What impact can Amad Diallo have as an FPL asset at Manchester United?

Teenage sensation Amad Diallo is finally joining up with Manchester United after agreeing a £40million move in the summer.

After spending all season hoping Borussia Dortmund would lower their asking price for Jadon Sancho, Diallo was one of four players brought in by the Red Devils towards the end of the transfer window.

But anyone thinking of Diallo as a panic buy or a runner’s up prize to the England international could be in for a rude awakening.

The 18-year-old winger has been described by some as a “generational talent” and one of the best players in the world at his age.

He made such an impression at Atlanta in the first half of the season that boss Gian Piero Gasperini was eager to keep him for longer, only for Man United to insist on the move.

This would lead you to believe Diallo will feature straight away in the Man United first-team, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is so far keeping his cards close to his chest.

How the January transfer window and deadline day will affect FPL

“I’ve seen there’s been lots of expectations on Amad and rightly so, an exciting player with fantastic attributes we look forward to developing. It’s important we give him that time to settle in, if it’s in the under-23s or if he looks ready to go into the first team, I don’t know yet.”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Prodigy

Not much data exists for us to be able to read much into Diallo’s game, having played just under an hour of senior team football in two appearances.

But already in this time, the youngster got himself onto the scoresheet in Atalanta’s 7-1 demolition of Udinese, cutting in from the right to score with his left foot.

Footage shared widely on social media shows Diallo loves to get the ball on the right hand side before dribbling inside and taking on the full-back.

As for his playing style, former teammates at Atalanta have gone as far as to describe him in the same breath as Lionel Messi.

“He plays like Messi. There are defenders in the first team that sometimes cannot stop him. To stop him in training we have to kick him.”

Papu Gomez

In a piece on The Athletic, Wyscout determine Diallo’s key attributes as excellent close control, a low centre of gravity and lightning quick acceleration.

And far from a one-trick-pony, special mention is given to his ability to go on the outside of the full-back and cross the ball well with his right foot.

According to Wyscout figures, Diallo has attempted 9.01 dribbles per 90 minutes, which is a high amount even for a winger.

The wonderkid is also not fouled very often, showing a hidden strength despite his diminutive appearance and a preference for riding tackles.

All of the above persuaded Solskjaer to part with a large amount for a player relatively untested at senior level, watching him personally in the UEFA Youth League where he terrorised Manchester City.

“We have followed Amad for a number of years and having watched him myself, I believe he is one of the most exciting young prospects in the game. Manchester United has a proud history of developing young players and everything is in place to enable Amad to reach his potential here. It will take him time to adapt but his speed, vision and fantastic dribbling ability will stand him in good stead to make the transition. He is a player with all of the raw attributes that are needed to be an important player for Manchester United in the years to come.”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Prospects

Judging by Ole’s words above, it sounds like Diallo is going to be eased in this season, rather than jumping straight in to the first team set-up.

It may be worth noting another promising winger, Facundo Pellistri (£5.2m), signed in the summer, has yet to feature in the Premier League and has mainly been playing at an Under-23 level.

However, should Diallo impress in training and at the lower levels, the Red Devils’ struggles on the right hand side of their attack may force Solskjaer’s hand in introducing Diallo early.

Mason Greenwood (£7.1m) has struggled to replicate the form he showed last season on the right, and his game suggests he is more suited to a role through the middle.

Greenwood below-par and

Marcus Rashford (£9.6m), Dan James (£6.2m) and Juan Mata (£5.8m) have also been trialled with limited success down United’s right-hand side, with Ole even opting to ditch winger completely in some games and move to a midfield diamond.

But the diamond does not look like it will be a long-term solution, with Solskjaer stating on numerous occasions about how he wants his sides to play with pace and width.

And United hit a purple patch of form with Greenwood in the side last season, allowing him and Rashford to cut inside from wide and Anthony Martial (£8.8m) to play through the middle.

