Scoreboard

FPL Gameweek 7 round-up: Sunday’s goals, assists, bonus and injuries

Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.0m) scored on his return to Leicester City’s starting XI, as Son Heung-min (£10.0m) registered his third double-digit haul of the season in a much-needed victory for Tottenham Hotspur.

Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m) inspired Brentford continued their impressive start, while Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) strengthened his perma-captain status with a goal, assist and maximum bonus.

However, it was a day to forget for those who handed Michail Antonio (£8.0m) the armband, as the Jamaican forward returned just two Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Points.

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

  • On his first Premier League start of the season, 2020/21 Fantasy favourite Kelechi Iheanacho bagged a goal, maximum bonus and nine FPL points. The Nigerian international registered 12 Premier League goals and two assists in just 1452 minutes last term. As a result, he ranked top amongst all forwards per 90 minutes for goals and joint-fourth for expected goal involvement (xGI). Should he now nail down a spot in Brendan Rodgers’ starting XI, he would instantly become an excellent option for our frontlines, ahead of games against Manchester United (h), Brentford (a) and Arsenal (h) after the international break.
  • As for Jamie Vardy (£10.4m), the veteran forward now tops the Premier League scoring charts having netted his sixth goal of the campaign at Selhurst Park. He has blanked in just two of his seven appearances in 2021/22, but despite that, has suffered a £0.1m price drop since the start of the season. Interestingly, Vardy touched the ball just 10 times against Crystal Palace this afternoon, compared to the more involved Iheanacho (32), who regularly dropped deeper to link play in Brendan Rodgers’ 4-2-3-1 formation.
  • Following today’s 2-2 draw, Patrick Vieira’s Eagles remain unbeaten at home, despite a testing run which has included games against Brentford, Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton and Hove Albion, and of course, Leicester City. The 8.3% owned Conor Gallagher (£5.7m) failed to return but attempted four shots, while Michail Olise (£5.4m) arrived off the bench and scored his first Premier League goal within nine minutes of coming on. He also took on a share of set-pieces. 
  • Son Heung-min’s third double-digit haul of the season – via two assists and two bonus points – ensured a big win for Nuno Espirito Santo and Tottenham Hotspur against Aston Villa. The South Korean international was the most advanced Spurs’ player on the day, and was a little unfortunate not to score, as he racked up five goal attempts, three shots in the box and 10 penalty box touches.
  • As for their opponents, Aston Villa, Dean Smith lined his troops up in a 3-5-2 / 5-3-2 formation for the fourth-successive Premier League match. Despite a disappointing loss, there were positives, as differential Ollie Watkins (£7.3m) opened his 2021/22 account. The dynamic between the England international and Danny Ings (£7.9m) is one to keep an eye on ahead of Gameweek 11, when Villa take on Southampton (a), Brighton (h) and Crystal Palace (a). Today, Watkins was the more advanced, and led his team-mate for goal attempts and shots in the box.
  • A dramatic late winner by Yoane Wissa (£5.9m) – his second goal in just 20 minutes of pitch time during the last two Gameweeks – at the London Stadium means that Brentford are now up to 7th in the Premier League table. Bryan Mbeumo was also on the scoresheet, but could have had more, having missed a couple of good early chances for the Bees’. Given that he has hit the woodwork a massive four times already this season, owners may still feel a little short-changed. Next up for Brentford is a testing encounter with Chelsea (h), before an appealing run of fixtures between Gameweeks 9 and 16, when their assets will surely be subject to huge interest.
  • Michail Antonio served up just his second blank of the season on Sunday, as Jarrod Bowen (£6.3m) scored West Ham’s only goal of the game against Brentford. For Bowen, it was his third attacking return since Gameweek 5, and as a result, he has now outscored his more popular team-mate – Said Benrahma (£6.6m) – by 17 FPL points to 15 during that time.
  • An entertaining clash between Liverpool and Man City at Anfield ended in a 2-2 draw, with Mohamed Salah delivering yet another double-digit haul via a goal,  assist and maximum bonus. The Egyptian is the top-scoring player in FPL with a whopping 70 points, at least 21 more than any other player. Team-mate Sadio Mane (£11.9m) was also on the scoresheet, with his fourth goal in his last six Premier League appearances.
  • For Pep Guardiola’s side, Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) and Phil Foden (£7.9m) both scored and are intriguing differentials ahead of Burnley (h), Brighton (a) and Crystal Palace (h). The Belgian attempted four shots in the box in Gameweek 7, with Foden registering two, while they both shared corner-taking duties with Jack Grealish (£8.0m).

