Suspensions

Which FPL players are suspended or nearing a one-match ban?

We’re bringing you another Suspension Tightrope article as Gameweek 20 hurtles into view, with the yellow cards steadily racking up for numerous Premier League players and the threat of a one-match ban looming.

There are a grand total of 32 Fantasy Premier League assets (FPL) who are now just one booking away from a ban, while three players are red-flagged as a consequence of picking up their fifth cautions of the campaign on Boxing Day.

The yellow card amnesty is not until after the completion of a team’s 19th league fixture (more on that later), after which the threshold moves up from five to ten bookings.

CURRENTLY SUSPENDED

Christian Norgaard (£5.0m), Tyrone Mings (£5.0m) and Declan Rice (£5.1m) all reached the unwanted target of five yellow cards on Boxing Day and will miss their sides’ next match – in the case of Mings, that will be Gameweek 21.

Andrew Robertson (£7.1m) will sit out Gameweeks 20 and 21 as a result of his red card against Tottenham Hotspur a week ago, while Wilfried Zaha (£6.8m) won’t be involved in Gameweek 20 after being dismissed for two bookings in the defeat to Spurs on Sunday.

ON FOUR YELLOW CARDS

Of the notable names in the above list, Conor Gallagher (£6.1m) has one more match to negotiate until the threat of a one-match ban passes, while Bruno Fernandes (£11.6m) and Raphinha (£6.5m) won’t be in the clear until Gameweek 21 has been and gone – assuming there are no more postponements, of course.

Callum Wilson (£7.4m) and Javier Manquillo (£3.9m) will have seen off any danger if they avoid a booking tonight.

Again, there’s more on cut-off dates in the bottom section.

SAFE FROM A ONE-MATCH BAN

Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City fulfilled their 19th league fixture on Boxing so a handful of big names sitting on four yellow cards, namely Marcos Alonso (£5.7m), Reece James (£6.4m), Bernardo Silva (£7.6m) and Ruben Dias (£6.2m), are now in the clear.

Rodri (£5.5m) and Albert Sambi Lokonga (£4.7m) are also now out of danger.

ON THREE YELLOW CARDS

There’s less to sweat about if your player is on three bookings: some are already in the clear (assets from Arsenal, Chelsea, City, Liverpool, West Ham, Wolves, Villa, Southampton, Palace, Leeds, Newcastle and Norwich), while others just have to avoid picking up two bookings in as many Gameweeks.

There are 21 players in total on the above list of players still at risk but owners of Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.5m), Ivan Toney (£6.6m) and Demarai Gray (£5.5m) are unlikely to be losing any sleep over their current disciplinary statuses.

WHEN ARE THE CUT-OFF POINTS FOR SUSPENSIONS?

As mentioned in the introduction, the yellow card threshold is raised to ten after a team’s 19th league fixture.

That is not to be confused with Gameweek 19: due to the raft of postponements over the last month, only four teams have fulfilled or will fulfill their 19th league fixture in the current round of matches.

A club-by-club rundown is below (clubs in italics have already played their 19th match):

Club19th League Fixture (as things stand)
ArsenalGW19
Aston VillaGW21
BrentfordGW21
BrightonGW21
BurnleyGW23
ChelseaGW19
Crystal PalaceGW20
EvertonGW21
LeedsGW21
LeicesterGW21
LiverpoolGW20
Man CityGW19
Man UtdGW21
NewcastleGW19
NorwichGW20
SouthamptonGW20
SpursGW22
WatfordGW22
West HamGW20
WolvesGW21

The threshold for ten yellow cards is after 32 league matches, which will be April at the earliest.

Players collecting ten bookings before that point will serve a two-game ban.

Punishments for yellow card accumulation are competition-specific, whereas suspensions for dismissals cover all competitive matches.

      Are you asking which to bench?

      1. Mozumbus
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        That sounds more like a wish 😀

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

      A, but only if you dont have TAA. So would sell him for a hit I guess. Would probably look at Tomiyasu

    6. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Bench Salah

      1. Mozumbus
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        What did you assume? 😀

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

    What to do?

