Scoreboard

FPL Gameweek 3 round-up: Sunday’s goals, assists, bonus and injuries

Son Heung-min (£10.1m) and Mason Greenwood (£7.6m) both scored on Sunday, while Chris Wood (£6.9m) and Patrick Bamford (£7.9m) also found the back of the net to open their 2021/22 accounts.

However, it was a day to forget for those who handed Bruno Fernandes (£12.1m) the armband, as the Portuguese picked up a booking and returned just two Fantasy Premier League (FPL) points at Molineux.

Our usual, more detailed Scout Notes will follow for all of the day’s games but in the meantime, our resurrected Scoreboard series rounds up the key goings-on.

The graphics below are taken from LiveFPL, Ragabolly’s excellent and ever-expanding website, and our own Premium Members Area.

GOALS, ASSISTS, PROJECTED BONUS

KEY FPL TALKING POINTS

  • Son produced his second double-digit haul of the season against Watford, as his first-half free-kick made it three wins from three for Tottenham Hotspur. The South Korean international has now scored 10 goals, supplied seven assists and picked up 20 FPL bonus points in his last 19 home matches.
  • Following their 1-0 win, Spurs are yet to concede a goal this season. However, they have given up 31 shots – only Burnley (42), Arsenal (39) and Leicester City (32) have allowed more.
  • Harry Kane (£12.3m) made his return to Nuno Espirito Santo’s starting XI, but produced just one FPL point as he missed a couple of late openings on his first Premier League appearance of the season.
  • Daniel Bachmann (£4.5m) made seven saves in Gameweek 3, compared to just one across the opening two matches. Moussa Sissoko (£4.5m) also made his Watford debut, and as a result, hands FPL managers another budget midfielder to consider.
  • Wood and Bamford both found the back of the net at Turf Moor, their first goals of 2021/22.
  • Following today’s win, Manchester United are now unbeaten in their last 28 Premier League away matches (W18 D10), which is a new record for the longest unbeaten away run in English Football League history
  • Greenwood’s winner means that he has now scored three goals in as many games this season, and is three FPL points ahead of teammate Fernandes.
  • Paul Pogba (£7.7m) performed in a deeper midfield role at Molinuex today, which meant he only touched the ball once in Wolves’ penalty area and registered a single goal attempt.

INJURY WATCH

Sean Dyche made just one change to his Burnley starting XI, with Ashley Westwood (£5.4m) recovering from a toe injury to replace Jack Cork (£4.5m) in the Clarets engine room.

Diego Llorente (£4.5m) returned from injury for Leeds United, but Junior Firpo (£4.9m) and Mateusz Klich (£5.5m) were both missing with Covid.

For Wolves, Willy Boly (£4.9m) and Daniel Podence (£5.5m) returned as substitutes, while Edinson Cavani (£8.5m) arrived off the bench for Manchester United on 53 minutes, having been granted additional leave time on the back of his Copa America exploits. 

STAT WATCH – GAMEWEEK 3

Following today’s matches, Wolves duo Adama Traoré (£6.0m) and Raúl Jiménez (£7.4m) both rank amongst the top five players for shots, with 12 each, over the opening three rounds.

The pair also feature amongst the division’s top chance creators, which does suggest that they could offer value from Gameweek 4 onwards, when their fixtures ease.

Traoré now trails only Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) for penalty area touches, with 27, a total he shares with Michail Antonio (£7.9m).

    Jesus, United's fixtures after week 7 are horrific!

    Not gonna be much United on WC?

    What is the plan, just Ronaldo?

        Same!

    Stuck at the bottom of the last page-
    WC tempting me- good start but i've historically left the WC too long. GW7 swing isn't too risky as I can do shaw to reece james.

    Thoughts on this? Depends on Ronaldo being 12.5. If more, Torres would get downgraded

    Sanchez (Steele)

    TAA Shaw Dier (Duffy Livramento)

    Salah Jota Torres Benrahma (Gilmour)

    Ronaldo DCL Antonio

      Agreed, just done it too and mine is very very similar

    2. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      And you can do Ronaldo to Lukaku for the swing there too!