Manchester City’s average position map v Liverpool in Gameweek 7

INJURY WATCH

Despite receiving lengthy treatment during the second-half at Selhurst Park, Jamie Vardy recovered and saw out the game.

However, Brentford weren’t quite so fortunate. 

The Bees’ lost Kristoffer Ajer (£4.5m) to a hamstring injury during the week, while Vitaly Janelt (£5.0m) took a knock (thigh) during the warm up and missed out despite being named in the starting XI.

Things then got worse as Shandon Baptiste (£5.0m) was forced off with a suspected dislocated shoulder in the first-half.

STAT WATCH – GAMEWEEK 7

The 5.1% owned Harry Kane (£12.1m) ended Gameweek 7 with six shots, a total no other player could improve upon. Despite that, the England captain blanked again, those his performance was more encouraging ahead of his team’s trip to Newcastle United after the international break.

Kevin De Bruyne also features highly, as does Said Benrahma, though only one of the latter’s five attempts arrived inside the penalty box.

Romelu Lukaku (£11.7m) was this week’s biggest non-pen xG underachiever, with a -0.77 total

Son Heung-min also appears on the list, along with team-mates Kane and Giovani Lo Celso (£5.9m).

    Am I completely mad for considering Werner over Lukaku on a WC..?

    1. I SPEAK ENGELS AND DRINK GI…
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      yes

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

      Yep. Did you watch last season?

      1. Dokdok666
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I did, I also watched him the previous 2-3 😉

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

      Oui

    4. Pratik
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He scores for one or two more weeks, and then everyone could agree with you. I think Lukaku will do much better against easier teams though, so I'm tempted to stick with him for now.

      1. Dokdok666
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Lukaku hasn't exactly been impressive after his return, has he? Or am I too influenced over his lack of output over the last three GW's..?

    5. yousunkmybattleship

      Yes quit right now

        As my son fpl name says 'Finding Timo' quiet fitting I think.

      2. Dokdok666
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I don't want to quit

  2. Steve The Spud

    Hopefully Everyone else gets hacked so I can win fpl and finally get my hands on that managers jacket

  3. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ramsdale or Raja?

    1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’m considering these two aswell, was initially set on Ramsdale but I have White, so think I will go for Raya next week!!

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah, I actually had Raya from GW1 to 4.

        Should have just stuck with him.

        1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Hindsight is a wonderful thing mate!!! Haha, I think we can get him in after Chelsea and just leave him there for the foreseeable future!!

  4. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Did anyone else think Spurs looked much better today?

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      We did. No coincidence that Dele Alli didn't play a minute. Now if we could just work Gil into the line-up instead of Ndombele we could be in business. Romero getting up to speed will help. Kane will be back in the FPL points soon.

  5. Pratik
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Hey folks! What are people thinking of getting rid of Benrahma or Antonio? I think I want to get rid of at least one on the WC. Need to take advantage of the fixtures to get ahead.

    1. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      This. Thinking of switching Antonio to Toney

  6. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Evening all!! Rank these 3 in order please…. Help me decide!!! Haha

    A- Gray
    B- Doucoure
    C- Townsend

    Many thanks!!!

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      As is

    2. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      ABC

    3. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’d say in that order

    4. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      C - form, set pieces
      B - form, nailed
      A - form

    5. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      ABC

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks everyone!! My initial Thinking was Gray and Townsend, Gray will definitely come in!! Gotta make a decision on the other two, Townsend being on set pieces could swing it for me, especially with DCL back soon !!

  7. Cheeto__Bandito

    Trent straight back in on wc?

    1. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yep. I’ve just sold him on wc with hope he’ll drop and I can buy him back a bit cheaper

      1. Pratik
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Hmmm. Would be lovely to see him at 7.4

    2. Pratik
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'm getting him back in GW13. I think City/Chelsea defenders will outscore him during that spell. I'm also upping the level of risk I take with the WC.

      1. Cheeto__Bandito
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        alot actually got rid of him so may even be a differential

  8. Billybigspuds
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone else thinking KDB?

    Differential

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I love KDB. Need very little excuse to get him but very hard to justify a place this year at that price.

    2. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Instead of or in addition to Salah?

    3. Pratik
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'm thinking Jesus/Foden are enough of a differential? I'm not feeling confident about KDB right now.

    4. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      In addition.

