    Play?
    Lamptey (Bur) or Robbo (City)
    Podence (Leics) or DCL (United)

    Martinez
    Robbo, Zouma, Chilwell,
    Grealish, Salah, Zaha, Son C
    DCL, Kane, Bamford

    Steer, Podence, Lamptey, Mitchell

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

      Lamptey and DCL

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Lamp and Dom

    3. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tough. I'd definitely bench Podence and probably bench Robertson.

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

      seriously can't condone benching Robbo
      sure he may blank but why take that chance - he has a higher ceiling than Lamptey

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

      I couldnt bench a 7+ defender.... you'd regret that call more than bench Lamptey if the benched one did better (if that makes sense)

      Play Rob & DCL

    6. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers not easy decision, Lamptey is a machine & I can see Podence destroying Leicester?
      Pool cannot buy a clean sheet & DCL needs JamesR, Digne & Richy to flourish

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Digne is back this weekend and James might be too, I think there'll be goals in that game, Everton will want to get back to winning ways and stick to the top of the table while MU desperately need to pick up form

  2. SHOWSTOPPERRR

    Any pressers today?

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Wilder - 9am
      Bruce - 10am
      Bielsa - 12.30pm
      Parker - 1pm
      Mourinho - post-Europa League

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

        No potter?

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

          Potter is the one I want to get a read on Ryan.

        2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Potter was yesterday

  3. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Is Pulisic still out? No word from Frank since Tuesday. Ty

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Presser tomorrow?

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Too late!

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

    The right option is to:
    Hold Jimi
    Move Jimi to Werner
    Move Jimi to Wilson, funds then shift to Kdb for gw10

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Last one in the long term. Seems to be some fear on here that Werner will get a rest.

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

        i feel with havertz out and potentially pulisic too he surely starts but stranger things have happened
        would normally be antonio but no updates yet

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

          I thought Antonio was confirmed out for this week?

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

      I like C but if you've only 1ft then may go A? see how the IB goes for you? 2 fts might be a god send

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

        thanks, got 2ft
        one is likely saiss to coufal unless we get an update he's def starting
        could of course hold Jimi and wait post IB - but that seems boring

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

          take boring! who knows who might get injured/infected/quarantined

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

            sound advice!

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

    Any help greatly appreciated lads. 1 FT 0.5itb

    TAA, Lamptey,Taylor (Saiss, Mitchell) is my defence, Lamptesy slight concern & probably no sub defender

    A: Ings to Wilson (bench Podence)
    B: Bank FT, play Podence (lei) & bench Ings
    C: Saiss to Coufal as cover. Play Podence, bench Ings

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Saiss to Coufal - play Coufal

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

        Bench Ings & play Podence is in that option... you think wise?

        Play Coufal over Taylor?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Over Taylor, yes.
          Why bench Ings? if fit he might get something, if not he won't feature.

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

            he's out for 4-6 weeks im pretty sure

            1. Fulchester's New Centr…
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              Bench Ings - reassess over IB.

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

                cheers for the replies

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

      Ings is out for a month+
      only reason to keep is to bank 2FT and sell next week otherwise just too many other scoring options out there

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

        cheers HMC... might go B & just play Podence

  6. Gunners in Haaland
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Jota injured?

  7. Linca - TerribleFromKepa
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    1 FT and 1.1 in bank

    Thinking Saiss to Zouma or Chilwell. At the same time I'm tempted to downgrade Jimenez to A Bamford or Wilson to allow a Podence to KDB in a few GWs...happy to take a -4

    Martinez (steer)
    TAA, Saiss, Lamptey (Taylor,Mitchell)
    Salah, Son, Grealish, Podence (bissouma)
    Kane, Jimenez, DCL

    Cheers lads.

    Ole > Poch for a hit? Yay or nay?...(or all day?)

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Worth it in the long run.

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

      Woodward and Matt Judge to Van Der Sar and his scouting team will do something actually since no.manager can help a team of characterless players

  9. Bielsa Murderball
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    do you think bamford is a must-have? leeds are such an attacking team, aren't they?

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

      there's no "must have". he's a great option

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

      Nah, not must have. Decent enabler though

  10. Kun Tozser
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Any news on Antonio?

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

      Unlikely to be fit for GW8 but should be good after the IB

  11. Return of the FF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What do you reckon here..?

    Use my 1 FT this week Robbo to Chilwell

    Or roll to next week and do Son to Sterling and Robbo to Walker?

    I currently have no City or Chelsea assets, also sold Trent a while back.

    Cheers!

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Chil worth having yes, better option than walker anyway.

      1. Return of the FF
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers... how come you think Chil a better option than Walker? Do we know if Chil will keep set pieces? Seems to be losing them?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Chelsea looking solid and Chilwell still attacking.
          I'd rather Diaz (cheaper than Walker) or Cancelo (more attacking and cheaper) if going City def.

