Solskjaer and Bielsa on end-of-season rotation after Gameweek 37 matches

Man United 1-1 Fulham

  • Goals: Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) | Joe Bryan (£4.5m)
  • Assists: Bruno Fernandes (£11.4m) | Bobby De Cordova-Reid (£5.3m)
  • Bonus points: Cavani x3, Bryan x2, Alphonse Areola x1 (£4.5m)

Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) was the top-scoring player as Manchester United drew with Fulham on Tuesday evening.

Over the last six matches, his total of four attacking returns, made up of three goals and one assist, is the joint-most of any colleague.

The Uruguayan international is now level with Mason Greenwood (£7.3m) over the same period. And when the former PSG man has featured from the beginning, he has typically delivered though. His last eight starts have produced five goals and one assist.

Of course, whether or not he can be trusted for a Gameweek 38 trip to Wolves remains to be seen.

Over his last six appearances, Cavani can muster only two starts, although two of his last three goals have come from the substitutes’ bench.

Still, next week’s Europa League final will hang over Manchester United’s preparations for Gameweek 38, and given Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s tendency to manage Cavani’s minutes, he could be a risky option for the final Premier League match of the season.

Marcus Rashford (£9.6m) was the biggest name to miss out on the starting line-up against Fulham, coming on for a struggling Scott McTominay (£4.9m) in the second half.

“Unfortunately, Scott McTominay had to come off and Fred doesn’t look great while he’s walking now. But we’ve got eight days (until the Europa League final).” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Rashford or Greenwood could take Cavani’s place against Wolves on Sunday. Solskjaer did mention on Monday that Anthony Martial (£8.6m) could feature although he was unable to make it in time for the Fulham match.

In light of McTominay’s enforced substitution, Rashford could find himself back on the left-hand side of the attacking midfield again with Paul Pogba (£7.6m) likely having to drop into midfield to cover either one of McTominay or Fred (£5.3m).

Based on Solskjaer’s line-up for the Triple Gameweek 35 visit of Leicester, Bruno Fernandes (£11.4m) is arguably not safe from last-day-of-the-season rotation either, with Juan Mata (£5.8m) earning a start at number 10 against the Foxes.

Fernandes provided four points for his owners in Gameweek 37 after he was awarded the assist for Cavani’s first-half strike.

“Honestly, I don’t know (if I touched it). In the moment, I think I don’t touch the ball. I didn’t see the replay but the referee was saying I touched the ball and that was the point to make for the onside.” – Bruno Fernandes

Elsewhere, not even Manchester United’s goalkeeper is easy to predict for the Wolves game.

Prior to the Tuesday-evening meeting with Fulham, David de Gea (£5.3m) had only started against Leicester between Gameweeks 27 and 36.

And even as the Spaniard coming into the team for Gameweek 37, Solskjaer explained the competition for who would start the Europa League final was ongoing, suggesting Dean Henderson (£5.2m) could feature against Wolves.

“It’s still up for grabs. It will be decided in these last two league games.” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Manchester United XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Shaw, Tuanzebe, Lindelöf, Wan-Bissaka; Fred, McTominay (Rashford 62′); Pogba, B Fernandes, Greenwood (A Diallo 83′); Cavani (van de Beek 87′).

Fulham XI (4-2-2-2): Areola; J Bryan, Ream, Adarabioyo, Lemina; Reed (Andersen 32′), Anguissa; Lookman (Tete 89′), De Cordova-Reid; Cavaleiro, Carvalho (Loftus-Cheek 63′).

Southampton 0-2 Leeds United

  • Goals: Patrick Bamford (£6.5m), Tyler Roberts (£4.6m)
  • Assists: Rodrigo (£5.7m), Bamford
  • Bonus points: Bamford x3, Kika Casilla x2 (£4.1m), Luke Ayling x1 (£4.4m)

Patrick Bamford (£6.5m) allayed any fears of his season petering out as he produced a 12-point haul in Leeds’ 2-0 win over Southampton.

After a peripheral display against Burnley, the mid-priced forward registered a goal and assist in a textbook away-day performance from Marcelo Bielsa’s men, a display that went a long way to dispelling any theories about this side tiring towards the end of a campaign.

