    My mids; Grealish, Zaha, Fernandes (C), Bowen, JRod (all 5 play)

    A. Zaha to Jota
    B. Zaha to Mahrez
    C. Zaha & JRod to Salah/KDB & Jota (-4)

    1. Jedi Joseph
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      C

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

      Wouldn’t but four. So A

    3. 1984 TC
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      That said, C

  2. The Frenchie
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    A)
    Martinez
    Chilwell / Zouma / Justin
    De Bruyne / Bruno Fernandes / Son / Grealish
    Kane / Calvert-Lewin / Bamford

    B)
    Martinez
    Chilwell / Zouma / Justin
    Salah / De Bruyne / Bruno Fernandes / Son / Grealish
    Calvert-Lewin / Bamford

    So basically:

    A) Kane
    B) Salah

    1. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Prob B just though that’s really tough. I’m only saying that due to fixtures

  3. Feed tha Sheep
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Have 1FT what to do?

    A. Foden > Jota
    B. Werner > Vardy
    C. TAA > Cancelo/Robertson (if not will play Taylor v City)
    D. Any two for -4
    E. Foden & TAA > KDB & Williams/ Nkounkou (4.1) -4

    1. Kevtheotter
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      B

    2. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'd do A or C

    3. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      C
      and maybe c and b for minus 4

  4. Kevtheotter
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Bottomed:

    Hey guys quick one for you

    A) Robertson and Jota
    B) Robertson and Torres
    C) Vardy and Diaz/Cancelo -4

    Will be switching from 3-5-2 to 3-4-3 if C

    Cheers

    1. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A or C

    2. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A for me

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

  5. Rohun
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Watkins and Bruno to Vardy (c) and Jota for -4 ?

    Or Hold?

    1. Sweetboi
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Why would you get rid of Watkins and Bruno? Not for me.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Hold.

    3. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      sideway moves and not worth a hit, imho

  6. Max City
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    would you lose one of Kane + Son to facilitate getting in a Man City player?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes Kane

  7. FourLokoLeipzig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Bottomed on last page...

    Would you start Brewster or Targett this week? I also have Martinez so the latter would be a Villa double-up

    1. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Looks like a 1 pointer either way.
      Brewster for a potential attacking return.

  8. Mile Plankton
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    4.2 itb, 1 FT
    Mid: Grealish, Bruno, Son, Zaha, Hendrick

    Zaha -> ? (got 11,3)

    a) Hames
    b) Jota
    c) Ziyech
    d) Salah (& Saiss -> 4,2) minus 4
    e) KDB (& Saiss -> 4,8) minus 4

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

      I actually think both D and E are worth it long term

      1. 1984 TC
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        ^This and that said

    2. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      b or c, I would do

      1. FourLokoLeipzig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        B for me (I’m tempted to take a my first hit of the season to get him in this week). Thanks for the comment above

    3. AD2110
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      B with Lamptey if you haven’t got?

  9. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    The question is ?
    You'd rather have Spurs double up with Son alongside Kane
    Or
    Add Jota to my already owned Liverpool duo of Robbo + Salah ?

  10. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Coufal or James Justin?

    1. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Justin this week.
      Coufal longer term.

  11. PapaWengzz
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Captain KDB or Vardy? Burnley without Pope is there for the taking

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Vardy

  12. mash
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    McCarthy
    Chilwell Justin KWP
    Fernandes Son Grealish Podence
    Kane Werner DCL

    Steer Bissouma Davies Taylor

    1FT, £2.2m in the bank

    Which is best?

    A) Werner to Vardy
    B) Kane to Vardy

    Planning to go with A.

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

      Had the same dilemma, set on A all week and I went for B

      1. mash
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers, it's a tough one for sure. Best of luck!

  13. JURGENAUT
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Saiss, Zaha, Son > Targett, Jota, KDB for -8?

  14. Max City
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    would you keep 6.5m in the bank or spend it for a hit?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      How is it relevant?

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

      Money in the bank should not dictate hits

      1. Max City
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        thanks

  15. MikeLowrey
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Current GW10 team

    Martinez
    Robbo Chilwell Mitchell
    KDB (C) Son Ziyech Grealish Jota
    Kane DCL (VC)

    (Forster KWP Brewster Lamptey)

    A) Kane to Vardy
    B) Roll FT

    If I do A, I can then look at Vardy to Bamford to help fund a move back to Mo

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A feels right.

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

      Would you still (c) KDB if you got Vardy?

      1. MikeLowrey
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Would more than likely put the C on Vardy

  16. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Lamps have nt yet lose to mou right

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t know. Small sample size though.

    2. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I thought it was Lamptey lol

  17. xRedArrow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is there a case for Wilson who is back and has Hayden/Shelvey back with the best next 6 fixtures of all teams?

    I am choosing him or Bamford I know Bams stats are otherworldly but Wilson nonPenxg is decent can he be a valid differential in the next 6.

    Thoughts?
    Cheers.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      There is.

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

      exactly the same dilemma for me, one of these will replace Jimenez
      couple of recent pods with newcastle fans suggest they would rather invest in their defence like lewis than Wilson because outside of pens the supply is rubbish
      Still torn myself - besides coming off injury what's your view on Wilson?

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

        Thanks for the reply.
        For me I'm going with Bamford because Leeds and him are the 2nd best attacking side stats even with his 'fnishing'. He couldve braced against Arsenal who are somewhat resolute.

        For Wilson my power rankings for sub7 mill its:
        Bam then Callum then Antonio.

