The FPL Round-Up: Pep on Cancelo, Lampard to rotate and Richarlison update

Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea

  • Goals: Alexandre Lacazette (£8.2m), Granit Xhaka (£5.2m), Bukayo Saka (£5.1m) | Tammy Abraham (£7.2m)
  • Assists: Kieran Tierney (£5.3m), Saka, Emile Smith-Rowe (£4.4m) | Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.7m)
  • Bonus: Saka x3, Lacazette x2, Bernd Leno (£4.9m), Xhaka x1

A much-changed, and much-improved, Arsenal saw off Chelsea to ease the pressure on manager Mikel Arteta.

The result meant a third straight away loss for the Blues, incurring the wrath of boss Frank Lampard, who branded his players ‘lazy’.

Fantasy managers were ill-served by Lampard in the run-up to the match, with injury doubts over full-backs Ben Chilwell (£6.1m) and Reece James (£5.2m) prompting many to sell them on.

As it happened, both started and promptly handed their remaining owners another day without clean sheet points – Chelsea have managed just one shut-out in their last five games.

The team’s most popular attacking player, the 15.3%-owned Timo Werner (£9.3m), made it seven starts without a goal, although his opportunities were severely limited when Lampard hooked him at half-time:

Timo today wasn’t giving us enough with or without the ball and some of it we have to give him time because it is a different league, but also we have to get there quickly. So we’ll see about his tiredness. I will have a conversation with him, but it was a decision I just felt I had to make.

Werner won’t be the only player nervously checking the teamsheet for Gameweek 16’s visit from Aston Villa on Monday either:

I will have to rotate players, I will have to see after Arsenal where players are in their fitness, every individual is different, we will do our best to get the turnaround right.

Arteta has an extra day to plan for the Gunners’ trip to Brighton, with the immediate future of the benched Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.4m and 7.4%) the main Fantasy concern.

In his absence, Alexandre Lacazette (£8.2m), Granit Xhaka (£5.2m) and Bukayo Saka (£5.1m) got the goals, while Emile Smith-Rowe‘s (£4.4m) energy caught the eye.

Tammy Abraham (£7.2m) managed a late consolation goal – his third in two matches – and Bernd Leno (£4.9m) then saved a Jorginho (£4.8m) penalty, but the hosts deserved their win, with the outstanding Saka bringing in maximum bonus points for his 2.4% ownership.


Arsenal XI (4-2-3-1): Leno; Tierney, Mari, Holding, Bellerín; Elneny, Xhaka; Martinelli (Pepe 71), Smith Rowe (Willock 65), Saka; Lacazette (Mustafi 90+2). 

Chelsea XI (4-3-3): E Mendy; Chilwell, T Silva, Zouma, R James; Mount, Kanté (Havertz 74), Kovacic (Jorginho 45); Werner (Hudson-Odoi 45), Abraham, Pulisic.

Manchester City 2-0 Newcastle United

.
  • Goals: Ilkay Gundogan (£5.4m), Ferran Torres (£6.9m)
  • Assists: Raheem Sterling (£11.4m)
  • Bonus: Gundogan x3, Joao Cancelo (£5.6m) x2, Nathan Ake (£5.4m) x1

A routine win for Manchester City came with another unremarkable score from the team’s most popular Fantasy asset, Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m).

More than 189,000 managers sold on the 23.8%-owned Belgian heading into the match after a run of just one assist from three starts.

And a further blank on Boxing Day has prompted another 58,000+ to put him in the top three for Gameweek 16 sales, including (presumably) some of the 561,821 who captained him against Newcastle.

With Gabriel Jesus (£9.1m) ill and Sergio Aguero (£10.3m) still being eased back from injury, City manager Pep Guardiola handed the striker’s role to Ferran Torres (£6.9m), who steered home the team’s second goal of a predictably one-sided contest.

But it was Raheem Sterling (£11.4m) who had he most penalty area touches (12) on the day, and from one of those he set up Ilkay Gundogan (£5.4m) for the opener.

That was the midfielder’s second goal from his last three starts, and although he later picked up a knock, he played it down post-match.

