Which FPL forward should we choose to replace Harry Kane?

It’s been a while since I did the Burning Question format so I thought it would be a good time to revisit it. I asked the community to send me some questions and I’ll be answering a few here. Let’s get stuck right in.

Q1) What is the ideal front three if no budget constraints? @pras_fpl

Hi Pras, thank you so much for the question. Hope you are doing well. The injury to Harry Kane (£11.3m) and the lack of form of Patrick Bamford (£6.7m) has opened up the striker positions. Just a small note on Patrick Bamford, in the last four matches, he sits outside the top 30 players in the league for expected goals (xG). It’s easy to forget that he is still fairly cheap and offers value but he has a mixed bag of fixtures in the next five Gameweeks and doesn’t make my list for the ideal front three. So who does make my list?

Calvert-Lewin and Bamford the Fantasy focus as Everton host Leeds

First up, it’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.6m). Yes he has had four blanks in a row but it is worth mentioning that his merry men are back and as noted by Tom Freeman in his excellent article, Everton are a different beast when all their main players are playing together. Here is what Tom cited:

“Everton are a different proposition when they can get Lucas Digne (£6.0m), James Rodríguez (£7.7m), Richarlison (£7.8m) and Dominic Calvert-Lewin all on the pitch at the same time. In fact, in the six league games they’ve started together this season, the Toffees have scored a massive 17 goals.”

Tom Freeman

That is an average of 2.83 goals per game. In the next four Gameweeks, Everton face Newcastle (home), Leeds (away), Manchester United (away) and Fulham (home). Three of those teams are in the bottom six of the league for expected goals conceded (xGC) in the last six matches. Fixtures and the calibre of opposition when they have all their main attackers fit are the reasons why DCL is top of my list of strikers at the moment.

The next two forwards who make up the ideal strikeforce for me are Michail Antonio (£6.4m) and Ollie Watkins (£6.2m). Antonio just makes West Ham better as an attacking outfit and owners were extremely unlucky to come away with just an assist against Crystal Palace.

He should have had a lot more from the game but he looks very sharp on the eye-test, has good underlying numbers, and has a fairly decent fixture run as well. Also worth noting that in the last four matches, West Ham are in the top five in the league for Big Chance Threat (BCT) and for attempts in the box which further justifies the presence of Antonio making the Hammers a much better attacking unit.

The same can be said about Aston Villa who also find themselves in the top five in the league for big chances and shots in the box in the last four matches. They also look like an excellent outfit in attack and are capable of scoring goals against any opposition. Watkins has great underlying numbers as well. He is second among all strikers for BCT in the last four matches and sits third in the league for shots in the box in the same period.

Q2) If someone wanted to take a punt on Chelsea now, with good fixtures and a possible manager bounce, which two or three Chelsea assets would you suggest? (@PierreM80702057)

Hi Pierre. My fellow Pro-Pundit and co-host Zophar always says it is better to be late to the party rather than arriving early and realising it is a dud. As you already know, I’ve been guilty of this crime quite a few times this season and it’s one of the big reasons I’m having a poor campaign.

When it comes to Tuchel’s Chelsea, simply put we just don’t know anything about them right now. I would suggest keenly monitoring them for the next two-to-three games before jumping in because the manager is just getting to know his players right now. Let me quote from this excellent piece on Tuchel on FFScout:

“Whatever system and style Tuchel chooses to deploy at Chelsea, he always tailors it to the players he has at his disposal.”

“My role is that of a service provider, I’m here to help and support the players.”

Thomas Tuchel

It’s very early to tell who is going to benefit from having Tuchel as a manager but I’ll just say that the first game against Wolves looked really encouraging for Kai Havertz (£8.2m) who played a lot closer to goal than under Frank Lampard. That said it is very early to draw any conclusions and I’d urge FPL managers to keenly observe for some time before jumping in.

