Scout Notes

Mahrez and Jesus emerging as Man City’s key form assets

Man City 4-1 Wolves

  • Goals: Riyad Mahrez (£8.1m), Gabriel Jesus x2 (£9.2m) | Conor Coady (£4.8m)
  • Own goals: Leander Dendoncker (£4.6m)
  • Assists: Mahrez, Ilkay Gundogan (£6.2m) | Joao Moutinho (£5.2m)
  • Bonus points: Jesus x3, Mahrez x2, Coady x1, Moutinho x1

MAHVELLOUS

Riyad Mahrez (£8.1m) is quietly emerging as a form Manchester City asset after his involvement in their Double Gameweek 26 meeting with Wolves.

In a game that Pep Guardiola rotated several key players once again, it was the Algerian who extended his recent run of scoring Fantasy Premier League points.

He provided the assist for a first-half Leander Dendoncker (£4.6m) own goal, adding his fourth attacking return in as many matches.

And in the closing stages, he pounced on a Nelson Semedo (£5.2m) tackle to fire beyond Rui Patrício (£5.3m) into the bottom corner – his fifth attacking return during the aforementioned timeframe.

Unsurprisingly, that is more than any other Manchester City asset over the same period, which has seen Mahrez put together four successive starts.

GIFT OF THE GAB

Gabriel Jesus‘ (£9.2m) late show ensured Fantasy managers could not afford to overlook him ahead of Double Gameweek 27.

After snatching at most of his chances against Wolves, the Brazilian added two goals after the 80th minute to cement his status as another key form asset for Manchester City.

Ilkay Gundogan (£6.2m) is now the only member of Guardiola’s squad to register more attacking returns than the Brazilian since Gameweek 21.

Jesus has contributed four goals and two assists during that time.

Crucially, the forward was rested in both the Arsenal game in Gameweek 25 and the West Ham trip in Double Gameweek 26, his two substitute appearances in those matches suggesting he could be in line for two starts and significant pitch-time during Double Gameweek 27.

STERLING EFFORT

Raheem Sterling (£11.6m) was an unfortunate man in Double Gameweek 26.

After missing the first of Manchester City’s two matches in the round, he was agonisingly close to a big haul in the second.

Guardiola’s formation helped the England international get in some dangerous areas with João Cancelo‘s (£6.2m) left-back role allowing him to peel away from his left-hand station in the front-three and drift into central areas.

In the 73rd minute, Sterling got on the end of a Mahrez cross and backheeled a decent effort just wide of the left-hand post.

And three minutes later, he cut inside from the left and curled a shot just around the right-hand post, shaving it on the way past.

And late-on, he was tackled by Semedo before Mahrez thundered City’s third goal past Patrício.

Sterling owners may also have experienced some frustration with Jesus, who had several opportunities to square to him during the match, often opting to shoot from wide angles instead.

CRACKING THE COAD

While there will be plenty of focus on Manchester City’s defensive assets for Double Gameweek 27, it is worth noting they failed to keep a clean sheet in either Double Gameweek 26 outing.

Conceding to West Ham and Wolves, it was the first time Guardiola’s men had been breached in back-to-back games since November.

There was, of course, a random element to Wolves’ Tuesday-night strike, Conor Coady (£4.8m) finding the net for the first time since April 2018.

Meanwhile, Manchester City restricted Nuno Espirito Santo’s men to one shot on target the entire game.

Those looking to invest at this end of the pitch in Double Gameweek 27 can also take some comfort in Guardiola’s team selection on Tuesday.

John Stones (£5.2m) earned a second benching in his last four matches, perhaps suggesting he stands a good chance of featuring from the beginning against Manchester United and Southampton.

Ruben Dias (£6.1m) has started each of the last four while Aymeric Laporte (£6.0m) has now played 90 minutes in three of the last five.

Manchester City XI (4-3-3): Ederson; Cancelo, Laporte, Dias, Walker; B Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne; Sterling, Jesus, Mahrez.

Wolves XI (3-5-2): Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Hoever; Jonny (F Silva 55′), Neves (Otasowie 90′), Moutinho, Dendoncker, Semedo; Neto, A Traoré.

    Martinez (Forster)
    Cancelo, Shaw, Dallas, Lowton, Strujik
    Salah, Bruno, Gundo, Sterling, Raphina
    DCL, Watkins, Kane

    Would you do Bruno to Son for next week?
    I have no chips left.

