Scoreboard

FPL Gameweek 5 round-up: Sunday’s goals, assists, bonus and injuries

Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.6m) scored again for Manchester United as Said Benrahma (£6.4m) rewarded his owners with his first goal since Gameweek 2.

Neal Maupay (£6.5m) and Danny Welbeck (£6.0m) inspired Brighton and Hove Albion moved up to fourth after a 2-1 win over Leicester City, while Chelsea kept another clean sheet at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Our usual, more detailed Scout Notes will follow for all of today’s games but in the meantime, our long-dormant 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

FPL TAKEAWAYS

  • Since making his second Manchester United debut in Gameweek 4, Cristiano Ronaldo has registered three goals, 13 goal attempts, 12 shots in the box, five big chances and 3.24 expected goals (xG), all league-leading totals. During that time, team-mate Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m) has managed just one attempt in the box, though it did hit the post.
  • Following today’s game, Luke Shaw (£5.5m) ranks 30th amongst all defenders for FPL points with 18. Despite that, his 14 chances created is only bettered by Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m), Jack Grealish (£8.0m) and Raul Jimenez (£7.5m), while his average position (no 23) v West Ham United was as advanced as Mason Greenwood (£7.7m) on the opposite flank.

Manchester United’s average position map v West Ham United in Gameweek 5

  • Man Utd delivered 33 crosses into the box against West Ham, their highest total in a single league game so far this season, with Shaw responsible for 16 of them.
  • Benrahma’s deflected effort for West Ham opened the scoring at the London Stadium, his first goal since Gameweek 2. The Algerian now ranks second amongst all midfielders for FPL points, only behind Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (£12.5m). Next up for the Hammers is a trip to Leeds United.
  • Brighton moved up to fourth in the Premier League table after a 2-1 victory over Leicester City, their fourth win of the season. Budget enabler Shane Duffy (£4.2m) supplied the assist for Maupay’s penalty, and has now provided 27 FPL points across his five starts.
  • It’s now three defeats in five matches for Brendan Rodgers’ Foxes in 2021/22. However, Jamie Vardy (10.4m) continues to produce, with three goals, one assist and five bonus points during that time.
  • It was a quiet afternoon for Spurs duo Harry Kane (£12.2m) and Son Heung-min (£10.0m), as Chelsea restricted them to a combined four shots, with just one arriving in the box.
  • Marcos Alonso (£5.7m) made his fifth consecutive start today, as Ben Chilwell (£5.7m) still waits to play his first minute of Premier League football this season. Today’s assist for the Spaniard – his second attacking return of the campaign – means that he is now the top scoring defender in the game.

INJURIES AND BANS

The best goalkeepers for UEFA Champions League Fantasy

Edouard Mendy (£6.0m) missed out for Chelsea today, with Kepa Arrizabalaga (£4.9m) replacing him in goal.

The Senegalese stopper was involved in a collision towards the end of Chelsea’s 1-0 win over Zenit on Tuesday, which meant he had trouble diving.

“Edou got a huge hit, we tried everything in the last days but he never felt fully comfortable in diving.” – Thomas Tuchel

Yves Bissouma (£4.6m) appeared to pick up a knock at the Amex Stadium. Despite not being taken off initially, he was finally withdrawn after 79 minutes, with Graham Potter providing an update after the match:

“He was desperate to play, the medical department were ok with it. He extended his knee a little bit. As the game starts to go on, the fatigue might be a problem, but he was desperate to go out. It was a decision for the medical department.”

Elsewhere, Son made a surprise return from injury and played the full 90 minutes for Spurs, as did team-mate Eric Dier (£4.6m). 

However, the injuries sustained by Lucas Moura (£6.5m) and Steven Bergwijn (£6.0m) in the Europa Conference League kept them out.

After serving one-match bans in Gameweek 5, Japhet Tanganga (£4.6m) and Michail Antonio (£7.9m) will both now be available for their respective teams next weekend.

    No goal for Man City. Surely Torres has to come on. Trying to talk myself out of selling But he has tough fixtures next 2, what are owners doing?