Q3) Is Man City double defence a risk now with Laporte back and raring to go? (@fpl_saffer)

Hi Kevin, thank you so much for the question and first up huge congratulations for the season you’re having. I know you’re currently in the top 50 Overall Ranking at the moment so you definitely don’t need to be taking any advice from me.

→ How many FPL points did Aymeric Laporte register across Manchester City's three Double Gameweeks?

With regards to the Manchester City centre-backs, I see no reason for Pep to change the partnership he has at his disposal right now which is why both remain good picks. I think he’ll persist with the same two in defence and you’ll probably only see a little bit of rotation due to fixture congestion and that’s about it. I wouldn’t worry about them until Pep actually makes some changes.

Q4) Who are the second best premium defensive assets (with some attacking output) behind the City boys? Liverpool, Leicester, United, Chelsea, Spurs? Or just go budget? (@FPLAlternative)

If you’re looking for a defender to pick outside of the Manchester City names, the one I’d like to recommend is Lucas Digne.

Returning Digne can help Everton's attacking assets return to form in Gameweek 20

Like I mentioned earlier in the article, Everton have a great bunch of fixtures coming up. It is worth noting he was played as a left-winger in the previous game which makes him a very enticing option and even if he isn’t out-of-position (OOP), his numbers this season have been really good.

He’s top of the league for assists per 90 (0.49 assists per 90mins) and especially with James Rodriguez back in the team and in form, I think it increases his points potential a lot. Ben Godfrey’s (£5.0m) form also means that he could potentially still be OOP for a while. Only two teams have conceded fewer goals and big chances than Everton in the last six matches so that is very promising as well.

That’s it from me for this week and I hope you enjoyed this article. Our latest episode of The FPL Wire has some more detailed information as well which you can view below in case you fancy it.

    Hello DZ.
    Any news on how long is Kane out?

    I got him at 10.5. Missed tonight's price change to sell him at 10.9.

    Sell him or Wilson for DCL?

    1. Salan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No clear information on Kane, but I believe it's wise to just replace him by another one. Personally I guess Kane will be out for 2 to 4 matches.

      1. Mile Plankton
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I guess if he misses next 3 GWs and drops to 11, it's not that much of a loss.
        I just wish I could sell him for a mid and go 3-6-1 since there are no premium forwards available.

    2. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane to DCL was my FT move

  2. FPL Alaska
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start Areola or Martinez?

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm starting Areola

    2. gonzalocampos
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Martinez

  3. MikeLowrey
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) Play Mitchell
    B) KWP to Stones for a hit

  4. Simon69
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Cancelo or Foden (c)?

    1. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Neither

      1. Simon69
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Don't fancy my other options much: Bruno, Maddison, Ziyech, Werner, Antonio

        1. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I think Maddison could put Leeds to the sword

    2. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I like a Foden punt.

      1. Simon69
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers!

    3. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cancelo

    4. b91jh
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Foden!

  5. Clintymints
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Would you rather bench Harry play Holding

    Or -4 for chilwell in for Harry?

  6. Gabbiadini
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What is the pull of Mane over Salah, price, form... anything else of note?

    1. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He scored more fantasy points last match

    2. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Mane has been as sh1te as Salah in previous 4 games. One good game does not mean he's on form.
      Salah still better option, imo.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        This

      2. Gabbiadini
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I would select Salah too, just stating what seems to be a general consensus.

    3. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Better underlying stats for a while now, a streaky player who looks to be returning to form, benefits the most from TAA getting to his best due to his crosses, .7 lower.

    4. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Salah off the pace a bit mane better for it

      Either could haul

  7. ooooo
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Captain?
    A) Salah
    B) Cancelo.

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

  8. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best option?

    a) Adams > DCL, bench Bamford
    b) Adams > DCL, bench Antonio
    c) Play Bamford & Antonio, save FT

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A easy

  9. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed

    Martinez
    Stones - Robertson - Dias
    Soucek - Son - Gundo - Salah - Bruno
    DCL - Bamford
    _______________________________
    Forster: Dallas: Holding: Brewster

    Is it worth a hit to do Soucek to Barnes?
    Forever missing Soucek’s points whereas Barnes is the only one I can see a hit being potentially worth it?