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Too early

      1. Kay317
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        I wouldn't do it until day before next game week. Or you mean leave it until nearer the blank week?

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Too early to determine priorities, they both still play.

          I won’t be selling Bruno myself

          1. Kay317
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 26 days ago

            Any other obvious moves you can see? Feel a bit stuck

    2. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I would suggest hold your transfers for now.

      Just out of interest, are you going to play Forster or Martinez next gameweek?

      1. Kay317
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Tempted to take a punt on Forster. If he plays the double he's got a good chance of a clean sheet and some save points. If he doesn't play it doesn't matter.

        1. Vazza
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          I’m playing Forster as he should be nailed for a few games including the game against Sheffield.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Don’t know yet. Honestly the question is a little pointless. If Bruno bangs and Son blanks you’ll have to rethink.

      1. Kay317
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Not sure that will change my thinking. Son has better fixtures and doesn't blank in 29. Can't see another way unless I ditch sterling but planning to switch him to kdb soon.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Then if your thinking won’t change you already have the answer.

    4. Kim Jong Kün
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I usually make moves pretty early and this is a move I am probably making this week.. but even I’m waiting til after Thursday’s games. The change is going to free up so much that the off chance of rise/fall isn’t important to me and making sure son doesn’t get hurt is.

  2. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Shaw to Stones worth a -4 or just play Konsa v Wolves?

    1. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Play Konsa.

    2. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Any advice for above?

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      When considering the hit, just account for Stones playing one game

    4. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Play Shaw.

  3. Hart-ake
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Foden a tempter having not started the last two?

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I’d say he’s sure to play United and CL

      1. Hart-ake
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        how about Southampton?

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      No. This just has to stop.

      1. Hart-ake
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        ha, what has to stop? Foden talk?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Yes. It’s week after week the same question and the same heartbreak. Let’s have a rethink next season.

  4. Vazza
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Who are the absolute must haves for BGW29?

    Son
    Kane
    Who else?

    1. 3 A
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Antonio

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      None

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Saka, Tierney, Auba

    4. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      a Leeds attacker

  5. 3 A
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    KDB vs Mahrez.
    Its been a long longggg time...

    When we should start discuss Salah vs Mane again..?. Loll

  6. CroatianHammer

    Sterling's tweet... what a gent

    1. 3 A

      Link?

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Said no matter how hard he tried it just wouldn’t go in and apologised for the lack of FPL points.

        1. 3 A
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Oh. I remember one 'legend' in my country said the same. We call him Lord.. Lord Fakhri.

          Same reason international football fans call Bendtener and Lingard. Hahaha

  7. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Stones to play both in the double?

    1. Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Guaranteed at least one

    2. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      No one knows mate.

      Just keep your three Man City lottery tickets and hope for the best.

      Stones, Dias, Gundo owner here.

  8. Vazza
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    I don’t understand all this Bale hype.

    I have been playing this game for over a decade and am well aware of how good of an FPL asset Bale was in his prime.

    The situation now is different and the fact that Mourinho spent more than half the season to bring him for PL games means that there is something that we are not quite sure about.

    Any thoughts?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Burnley were atrocious, did you see Bale 2nd goal... Even Joelinton would have buried that.. Or is that taking it a bit far??

      1. Vazza
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        It was a good finish but Burnley left too many spaces at the back for Spurs players to run into. So it was a combination of Burnley being bad and Spurs being sensational.

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Yeah got to agree, spurs were clinical.. I like the look of Reguilon, hopefully can stay fit.. I could be tempted

      2. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        A bit far mate, Joelinton would have found a way to miss.

      3. Camino Aleatorio
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        How about Brewdog? Would he have scored?

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Many have been waiting for months to see him get his fitness. His minutes and performances have been improving recently. Folk have kept an eye on his games. He did well last week both in the league and in Europe. Based on this he was brought in for this week by some old pros, one of them even slapping on the triple captain. He then accelerated his already fine form and provided those plucky punters with a monster haul. The next thing to do is monitor his second game of the double. If he does well again he’s a fantastic and more importantly fun option.

      1. Vazza
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Thanks. I think you might be referring to Luke in your comment above. 🙂

    Anything on Martinez from Dean Smith?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Yes. Said he is fit to play.

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years

        Cheers mate

        1. Vazza
          • 3 Years

          More importantly, who are you playing in both games for the upcoming DGW?

