FPL Gameweek 6 round-up: Saturday review, injury news and the things we learned

Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) scored for the fifth occasion in six Gameweeks on Saturday as Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.7m) produced a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) blank for the first time since his return to Manchester United.

Raphinha (£6.5m), Ismaila Sarr (£6.2m), Demarai Gray (£5.8m) and Diogo Jota (£7.7m) all delivered attacking returns on a good day for mid-price midfielders, while Michail Antonio (£7.9m) returned to scoring ways and Manchester City banked their fifth clean sheet in six league matches.

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 6 fixtures.

INJURIES AND BANS

FPL Gameweek 6 round-up: Saturday review, injuries and lessons learned 1

Raphinha (£6.5m) recovered from a hip injury to feature and score in Leeds United’s 2-1 loss to West Ham United but, after overcoming a blow to the head in the first half, was withdrawn midway through the second period – and pictured with ice on his legs on the hosts’ bench.

“He let us know that it was becoming difficult to stay on the pitch. Throughout the whole week, he was recovering from the knock he received against Newcastle. He played a great game as long as he could stay on the field.” – Marcelo Bielsa on Raphinha

Burnley goalscorer Maxwel Cornet (£6.0m) is one of three new injury worries for the Clarets.

“We lost J-Rod with a hamstring yesterday. Unfortunately, we lost Vyds to an injury. We’ve lost [Cornet] to an injury, [too]. It’s too early but I think it is his hamstring.” – Sean Dyche

Reece James (£5.6m) limped out of Chelsea’s defeat to Manchester City with an ankle problem, the extent of which is still unknown.

“I don’t know about Reece [James] at the moment. He twisted his ankle and it was very painful for him. I have no other news on him at this stage but let’s see how he is in the next few days.” – Thomas Tuchel

Two other defenders in the same price rung, Manchester United’s Luke Shaw (£5.5m) and Harry Maguire (£5.4m), came off with injuries in their defeat to Aston Villa.

“Sorry, I can’t give you any updates. We will have to use today and tomorrow and Monday or when we get the scans done and see how we are.” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Roberto Firmino (£8.8m) was back on the bench for Liverpool for their clash with Brentford, who lost goalscoring centre-half Ethan Pinnock (£4.6m) to a hip problem in the first half.

Rodri (£5.5m), John Stones (£5.3m), Aymeric Laporte (£5.5m), Joe Willock (£5.9m) and Jack Harrison (£5.8m) were among the previously flagged players who returned to their respective clubs’ matchday squads on Saturday.

THE THINGS WE LEARNED

FPL Gameweek 6 round-up: Saturday review, injury news and the things we learned 2
NEVER BACK AGAINST CITY’S DEFENCE

It’s five clean sheets on the spin for Manchester City, who didn’t look like conceding at all against Chelsea: the Blues have the lowest expected goals (xG) total of any side in Gameweek 6 so far.

Many of us will be considering City defenders from Gameweek 8 onwards but who would back against them shutting Liverpool out next weekend? Pep Guardiola’s side have conceded only two ‘big chances’ all season and just five shots on target – that’s eight fewer than any other side.

Following his assist at Stamford Bridge, Joao Cancelo (£6.0m) is now top among FPL defenders for points this season.

WHO IS ON PENALTIES AT UNITED?

Bruno Fernandes (£11.9m) skied a stoppage-time penalty as Ronaldo watched on in Manchester United’s defeat to Aston Villa.

Naturally, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was plagued with questions on spot-kicks in his post-match press conference and didn’t give us a completely clear-cut answer on who will take them in future.

“The decision [on who will take penalties] is made before the game, yeah.

“Bruno has been excellent, he’s such a good penalty taker and today, you’d back him with your mortgage. He’ll step forward every day of the week, for the club and the team, sometimes it just doesn’t go your way.

“This is going to be the headline isn’t it? Bruno has been excellent and Cristiano is probably the one who has scored the most penalties in world football. So we’ve got great takers here.” – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

MID-PRICE MIDFIELDERS REMAIN EN VOGUE

Salah is well clear at the top of the FPL midfielders’ table but the chasing pack are dominated by sub-£8.0m options.

And a look at FPL’s ‘form’ table (points divided by a club’s games played over the last 30 days) shows just why the likes of Sarr and Gray are so in demand.

The trio of Everton players featured above are all now among the top ten highest-scoring midfielders of the season.