          1. Return of the FF
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years

            Much appreciated

    Good news that Moyes's press conf is tomorrow and not today.

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

      Whys that good news?

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

        He could came out today and said something like "Antonio is making big progress but we will decide in the last training tomorrow morning.

  13. HNI
    • 10 Years

    Woodward and Matt Judge to Van Der Sar and his scouting team will do something actually since no.manager can help a team full of characterless players

    1. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      That makes no sense a second time.

  14. NUFCAndrew
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Pulisic out for who?

  15. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What to do with foden?

    A....play and hope for the best (bench is James mitchell burke)

    B....lose for bowen - 4

    Thanks

    1. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years

      a

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

      Seen this a couple of times from you Flynny. I have Foden and the same bench. I really like Bowen too but at the moment I'm leaning towards keeping and reassessing over the IB. I drew up some pros and cons re Foden the other day to help inform my decision, concluded he could be great value over the coming weeks.

      Pros

      - Price, 6.6 City mid who has been returning when he plays.
      - Plays for a team who are likely to score plenty of goals over the coming weeks, when he's on the pitch, good chance he'll be involved.
      - 9 SIB this season which going into GW7 was more than any other team-mate.
      - Has potential to score off the bench if required as we've already seen this season.

      Cons

      - Reported as being 'under the weather' of late but rotation will always be a factor regardless, how often is yet to be seen.
      - Holding onto Foden blocks other City assets who are arguably more nailed at the moment.
      - There are other players in and around his price bracket who are catching the eye and offer more assured game time.

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

        Thanks mate.

        I'm just concerned that he will be benched this week

        In hindsight should never have got on wildcard.

        V tempted with the hit.

        Good luck

  16. OptimusBlack

    Nope Kane

  17. Bagayokeso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Are any of these worth a -4? or should I just go with my head and leave it. 1.7itb
    A) Mitchell to Coufal
    B) Barnes to Bowen
    C)Brewster to bamford (bench barnes)

    Mccarthy,
    Trent, Chilwell, KWP,

    Steer, Mitchell, Taylor, Brewster

    1. Bagayokeso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      or barnes to Ziyech

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Do all mangers have pressers tomorrow?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Some today:

      Wilder - 9am
      Bruce - 10am
      Bielsa - 12.30pm
      Parker - 1pm

    A. Taa, Podence => Zouma, Zaha/ Grealish
    B. Taa, Podence, Jimi => Chilwell, Ziyech, Wilson (-4)
    C Taa, Podence, Jimi => zouma, jota, werner (-4)

  20. Totti
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    reposting looking for replies

    who to get for the coming three fixtures?

    A) zaha
    B) bowen
    C) fornals

    1. Bagayokeso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Fornals is looking betetr statistically but I like Bowen as a player so I'd probably go for him personally

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

        over zaha?

  21. CAPA
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is there a best view on whether Reece James will start on Saturday given he played 90 last night?

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

      Seems like a good game to rotate players

    1. Joey Tribbiani
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      1 player sticks out

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

      Not great. Captains Auba, Elneny starting and Allison in goal.

  22. Gazza2000
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Would you save here or get Chilwell in for Saiss and play him over Justin or Ayling?

    1FT 2.6 ITB

    McCarthy
    TAA Ayling Justin
    Salah Son Hamez Podence
    DCL Kane Bamford

    Steer Bissouma Mitchell Saiss

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

      You have 3 starting defenders this week so i would hold and see what happens to Saiss this weekend. I dont think its a foregone conclusion that he will see more bench time.

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

      Podence->Grealish imo and start Saiss over Ayling.

  23. Fit_to_drop
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Are people who are after Timo not a little worried that whenever Tammy is on the pitch with him (which could be for the foreseeable games) Tammy is the one who is occupying the space between the width of the posts and Timo is the one running the channels? That would certainly concern me as when he was successful in Germany he was almost always the lone striker with supporting midfielders.

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

      Not really too worried. He will probably play left flank against Sheffield United this weekend who are conceding a lot of chances down their right hand side.

  24. Jullepuu
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What should I do here? 1 ft and 3.6 in the bank

    A, B or C?
    Thoughts on which is better? I have 2 FT

    A) TAA + Podence + Jimmy --> Vestergaard + Ziyech + Werner (-4)
    B) TAA + Foden + Jimmy --> Creswell + Ziyech + Werner (-4)
    C) Saiss + Jimmy --> Lamptey + Werner (no hit)

  28. Tom (FPL Connect)

    Need a Mane replacement. Son or Rashford for next 2 then flip to KDB in GW10? Or go for KDB now and save a transfer later? Rashford seems best but so hard to trust United.

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

      Why replace?

      Go for Kevin now

      1. Tom (FPL Connect)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years

        Have Salah already, don't fancy the double for next 2 fixtures

  29. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years

    Play:

    1) Podence vs Lei
    2) Foden vs Pool
