where he fits in

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      He mentioned that Ole's plan for him is in the 16 meter box so he will play high up the pitch.

      At 7m him from GW3 if he starts and is allowed to go wild...

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Correction, in and around the box

      2. Goonsquad245
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Fernandes DM and off pens?

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Fernandesprobably to become pass master. Pogba will 'foul' everyone 🙂

  18. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    So do we need a strong bench this year? Not just one player... how many will you have?

    1. Muller Reus Corner
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Not necessarily, but playing bench fodder should be alright tbh

    2. Marmalade Forest
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I think so. Players could miss two or three games due to COVID. You’re not going to want to use transfers if it’s sub premium players. You might not get the information in time. You might have already used a transfer.

      GW12/13/14
      GW15/16/17
      GW20/21/22/23
      GW35/36/37

      All have midweek GWs.

    Still toying with a Salahless team, what do you guys think of this?

    McCarthy (£4.0m)
    TAA Doherty Vinagre (Dallass, Ferguson)
    Aubameyang Son Ziyech ASM
    Werner Ings DCL

    £1m itb

    Any critique greatly appreciated

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

      Also forgot Bissouma as 5th mid

    2. Muller Reus Corner
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      It’s alright. I would personally downgrade DCL and Ings to Mitrovic or Adams and 4.5m, in order to get a 2nd premium midfielder

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

        Thanks, i'm just undecided on firstly Fulham and Mitrovic's chances of socring many and Adams nailedness

    3. Mighty Banana
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Seems fine.

      I wouldn't downgrade Ings/DCL myself as suggested below. Adams is overated and DCl should outscore Mitro imo.

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

      I'd downgrade DCL to Mitro/Adams and upgrade Son to Bruno for gw2

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

        Thanks, i was thinking of using the money itb to either jump from Ings to Martial or Son to Rashford as i think they may offer better value to Bruno at £10.5m

        1. Pukki Blinders
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          yeah that works too, not much between your idea and mine tbf

  21. sthelenslad92
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Which would you go for out of these:
    A) Doherty – Son – Adams
    B) 4.5 DEF – Ziyech – Ings
    C) Davies – Greenwood – Ings
    D) AWB – Son - Antonio

    1. Pukki Blinders

      B

      Without seeing the rest of your team for context i'd go B

      Not a huge Son fan so B - but A with an alternative is good

  22. AnfieldLad

    McCarthy 4.0
    TAA Vinagre Taylor Lamptey KWP
    Salah Auba ASM Armstrong Bissouma
    Kane Werner Mitrovic

    Thoughts?
    0.5ITB where would you spend it ?

  23. Fergymac

    3 years, 6 months ago

    Chilwell + Son
    Or
    Doherty + Ziyech

    Do we think Digne loses set pieces if J Rod signs?

    1. Pukki Blinders

      Yes

        Shame. I suppose he might still be worth it (ala Doherty) and the extra protection via Allan/the Duke but hard to say.

          Would prefer Coleman for 1.0 less now with Sidibe gone, even more so if Kenny goes out on loan as rumoured

            • 8 Years

            Yes that's true. I'm reasonably keen on a 5m slot too.

    2. Wild Card this!

    Please RMT
    McCarthy (Ryan)
    Robertson Doherty Justin // C.Taylor Mitchell
    Salah Aubameyang Alli Maximin // Soucek
    Werner DCL Adams

      Two rotating GK. Ok (will you get rotation right) - maybe better to upgrade Robbo to TAA.
      Taylor has blank, Mitchell (hope he will start), Souček probably won’t. ASM and Adams will be rotation risk.
      DCL - well, maybe he will be able to repeat first part of the season returns...

    Are there any clues about first DGW, that is for games not played in GW1?

    Would you go for:

    A. J-Rod
    B. J-Rod

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      J-Rod

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      C

  28. Kimmich
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    McCarthy (Nyland)
    TAA - Dier - Egan - Vinagre (Mitchell)
    Salah - Son - Auba - Soucek (Bissouma)
    Werner - Ings (Brewster)

    .5 in the bank also. Trying a bit heavier up top cos I’m really not sold on any striker below 8.5m just yet.

    Somebody somewhere will wake up too close to deadline and pick Newcastle Fernandez and Jay Rodriguez by mistake

      Remember when Benteke’s brother was knocking around at Palace, surely someone made that error.

      Both of Bournemouth’s Wilsons were just “Wilson” last season too until they added “Callum” and “H”.

      • 4 Years

      Then theiris also the two Taylors, one from Bur and other Villa 😀

        Couple of Williams and Jones' too.

    Right I’m off to my private WhatsApp chat with FPL_Wazzock to find out who to sell Soucek for.
