The best FPL midfielders for a Gameweek 8 Wildcard

With many Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers activating their first Wildcard during the international break, we’ve picked out some of the best midfield options on offer across a range of price points.

This is an update of the series we did for Gameweek 7 Wildcarders, with fresh data and a couple of new targets for those deploying their chip this week.

However, it will also be of interest for those using ‘free’ transfers ahead of Gameweek 8.

All stats taken from this article are from our Premium Members Area.

MOHAMED SALAH

Who are the best FPL captain options for Gameweek 2? 7

On current form, Mohamed Salah (£12.7m) is clearly the standout premium midfielder on offer.

Playing some of his best football since joining Liverpool, the Egyptian has already racked up six goals, four assists and 70 FPL points in just seven Premier League starts. His 28 goal attempts, 24 shots in the box and 4.89 expected goals (xG) are all league-leading totals, while his 10 points per match is more than any other player in the game.

The Reds’ attacking form is also worth touching on. Jurgen Klopp’s side have now scored 22 goals in their last seven matches in all competitions, averaging just under 20 shots per game, while they also lead their Premier League rivals for goals scored, big chances and xG.

Despite his premium price tag, Salah hands FPL managers a reliable captain option most weeks, and building your Gameweek 8 Wildcard squad around him is a wise move.

BRYAN MBEUMO

Brentford impress as Arsenal devoid of ideas without attacking stars 2

Despite a testing home fixture against Chelsea in Gameweek 8, Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m) remains one of the most exciting budget midfielders available in FPL.

With Ivan Toney (£6.3m) dropping a little deeper and linking play in Brentford’s 3-5-2 formation, Mbeumo has been tasked with running in behind, and as a result, trumps his team-mate for goal attempts, big chances and xG.

His -1.74 xG delta suggests that he perhaps needs to work on his finishing, but the fact he is getting into good goalscoring positions is of course encouraging.

JACK GREALISH / PHIL FODEN

In an attempt to capitalise on Manchester City’s Gameweek 8 to 10 fixtures, investing in one of their attacking options makes a lot of sense.

However, with uncertainty surrounding Ferran Torres (£6.9m) and Riyad Mahrez‘s (£8.7m) game-time, plus Kevin De Bruyne’s (£11.9m) problematic price tag, team-mate Jack Grealish (£7.9m) may well be the best midfielder on offer.

The England international has now started every Premier League match for City since his £100m move from Aston Villa, and though there will surely be rotation at some stage, right now, he does feel like one of the more secure starters in Pep Guardiola’s XI.

Grealish marked his home debut against Norwich City with a goal and provided an assist in the 5-0 win over Arsenal. He also scored an impressive solo strike on his Champions League bow against RB Leipzig, and despite a fourth successive Premier League blank at Liverpool in Gameweek 7, has contributed significantly.

It’s also worth noting that the former Villa man is top or joint-top among his teammates for chances created, shots in the box, efforts on target, big chances, penalty box touches and expected goal involvement (xGI).

Meanwhile, Phil Foden (£7.9m) is an intriguing alternative, having impressed since his return from injury in Gameweek 6. The England international opened his 2021/22 account with a goal at Anfield, where he slotted in on the left of City’s front three. However, if you do choose to go down this route, ensuring you have a strong first substitute is vital.

RAPHINHA

Raphinha and Bamford both deliver returns as Saint-Maximin steals the Newcastle show 1

Raphinha (£6.6m) has turned in two of his best performances of the season in recent weeks, which included a goal – his third of the campaign – against West Ham United in Gameweek 6.

His -1.81 expected assists (xA) delta suggests that he has been unfortunate not to turn provider this term, and given that Leeds United have some appealing fixtures ahead, the Brazilian looks like an excellent Wildcard option. 

However, his involvement with the Brazil national team should be monitored ahead of deadline, with his country due to take on Uruguay on Friday 15th October, just one day before the Whites visit Southampton in Gameweek 8.

ISMAILA SARR

Sarr underlines differential potential as Chelsea earn another clean sheet 10

Ismaila Sarr (£6.3m) has already netted four Premier League goals this season, and as a result, ranks seventh amongst all midfielders for FPL points (40).

However, there are legitimate concerns around Watford’s attack. Outside of their convincing 3-1 win at Norwich City, they have created just two big chances against Aston Villa (h), Brighton and Hove Albion (a), Tottenham Hotspur (a), Wolverhampton Wanderers (h), Newcastle United (h) and Leeds United (a) combined.