      Tempting now

        just locked it in! Here we go

        1. Stupendous
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Thing is, I already own 8 of that starting 11 and your bench v my bench is null anyway.

          I think a hit or two can guide me through the IB and I'll still get loads of these fellas rising in price in the mean time

          WC at the end if needing emergency surgery!

    Rough with the Smooth,Gameweek 3.

    How did your gameweek go?

    Did you get a big red or green arrow? Did your transfers improve your team or make it worse? Did you play a chip, and how did it turn out?
    Did your captain haul or blank?

    You can share your tales of joy or woe here.

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Another fantastic week and a wonderful start for me finally.

      Torres finally hauled (returned!) , so that paid off this time.

      Another green and jumped 150k to 159k

      Happy sitting where I am with a solid squad and no fires anywhere besides Balogun

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Love that Torres pick. Every week I eyed him up as he's such a class player but wasn't brave enough

    2. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Red arrow but I'm not losing hope. Back into FPL after 10 years away. I went with 4-4-2 as my GW1 squad and have regretted it. A GW4 WC may sort me out.

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Played wildcard. Vardy captain with a mil itb for Lukaku was the original plan. Then a half fit Harry Kane at home against a promoted team caught my eye. Do that cost me 22 points which was a bit rough. Starting James for his red over tanganga also rough.

      Smooth was TAA tanganga Dier, Salah, Bamford and Antonio.

      Ended up with 51 points and a team I'm very happy with.

    4. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough...finally brought Benny and promptly broke him for a blank.

      Smooth....Also brought in Son and Regullion for Barnes and Targett for a hit...Paid off gangbusters!

      Hits aren't always a bad thing...netted me an extra 9 pts. after the hit!

    5. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Moved captain from Bruno to Antonio at the last minute. This, of course, will be the most common comment by far.

    6. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      returns from 6 out of my 7 attackers with only Benrahma blanking … patience being rewarded

      Toney, Wilson, Antonio
      Ben, Son C, Gundogan, Salah

      1. Amsterhammer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Toney and gundog are great returns!

    7. lugs
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough
      no real roughs except maybe DCL stealing Richarlison's pen for the second week in a row, i mainly bought Rich as i thought he was on pens + the 0.5 savings of course

      Smooth
      75pts, Antonio(c), Salah, Son, Greenwood, Shaw, Ings all chipping in, also helped by the 0.5 saving from Rich allowing me to do Taylor to Reguilon as my only transfer this week, so at least i was able to directly match DCL's jammy points without owning him for this week 🙂

      1. RedLightning
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        It ws never really Richarlison's penalty.
        It was Richarlison who attempted to steal DCL'c penalty, against his manager's instructions.
        Tough luck on choosing the wrong one though.

        1. lugs
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          i know, i'm just salty about the pens as it was Rich this week + last week, and Son last week too that could have taken pens but didn't, so that's potentially 3 goals + bonus that could have gotten me 20+ extra points which would put me in the top 10k 🙁

    8. Team Bobcat
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Great week and about time. 88pts yepee.

      Only fails were Benrahma trent and martinez not returning.

      OR 500k

    9. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Jumped up to top 20k great start big thanks to everyone on here love the daily insight and responses. Made a Bruno to Son move (c) last minute Friday with Ronaldo coming in for -4 or -8 next.

    10. Bibelnissen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Transferred in Alli and Kane for Salah and Toney in preparations for a wildcard over the international break, which in turn moved the captaincy away from Antonio and onto Kane. 24 points lost on those moves, and a red arrow from 50k to 500k.

    11. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Buendia got me 10 points repaid my patience.
      Benched Salah to play Buendia cost me 10 points.

      1. ktk_interista
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        I did the same so hats off to you. But it didn't cost you anything both its a shame it wasn't rewarded because Salah didn't look like doing anything and got a jammy penalty nonetheless

        1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          It was a good idea though, backing against a large percentage who would not be captaining Salah.
          V's Buendia and his good fixture, who many sold.
          I went from smug to annoyed very quickly!