I got a couple of kicks on my foot, but it shouldn’t be that bad. I should be able to go again on Monday.

Based on Guardiola’s penchant for rotation, that confidence looks ill-advised.

And the manager’s comments on Joao Cancelo (£5.6m), who impressed at both ends of the pitch on the way to a fourth clean sheet in five matches, should send shivers down the collective spine of his 6.1% ownership:

He’s a player with incredible quality, and his regeneration and physicality is incredible. He could play tomorrow!

Newcastle, meanwhile, came to defend, did that well, but not well enough and then left, with their main attacking threat, Callum Wilson (£6.6m) missing out with a knock – and boss Steve Bruce’s desire not to risk him after four matches in 12 days.

The next two will take place over five days and involve visits from Liverpool and Leicester, ensuring interest in Newcastle assets – aside from the 15.7%-owned Wilson – remains the wrong side of meh.


Manchester City XI (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Cancelo, Dias, Stones, Ake; Gundogan (Foden 90+1), Rodrigo (Fernandinho 57); De Bruyne, Bernardo, Sterling; Torres (Aguero 77).

Newcastle United XI (5-4-1): Darlow; Yedlin, Schar, Fernandez, Clark, Ritchie (Lewis 66); Murphy, Hayden, M Longstaff, Almiron (Gayle 82); Joelinton (Carroll 71).

Sheffield United 0-1 Everton

  • Goals: Gylfi Sigurdsson (£6.8m)
  • Assists: Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.3m)
  • Bonus: Sigurdsson x3, Michael Keane (£5.1m) x2, Yerry Mina (£5.5m), Mason Holgate (£4.8m) x1

Everton made it four wins on the bounce – three involving clean sheets – with a hard-fought victory over an increasingly desperate Sheffield United.

‘Desperate’ also adequately describes those (few) Fantasy managers still hoping for returns from Blades players, so after a quick mention of yet another blank for the 6.6%-owned Rhian Brewster (£4.5m), it’s back to Carlo Ancelotti’s side for the rest of this report.

Gylfi Sigurdsson (£6.8m) scored the winner, his third return in those four victories, from an Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.3m) assist in the 80th minute.

The fact that was the first shot on target in the second half spoke volumes as to the attacking play on offer from both teams.

Then again, with both James Rodriguez (£7.7m) and Richarlison (£7.8m) still out for the visitors, that was no great surprise as the 60.9%-owned Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.0m) blanked for the first time since Gameweek 10.

Ancelotti confirmed that Richarlison would not be ready to return against Man City on Monday:

There is no possibility to prepare the team. We have to think about the players who can recover in two days. After that, we have to rotate some players. Richarlison is following his concussion protocols and has to stay out.

That could prompt plenty of Calvert-Lewin sales – he’s currently sixth for Gameweek 16 transfers out – as the striker struggles for goals without the Brazilian in the team.

And with a clean sheet a tall order against Guardiola’s troops, it’s no surprise to find zero Everton players in the top 30 for purchases either, despite such a fine run of recent form.


Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): Ramsdale; Basham, Egan, Robinson; Baldock, McGoldrick (Norwood 63) Osborn, Ampadu, Stevens; Brewster (Mousset 76), Burke (McBurnie 45). 

Everton XI (4-5-1): Pickford; Holgate, Keane (Coleman 66), Mina, Godfrey; Doucoure, Davies (Gomes 74), Sigurdsson, Gordon (Bernard 55), Iwobi; Calvert-Lewin.

    Ings or adams for the double GW?

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Woof - great question. I think it depends on budget.

    2. Weeb Kakashi
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Imma freehit in 19 and get Ings.

      1. CSF150473
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Free for GW 18 already

    3. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Adams - not sure Ings will play both. Adams will.

      1. CSF150473
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yea true but ings is liable to come on for 20 minutes and smash one in, plus would be nice to have him instead of Adams for after

        1. The Big Fella
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          So why are you asking then if you have already decided on Ings?

  2. lilmessipran
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bowen substitution - injury or tactical?

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Believe it was tactical but I can't swear that's accurate. Twitter is your friend.