    A) ESR to Benrahma
    B) Saka to Tielemans
    C) ESR, Saka to Benrahma, Bowen (-4)
    D) hold FT and play 10 players

    1. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years

      Saka > Bowen?

      As far as I know Burnley are covid free.

      Touch wood.

    Why arent Guaita playing? Covid or?

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Frustratingly I can’t find any confirmation.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Possibly damaged finger.

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Didn't make the bench yesterday. Made the bench for the Soton game. I think it's likely he has covid

  7. Marty McFly
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    This worth -8?

    Triple Arsenal > DDG, Maddison, Vardy

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I've got a feeling Vardy is still nursing the injury from the cup game

    2. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      No if you ask me. Dont trust lei, seems like a waste of transfers

  8. Tinmen
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Folks, is it worth -4 to swap Laca to Antonio? Or leave team as is

    De Gea
    Cancelo Rudiger Trent Livra
    Son Jota Bernardo Gallagher
    King Ronaldo

    Foster Williams Laca Saka

    1. Tinmen
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I feel Bernardo won’t start

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      -4? Have you already used your FT?

      1. Tinmen
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I will be using FT for Ramsdale to De Gea

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I would take the hit. Surprised you have already used your FT

  9. Philosopher's Stones
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    The transfer conundrum:

    Make your moves early, the game gets postponed. Make your moves late, the site crashes

    Christopher Nolan could make a decent movie out of this 😀

    1. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Make the transfer about 15-20mins before deadline is the new safest way - although it still backfired when I brought in Watkins 2GW’s ago

    2. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Because making something disappear is not enough. You need to bring it back…

    3. Hangman Page
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yesterday I activated my free hit at 1pm and had no issues. Had in the back of my mind a crash happening, so got quite lucky. Any later and would’ve been about 40 points worse off!

  10. Tonyawesome69
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    I'm interested to know what you would do with this team with 0ITB

    1FT 0ITB
    Ramsdale*
    Cancelo James Alonso TAA
    Bernardo Gallagher Foden Salah Jota
    Antonio
    (Foster King Livramento Watkins*)

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Can you afford De gea in for Ramsdale?

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Unfortunately no. Ramsdale SP is 4.8m

    2. Ray Kinsella
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      great team. i'd sell a striker and a mid to get ronaldo plus bench warmer. if you're really bold, sell salah to do the same, though leicester look awful so maybe not this week!

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        No chance I'm selling Salah this GW.

        It'll have to be a - 8 to get Ronaldo in. Not enough to do it in 2 moves with Watkins and Foden/Bernardo

    3. Kabayan
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Sell Ramsdale or save FT

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers. Can't upgrade Ramsdale (SP is 4.8m) so DDG or Lloris so would have to be a - 4

  11. cescpistols111
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    What changes would you make to this team? 1FT, 1.6 ITB.

    Would you FH for GW20?

    DDG Sanchez
    TAA Cancelo Rudiger White Johnson
    Son Jota BSilva Bowen Brownhill
    Ronaldo Watkins Davis

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Seems like you are FHing just for Salah.

  12. HollywoodXI
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Ramsdale to (A) DDG or (B) Lloris

    1. Gooner97
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Keep Ramsdale, sell your second goalie

      1. Hangman Page
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Aye this is my plan.

      2. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        For who when most have Foster? Surely don't want a DDG or Lloris alongside Ramsdale

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

        I agree, even though I will have to fund it by selling Bernardo for -4. I am not too happy about this situation because I can afford basically only Sanchez if I get Bowen.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      B

  13. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Need some good advice here...so yesterday I've done Salah to Son. Have 2ft and 2fh chips and now dont know what to do. Already have 11 players so no point in playing fh for this week and plan was to bring back Mo after afcon anyways but that Lei defence is making me nervous...what would your transfers be in this situation? Should I bring Mo back or just bite the bullet and cpt Jota? Also like all starting 11 games this week so what other transfer would you do here?