      Can squeeze salah, lukaku, TAA and kdb into the same team and looks ok

    5. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Main fear is pep roulette

    6. Gross Blank Point
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He's overpriced by about £3 million this season.
      He's an outstanding player but in FPL terms he's just not worth the premium price any more sad to say

  9. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Just seen the highlights of the West Ham game and saw that Soucek was given the assist for the Bowen goal. Absolutely outrageous. Its clearly the defender who heads it to Bowen. Soucek didnt touch it. To make it even more unjust, he got 3 bonus pts on the back of it.

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

      Suck it up Buttercup.

      1. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Intelligent response there. Helpful. Your quite happy to see assists being wrongly awarded then? Lets hope you dont lose a mini league to somebody who had Soucek this week.

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

          Swings and roundabouts. Milner should have been sent off for definite. Plenty of time left to make it back and most have had a poor GW.

          1. gooberman
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Again such a silly example. Milner not being awarded a 2nd yellow was a refereeing error so not at all comparable.

            1. Big boy Bowen
              • 7 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              Plus nobody has Milner

        2. EffPeeEll
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          It's just a game ffs

          Move on

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

      Sure De Bruyne goal could have been an own goal. Alison could have stopped it if it wasn't deflected by Matip. Coulda, woulda, wasn't.

      1. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Sorry but what sort of nonsense is this? The shot was on target so cant be an OG regardless of the deflection. Straight forward, nothing complicated. Please explain how this is comparable to a player being awarded an assist when he didnt touch the ball!

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        You’ve been on here 10 years and you still don’t understand the rules. Impressive

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

          I understand the rules. And Gooberman is spot on, the defender headed the ball, Soucek didn't touch it. My point isn't about the rules, it's that the officials can make mistakes. Possibly Matips touch could have been deemed a significant deflection cos Alison could have covered it up, though very unlikely. My Milner point was if Pool were down to 10 me City could have won the game and FPL tallies would be different. Going on a tangent now but BBC site still has Son down for just one assist. Was delighted he got a second. Martinez got a late bap after the game finished. Mistakes are made, they're part of the game. Don't let them ruin your day.

      Cheers guys. Think I'll just do it. Feels like I'm just being over clever holding it any longer.

  11. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    So Pep just hates Torres again now?

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

      No he hates Mahrez too.

    2. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Think he was just filling a gap whilst the big guns got themselves fit

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

        Ederson, Dias and De Bruyne are his big guns. The other lads are on the roundabout until he takes them off it.

    3. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      So many people were saying he's an OOP striker playing for City and he's only 7M. He's played 63 minutes in 4 gameweeks since that Arsenal haul.

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I fell for it.

        Of course, I'll sell him this GW and he will go and start against Burnley and haul again.

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

          I’m holding. Bigger fires to put out elsewhere & I think/hope he gets decent minutes in the next 3.

          Dennis first on bench for him :/

  12. HD7
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    2 FTs:

    Sarr to Saka is the first Im considering after Int break If TAA is back and there arent new injured players.

    Any other bright ideas, mates?

    Ramsdale
    Trent* Rudiger Dias Marcal
    Salah Raph Gray Sarr
    Ronaldo Lukaku

    Steele Sissoko Livra Scarlett

  13. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    So, I ended up with 9 players, no bench and a green arrow.

    What the hell is going on here?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It was a random gameweek. Well done on the green arrow, take it and run!

  14. dshv
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    From
    90k to 220k

    WC on… see you in 10 days with the Wc team..

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      That's FPL for ya!

  15. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    What do you reckon Trents will be by the time next GW begins? 7.4m or 7.3m?

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      *Trents price

    2. Pratik
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      At best 7.4. Not a lot of people will be getting rid of him, especially when not on WC.

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Second most transferred out player in the game.

        1. Pratik
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          You don't know how many of those are players on WC (you don't affect price rise when on WC, so you should always do it late).

          1. Pratik
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            *you don't affect price rise when on WC, so ideally activate your WC late.

            I think there are other interesting rules about price rise/fall, and how its based on percentage of ownership which I can't recall now.

            So very confident of it not hitting 7.3, might hit 7.4.

    3. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      7.5 sadly

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Surely he’s bound to drop at least once over IB? Second most transferred out player in the game.

    4. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not sure he’ll drop once

  16. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    LMS safety score anyone?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      33

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Damn, adios

  17. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Foden haul isn't too helpful, was hoping to punt on him for next week but he'll likely rise soonish now so I'll need to do it earlier than I'd hoped.

    1. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Really?

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years

      Wait until near the deadline.

        2 years, 5 months ago

        Affordability is part of the issue as well as considering further moves, weirdly enough with him playing today I'm almost less confident of going with him now thanks to Pep's unpredictability

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

          It isn't. You get him and him or another of your 14 gets injured and your -4 to cover him. Rotation puts me off City attackers bar De Bruyne since I sold Grealish. Waiting's a pain in the ar$€ no doubt but points make prizes.

