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.

    Selling Mbeumo for Sarr should I do it tonight as Sarr could rise during the week ?

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

      Yes good move

    2. 1984 TC
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Nah not a good move

    3. Zebras
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No reason to rush this just yet. Should have a few days before price rides are more of a factor

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

    Would you still get raphinha if you already have Bamford?
    Considering Bamford to raphinha
    Also no West Ham cover

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

      Considering Torres to raphinha *

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

      Leeds just don't look good at all.

      I can see West Ham wiping the floor with them

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

    Semedo and Raph
    To
    Rudi and Gallagher?

    Hmm. Interesting one!

    Gives me....

    James Rudiger Cancelo TAA

    Nil nil City Chelsea would be lovely!

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

      Gallagher has Brighton
      Raph is flagged and Leeds are rubbish

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

        Brighton were lucky today. I think Gallagher in this week is a good move. The fact he blanked in a 3-0 loss to Liverpool is making everyone go Sarr over Gallagher when Gallagher is not only cheaper, but arguably performed better so far.

        Watford just played the worst team in the league.

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

          How were Leicester in general? Barnes any good?

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

            Barnes was a bit hopeless. But Leicester responded well after going a few goals behind. They are a top 6 side imo. Even if this particular result went against them.

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

          So do it then haha?

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

            Doesn't fit my plan.

            Roll FT this week for me. But in general, I think Gallagher over Sarr might be the long term better decision.

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

            For you, no I wouldn't do Raph out unless he's injured.

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

              Fair. They have some run don't they? Shame they don't inspire any confidence

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

          Although I agree with some of your points, Sarr also plays the second worst team in the league next so that’s appealing in itself.

          I don’t own him, but the temptations definitely there.

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

            Would you do the move posed?

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

    There’s a part of me that still wants to punt on Barnes for the next 2.

    1. 1984 TC
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ignore that part of you sir.

  5. 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. Might need a mini wc to get Jota out too

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Livramento
    Salah Jota Raph Sarr
    CR7 Antonio Bamford

    Steele Coady Dier McArthur (1ft 0.5m itb)

    1. jonnybhoy

      Save deffos

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

    WC Available will be using on GW7

    should I do this on gw6?

    A. Bruno, Scarlett > Ronaldo, 4.7 for MF -4 hit
    B. Bruno > Mane
    B. Bruno > Gray/Greenwood/Gallegher/Saar free up some funds
    C. Hold

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years

      C

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

      What's the point of freeing up funds if you're WCing next week?

      A if you think you get the hit paid back straight away, would you captain Ronaldo?

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

        Not 100% on a WC really, my reason was getting Chelsea Asset GW7 onwards, primary was getting Lukaku but with freeing funds to get rid of Bruno, I could get Lukaku for gw7 with FT

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

    Thoughts on this non TAA team to fund Lukaku/Ronaldo combo for a GW7 wildcard. Lost of wait and see picks but have really good fixtures.

    McCarthy Foster
    Rudiger Tierney Semedo Duffy Livramento
    Salah Benrahma Bailey Raph Grealish
    Lukaku Ronaldo 4.5m

    Cheers guys

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

      Wouldn't want to go without TAA and don't like Semedo. Bailey is flagged and has played a grand total of 84 minutes.

  8. Taegugk Warrior
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Before price changes...
    1FT, and still have Wildcard.

    A. Toney to ASM
    B. Raph to sarr
    C. Amartey to Marcal (white & livra is 3rd & 4th def)

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

      C

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

      A

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

      C but not Marcal, not beyond the realms of possibility to see a shake up at the back with Wolves, imo.

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

      B

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

      Toney is the one you want to lose so A.

      Transfer focus should be on removing weaknesses.

    6. 1984 TC
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      A

    7. kobewan

      2 years, 6 months ago

      C

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

    Would you do Torres to benrahma using FT?

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

      Yeah

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

      100% but don't be surprised when Torres starts.

      City were crap and he didn't play a minute.

      Fortunately for your move its Chelsea next

  10. FPL Bond @ Twitter

    Amartey to Livra before price change?

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

      Yes.

      1. FPL Bond @ Twitter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Livra or Duffy??

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

      yes

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

    Shaw to Rudiger, yes or no?
    2 FTs but 0.0 ITB, fixtures not ideal but could get priced out.

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

      yes

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

        does Rudiger rise today?

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

          other option is Christensen, allows 0.5 to go Jimenez to Antonio potentially?

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

          probably tomorrow

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

            fingers crossed.

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

            Have a feeling he could rise, however.

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

      No

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

        reasoning?

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

          I think Shaw is a very good chance of delivering some nice points this week and should out score Rudiger. Look to make the move next week if you feel the same way, if you roll one FT you can still do it for free if needing to get the extra cash from a another transfer.

          Or you could do as you have just suggested and target Christensen instead.

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

            yes, 2FTs so I have some flexibility to move.

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

      Yes

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

        yes, no certainties United keep a clean sheet against Villa.