  3. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Missed out on Mahrez price drop. Would you sell him now for Son? Son might have a rest against Fulham to keep him fresh for Leeds. Or make the move next week?

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

      Kane is more due a rest than Son, I would just go ahead with the transfer if Rash's confirmed out.

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

        lol for some reasons I thought you were saying Rash, if it's Mahrez I would just go ahead.

        1. Weeb Kakashi
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Mahrez likely to start though. Everton will rotate. Although not owning Son is scary.

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

            Not sure Mahrez is likely to start, and between Fulham and Everton I would always go for the easier fixture, although owning Son is boring.

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

    Looking ahead:

    For GW19 BB, does this look worth -8?

    Kilman + KDB + Brewster > Robbo + Raphinha + Adams

    Alternative is to just do Kilman > LEE/WHU for free

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Probably not worth a -8 for that

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Raphinaha Adams both doubles though? still no?

        1. TOLV TUMS
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Hey - it's definitely possible, but gotta remember that the double-ups don't always pay off they way we want them to mathematically

          1. Von Lipwig
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            fair, thanks

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      That should pay itself and get you a bit more so I would say yes

  5. yanky
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Mane or Rashford for double gwk?

    1. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Mane if you can afford him, but only if you already have Bruno and Salah

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

        i do haha see below. thinking son for next two then switch to mane/rash

  6. Alisson WondHaaland
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Planning to have Antonio + Vardy (+ Bamford ofc) for the DGW but starting to doubt Antonio will even be fit for the DGW.

    Best alternative?

    A) Vardy + Abraham
    B) Vardy + Wood
    C) Vardy + Rodrigo
    D) Vardy + Adams
    E) Martial + Ings

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      D)

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

      im on Bamford Wood Rodrigo, cheaping out up top with heavy mids (salah bruno raphinha soucek) and last piecd debating between Mane and Rashford

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I missed the part when Raphinia and Soucek became "heavy mids" 😉

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

          hahah well i mean 3 priced 10+

    3. Redranger
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      D for me.

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

        i dont get the adams love, no ings and tough fixtures before during and after the double??

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

          I don't like Adams too, but there's really nothing better than him for that cheap slot now for DGW.

        2. Redranger
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Lack of similar priced options for the DGW really. Other than Bamford, can’t see anyone around that range worth having

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

            true im debating Wood just nevause hes got double and next two 16 17 look tasty

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

      D

  7. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Play Wilson OR PVA?

    Vardy might not start so thinking PVA

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

      Would love a palace CS now.

  8. Redranger
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Which Trio? On WC

    A) Coufal, Stones & Raphina
    B) Balbuena, Dias & Soucek

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

      B

    2. luk46

    Thoughts on what to do? 0.1 itb 1FT

    McCarthy
    Robbo I Chilwell I Dallas
    Salah I Bruno | Rashford | Son | I Bowen
    DCL | Rodrigo

    Forster I Coufal I Brewster I *Lamptey

    Cheers

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

    Best option for the next few gws?

    a. Kane (own Son)
    b. Vardy
    c. kdb

    1. Weeb Kakashi
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Unpopular opinion: KDB
      Just been unlucky. The points will come .

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I think the "unlucky" thing doesn't fly. What he's lacked is any finishing at all from his "strikers" (which he hasn't really had), and his finishing's been poor to boot. I think Aguero coming back changes a large part of that, and then the question is whether you want City attack at 10.3 or 11.4 🙂

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

          Yeah I agree he's crap, can only assist or score pens. 11.8 is too much for someone who can't score from open play. I kept Sterling over him.

          1. TOLV TUMS
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Very much this. His price is stratospheric and his returns not so much. I've lost track of the mid/forward players outscoring him but I think it was 14 last time I checked, and only Mo's more $$$

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

              Sterling has been the one bailing city out even though ppl were saying his finishing's being awful. He hasn't really done much wrong other than that last min screamer against WBA. KDB on the other hand can't even shoot while his balls have been worse than before.

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

        Leaning towards keeping him as well, cheers.

  11. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    All help greatly appreciated.
    Very thin bench. Will FH GW18.