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Sold him for Sarr last night. I should have known better playing Pep Roulette.

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

      Keeping him, he had his rest. He will come good once again

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

      They're all crying and kicking themselves for falling into the trap.

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

      yep brought him in on wc, fell into the trap
      no moves until after midweek games are played
      Sarr feels like chasing points, can't underestimate Norwich fixture.
      I'm planning to hold to have 2 freebies in gw7 as I'd want a city attacked from gw8 and don't want to have to get him back if other fires

  2. MountainBeach

    Raph or Benny for next week?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years

      Leeds are going to be smashed to pieces.

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

        how do you figure

      2. Amartey Partey

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

    What do you say, lads?

    Meslier (4.0)
    TAA / Shaw / Marçal (Livramento, Omobamidele)
    Salah / Jota / Torres / Raphinha / Benrahma
    Bamford / Ronaldo (Obafemi)

    A. Omobamidele to Duffy
    B. Torres/Jota to Gray/Gallagher/Zaha
    C. Shaw to Alonso
    D. Hold FT

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

      I'd hold tbh

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

        Thank you, sir, means a lot

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

          no worries. Thoughts on mine? Just under yours haha

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

            I'd definitely hold, mate. Great team. Cheers!

  4. MountainBeach
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez
    Shaw TAA Coady
    Salah Greenwood Sarr Benny
    Ronaldo Antonio Bamford

    Foster, White, Allan, Williams.

    0.9 ITB. What's the move?

    I think it's fine for next week. Might just do Williams to Livramento as a better bench option.

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

    Sorry Bottomed last page
    Best replacement for Traoré with 7M or less if u have
    Allan Raphina Salah Sarr
    A- Gray
    B- Benrahma
    C- other one

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

      A

  6. FC Hakkebøf
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Really want sine City assets on my gw7/gw8 wildcard. Just not sure who to go for. Grealish seems to be nailed. Jesus as well. The 0-0 draw makes me question if Guardiola will bring Torres / Mahrez in play. Foden could also be deployed on a wing

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

      Dias

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Too much uncertainty of starts there outside of Ederson and De Bruyne though Grealish looks fairly nailed on. I just sold him because his PL attacking returns are below what I expected.

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

      Grealish I’d say

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

      Go for the one that's nailed.

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

      Dias and Cancelo.

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

    Raphinha or benrahma for the next 3? (Already have Bamford and no Antonio)

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

      Benrahma in ur case u playing 3-5-2 with CR7 & Kaku ?

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

        343 with Bamford kaku cr7.

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

          Sorry my bad so benrahma

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

      Benrahma

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

    Is Benrahma a Hold or Sell ?

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

      Hold

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

      Second highest scorer in the game up against a depleted Leeds defence. I’ll be honest, I’m not sure how that’s even a question!

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

        its definitely a valid Q, for the reasons below...

        hopefully he is rested midweek in EFL cup

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

          Hmm, well I’d definitely wait until he loses his place before transferring him out in that case

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

      Sold him for Sarr. Not sure if he is nailed with Vlasic and the return of Antonio.
      If Vlasic takes Bowen or Fornals spot, then Benrahma could feature

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

    James over Rudiger on wc worked out well.

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

      tell me about it...on the same week TAA misses out.
      Are you brave enough to make the switch to Rudiger or just hope for the best?
      If I don't fold I'll probably keep Torres and reassess with 2 freebies in gw7

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

        Guess midweek line ups will make that decision easier.

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

          hopefully Callum Odoi plays and James doesn't

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If it helps I went from Chilwell on WC last week to James this week with my ft, while having Antonio, Llorente and Matip all miss out

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

        That does make me feel better. Thanks mate

  10. northernmuppet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    So my cunning Lukaku/ Ronaldo plan with no Salah has backfired.. I know.. what was I thinking.. need a -8 to get him back in..

