Injured Cavani misses out as Solskjaer opts for Martial over Greenwood in attack

Having been leapfrogged by Leicester City earlier in the day, Manchester United will attempt to go back to second in the Premier League table at Old Trafford this evening.

A win over visitors Newcastle United will do just that and keep league leaders Manchester City within ten points’ reach, following a win for Pep Guardiola’s troops in the late-afternoon kick-off.

The last of four Premier League matches to take place on Sunday gets underway at 19:00 GMT.

Daniel James (£6.2m) and Nemanja Matic (£4.7m) are brought into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s starting XI tonight.

Both of the United manager’s changes from Gameweek 25 are enforced, with Edinson Cavani (£7.9m) and Scott McTominay (£4.9m) missing through injury.

Mason Greenwood (£7.0m) is again only among the substitutes, with Anthony Martial (£8.7m) preferred up front.

Steve Bruce has made just the one change to the Newcastle side that lost at Chelsea last Monday as Joelinton (£5.7m) replaces Dwight Gayle (£5.9m) in attack.

Bruno Fernandes (£11.6m) is the second-most-popular captaincy pick of Double Gameweek 25 overall and within the top 10k, trailing Patrick Bamford (£6.9m) in both instances.

Selected by the vast majority of the top 10,000, Fernandes’ effective ownership is, once again, in excess of 100% – so any return means a small red arrow for those who own the Portuguese midfielder but haven’t captained him.

LINE-UPS

Newcastle United XI: Darlow, Krafth, Lascelles, Clark, Lewis, Willock, Hayden, Shelvey, Joelinton, Almiron, Saint-Maximin.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Fred, James, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 25 SO FAR…

Ilkay Gundogan (£6.1m) made a swift return from injury at the Emirates this afternoon but couldn’t add to his season’s goal tally of 11.

The German started and finished the game in his now customary ‘number eight’ role but he, and City as a collective, never really clicked in an attacking sense in north London.

Not that Pep Guardiola’s side really needed to get out of second gear, with Arsenal failing to capitalise on some threatening positions in the final third and mustering only one shot on target in the entire game.

This was City’s 15th clean sheet of the season and their 13th in the last 16 Gameweeks.

Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) made his first start on his return from injury as a ‘false nine’ and provided some typically incisive through-balls, while the advanced Joao Cancelo (£6.1m) again saw plenty of penalty-box action and wasted a glorious chance to double City’s lead when toe-poking wide from 10 yards.

Raheem Sterling (£11.6m) was the visitors’ match-winner, nodding home Riyad Mahrez‘s (£8.1m) second-minute cross for his 13th attacking return in his last 14 league starts.

    A) DCL Lookman and Aina -8
    B) DCL Periera (wba) Phillips -8
    C) DCL Burn -4 (play Raph)
    D) Foden Aina -4 (play Bam)

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      On B or C atm

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DCL and perhaps Periera are good picks, not sure its worth -8 though.

    3. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C

      Don't like A or B at all honestly.

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Moves seem to cancel themselves out at -8 don’t they

        1. Hulk Smash
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yep. I like DCL and Pereira but for a -8 I feel like you'd do better not making the moves (depending who you have currently of course).

    4. Arfaish
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C

    5. Igz08

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

      C looks easily the best.

  2. Well you know, Triffic
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    .Wildcard draft (still have FH), let me know your thoughts:

    McCarthy

    Cancelo Pereira Targett

    Salah Bruno Son Gundo Barnes

    Kane DCL

    Subs: Fabri, Lowton, Dunne, Brewster

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Look pretty good

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

      is McCarthy a typo?

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        haha, low team value, and Saints have decent fixtures. Covering Villa with Targett.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’d prefer another City player in their. Maybe Dias.

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        It'd have to be for Pereira. Do you think Diaz will play all the games?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I’m fairly sure he will but understand your trepidation. They are just juggernauts though.

    4. JamTart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Was the Pereira sub today just fatigue? Never watched but if he's OOP then good pick.

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I think he's being eased back still after injury. Also looking at Castagne but his hamstrings are made of jelly.