    12. FPL Hitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth: Greenwood, Ings & Wilson deliver. 71 points this GW. Total 289 points.
      Rough: Playing Amartey over Lowton

    13. West End Exile
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      For once I've actually stuck with my pre-season plan and it's paying off: 247 points and OR of 142K.

      My best start for years and determined to hang on to my WC until at least GW7.

      But I must stop reading all the CR7 comments...

      Good luck everyone 🙂

    14. Hawk
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Green arrow. But lost 20 points coz I sold Gundogan and Buendia for Raph and Benhrama.

    15. jia you
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough as a bag of badgers!
      Wildcarded out Torres, Mane, Toney, Ings...In came Kane Lukaku, James, Raphina, Harrison

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Just realised Jia, after my wildcard I'm without Bruno and Salah. For now, that is.
        Smooth: Thought it was a poor GW, ended up in 71 points, but turned out to be a green arrow and I'm 541 OR.
        Won't last, but with 6.3 itb, I have a lot of options.
        Rough: Might have over-estimated Leeds. One player was probably sufficient.

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Nicely done, yeah Leeds were poor v Burnley but hopefully they'll get going again after the IB...I'd of had a big GW I'd held tight with Torres and Antonio(C)...haven't added up the points difference if I had done but I'm sure it's significant lol

    16. GMBC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth: Antonio captain haul!

      Rough: Another red arrow and not liking the structure of my team anymore. Only one way to go probably after that insane GW 1.

      65 points, OR 5.5K

    17. Ephurion
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth sailing taking a hit for Tsimikas -> Regulion (Amartey/White bench).

    18. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Pretty boring GW with a slight green arrow. Would have been better if Son and Greenwood didn't score, but well, happens. A bit of a headache with what to do with 2FT over the international break now. Only hoping for no further drops in price (I kinda screwed with the initial team in terms of potential price drops)

    19. ZAMUNDA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough: Sold Buendia instead of Barnes to get Benrahma. Well, he scored his first goal and Benrahma blanked.
      Smooth: captaining Wilson and a third green arrow in row

    20. Hiiler
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth: Out of many captain options picked the best one. Antonio

      Rough: Was hoping more from Raphina . (it's not a big rough but still)

    21. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Red arrow.

      Brought in DCL, Raphinha and Benny for a hit.

      Booted: Barnes, Gundog and Toney.

      Lost points as Gundog and Toney scored although I am happy with the transfers made long term.

      Fanteam: up 6k. Captained Son.

    22. Brimble82
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth:
      (C)Antonio - 71pts - 86k Green

      Rough:
      Tfr’d Buendía>Benrahma at a loss of 8pts!

    23. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Big red arrow despite 63 points which was okay. Dropped to 79k.

      Planned on Mahrez to Raphinha but banked the FT. Turned out to be the right decision.

      Antonio haul as captain was nice.

      Need Ronaldo to come in ASAP as it’s getting frustrating not having picked Greenwood over Mahrez at the start.

    24. AllGonePozzo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Very rough. Did Toney Brownhill and Veltman out to Dennis Benrahma and Livramento for net -8 and stupidly kept Mahrez. Captained Bruno over Antonio. 45-4 out of LMS and down over 700k places and only just inside top million. Disaster

    25. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Smooth: Only 3 blanks (Sanchez, Cash + Benrahma), up to 70k with 2FT’s and 3m ITB

      Rough: Changing Reguilon to Cash late on before GW1, mightily frustrating!

    26. RedLightning
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough.
      I have the fifth highest ranking of the twenty managers in the Mods & Cons H2H League, but somehow I've lost all three matches so far - 100-102 v Joe, 82-84 v G Whizz and 66-68 v Grey Head!

    27. Alex_thekid
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Rough :: Took Gundo out 9 points

      Smooth :: Brought in Mason Greenwood 8 points and scored 71 points ♻️ ^^ up to 34k from 62k 259 overall points super happy with the start compared to last season 4.2m at this point finished 33k nearly beating it already ❤️

    28. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Green arrow, 128k.
      1 of 2 transfer paid off, CS from Tsimi >Tanganga. Cheers to the scout cast for that move.
      Transfer 2 of Havertz > Benrahma was frustrating to see Kai score but the extra cash will be useful for Ronny/Rommy

  4. Sanchit
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Would you WC this lot?

    Sanchez
    TAA shaw Tsimi
    Salah Bruno Benrahama Raphinha Greenwood
    Ings Antonio

    Foster Ayling Obafemi 4.0

    1 FT, but want to do the following moves.

    Ings -> DCL
    2 moves for Bruno to Ronaldo
    Get rid of Tsimi to open up 3rd Liverpool slot.
    Change GK.