Diallo’s game looks like it suits this system perfectly and he could find himself gaining minutes sooner rather than later and in one of the league’s most potent attacks.

Value

Assuming Diallo comes in around the same value as Pellistri, this puts him in direct competition with a budget enablers such as Tomas Soucek (£5.2m) at West Ham and Raphinha (5.5m) of Leeds.

Without more to go on, it’s difficult to make a case to add Diallo to our teams until we get an idea of how Ole is going to incorporate him.

But should Diallo hit the ground running, he may ironically turn into last season’s Mason Greenwood, the man he is tipped to replace on the right-wing.

    In DGW situations where games are spread out over many days, if a match is postponed *after the FPL deadline*, does it stay in the same DGW whenever it is replayed or not?

        3 years, 2 months ago

        If

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Agree. I'm keeping Son for the double but can see why you'd want KDB

          1. ilikewud
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Son is a tough one to lose but I will likely TC KDB if in my team.

  4. JELLYFISH
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Best sub 4.0 defender? Assuming its between Mitchell or Struijk?

    1. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Coin toss between the two imo - Mitchell may be safer (which sounds strange) Once the Leeds boys are back Struijk drops to the bench.

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        As a relatively long-time Struijk owner, I agree with this

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

        Yes thats what I concluded. Thinking Struijk better short term option and Mitchell for the longer term....so given I don't want to be wasting transfers at this price point thinking Mitchell

        1. ilikewud
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Both have their risks but for 4.0 you can't expect too much 🙂

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

      Strujik defo

  5. NejiHyuuga01
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on TC KDB? Of course the Villa game is at risk but imagine Villa forced by PL to field again the B -team. Insane potential

    1. JELLYFISH
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Villa won't be forced to play it

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

        If Villa don't play that it'll be 4 fixtures of theirs that have to be rearranged, 2 of which would be against teams still in other cups and Europe, I'd be incredibly surprised if that doesn't go ahead

        1. JELLYFISH
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          But other teams haven't been forced to play (Newcastle, Everton etc) so Villa lawyers would be all other this

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

            True but those were immediate worries over breakouts that just happened, this will be weeks afterwards

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

      That game is 19 days from their last game. I would hope if isolating that they will be ready to go for the City game. The Everton game is definetly up in the air.

    3. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      They fielded the u23's in the FA Cup and postponed the PL game. Could be a whole different bucket of ducks after tonight's game

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

    Postponements might scupper my bench boost plans, but still worth doing this move?

    DCL + Holding > Wood/Antonio + Cancelo (-4)

    Two appearances instead of the injured DCL would make up the hit, and I mainly want to do it to get Cancelo.

    Gives me 14 DGW players, with Son my only single gameweek player.

    Currently 1FT, 0.1ITB
    Martinez McCarthy
    Zouma Justin Coufal Struijk Holding
    Salah Bruno KdB Son Soucek
    DCL* Bamford Watkins

    Thanks!

    1. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sensible moves, I would.

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks. And is Antonio too much of a risk do you think? Not sure which 6.2 striker or cheaper to go for

        1. ilikewud
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I'd probably risk it with Antonio. They don't really have anyone else who can play there + 60ish minutes each game with those fixtures is enough for me. Of course, there is a risk given his fitness but I'm considering it myself. I much prefer him to Wood.

          1. PascalCygan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Cool, thank you. Appreciate it

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

            And whu’s got nice fixtures in dgw and the following weeks

            1. ilikewud
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Exactly. Really nice DGW and fixture. Easy enough to move him on if he picks up another knock as well.

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

              Cheers

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not convinced with both Wood and Antonio at the moment

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

        As someone that punted on Wood a few weeks back as I needed someone around the 6m mark, I'll say don't do it, especially as I went for him during what looked like a decent run but he doesn't have that now

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Thanks. Only just seen Antonio managed 89 mins at Stockport too. I think I'll go for him.

