Scout Notes

Budget goalkeeper Johnstone good for FPL save points as Baggies come under siege

West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Sheffield United

  • Goals: Conor Gallagher (£5.5m)
  • Assists: None
  • Bonus: Sam Johnstone (£4.5m) x3, Gallagher x2, Semi Ajayi (£4.8m) x1

A first-half goal from Conor Gallagher (£5.5m) secured a crucial victory for West Bromwich Albion over fellow strugglers Sheffield United.

So perilous are the positions of both teams that the game had ‘vastly important’ stamped all over it.

But from a Fantasy perspective, its significance was considerably more niche.

Unpopularity Contest

No player, from either side, went into the match with double-digit ownership levels in Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

The most popular asset on display was Rhian Brewster (£4.5m and 6.2%), who was given a second straight bit-part role by United boss Chris Wilder and remains painfully short of confidence, minutes and chances.

The match was far from boring – the 39 shots both sides managed between them was the most in a Premier League game this season. It just lacked anyone with the (relative) quality required to convert the eight big chances created on the day.

Future Imperfect

So are there any players from either side currently worth investing in?

Short answer: no. 

Longer answer: nope.

Neither team’s immediate schedule is overly promising. 

The Baggies do have Crystal Palace at home and then a trip to Newcastle up next, but things turn sour (mci AVL liv LEE ARS) after that.

The Blades, meanwhile, face Leicester, Southampton and Manchester United next, although their Christmas fixtures (bha EVE bur cry) are a bit more accommodating.

West Brom have tightened up at the back since securing their first clean sheet of the campaign in Gameweek 5, conceding just five goals in as many matches.

Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone (£4.5m) has impressed in that time and he brought in 11 points against Sheffield thanks to six saves and the maximum bonus award.

He’s now joint-top, with Newcastle’s Karl Darlow (£5.0m), for saves (44) and only six ‘keepers have more FPL points than him.

At least investing in Johnstone won’t be boring, but the key Fantasy factor regarding both West Brom and Sheffield United at present involves who in your team might get the chance to face one or other of them in the next few weeks.

Because whether they’re at the back or in attack, there are points to be had.

Reaction Round-Up

Wilder was his usual blunt and honest self post-match:

We’ve got nobody to blame but ourselves. If you don’t take your chances and don’t show that quality in and around the box or the penalty area, you’re not going to win games of football.

West Brom coach Slaven Bilic was, obviously, rather more upbeat:

It’s a great boost for our confidence and for the games that are coming.

But it’s going to take a lot more, from both teams, to persuade Fantasy managers to invest in any of their assets any time soon.

In fact, the main interest at present revolves around why so many are still grimly holding on to Brewster.

Yes, he’s cheap, but he’s managed just two shots on target and eight points from six joyless appearances thus far.


West Bromwich Albion XI (5-3-2): Johnstone; Townsend (Phillips 75), Bartley, Ivanovic, Ajayi, Furlong; Gallagher, Sawyers, M Pereira; C Robinson (Robson-Kanu 65), Grant (Krovinovic 75).

Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): Ramsdale; K Bryan (Lundstram 63), Egan, Basham; Lowe, Fleck, Norwood (Brewster 54), Berge, Baldock; McBurnie, Burke (Mousset 74).

    Bamford and DCL thoughts?

    DCL - fixtures getting a little tougher and Digne injury could well impact him
    Bamford - Stats always suggested over-performing, is he now dropping to the mean?

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

      Imho Dcl is a season keeper.

      1. FPL.team
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I think I'm selling for Antonio this week to fund Bruno.

      2. Mr-Inbetween
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        This is the sensible approach, I just fear a dip in Everton's form really will hurt him

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

          Only 3 tough fixtures in the next 10 games.

    2. Ruudy Van
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Every time I watch Bamford he gets a handful of chances. Hard to not see him scoring

      1. Mr-Inbetween
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Lol, I actually can't argue with that, pretty close to getting returns this weekend too!

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

      At the end of the season, they’ll probably both have 200 points. Bamford stats are great and Leeds are an attacking team so for value I’d probably go Bamford but good to choose one and stick with it?

  2. corderz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Rodriguez > Jota before price drop?

    1. Ruudy Van
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  3. Ruudy Van
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Current team. 1FT 0.7 ITB.

    Who would you sell for Dias- Coady/zouma/Dier

    Or Klich to someone who can get more then 3 points.