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

          I’m most certain we won’t keep a cleansheet. We always concede in some way or the other every game

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

            Yes and Shaw inevitably goes for me the week later.

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

      I think it's safe to wait another day re price changes

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

        That's my plan, also have Raphinha so might get some news on him.

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

      Yes.

  12. FPL Bond @ Twitter

    Livramento or Duffy?

    Would you hold or sell Torres this week?

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

      if wildcarding soon, there's more incentive to sell based on next 2 fixtures
      i just brought in this week and obv backfired
      will probably hold to have 2ft gw7

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

      I think I am holding. Waiting on whether Raph is injured, if so for how long out.

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

      Prob sell, depends though who yoi're getting for him.

    4. DGW Sane TC Fail....
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      you should hold he's just had a rest and city can score against anybody. Look at Chelsea last home game against Villa ..they gave up loads of chances ..Villa should of had a couple.

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

      Rid

  15. DameCorp
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Tough spot for those that have Shaw and plan on swapping to Rudiger next week. Looking like it'll be a 0.2 swing.

    Not sure you can pull the trigger this week given their relative fixtures.

    Or can you?

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

      Chelsea CS incoming surely. I mean Southampton did.

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

        Can't recall too many games in recent years where City went scoreless in successive matches

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

          This. Plus Pep will start his strongest XI on Saturday. Whatever that it.

  16. tokara
    • 9 Years

    Would u consider to sell Vardy for Antonio to block?

    All rivals have Anto

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

      I would certainly consider it but not for that reason, bit early in the season to be making moves to 'block' rivals, imo.

    Why are there two 12:30 kick offs next week?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years

      Good question. TV companies dictating the kickoff times?

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

      Clash with some concert apparently, crowd control concerns etc.

      between him or salah.
      Should have had a penalty, definitely.

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

      Ronaldo or punt on Sarr maybe

      Prolly do Ronaldo c, Sarr v

      So many options though for punts

      Gray, Sarr, Raph, Antonio, Benny

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

    Harvey Barnes wow. Just saw those two goals that weren’t given.

  23. MillsAU
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez [Steele]
    TAA Shaw White [Ayling] [Tsimikas]
    Salah Greenwood Raphinha Benrahma [Brownhill]
    Ronaldo Antonio Bamford
    + 0.4

    GW8 I am planning Shaw to Rudiger, Ronaldo to Lukaku so I have one trade to spend between now and then.

    1. Do I wait to later in the week to use it if there is further news on Raphinha or TAA?
    2. Do I accept that those two are "keeps" even if a little injured or missing a week, and hold the trade to see if Greenwood still gets no ball after next week?
    3. Do I trade Ayling/Tsimikas now to Livramento to strength the bench?

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

      I’d consider Greenwood > Sarr or Gray. He seems a little out of the game lately and getting subbed.

      Good little gamble pick for me. Low risk

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Exactly the same set-up here. Try to save the tranny as triple Chelsea looms large.

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

    The best option for the next 5 GWs?
    A)Raphinha
    B)Gallagher
    C)gray
    D)Benrahma

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

      A

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

      D

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

      All great. Wouldn't mind all 4 with Salah tbh

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

      C

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

      A

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

    Don’t want to double up on Leeds attack but raphinha vs Benrahma is pretty close..currently leaning on getting benny back

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

      If Raphinha is fit I'd go him.
      Who do you think goes out of the side for Antonio?

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

        Vlasic

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

          yeh, interesting one.

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

      You should post some more about it.

  26. RogDog_jimmy
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    I hate early transfers but gotta take my medicine when things don’t work out.

    2ft done - Bruno + Perica > Gilmour + Ronaldo
    0.1itb

    Sanchez, 4.0
    TAA, Shaw, Semedo, (Duffy, Livramento)
    Salah, Greenwood, Jota, Benrahma (Gilmour)
    Antonio, Jimenez, Ronaldo

    If I did this two weeks ago I’d still be top 10k. Have slipped to 70k thinking my long game would pay off but it just didn’t.

    Oh well.

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

      May consider a hit to get Raph in for Greenwood and free up cash for Semedo > Dias/Rudiger for gw7.

      Probably won’t though.

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

        I reckon that Greenwood will bounce back against Villa next GW

        1. tokara
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          might score one yesterday if CR7 pass the ball

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

            Yep.

            He made some really good runs and got into some good spaces on a few occasions

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

      Yeah Greenwood/Jota are hard to get rid of but also if they aren’t delivering it’s just too much money to have sit there.

      Not rushing on that one for sure. Probably makes more sense to wait a week

  27. Ragabolly
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Risers: Ronaldo (12.7) Salah (12.6) Saint-Maximin (6.7) Dias (6.1) Duffy (4.3)

    Fallers: Fernandes (11.9) Willock (5.9) Chilwell (5.6) Connolly (5.3) Bailly (4.9) Areola (4.8) Aarons (4.4) Forster (4.4) Adrián (4.4) Chambers (4.3) Roerslev (4.3)

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

      Thanks.
      I was almost convinced Rudiger would rise.