    Would you WC for this?

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Absolutely not WC no

    2. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Just Ings to DCL

    3. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Absolutely not. Your only issue is Ayling playing Liverpool. Do Ings to DCL (like everyone else) and you will be fine.

    4. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Could do sure. You could for example put Dier, tanganga, livramento, James in.
      Goalkeeper of choice.
      Chase some big upside with Bruno and raphina to jota and Torres.
      And of course Ings to Lukaku or Ronaldo

  5. Pigeon
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Should I do Tsimikas to Livramento or just ride the price drop?

    1. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Depends on how many transfers you have. If you have 2 and were going to do that move any way, do it. If not, you might consider eating the .1. I always find it handy to have 2 FT for the international break. I only have 1 this time.

      I’m going to do Ings to DCL assuming no other fires to put out, but holding it for now.

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        I only have the 1 FT but I have DCL, Ings and Antonio already. My other cheap defenders are White and Ayling lol. What would you do?

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years

      Are you like dead; under that rock you've been hiding under for so long, that the sun will blind you, if you ever indeed you do come out.

      1. Pigeon

        What?

        1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Never mind. just ride the price drop and go and kill grey squirrels so the lovely cute looking red ones can establish themselves again in this green and pleasant land.
          Anything the USA exported to us anyway was death, plague and

                  • 11 Years
                  2 years, 7 months ago

                  Ronaldo, transfer deadline, international break, covid, quarantine, GW4 suspensions imposed by FIFA - take your pick.

                  1. Pigeon

                    Okay fair enough. I understand now lol

      Yeah do it

  6. R.C

    Best 4.5m mid now?

    Still Gilmour?

    1. Hits from the Bong

      Sissoko mcarthur gilmour

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          He got into some pretty attacking areas

    2. Alex_thekid
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      McArthur i like

  7. King Drogba11
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Mahrez to Jota worth a -4 ?

    Assuming Firmino is out for 3-4 weeks.

    1. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Maybe, but I wouldn’t do it just yet. Neither will move in price for a few days (the transfer market dies down a lot during the international break), and you will have time to learn more about Firmino’s injury. If he is out for a spell, might be a decent move.

      1. King Drogba11
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks. Jota could be great option over the next few weeks.

  8. Jdpz
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Cash to Tierney is good move?

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      No he's injury prone. Just get Dier and bank the rest

    2. F4L

      would pick Semedo ahead of Tierney for the time being

  9. Sanchit
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Ings to DCL now before the price rises? Or wait for deadline day just in case of injuries/news?

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      If you cant afford later now

    2. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I’m waiting for a bit. I assume DCLs injury is an “international break” injury, but I’d like to learn a bit more before burning such an important transfer.

    3. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I'm going to wait. Price changes tend to slow down a lot during the IB but if you're on exact funds, probably worth doing.

  10. R.C
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Apart from these three, are there any other 4.0 defenders who start games?

    Livramento
    Duffy
    Williams

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Don’t think so. maybe a Norwich centre back with a funny name? 3 is enough anyway

    2. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, but Livramento is the only one seemingly nailed. Duffy will be competing for time as will Williams.

      1. R.C
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Williams will be competing with who? The other player is shiiite

        1. Utopsis
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Williams had a dodgy debut himself, gave the ball away for the 1st goal

  11. Hits from the Bong
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Is Bamford a better option than a half fit DCL?

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      No. DCL has better stats

    2. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      very 50/50, both really good picks

    3. WHUFCSmith23
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      DCL plays for a team that is set up to play to his strengths and is now on penalties. He is getting close to the E word in my eyes.

