    How's this? (-4)

    Pope
    Cancelo / Shaw / Dallas
    Raphinha / Bruno / Salah / Gundogan
    Bamford(c) / Antonio / DCL

    Subs: Martinez / Stones / Saka / Bednarek

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years

      No Son or Kane, no dice

      1. Plagued by indecision
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Oh are they in good form? Hadn't noticed that.

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I would want one of them at all times, regardless of fixtures. Their point totals say it all.

    Anything announced?

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You know what they say, no news is good news.

  3. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Stop posting about new fixture for Arsenal women

  4. umerlfc
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Think I'm going to hold WC and and save BB for later

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      But when? When to BB?

      1. umerlfc
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Just don't know, chaotic to plan in the current situation

    2. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Doing the same

    3. Vjm6891
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same. Maybe wildcard next week once we know the fixtures. Or BB if I have enough doubles

  5. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best from these ?

    1. Shaw for 25 and 26
    2. Dallas for 25 and Tarko for 26

  6. Well you know, Triffic

    2. jdp219
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Is Paul any good at spreadsheets?

  7. Ch0udini

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play two:
    A) DCL
    B) Gundo
    C) Cresswell
    D) Soucek
    E) Stones

    1. alsybach
      • 14 Years

      Gundo and DCL

    2. Tony Moon

    Chances of playing for the following..

    Cancelo
    Gundo
    Cavani
    Antonio

    1. beetlejuice

    WC team GTG?

    Martinez
    Stones • White • Struijk
    Salah • Bruno • Son • Raphinha(C)
    Kane • Ings • Bamford
    (Fabri / Gundogan / Cancelo / El Mohamedy)

    Next week Bamford to Watkins and use TC. Will leave me with a full 11 of DGWers in 26 and 8 already for BGW29. My 3 FT between then can be used to field 11.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Benching Cancelo & playing Stones...

      Any reason why?

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Presumably worried about a Cancelo cameo

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

    Start Cancelo or Stones or both?

    1. Rider on the Storm
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Stones

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

      I’m starting Stones because he’s pretty much guaranteed to start. Cancelo is unlikely to start and I don’t want a 1 pointer

    3. ted mcnure
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Start both and let Pep decide for you

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

    y'all help me do I bench gundogan or dcl??

    1. Rider on the Storm
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would not bench gundo

  12. Rider on the Storm
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What do we know about the next possible dgw?
    I understand MCI should have a dgw26 with WHU and WOL.
    I understand TOT have a high chance of playing in gw29.
    Any other possibilities?

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

      Follow Crelin on twitter

  13. Werner Bremen
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    For GW26 only: (On WC)

    A Son, Watkins, Stones, Raphinha

    B Barnes, Ings, Shaw, Foden
    (Have Kane already)

    1. Redranger
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

  14. Dele
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Gundo > JWP?

    1. Rider on the Storm
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years

    • Woy_is_back
      • 6 Years

      I wouldnt get any Leeds/Southampton defenders, think they concede in both games

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years

        shhhh!

      2. Ha.
        • 8 Years

        Good job that Dallas is a midfielder

    • FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years

      Uh huh, uh huh
      (Jump, jump)

      Whats wrong with pages?

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It's the Twitter posts in the article

    • Saosin
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Everythings a first. Flipped a coin between Bam or Rap. Raphinha (C) it is.

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

        Same here. Feeling confident!

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

          Was tempted by this too, but thinking about it Bamford's got to have a much higher possible ceiling

    • Redranger
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Martinez McCarthy
      Stones Cancelo Dallas Mee Shaw
      Salah Son Bruno Gundo Soucek
      Ings Bam Antonio

      Worth wildcarding this team? Or just do -4 to get Raphina in?

    • Avery
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Play 1:

      A. Dias
      B. Watkins

    • thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Who’s the best cheap DFers if on WC?

      Currently have Targett & Rudiger but I’m not sure about either as have Martinez already and Rudiger has tough fixtures until GW30

      1. mwa1t
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Lowton, White, Dunk, Shaw

      2. Boz
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I’ve gone elmohamedy over Targett. Should start for a few weeks then can swap out

      3. mwa1t
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Just read that Thiago Silva is out too. Rudiger not a good option imo

      4. Hart-ake
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        El Mohamady, Brighton defs.

    • Snapes on a Plane
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Pls help
      Pick one to start?

      1. Snapes on a Plane
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Stones or Mee?

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Im playing both. Cant you bench someone else?

    • Ray In Bruges.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Pope (Walton)
      Cancelo Shaw Stones (Alioski**, Douglas**)
      Grealish Salah Fernandes Son Gundogan
      Bamford Antonio (DCL)

      1.2 ITB, 1FT

      Good to go?

    • Super Silva Haze
      • 10 Years

      How many here hitting the Wildcard button?

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

        Not Mee

      2. Captain_Shirokov
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I have no reason to now

      3. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Already on it. Trust BC

      4. thegaffer82
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Already smashed it.

        No announcement doesn’t mean no DGW’s! I’m BBing in 26 so it’s now or never

      5. djman102
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Already in place.

    • King of Kings.
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Start DCL or Watkin?

      I think DCL could do some damage against LIV

    • Sergeant Slaughter
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking of doing something most would regard as reckless and desperate. Before making my decision, I would like to ask a simple question: how many points do you believe Raphinia will score in his upcoming DGW. Thank you

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        RMT has 7.6

        1. Sergeant Slaughter
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Seems low, but reasonable

      2. Quan MisTaka
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        10

        1. Sergeant Slaughter
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Probably close to the consensus

      3. Sergeant Slaughter
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It would be polite of me to kick it off...so, I’m guessing 14.

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

      Play Cancelo OR Mee?...

    • Quan MisTaka
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Why is Cancelo not likely to start?

      1. Sun Jihai

        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Pep comments about rotating the squad over the next two fixtures:

        Guardiola on leaving John Stones out to partner Aymeric Laporte with Ruben Dias:

        "If you see the schedule we had in November, December, January, we’re in the FA Cup, Carabao Cup, Champions League to the end. And you see the schedule we have at the end of February and especially all March, when Premier League included two more games in that period against Wolves and Southampton we don’t have one week off so everybody is going to play. Today is the decision and against Arsenal we’re going to play new ones."

      2. FPL Pillars
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He’s due a rest as played a lot of Mins and others haven’t

      Pick 1 from what you can expect from Antonio:

      A. Starts
      B. Does not feature
      C. Cameo