Gray and Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.5m) have both returned in four of their six starts, while Andros Townsend (£5.4m) appears to be on penalty-taking duties in the absence of Everton’s two strikers – the winger scored from the spot in the Toffees’ 2-0 win over Norwich City.

FIVE DEFENCES TO TARGET

Five teams remain without a clean sheet this season and they all showed on Saturday why they are sides to target from an FPL perspective, conceding in their respective Gameweek 6 fixtures and allowing plenty of chances along the way.

Norwich, Watford, Newcastle, Leeds and Burnley are the clubs in question and all of those teams are in the bottom six for ‘big chances conceded’ in 2021/22.

All bar Newcastle of that quintet conceded between 1.99 and 2.17 expected goals (xG) on Saturday.

STAT WATCH – GAMEWEEK 6

Another week and another table-topping appearance from Antonio, whose expected goal involvement (xGI) figure of 1.63 was the highest in Gameweek 6 so far. The West Ham also couldn’t be bettered for shots in the box (six).

Antonio (5.41) is only narrowly behind Salah (5.43) for xGI over the course of the season, despite playing one game fewer.

The fall of Fernandes in FPL circles has been remarkable but he is not a complete busted flush, especially if – and that’s a big if – he remains on penalties. He created a remarkable 10 chances on Saturday, twice as many as any other player, and more than any other player in a single game in the last 20 months.

Allan Saint-Maximin (£6.7m), who has now delivered attacking returns in five of his six appearances this season, took his tally to 16 key passes with another five at Watford. He is now top among FPL forwards for chances created.

Jamie Vardy (£10.4m) certainly seems to be benefitting from playing as a sole striker and not sharing the limelight with Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.1m). He racked up more penalty box touches (14) than anyone else in Gameweek 6 and is second for that stat among forwards in the season as whole, as well as shots in the box.

Vardy is now level with Salah and Antonio for goals scored (five) in 2021/22.

    Would you rather have jota or TAA?

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

      TAA, by far.

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Taa, I’m thinking of losing Jota. City next and Bobby is back

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

      I'd rather have Trent than Mane, let alone Jota.

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

      I would have TAA over any middle priced mid including Grealish, Greenwood, Foden, Mount etc etc etc

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

      If it was a weird situation where you could only have one of them - it would be TAA by approximately 90 billion miles

      But thankfully that’s a very weird situation and they’re not mutually exclusive

    6. Ginkapo FPL

      Neither

        To get the big boys you need some tripe around the edges. Feel like Doucouré Gallahger offer the value to make it work.
        Where do you see the unbalance? Premos on every line.

        1. Fish up a tree
          • 2 Years

          Need a Cancelo or Dias + where do you go to when Doucoure & Gallagher get tough fixtures or form nose dives

    WC7

    Foster (Raya)
    TAA Alonso Rudiger (Cancelo Livramento)
    Raphinha Benrahma Salah Sarr (Luiz)
    Lukaku Antonio Saint-Maximin

    or ditch TAA + S-M for Vardy + 3.9 ?

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

      Looks good. Keep TAA.

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

      Good team. What formation you playing long term? I'm on WC too and going 4 ATB but not sure on formation

      1. Jensen Luiz Coleman
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I expect to flex formation depending on fixtures. Tempting to move funds from defence to get Vardy but concerned about rotation so opted for the weekly bench headache.

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

          I considered vardy up top too and also Jesus but I think 4 ATB with those particular 4 can cover. I'd have .8 itb to move funds to midfield if needed.

          You thought about DCL up top when fit? I started season with him and was a massive differential

          1. Jensen Luiz Coleman
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            I like DCL but missed a few bandwagons so TV is a constraint. City look very strong, Jesus is an interesting option with a decent bench. May do Benrahma to Gallagher to keep some cash ITB.

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

      Keep TAA too

    4. Gross Blank Point
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I went Doucoure and Gallagher for your Ben and Luiz, rest is the same,looks like the WC template is forming

      1. Jensen Luiz Coleman
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Based on current form, that gives you a very strong midfield.

        1. Gross Blank Point
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I like a full playing squad when there are definite defensive worries about 'nailedness'!
          Leaves me with 0.5 in the bank as well in case fires need to be be put out.

    5. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I've got Ramsdale over Raya, rest is the same!

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2 years, 6 months ago

    I was doing MotD challenge yesterday.