    1) Torres / Jota / Antonio -> Salah / Grey / Toney

    2) Torres / Jota / Rap -> Salah / Grey / sissoko

    In short - lose Antonio or Rap.. horrible decision. team as is below in case I’m missing a more obvious option.. want to keep Ron / Luk / TAA

    Sanchez (4.0 Fodder)
    TAA/ Shaw/ White / Semedo/ Livramento
    Raphinha/Jota/Berahama/Gilmore/Torres
    Luk/Ron/Antonio

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

      Sell Ronaldo or Lukaku.

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

        This

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

      2

    3. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Think you can go without Salah for the next two. Then sell Ronaldo to fund him with two FT

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

        One of those moves where I may regret it.. Salah killing me but you may be right to hold the course…

    4. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      a bad plan is better than no plan
      and changing plans in this game is even worse.

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

    For Next GW only who is better ?
    A- Gray & Vardy
    B- Traroré & Lukaku

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

      A

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

      A

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

      Gray has Norwich so probably A and a good differential if that's what you want

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

        Yes I want Vardy Too for this GW instead of Lukaku

    I feel like Jota is stinking out my team. Time to get rid?

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

      Inhale for another week.

      1. The FPL Units

        I could hold my breathe

        1. The Knights Template

          Just tell everyone you didn't inhale.

    2. waldo666

      Debating the same.

    4. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      missed an open goal this week. i expect he will play next week and then bobby will be needed to run like a mental against city

  13. MountainBeach
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez
    Shaw TAA Coady
    Salah Greenwood Sarr Benny
    Ronaldo Antonio Bamford

    Foster, White, Allan, Williams.

    0.9 ITB. What's the move?

    I think it's fine for next week. Might just do Williams to Livramento as a better bench option. Or hold the FT?

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

      A solid hold there

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

        should I not take advantage of Livramento's rice rise tonight?

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

      don't see the value in spending a transfer on defender who may/may not be in your lineup.
      in the scheme of things Livra is easily attainable even at 4.2m
      Swap your worst attacking player or just roll transfer imo

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

    Suggestions here folks? 1ft, 1.4m itb.

    Sanchez
    Taa James cancelo
    Salah Jota Sarr doucoure Gallagher
    Ronaldo Bamford

    Foster semedo Omo Scarlett

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

      nothing obvious imo
      fixtures look ok think 2ft in gw7 is more valuable

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

        Yea makes sense, cheers bud

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

      Bamford > Antonio

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

        Could do that, cheers

  15. LucasMoregametime
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pickford (Foster)
    TAA, Marcal, Alonso (White, Williams)
    Salah, Jota, Raph, Odegaard (Bissouma)
    Bamford, Jiminez, Ronaldo
    0.5 in bank

    Trade pickford or hold FT

  16. FlockofSeagulls
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Hello friends!

    I've made some terrible decisions the past 2 game weeks and I'm thinking about potentially making another one lol.

    If you were a little Kra-Kra like me and were contemplating a Chelsea defensive double or even triple up, which defenders do you think are the most nailed and would you choose?

    Any suggestions can be listed from most nailed to least nailed.

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Would go Rudiger + Alonso

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

        Thanks.

        I don't know much about Chelsea but is Alonso not under threat from Chillwell or James once they're up to speed?

        1. jonnybhoy
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Could be, think there will be the occassional game where Alonso and Rudiger are rotated but use 4m defenders for that. Both seem Tuchels favourites. Think going forward with their fixtures a double up with them seems most logical. I did it last year with Stones and Dias and its one of the things that pushes you well on. Do the double up. Triple too much.

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

            Thanks for the feedback. 😉

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

          Looks like the only nailed CHE defender will be Rudiger. Chilwell will start getting minutes sooner or later.

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

            So Chillwell rotates with Alonso right?

            Who does James threaten for their place? Azpi??

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

              And CHO

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

                Sorry but I don't understand what CHO means?

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

                  Callum Hudson Odoi

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

                    Oh thanks. I didn't even realise he'd been playing lol.

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

                  Alonso and Chilwell on the left

                  James, Azpi and CHO on the right

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

                    Oh I see.

