    What to do with esr and foden?

    1. The Pesci challenge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Bench ESR and get rid of foden

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Whats up with Foden?

        1. dshv
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Not a starter … 8mil..

          1. Weak Become Heros
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Got minutes at least. Hopefully learnt his lesson!

    2. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Hold both. If Foden doesn't start next game, bin him.

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’d sell Foden for someone who plays.

    4. Patio Kev
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’m bringing Foden in next GW, him and Jack are nailed on to start.

  2. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Does the Wolves game cancellation make Man U vs Wolves in GW 21 doubtful?

  3. Jammy Dodger
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    What to do with this for next week with Arsenal blank..

    Ederson | Steele
    TAA Cancelo Davies Alonso | Tierney
    Jota Mount Son Silva | ESR
    Lacazette* Antonio | Scarlett

    I am currently ranked 10k overall with 1ft and 2.3m to spend.

    Thinking of:
    Silva > Salah
    Laca > Broja

    Or I could just still go without salah with AFCON looming and go Laca > DCL?

    Thanks!

    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    For next gw, which one to bench from this front 8

    Galla Jota Bowen Foden Bernardo
    Ronaldo Antonio Laca

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No game Laca.

      1. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Oh nvm then decision made

  6. Weak Become Heros
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    How did Bilva look today?

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Was very much involved in the celebrations.

      1. Weak Become Heros
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        🙁

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Portuguese

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Annoying.

    4. Noisy Neighbour
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Like he didn’t own himself in FPL.

  7. Athletico Underachieving
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    So already have no GK for next GW (Ramsdale and Foster owner) and also own Laca. This is a riiiight pain

    1. dshv
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Ramsdale will not play for me too

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Some have those 3 and an Arsenal mid/def.

      1. Athletico Underachieving
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        True that!

  8. dshv
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Watkins esr ramsdale will not play for me.. have 2ft what to do?

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      make transfers.

  9. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is it worth it to do Ramsdale to DDG/Llloris for a ft?

    1. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Echo in here. 🙂

      I like it myself but always wary on GK transfers.

    2. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I'll do it.

    3. syke63
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Jeez no

      1. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        why not? Better and more fixtures for both of them and looking decent defensively?

  10. Weak Become Heros
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale to DDG?

  11. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sooooooo Saving my 1st wild card as late as possible has definitely not worked out…

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’d rather have it than not have it lol

  12. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    With a blank followed by City and then Spurs away, it could be time to sell Ramsdale. I have limited funds so looking at either Pickford or Butland.

    1. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. DDG not a look?

    2. Fish up a tree
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking of just going with 2 decent keepers so Ramsdale & DDG.

      Arsenal now have 3 DGW to come plus 2 BGW (25 & 27) & Utd 2 DGW weeks so could rotate nicely & cover for games being pulled

  13. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Playing my first WC. Rate my squad if you please... Yes I know Pep Roulette is a risk but City assets can come off the bench and score when the opposition have been run ragged.

    DDG - Bachman
    TAA - Cancelo - Tierney - Dier - Coady
    KDB - Sterling - Son - Saka - Odegard
    Antonio - King - Broja

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Dang. Just saw that Arsenal Wolves is off

  14. Free Hat
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    At least dont have to worry about another ESR goal next gw

  15. Firminooooo
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is Dennis gone to AFCON? Watkins, Targett, Ramsdale, Martinelli and Saka no game next GW.

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Dennis should play next 2

  16. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    27 [-8], not FH has absolutely killed my rank

  17. waltzingmatildas
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale and Guaita owner, 1ft, 0.2itb
    A) Ramsdale to DDG
    B) Guaita to sanchez (has Chelsea)
    C) go without a gk?

    1. Goooo Rickie
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      You never know, Guaita might play.

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Thought Pope might be a decent shout with all the fixtures he’s got to catch up on but he’s still 5.4m lol
    Price changes don’t work very well for overpriced players with low initial ownership!

    1. Marty McFly
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Burnley defender might be the option

  19. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Lacazette + ESR + Ramsdale ➡ Antonio + Gallagher + DDG for -8 is probably the easiest hit I will ever take this season. Gives me -

    DDG
    TAA - Cancelo - James
    Son - Foden - Bernardo - Jota - Gallagher
    Antonio - Wilson

    Foster - Livramento - Manquillo - Watkins

    Thoughts? 🙂

    1. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I would prob just do the two and leave ESR until next week not sure it’s worth a -4

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        And play who from my bench?

        Livramento (TOT)

        ESR doesn’t have a game this gw

    2. Ruinenlust
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No Salah?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Got rid this gw

        He’s a gf to AFCON

        No point getting him back for Leicester

  20. Philosopher's Stones
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Rise of the Jamaican king next week at the cost of Laca. Good move you think?

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I’m doing that Move as well

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Possibly there isn’t too many forward options at present

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Think about what will happen and why, not what you want to happen. Nothing points to an Antonio resurgance

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        This is so f true

  21. Feed tha Sheep
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you rather get in Jota or Son?

    1. Marty McFly
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Jota

  22. I Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed on previous page.

    If you played FH how would you feel about a 13 point gain + Dalot and having Salah for Leicester?

    1. syke63
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If you got a green instead of a red you should be happy

  23. syke63
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal blank in gw20, 25, 27 plus City home and Tót away is going to lead to a lot of sales

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Think Ramsdale has to go

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yurp

    3. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

      I’m getting rid. The whole lot of them

      Best gw to ditch when they can’t hurt you

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah nice week to jump off for Lloris who has about 400 games to be rescheduled.

    5. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Blanks in 25 and 27?

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        25 - Chelsea CWC.

        27 - Carabao Final for one of them or Liverpool, could still happen that midweek if both don't make FAC 5th round.

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          I hadnt worked out that it wasnt just chelsea blanking

  24. Pukki Party
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    With all this chaos i have a better chance of winning FPL, right?

    #positivepukki

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Take care, mate. You'll beat the corona.

  25. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Suppose a Toney brace is a bit too much to ask

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No I think that’s perfectly reasonable

  26. WVA
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Looool Sanchez (Postponed) to DDG (Postponed) to Ramsdale (Postponed) back to DDG?

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Postponed

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Don’t think keepers are worth making moves on (hence why I have Guaita).
      So many goals this time of year as well

    3. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I could suggest having two playing keepers but i have Guaita and Ramsdale lol

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        This lol

    4. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Who you buying next mate? I’ll avoid like the plague

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        DDG I think

  27. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso
    Jota Son Bilva Foden Bowen
    Ronaldo

    Foster King Livramento Davis

    1FT, 0.3itb

    1. Save FT (and go without Salah)
    2. Bilva Ronaldo >> Salah ASM

    Thoughts appreciate, thanks!

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      See how Ronaldo does. Maybe get a playing GK

      1. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Have exact funds to do Ramsdale >> DDG ?

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          Give it a day

  28. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is the arsenal game off v wolves.

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

    2. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    3. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

  29. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Benching Bernardo next gw before selling. Arsenal game off scuppered my plans.

  30. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Thinking about wildcarding GW21 due to some changes in fixtures and DGWs. Or just stick with initial plan and FH on 21/22?

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      We don't even know if there are going to be fixture chances, or DGW's yet.
