    On a WC and no Wolves for me. Not convinced and still bad memories of triple Wolves against West Ham early last season.

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years

      Overthinking

    4. Ser Davos
      • 8 Years

  2. HD7

    High hopes for this week. On paper, should be high scoring.

    Good luck everyone

  6. Arteta

    2 years, 6 months ago

    Lukaku (c) gang, where y'all?!

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

      Went for CR7 instead

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

      Aubameyang(C)
      Lukaku(VC)

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

        😳

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

          Kane in my front 3 too so it was a tough call this week.

      2. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That could actually be inspired

      3. Wakanda
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        i believe auba himself is differential enough already

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Haven't got him, but think he would be my first choice as captain this week.

    4. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Here here

    5. Shark Team
      • 6 Years

      Welcome back to the Bridge

  7. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    No going back now.

  8. Drexl Spivey
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    If Cavani were starting ahead of Ronaldo today, Bruno would win the captaincy poll.

    Really does just come down to pens, imo.

  9. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    My bets:
    Jota 1 goal
    Salah blank
    Bruno 1 goal 1 assist
    Greenwood 1 goal
    Kane 1 goal
    Ronaldo 1 goal from the bench
    Lukaku brace ( oh captain my captain)

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Would love this! Greenwood Ronaldo & Lukaku(c)

      Without Salah this GW, a blank would work wonders!

      1. Shark Team
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I have Jota Salah and Lukaku(c) from the above

  10. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Ahhh. The deadline. Noooooo!

  11. Walter White (WW)
    • 2 Years

    Siuuuuuuuuy

    1. Walter White (WW)
      • 2 Years

      Siuuuuuuuuuu

  12. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Locked in! WC played, good luck all!!

    Sanchez
    Trent | Shaw | Alonso
    Bruno (C) | Greenwood | Jota | Torres | Sarr
    Kane | Antonio

    Steele | Livramento | Williams | Scarlett

    And PANTS DOWN!!

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

      No Ronaldo or Lukaku on WC season over mate

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I wanted to put in Ronny, but have this sneaky feeling Kane will punish at Palace, easy swap if it goes tits up

    2. The Pesci challenge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      All the best

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years

        Thanks, you too

    3. Dannyb
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Or Salah?

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not for now, kept Bruno on WC given United fixture

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

    Can't wait to see what the average hit was 🙂

  14. BobbyV

    • 4 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

  17. Muchentuchel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    no Kaku no Salah, Bruno C it is.

  18. Red Red Robins
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone else on a WC who took a 1 week punt on Saka? 🙁

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

    • 8 Years

    Let the Ronaldo(C) mayhem unfold.

  23. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Last minute change from Sa + Ayling to Sanchez + Samedo. Samedo 1st sub if there's a no-show from Torres.

    Good luck all!

  24. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Did Ings Bruno > Ronaldo Torres (-4) at the end ... does not feel right 🙁

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I resisted that move let’s see who does better 🙂

      1. Eh, just one more thing ...
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yes I resisted too … with so many doing it I do have the fear a little. When that team sheet comes out at 2pm … dear god this place could explode.

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      The upside is high, but you could have taken a -4 to swap two certain starters for 2 subs. Could go either way.

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

    Couldn't find a way to sensibly cram Lukaku in. Hopefully he doesn't run riot until GW7!

    Sanchez
    TAA, Shaw, White
    Salah, Greenwood, Jota, Gray
    Ronaldo (c), DCL, Antonio

    (Steele, Coady, Livramento, Mendy)

    Good luck all!

  26. Fabreghastly

    Polarising GW this one

    Good luck everyone

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

      Makes the game better and arguably this forum

  27. OverTinker
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    season over - changed the captaincy to Ronaldo
    can't believe this 🙁

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

      He will start and there will be goals. Good choice.

  28. Coolboy9191
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Arsenal will absolutely smash Norwich tonite. They have their players back and fans behind them. It's gonna be a walk in the park. White & Odegaard in and Auba (C) for me.

    1. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      3-1

    2. Dannyb
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      It's Arsenal......

    3. Gunneryank
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I admire your faith. I hope you're right, as a fan.

  29. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Well. That’s that then. Good luck everyone. No getting away from it … it’s all about CR7 …. As a non-owner I really, really, really hope all the talk at 5pm is how he got a nice round of applause when he came off the bench for his 1 point cameo. I fearfully think I know better than that though.

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

      yes he will come off 1 minute before full time after scoring the hattrick

    Yet another week passes without us knowing our FFS H2H opponents or indeed what league we are in. This competition is so exciting and not even an explanation. For the third time this week can we have an update, please !!!!!!

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

      Agree. Have spent hours trying to find my team.
