    Any Prem League games in doubt due to adverse weather conditions?

      Nope all good. Lost of scaremongering going on yesterday

    Help! 2 ft

    Foster (McCarthy)
    Taa cancello amartey (livra, coufal)
    Salah jota benrahma gray (bissouma)
    Toney Antonio ronaldo

    A) ronaldo + gray > jiminez + Bernardo (funds for coufal to James next week)
    B) coufal + gray > lamptey + ESR

    1. tractorjess

      Can you do gray to city mid?

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

        No only 0.9 inb

  3. tractorjess

    2 years, 5 months ago

    Tempted by vardy to auba?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Nope

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

    Bench is Armstrong, Livra, Brownhill, not too strong if Foden doesnt play. Should I consider doing Armstrong to someone?

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

    Mbeumo has two returns in 12? Why does he have such a following?

    1. space mercenary
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Still dining out on Xg + Xa.
      Owner here.

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

      Mark

      The kid was as obvious an all fart no poo player as you'll ever see but he sucked everyone in with stats and position

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

        It's like a fashion accessory everyone should have in their midfield. 😀

    3. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He hit the post a lot.
      I mean, its not a goal, and plenty of players miss by an inch, not sure why they consider post shot so much better than one that just misses.

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

      He has been unlucky. 7 times he’s hit the woodwork

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Loads of reasons tbh

  6. Pacer.
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    weather in the north is so utterly appalling that I can't see much in the way of big returns. reckon there's going to be a lot of 'keeping busy' but not actually doing much. Just did a ten minute walk to shop and nearly perished.

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

      Which part?

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Are you southern?

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

        What, me? Yes, if so.

    3. Stamford B
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Best to switch captains to a southern playing team do you think?

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

        I do wonder if it even goes ahead if Salah will get rested. I went with Salah with VC on Gallagher

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

      Luckily they’re playing football and not going to the shops.

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

        they may be playing football. logistical disruption might put pay to that, though my money is on it going ahead.

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

          There’s is zero chance any game is called off

  7. space mercenary
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ok, 5 to go. Time to start an unfounded panic benching rumour...

  8. Ange Ball
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Who to play

    A) Amartey (Watford)

    B) Joelinton ( Arsenal )

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

      I heard Joelinton being bigged up on FFS blog so I’m going him

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Joelinton I think

      1. Ange Ball
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        cheers both you hope green arrows for you both

  9. Norco

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

    2. DycheDycheBaby

    5. Not again Shirley
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Well that’s a mad question. Of course they can score. The game is 90 minutes. They will deffo get a few chances. Just a matter of whether they take any of their chances.

  18. DycheDycheBaby
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Duffy to Alonso done. Now see him get benched.. 😀

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

      Okay I shall

    2. space mercenary
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Good move. I did Duffy to James. I will do Chilwell to Alonso this week.

  19. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Townsend -4 to galla/mora or start white/antonio ? Quick plz

    1. Not again Shirley
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      lol the way FF goes, Townsend will score this game week. He’s only playing BRE.

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

      Townsend is the main man in this Everton setup with DCL and Richa out

  20. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Start 1:

    A) White

    B) Wilson

  21. andre_c
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    hold Armstrong?

  22. Not again Shirley
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Play Raphina or Wilson?

    Initially went with Raph but now thinking the latter even though he killed me last week.

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

      I think Wilson

  23. Zimo
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    My penisprematurely out

  24. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ramsdale and Tomiyasu.

    Cert newcastle score in opening 15 mins.

    FFScout comment section > FPL twitter.

    There, I said it.

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

      Anything is better than Twitter

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

        Yeah. In 100 years we’ll look back on it and think «wow, to believe that we thought giving everyone their own microphone was a good idea»

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

      Vastly different from the early years. It's a shame. There are some gems from time to time but it really has become RMT central and repeat posters who take and don't contribute.

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

        Yeah, agree. It’s good to see people with experience and pedigree hanging around here! FPL twitter is mostly people who have finished «top 1% last season» or something and contribute to the noise by providing advice and «hot» takes. Some great contributers, but lots of annoying affect-laden tweets

        1. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I refuse to contribute to 'choose my players for me' posts, thus I skim past hundreds looking for someone that has a point to discuss. Over the weeks these have become fewer and fewer, I must admit.

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

            Yeah, very understandable mate!

      I took a hit at 10:54...not sure if it was clever or not

    3. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Same. I had a mins 8 planned; in the end just Chilwell to Alonso.

  28. tbos83

    I've captained Kane. So help me god.

    1. Zimo

      Loving your Kahunas. (That sounds wrong).
      I hope it pays off as the Salah permacaptain is getting a bit dull. Wishing I did Mane last week.

  29. Pat Bonner

    Times up! All the best for the gw folks.