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

        Yeah, that's the issue. Would have gone Adams were it not for Leeds game in doubt and his own fitness worries

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

        What hasn't convinced you about Antonio? He hasn't played much but was quality against tough opposition earlier in the season. 3 goals in 6 against Arsenal, Wolves, LEI, Man City, TOT, Newcastle. Thats a decent return.

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          You are basing your comments in his perfomance before the injury. He just came back from a long injury, he looked leggy and wasn't that convincing in the cup game against Stockport. Can't see him playing 2 games in 3 days

          1. ilikewud
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Who else is going to play? Even if he gets 60 mins per game surely he has a bigger upside than Wood.

    3. NejiHyuuga01
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In that price bracket only Decordova Reid remains having a double and being viable option. But his fixtures are bad, you never know though

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

        If it's a punt you could do worse tbh, he's had a good season and before their outbreak at least Fulham were a different team to the one that started this season so poorly

  7. Tonyawesome69
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    With the plan to still BB, which option is best?

    A. Balbuena and Son to Shaw(4YC)/Dawson/4.8def and Salah -4
    B. Balbuena, Son and Kane to Cresswell, Salah and Vardy -8

    1FT 3.3itb
    Martinez
    Coufal Cancelo Stones
    Bruno KDB Soucek Raphinha Son*
    Bamford Kane*
    (Johnstone Rodrigo Holding*Balbuena*)

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm keeping Son for DGW19. If anything there, maybe just change Balbuena and Holding? Burnley and a different West Ham defender?

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I think Holding will outscore Burnley def as I can't see Burnley keeping a CS against WHU and LIV. I feel I need Salah in there. I bought son at 9.6 so not much value built-up.

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Fair enough. I've had Son a long time. If it's easier to get him back, go for A.

  8. popcoin

    Top of my wishlist:

    Salah/Mane
    Cresswell
    Ziyech

        2. Pep bites Kun
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          A lot of speculation in the article, as on here. The one fact I took away was their tight schedule

          City's big three weeks
          This game starts a run of seven favourable games in 20 days before a tantalising showdown at Anfield and home clash against Tottenham.

          Before that, City's fixture list looks like this:

          Today - Brighton (H)
          Sun Jan 17 - Crystal Palace (H)
          Wed Jan 20 - Aston Villa (H)
          Sat Jan 23 - Cheltenham (A - FA Cup, provisional date)
          Tues Jan 26 - West Brom (A)
          Sat Jan 30 - Sheffield United (H)
          Tues Feb 2 - Burnley (A)

  10. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Despite obvious rotation risk, isn't TC likely a better option than BB on this upcoming dgw?

    I mean, certain premium players get picked like KDB by Pep. However, many less critical assets will be rotated on dgw and all that effort will be in vain?!

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      If KDB has 2 fixtures I am considering it

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm mightly tempted....

        He'll play. Like Salah and Bruno I guess.

        Man City could be top, in the next 3 to 6 games if they continue their recent form.

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

      TC on KDB then?

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yes

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      KDB only worth TC in 19 imo. Salah is the other option but him and LIV don't look convincing at the moment

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Agreed.

    4. Westfield Irons ⭐️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I think TC better now than in future doubles.
      My understanding is there could be more rotation around future doubles when premium players will have European matches so close to the future doubles.

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

        Hmmm this is a good point that I didn't think of before

  11. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane and Son (got him for 9m) to Salah and Antonio for a 4pt hit?

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not for me

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Will Moyes risk Antonio to play both games?

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

      Not sure I would mate because of the value that you are losing in Son....likely you will want him back at some stage

    4. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      The only way i can get Salah is Son and Kane out too, and i don't want to do it.

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

      good grief no, have you seen who Spurs are playing ?

    6. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      If Antonio stays fit I will make these moves for a hit yeah

    7. AC/DC AFC

      Possible good move.