“Patrick had a very generous performance with a lot of effort. He has had a season in which he has shone. I’m sure he will be very positive about the campaign that he has had, be what may.” – Marcelo Bielsa

After a first half that consisted mostly of defending, Leeds ventured forth in the second period with Gaetano Berardi (£4.0m) and Pascal Struijk (£4.0m) replacing Kalvin Phillips (£4.9m) and Diego Llorente (£4.4m).

“Berardi is in an excellent state of form. Him coming on was very useful, he didn’t commit errors and he added a lot.” – Marcelo Bielsa

“It was not my influence, it was their profile of the individualities in the second half which changed the game.” – Marcelo Bielsa

Meanwhile, any Bamford owners worried about his place in the team were handed comfort in the form of Mateusz Klich‘s (£5.2m) early leave, which allowed the in-form Rodrigo (£5.7m) to come into the Leeds team without displacing the former Chelsea man, assisting his second-half goal.

The Spain international operated as a number 10 in an attacking-midfield trio including Jack Harrison (£5.5m) and Raphinha (£5.5m), a role he could realistically fulfil against West Bromwich Albion on Sunday.

Tyler Roberts (£4.6m) may have his sights set on getting back into the Leeds team in Gameweek 38 after getting his first Premier League goal at Southampton.

“I was happy he scored, because he had played many games and he hadn’t managed to do it. And the team in the second half looked a lot more like the team it is. And just how we unlevelled the game in the second half, Southampton could have done the same in the first half.” – Marcelo Bielsa

Meanwhile, it would appear Illan Meslier‘s (£4.8m) season is over after Kika Casilla (£4.1m) came into the side against Southampton and looks set to feature on Sunday too.

“It’s a decision I have made. I want Casilla to finish the season in goal.” – Marcelo Bielsa

“(The two goalkeepers) are two professionals of a very high level. And, of course, the year was a lot more difficult for Kiko, but he was very generous and a very good teammate. The fact that Kiko played today and will play on Sunday is a decision that I decided to make concrete.” – Marcelo Bielsa

Finally, Che Adams (£5.7m) had to come off at half-time against Leeds and looks to be a doubt for a Gameweek 38 meeting with West Ham, which could mean a third successive start at centre-forward for Nathan Tella (£4.3m).

“(Adams) has a little bit of a groin problem. He gave us the signal that he could not go on. He was also tired. He played Saturday and Tuesday against two strong teams.” – Ralph Hasenhüttl

Southampton XI (4-4-2): McCarthy; Salisu, Vestergaard, J Stephens, Walker-Peters; Djenepo, Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Walcott (I Diallo 78′); Tella (Redmond 70′), Adams (Ings 46′).

Leeds United XI (3-3-3-1): Casilla; Llorente (Berardi 46′), Cooper, Ayling; Alioski, K Phillips (Struijk 46′), Dallas; Harrison, Rodrigo (Roberts 78′), Raphinha; Bamford.

    In your opinion, what is the best transfer to do with 0.0 itb 🙂 ?

    Guaita - Forster
    TAA-Shaw-Rudiger-Coufal-Dallas
    Salah-Son-Greenwood-Lingard-JWP
    Kane-DCL-Antonio

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      DCL -> Bam

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I'd probably shift DCL for bamford

    3. Salarrivederci
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      If only 1 transfer I would probably do Guaita -> Ramsdale or something silly 😀

    4. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      JWP to Raphinha or DCL to Bamford.

    5. Bavarian
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Thank you all, appreciated

    6. Baron Penguin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I like DCL to Bam

    7. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      greenwood -> Raphina/Harrison

    8. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Wood an alternative to Bam

  2. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Martinez
    TAA Rudiger Coufal
    Salah Greenwood Lingard Raphinha
    Kane DCL Antonio

    (Guaita Digne Shaw Jota*)
    1 FT & 1.7m

    A) DCL ➡️ Bamford
    B) DCL ➡️ Wood
    C) DCL ➡️ Firmino
    D) Jota ➡️ Chelsea Mid
    E) Jota ➡️ Torres

    Will bench one out of DCL/Jota and sell the other. Thoughts?

    1. Baron Penguin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I can see a few goals at Elland Road, A for me. *probably end up 0-0 now

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah I agree I'm a bit worried going in with just 1 Leeds players this week.

    2. Salarrivederci
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I would do:
      Shaw -> Robertson (bench Greenwood)
      Greenwood + Jota -> Mané & ESR (-4) (bench DCL) // is this possible for you?

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Can't afford both those transfers mate.