          1. Pep Roulette

    Best gameweek to play bench boost?

    1. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I kinda want to play it as soon as possible so that I can rid of the benching headaches.

    2. Bleh
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Considering next week actually. Good fixtures.

      1. Hy liverpool
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Everton vs chelsea is a nasty fixture

  11. Wılly
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Barnes to:

    A. Raphinha
    B. Saka

    1. Esalman

        Triple Leeds?

        1. Esalman
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Zero leeds lol. Raphinha is my first choice.

  12. PogChamp
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    The 10 points from Gundo, Sterling and Cancelo in a DGW, the biggest DGW ever, just about sums up my entire FF history.

    1. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      On paper, that combination screams massive points.

      I’m sure things will improve for you now in the closing stages of the season

      1. PogChamp
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Yeah was expecting more than 10. One step forward two steps back.

      1. Bleh

        Cheers, any idea who it would be against and when it might be announced?

        1. Lord.
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Villa and soon. The risk was that it would clash with Spurs’ Europa League tie (TV wise), but that’s been sorted.

  16. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Anyone who owns Vardy, are you looking to hold till 29 even if he blanks vs Burnley?? He has Sheff U in 28,

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Don’t own but I would.

    2. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Think you hold for the next two.

    3. MrZ
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Hold

  17. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Martinez
    Dias - Stones - Bednarek
    Salah - Bruno - Rashford - Gundogan
    Kane - Bamford - Antonio

    (Pope) (Raphinha - Shaw - Dallas) 1 FT - 0.3 ITB

    I reckon Rashford -> Son is my no-brainer move here? Any other thoughts?
    Cheers!

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      that move looks mighty good to me.

      1. Ibralicious
        • 9 Years

        Thank you sir

  18. waldo666
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Who would you bench here? Leaning to DCL atm.

    A) Bamford

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Tough. Maybe DCL??

    2. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      DCL

    3. Wılly
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I'd say DCL, unfortunately I have to play DCL and Richarlison this week

    Would you do Mee —> Reguilon for free to start preparing for BGW29?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Unfortunate you didn’t do it last week but yes I would.

      Looks good but wait till this DGW is over lad

    3. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      my plan is Shaw > Reguillon. But waiting until Friday.

      1. Vamos Los Celeste
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        i already have Reguillon. My plan is Shaw > Tierney.

    4. dunas_dog

      Yes good move

    5. Wılly
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I'd probably bring in Reguilon closer to the time,
      I almost brought him in on WC but the rotation of fullbacks is a concern at Spurs

      1. Kim Jong Kün
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Spurs fan here. Don’t worry about rotation with Sergio. He’s by far the best option at fullback and makes a big difference. I think he plays unless there’s nothing in the PL to play for (top4/5)

      Hard to know...

  21. Chrisitis

    3.3 Palace
    7.3 City
    11.3 Milan
    14.3 West Ham
    18.3 Milan
    21.3 Leicester

    Bruno wont start them all right?
    Rest in PL or EL?

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I’m honking rest in EL.

        Thinking. Not honking. Stupid autocorrect lol

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years

      West ham looks like the game he might get rested

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        direct rival for top 4?
        feel like he'll play them all. or sit Palace.

      2. Lord.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Didn’t work out the last time Ole tried it.

      3. Marcin the Pole
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Remember what happened the last time he was rested against West Ham.

      4. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years

        Zero chance.

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Probably not, although I thought there was no way he starts against Real Sociedad being 4 to the good yet there he was, admittedly off at half time but thought he would have sat it out tbh.

    4. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I’d love for him to rest against Palace with that schedule

  22. the dom 1

    Who’s everyone thinking of capping GW27??? Going with City assets as they have double or single game weeker. Like Salah Kane ???

    Keen to hear your replies.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Gundo

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      On Gundo atm

    3. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      kane at the moment...maybe gundo...maybe dias
      60/30/10 vibes right now.

    4. Wılly
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Gundogan as he's had a rest but currently on KDB

    5. CroatianHammer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      In for a penny, in for a pound... Sterling.

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        You really expect him to play both games

    6. PogChamp
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Mahrez or Kane.

    7. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Gundo but Kane in my thoughts.

    8. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Son atm.

    9. Rotation's Alter Ego
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Kane currently, but almost inevitable I get lured to a DGWer like Gundo. Just not right otherwise.