    McCarthy is back in training. I am not BB. If Forster did play I was definitely BB-ing

  13. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Brewster to Antonio -4 or Rashford to Sterling -4(no city attacker atm)?

    1. AC/DC AFC

      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes to a

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

    Just checked the fa cup 4th/5th round draws and the fixtures for GW 29

    There is actually a very good chance of only 3-4 games taki g place that week. No game gauranteed yet

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Need free hit

    2. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah it's made me glad i've hung onto all chips tbh. Can WC in the big hitters for the DGW before it, then FH in the Everton players v WBA, Leeds v Fulham, and Arsenal and WHU players without having them stinking up my team for the rest of the season.

      1. ilikewud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Lucky! I needed the FH this week but see the benefit of keeping it.

        1. Black Knights
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah Spurs fixture going ahead was a godsend. Gave me

          Holding, Dier, Dias
          KdB, Bruno, Son
          Kane, Laca, Brewster

          for free and figured i could be worst affected down the line.

    3. Carefree Crew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I was looking at the very helpful Ben Crelin spreadsheet for those fixtures. My prediction, not his so take this with a pinch of salt.

      GW29 Blanks for:
      Liv or *Man U, Tott, Chels, Arse, Leicester. (& Their opponents resulting in 4 remaining fixtures below.)

      Bright v New
      Palace v Man U (assuming Liv beat Man U)
      Sheffield v Villa
      WBA v Everton

      3 from Man U, Everton, Villa was my initial thoughts.

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

      What fixtures will double in GW26? If Spurs double there, not sure I'll wildcard in 26 and just WC a bit later in prep for 29.

  15. Westfield Irons ⭐️
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Man City line up shocks???
    I could do with any or all of Sterling, Dias, Stones benched.
    Only KDB and Cancelo here

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I have Sterling (c) 🙁

      1. ilikewud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        VC?

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Son

    2. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I could do with KdB and Cancelo being benched (non-capper and non-owner here).

  16. Pops15
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A) Son/DCL ====> Sterling/Antonio (-4)

    B) Son/DCL/Chilwell or Robbo ====> KDB/Antonio/Cancelo or Stones (-8)

    Is it too risky to go without KDB for the double? Sterling for the differential and possibly reevaluate after the double gameweek?

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

    Any ideas here for DGW19? Open for hits

    Martinez
    Robbo Coufal Mitchell
    Mane Grealish Son Bruno Salah
    Adams Bamford

    4m - Holding Dallas Brewster

    1FT 0.1ITB

    Mane to KDB locked in, any other ideas?

    1. JELLYFISH
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Your risk is with Martinez, who is your reserve keeper?

      Notwithstanding that looks g2g imo

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

    Been out of the loop for the past week, just wondering how many DGW minutes these 'injured' players could get?

    C. Taylor
    Adams
    McCarthy

    Thanks!

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      McCarthy's back in training but might only have one game...

  19. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Please start Sterling.

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

      Please don't! It would be hilarious if they fielded Torres and Foden instead.

      1. claretparrot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Did you stick with Foden in the end? I'm praying with you here if so!

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

      Please start Jesus

  20. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Hate, absolutely hate owning City assets. You never know if they're gonna start or not.

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah first week of owning Cancelo. Wish I'd just got Dias for the nailedness. KDB I can live with (even though he is my captain) as everyone's got him and my captains never do anything anyway.

      1. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I own Dias and Stones, but went for Cancelo on FH. Now waiting for the inevitable benching!

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

      KDB Dias Cancelo benched as I brought all 3 in on FH

  21. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling(C) and no Kane and Son the next several hours will decide the season I imagine

    1. BenDavies
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No spurs assets was very risky

      1. Nice to Finally Michu
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Have double defense at least, hope that’s worth something

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

      Decide the season no, decide the game week yes

  22. BenDavies
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I hope Pep starts Dias and Stones...

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I hope it's Cancelo Dias Stones Zinchenko for the sake of the clean sheet. Mendy and Walker are liabilities!