    3. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Will be benched.

  18. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ronaldo and Fernandes both dropping is annoying and Salah rising.

    1. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Guaranteed haul vs Leicester.

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I know, their defence is shocking. Almost as bad as Uniteds!

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

        This. Big decision time as really want Lukaku & it’s between CR7 & Vardy out

  19. sirmorbach
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    WC team:

    Ramsdale / Foster
    TAA / Cancelo / Rüdiger / __________ / Livramento
    Salah / Raphinha / Benrahma / Townsend / Luiz
    __________ / Jesus / Antonio

    A. 3-4-3, Duffy and Lukaku
    B. 4-3-3, Dias and Vardy

    1. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Is Jesus nailed on?

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

        I don't think he is, no, but I think I might take the risk with Duffy, Livra and Luiz on bench. Besides, I could always go to Jimi.

      2. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        He has started every game since gw2. Seems himself and Foden have ousted Sterling and Mahrez for now.

      3. Henry the Black Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        The Bible seems to think so (but I’d disagree) 😉

      4. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Want to make sure this comment gets the kudos it deserves.

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

      I am thinking to bring jesus too.. and yes he is in great form and the only pure striker at city

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

        Tempting, innit?

      2. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        He’s been playing wide though not as a striker but I get your point

    3. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A. I think Chelsea will dish out a biblical whupping in GW9 with Mount and maybe James back. Everyone will captain Lukaku probably.

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

        Cheers!

      2. No Kane No Gain
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Will lukaku play 90 though. Got Brentford and champions league mid week in the same week

  20. StayoutheSpiceZone
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Right - slightly different WC - what do you guys reckon?

    Raya 4.0
    Cancelo Azpi White Livramento Duffy
    Salah KDB Mbuemo ESR Raphinha
    Jimenez Lukaku Armstrong

    Thanks

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

      Not exactly a fan of ESR and not sure I'd go with KDB, but what the hell. Could work wonders.

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

        I defo wanted to get KDB in. ESR is there for the cheap balance. I could however downgrade Jimenez to Toney and upgrade ESR to 7.0m

    2. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Like most of it but not sure about Armstrong. Think Toney over the long term will do well and is a great pick up at 6.3.

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

        Ok thanks mate

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yep, Armstrong seems less than great. Rather Toney and a 4.5 mid.

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

      Armstrong to Hwang +0.5m. He's Son's (very distant) cousin you know 😉

    5. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Would rather ESR to a 4.5 as the 8th attacker.

      Jimenez > Hwang and then use the money to get Armstrong to someone on a team that looks like scoring.

      Like the KDB move.

    Please advise

    Sa

    TAA/Digne//Rudiger

    Salah/Benny/Sarr/Raphina

    Ings/Antonio/Lukaku

    (Foster/Livremenco/White/Gallagher)
    1ft

    Question is would u WC over IB or hold?
    This team has got me to 55k OR until this wk where iv dropped 25k or so with a 40ptr

    Wat would u do?

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I actually think that’s good enough to save ft

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'd say that looks pretty decent - just Digne and maybe Sarr that need shifiting at some point.

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

      Hold. Check Trent near GW8 and drive on.

      1. camarozz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah was actually thinking I could save the ft as Digne has a goodish fixture, can give Sarr one more gw. Watford were poor at wk end.
        Thanks guys.

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

      Could easily save. On same boat ending up with Digne until this point but I like it. Think he returns well over the next 4

  22. Puzzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    WC this lot?

    Sanches, Steele

    Shaw, Alonso, Rudiger, Semedo, Duffy

    Salah, Jota, Benrahma, Sarr, Brownhill

    Ronaldo, Antonio, Toney

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

      Yea

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      You could probably hold off a bit longer. Any ft or money itb?

      1. Puzzle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        1 and 2m.

        1. Paqueta Rice
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Shaw to Cancelo/Dias? You could play 433 next week benching Sarr, Semedo and Brownhill

          Sanchez
          Cancelo, Alonso, Rudiger, Duffy
          Salah, Jota, Benrahma
          Ronaldo, Antonio, Toney

          Looks good for gw8

          1. Puzzle
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Yes, thought about that. But will Alonso play?

            1. Paqueta Rice
              • 3 Years
              2 years, 5 months ago

              Chillwell goal certainly helped gloss over his blunders including giving away the pen. It’s hard to say but you have Sarr as cover anyway.