    Team
    McCarthy 4.0
    Zouma dier Coady (Mitchell Coufal)
    Salah KDB (C) Bruno Klich (Burke)
    DCL Vardy Watkins

  4. myteamissheeeeeeeet

    Ziyech to Mahrez? Already have KDB

    1. Ruudy Van
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Mmmmm a dangerous points chasing game to play

      1. myteamissheeeeeeeet
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah I get that but Ziyech really pi55ed me off today. He’ll be gone before the weekend maybe to Jota though to spread the love!

        1. Ruudy Van
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          The amount of times he kept throwing in crosses someone will get on the end of it eventually

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

      I did the opposite 2 weeks ago. Can't guarantee Ziyech won't be essential in a couple of weeks' time.

    3. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years

      Fulham chasing, like it!

  5. GreennRed
    • 12 Years

    Might get to see Villa v Newcastle in a pub, with pints 🙂

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Would be great. Sick of Heineken form a can!

      1. GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I got the taste of Guinness from a can. Not as good as a good pub pint but still very good.

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Aye. To be honest I’ve not drank much beer over the lockdown. Been enjoying a few glasses of red. I do enjoy my pints of Heineken in tap but otherwise from a can or bottles it’s pishh

    2. Iwantmorepointsthanks

      What meal are you going to have with it 🙂

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Club sambo

    3. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If you have 4 meals you might. I’m never going to have eaten so slowly as next week.

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

    Good for GW11, chaps? Barring no other injuries, will do Justin -> Dias before deadline and then Vardy & Bissouma -> Salah & Brewster for GW12.

    Martinez
    Chilwell, Zouma, Dias
    KDB, Son, Fernandes, Jota
    Vardy, DCL, Bamford

    (Steer, Bissouma, Mitchell, Kilman)

    Cheers!

    1. FPL_Motty
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Aren't you then stuck with a benching headache between jota, Bamford and dcl? Whoever is on bench seems alot of wasted money. Would pick jota or son to go for son. And use the cash in defence? Pick up robbo or trent?

      1. FPL_Motty
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        For salah*

      2. Catastrophe
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Nope, I will still only have a front 7 (Vardy replaced with Salah). Of course it would be nice to get Robbo in but can't stretch that far. Chilwell and Zouma are looking as good value as anyone and Dias has great fixtures. If one of the 'big 4' mids gets injured or drops form then i can always replace with cheaper options like Grealish. But they are season keepers for me at the moment. Cheers

  7. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best Defender up to 5.2 to line up with
    Chilwell Lamptey and Dias.

    A - Dallas
    B - Ayling
    C - KWP
    D - Coufal

    Any better suggestion based on fixtures?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      James

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

        Agreed James

  8. BeWater
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Guys who would you prefer between Antonio and Wilson for the next 5-6 weeks? I know Newcastle have decent fixtures but if I get Wilson the downside is I have to watch Newcastle games.

    1. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If Antonio plays tomorrow I'd probably want him.

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

      Are West Ham games much better?

      1. BeWater
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I would rather watch West Ham than Newcastle.

  9. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bus team for next week.

    McCarthy
    Chilwell, Cancelo, Targett
    Salah, KDB (C), Bruno, ziyech, Grealish
    Watkins, Bamford

    Forster, Brewster, Lewis, Coufal

    2ft 0.3 itb

    Any suggestions? Or burn a transfer.

    1. hewittj1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Cancelo out for Dias if he’s still a risk

      1. FPLMACKEM
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        That is in my thoughts. Do you think Dias is nailed though? It would be a kick in the bollocks to make a sideways move if pep decided it was his turn to sit out.

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Is Dias a pick good enough? Yes, he gets 6 pts with cs pts, but how much more? And is that enough?

        1. FPLMACKEM
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Who would you recommend then?

          I'm also looking at the Leeds defence. Dallas/ayling. But only after they have played Chelsea.

        2. Neves say Neves
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Decent goal threat from set pieces. I am told that he scored a few for Benfica

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

    Headed for bed... Justin, Cresswell, Souček and Antonio tomorrow... small red arrow into huge green plz

    News on Jimi seemed promising. Of course he's out for a while but looking like he's not after ending his career. Arsenal have questions to answer as to why Sideshow was allowed stay on the field.

    1. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Might as well be a huge red, Grealish Watkins and Vardy (C) are heavily owned

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

        Yeah

      2. CroatianHammer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Why should it be a big red? West Ham are favourites tonight, and low owned players on *my* team outscoring highly owned players *elsewhere* will always be a big green. That's basic mathematics. Maybe you mistyped something?

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      big red

  11. Camino Aleatorio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years

    Tomorrow

    Leicester 5 Fulham 0

    Goals by:
    3 - Ayoze Perez
    1- Teilemans
    1- Ilchencko

    There might be suicides by Vardy -C people if that happens

    1. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Lol. Long shot but would love it to happen

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

      I cannot see Vardy not scoring.