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

    Is it worth taking a -8 to get a bench boost of Johnstone, El Mohamady, Dallas, Raphina?

    Or should I save the bench boost for later date offer I wildcard.

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not for me

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

        Martinez (£4m)
        Cancelo, Stones, Mitchell (Dallas, Justin)
        Salah, Son, Sterling, Bruno, (Raphinha)
        DCL, Bamford (Antonio)

        The other choice is to do Sterling, Antonio > Gundo, Kane and have 10 double gameweekers?

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah that one

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nah. Negates the purpose of BB

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

      -8 is not a problem. It's the players you mentioned. They might average 3 points each.

  4. DangerFC
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Madison or barnes to accompany vardy?

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barnes

    2. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not until we hear about JMs injury

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        But Barnes

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

        Is that coz you’re thinking Maddison our will affect Barnes and Vardy output?

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yes, significantly imo

          1. Stranger Mings
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Hopefully we get to hear about Maddison next day or so

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

            I was thinking the same. It’d still be hard to ignore Barnes though, especially for a straight swap with Grealish if he doesn’t play next GW

            1. The Suspended One
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Yeah, he’s probably still the best replacement

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

      Barnes for sure

    4. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barney

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barnes.

    6. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Barnes

    7. DangerFC

      Cheers men that's the response I required!!

    8. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barnes

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

    Bottomed.

    Plan was to keep Leeds and bring in Villa/Spurs to dead end GW29.

    With no free hit it feels like I've either got to keep to the plan (ignoring possible Greliash injury and Spurs poor form) or risk any gains next week being lost through lack of players in 29. What are the FH-less doing?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Spurs will bounce back. Villa is a slight concern but we don;t know enough about the injury.

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

        Yeah, thinking that Spurs have still got to be a sound choice with the fixtures

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Dead-ending in GW 29 with 3 Leeds, 2 Villa, and likely 1 each from Spurs, West Ham and Brighton.

  6. Gazza2000
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Digne or Pereira?

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

      Leicester fixtures look nicer in the medium term, so Pereira

      1. Gazza2000
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Could be a DGW28 though for Everton

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Digne.

    3. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Pereira

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

    Really struggling with deciding which transfers to make for GW26 and the BB. Anguissa out is a given, but for who? Got 5.8 in the bank and two FTs.

    Martínez
    Cancelo - Dias - Digne - Mee
    Gündogan - Raphinha - Fernandes - Salah
    DCL - Watkins
    (Pope - Bamford - Dallas - Anguissa)

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barnes

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

        Yes, Varnes is definitely a player to consider, but I also wonder if I need any Spurs coverage? No easy way of getting Kane though, so it will have to be Son most likely.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          We hang on in quiet desperation to see the likes of Salah and Son return to their earlier form, but it just never comes. Meanwhile we ignore the players screaming at us.

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

            Indeed, that's often the case. I could do Anguissa to Barnes, Salah downgrade to someone cheaper and Watkins/Bamford to Kane for a -4, but it feels a bit risky.

            Alternative is Anguissa to Barnes and just roll the second transfer.

  8. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Grealish and Bamford to Barnes and DCL for -4?

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

      Yeah looks good

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        Thanks.

    2. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If Grealish is injured, then very good moves. If not, still looks worth it.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Even if fit I’ll probably sell as I benched him this week without knowing the injury.

    3. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good imo

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Thanks alchi

      Btw went to bed after asking about your sister's career yesterday, so didn't reply. She's a very good actress. Must be proud 🙂

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes I am very very proud. My favourite thing is going to see her in plays as I get to hang out with the cast afterwards. 🙂

          Ha! I can see that. My ex was a theatre director (just small stuff), but she practically lived in the theatre. It's a lovely place to be.

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah I used to love it too. Did a lot of stand up comedy when I was younger. Liked it but was brutal.

    5. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yeah

      1. Rupert The Horse

      B

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Certainly wouldn’t remove Son for a hit so B

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

      Of the two, B. But that's the opposite of my thoughts this week (thinking of losing Watkins instead of Ings to get Kane)

    4. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Have you any cash Raphinha to Barnes?