    Or just stick?
    Cheers fellas.

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'd play Soucek

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers Bergkop!

    2. Areyouthereyet
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’m looking at moving Souchek to Barnes, might even captain him. But not for a hit.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ahh ok, yeah not for a hit is probs wise cheers buddy

  10. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Is Gundogan the GameStop of FPL? Up there with the big boys tonight

    1. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm capping him. Salah would be the gamestop. Dead fpl asset loved by many, on a bad form, and then out of the moon all his owners have faith on him and he delivers.

  11. BurnMyBread
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A) Bench Bamford or Lookman

    1. BurnMyBread
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B) Watkins and Rodriguez or DCL and Barnes

      1. Mile Plankton
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I have a soft spot for Hames, so B) Watkins and Rodriguez

    2. FPL Alaska
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A) Lookman
      B) DCL and Barnes

  12. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Captain who?
    a. Bruno
    b. Gundo
    c. DCL
    d. Salah

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I get a strong feeling we could all be massively overlooking Bruno as captain ya know, get this odd feeling that United are gonna thrash Arsenal and Bruno has to be in the mix.
      Saying that, has to be the man of the moment for me in Gundo

      1. FER FUSCH AKE
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Every time I cap the obvious pick, I always end up underwhelmed. On Gundo but I know my ML rival who always has Bruno perma-captain is going to smash it.

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Haha same here, which is why I thought maybe going Salah or even DCL, however DCL is the early kick off and Pool will of had less rest than West Ham, Gundo only played half a game and Sheff Utd are no better than West Brom, so all this added up to me going Gundo Captain.

      2. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Worth hanging onto Rashford despite his rubbish returns then? (already have Bruno)

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I would say so just about, think they’ll of had a hiding after that Sheff Utd game.

          1. BERGKOP
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Good thinking.

      3. jia you
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        no chance we thrash Arsenal imo

  13. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Jesse Lingard starting ahead of Benrahma would be a peak Moyes thing.

  14. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Head scratcher this week for captain.. Gundo, Sterling or DCL .... have a gut feeling for Barnes (but ultimately dont havevthe guts ironically) ...

    Any thoughts peeps?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Any of Gundogan/Sterling should work. Dominic has a lower ceiling of 6-7pts, so he wouldnt be my cap.

    2. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I am going with Sterling. Team on form, hope he can go back to back double digits.

    3. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I once captained Barnes. He conceded and got subbed early. 2 pointer Wasn't fun.

      Stick to gundo

    4. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Currently on Gundo but may switch to Sterling.

  15. Mile Plankton
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bench one:

    S) aka
    B) amford
    W) ilson

    1. FER FUSCH AKE

      Saka

      1. Mile Plankton
        • 11 Years

    4. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I have the bamford vs Wilson benching headache at the moment... likely to bench Bamford.

  16. Ange Ball
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kane Replacement?

    A) Werner
    B) Abraham
    C) Watkins

      Firmino

      1. Ange Ball
        • 9 Years

    2. Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I went with Werner. Already have Watkins.

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

        Any reasons as to why Werner?
        Im looking at getting him in.

        1. Ange Ball
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I dunno I think he due double digits

      2. Ange Ball
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        nice

    3. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      None of the above ... Watkins if pushed.

  17. fplfansss
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    G2G?

    McCarthy
    Dias, Targett, Cancelo
    Gundo, Son, Salah, Bruno
    Antonio, DCL, Bamford

    Bench: Button, Soucek, Justin, Mitchell

  18. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bamford> Werner??

    Werner should be starting from now on.

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’d never ever let Werner even look in my teams direction, but hey if you fancy it do it

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

        Haha. I just feel like he is too good of a player to continue his current run.