        If u have bam try to upgrade Jimi to Werner who I feel Wil start firing (w pens).

        Best of luck

        1. The Ilfordian
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          The good thing about both Werner and Bamford (and Watkins) is they’re constantly in the action with chances. Eventually a big score

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

          Have Kane DCL Jimenez and want to downgrade Jimenez to fund Salah for gw12 and beyond

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

          Did you go Bamford or Wilson?
          I went Bamford, bloody Wilson!

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

            I started the thread betting on Callums fixtures but talked myself out of it and went for Bamford.

            Story of my season...

  18. SuperG
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Who to drop to my bench this week: grealish, jrod, rashford, jota?

    1. Letsgo!
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jrod or jota

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

      None really. All have great fixtures and potential for big return

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

        If it were an easy choice, I wouldn’t be asking. But my other choices are Vardy, Kane, Bruno and DCL. All those are better. So one of my original selection needs to get benched.

    3. Max City
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jrod, out of those.. considering his position last time out

    4. jimmy.floyd
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jota

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      JRod I suppose. Very tough though.

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

        I’m edging to Grealish. He’s the lowest on my Rate My Team page. Mistake?

    6. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely not Rashford or Jota surely.

  19. Mr. Mystic
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    A) Kane -> Vardy or
    B) Chilwell -> Dias? Either would save funds for Foden to KDB next week

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

      Personally I wouldn’t make either change.

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

      A

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

    Please help me 🙁 2FT 0.8itb

    McCarthy
    Konsa Chilwell Coufal
    Son Bruno Grealish Hamez
    DCL Werner Vardy
    (Nyland, Podence, Mitchell, KWP)

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

    With Foden starting midweek and Jota not starting seems obvious what happens at the weekend
    Would you make the swap this week even though city have the fixtures?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

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

      I think Jota will play. But I wouldn’t try and guess Pep’s team based on midweek minutes. I had Foden earlier in the season and when he didn’t play midweek he still didn’t play at the weekend. Far more variables than midweek minutes.

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

        that's fair
        just seems odd Foden isn't already starting more PL games and Torres is getting minutes

        1. LSK
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yep, I got frustrated with him and sold a few weeks back. Came on at half time, scored, looked great, didn’t play midweek so I was sure he’d start at the weekend and then he was benched again. He could get a run in the side now, or could be permabenched, who knows?

  22. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I have 2 FTS and 2.9m banked. Pretty much set on Kane to Vardy. Would you save the other FT or make a move? I may have my hand forced if Barkley is out. If he is, sell him for Jota/Barkley or sell another mid for KDB, and risk only having 10 players?

    Pickford
    Gabriel Chilwell James (Saiss Mitchell)
    Son Rashford Bruno Barkley* (Reed)
    Kane DCL Watkins

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’d actually prioritize to get rid of Saiss or Mitchell

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Oh really? I know they have to go but was hoping for a bit of fire power.

  23. Peekay
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which Everton defender will replace Digne?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nkounkou

      1. Bennerman
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Possibly. Not as straightforward as that, Carlo has options.

        I sure hope it's him, I've just snapped him up.

        1. Letsgo!
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          But why are u guys taking everton defenders lol. Bamford is gonna score

    2. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Prob Nkounkou, which is even more likely if they continue with a back three setup.

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

    McCarthy
    Cancelo, Chilwell, Lamptey
    Bruno, Sterling, Son, Zaha, Soucek
    Kane, DCL

    Steer, Brewster, Mitchell, Branthwaite

    2 FT, £2.6 itb

    Mitchell and Zaha to Kilman and Jota/Grealish?

  25. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Help!

    I sold kane for vardy for free
    And now i want to sell son for kdb for -4 but ppl asking me not to but why?

    Kdb against a popeless burnley...

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Always a risk losing players like Son, especially for a hit, but De Bruyne does look tasty for the next few.

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

      I think Kdb outscores Son over the next 5/6 gws
      doing it for free myself
      if he's the player you want then do it - if unsure then hold

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

      I wouldn’t. Burnley have their mojo back. Hold.

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Mojo? Who?

  26. mataofperspective
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Most frustrating week in a while in terms of fires needing put out have already done zaha+Kane to vardy/Jota for -4.

    Defence is Robbo, Konsa lamptey Mitchell and saiss

    Do I start Mitchell and hope he or saiss get minimum 1 or sell saiss for cancelo and the dreaded -8?

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'd prob take the hit now, as Mitchell and Saiss are gonna be issues going forward regardless.

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

        I’m thinking the same , cancelo for this week and next week makes more sense , than potentially a hit anyway for next week

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m in the same situation. I have Barkley too.

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

        Do you have cover at all for Barkley ?

  27. Ange Ball
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Has all the team news been confirmed?

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No, lots more press conferences tomorrow.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No, most are on a Friday.

  28. bennyp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What to do here?

    Meslier - Caprille
    Chilwell - Cancelo - Taylor - Bellerin - Mitchell
    Mane - Jota - Son - Podence - Havertz
    Jimi - DCL - Watkins

    1ft & 3.1itb.
    Cheers!

      Lose the bad attackers.

      1. bennyp
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Jimi + Havertz -> KDB + Jesus was my plan. But not sure on Jesus anymore..

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

      Havertz-jimi to KDB+Antonio/bamford still keep you with funds to do podence to mid priced mid next week

      1. bennyp
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Think Antonio will play?

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

          He was apparently almost there last week, I’d say he gets 60 this week

  29. La Roja
    • 12 Years
