Scoreboard

FPL Gameweek 5 round-up: Saturday goals, assists, bonus and injuries

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) moved to the top of the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) points table with a third double-digit haul in five Gameweeks, scoring and assisting in Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Crystal Palace.

Ivan Toney (£6.3m) also rewarded his patient remaining owners with two attacking returns in Brentford’s 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, while Ismaila Sarr‘s (£6.0m) brace saw him record the day’s joint-highest FPL score – a feat that Matthew Cash (£5.0m) matched in Aston Villa’s 3-0 win over Everton.

Ferran Torres (£7.2m) was an unused substitute as Southampton held Manchester City to a goalless draw, while Arsenal registered back-to-back 1-0 wins thanks to budget midfielder Martin Odegaard‘s (£5.5m) free-kick.

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 from the day’s Gameweek 5 fixtures.

GOALS, ASSISTS, PROJECTED BONUS

INJURIES AND BANS

FPL Gameweek 5 round-up: Saturday goals, assists, bonus and injuries 10

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m) missed Liverpool’s meeting with Crystal Palace through illness but Jurgen Klopp confirmed that the right-back’s ailment wasn’t Covid-related, adding:

“This morning, after breakfast, Trent didn’t feel right. We actually planned to start him but Millie did an incredible job.”

Thiago Alcantara (£5.4m) also picked up a calf problem in the 3-0 victory over the Eagles that Klopp hopes isn’t serious.

Pontus Jansson (£4.6m) and Rico Henry (£4.5m) limped out of Brentford’s win over Wolverhampton Wanderers but Thomas Frank confirmed the former was “fine”:

“[Pontus Jansson] is good, he’s fine, no problem. [Rico Henry] had a minor issue with his ankle plus he was also on a yellow card and he played against Traore.”

Shandon Baptiste (£5.0m), sent off for two bookable offences in the win over Wolves, will serve his one-match ban in the EFL Cup in midweek.

Mikel Arteta said that Kieran Tierney’s (£4.9m) substitution in the victory at Turf Moor was due to cramp:

“He had a problem and he was cramping. The pitch was pretty difficult today. It was long and it was pretty warm to be playing here and some players suffered in the last 10 or 15 minutes.”

Rodrigo (£5.5m) and Oleksandr Zinchenko (£5.3m) both missed out on Manchester City’s clash with Southampton due to previously undeclared injuries, meanwhile.

We knew that Everton were set to be without the sidelined Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.1m) for their Gameweek 5 match but Rafael Benitez was hit by a further three injury blows in the run-up to the trip to Villa, with Jordan Pickford (£5.0m), Richarlison (£7.5m) and Seamus Coleman (£5.0m) all absent.

The Everton boss said:

“With the tackle of Tarkowski, Richarlison was complaining about his knee during the week and he couldn’t do it.

“Pickford has a problem with his shoulder, he couldn’t do it.

“Seamus Coleman. At the end of the training session, he was a little bit tight, he felt his hamstring.”

Leon Bailey (£6.4m) had an eventful 20-minute cameo: he scored and assisted before limping off late on, saying of his injury:

“I think it was from the shot, I think I hit it too hard! I started feeling a little bit stiff in my quad – I don’t think it’s anything too serious.”

Dean Smith also was forced to withdraw Cash and John McGinn (£5.9m), who had a concussion.

FPL TAKEAWAYS

FPL Gameweek 5 round-up: Saturday goals, assists, bonus and injuries 11
  • Brentford’s defence again impressed, with a misfiring Wolves not hitting the target once and mustering only four shots from inside the opposition area. To neatly sum the two sides up: the Bees’ rate of expected goals conceded (xGC) can only be bettered by Manchester City, while Bruno Lage’s troops have the division’s worst shot-to-goal conversion rate.
  • Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola had both sounded warning noises in the run-up to Gameweek 5 about rotation and tiredness, and the pair followed those ominous comments up by making six and five changes respectively from their midweek line-ups. Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) and Ferran Torres (£7.2m) were among the most high-profile benchings, with Klopp pledging more of the same in 2021/22.
  • As was the case in their last top-flight stint, Norwich’s defence looks there for the taking. While the benefit of doubt could be given to the Canaries after a tough Gameweek 1-4 fixture run, they allowed a Watford side who were without a big chance in three matches six such gilt-edged opportunities on Saturday. Four of those openings fell to Sarr alone.
  • After keeping just two clean sheets in 2021 up until the beginning of September, Southampton have recorded back-to-back shut-outs. They didn’t allow Manchester City a single shot on target until the last minute at the Etihad.
  • Two £4.0m goalkeepers made the starting XIs on Saturday: Ben Foster and Asmir Begovic. Pickford’s injury accounted for the latter, while the Athletic reported that Daniel Bachmann (£4.5m) had a knee problem – although he did make the Watford bench.
  • Salah has reached 50 FPL points quicker than in any of his five previous seasons.
  • With Aaron Ramsdale (£4.5m) again between the posts and the back four unchanged, Arsenal recorded a second successive clean sheet – and, as they did last week, didn’t allow a single big chance en route to their shut-out.