    DDG
    TAA Rudi Cancelo
    Son Jota Bilva Bowen
    CR7 Broja Dennis

    3.9. White Tierney D. Luiz

    2ft, 2.3itb

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

      Mo back with 2 ft:s imo

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        But that feels like such a waste, would rather play fh then have to do all over again next week with transfering him out. Know the risks but just cant decide, if any more games are postponed that would actually make things easier for me. Just for info who would you take out for Mo then?

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

          Bilva, since he is going to be rested now imo. FH is not bad idea, but pity that you would waste one ft. I played my ft yesterday to have Salah ready in my team. With hindsight everything is always so easy

          1. iL PiStOlErO
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 3 months ago

            Will definitively think about it. Cheers and good job on your Mo move.

    2. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      How do you have 2 free hit chips?

      1. Stockport Hatter
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        To add have we had one added? I’ve been really busy over Christmas and not been on much

        1. iL PiStOlErO
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          I mean in general. Will have second one like all and still didnt use first one.

  14. SKENG
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    RAMSDALE
    Trent Cancelo Alonso Williams
    Son Jota Foden Bowen
    Ronaldo Broja

    FOSTER LACAZETTE MBEUMO TIERNEY

    Currently on 10 players 1 FT 0.6m ITB. Thinking of taking a hit so that I avoid playing Williams... maybe Lacazette & Ramsdale > Jesus & DDG? Jesus can be any forward up to 8.7 but I think he starts next game and tempted to take risk it.

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ramsdale to DDG yes but I'm not keen on Jesus, he's a transfer waiting to happen and we can't spare them at this time.

  15. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Having picked up 10 points from Mahrez on WC is he a hold or sell ? I need him to start to get 10/11 starting

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Sell

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

      Sell imo

    3. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      He's gone for AFCON in 2 GW

      1. El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        And Algeria is current holders of the trophy and have a really strong squad, they will go far on the competition, he will miss 3 GWs for sure

        1. Rassi
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          2 likely, 3 possible but unlikely.

          1. El Presidente
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 3 months ago

            I think if they make it to semis it's very likely it will be 3. Pep is not going to bring him in with a few days back for sure.

            1. Rassi
              • 9 Years
              2 years, 3 months ago

              Semis are played Feb 2nd and 3rd, City gw24 match is on 9th.

              1. Rassi
                • 9 Years
                2 years, 3 months ago

                But do they play for the 3rd place in AFCON? Hmmm...

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Difficult to call Pep roulette. I think I would move him out for someone more nailed. Factor in he'll be away for AFCON which makes the decision easier

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks- any City mid you would choose- Bernardo or Foden or look elsewhere?

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Foden is the ideal pick from city but no idea if the situation is done and dusted.

          I would probably look elsewhere.

          1. BobB
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 3 months ago

            Can't see past Bernardo for City. Hate expensive assets warming my bench.

            1. Tonyawesome69
              • 5 Years
              2 years, 3 months ago

              I wouldn't bring in Bernardo now. City have scored 17 goals in the last 3 games and he has no returns

              1. BobB
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 14 Years
                2 years, 3 months ago

                I look beyond three games - he has continued to create chances. Others have come to the party but Bernardo is having a great season.

                1. Toonmad
                  • 8 Years
                  2 years, 3 months ago

                  This and the way to play citeh mids is just hold and forget. They all scored pretty similar last season and I bet there will not be much difference between silva, Gundo, Foden at the end of the season. You don't chase City mids

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

      Sell when you’re up and with Afcon coming

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

      I'd hold until he goes, Jesus is out of favour amongst a few others and if there's any sniff of Mahrez holding his place for a few games and I had him I'd never consider getting rid

  16. El Presidente
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    NEW vs MAN still on?

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ooooh its oooon baby

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Better be!

  17. Gooner97
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    James Maddison has 4 double digit hauls in his last 5 games taking 53 points (4G 5A 9B) in the process. He has NOR (H) and BUR (A) after Liverpool.

    Would you get him?

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, for Bilva and then he won't return again

      1. Gooner97
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Foden and BSilva are killing me...

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

          With Alonso and James, yes. At least I was able to ditch them yesterday with FH. Bilva probably first out, then Foden.