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

      Chilwell at 5.5 soon!

      Hmm.

      Chelsea really are the new minefield!

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Will he ever get back in the team though? One thing is for sure, if you ever bring in Alonso, he'll be dropped immediately

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

          Yup

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

          Yup re Alpnso

          Chilwell a step too far atm for me

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

            Alonso was very good.

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

              He was a winger.

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

                Yeh, + corner duties.

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

        yea Minefield, please dont go there....

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

      And that’s why I did it with minutes to spare 0.2 saved on the early transfer. Cheers!

      1. 1984 TC
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Very genius of you sir!

        Let’s just hope no one gets injured in your team in the next 6 days.

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

          Bench runs 3 deep now so feeling ok. Even my back up keeper played.

          Felt the right time to make the risk.

    4. GreennRed
      • 12 Years

      3-0...merci

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

      Is anyone going to try the Chilwell + Alonso combo…

      Pricewise at 11.3 it’s kind of like 7.5 for a starting Chelsea left back + a 3.8 on the bench …

      The problem comes when he starts the one you benched and cameos the one you started lol

      1. Harry the Hack
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        think this weekend showed doubters you want full playing benches...

        1. Chemical76
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Absolutely this.

          Dennis and Christensen from my bench gave me tiny green arrow.

    8. Thescaff
      • 5 Years

      4 up, cheers man

  28. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 6 months ago

    Morning gents. How did everyone's GW go? Livramento off the bench outscored my entire premium back for of Shaw, TAA, James and Semedo combined but 62 all out so not bad overall.

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

      67. So not bad.
      Could have been more but had Williams first sub over Livramento.

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        It made sense on paper. I had Sissoko ahead as well but had both TAA and James out

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

          It did, not sure what the CS %'s were but Williams v Watford (H), what's a better fixture/when else is he an option?
          Owning Sarr and being a Southampton fan, had me thinking afterwards I should've gone the jugular with Livramento.

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

            I also heavily considered Sanchez to Ramsdale last week, but 2FTs this round is probably quite useful.
            Also, Arteta's press conference comments pre Burnley scared me off + there being no consistent 4.0 gk currently.

            1. fish&chips
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Same here. I went for guaita on WC in the end. Looked quite good vs Liverpool so hopefully it was a good choice

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

                yeh, I used the WC 2 weeks ago, at, which point Ramsdale hadn't played.

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

      Taa Cancelo Semedo James LIVRA

      72 pts and up to a nice 139k

      Take it!

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Very nice

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

          Ta. Rudiger over James would have sent me way up. Ugh

          1. fish&chips
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Same, but that's FPL.

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

      57.
      Not great. Drop from 37k to 70k.

      No catastrophic GWs so far but 4 reds since gw1 8k start.

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        It's really tight up there still. I'm just behind you on 80k

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

          Yeah. Definitely a good start but too easy to think of negatives.

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

      61 with Livra pts.

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

      surprisingly well.. 70 pts all out and up to top15k. Had to use both my bench options of Livramento & Ayling this week with 0 points on the bench

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

        Super good. Nice one

  29. Ruinenlust
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Will Rudi rise today?

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

      In 23 hours 55mins?

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

        Agree.

  30. seewhyaxe
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    morning dz, any early thoughts on this bunch?
    2 ft and no idea what to do here, still got my wildcard too. 0.8m itb

    Ayling probably needs to go

    Sanchez 4.0

    TAA Shaw Ayling White Livramento

    Salah Jota Greenwood Raphinha Benrahma

    Ronaldo Antonio 4.5

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

      Ayling needs to go for sure.

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

        So Ayling out for a budget one like Coady/Duffy, roll the other sounds good?

        Jota & Greenwood may need fixing soon I reckon

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

          Yep. Ayling first.

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

      Greenwood > Sarr
      &
      Ayling > Dias/Rudiger?

      Defense gets super charged and you start to attack fixtures.

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

        I do have slight reservations of removing a Utd asset ahead of Villa and adding a Chelsea asset ahead of City.
        Nonetheless, I understand the timing may not always be perfect.

        Thanks though, those moves look interesting!

    3. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      TAA Shaw White is a decent defence next week.

      If you're not bothered by TV I'd just shift Jota to your choice of Gray, Sarr or Gallagher with a view to WC in 7. I'd get Gray myself.

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

        Thanks! If I have 2 FTs in 7, I may not need to wildcard.
        Something like Ronaldo + defender -> Kaku + Rudiger/Alonso may do the trick

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

          Yep

          Overlooked the 2FTs. Shaw to choice of Chelsea in 7 would look good.

          I say Gray as he has 4 of 6 at home coming up and some tasty ones in there. DCL back after IB could improve him too.

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

            Thanks! This means I rid of Jota/Greenwood this week for an enabler like Gray/Gallagher/Sarr.

            A part of me is also considering Odegaard lol.

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

          Like this. I’m angling for the same.

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

            Yea I've actually penned these moves down for gw7.

            Let's see if there would be any info leading up to then that may change things up