FPL OWNERSHIP AND CAPTAINCY – TOP 10K

Salah was hugely backed with the armband among the leading top 10,000 managers this weekend, with the other four main captaincy contenders either yet to play or uninvolved on Saturday.

Just over 5% of the top 10k played their Wildcard in Gameweek 5, with Wolves pair Marcal (£4.6m) and Nelson Semedo (£4.9m) entering the ‘template’ overhauled team along with Leeds duo Patrick Bamford (£8.0m) and Raphinha (£6.5m) plus Demarai Gray (£5.7m).

    So Jimenez should have scored yday with a powerful header. He then took his headgear off after he missed
    Safe to say he’s not scared to head the ball

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I got he feeling that attempted header will do Jimmy the world of good

      He really put his neck into it, it looked like he kind of forgot himself & the injury for a second with the power he got into it

      Hopefully it gives him a bit more belief & he’s actually back now

      I don’t own him, but he’s a legend, would have loved Man Utd to have signed him before the injury

    2. Walter White (WW)
      • 2 Years

      He was basically frustrated. Brentford’s defence really impressed me. Wolves just need to start Hwang Hee Chan ahead of Trincao & probably drop both wing backs if they have better alternatives. They have missed Jonny & Doherty.

      Semedo is piss poor, Marçal equally the same

      1. The Knights Template

        Lage out, Partytime in!

    Raphinha to Sarr?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Nope

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Unless Raphinha is ruled out by Bielsa

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

          This

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If he’s injured and then back again two weeks later!

    3. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Could slaughter the Leeds defence

    4. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No, keep

    5. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No

  3. More Cowbell

    Just watched MOTD. Sarr looked incredible - everywhere, scoring positions, creating changes. Had an unbelievable game.

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

      It was Norwich though 😕

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

        Indeed. Has newcastle and Leeds in his next two fixtures though.

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

      Yes should've had 4-5 goals

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Lol, steady on

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

          Man speaks the truth, he had a lot of really good chances

    3. Carlton P
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      He’s a huge talent. He might only get the next two for me though. He could have had 4 yday

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      He’s an incredible footballer

      Even though it’s his obvious ridiculous pace & strength that first stand out, he is actually an incredibly good finisher, and has a real poacher’s instinct/timing with getting into the box at the right time

      Watch his second half here against Liverpool again - the signs were there in the first half the way he was shrugging off Fabinho, but the two finishes when they came were just sheer class

      Won’t be at Watford much longer

    5. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      He did but Norwich afforded him so much space and time. He won't get that against many other teams.

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

    WK 6 gtg?

    Bench one?

    James vs City
    Tierney vs Spurs

    Sa
    Trent, James, Semedo, Tierney
    Salah, Greenwood, Torres, Gray
    Bamford, Lukaku, Antonio

    4.0, ? Sissoko, Williams,

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Bench Semedo

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        City only scored once in three matches vs Tuchel’s Chelsea last season

      2. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Agree, Semedo

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I’d bench Torres

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Hhhmmm, you could be onto something. Blanked in 4 as well.

        Wouldn't expect him to get anything away at CHE or LFC to be honest.

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

      Ta

    4. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think you could bench Semedo because you've got Sa in goal anyway (incase Wolves keep a clean sheet).

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

    Have 2 FT's and 0.3 itb, what to do next?

    Sa-Steer
    TAA-Shaw-Semedo-White-Livramento
    Salah-Jota-Sarr-Raphinha-Allan
    Ronaldo-Jimenez-Antonio

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

      Have nearly the same team and loosing patience with Jota and Jimenez, but no idea who to sell them for

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

        will keep Jim one more week and assess

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

      Maybe Sa to someone? but who?

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

        Really that's just a waste of a transfer IMO.

    3. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Can do jota to Greenwood.
      I’m losing patience with jota as well.

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

    Tsimikas -> Livramento on a free?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Could do but nothing urgent

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

      Only if 2FTs

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

      Thanks

  7. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Might actually keep Ronaldo vs Everton now and postpone the Lukaku transfer for GW8.

    Soton might not be as easy a fixture we expect it to be for Chelsea. Already stopped Antonio & City from scoring.