    What happened to Shaw that he had to go off after 34 mins? Also Reece James. Injuries get glossed over.

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

      Both are crocked.

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

        I heard that the Shaw 'injury' wasn't that bad and he might play next week. Just a random knock?

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

          Hope that's right. We're fecked without Shaw (as in United)

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

      James was twisted ankle, and given he has a huge body, he may have aggravated it more than.maybe a slimmer player. Shaw havent seen it.

    3. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      James Twisted ankle
      Shaw was hungry

  6. Philosopher's Stones
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Looked up a team this morning for my WC8 team with Ings, Lukaku and Antonio up top; Salah, Son, Mbuembo, Gray and Raphinha in the middle. And also left me 0.6 to change something if needed.
    But it meant I could choose only one of Rudiger/Cancelo/Dias. And no TAA. Looked pretty good bar a few absentees though.

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      *had 0.6 change if I went for Rudiger

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

      I think going without TAA is simply wrong. His average position is crazy and he is on set pieces.

      I'd go Gallagher over Mbuemo personally. Think Brentford will drop off eventually and he seems a bit neither this nor that

      1. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Looking to bring in TAA in GW13 when fixtures ease a bit. And good point about Gallagher vs Mbuembo. He's also in my watchlist. Thanks for the feedback.

    3. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Could go Son -> Grealish(depending on how they do till GW8) and bring in a City defender if needed though. Also leaves enough cash to uograde one of Gray/Mbuembo.

    4. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      No TAA may bite back sooner rather than later. Downfrade Ings to Toney and get TAA and Rudiger. Or downgrade Sonny to Gallagher and get Cancelo/TAA/Rud

      1. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Looking to bring in TAA around GW13. And good point about downgrading Son. Might do that and bring in Cancelo/Dias. Thanks.

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

      If it’s any consolation, Traore is more “due” than any player in the history of “due” FPL. Ever.

      It’s a bit like quantum physics where it’s simultaneously unfathaomable and yet completely predictable that by the end of today he will be on 0G 0A from 6 games and 3+ XGi

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

        Yep, as a person who follows the stats I had to get him…. Hasn’t worked out well

      2. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years

        More due than Luke Ayling by the end of last season

      3. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years

        Today might be the day The Traore Theory will replace The String Theory as the most interesting model in the field of Quantum gravity. Books will be written on it.

      Are you gonna WC this week? Seems time tbh although right before IB is not ideal to say the least.

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

        I think my team is probably decent enough to get me through this week and then WC next week

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

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

          I think of you can stumble through to IB that’s the right call. I’m hoping my lot limp through to it where then I hope to make strides

      2. Hy liverpool
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Gw8 is perfect time... IB are boring af, we need WC during each IB. Lol

  8. Cruiser23
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pushed the wildcard this week:

    Ramsdale
    Cancelo, Alexander-Arnold, Rudiger
    Salah, Raphinha, Benhrama, Gray
    Ings, Lukaku, Antonio

    Foster, Odeegard, Livramento, Goode.

    1.3 ITB

    Focus was on long term output and flexibility, and I felt my one tough decision was:

    a. Son + Saint-Maximin + Douglas Luiz + 0.0 ITB
    b. Raphinha + Ings + Odeegard + 1.3 ITB

    Obviously went with the second option, thoughts on the above choice moving forward?

  9. Matt Sk
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Bought Christensen yesterday as I thought that Colaman is gonna drop and needed a quick solution but he's a slight rotation risk right?

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

      I don't think he is tbh. And now James is out he looks even more nailed.

      Good pick. He might miss GW8 because of international duty.

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

      Yeah he ‘s still a risk - Rudiger, Silva, Christensen, Azpi, Chalobah have all started at least twice at centre back in 6 league games so far this season

      If CHO wasn’t there you could comfortably say Azpi will do right wing duties, but unfortunately CHO *is* there, and Azpi is coming 33 so will struggle to play 2 games a week, particularly in a high-octane wingback role

      Plus when Christensen does play, you’re looking at 6 points maximum when Chelsea keep a cleansheet, and 2 points maximum when they don’t

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

      Christensen IS a slight rotation risk, but the fact that James is now injured & Silva apparently had a little issue too will probably help him in the short term.

  10. patricio33
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Pick one:

    A. Vardy-Gray
    B. ASM-Greenwood

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

      A

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

    2FT and 0.2m ITB, 10.5k rank, what would you do?