    Martinez
    Robertson, KWP, Dallas
    Salah, KDB, Fernandes, Grealish
    DCL, Bamford, Adams
    Johnstone | Bissouma, Lamptey, Mitchell

    A) KDB -> Son (Lamptey -> Coufal/ Taylor next week)
    B) Lamptey -> Coufal / Taylor
    C) A & B for a -4

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      B, then A, then C for me. KDB against Newcastle is worth holding if you have him (I think, anyway). I'm trying to address my own Lamptey-shaped problem as well

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

        2 days ago?

        1. TOLV TUMS
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Haha - well, there's the answer to that one 🙂

          1. TOLV TUMS
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Clearly fixture congestion in my head as well. I'll see if my internal Klopp can speak to the media for me.

  12. Dthinger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I was hoping to save my FT, but I’m worried I need three playing bench players. Do I NEED to replace Neco?

    Leno
    Zouma Robbo Fofana
    Salah Bruno Son Grealish Bowen
    DCL Bamford

    Button Brewster Targett Neco

  13. kysersosa
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Play it safe or gamble

    Martinez
    Targett, Dallas, Justin
    KDB, Bruno, Grealish, Salah
    Bamford, Wilson, Vardy

    Burke, Lamptey, Mitchell

    1Ft and 0.1 ITB

    Play it safe and bring in a replacement for Lamptey or gamble and bring KDB out for Son?

    Closest rival in ML is 18pts behind me for the month has Son.

    Any other suggestions appreciated.

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      would sell Wilson or Lamptey > Stones maybe

  14. yanky
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    WC team, thoughts? FH18, BB19. What transfers should I make leading up to 19? 0.0 in bank.

    Fabianski Johnstone
    Dias Cancelo TAA Justin Coufal
    Salah Mane*** Bruno Soucek Raphinha
    Bamford Rodrigo Wood

    a) keep as is
    b) Son in for next two then switch to Mane for double... If so since I have 0 in bank and Mane will rise I’d need to do one of below, thoughts?
    - 1. Fabianski > McCarthy
    - 2. Wood > Adams
    - 3. Dias > Stones

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

      Mane won't rise

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

        before 19 im saying. id plan on son>mane in 19, hell go up before then so id need to fund it with those options. or forget spurs (son) and just go with mane now...thats my debate

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

          Same, I highly doubt he will go up before 19. Most teams already have the Salah/Bruno/Son/Kane combo so it's hard to fit him in. Plus nobody will buy him in for 18 and 16 deadline is today, so there's effectively just one week of transfer for him which I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go up.

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

            i see!! cheers. in that case I think ill start with son for next two although the pts could be close! thanks dude

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

              Yeah Son's next 3 I would be scared not owning him. He doesn't even need form to score.

  15. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best move here? Need to use/lose a FT and planning to FH19:

    A) Riedewald -> Martinelli
    B) Douglas -> Holding
    C) McCarthy-> Leno
    D) Something else (suggestions welcome)

    McCarthy
    Cancelo, Bellerin, Dier
    Salah, KDB, Bruno, Son
    Bamford, Wilson, Watkins

    Forster, Targett, Riedewald, Douglas
    Bank 0.6m, 2FT

  16. luk46
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    who are you captaining? hard to choose this week imo

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

      Between son and bruno for me.

      1. luk46
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        no interest in Salah? He might want to show what hes capable of after yesterdays no show

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

          Also an option. Guess I havent decided yet 🙂

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Have the C on Kane currently but may not last the morning. Bruno the more low-key option and could well pay off

      1. luk46
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        ye, Wolves are usually strong vs better teams tho, can see a 1:1 there

    3. yanky
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      salah gonna be hungry

      1. luk46
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        100%

    4. jomikijiq
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      easy Salah

  17. Nightrain_
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    is Martial a good option now (don't have Bruno but planning to get him in GW19 to double up on MUN) to replace DCL considering he got 2 home fixtures and also a double later ?

    I know DCL will play in BGW but he's up against Wolves so maybe not getting much

      He might rotate with Cavani so don't think he's an fpl option.

    Question: Anyone NOT free-hitting in GW18? Love the idea of saving it for later but it definitely seems to be all the rage here. Any thoughts?

