    Can anyone help me if I should WC or not?

    I have a lot of crap fodder on the bench so I'd need to WC now if I am going to use a bench boost for 26.

    I have 2 free transfers
    Option A: Son, McGoldrick -> Raphinha, Ings; 15 fixtures in GW25; 18 in GW26 (Without bench boost, which would be useless with my current team)
    Option B: Wildcard

    Current Squad
    GK: Johnstone, Walton (doesn't play)
    DEF: Cancelo, Stones, Mee, Holding, Mitchell
    MID: Salah, Fernandes, Sterling, Son, Lookman
    FWD: Bamford, Watkins, McGoldrick

    1. AC/DC AFC

      A

    With Dallas my team's formation is effectively 262 isn't it?

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

      Get Cancelo and go 1-7-2

      1. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        And if the other is Shaw you get 0-8-2. Team will easily score 180 points.

    This worth BB Martinez Grealish Coufal Digne
    Only flag i have is Gundogan

    Please do not embed tweets into the articles FFS, it makes the loading horrendous.

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

      So they've got to write a new article every few hours instead?

  16. 7_Dan_7
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Cancelo or Dias to Shaw? Or neither?

  17. DAZZ

    Lol, them Grealish rumours are hilarious. So if a player doesn’t train he’s instantly injured? Ridiculous, he’s almost ever present, and of all injury’s a ‘shin fracture’ like it isn’t a wind up aimed at his no existing shin pads.

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

      Many accounts reported it though.

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

        Literally 2

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

        ‘Many’ literally seen nothing

      3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

        3 years, 1 month ago

        I can only see 2 but a few more talking about it based on those reports.

        Not sure what to believe

  18. Mattador

    best 6.2m forward. Maja worth a punt this gw?

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I might be taking a punt on him. Ben thinks Jose's comments sign towards Fulham having a double in GW26. So, they might have a double and play in GW29.

  19. Sun Jihai

    Can we all agree to shift comments onto a old article?!

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

      Where's Rupert when you need him?

  20. Siva Mohan

    Cavani >> Ings for FT?

    1. Bushwhacker

    Please pick 1 about what you can expect of Antonio:

    A. Starts
    B. Does not feature
    C. Cameo

  23. thegaffer82

    Anyone reckon Holgate is worth a punt for DGW26? - Everton should have decent double that week, especially if they end up playing West Brom

    1. Jimmy Boy
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      In my wildcard draft at the moment

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

      They’ve failed in all their easy games. Newcastle, Fulham.

  24. Aaron P
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A. Grealish
    B. Stones
    C. Gundogan

    I can only start ONE of these players this week. Who would you go for?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      3 years, 1 month ago

      C

      1. Aaron P
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        KDB is already in my starting line up. Would you still play Gundogan?

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

      Grealish with Gundo first sub

  25. Johnny too hotty
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Really don’t want to take a hit this week but I’m starting Antonio and cavani with not much on bench.

    Do I take the hit and get rid of one

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

      Antonio to Bam/Ings?

  26. Jimmers

    I'm hearing Grealish is going to announce the #FPL fixtures live at 6pm from Gundogan's hospital bedside.

  27. Andy_Social
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    FPL Stats has Antonio on ..... -265

    He can only drop 0.1, right. Will he likely drop 0.3+ over the week?

  28. ExpressoMySonny