      1. BenDavies
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        zinchenko can be dodgy too

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Nowhere near walkers level though!

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

        That will be the 4, I reckon

  23. Traction Engine Foot
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Did anyone watch West Ham's cup game? Wondering how Antonio looked..

    1. John Terry’s dog
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Loads said he looked sluggish, but then they have no other forwards

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

      Sluggish, off the pace, going to take some time

    3. Westfield Irons ⭐️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He didn't look very mobile, even considering the terrible pitch.
      He would really be a gamble, if he plays both games in the double, he will be subbed early if West Ham are winning.
      Soucek, Bowen, Coufal, Cresswell and Rice are the engine room and spine of the team now. Antonio could come good, but without full fitness, he plays like a shot shy target man at the moment, back to goal, etc....

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Hmm, maybe I'll punt on Cavani then. Thanks

      2. Alisson WondHaaland
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        As a Bowen owner Im slightly worried of his minutes as of late, I feel like he'll only start 1 of the games

        1. Westfield Irons ⭐️
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Moyes managed his minutes over the Christmas crazy period. But his replacements are Lanzini and Yarmolenko, who are not as effective as Bowen. Apart from that he has started every match this season and I think is a good pick

  24. WVA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    No chance Cancelo starts tonight, I brought him in on my FH as main rival has him, main rival took him out on a FH due to the pep comments!

    1. KINGS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      What comment?

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        That Cancelo was tired, needed a rest etc

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

    Just did Cancelo stones and kdb out to klich, dunk and ogbona

    My heart can’t stand this uncertainty

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

      Ha. Yeah of course.

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Triple City had been the voice of the community and has fallen at the speed of sound few mins before the team news is revealed! Scenes 😆

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        We are bricking it as we are about to be pepped

        1. luke
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Who’s your first sub?

  26. KINGS
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone else having difficulty fitting Salah into this DGW?

    1. McSauce
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      no essential

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

      Haven’t considered him

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Which big hitting mid do you have instead?

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

      Yes, will need a hit and not sure I fancy it

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

      I hung onto him as while I think he's been very poor in general play all season, he's still Salah and so many of Pool's goals end up with him, if I got rid of him after getting him for the first time a few weeks ago I'd probably never end up getting him back due to his price

  27. Alisson WondHaaland
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If the Leeds Southampton and Everton Villa game is postponed, I think Ill ditch the bench boost, in which case thoughts on these transfers?

    A) Kane, Grealish to Antonio, KDB (-4)
    B) Kane, Bowen, Alioski to Antonio, KDB, Mitchell (-8)

    Would leave me with a team of:

    Mccarthy(/Johnstone)
    Robbo Chilwell Coufal
    Salah Bruno KDB Bowen/ Grealish
    Antonio Bamford Watkins

  28. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Rashford has 11 attacking returns in 8 Away games thus far... and 1 return in 9 home games... madness

    1. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Could be captainable for the double. Bruno YC v Liv and he's on pens vs Fulham.

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

      Why I brought him in for Burnley, was hoping for a goal but the way the game went I'll take the assist

      1. Rochdale_Cowboy
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        6 points is a fail on a FH

    3. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He was rubbish yesterday. His assist was like a mars bar in a crap lunch box

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I know, delightful, can't argue with picking someone that has returned in every away game though

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Has that priceless FPL habit of picking up points when playing rubbish

        Kid's a baller once he gets backon the left, cutting in from the right just doesn't suit him anywhere near as much

  29. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Time for Cancelo disappointment

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Are you hoping for one?

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

      Noooooo

    3. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He's due his 24 point climax game today

      Then a Bum Rush to transfer him in for the Double

      Then a brutal Pepping

  30. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    ooh Sterling owners!

    1. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      What happened?

      What happened to my little Raz?