        1. Salarrivederci
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          No but either Shaw to Robbo OR the other one.

          1. Karan14
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            Yes that's what I meant. I can't afford either of those moves.

            I can do Digne to Robertson and bench DCL, Jota & Shaw.

            1. Salarrivederci
              • 7 Years
              2 years, 10 months ago

              Aight sorry 🙂
              I would bench Greenwood > DCL after making that move.
              Think I fancy Robertson + DCL/Greenwood more than Firmino + Digne/Greenwood

    3. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A from those.

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah I'm leaning towards that. Any returns from Bamford in 38 would mean a big red arrow.

    4. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Prob keep it simple with A

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah I agree.

        Could risk falling behind 9-13 points if I don't get him.

  3. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Current line up:

    Martinez
    TAA - Lowton - Dallas (Castagne - Veltman)
    Salah - Son - Bruno F - Pereira (Jota)
    Kane - Bamford - Antonio

    Have 2 fts - happy enough with frontline, and the defence, aside from Martinez, but not worth a ft i reckon.

    Considering for Bruno
    A) Mane - safer option
    B) Auba - riskier punt with more upside, but will he even start?!

    Then for Jota, and bench Pereira ahead of either
    1) Raphina
    2) Foden (If we get news that he will start)

    Have a feeling Leeds at home will tear WBA apart.

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Mane & Raphinha

    2. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A1

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        This

  4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Mendy
    TAA Dallas Cresswell
    Son Salah Greenwood Raph JWP
    Antonio Kane
    (Martinez Coady DCL Azpi)

    Any advice here? I really have no idea what to do this week. I can see lots of these not featuring (both Mendy and Martinez, Greenwood, Raphinha, Azpi) and I'm not too keen on playing the likes of DCL or Coady but at the same time if I have a heap that don't feature then 2pts or so for are better than none.

    A) DCL > Wood / Bamford
    B) Son / Greenwood > ASM / Trossard / Torres / ???
    C) DCL + Son > Aguero (if fit) + one of above or anyone under 6.9 (-4)
    D) Something else (I'm grasping at straws here)

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A imo

  5. Baron Penguin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Martinez Forster
    TAA Robbo Dallas Veltman Digne
    Son Bruno Raphinha Jota Lingard
    Kane DCL Watkins

    Thinking Bruno, Jota and Watkins to Salah (C), Willock/Harrison and Antonio for -4, bench Digne, Veltman and DCL?

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah I like those moves.

  6. FPL Doctor
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Ings a good punt for last gameweek as a DCL replacement?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      If hes fit, id hold him, city conceded 3 goals last night, final gw normally brings up crazy results.

  7. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Raphinha or Antonio for gw38?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Raphina

    2. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Antonio

  8. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Last FT of the year?

    A) Targett to Dallas
    B) Watkins to Antonio
    C) Martinez to ?
    D) Bruno to Mane

    2.2 in the bank

    DDG
    TAA, Dias, Stones
    Salah, Bruno, Willock, Lingard, Raphina
    Kane, Bamford

    Martinez, Watkins, Holding, Targett

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      D

    2. antis0cial
      • 7 Years

      D

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers! Just A bit nervous for the defence having Dias and Stones. Could also play Holding.

      Or worth A -4 to get Dallas in addition to Mane?

  9. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Hi folks, I have a dilemma.
    I have Kane, Wood and Antonio going into the last round of games, where I'm up against a cup opponent who has Kane, Bamford and (currently) Iheanacho, which will probably switch to Wood.

    I have 1 free transfer, which I'm planning to use on Greenwood to Mane.
    But my opponent having Bamford scares me.

    Is it worth the -4 just to shield myself from Bamford, or hope that effectively Antonio+4 is enough?

    1. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Don't take a hit and immediately handicap yourself!

    For those doing well this season, what were some key factors that helped you achieve a good rank?

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Trusting the stats and sticking with players (unless clearly not performing) good for me

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Have definitely taken less hits than usual and tried to stick to proven form over popular punts. The weeks where I got swayed into a bandwagon I got a red arrow almost every time.

    3. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Having found the right balance between going with the flow / template, and taking educated risks.
      Which are than not big risks actually, but more like first mover advantages.