    10. Dammit_182
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I’ll ask pep for the lineup vs Southampton and then come back to you....

    11. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Thanks for the replies lads.

      Yep currently on Gundo myself by tempted by Kane or punt on Salah for a leap of faith in my Reds

    12. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I don't think the United game will be fantasy gold - more likely for a defender
      If we knew which players start both games then I'd lean that way, otherwise most likely going Kane instead
      Would consider Dias and Gundo for city

  23. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Cancelo is all fart, no poo

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I was on Dias/Stones double up pretty early, before Cancelo started getting all the hype. It's been wonderful seeing people rave about his potential while the other two have been delivering points regularly. He does look really good on the pitch!

  24. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Barnes and Stones to Mahrez and Rudiger with exact cash?

    1. Marcin the Pole
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Bit knee-jerky? Not mad keen on Mahrez

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Yeah seems a weird move. With Aguero and KDB back now too.

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      No

  25. Hy liverpool
    • 10 Years

    When the last time you watched an actual good game?

    A game like manchester city vs tottenham 4-3 CL game? This season was awesome

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years

      Villa Pool 🙂

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years

      United v Liverpool FA cup was a cracker.

  26. Royal5
    • 12 Years

    Anyone know why Holding didn't play vs Leicester? Rotation? Dropped?

    1. Vamos Los Celeste
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Arteta Roulette.

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        I see. Really need him in GW29 :/

  27. Simon69
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Honestly this City puzzle is wrecking my noggin... Do I bite the bullet and Foden > Gundogan with my FT or possibly go Mahrez? Foden... The juice is not worth the squeeze!

    1FT, 2m in the bank.

    Martinez

    Cancelo, Stones, Mee

    Fernandes, Salah, Foden, Soucek, Raphinha

    Kane, Watkins

    Subs: Pope, DCL, Maguire, Mitchell

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I dunno mate, internal City transfers have the ability to bite so hard, it's almost a case of just stick with what you've got and hope for the best.

      1. Simon69
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        I've had Foden for a while and I've held through entirety of crazy Gundo scoring spree - He at least plays majority of games whereas Phil is and out on the reg. So tough...

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 26 days ago

          Tbf, considering Gundo was rested today, shifting Foden for him does carry less risk for mine than other potential moves.

          1. Simon69
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 26 days ago

            Aye. I'm also thinking worth it as well as a potential captain for the DGW. Thanks mate!

  28. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Only WC left and .5 m in bank. Team good enough to play in week if no injuries next couple of days or use transfer on

    A -Barnes to Lingard or Foden and play ahead of DCL
    B - A plus Shaw to Reguilon and play over Coufal -4
    C -A plus Bruno to Son -4
    D -Play and carry transfer

    Martinez
    Cancelo Coufal Dallas
    Salah Gundogan (c) Bruno Raphinha
    Kane DCL Watkins

    Pope Digne Shaw Barnes*

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Don't mind A.

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        With Lingard.

  29. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 26 days ago

    Would you make any of these transfers this gw? 1ft, 0itb, no FH. BB and WC available.

    A. Bruno > kdb
    B. Mee > dunk
    C. Dcl > Antonio
    D. Both B and C for a hit

    martinez
    Stones Dallas coufal
    salah bruno son gundo raphina
    kane bamford

    forster dcl digne mee

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      I'd say C but then who moves to the bench?

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Raphina.

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Depends if the potential dgw for Everton is announced soon
      I’d be tempted by Bamford to Antonio though you probably want to keep all 29 players
      I’m that case just hold and have 2 freebies for 28 to plan for 29
      Also I would bb30 wc31

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Keeping Bamford mate. Thinking on the same lines for BB and WC. Cheers!

    This is the worst DGW ever
    Sigh 🙁

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years

      It's pretty pox so far, I'm running a red arrow atm and have TC engaged!

      1. FantasyHero
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        I got BB going and got 2 pts other than Martinez.
        But even the starting 11 ducking for me

      2. FantasyHero
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        Actually you also playing BB

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 26 days ago

      Just looking forward to GW31 or so tbh. Everyone has had the same players since Xmas. Mane, Auba, TAA, Chelsea players, all haven’t performed to be good alternate options. The pool of players feels so small at the moment.

      1. FantasyHero
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 26 days ago

        That's fair. Maybe gw 31 onwards things change
