      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’m on Williams

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years

      Livra

    3. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Same boat, I own no Chelsea so backing the saints clean sheet haha

  14. Joey Tribbiani
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    SCENES

  15. XX SMICER XX
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    What to do with Alonso on WC? I know I am going to be kicking myself come 2pm

    1. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Mate, I’m in the same boat - I think stick if you’ve got a deep bench just in case he explodes for 21 points

      1. XX SMICER XX
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Townsend Brownhill & Livramento!

        1. DannyDrinkVodka
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Good enough for Alonso!

  16. dark91
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Are people captaining CR7 because he will be captained a lot or because they believe Everton will concede?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Because it’s Ronaldo

      1. dark91
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        It was Ronaldo also last GW and he blanked. Everton are even a stronger side than Aston Villa

        1. Jarnathan
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Are they?

    2. Mozumbus
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Both

  17. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Alonso on WC, switch to Azpi? Have Rudiger:

    A) Yes
    B) No

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I have the same dilemma

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Azpi

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B if you have a good bench

  18. Isca Extremadura
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Raya or Foster ?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      To start or for backup?

  19. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    a) Dias + Jimmy
    b) TAA + Toney

  20. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

  22. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    It was tough not to do a transfer in my team this week but haven't 2 fts for international will hopefully pay off

    Rumours that Ronaldo will not play the full 90.

    Could be a benching. Could be an early sub.

    1. Don Van Vliet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Shock horror.

    1. Limbo
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

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

      if manu stay goalless in 80 minutes, he won't be subbed i think

  27. Limbo
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Got all of Lukaku / Ronnie / Antonio / Salah — this weeks (C) choice as tough as I can remember.