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Lots will happen between now and GW7. Not worrying about it yet.

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

      Think Ronaldo will continue ticking regardless of fixtures and not much between him and Lukaku

    3. FPL Emu
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Hehe, I like that you refer to the first as a one player team

    4. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't drop Ronaldo before Everton game, that's for sure

      1. Tasty Jerk
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        agreed.

    5. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Thinking the same, wildcarders game week 7 going to have some tough decisions

      Shaw as well, drop him before facing Everton without dcl?

    6. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I have both Lukaku and Ronaldo. I wouldn't bet against them hauling just about every GW.

      Ronaldo's fixtures GW14 to 27, may just leave cap on him through this period.

    7. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I will use my 2FT to bring in double Chelsea defence for Digne and Shaw. Ronaldo to Lukaku the week after more than likely.

    8. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Same. And let's say if Ronaldo gets a brace today, then you have to keep him for Everton at home.

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

      Yeah same I planned to do wk 7 Ronaldo and Jota to Lukaku and Mount and following week Shaw to James but might switch it around a bit and leave the Lukaku move to gw8

  8. dshv
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Are you guys going to keep antonio like for all season? .. question is i want lukaku and am i have to do Ronaldo to Lukaku? Or get rid of Antonio and bring Lukaku.. because man united will be with not good fixtures.

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

      As long as he is scoring, he stays. Who is 3rd forward?

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

        I am thinking to play 3-5-2 with lukaku ronaldo up top ?

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Nah. Selling for GW10-13.

    3. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Pointless asking about keeping someone for a full season.

      1. Lord of Ings
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Unless it’s salah

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Not even. The last time people kept Salah for the whole season was his 300-point season

        2. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Went 15 games without scoring

        3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Two returns in 15 league games from 27th December to 15th March last season...

  9. Lord of Ings
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Considering firmino still out do we think jota starts vs Brentford? Or origi/minamino might?

    1. Geordie19
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think he does (owner) but let’s see what team Klopp puts out midweek

  10. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez ( Steele)
    Taa James livramento ( semedo white )
    Salah jota Pogba gray (Gilmour)
    Lukaku bamford Antonio

    1ft 0.1 itb
    Save ?

    Plan is Jota and semedo out with 2 ft next week

    Cheers

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah looks good
      Sure about jota starting next week? Could origi start?

      1. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Fake newshound.

      2. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers

  11. More Cowbell

    What are peoples early thoughts about who to transfer in for GW6?

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

      Tempted by bamford > Antonio

    2. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sarr.
      LEE and NEW up next.

    3. Geordie19
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sarr will be mentioned a lot. Gray is another one.

    4. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Unless Raphinha is out I’ll be saving my FT.
      May move him to Sarr if he’s ruled out.

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

      Bamford good fixtures no?

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        No for Bamford from me. Leeds are going to keep on struggling plus their defence is screwed.

    6. ebb2sparky
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Most likely an Everton player given they play Norwich

    7. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ramsdale or Gallagher

  12. Tasty Jerk
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Watching the MOTD highlights getting Toney in on 6.3 for this game week was a good bargain, thinking he will get a fair few this season.

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Well done on getting Toney in this week

    2. Geordie19
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Think he will get goals too but I think they will be spread across the season. Likely to lose him after liverpool game but good budget player

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

      You planning on keeping?

    4. BENOIT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Mbuemo (oop) at 5.5m though?

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

      I’m keeping, good wee third striker, will get the odd goal

  13. Geordie19
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Not the most exciting but should I start Rudiger (MCI) or Toney (LIV)? Thank you

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Toney

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Clearly Rudy

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

      Rudi

    4. NotsoSpursy
      • 7 Years

      Rudi

    5. drughi

      Attacker, always.

    7. dhamphiir

      Rudiger

  14. ameisin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    What are people doing with Torres? I had planned him for my GW7/8 WC but monitoring for now.

    Two tough fixtures coming up and missed out last game, but City looked so toothless without him up front.

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Selling him.

    2. Tasty Jerk
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Same situation, seeing as Man City blanked I think hes worth keeping for at least 1 more GW to reassess.

      1. The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Just one more week, the cargo will come next week for sure! Now everybody clap.

    3. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      Laughing at him and owners. Laughing til my side armour splits.

      1. FOO FIGHTER

      Keeping, patiently waiting for next haul. Wasnt such a bad week as I have bench cover & this game prob didnt help sterling's claim to the forward spot.

        Change name to Mediocrates!