  12. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    thoughts on this wc team? Kane is Ronaldo

    Sanchez
    TAA - Semedo - Dier
    Salah - Greenwood - Jota - Torres
    Kane - Jimi - Antonio

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Need decent bench cover with Torres and Jota, Jimi looks off it, Greenwood maybe a dodgy pick when Ronaldo is here

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        yea Mount not Greenwood, or Raph

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Raphina or Benrahma or Gray

  13. F4L
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    On WC, just thinking about what the Lukaku money could do for the rest of the team...

    A - Lukaku, Traore, Semedo
    or
    B - Bamford, Mount, Robertson?

    Leaning towards keeping Lukaku, provides the safety of a great captaincy option

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      B but with DCL

      1. F4L
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        should've mentioned I already have him:

        DDG 4.0
        TAA Cancelo Shaw Digne xxx
        Raphinha Torres Jota Greenwood xxx
        DCL Antonio xxx

        Looking to fill those 3 spots

        1. R.C
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          A then but with Dier

          1. F4L
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            cheers, not too keen on Dier tbh, the sub 5mil defender pool is quite weak this year imo

        2. A Fat Spanish Waiter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Why not dump cancello (or Shaw) for a 4.0 and find a way to get to Salah? Could stick Toney or even Dennis as your third forward, or go 3-5-2 with a benrahma type player.

          1. F4L
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            too many good options this year with premium defence, 8mil forwards and 6-8 mil mids. Just going to rotate according to fixtures, I don't mind bench points. Still think it's possible to get 5 PPG out of all those outfield players by avoiding the inevitable 2 pointers in tough games.

  14. Jdpz
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Is Dennis from Watford good option? Great fixture. Toney to Dennis?

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Dennis was playing winger today, King up front.

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yes. He's looked good in his games and has some decent fixtures coming up.

  15. sozopol
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Benrahma still good value going forward? Looks like he'll rise again tonight from 6.3 to 6.4... or would I be better off looking elsewhere for mid-mid value-- Traore, Jota, Raphinha, Greenwood, etc.

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      looks like West Ham are about to sign Vlasic (a CAM) + EL starting soon. Benrahma will probably still be a decent pick but I'd probably be looking elsewhere.

      1. Hits from the Bong
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Will take Bowen’s place I’d have thought

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Or Fornals.
          Moyes won’t drop Benrahma on the form he’s had

          1. Hits from the Bong
            • 5 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Nah Fornals is an absolute work horse with great quality in the box too, think it will definitely be Bowen, who will be on the bench and a back up to Antonio

            1. Get up ya bum
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 7 months ago

              None of these guys are getting benched

        2. F4L
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          have to wait and see on that. I imagine they'll all just rotate though according to who is the most in form

      2. sozopol
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        good info, thx. Maybe wait and see. Plus the feeling that I've missed the early points and price rises

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Great option. West hams X factor. Best at his price

    2. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      He is class. Off game this week, but I’d hold. Plus, WHU have great fixtures except GW 5.

      1. sozopol
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        I'd def hold if I had him, but I don't, only considering getting him in now or not as I restructure from Salah/Bruno/Son MF

  16. Jdpz
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Best 3 defenders (under 6.2m and not Reguilon, Ayling)? Dias? Digne?

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Dier
      James
      Laporte

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      James, cancelo, Dias, Matip, Dier, tanganga, semedo, Tierney

    3. sozopol
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Alonso? Pereira (but minor injury?)? Dier/Sanchez (but you already have Reg)? Brentford (Jansson/Pinnock) been good so far, can they keep it up?

    4. Hits from the Bong

    6. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Reece when he is back. Shaw.

    7. F4L
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      James/Shaw/Digne. Cancelo would be the best if his minutes were guaranteed.

  17. Jdpz
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Benrahma to Traore? 🙂

    1. have you seen cyan

        Not as unhappy as me. Had Torres for first two games and transferred him out as was so poor, particularly in second game.

          Not entirely true. Torres was being praised for his work rate first two games. Neville was drooling over his work rate gw1 for instance.

      At some point Iheanacho will come back in and rip it up. He is going to be a bargain.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        There's the first sub-4.5 forward. Might see him in a few wildcards cramming in CR7 and Lukaku up too.