      To be more precise:
      - Captaincy mainly on the the clear favourites
      - Late transfers once I built TV
      - Not playing chips when everybody was playing them as my team was set up differently (not following the crowd for the sake of it)
      -Getting on Stones, Gundogan, Lingard, Iheanacho, Bale before the majority did
      - Selling them before they regressed (apart from Lingard who I still carry)
      -No knee jerk transfers after I failed at the start of the season (Trossard, Zaha)

    4. LAMELA_AND_CONSUELA
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Always capitan player with expected the biggest EO in upcoming weekend. Do everything what is possible to not be exposed on big hauls from big hiiters if they EO is significantly higher than 100%. Stick with the template. Try to not have more than 3 or 4 differentials, but choose those differentials wisely. Don't be stubborn and correct your mistake quickly.

    5. faver
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Transfer plannig was something that helped me alot. I targetted a single match maybe twice this season at it was obviously a fail. Transferring a player for a period of at least 5 games helped me save a lot of FT's.

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        This. It’s the first time I’ve used a spreadsheet

    6. Gross Blank Point
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      First time I've actually played this game seriously (as in, every week, and thinking about team) and it's down to luck I'd say. Feels like I've made more than a few bad decisions yet my rank is decent.
      Players I didn't have blanking seemed to be more important than my team scoring well.

      Reading BigManBakar preview 😉

    8. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers all. Seems like the tried and true strategies still prevailed.

      I made a mess of the first 10 gws (3x Chelsea attack gws 1-5) and then (3x Man City attack gws 5-10 thinking this season would be similar to previous). Slow starts kill me every year. And triple ups. One year I’ll learn!

    9. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      If Top 15k is 'doing well' then:

      1) Luck (Things like Stones' goals, Dallas' goals, Salah blanking when not owning etc.)
      2) Sticking with players from good teams (Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd) and players from undervalued teams (Leeds, West Ham)
      3) Following xG, xGA, xA etc, but taking that with a pinch of salt. If Salah has high xG I expect he will score as he is a world class player. If Lingard has high xG then he is probably on a hot streak because he ain't that good so get on that hot streak, but be prepared to get off quickly too based on the eye test.
      4) Ignore home and away stats (for this season only)

    10. James H
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Identifying the value picks early (Martinez, Dallas and Soucek) and getting them on WC in GW5.

      Really think getting on those players (read Lundstram in 19/20, Doherty and Jimenez in 18/19, Heaton and Pope as £4.5m GKP at Burnley etc.) is one of the most important factors behind having a good season and is generally undervalued in the community.

      It's why I don't see the appeal in wildcarding before the first international break. Need to get a few Gameweeks' data to have a greater chance of identifying the correct players.

    11. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      The answer is hitting a scoring captain regularly.

      I've played this game enough times. Sometimes finish top 3k , mostly top 10-100k then other times 300k.

      My end of season analysis is always the same...it doesn't matter what your squad looks like, who you pounce on early, what differential you have or how many spreadsheet or matches you study. If you don't hit enough captains you might as well be pissing in the wind.

    Rodrigo a punt for GW38 in place of DCL?

    1. antis0cial
      • 7 Years

      Carries some risk but could be a decent punt, Bielsa may be kind enough to let you know if he is going to start

    Really think I need Mane in last gw, do these moves sound ok, or better options? 2ft and 1.2itb

    Jota Greenwood DCL to Mane ESR Wood (-4) would give the below team

    Areola

    Anyone keeping Nacho vs Spurs? Think he could actually do quite well against them...

    1. Baron Penguin

      2 years, 10 months ago

      If I had him I wouldn't sell him.

      1. leeboy104
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Think he falls under "don't sell don't buy"

        1. Runaway
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          this

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

  17. leeboy104
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Pickford
    Dallas Shaw Trent
    Zaha Salah Lingard Greenwood
    Watkins Kane Bamford

    (Guaita Siggy Konsa Ward)
    1FT 0.7 ITB

    -Quite a lot of players with poor fixtures and concerns about Shaw's minutes.
    -Thinking Watkins to Antonio depending how he performs. Any suggestions?

    1. Il Capitano
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Watkins to Antonio sounds fine, Zaha another candidate to move out (Leeds mid, Chelsea mid)? but may get some joy v Pool defence.

      1. leeboy104
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Was thinking about a Leeds mid as well, Raph could easily have returned yesterday. Might take a -4 given it's the last week.