    Sanchez Steele
    Cancelo Shaw Cash Ayling Tsimikas
    Salah Greenwood Benrahma Gray Brownhill
    Ronaldo Lukaku ASM

    1) Shaw + Ayling to Azpi + Livramento
    2) Shaw + Greenwood to Azpi + Raphinha

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

      You will have to monitor Raphinha's injury to do 2.

  12. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Raphinha having Brazil call up means he will miss gw8?

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      WC gw8 will be fun

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

      I doubt he will go if he’s carrying an injury

  13. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    What of the following will you have going in to next week and have short term?

    A) Lukaku Ronaldo
    B) Lukaku
    C) Ronaldo

    Looks like last two gameweeks has been a small victory for those having 2 big hitters and spreading cash in mid priced midfielders or Chelsea and Mancity defence.

  14. Sad Ken
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    If I transfer a player out on a wildcard and confirm, then choose to get him back in, do I lose the value I originally gained on him, or get him back for the same price?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      You lose the value

      1. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        As you buy him for his current price

        Oops.

    What are my best moves here? Torres & Marcal out for a -4 to bring in Sarr/Gallagher & Dias? Would then do CR7 to Lukaku next week for free?

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

    Bench: Steele - Sissoko - Williams - Livra

      Fixtures have almost gone for Sarr so tricky to say unless you want him long term.

      Maybe Gallagher or one of the Arsenal mids. See how they look today.

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

        Yeah feel like I’ve missed the Sarr bandwagon, I like the look of odegaard/Gallagher to be fair but will wait, should I move Marcal on to Dias now? Or make that move after they’ve played Liverpool.

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

          I’ve a soft spot for Smith-Rowe and he’s 5.3m now.

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

            Torres to Smith Rowe would leave me plenty of funds too.

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

      Or, just do the Torres move & wait for after Liverpool to take the -4

    3. Igz08
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Not sure getting rid of Marcal is worth taking a hit for

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

        Well my initial plan was ronaldo > Lukaku this week, but need to shift Torres and I really want a city defender.

        If I do Torres to someone like Sarr, Gallagher/odegaard it gives me more than enough to do Marcal > Dias.

  16. Igz08
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    This worth a -8 for this?

    Shaw -> Rudi
    Greenwood -> Kovacic
    Toney -> Vardy

    Then Marcal -> Cancelo the week after

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

      I’m sorry but I really don’t like those moves. I’d deal with Shaw and Greenwood. Toney looks the best striker pick around 6.5m

      1. Igz08
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah I just wanna get Vardy tbh cause he feels like a massive differential. But on reflection Toney has been brilliant too so don’t think I’ll be getting rid for a hit!

    2. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years

      F no

      1. Igz08
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yeahh think I’ll just do Shaw-> Rudi/Alonso

  17. rozzo

    Raya Gunn
    TAA Dias Cancelo James Williams
    Salah Greenwood Sarr Benrahma Allan
    Ronaldo Antonio Dennis

    1ft

    I know its early but

    A). James to Alonso
    B). Greenwood to Raphina
    C). Ronaldo to Lukaku

    1. Original Sin
      • 9 Years

    Morning all!!! A few ideas here would be lovely!! I have 2 free transfers(thankfully) will obviously wait till deadline but early thoughts would be welcomed!! Team is as follows…..

    Foster
    TAA Shaw White
    Salah Jota Greenwood Sarr
    Ronaldo Antonio Bamford
    Subs-Bachmann Williams Livramento Mendy

    Cheers everyone!!

    1. Mozumbus
      • 2 Years

      Try getting Chelsea.
      I'm in similar situation with a different team.
      Aiming for Chelsea plus Benrahma.

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah I’m looking at Jota, Greenwood and William to Raphinha, Benrahma and Rudiger which leaves me enough to get Cancelo for Shaw the week after mate, good plan???

        1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

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

          Looks like a good plan. Avoiding the hit could be then better.

  19. Kodap
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    How do these moves look over the next two weeks?

    Torres > Gallagher/Odegaard this week
    CR7 > Lukaku next week
    Marcal > Dias the following week.

    What do you think about Cash aka Polish Cafu ?

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

      Meant to flog him after GW3 but had more pressing issues, glad I still own him looks a really good option from GW8 especially

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

        Getting Targett over him or literally any other Villa def has hurt me worse than any other decision

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 6 months ago

        He's polish?