                    Thanks for the information and advice. Much appreciated. Plenty to ponder. 🙂

    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez Steele
    TAA Shaw Semedo Ayling Tsimikas
    Salah Torres Raphinha Benrahma Brownhill
    Ronaldo Antonio Ings
    The plan was to sell Ings finally, for Bamford but Torres worry with 2 hard fixtures and rotation of course. Maybe some punty transfer this week and pull the WC trigger next week. What do you think? Chill and save also possible

    1. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

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

      I'd keep for now.

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

      Barnes or Mount

  19. Lingard’s Shin Guards
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    This looking like a save this week? Will need 2ft's next week to get in lukaku/chelsea def and maybe Jota too for a mini wc

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Livramento
    Salah Jota Raph Sarr
    CR7 Antonio Bamford

    1. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      jota out for a mini wc*

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Lukaku for Ronaldo to keep team balance.

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

    Does it make sense to transfer Ayling to Livramento so that I can afford to do Jimenez to Antonio?

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

      My back five would then be

      TAA Liv Duffy Williams White

      It’s so cheap, it just feels wrong

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Who are your other two forwards?

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

        Pinko and Ronaldo

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

          That’s a weird autocorrect…Pukki and Ronaldo

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

            Pukki to Dennis?

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

              Already have Sarr and I think Pukki will outscore Dennis

  21. jonnybhoy

    2 years, 6 months ago

    Finding the thought of getting rid of Ronaldo for Lukaku painful for GW7

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

      Keeping both is easy for hits or WC. But having both will probably impact your team's balance and longterm points potential because both have high ownership getting higher.

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

      Don't do it, I'm not.

      1. jonnybhoy
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        What will your team look like post GW7?

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

          Very similar to what it looks like now, I would suggest.

    3. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      United's fixtures are terrible for a while

      1. jonnybhoy
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Ronaldo is the biggest big game player there is. That's what puts me off.

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

      Looking at United's fixture is painful, but we all know Ronaldo can score on any team. Chelsea really looking good GW7 up...

  22. Andriy Shevchenko is Back
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Hi All!
    Sanchez Steele
    TAA Shaw Livra Ayling Amartey
    Salah Torres Jota Greenwood Brownhill
    CR7 Antonio Toney
    2FTs, 0.4 ITB

    a) Amartey, Toney -> Rudiger, Dennis now - will be priced out if Rudi rises
    b) Wait and reassess after cup games. High risk of being priced out

    Thank you!

    Mini-League Leaders, Gameweek 5.

    This is a report on the leaders of various Fantasy Football Scout FPL mini-leagues and community competitions after Gameweek 5.

    ** FFSCOUT OPEN FPL LEAGUE

    The Fantasy Football Scout mini-league ( https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/68048/standings/c, league code gsnskx) is open to all. Ryan Quinn leads for a second week, but has slipped one place to 22nd overall.

    ** FFSCOUT COMMUNITY MEMBERS LEAGUE

    The Fantasy Football Scout Members mini-league (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/361/standings/c) is also open to all, and the league code is visible in the widget on the FFS Home Page when signed in, but only those with a registered FFS account (paid or free) will be eligible for prizes. Ryan has taken the lead in this one too.

    ** HEAD-TO-HEAD LEAGUES

    I don’t know whether the problems with a few teams who should have been promoted from last season’s League 9 to this season’s League 8 in MIR’s FFS Head-to-Head Leagues have been fixed yet, but I am sure they soon will be.
    The Head-to-Head Leagues option in the drop-down menu under the Community tab at the top of the FFS Home Page explains how to find your League and Division as well as your Fixtures and Results for each Gameweek. It also contains tables of each Division’s Total Points and Match Scores for the current Gameweek, and the Total Points tables can also be found at the bottom of the right hand column on the FFS Home Page, but they have not yet been updated with the results of matches in Gameweek 5.

