Dallas at left-back as Bielsa shuffles Leeds pack for trip to Wolves

Stuart Dallas (£5.0m) appears to have returned to the left-back position for Double Gameweek 25.

The Fantasy Premier League defender has recently spent a prolonged period in central midfield but Marcelo Bielsa has reshuffled for Friday’s trip to Wolves.

Tyler Roberts (£4.6m) joins Matheusz Klich (£5.2m) in midfield with Pascal Struijk (£3.9m) in the defensive midfield role vacated by the injured Kalvin Phillips (£4.9m).

Ezgjan Alioski (£4.4m) is the one who misses out as a result of Dallas’ positional change, with Jamie Shackleton (£4.8m) at right-back and Liam Cooper (£4.3m) paired with Luke Ayling (£4.4m) in central defence.

Captained by over 80% over the top 10k for Double Gameweek 25, Patrick Bamford (£6.9m) starts up-front with Raphinha (£5.4m) and Jack Harrison (£5.5m) providing the width.

Wolves are in a 3-4-3 formation for the visit of Leeds, which features Romain Saïss (£4.9m) and Leander Dendoncker (£4.6m) either side of Conor Coady (£4.8m) in the defence.

Jonny (£5.4m) and Nelson Semedo (£5.2m) are the left and right wing-backs respectively while Pedro Neto (£5.7m) and Adama Traoré (£6.0m) provide the width either side of front-man Willian José (£7.0m).

Double Gameweek 25 Line-ups

Wolves XI (3-4-3): Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Moutinho, Neves, Semedo; Neto, W José, A Traoré.

Leeds United XI (4-1-4-1): Meslier; Dallas, Cooper, Ayling, Shackleton; Struijk; Harrison, Roberts, Klich, Raphinha; Bamford.

    Just create one more chance Raph, c'mon lad

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Or assist or score

    Respect to Traore for not celebrating vs former club

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      He never played for Leeds

    Good example of how a double GW can get you carried away. How many would have captained a Leeds player at wolves away in a single? So you just get the single Soton game where they could also easy get beat

    1. Bruce Lee
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not really... 4 pts this game on top of Saints game

      No matter what happens, the choice is right because Bamford plays 180 mins vs just 90

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

        Kane scored more than all other double GW players GW19

        1. Bruce Lee
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Do you understand probability?

          Will Kane now outscore every DGW player ever now?

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

            I’m just thinking wondering which is best two small chances or more one big chance?

        2. Pat Bonner

          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          You’re looking at this in hindsight....captaining a Leeds player made total sense

    2. Sloane426
      • 4 Years

      You donkey

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

        Thanks. Was just trying to consider my view might have been too heavily influenced by the double GW.

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Surely a single player could blank as well. Whole point is you get 2 bites at cherry

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

        I’m just saying it’s two bites at a very small cherry. Or one bite at a large one

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

          So who would you have captained? Bruno? He’s not even played yet

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

            I’m not saying I would have got the captain right, I’m just saying that I myself ruled out a lot of options and just went with the double GW player. Same could be said for Ings (who I own and the only other captain I considered). There is a high chance he only actually gets one good game and good chance

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

              You need to pick who you think will score the most points, sounds obvious but it’s really as simple as that - whether they play 1 or 2 games. Leeds create a lot of chances and have 2 decent fixtures, one which is against the worst defence in the league currently. Personally I think it’s the right decision, everything after that is out of our hands

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

      Lol... Just lol

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

      No rubbish. You play the odds. Leeds players (and Soton) more likely to score well over 2 games than any other player with just one game.

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

        But is it two small chances or one big chance is the point I’m making

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

          I think you are confusing bad outcomes with bad decisions 🙂 (Although if I'd played Meslier, it wouldn't be much consolation)

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

            I think you're confusing remote decisions with a game where anything can happen, any time.

      There was never a guarantee of any return but there was a chance. A full game against Southampton to come so seems very premature this kind of post

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

        Not the point I’m making. see above

        Ouch. Ok, I’ll log off then

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years

          Only joking - you’re not a gobshite Rafa 🙂

    I’d go celibate for a week if Bamford can score here

    Can field 10 DGW players next week with Kane TC + Bamford for a -4 .....Looks like I might hold onto the wildcard.

      Not at all, it makes complete sense

    4. No Professionals

      Every team does it, just because it hurts our fantasy team doesn’t mean they shouldn’t