        1. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          His mother is Polish and he has applied for a Polish passport.

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

      Maybe the best solution is to dump both Ronaldo and Lukaku?

      DCL Antonio Vardy front 3 could be as good as it gets plus plenty of cash to have a solid team 🙂

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

        No Lukaku is madness with their upcoming fixtures. At the very least you'll want him from GW9 onwards if you can't get him this week.

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

      Next week captaincy will be even more interesting

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

        Antonio is a God. That is all.

        1. Philosopher's Stones
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          You could play and captain Antonio up top against all the Hindu, Christian and Muslim God's best XI and Antonio would still come away with a return.

    5. artvandelay316
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Terrible WC result this week and now thinking I need to take a hit to get my team into shape.

      Ronaldo to Lukaku FT already done. Should I do 1, 1 + 2, or 3?
      1) VVD to Manquillo for -4
      2) Saint Maxim to Vardy for -8
      3) Stick, then do those two transfers one at a time over the following weeks

      Cheers.

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

      Thoughts on this wildcard draft?
      Sanchez
      Rudiger, Alonso, Cancelo
      Salah, Son, Grealish, Raphina
      Lukaku, Antonio, Armstrong

      Bench: Foster, Veltman, Liva, Gallagher

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

        no trent - start again

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

      Likely to go with this on WC

      Ramsdale

      Trent - Alonso - Cancelo

      Gray - Raph - Gallagher - Salah

      Antonio - Vardy - Lukaku

      (Foster - Liv - Williams - DLuiz)

      If alonso starts midweek I'll switch him to rudiger and if Ramsdale is dropped later i'll bring in Guaita. Other than that I think i'm good to go

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

        Very good.

        1. TheBiffas
          • 3 Years

          cheers

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

        I've been looking at a similar team

        Like it a lot, but worried about ditching Ronaldo

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

      My last 2 captains

      Jota 3 (6)
      Bruno 0 (0)

      Be weary who I captain next week lads

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Let us know who to avoid

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

          Probably Lukaku

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

        Obviously Kane?

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

          If I still have him that is.

          I’m likely doing Bruno/Kane to Salah/Lukaku.

          A Kane haul today as nice as it would be, would make things tricky

          1. Fish up a tree
            • 2 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Score prediction Kane boy?

            1. Paqueta Rice
              • 3 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              20+ points as I sold. Semedo will be similar as I benched.

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

              2-2

      3. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Loads of season left , it starts falling into place for you mate

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

          If I make the above moves I’ll be similar to most WCs barring a City defender tbf

    9. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Is Ronaldo really worth having or is it just mainly hype and FPL fear?

      1. Walter White (WW)
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not worth having especially if not on pens imo

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

        Not worth having if he blanks but essential when he scores.

        1. Gross Blank Point
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I haven't had him in my team but still got green arrows when he scored, so I wouldn't say he's essential.
          As long as others in your team are scoring then it's not worth the extra cash for him.
          There's definitely a fear factor at play in some shoehorning him into their team

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

        I think it's a similar situation to the BruNO movement at the start of the season

    10. Bruno Commando
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Is this week a good week to WC? or should I wait? I actually have 2 FTs now..

      Sanchez Steele
      TAA Shaw White Ayling Williams
      Salah Greeny Raph Traore Benny
      CR7 Antonio Obafemi

      1) CR7 + Shaw -> Lukaku + Alonso
      2) CR7 + Obafemi + Greeny -> Lukaku + Vardy + 4.5 for a -4
      3) Wildcard to get rid of CR7, Obafemi, Greeny, Ayling, Shaw

    11. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Plan was Dcl and Jota to Gallagher and Lukaku -4

      Shaw to Rudiger worth a further -4?

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Was happy to take the loss on Lukaku rising last night with the midweek games

      2. House Frey Wedding Planner
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Possibly if Shaw is out long term

        With the fixture swings Shaw's value will drop and Rudiger's will rise

        1. Paqueta Rice
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah. I have Coufal also dropping.

    12. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Who will haul more in your opinion...

      A - Gallagher
      B - Zaha

      1. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Think both will be similar and Zaha may even edge it, but Gallagher will be better value as he's a lot cheaper.

      2. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Stats favour Gallagher but Zaha may have penalties