New manager Claudio Ranieri will hope to make an immediate impact, but with a nightmare schedule between now and mid-December, it does feel like Sarr’s appeal is waning.

BUKAYO SAKA / EMILE SMITH ROWE

With ten points from their last four matches and an appealing schedule ahead, Arsenal’s budget midfielders are suddenly on the FPL radar.

Bukayo Saka (£6.3m) and Emile Smith Rowe (£5.4m) claimed season-high hauls in Gameweek 6, which coincided with both players being used in arguably their best positions. Interestingly, that system continued against Brighton and Hove Albion in Gameweek 7, despite losing Granit Xhaka (£4.9m) to injury.

With Martin Ødegaard (£5.5m) installed as a no. 10 in Mikel Arteta’s 4-2-3-1 formation, Smith Rowe has featured on the left, but often drifts infield into more central areas where he can affect the game. On the opposite flank, Saka has generally stayed wider, but has racked up 10 penalty box touches since Gameweek 6.

The best FPL midfielders for a Gameweek 8 Wildcard 7

With fixtures now easing for Arsenal, Saka and Smith Rowe could offer value in midfield.

SON HEUNG-MIN

Buendia assists two Watkins goals as Son shines on pre-season return 1

Despite some worrying performances at Tottenham Hotspur in the opening weeks, Son Heung-min (£10.0m) has continued to produce, netting four goals and 42 FPL points in just six starts.

However, there are wider issues at Spurs. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have scored just six goals in seven Premier League matches, while the underlying numbers – they rank 18th for xG and 17th for goal attempts overall – are concerning.

That being said, they improved against Aston Villa last time out, and if you do feel like investing in one of the best finishers around, Newcastle United (a) does feel like a good fixture to attack.

CONOR GALLAGHER

Zaha and Maupay on target as Brighton earn late draw 4

In another energetic midfield display, Conor Gallagher (£5.7m) bagged an assist in Gameweek 6 after winning a first-half penalty against Brighton and Hove Albion.

The on-loan Chelsea man has now netted two goals and three assists since joining Crystal Palace, and ranks 12th amongst all midfielders for FPL points.

However, it is worth noting that the return of Luka Milivojevic (£5.4m) has meant that he is no longer on set-pieces. Considering that a large chunk of his xA total arrived from dead-ball situations, it is a blow, but he still warrants attention.

Gallagher has been the driving force in Patrick Vieira’s 4-3-3 formation so far this season, regularly breaking forward into the attacking third, which is captured on his 2021/22 touch heatmap:

Fixtures could be better, but with Newcastle United’s shaky defence up next at Selhurst Park, Gallagher remains a decent budget option.

If you are comfortable spending a little more, Wilfried Zaha (£7.0m) is an alternative. The 28-year-olds appeal has been given a boost having taken on penalty duties, though it is questionable whether he offers enough consistency to truly stake a claim.

DOUGLAS LUIZ

If using a 3-4-3, 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 formation on your Wildcard, it’s highly likely that you’ll be on the lookout for a budget midfielder. And while Yves Bissouma (£4.6m) and Allan (£4.6m) are two of the more popular options right now, Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz (£4.6m) has emerged as a viable alternative in recent matches.

Key to that has been a system change at Villa, which has seen Dean Smith line his troops up in a 5-3-2 / 3-5-2 shape. That has meant that the shackles are off central midfield pair Luiz and John McGinn (£5.8m), who no longer have as many defensive responsibilities with a back three stationed behind them.

Encouragingly, the Brazilian international’s creative numbers are on the up since Gameweek 4, as he ranks second amongst all midfielders for chances created and 10th for xA.

Having started 32 matches for Villa last term, his place in the starting XI is fairly secure and he should at least offer appearance points, with the potential for a few assists along the way. However, like Raphinha, his involvement with the Brazil national team should be monitored, as he may miss out in Gameweek 8.

ALSO CONSIDER…

In addition to the names detailed above, there are others who deserve a mention, too.

Mason Mount (£7.4m) is a nice mid-price option who has goal and assist potential, with the latter boosted by his share of set-pieces. You’d expect him to produce a steady stream of attacking returns in the coming weeks given Chelsea’s fixtures, and with his ownership down to just 8.7%, he could prove to be a clever addition. 

Elsewhere, despite back-to-back blanks, Said Benrahma (£6.6m) remains a good option. However, the fixtures are turning for the worse for the Hammers, especially when paired with a demanding UEFA Europa League campaign, which is worth factoring in when considering their assets.