        1. Down with this sort of thin…
          • 6 Years

        2. Andy_Social

          Davis. At Villa and currently injured

          1. Andy_Social
            • 11 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Oh wait - DaviEs. Spurs defender. My bad, as you were!

            1. Down with this sort of thin…

              Replied before I saw your reply.
              Good to know about Spurs Davies.
              A Reguilón injury, I'll be in there quicker than Big Sam into Arsenal.

          2. Down with this sort of thin…
            • 6 Years

            Ah right, thanks for that. Strange my end, when I login and go to transfers, he's still listed at 4.5.
            Could be game still updating?
            Or my dial-up internet.

      2. Down with this sort of thin…
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Can't understand why he's not in the team. Could be due to all the CB injuries and they can't play 3-5-2, but he was frighteningly good towards the end of last season.

          • 14 Years

          Rodgers likes the 4231 balance. Plus not enough fit centre halves to play 352 to fit Iheancho in.

      I definitely am, but this is where things start diverging, and some will hit the WC this week. Week 7 could be really big for divergence as well.

        Personally, I will hold WC a bit longer, need more info. GW7 seems nice

        Congrats on a good start!

      Certainly not ever but a much better start than the previous three seasons, that's for sure.

      1. Henryyy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Tell me about it, previous 3 been a horror show at the start!

      Not too surprising the Scoutiverse does well with all the tools at their disposal nowadays. Casuals still do what casuals do, and it's easier than ever to take advantage of that. But also the game data is really parsed down so fine that their are some edges that didn't exist before.

      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yep!

      I find it pretty dull though, heading over to FPL live at the start of the week and only having 2/3 differentials that can truly affect your rank.

      Thankfully there's loads of great options this year, you can still do well by diverging away from the template.

      I am but went slightly different BB gw two keepers rotation after that Schmeichel and Sanchez. Rotation of fixtures for them is lovely.
      Also went no Bruno and got Greenwood gw1 plus had Vardy gw1.Went well so far. Only flops Arsenal - Tierney and ESR. And Barnes Leicester.

    When are we expecting Ronaldo to be available and what are we anticipating the price to be?

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Should be available after the IB and it wouldn't surprise me to see him lob in at 13.

      1. R.C
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        No chance he's 13

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Not saying he will but it wouldn't surprise, definitely a chance imo.

      2. A Fat Spanish Waiter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Most expensive player in the game??? I suppose its possible, but my money is on 12.0. Maybe 12.5

        1. The FPL Units
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Same as Lukaku? They scored similar last season in terms of goal involvements as I understand it.

          1. Scholes Out For Summer
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Lukaku is only 11.5

        2. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          12.5 probably more likely tbf, would be surprised if he comes in under that.

    2. tangtastic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      FPL are awaiting formal confirmation of Ronaldo's signing. Altho Utd made the announcement it was subject to a medical, which was carried out today.

      I think we should find out tomorrow hopefully

    3. elchilangles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I need to be 11.5 or below to get him in without ripping my whole team apart!

  25. The Mastermind
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    What would you do with this team? Used my FT on Barnes > Torres before any more price changes.

    Tempted to WC to get Ronaldo in…

    Sanchez - Foster
    Shaw - Cresswell - Amartey - White - Tsimikas
    Salah - Bruno - Son - Torres - Benrahma
    Antonio - Ings - Obafemi

    Any advice appreciates, cheers

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      hold

      1. The Mastermind
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        What about Tsimi / Ings?

        Also worried about Ronaldo hauling GW4

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          yea those two are issues, Ings could get something maybe

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Bruno & Ings to mid of choice & CR7 or Bruno & Oba to (Gray?) mid of choice & CR7 - get some attacking cover for Torres.

      1. The Mastermind
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Would you make these transfers this GW? Currently 0FT left

        1. The FPL Units
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Prob not but def next GW.

    3. A Fat Spanish Waiter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Have a few pints during the International break. If it looks like you will lose .2 or more, and it looks like DCL is fit, do Ings -> DCL. Eventually, you will move Tsimi or Amartey to Livramento, I would think, but it’s not urgent,

      To be honest, I really like this team. I’ve been thinking about going 3-5-2 and this is a good setup.