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

        0.3 short of Ings/Raph to Kane/Barnes.

        1. g40steve
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Always the way!
          Are you playing TC, was all set on Kane but now reconsidering?

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

            Not sure yet tbh. Today has put me a little.

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

    I'm a big fan of Cancelo and have owned him for a lot of this season. His returns are becoming really disappointing now though. He's on 2 assists despite playing 1703 minutes. Lamptey hasn't been seen for two months and has 3. The likes of Joel Matip, Ben Davies and some bloke at WBA called Furlong all have 2 assists to their name.

    Still keeping him but wouldn't mind another double digit game out of him soon!

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

      Yeah he's frustrating to own. But yeah you can't get rid. He has a really high floor because of City's insane defense.

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

        Definitely holding him. I'd rather watch City games owning him than not owning.

      2. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Sold him on WC, benched Stones and Gundog this week.

        It was not a lot of fun today and I feel very fortunate not to have been punished

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

      nearly had one today, although you could argue he didn't only because he can't shoot

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

        I jumped out of my seat thinking finally, a big haul. Couldn't believe he missed.

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

          I couldn't either, he did pretty much create it himself though so I'll let him off 😀

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

            To be fair he did create it by kicking someone in the face.

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

      Missed a sitter today (9 point goal). He passes the eye test but so frustrating, just got to hold as he’ll haul at some point.

    4. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Oh man he was so so close today. Must be tearing your hair out.

  11. MMN
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    1 FT 2.3m. Planning to bench boost. Any thoughts?

    Martinez
    Chilwell*, Stones, Cancelo
    Gundo, Salah, Bruno, Barnes
    DCL, Watkins, Bamford*
    Areola, Mee, Dallas*, Raphina*

  12. Igz08
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    So team is:

    Emi (pope)
    Digne Cancelo Stones (dallas cresswell)
    Bruno Salah Gund Barnes (raph)
    Kane Watkins Bamford

    Only thing I'm considering is Watkins -> DCL (-4). Feel my rival will bring DCL in and he's Everton's talisman anyway, but it does rid me of a 29 player.

    thoughts?

  13. DickFranDyke
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Raphina, Grealish and Bamford
    For
    Barnes,DCL & Gundogan
    -8. Worth it? FH in 29

  14. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years

    WC Team for 26. No chips left so putting a few 29 players in too.

    I quite like this but appreciate constructive feedback. Thanks

      Can't really rely on Struijk to play in 29. But otherwise it's very good.

          Debutizing for injuries to Llorente and Phillips. Both are expected to be fit in the next week or so and then he's out of the team.

          Pereira I think is too much of a luxury. He's really expensive for someone that has no attacking returns so far and isn't trusted to play all games (because he's just back from injury).

            thanks good feedback

    Wow. It's a sunday and before a double gameweek and there are no significant price changes today probably. It means that I can go to sleep and relax instead of thinking whether I should wildcard. I feel so happy.

      Let's hope FPL towers doesn't throw a phantom rise in there somewhere. I can't take any changes on Kane, Pope or Ings.

    Salah to KDB a ridiculous thought?

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

      Really isn't now.

    2. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't. Maybe for the second doubles.

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

        Yeah I’m thinking second doubles too. Too many headaches this week and he’s still rusty

    3. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes imo. Salah has been in good form.

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

      not ridiculous

    5. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      With CL games will he play both? I doubt.

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

      KDB was awful today, really rusty. I’d see how he looks in champions league first

      1. CROWLEY NOT CRAWLEY
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        He had a number of key passes in the fist half and was always involved in pushing the ball forward. Don't mistake Arsenal's push on City in the last 15 min of the first half as a KDB fail. City as a team looked bad right there but they cleaned up for second half and KDB was out only 15 min in to the second half.

        Agree with you on still not buying yet, but he was not awful.

    7. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Salah (c) locked in here for GW26.

  17. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    For this next week:

    A) Kane, Son and Bamford (-4)
    B) Kane, Barnes and Bamford
    C) Sterling, Barnes, Watkins

    Obvs Bamford is just playing once.