With Southampton’s fixtures easing, Stuart Armstrong (£5.8m) is an interesting differential. The 29-year-old chipped in with four goals and seven assists last term, and despite missing the first seven rounds, will probably feature for Scotland during the international break as he attempts to build-up his fitness.

Sadio Mane (£11.9m) has now provided either a goal or assist in five of his last six matches, and ranks second amongst all midfielders – only behind Salah – for goal attempts, shots in the box, big chances and xG.

Staying with Liverpool, the return of Roberto Firmino (£8.8m) from injury means that owners of Diogo Jota (£7.6m) will surely have to get used to rotation, but he has proven before that he can still deliver off of limited minutes. It does make him a tricky ‘buy’ though, especially as he also has a muscle problem, and if predicting Klopp’s XI isn’t your thing, Demarai Gray (£5.8m) – the ninth highest-scoring midfielder in FPL – might be worth a punt. Abdoulaye Doucoure (£5.7m) and Andros Townsend (£5.6m) are alternative options at Everton, but it does perhaps feel like he is the Toffee with the most potential.

Demarai Gray v Andros Townsend v Abdoulaye Doucoure goal threat stats 2021/22

Before we finish up, there has been one glaring omission on this list: last season’s top scoring FPL asset, Bruno Fernandes (£11.8m). However, despite the fact that he could still be on penalties, he has registered just five shots in the box since Cristiano Ronaldo’s (£12.6m) arrival, and that makes it hard to justify the outlay. Manchester United’s fixtures also stiffen considerably over the next two months, leaving them bottom of our Season Ticker. Given that fixture swing, now may be a good time to hop off the likes of Mason Greenwood (£7.6m) and Paul Pogba (£7.7m), rather than bring them in on a Wildcard.

      Ha! I've been thinking the exact same today about my current WC! One of the main reasons I WC'd was to get Torres out, and today I've put him back in, lol!

    Hi....is anyone considering reece James as a wildcard option?

    He is back in training and surely less competion for the RWB role than on the left

    Only concern is if he is eased back this weekend, with raphinha likely to be missing I'll be starting my 2 subs...both of whom have decent fixtures actually- Duffy (Norwich) and livra (leeds)

    Thanks

      More than considering. If Tuchel gives him the all-clear in the presser he goes straight in my team.

      Save 0.2m on Rudiger, more attacking. It's perfect.

    2. Hy liverpool

      o/

    3. Haa-lala-land
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      James is the Chelsea defender that interests me the least. He's got a good chance of getting subbed on in the second half for a one pointer. I genuinely don't think TT sees him as first choice if everyone at Chelsea is fit.

      1. Tempestic
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Lukakus looked very isolated. Lack of supply. Supply that Reece James will provide

      2. I Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Why don't you think Tuchel sees him as first choice? James RWB and Azpi RCB in their best team imo.

        1. Haa-lala-land
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I seem to remember it was around this time last season, or maybe later when TT started. Everyone including me thought RJ would be gold FPL, but then he fizzled out. To be fair, it seems like Hudson Odoi has slipped further down. I hope I'm wrong because RJ would be a great value fpl'er, but I think TT would rather play Azpi RWB and then three from the plethora of CBs, and importantly that includes Chabolah. We will see against Brentford, but I anticipate Chabolah and Azpi to start.
          I also think Werner will be better value than Lukaku over Chelsea's next for, so make of that what you will, lol!

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

        Funny because I like him the most. His crossing ability is needed for Lukaku. They look better with him in the team and especially against these weaker teams where he can attack more freely.

        I think I read somewhere that James was benched that one game because of the robbery and not because he did anything wrong. Started vs City and got injured and Chelsea lost both that game and the one he didn't play in.

        I think if fit, he starts and he offers a ton of attacking threat.

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

      I'm going there. Upside worth it. And with Duffy and Livramento to cover benchings I see it being a worthwhile punt given the naildness of my attackers

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

      Nah, would rather save the pain of getting James.

      Chalobah, Silva and Christesen the 3 CB's with Azpi and James at RWB if Rudiger is injured. If Rudiger is fit for GW8 then it is just going to make things more of an headache.

      Just too much of the unknown with CHE defence.

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

        *Azpi or James*

      2. I Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        So you're going without Chelsea defence? They can all be rotated. Rudiger probably the safest but James has so much more attacking threat.

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

          He's going without any Chelsea.

          Honestly, I think that says a lot....

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

            Why does it say alot when Tuchel may just be worse than Pep?

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

              I think it says a lot about how you play. Not picking any Chelsea and barely any City is a very conservative approach.