      1. The Mastermind
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks mate - I’ll hold off and see what the DCL situation looks like, then potentially I’ll bring him in for a -4

      2. Gunneryank
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Have a few pints then tinker with your squad. Got it. ;D

        1. Down with this sort of thin…
          • 6 Years

          Haha!

      Think Bruno is redundant when Ronaldo hits. Certainly don't think he's worth the money if Ronaldo comes in at 12.5.

  26. FPL_Crisis

    Do you think Mbappe ends up moving to Madrid this window?
    Apparently psg want Richarlison as replacement if he goes

    1. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Just the idea of that sounds absurd. What do PSG offer Everton? 75 million quid? 50 million?

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        From memory Everton paid 50m

    2. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      He scored both PSGs goals last night. That might seal his fate for now.

  27. tc93
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Top 60k, 2FT, 0.1 ITB. Looking for the best way to get DCL in for Toney this week- Son out maybe? and who to replace with?

    Sanchez
    TAA / Veltman / Shaw
    Salah / Bruno / Raphinha / Benhrama / Son
    Antonio / Toney

    Foster, Ayling, Livramento, Perica

    1. Original Sin
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Son ----> Torres and u will have Cash ITB

    2. tangtastic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      I'd get rid of Bruno, post Ronaldo he is overpriced.

      If you downgrade to Traore that gives you enough for DCL and you could also upgrade Perica to Bamford

  28. Esalman
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Would you wildcard this lot?

    Martinez
    White Coufal Shaw Amartey
    Gundogan Dallas Jota Fernandes
    Kane Antonio
    McCarthy Ihenacho Canos Goode

    1. Original Sin
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Yes

    2. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      If you’re confident who to bring in on WC. I feel I need to see more GW’s

    3. Carlton P
      • 8 Years

      Yes

  29. Original Sin

    Who to captain?
    A. Lukaku vs Villa ( H)
    B. Salah vs Leeds (A)
    C. Greenwood vs New ( H)
    D. Antonio vs Sou ( A)
    Currently on Lukaku (C).

      E)/Ronaldo

  30. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 7 months ago

    Are people anticipating Ronaldo players v NEW and therefore bringing him in over IB??

    1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      CR!3

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Huh? Tha ks

        1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Does he play you mean? Or are we gonna see Ronaldo players..and who are they?
          I'm gonna take it you mean does he play instead of Greenwood who is 3 from 3. I reckon he will come on at some stage, fwiw/#

          1. FCSB
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah I’m hoping we find out more during IB and Ole indicates he’s thrown right in

            1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
              • 6 Years
              2 years, 7 months ago

              Even that Narissist will have to blend into the team. Most managers know this and will have him polishing the mirrors in the bathroom before replacing the long term first teamers.

              Innit. Unless of course he is a God that smells like chicken.

            2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
              • 6 Years
              2 years, 7 months ago

              I had to google ....Narcissist.
              love that word, there's a bit of that in me, ...

    2. Andy_Social

      I do think people are jumping the gun over that a bit. Can see him coming on as a sub, disappointing many who captain him.

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I agree if Ronaldo does not score against Newcastle then has to face in form hammers, villa game should be OK. But after that fixtures awful.

        1. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          United were very lucky to keep a clean sheet against Wolves last night. Wolves cut through their Fred/Pogba midfield on the counter with ease. With the ultra-individualist CR7 up top, attacks will break down with greater frequency. He'll get goals, but at the other end I'm questioning if Shaw should stay in my team.

        2. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          It's going to be very interesting when United come up against Top sides. Ole likes to play on the counter in these games, but how the heck do you play counter-attacking with Ronaldo in the side???

          1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah the other lads will have to do the running for Ronaldo.
            Other problem -
            United badly need a defensive mid amazed united do not buy bissouma.

            1. Andy_Social
              • 11 Years
              2 years, 7 months ago

              Right. There's noise about Spurs going for him. I'd have thought United's need is the greater, and he's not that expensive.
