    Is this crazy?
    WC GW7 so:

    Pogba + Ings ->

    1) Torres + Auba (C) -8
    2) Traore + Ronaldo (C) -8

    Torres on a wc a trap?

    1. More Cowbell
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Be prepared for frustration, and make sure you have a strong 1st sub

    2. dwain100
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I am taking a punt on him on my WC. Just have adequate cover on the bench. Easy to convert to Sarr, Traore or Raph

    3. DARE TO BISCAN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Nah. Can soon become Raph, Traore etc, if he enters Pep rotation hell. Even if he doesn't start every game, will still get points

  4. Wakanda
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    torres or mount ?

    1. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Mount this GW

  5. More Cowbell
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Start one:
    a) Ayling (playing Salah)
    b) Livramento (playing Antonio & Benrahma)
    c) Brownhill

    Thanks alot

  6. OBAMA
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    A) son out for a hit? Amartey would play if I don't take him out.

    B) best replacement other than Jota??

    1. Tango74
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Armartey won’t start now as vestergard and evans back

      I have same scenario as u ,

      Armartey to wolves def

      Or son for jota 99%

  7. Netters2018
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Last spot on WC, help please
    A) Sarr
    B) Saka
    C) Troare

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      A

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I’ve gone A as on pens

    3. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      C

    4. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      C for me, stats are amazing. But I’d see why you’d go A for pens.

  8. Raf
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Play Bachman or Sanchez?

    1. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Coin toss. I’m going to that game today and think it could go either way. Clean sheet odds say similar. Maybe Sanchez due to ownership?

      1. Raf
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks bud.

  9. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Least worst option this GW?

    A) Sissoko (WOL)
    B) Allan (BUR)
    C) Livramento (WHU)

    Cheers..

  10. Hog Roast Junkie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    A) Rudiger and Jimi
    B) Tierney and DCL

    Who to be in ur team for long term

    C- Allan

    1. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Flip a coin, all pretty much the same

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers

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

    Ings -> Jiménez (-4) and bench ESR worth it? Would most likely do it next week anyway.

    Would give me this with 1.6 ITB for Toney -> Bamford next GW:
    Raya
    TAA - Shaw - Reguilón
    Salah (C) - Bruno - Traoré - Sarr
    Antonio - Jiménez - Toney

    (Sanchez, ESR, Williams, Amartey)

  13. Westby37
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Well here goes nothing!
    Raya
    Chalobah, Dier, Duffy
    Gray, Salah, Greenwood, Benrahma
    Ronaldo, Lukaku (c), Antonio
    (Beaton, Bissouma, Amartey, Tsimikas)

    Any thoughts - only 0.8 to play with ?

    1. Westby37
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Of course Beaton would be Heaton

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Could easily end up with only Dier playing in def with those picks. I’d change all 5 def

  14. Bounce
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    If Ronaldo scores today it's going to break the internet.

    1. The White Pele
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      when*

    2. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Same applies to if he doesn’t

    3. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Hattrick

  15. Babit1967
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    So glad Torres didn’t go up, with Wilson going down that leaves me exact funds for Wilson and Bruno to Ronaldo and Torres for free tonight

    1. Kellz86
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      My exact transfers in before deadline this week

      1. Babit1967
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Nice mate

  16. Sillet Bang
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Ederson
    Shaw Taa Vvd
    Salah@ Ben Greenwood Torres
    Jesus Antonio Dcl

    Raya Skipp Duffy Liva

    Currently on 13,000 ish rank only doubts is Benrahamararara! Luckily loads of alternatives around that price

  17. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Cap salah or ronaldo?

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ronaldo

    2. Mooster©️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Salah safest pick

    3. Babit1967
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Gotta be Ronaldo

    4. JabbaWookiee
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Be prepared for Ronaldo not to start if you give it to him. Salah more sensible

    5. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ron

    6. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Still undecided. Mo starts for sure...Ronaldo I think is 50/50 he starts.

  18. The White Pele
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    on WC :
    A) Jota, Gray, White
    B) Raphinha, Traore, Tierney

    1. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B

  19. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Tsimikas to Marcal (-4) or just play Veltman this week?

    1. Mooster©️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Play Veltman

  20. Mooster©️
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Which one would you choose:
    Sarr, Gray or Traoré?

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sarr

      1. aardvark22
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I'm thinking Traore

  21. james 101
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Is Robbo back?

    If not are any WCders considering tsimikas?!

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      He is back. Tsimikas isn’t an option now

    2. Mooster©️
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Too big chance of 10 minutes only and 1 point

  22. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I'm sensing White G, Tierney A in 6 hours.

    1. Babit1967
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I’ll take that, Tierney owner

  23. KirkhamWesham
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Am I right with my thoughts, that it'd be silly to take a 4pt hit for Ronaldo, with him likely not playing a full 90mins, when I get him as a free transfer, next gw?

    1. Kellz86
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Can’t see why he wouldn’t get 90 to be honest

      1. KirkhamWesham
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        His manager said that he will "play at some point in the game."

        To me, that sounds like he'll be coming off the bench at some point in the 2nd half.

        1. Hog Roast Junkie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          To me that sounds like he starts but Ole wants to keep opponents guessing

    2. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If it was away to Newcastle then I’d have thought along those lines but homecoming at old Trafford and cavani out makes it seem extremely likely he’ll start

  24. Kellz86
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Did Ings/Bruno to CR7 (c)/Torres but now left with the choice of ESR/Gilmour/Amartey to take the 11th position, play ESR anyway and hope for a start?

  25. Kroos-Control
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Captain:
    A) CR7
    B) Salah
    I know Leeds are quite hard to beat at home against the top teams and with the crowd behind them I’m leaning towards CR7 but whether he starts or not is a big concern

    1. Toonmad
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think everyone who brings him in will captain him which will be 2m plus squads over a quarter of the game. I think salah vs Ron is self selecting for Ron the only alternative I would think of is if you have Bruno fernash h

  26. bozankrkic
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    DCL or Jimmy?

    1. Carcetti
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I've gone DCL but really a coin toss

  27. tristanabc
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Odds of starting this week?

    A) Torres
    B) Raphinha
    C) DCL

    1. Kroos-Control
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Dcl and Raphina are nailed Torres is always a rotational risk

  28. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    G2G or Son to Jota worth a minus 4?

    Sanchez
    Veltman Shaw TAA
    Benrahma Salah Sarr Raphina
    Ronaldo Antonio
    (Livra Ayling Perico)

  29. HollywoodXI
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    WC team GTG?

    Raya
    Trent Shaw Christiansen
    Salah Jota Raphinha Benrahma
    Ronaldo DCL Antonio

    Gunn Duffy Livramento Gilmour

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Yep

  30. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    TAA/DCL or Tierney/Lukaku?