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

        Me neither but Tielemans is a canny punt I reckon

    3. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Not a joking matter, tbf

    4. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You mean Vardy Penalty miss?

    5. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I can absolutely see this happening

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

      You forgot to add

      Vardy - 5 Assists 😀

  12. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    How does this look for -4?

    Rodriguez and Cresswell
    To
    Jota and Chillwell/James or City?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Or take the drop on Rodriguez and just do Cresswell to Reece James for free

    2. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I would do just Rodriguez to Jota.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks. So you would prefer Rodriguez to Jota and play Cresswell(mun) over Creswell to James/Cancelo and play Rodriguez(bur)

        1. BeWater
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Yes but not much in it. I just think Burnley and then Chelsea will defend Everton well.

          1. FPL Blow-In
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Thanks for the input.

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

      Just the midfield move.

  13. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Planning to save.. can I ??

    Martinez
    Targett Chilwell Fofana
    Grealish Bruno (S)terling Bowen
    DCL Kane Vardy

    Foster,Lamptey,Burke,Mitchell.

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

      If you want to keep Sterling then yes

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

      See what team sheet comes out for City in the week.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If I had one to burn, I’d switch Sterling to Kevin. Wouldn’t even care if Sterling hauled, it’s the correct move long term.

  14. thepuntmaster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone considering City attacking options other than KDB? Or is pep roulette a no go

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Got KDB. Not going near another forward. I've been burned with Cancelo already.

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

        Agreed. Too much value everywhere else.

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

      Not for me.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If Mahrez is rested mideeek he is tempting as a one week punt before becoming Salah gw12

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Same for me

    4. Mr-Inbetween
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Only other I would consider at the moment is a rested Sterling, but that could change midweek and I could never afford him alongside KDB anyway!

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

        Don’t understand why Walker overlooked and Jesus must be good for a few more games. Sterling must play next week won’t he?

    5. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No point to wonder before that CL match imo. The issue is that we have no idea who is going to start. Mahrez or Sterling? Also getting KdB may cost -4 for some (like me) and extra hits are hardly worth it.

    6. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I’m probably going to get Mahrez in and make him captain, but only if he doesn’t play in the midweek game.

  15. TorresMagic™

    Could be trouble if Villa game off in GW11. 🙁

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

      Plenty of DGWs for Villa, if so!

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Uh oh. Why would this happen? I have 3 Villa.

    3. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Because of newcastle covid thing? I thought newcastle would have to play if they can field a team including youth players

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

        Let’s see.

      2. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Could be very good then for Villa players if this were the case. On a separate note from fpl, you would hope none of the players from Newcastle get seriously ill from it.

      3. MagicMessi
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        That youth players team would be magical for Grealesh and wattkins

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

      Could be depending on bench.

    5. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years

      Reason ?

        1. Arctic monkeys

          Cheers

        2. Amartey Partey
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Oh wow I was just about to get Wilson in!

    6. Chucky
      • 10 Years

      or grealish cappo against Newcastle youth team... 😉

    7. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Do you know when the deadline is for a decision 're cancellation TM should they need to do so ?

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

        It's the Friday game so well before deadline.
        If it's off, bench surgery + GK and Grealish out perhaps for a -8
        Would advise holding FT this GW for now.

    8. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I have 3 players in it 🙁

  16. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best 6.5m or less striker from now to.GW 16 or so?
    Wilson, Antonio, Bamford, Watkins?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Adams.

      1. BeWater
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        This is a good shout too as it allows me to do C Taylor to Reece James.

      2. Arctic monkeys
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        This, he was great agains united. Antonio is a great pick as well

    2. BeWater

      I have Bamford already and as Mitrovic's last owner I am considering the switch to Wilson or Antonio. Will probably go Antonio depending on what I see tomorrow.

    Just noticed I have exact funds for:

    Kane+Grealish+Hamez to KDB+Salah+Wilson (-8).

    Madness or Genius?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years

      I own the 3 you are selling and want the 3 you are buying. Can’t justify the -8 myself. Don’t particularly want to sell Kane either.

      1. Cruyff's Eleven
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, same ambiguity here.

        Having said that, one little explosion against FUL from both KDB and Salah could totally justify the - 8.

        Might offset selling Grealish by getting Watkins over Wilson, giving me DCL, Bamford, Watkins upfront.

        Ziyech, Bruno, KDB and Salah in MF.

        Chillwell, Bellerin, PvA at the back with PvA to Cancelo/Dias next week and Dallas on the bench.