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Naa

    4. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not a straight yes, that is for sure.

      Shaw, Jota, Ronaldo are definitely a yes imo.

      Alonso, Semedo, Benrahma, Sarr are a potentially.

      I’d argue, that it is a good time to move on from Antonio.

      1. Puzzle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        My thinking as well. Feels like a lot of my team is behind the curve atm, but no crisis just yet.

      2. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Ronaldo could do very well against Leicester if United finally click.

  23. Billybigspuds
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ok, not sure I’ve done this but going for a fairly radical wc:

    Ramsdale Foster
    TAA, Diaz, James, Liv, Duffy
    Salah, KDB, Raph, Saka, Normann
    Lukaku, Toney, 4.5

    Getting shot of Antonio is most controversial.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Just save yourself the headache with James. I like the Kdb pick.

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Was wondering where all the money went, then I noticed Kev. You sure?

    3. Billybigspuds
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Cheers. Currently got chillwell in the team, I could stick with him.

      Urge to get KDb is strong

    4. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Think I’d prefer Hwang and ESR to Saka and a 4.5.

      (Think that’s the same price).

      1. Billybigspuds
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers rogdog. I like the look of hwang but not his fixtures.

        And thought Saka had more potential than esr

        1. RogDog_jimmy
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Interesting, I love Wolves fixtures through gw14 really.
          Agree on Saka over ESR though. Best of luck!

    5. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      KDB is still off the pace and not worth the cash. Get foden

      1. Billybigspuds
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That was my other city option. Appreciate KDB is a gamble but might be fitter and coming back into form is 2 weeks.

  24. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    This wildcard business is tough. Quick question, who is 100% nailed in your team? Mine are as followed:

    Raya
    Cancelo
    Livramento
    Salah

    The rest, well.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      For now, Raphina is going nowhere from my team. Rudiger pretty nailed.

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Salah
      Cancelo
      Rudiger
      Livra
      Trent
      Another city/Chelsea def

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Kaku
      Rudi
      Raph
      Mo
      Trent
      Antonio
      Livra

    4. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Raphinha, Lukaku and Rudiger (at least for the fixture run), Salah, Antonio… that’s probably it

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Trent when fit, will buy Cancelo or Dias this week and they won’t go anywhere…

        Oh, and Livramento.

    5. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No Chelsea?

  25. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who would you get rid of first folks?? The other will go the week after!! Thinking get rid of Sarr first??

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Ummmmmmm

    2. Origi-nal
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      The other.

    3. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Tricky one

    4. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      From those options I’d agree, Sarr

  26. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    So Watford sack their manager.

    They just can't help themselves can they!

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not an original thought, but "he'll be back"

  27. dshv
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Is it too much to go on WC with:
    Taa dias cancelo rudiger

    1. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No it’s pretty much the template if you’re WC’ing now

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Mange tout, Rodney, mange tout.

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No I think there’s loads of good value in mid and forwards so no problem with expensive defence

  28. umerlfc
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    WC this? No FT

    Sanchez
    TAA Cancelo Alonso
    Salah Jota Raphinha ESR
    Lukaku Antonio Jimenez

    Steele Semedo Gilmour Amartey

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Hell no

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Solid team, no need to wc

    3. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Ah looks great.

  29. No Kane No Gain
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku worth keeping if I don’t plan to captain him any time soon?! Just feel he isn’t doing that great and I’m not convinced he gets 90 mins against Norwich in gameweek 9 becuase of the schedule!

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He’s hardly firing right now - although it seems close.

      Be interesting to see how to spend the money instead. If I didn’t have him already I’d consider not getting him for sure.

    2. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Unfortunately yes, imo, as his fixture run is as good as it gets. Funny how pretty much all of us (myself included) have been blinded by the premium forwards for captaincy over Salah

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        To be fair Salah was playing City - one of (if not the) best defenses in the league. He’s had 4/7 captains for me and will have it for most of the next few weeks for sure.

      2. Dokdok666
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Brentford is not a good fixture...the 3 after, though...

  30. T.Henry14
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Wildcard used at the right time. After two poor weeks, green arrows again before international break.
    Without a wildcard it would be a terrible score again.

    Gambling with De Bruyne is paying off for now.
    I hope that they will play even better after the break, and then easier matches will follow.

    Now I pray there will be no injuries during the break.

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Good work!

      I played mine, and while I only made 4-6 pts more than I would have I feel great about my team set up for the fixture swing, which was the point.

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

      Nice one. De Bruyne should get back to his best fairly soon.