  18. CapK
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Best Castagne replacement up to 5.7M, have Dallas and TAA

    A) Coufal (Sou)
    B) Rudi (Villa)
    C) Other

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Alioski

    3. Runaway
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A

  19. Matt Sk
    • 12 Years

    United supporters thoughts on de Gea leaving this summer? Just asking because I didn't see any rumours around and bit surprised now with Henderson getting so much time

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not a United supporter, but yeah. can't see Henderson going on loan again and will probably want to be their No. 1 next season. Think it's highly likely DDG might be off in the summer.

      1. leeboy104
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Think he's going, but not sure who can actually afford his wages. People mentioned DDG being given yesterday's game as a farewell.

  20. Il Capitano
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    1 FT 1.4m ITB

    Martinez
    TAA Digne Shaw
    Son Salah Lingard Raphinha
    DCL Kane Bamford

    Fabri - ESR Targett Mitchell

    My knees gave in on Jota > Raphinha 5 minutes before deadline yesterday, so heading into 38 with one FT. Think the best move is probably Targett/Digne to Dallas and accept that I'll probably have a weak autosub for Shaw?

    1. leeboy104
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I'd get Dallas in like you suggested unless something in tonight's matches changes the situation.

      1. Il Capitano
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah seems a pretty obvious transfer, cheers!

  21. Magic Hamster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    I'm almost 40 points behind in my ML... Time to go big.

    Who is the best differential to pick for the final gw...all options on the table.

    I'm thinking

    KDB, Mane, Aubameyang, willock, ASM...

    I'm tempted by kdb and giving him the armband.

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Chelsea boys? Against a porous Villa team. Don't know how motivated KDB, Auba, ASM, Willock, etc would be.

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      You will need 3-4 differentials for that. Mane and Aubameyang can work

    3. Runaway
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I would go Mane and Pulisic

  22. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    For some reason green arrow in last GW gives a feeling of success! 😀

  23. potatoace

    So who's your gw38 punt?

    1. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Seems every man and his dog is punting on Mané who I can't afford, so guess it as to be Willock or Saka. Or Tarkowski even

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Tark? Interesting
        Can't go near him myself. Not after his DGW disaster

        1. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Would be just for fun, if ML lost already before last GW . Or any far out punt , really

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Nothing special just : Alioski, Mane, Harrison, Willock, Iheanacho

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Willock seems the peoples punt

    3. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      James Ward Prowse he looked very unlucky against Leeds the last day. Always a threat at set pieces. Plus West Ham seem to be down in the dumps.

  24. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    The final transfer of the season ...

    Son or Greenwood to go? Don't know the replacement for Greenwood as yet.

    A. Son > Mane, bench Greenwood
    B. Greenwood > ?, bench Son/Nacho

  25. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Just seen, no TAA in the Euros...

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      It's just mental

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Mental if true. He's not been at his best this season, but who's a better choice for that spot?

      On paper, England should be amongst the favourites for the Euros this summer, but Southgate will hold them back.

    3. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      That's surprising to say the least. Who's pencilled in for his place then?

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Well. I guess Kyle, Kieran and Reece will battle it out then?

    4. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      He was not in form defensively for most of the season and England have plenty of other options.
      If I was an England fan I would take it as a good sign of the strength of the England squad,

    5. MrZ
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Too bad, he can be a great defensive winger

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I think there is always a mistake in TAA. And if England want to go far in tournament dropping him makes sense. He could be found out in the knockout stages against top sides.

    6. Salarrivederci
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Would make TAA a very good pick early on next season. Especially if VVD is back

  26. Bobby's Teeth
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Hey legends, somehow I still have my BB - how does this lot look for GW38?

    Martinez Areola
    TAA Rudiger Dallas Coufal Saiss
    Salah Son Greenwood Willock Lingard
    Kane Antonio Rodrigo

    1. Thinking of transferring out Saiss - any suggestions?
    2. Any other transfers that I should be considering?

  27. BlueRaptor
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Mendy, Forster

    TAA, AWB, Dallas, Rudiger, Holding

    Salah, Bruno, Greenwood, Lingard, ESR

    Kane, DCL, Nacho

    1FT, 0.6 ITB. 31K OR and leading ML by 55p. I am very unsure of which players to bench, considering I have 3 ManU players with nothing to play for and a EL final three days later. I have Mané (for Bruno), Willock (for Greenwood), Antonio, Bamford and Wood (for DCL or Nacho) on my watchlist.

    Any pointers mates?