    Dylan Penhallurick still leads League 1, with 13 points.
    Filip Suchta, Ahmed Shamin and Neale Rigg (Skonto Rigga) in League 3 are all on the maximum 15 points after five straight wins, as also are many others in Leagues 4 to 9.

    ** LAST MAN STANDING

    See http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2021/07/24/the-last-man-standing-competition-2021-2022/ for details of TorresMagic’s Last Man Standing competition (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/26234/standings/c, league code 6dcode).

    The highest scorer in Gameweek 5 after deducting hit points was Mrs Thirlaway with 96.
    The safety score was 47, with 178 teams removed and 2,517 going through to Gameweek 6. It remains open till Gameweek 22, but new entrants must pass all the previous safety scores (Home - torresmagiclms.simplesite.com) to qualify.

    ** STRIKERS KEEPERS, LOSERS WEEPERS

    See Community Article (www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2021/09/16/strikers-keeper-losers-weepers-mvp-draft-results/) for the MVP draft results in this FFS Community team tournament organised by Boris Bodega and Greyhead. These were followed on Sunday by a final draft to fill all the remaining places.

    ** TOPS AND VETS

    Dirty Dave leads my Top 10k Any Season mini-league (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/1378/standings/c, league code kgmryk) for a second week and has risen to 40th overall.

    Paul Stow played his Wildcard and regained the lead in my Multiple Top 10k Finishes mini-league (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/1386/standings/c, league code 03t1fd), which is for teams with two or more top 10,000 finishes.

Between 2008/09 and 2014/15 he had six top 5k finishes in seven seasons, starting with 96th, 19th, 852nd and 4,219th in successive seasons.

    2009/10 FPL champion Jon Reeson (Westfield Irons) leads Simon March’s FPL Champions League (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/2594/standings/c) for a fifth week and has now entered the overall top 10k in 8,430th position..

    Paul Marshman (Back on the Horse) is the new leader in Chaballer’s Hall of Fame Top 1k mini-league (https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/39527/standings/c, league code 1zpaad) and has risen to 1,325th overall without playing any chips or wildcard. He has had eight top 10k finishes, five of them in the top thousand, and is 21st in the FFS Live Hall of Fame.

    Mark Reynolds (MIR) leads the FFS Mods & Cons mini-league (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/366/standings/c) for a second week and has now entered the top 10k in 6,776th position.

    And finally, Obay Eid (FPL_Milanista) leads the FFS Family mini-league (fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/342/standings/c) for a fifth week, and is now just outside the overall top thousand in 1,074th position after playing his wildcard.

      Cheers for the quick round up.

  25. jia you
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    This game can be cruel, correctly predicted an easy Chelsea win and went Lukaku(C)

    1. kobewan
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      scoring 3 goals and all didn't involve Lukaku was a harsh one,

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

    WC or Hold

    Sanchez, Foster
    TAA, Shaw, Livramento, White, Coady
    Salah, Bruno, Ben, Rap, Jota
    Bamford, Antonio, Scarleet

    original plan was to WC gw7 when Chelsea's Fixtures change, Looking to get rid of Shaw, Bruno or Jota..

    Any update on Rap's hip injury and TAA's Illness? Hope they will be available for Gw6

  27. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Used the WC, netted a 72 and up 150k to a respectable (I think), 133k!

    Great week!

    One question...

    Stick with James?

    Or James to Rudi/Alonso?

    I knew there would be some bumps in the road. Was so close to Rudiger but hindsight is a fine thing.

    Cheers all!

    1. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If you have no other problems in the team, James -> Rudiger is probably a shrewd move

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Security over flair?

        Reliability also!

        Ugh. Maybe I can find a way to have both soon!

  28. SalahFingers
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pogba + Edouard -> Benrahma + Antonio (-4)

    Yeah or No?

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

      It’s a yes from me.

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

      As long as you have Ronaldo sure

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

        Yep, have the big 4 (CR7, Salah, Lukaku, TAA)

        1. Stupendous
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

    Pick two to play:

    A. Torres - CHE (A)
    B. Livramento - WOL (H)