      FH18 is lock for me (on WC now)

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Interesting - seems like a lotta people on WC now are also FH in 18...

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

          yeah wc to load up on 19 double which pretty much means fh18, being aggressive to try and jump rank. could backfire for sure haha

      Saka

    The big gameweek question

    KDB -> Son

    A) Yes
    B) No

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

      no

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

      Can't help you there, in the same dilemma. Even thinking of Mane

  21. Von Lipwig

    More possibilities I'm looking at. I have to decide soon as it will affect next week's transfer. For the GW19 BB:

    A) Kilman + KDB + Brewster > Robbo + Raphinha + Adams
    B) Kilman + KDB + Brewster > Bednarek + Raphinha + Vardy
    C) Kilman + KDB + Brewster > Coufal + Rash + Adams

    Assuming Rash is fit...

    Thanks for any thoughts, I know I'm in the weeds here lol

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

      A if DGW planning
      Not C

      In B I’d be worried about Vardy being rested this week

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'd go A or C. Highly likely that Vardy gets rested in the DGW. He's 83, remember.

      1. Von Lipwig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Hahaha. Fair, swerve Vardy then

  22. ChelseaGuy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    KDB to

    A) Son
    B) Mane
    C) Hold

    Will be using FH in BGW

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Mane looked the best player on the pitch today. I'd be tempted.

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

        Yea, and he would essentially be getting an extra game over the other 2 in my strategy

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

      Might hold. Tempted to do kdb > kane with 2 fts but unsure.

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

        Thinking on similar lines but with Vardy.
        KDB + DCL to Bowen/Barnes + Vardy (C)

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

          Not worried that Vardy might be rested this gw?

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

            Yea, that's also a concern that's putting me off of it

    3. Don Van Vliet
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

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

        You reckon Son to score more in 3 fixtures (FUL LEE shu) over Mane in 4 (new sou MUN BUR) ?

        1. Don Van Vliet
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I'd say so.

  23. cescpistols111

    Is this team G2G? 0FT, 2.0 ITB. Want to take Werner out but can't take a -4.

    Sanchez
    Zouma Coufal Taylor
    Salah(v) Bruno Son(c) Grealish
    Werner DCL Bamford

    Button Konsa Bissouma Kilman

  24. tommo123

    McCarthy
    Reguilon Zouma Taylor
    Salah Neto Son KDB Fernandes
    DCL Bamford

    Nyland Konsa Davis Mitchell

    KDB & Davis -> Kane & Soucek for free?

    Well, earthquake just woke me. 5.2. Sort of a 5th midfielder type of quake.
    KdB out, Salah in, building towards BB 19, will have two transfers used Saturday morning for GW17, then FH for 18... Trusting Martinez against Chelsea this midweek...

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Wow, no kidding?!? Where do you live?

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

        The clue is in the name 🙂
        If I feel it where I am, it's big enough to have caused damage at source. Not as bad as the one in March.

  26. Sloane426

    Start Dallas or Soucek?

    1. Neo-Viper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Dallas

  27. Neo-Viper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    5 players for the BGW enough?

    Darlow
    Dias Dier
    Saka Son

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

      I would rather use the FH

      1. Neo-Viper
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        lack of close contested games is putting me off though!

        Rater save for later? or Do it the BGW itself.

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

          Depends on the team you have right now, I've already did transfers building towards DGW19, hence going to FH in BGW18

  28. House Frey Wedding Planner
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Will FH19

    Martinez, (4.0)
    Cancelo, Dias, KWP (Lewis, Mitchell)
    Salah, Bruno, Grealish, Son (Jones)
    Kane, DCL, Bamford

    1ft, 0.4itb

    Should I:

    a)- Grealish & Mitchell out, Saka & Dier in for a -4 hit
    b) Grealish out, Saka in
    c) Save transfer and go double City defence
    d) Any other transfer

    Thanks

    Anyone considering Ben Johnson?

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

      Was thinking about it as a replacement for Neco

  30. S3
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Lamptey replacement >> Holding or Ayling or Alioski or Balbuena...got only 4.6 and already have Taylor