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

                I am sorry, but suggesting that going without CHE is conservative?

                I would rather double up on Cancelo and Dias. City defence is where the points are. These two will hardly be on the bench.

                Rudiger does not even have a high ceiling and that is the go to CHE defender.

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

                  It is extremely conservative to go without Chelsea because of rotation when their fixtures are bre NOR new BUR. I don't think that's debatable to be honest....

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

                    Which will have more points end of the season?

                    Trent, Dias and Cancelo

                    Or

                    Trent, Rudiger and *take your pick rotation*

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

                      This is not how FPL works. You pick players for certain runs of fixtures. We're not building ghost ships.

                      Rudiger + James + 1M is better for the next 4 weeks than Dias + Cancelo.

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

                        It depends what you do with the 1m.

                        FPL can work in many ways. If a player is blanking 3 weeks plus for instance, taking up a large portion of your cash, is flagged and you hang onto him, it is bound to hurt your rank if he does not feature.

                        Just like having both Ron and Rom and both blanking two weeks in a row. It fecks your rank properly. Ron being benched for Cavani etc.

                        Then you need to make a decision of what is best for your squad.

                        I guess the CHE defence is another case of *you are dead if you go no City* or something like that. It is not so.

                2 years, 5 months ago

                Looking at ownership trends minimal Chelsea and City is radical as opposed to conservative.

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

                  Rotation = radical?

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

                    🙂

                    See comment below. Radical to be interpreted as going against current FFS orthodoxy.

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

          Yes, no CHE over here.

          Have Cancelo and Trent. Might double up on Dias.

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

            Well I'll definitely have 1 Chelsea defender

            Whether it is rudiger, chilwell or James will prob be a very last minute decision!!

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

            Very decent call that imo

            The form in defence all points towards City over Chelsea where the underlying stats are way down on expectations. Also worth noting the spate of defensive goals at Chelsea which seems an unlikely trend to continue.

            Working on the assumption here that premium defence is not generally a short term fixture call but a midterm call

    Ladies and gentlemen, what do you say?

    Ramsdale / Foster
    TAA / Cancelo / Rüdiger / Livramento / _________
    Salah / Raphinha / Zaha / Luiz / _________
    Lukaku / Antonio _________

    A. Dias, Townsend (or Mbeumo), Toney (4-3-3 or 4-4-2 depending on fixtures)
    B. Duffy, Townsend (or Mbeumo), Jesus (or Jiménez) (3-4-3)
    C. Dias, Brownhill, Jiménez (4-3-3)

    1. Y26 Royal
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      You've already got 3 big hitters in defence so i'd say B with Mbeumo

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

        Thank you for this! Jimi upfront? Cheers!

        1. Y26 Royal
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Either of those upfront really. I'd sway towards Jimi but that's because Jesus trolled me this season!

          1. sirmorbach

    Hwang or Toney long term?

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Toney long term I would say.

    2. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Toney

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Toney has a fixture swing in GW10, so probably him in the long term.

      Unanimous! Thanks chaps

      Toney long term. Im looking at Hwang for next 2 on WC before moving to Ivan.

    2 years, 5 months ago

    Thinking it's not a bad season to go with non-nailed picks, considering the potential of some of the lower priced assets.

    No real issue playing Duffy/Livra etc. Latest WC draft:

    Ramsdale Foster

    TAA Cancelo James Duffy Livra

    Salah Son Torres Mbeumo Luiz

    Lukaku Antonio Hwang

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Torres a bit risky

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

      Raphinha, Armstrong vs Torres, Hwang the only difference from mine

    3. I Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I'd steer clear of Torres. The rest looks good.

  11. caldracula
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    McCarthy
    TAA Cancelo Rudiger
    Salah Son Gallagher Gray Raphina
    Lukaku Antonio

    (Foster, Livra, Ayling, Scarlett)

    0 ITB + 0FT.

    Only one playing sub is a bit worrying but should be ok with this.

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

    Maguire AND Varane out for the weekend now... Vardy will probably have a party.

    1. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Bring your vodka and your…

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

      I don't think he will. Might score one goal though so could have a soirée.

      1. JBG
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Haha.. a soirée. Good one.

  13. Gunners in Haaland
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone going with Werner instead of Kaku?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I am, but from next GW

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

      I will probably bring him in or Vardy if Lukaku is out.

    3. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No

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

      I'm assessing them both this GW. If Werner scores against Brentford I will consider him for the Norwich game.

  14. Weak Become Heros
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Do we foresee any double risers over this international break?

