    Apparently some Aston Villa players and insiders have all taken Grealish out of their FPL teams, suggesting Grealish is injured.

    1. ‘Tis the Season

      3 years, 1 month ago

      Target definitely has gotten rid - and he only did it a couple of hours ago so obviously late breaking

      Haven’t seen any other Villa players

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

    Lowton, Rashford, Jesus -> Konsa, Salah, Kane

    For a hit?

    So is it not good I still have WC, BB and TC intact. Why are people saying WC should have been played already?

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

      They are in denial.

    2. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Well it would have been better to play it before this deadline so you could have loaded up on double gameweek players for 26, allowing you to play another chip like bench boost or triple captain

      1. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        But I played it after Christmas so what do I know!

      2. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Oh I see. Well, I guess I'll have to play it this week and not BB

      3. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        This. I’ll have a full squad of DGW players after 1ft this week and I’ll probably play my TC on Kane.

        It’s worked out perfectly for that strategy.

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

      Should have played it last week so you can BB next week.

      1. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        But I didn't know the fixtures last week

    4. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I don’t really know what’s going on tbh. I have a 26 team with 10DGW, 2FT, 2.5 ITB and also have WC TC left so I think I’m in an ok position

    5. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Everyone thinks the strategy they use is the best one. That's about it really.

  4. R.C
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Oh my! Grealish might be injured

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

      As dramatic as Oh My Goal! 😛

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

    Um, so if I am a noob and still have my TC, BB and WC? What should I do?

    1. Third Eye Vision
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Look at the fixtures and work out a strategy. Use a fixture ticker.

      It’s not that hard to do.

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

    Oh dear Saints no double in 26.

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

      But they have one in 27

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

    I thought we established Grealish was injured a few hours ago?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It was all rumours with no major source back then.

      When his teammates/staff are transferring him out of their team, that almost confirms he's going to be missing our really.

  8. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ings -> DCL + Bamford -> Watkins leaves me 14 DGW on BB for a -4 looks good right?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’m looking at Fernandes/Bamford/Antonio to Barnes/Watkins/Kane -8 BB..

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Looks ok as long as your not worried about Bruno

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Slightly but he has city in 27 and no blank.. I can get him back for 30

    2. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Calvert has lovely fixtures

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

    `is it a good call to WC now? Still, 0 chips used for me

    1. Third Eye Vision
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It depends on your team.

      Lots to consider with all your chips intact.

      Surely, only you can decide.

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

      Same position. Might Free Hit. Well set up for doubles after GW26 and GW29. Wildcard after that for me.

  10. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So, was Ben Crellin right on all of his fixtures predictions, and he just got screwed on timing of the announcement?

    1. tbos83
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Basically, yes

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

    Has to be a Grealish injury sadly - https://mobile.twitter.com/insider_fpl/status/1362841388795244556

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

      Was just going to post this, seems so

    2. Sun Jihai

      That site is so good

      Yep looks like it alright.

  12. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What PL players are doing by doing transfers with insider knowledge is no better or worse than Rockstar and co were doing....

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It's a free game lol.

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

        Not all FF games are

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          That's true.

          Honestly to win anything decent you have to keep it up all season. Too much chance in it for 1 player in your team to make much difference.

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

            My point is more that there are plenty more in the know than just Rockstar. They just keep a lid on it

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

      Perks of the job.

  13. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Son,Kane or KDB TC? Thanks..

    1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      At this point KdB is pretty much unproven in FPL.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Son all the way home

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    El Ghazi DGW26 (TC)

    1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bold.

  15. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any TC shouts for 26?

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane the obvious

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      See above.

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

      Bruno for me

    4. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'll stick Salah in there.

    5. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane, Bruno, Salah.

      1. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        All good shouts (obviously). I like Kane’s fixtures more than I like his ankles though.

        1. Pipermaru
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I mean, these 3 were my top (and only) candidates even before season started, maybe Auba but he's not his former self so far (and no doubles obviously).

  16. waltzingmatildas
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So if not using wc, it's spurs and villa we need to focus on right?

  17. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I have to say I'm quite buzzing 🙂

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Me too, looking at rate my team makes me realise I'm looking OK until 31 WC!

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Waguan in 31? Cos similarly I feel I can get through 26 with a -4

        1. waltzingmatildas
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Just seems to be a few fixture changes

  18. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Clinical finisher Patrick Bamford would never let us down as a captaincy option in a DGW.

    ... right?

    1. el polako
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Great pick, went Raphina myself just for the buzz of the differential.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I was just being silly. Both are good options. I have loved Raph for the last 10 GWs 🙂

  19. el polako
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Still go all my chips intact, not to bothered about next week.

  20. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I'm not liking the double week fixtures at all in terms of the TC chip. In terms of the premium players, only City have 2 favourable fixtures but the rotation risk closes the door on City players for TC. Bruno, Salah and Kane all have 1 unfavourable fixture with Spurs playing 2 decent defences.

    1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      What more are you waiting for? Nobody will play Southampton twice in a DGW.

    2. Rodgers's CHARACTER
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Totatly agree the only man I trust with TC is Bruno and he has bad fixtures , will wait for the DGW that FA Cup semi final will cause

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

        May do the same. I really need to get the TC out of the way though as I have the BB as well. There are normally DGW's at the end of the season

        1. Rodgers's CHARACTER
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I only have TC and WC

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Chelsea could low key smash vs dodgy Utd & pool defences

  21. SADIO SANÉ
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    left Watkins out of WC cos of Grealish news, but that double is pretty nice...wonder how much it will affect him/them

  22. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on Periera for the double? Fixtures not bad!

    1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I've managed to keep him from when I got him in 21. Kept for these 3 GWs which have even turned into a DGW. He's been good against lesser opponents.

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

      I have him as a differential. My concern is his stats have been poor since coming back though, only 0.07 xGI in the last 3 games.

  23. MoSalalalalalalalalah
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    10 DGW26 players but no Kane 🙁

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

      Do I force him in?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes

    2. GROBARI
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same problem

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

    Luckily Grealish > Barnes is a simple move. Even save .7M in the process.

  25. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Grealish confirmed injured. Targett sold him along with 3 other AVL's FC members.

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

    180% Bamford top 10k, higher than I expected

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      As I say below, games getting pointless

  27. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So little picks in this game now. Brining in Ings was totally pointless. Both my main rivals did and my other main rival did also and captained him. Just hoping he flops nows so totally pointless

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

    Surely it would benefit Leicester seeing Grealish was transferred out in FPL by half their team so they know he’s not playing.

  29. Vazza
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Happy Friday!

    How to improve the team below -

    —————Martinez————
    ———Robbo Dias Stones————
    Salah Bruno Son Grealish Gundo
    ————Kane Watkins————
    Bench: Forster, Lowton, Struijk, Brewster

      Poor planning 😛

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