    Like many I was let down by City team sheet this week and imagine Vardy won't help matters tomorrow, early days I know but think I'll roll FT and reassess going into GW12.

    Martinez
    Lamptey, Cancelo, Chilwell
    Sterling, Bruno, Jota, Foden
    Timo, Kane, DCL
    (Coufal, Burke, Mitchell)

    1. dogtanion
      • 14 Years

      Yeah..I own Sterling too. Painful not to be involved in that goal fest yesterday but may aswell stick for another week

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

        Maybe, although Peps comments and how City performed in his absence aren't all that reassuring. Will wait until Friday then make a decision on what to do with him. I've had since GW3 so selling before Fulham feels like the wrong time even with doubts over minutes.

      Unlucky with sterling (though he's been benched everytime they've played Burnley at home weirdly). But you would know the risks of cancelo and foden with city, not sure why you didn't pick dias knowing foden was already such a risk. Wrong 3 city players for me, dias + kdb are the ones

    Do Arsenal fans still rate Gabriel? He could have stopped both goals and was extraordinarily lucky not to concede a pen ...

    1. Willmissudimitrypayet

        Auba and Özil were good when they had motivation!

    2. dogtanion
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Probably been their best player this season. It's Holding ,Bellerin , Willock , Laca , Xhaka who are the consistently poor ones.

    What would you do here?Easy save imo but ManCity-Fulham could be a crazy game.
    McCarthy
    James/Targett/Pva
    Son/Grealish/Kdb/Ziyech
    Werner/Dcl/Vardy

    Steer/Coufal/McCarthy/Douglas
    1ft 0.1itb

    a)save
    b)Werner->Jesus
    c)Ziyech->Mahrez

    1. Fit_to_drop
      • 4 Years

      B Aguero still a bit away from starting

    2. Thunderbahçe
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'd do Ziyech > Jota. Double Chelsea offense seems risky.

      Two hours to go.

    Nathaniel Phillips. I’m thinking of changing Amartey or Ferguson to him as a fodder cheap defender. Currently do not have a playing bench. How many games realistically might he play?

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

      He will get some game time, but think the first team is Matip with Fabinho and Hendo in the deep midfield role atm. Though I am certain he will use Fabinho there from time to time and Matip needs his rest, so should play some games

    2. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If you don’t have a bench then I wouldn’t

    Hamez gots to go.. Crazy to move for Mahrez now before the CL-games to save money?

    Pretty likely he will use Ferran/Bernardo/Sterling/Foden on the wings in CL I would say...

    1. nolard
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I keep Hamez one more week as they play burnley.

      That gives me 2FT to work with next week.

      With CL games too this week, injuries could happen.

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Been saying that for a month now...

        1. nolard

          I feel you. Finger on the trigger here as well.

      Still lots to happen before Friday.

      1. Yankee Toffee

        I could but sick of leaking funds on him...

        Also have enough to do KDB>Salah the next GW

          KDB back for WBA?
          Sheffield Utd should have scored 5.

    1FT 0.7 ITB.

    Who would you sell for Dias- Coady/zouma/Dier????

    Or Klich to someone who can get more then 3 points??? (Klich starts when I can’t get 4 good defenders out

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      City will rotate

  27. pstokes2010

    I’m a Vardy owner but non captain, is it better for my overall rank if he scores or blanks? When does the EO damage rank?

    1. MagicMessi
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Win win situation ideal for you is him scoring but not too much lke the Bruno Kdb 10 points margin .
      But hey he'll score 2 goals 2 assists and you'd be still happy about it

    2. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Above 100% and you'll want him to blank. Not the case for vardy

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      Big differential, depends on your ML rivals but great for overall rank.

    Is Ziyech to Mahrez madness??
    Cant afford KDB and need the next best cheaper city cover for those fixtures

    1. Jolly Good
      • 8 Years

      Wait for midweek matches...

    2. pstokes2010
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Problem with Mahrez is Pep roulette. Could score 10+ against Fulham but after that not guaranteed to start.

    3. FPL_Motty
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Mahrez is a pain in the a** - you'll be wasting a transfer to get rid of him eventually, waste of time

  29. Jolly Good
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Do we need to get Salah in for GW12? Who else will be you captain next week if not him... mci play utd, spurs way to palace and Chelsea play Everton

    I can get Jota now, but won’t leave me enough itb to get Salah for GW12

    Also not sure who I would get rid of .. Bruno or kdb...

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

      Not saying Salah isn’t the best pick that GW but imo those are more than decent fixtures for Spurs, Chelsea, and KDB

  30. MikeS

    A. Kdb