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

      Very unlikely

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Cancelo the best chance but 50/50 at best.

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yep, very slow. Was hoping to nick a double rise out of Townsend but looking very unlikely now.

        1. bitm2007
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Townsends only the joint 5th faster riser per hour according to Fix at 0.2% per hour, that will speed up closer to the time but he still has a long way to go (on 28.2% according to Fix, 27.4 of statistics) so can't see him making it until after the GW deadline.

  15. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who would you say is a better long term pick - Grealish or Foden?

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

      Neither

    2. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Neither long term. Short term I am leaning towards Phil. 3 gameweeks then out. I reckon he starts 2.

  16. Eman47
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Currently have Grealish/ASM

    A) keep
    B) transfer to son/hwang
    C transfer to son/Armstrong
    D) keep ASM, drop sarr/grealish to son/ESR

  17. tvz32
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Would you rather have
    A) TAA + White
    B) Dias + Chilwell

    My other defenders are Cancelo, Rudi and Livra

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

      A

      1. tvz32
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Not tempted by double City and double Chelsea def?

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A

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

      A

    4. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No need for TAA w your other good defenders.

    5. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B for the fixtures.

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

    On WC

    1. Azpilicueta or Rudiger
    2. Duffy or White(have ramsdale)

    1. jackruet
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Azpi, duffy

    2. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Azpi & Duffy

    3. Haa-lala-land
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Lamptey in place of Duffy, it's only a matter of time.

  19. jackruet
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Good to see FPL hype is back

    1. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It’ll all die down again in a few weeks when we get ANOTHER international break. 🙁

      1. jackruet
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        i Just hate IB

        1. jackruet
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          But love euro and world cup lol

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

      Yeah, the news of Trent being available has thrown the cat among the pigeons 🙂

      1. El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I love that sentence!!

  20. It's his Job.
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ola!
    I'm looking for a little advise on wHethersett I need to make changes or cancellations I roll for now.

    Sanchez
    Alonso Dias Rudiger TAA
    Gray Benrahma Salah Greenwood
    Antonio Lukaku

    Foster/Dennis/Liveramento/Sarr
    1FT OK. 0.8 itb

    1. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I think you're good. Maybe Greenwood to Foden/Grealish

      1. It's his Job.
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Many thanks and good luck to you.

  21. El Presidente
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Teemo Pukki, what a performance

    1. jackruet
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      What game

      1. El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        For Finland. He could have easily scored plus 3 on top of that brace

  22. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Just seen news TAA should be ok. That is good.

    1. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Ready to punish the sellers!!

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

      Is it possible for TAA to drop?

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I highly doubt

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

        Nope. He already dropped this GW and he's not injured now.

  23. Geordie19
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    White and Foden/Grealish/Torres
    Or
    Dias and ESR

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

    Hwang just blanked against Iran. Out.

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

      Hwang out, Pukki in 🙂

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Saving his goals for the Villa match. 😀

  25. Bleh
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Best Jota replacement if confirmed out?

    A. Raphinha
    B. Son
    C. Grealish/Foden

    1. RaptorRice86
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Im plumping for Foden. Already have Raph.

  26. Ci Siamo
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Is it madness to now ditch Ronaldo to get Son and pump my squad up

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      What do you think we've been doing for the last 10 days? 😀

  27. The Train Driver
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    South Koreans not very imaginative when it comes to their surnames, are they?

    4 Kims, 3 Hwangs and 3 Lees just in the national team.

  28. Y26 Royal
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Which one?
    A: TAA, Livramento and Son
    B: TAA, Azpilicueta and Foden

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

      A

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A

  29. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Already used FT and 0.0itb. Anything here worth a hit? United assets out maybe?

    Sanchez, Foster
    Alonso, Rudiger, Cancelo, Livra, Shaw
    Salah, Greenwood, Benrahma, Raphinha, Bissouma*
    Toney, Antonio, Ronaldo

    *Bissouma is third bench anyway, so not really worried about his spot at the moment,

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

    Why/how did Liverpool lose 3-0 to Watford last season?

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

      Because Sarr scored goals

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

        not last season, was it?

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

          You're right. The season before. I didn't watch the game so trying to figure out how Liverpool conceded 3 goals and weren't able to score one goal even though they had their strongest team playing.

          I am going to stick Sarr in my starting lineup over Rudiger. Debating on my captain choice too.

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

            Sarr will be in my starting 11 too - and Salah will probably be my captain again 🙂 Good luck with Sarr, hope he will play a good game again!

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

              Fingers crossed. Good luck to you too!