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        He has actually failed to score in 5 of his 6 starts this season including champions league & charity shield

        Chelsea up next should be easier though

          I know fixtures aren't great, dr schadenfreude. But I would want him back after Liverpool. Still seems to be first choice striker & I think his value will only materialise longer term, seems a waste to pick city players for 2-3 weeks only

            Seems a waste to pick City players fullstop.

      Getting rid, Chelsea up next and he ain't getting anything in that game.

      Fair enough - thanks for the feedback!

    Will jota start vs Brentford? Or could origi start?

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

      Probably Jota but clearly not certain

    2. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      League cup line up might be a fair indication....

    3. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Definitely 100% Jota (NB. this is not based on anything).

    How serious is Ayling injury ?

      All injuries are serious. Not a joking matter thank you very much.

    Anyone considering Barnes? If raphinha is out considering Torres—>Barnes possibly.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Or Mount.

    2. TheBiffas

      no chance

    How nailed on is Javier Manquillo?

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

      very much not nailed

      You know what to do.

  20. Lord of Ings

    Considering raphinha is fit
    Would you do Torres—->Raph using FT?

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

      i like it

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      And miss the Torres haul?

      1. Lord of Ings
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Don’t mind missing his 2 point haul

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

      I'm doing that move.

    4. Mozumbus
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'd not do that. Raphinha is not that nailed to make a move. There were rumours around him. In fact Raphinha owners, like myself, already contemplating to move him out, even if many wouldn't execute it at the end of the day.

    Anyone know if ramsdale is now number 1? I have Pickford to replace and ideally would love to downgrade rather than stay at 5.0

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

      seems to be but obviously always a chance Leno gets a run

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

      Cartainly making a case for himself, doubt he gets dropped now.

    3. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 6 months ago

        He is until he messes up, you might think that's the case for every player but Salah for example doesn't get dropped if he doesn't score for a couple of games whereas a couple of mistakes from ramsdale will mean Leno back in straight away

        1. Subzero (-4)
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Suppose so. Don’t want to double up on wolves defence with sa so can’t see who else?

      • The Knights Template
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        You can certainly pickem can't you. What about Karius?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

          Cheap way into Everton defence mate. Hindsight is a wonderful thing 😉

    4. Kodap

      2 years, 6 months ago

      Any help please? I’ve had Traore for 3 weeks and lost my patience with him, already done Traore > Gray, is this a g2g team for next week or would you start Livramento over Marcal?

      Sanchez
      Trent - Rudiger - Marcal
      Salah - Torres - Jota - Gray
      Bamford - Antonio - Cr7

      Bench: Steele - Livramento - Williams - Sissoko

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I wouldn't be too sure marcal even starts after that disasterclass, team is good as it is

        • Chelsea91
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Play Livramento, bench Marcal.

        Sanchez
        Taa shaw Semedo — veltman tsimi
        Salah raphinha benny greenwood
        Bamford Antonio Ronaldo

        A: Save Ft
        B: Raphinha/Benny (if inj) >> Sarr
        C: Something else

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 6 months ago

            B but only if injured otherwise save

          My team for next week is looking ofetty threadbare.

          Sanchez
          Taa Shaw Semedo Livramento
          Salah Jota Raphina Traore
          Cr7 Lukaku

          Steele Sissoko Williams Locadia

          Can I get away with a hold?

          Plan would be to use two FT in 7 to do Jota and Williams to Gallagher and James?

          1. @persecuted_by_mods
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Doesn't look threadbare at all, only risk is raphina really with his minor injury and maybe Jota rotated if Firmino is fit. Hold is fine

            Who is best caption for today’s game on Sky Sports Fantasy?
            Currently on Ronaldo (C)

            A. Ronaldo vs West Ham (Away)
            B. Lukaku vs Spurs (A)

            1. Lord of Ings
              • 8 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              It’s probably Ronnie but have a feeling lukaku is gonna haul vs spurs.

            Torres to Sarr?

            1. The Knights Template
              • 10 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Gooners hsve to stick with Arsenal I'm afraid. Odegaard it is.

            • 12 Years

            Got neither as captain but I'll be very happy if both Lukaku and Ronaldo get a brace today.

            Sanchez
            TAA / Christensen / Coady
            Salah / Jota / Torres / Traore
            Ronaldo / Bamford / Jimenez

            Steele / White / Livra / Allan

            Any ideas what to do with this lot? Triple Wolves disappointed yesterday. Was on the verge of raging out Traore or Torres to Sarr, but that's possibly knee jerk.

            Hold for a week?

            1. The Knights Template
              • 10 Years

              Odegaard for Gooners, nice to see White there. You must have loved getting his points.

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

                I actually got his points off the bench last week too. He's been the perfect bench option for only 4.4 too.