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          True he’s good, but just isn’t showing form at all

    3. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You really love Werner

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

        Early to the party. More chances of a dud than a Cracker.

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

      Maybe. If he does become starter and plays up front. Wouldn't get him if he stays on the wing.

    5. Ange Ball
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Do what you want to do don't follow others

    6. Eh, just one more thing ...

      Its late, you're tired.

  19. Salan
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Gundogan is still a differential with less than 20% selection rate. I may captain Salah (with good track records vs Westham) for doing little bit hedging.

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think he's a great pick. Can't ignore that fixture and his form.

      1. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Gundo that is

  20. noahzark22
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Loris
    Robertson, Cancelo, Stones, Justin
    Salah, Foden, Son, Barnes
    DCL, Bamford

    Johnstone, Coufal, Soucek, Wood

    Used 1/2 Ft for Kane to DCL. Thinking Coufal to Digne or Chilwell. Foden to Gundo seems a waste 3.5 itb

  21. Boomerang V
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I have 10.6 in the bank lol

    I am on -4, should I use my funds to upgrade Mitchell for anothet hit?

    Martinez
    Dias Stones Mitchell
    Salah Bruno Maddison Gundo
    Dcl Bamford Antonio

    Steer Soucek Holding Coufal

    0FT 10.6 itb

    1. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No, since you can't get Cancelo.

  22. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Am I crazy to start Coufal ahead of both Bamford and Wilson?

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

      I'd start one of the strikers.

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      maybe, maybe not.

    3. Sloane426
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes. That’s dumb

    4. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Currently starting Wilson ... but he and Bamford both fill me with such disdain.... one out for Antonio next week.

      Coufal does seem a bit if a long shot...

  23. Mile Plankton
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I wouldn't go that far.

    1. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Reply fail to Eh, Just One More Thing

  24. ooooo
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Captain?
    A) Bruno
    B) Salah
    C) Cancelo

    1. Hitman MHK
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If I had him, I'd be going C

    2. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I reckon Cancelo can't haul back to back. But he's as good pick as those two.

  25. Hitman MHK
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Top 250 and seriously considering Barnes (C). Anyone else with me?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Is he worth a hit doing Soucek to Barnes ya reckon?

      1. Hitman MHK
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I personally wouldn't, which is ironic. Not a fan of hits, especially to sell someone in form

        1. Salah’s Sonnet

            Thanks mate, all the best with your season as well!

    2. Weeb Kakashi

      Very good option. Perfectly suited to how Leeds play.

      Whoa... Who are we to give you advice? Amazing rank, but you've asked... I'd personally go with the high % play at this point. Keep you in touch.

      1. Hitman MHK
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Hahaha feel I'm trying to hedge my bets after missing the Cancelo and Gundo bangwagon! Outside of another punt on DCL, Salah is my second best candidate but he hasn't looked the goods lately. Barring the disallowed goal, which was a decent finish of course

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

      well, you know better than us average players 😉

    5. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      First of all, you should be the one giving advices. 🙂

      Looks like this is the GW for a punt.
      I'd consider Maddison if I'd have him. Barnes is too much of a punt for me.

      1. Hitman MHK
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Damn, I'm reconsidering now. Back to the drawing board it seems!! Ahaha

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

          There is a reason you are in top 250. Follow your instinct. Assess your other options too.

          GL

          1. Hitman MHK
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yep, all about that gut feeling! Appreciated!

      2. Bad Kompany
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I think Barnes is better suited for this game than Maddison

        1. Hitman MHK
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I agree. He'll catch them out on the counter and given Leeds give up so many shots on the road and Barnes sure loves a strike, I reckon he can catch fire in this fixture. We'll see I guess

    6. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nope not me

    7. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I just posted a similar question about Barnes captain as I have a gut feeling but ultimately don't have the guts to take a punt.