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

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

        That's my instinct.

  18. Old Bull
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno or Kane to TC please guys?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane

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

      I’d go go Bruno based on form. Kane 2 blanks in a row and Burnley can definitely defend.

  19. Netters2018
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    DCL rise tonight do we think?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No

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

      better bloody not, doesn't look like it anyway

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

      Shouldn't do at his current delta but it wouldn't surprise me.

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

      77.2 on fplstatistics at the moment. Doesn't look like it at the moment.

    5. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Prob not with WC effect

  20. adidasOriginals
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What was KDB like today?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Some good passes but not his energetic self.

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

      He was ok. Looked like a player coming back from an injury. Didn't see anything to make me think he has to come back in for 26 though. I'm going to reassess for 27.

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

      Better than Bruno. Way better. But still nil points vs haul.

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

        He’s honestly been a pain to own

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

        Talking bout KDB

    4. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Just had it on in the corner. He seemed a little rusty for him, but the run out will have done him some good. Obviously still very classy.

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

      Atrocious. A number of wild shots and heavy touches though he did an exquisite pass to sterling who should have buried it.

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

    No FH. Thoughts on my Budget WC
    0.4 ITB

    Martinez steer
    Dias Dallas digne soyuncu white
    Kdb Bruno Barnes lookman gundo
    Kane Watkins DCL

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You will have alot of money on the bench each week.

    2. Il Capitano
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe go Fabri instead of Steer, you might want that third Villa spot come 29

    3. Old Bull
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Think I’d prefer two city defence and either of the midfield. Otherwise, Lookman to Raphina. Fulham have some tough games coming up.

  22. onceuponatyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I'm sat here looking how to cram KDB in my team...

    ...and I honestly wonder if I should get Ederson.
    He's gonna play 90 every week, even with Europe. His points rival most City, at a cheap price (albeit high for a keeper).

    I genuinely think Pep's gonna give him a pen now he's walking the league too. Just for kicks.

    Talk me out of this guys...

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      You don;t need KDB imo.

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

        Probably right, especially coming back from injury, with Europe too, and all their options.

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

      I'm pretty convinced he will take a pen in the last few games, not based on much but can definitely see if happening

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

        It reaks of Pep dunnit.

  23. jammie26
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno TC next week, who's with me?

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

      Nope. I just can't believe United will get this jammy week in week out . . it's not possible. And he really hasn't been playing well at all.

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

      Mmmm, it's between Bruno and DCL for me.

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I might

  24. Danstoke82
    • 9 Years

    Hi all these moves to play BB this week?

    Raphinha + Coufal > Barnes + 4.5 def (Aina? - plays 29 also)

    Yay or Nay?

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

  25. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What’s the best chip strategy for this team?
    Have WC BB and FH left

    Pope
    Cancelo Dias Shaw
    Salah Bruno Son Gundogan Barnes
    Bamford Ings

    Meslier Antonio Coufal Holding

    Was thinking Coufal Holding Antonio out this week for a -8 and play BB....

  26. Oooo Matron
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Mee, Raphina & Bamford to Holgate, Barnes & DCL for - 8?

    Current team:
    Martinez
    Dias Cancelo Mee
    Raphina Fernandes Sterling Salah Son
    Bamford Watkins

    Subs: Button, Dawson, Dallas, Brewster

  27. Life_Ban
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry for being a spoon fed casual, but seriously think we need an updated article on what chips to use for navigating the doubles and blanks ahead now we have clarity on some fixtures.

    Feed Me!

  28. mezza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Davinson Sanchez anyone?

    Scored a brace on the cup and those fixtures scream clean sheets:

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not nailed at all

  29. marcos11
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Which of these moves are worthwhile? Looking to make 2/3 moves for a bb next week.

    a) Bamford > Watkins
    b) Ings > DCL
    c) Struijk > El Mohamady
    d) Raphinha > Pereira

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A and B

  30. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years

    Why does Rashford get points every time Im getting ready to sell him. Gonna blank the dgw

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He is far better fpl asset as a striker
