    Start Gray or Shaw? (In 4-3-3)

      • 6 Years

      Shaw and let OGS decide

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

      Gray. Everton are going to score at least 5 goals so it's a no brainer.

    On WC

    Have Dias, Cancelo and Rudgier with Williams and Livramento as cheap fodder.

    Should I upgrade Williams to a better bench option even though I'll always play Cancelo, Dias, and Rudiger. Have 1.5 million in bank which allows more flexibility elsewhere. e.g. able to get Trent back easily. or if more expensive players become options.

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

      Ive just taken a hit to get White as a long term move. Williams may not even start today

      Yes when you have Williams you are always in danger of being in negtive points territory

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

    Wish i had the balls to cap Raph today…

    1. Jafalad

      Too risky. Been coming off after 60 mins last two games which suggests injury management.

    Lol, I am such an idiot, removed Alonso on WC last night for Azpi, only to change my mind and put Alonso back in this morning……0.2 lost!

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

      If Chilly starts that will cap it off

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

        Should I switch back to Azpi?

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

      I waited all week for Alonso to rise for a second time so I could afford the WC team I wanted, but missed that Raph was going to rise last night so am back to being 0.1m short.

    Is Kovacic a shout with those fixtures for Chelsea?

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

      Not for me.

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

      Could be yeah. Think I’ll see if Alonso starts again, if he does I’ll get him.

  17. Alli

    For this gameweek - Ronaldo or Lukaku?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Think they both score 1 each but maybe Ronaldo, or whichever one you can watch play!

    1. The Knights Template

      Rid

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

        To who?
        Arsenal mid?

  21. Junks
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Why are a lot of people thinking Alonso will be rested? I don’t get why he would?

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

      Hooked at 45 minutes against Juve

    2. user.n
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      The say his form drops lately

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

      Easier fixture maybe...playing time management possibly as he has started every game.

  22. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Re-post just want some thoughts.. Lukaku or Antonio Captain?

    It’s killing me.. Lukaku and Chelsea worst they’ve been the last 2 games and he hasn’t even scored in his last 4!. Meanwhile Antonio is hungry, seen that by his post match where he was very confident and is pushing himself to keep scoring.. thoughts all.. anyone in a similar situation?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Chelsea played two of the best managers in the world. Hard to take anything away from those games

    2. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Debating Antonio cap over Luka also. Not sure I can decide. Currently on luka

  23. user.n
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    What to do with Jota on long term? Best replacement?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Probably Raph if you don't have for long term

    2. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Still good value.

    15 pointer for White today, no celebration of winner…

  25. OLA
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Guys, need some advices.

    Now I have TAA and James injured and Livramento and Williams on the bench. Is it worth extra -4 cost to bring White instead of Williams or even Cancelo instead of TAA?

    Cheers to everyone!

  26. Muscout

    Should I change anything on this WC?
    Sanchez
    Rudiger Cancelo Duffy
    Salah Raph Benrahma Gallagher
    Lukaku Ronaldo Antonio

    Foster DougLuiz Livra Manquillo 0.1itb

    A) Sanchez or Ramsdale
    B) Ben or Saka/Sarr

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

      Gallagher -> Brownhill
      Manquillo -> Christensen

  27. Salarrivederci

    Gtg? .7 ITB and 0 FTs.
    No hits taken:

    Schmeichel

    Play Doucoure (MUN) or Toney (WHU) ?

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

      Toney by a nose. But I'd be looking elsewhere on Doucs form.

  29. TSN
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    am i crazy to captain alonso? or should i go for it?

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

      Crazy. Stick with attacking players in mid/fwds.