      With your 250 rank though, let me ask you, how many punty captain calls have you made vs safe bets this season and how did they play out for you? That might direct your thinking?

      1. Hitman MHK
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Every captain call has been safe, every....

        You got me on that one. Damn haha, reconsidering. What are you doing yourself?

        1. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Haha there you go ... why change a winning strategy?
          Playing safe too ... between Gundo, Sterling and DCL ... prob go with the majority at C Gundo ...

          1. Eh, just one more thing ...
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Which in itself, any other season, would be the absolute definition of punty.

            1. Hitman MHK
              • 11 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Hahaha exactly. For me he still seems a punt even though the stats are there. I'm personally hoping he blanks given I don't own him, but I can see the rationale why you'd give him the armband.

              Very tough between him and Sterling. Not everyday you captain someone sub $6 mil!

              I'd go Gundo... just.

              1. Bad Kompany
                • 6 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                Vardy and Mahrez the year they won the league. Price should be ignored for captaincy (although it’s hard psychologically). He’s playing high up the pitch and getting in the box for city and is against the last place team and he’s on pens

                1. Hitman MHK
                  • 11 Years
                  3 years, 1 month ago

                  Yep. I think you decided in that last sentence yourself! Good luck mate haha!

    8. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Decent shout but not for me. I’ve owned him last year and earlier this year and it’s infuriating watching him at times miss chance after chance. He sometimes seems to score the tougher chances more often than the easier ones. I wouldn’t trust him with the armband

      1. Clintymints
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Not clinical or even remotely consistent

        Not A captain

        1. Bad Kompany
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Exactly. Great option. Think Leeds suite him really well but you don’t just need to get chances, you also need to convert them

          1. Hitman MHK
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yep, correct. He's a selfish player from a fantasy perspective which is fantastic of course. Just need to be more clinical. Who are you captaining?

            1. Bad Kompany
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Currently on Gundo but really undecided. DCL, Bruno, and Salah also options.

              Probably shouldn’t listen to me though. I’ve had 6 blanks in a row

              1. Hitman MHK
                • 11 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                A lot of people going Gundo but given the form he's in and the majority picking him, I'd give him the armband and hope for the best!

                1. Bad Kompany
                  • 6 Years
                  3 years, 1 month ago

                  Cheers! You’ve done extremely well this season so I trust your advice. Think I’ll log out until after the deadline

                  1. Hitman MHK
                    • 11 Years
                    3 years, 1 month ago

                    Ahaha I think I’m going to do the same! Much appreciated, all the best. I just got lucky!

  26. Holmes

    Any fresh updates on Kane's injury?

  27. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Digne OR Cresswell for the next 4?

    1. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      D

    2. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Digne fir me ... just brought him in for a -4

    3. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Digne easy

    4. Weeb Kakashi
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Digne or Chilwell i meant. Sorry

      1. Hitman MHK
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Very tough. Both similar where they are OOP. I'd want to wait on Chelsea players, so I'd go Digne

  28. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Why nobody is considering richarlison?

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

      Was he any good in the last game?

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Could be a good 2 week punt

    2. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DCL has been better this season.

      1. The Overthinker
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Double up on DCL and richarlison?

        1. Mile Plankton
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Overkill

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Was considering until I saw his points history

    4. jia you
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm on him for a two GW punt

  29. FPL ElasticO
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Who should you bench?

    A. Martinez vs SOU
    B. Johnstone vs FUL

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’m playing A. Won’t be playing Johnstone until I see some improvement in west brom defending

    2. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I don’t do fixtures for GKs - would play A every week

    3. Hitman MHK
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I've got the same dilemma. Probably better to play safe with A, even if option B can turn out to a scrappy 1-0 affair and bag you a CS. Begs the question when you play Johnstone but in these times he'll have to do for backup.

  30. Clintymints
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Gundog or Salah cap?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Going Salah since I like to pick low scoring captains.

      1. Clintymints
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Me too

        Gundog it is 😆

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Gundo