            Against BRE tho, probably I'll keep both for one last time

      2. iL PiStOlErO

        This. Biggest troller in the game

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years

      Yeah I would

      1. Eastman

      I recall Madison having streaks like this every season. He is inform right now so maybe worth it until the form drops off.

    Interested to know what you would do with this team

    Ramsdale*
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso Reguilon
    Salah Jota Foden Bernardo
    Wilson
    Foster Watkins* Martinelli* Locadia
    1 FT 1.7 ITB

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ramsdale to DDG?

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah that is the sensible move.
        Although I'm having FOMO going without Son and Ronaldo.

        Planning to do Bilva + Wilson/Watkins > Son + King for a hit.

    2. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ramsdale > DDG

  19. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Help Please:

    What to do with the below team? 1FT. 1.8 itb

    Sa* Steer*
    TAA James Cancelo Livra Reguilion
    Salah (c) Foden Bernardo Sissoko
    King Lacazette* Watkins*

    Sa > DDG seems the obvious move.
    Then I will be having 11 theoretically. Is Anything worth a hit? Maybe Watkins + Lacazette > Ronaldo + Broja (-8)?

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Can u get Son for a hit this week and lose Salah to fund Ronaldo next gw?

      I'm struggling with something similar

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I am tempted to captain Salah vs Leicester

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

      Think the keeper move is worth it

  20. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Chances of Jesus starting against Brenford?

    1. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      High

    2. Gooner97
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      What about Foden?

      1. Rassi
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Pep%

    3. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      He was just born 2 days ago, be patient.

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      High

  21. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Ramsdale -> DDG worth a go? Ramsdale has blank, City and Spurs next three whilst DDG has Burnley, Wolves and Villa.

    Ramsdale*
    TAA, Cancelo, James, Reguilon
    Foden, Bernardo, Jota, Bowen
    Ronaldo, Dennis

    (Steer, Dier, Saka*, Lacazette*)

    Cheers

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah Ramsdale to DDG will be the popular move.
      I just did DDG to Ramsdale a couple of gameweeks ago lol

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

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

      Yes

    4. Catastrophe

      Cheers all

  22. WVA
    • 7 Years

    I'm a little bit stuck here with no Pool attack and triple Arsenal.

    Very tempted to do Ramsdale ESR Laca to DDG Jota King but it leaves me with a benching headache although I anticipate someone getting a rest anyway.

    DDG
    TAA Cancelo James Reguilon
    Son Jota Bilva Bowen
    Ronaldo Antonio King

    Still have my WC. Is there a deadline for using it now? Whats the ideal wc team now?

    1. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Tmrw 11am. Have mine active too. Made one trade so far ha ha.

      1. AC Yew
        • 5 Years

        Haha, my first move was Guaita to Ramsdale and now im stuck lol

      2. SHOWSTOPPERRR

        Has it been changed now?

    2. AC Yew
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Tomorrow. Target teams from Man City, Utd, Pool. Spurs also as talks of double gameweek

      1. SHOWSTOPPERRR
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        City?????

        1. AC Yew
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Yes why not.

  24. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    50 vs 28 so far on my freehit, with Sancho and Ronaldo(c) to go. I'd call that a win. Would have been a disastrous rank drop without playing it.

    1. SHOWSTOPPERRR
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yes it is. But the thing is for every postponement weeks. Your fh may outscore the original eleven.

  25. PascalCygan

    Season’s greetings friends. I’ll wait until tomorrow obviously but early thoughts on this please?

    Managed to stay afloat without taking hits the past two weeks (but a little worried about Ronaldo cappers today)

    A) Laca + ESR > 6.5 striker + Salah (-4)
    B) Bernardo > Salah (free, exact money)

    1FT 5.4 ITB
    DDG
    TAA Cancelo Rudiger James
    Son Jota Gundogan Bernardo
    King

    Thanks!

    1. PascalCygan

      C) Laca to Ronaldo for free? See how he goes tonight

    Sterling was among the very best players at the Euros and looking at his recent form, he’s reaching those unplayable heights again.

    It’s strange how you still see a lot of people who have either made up their minds and feel he’s overrated, or who are undecided as to how good he is.

    If I was Southgate he’d be the first name I wrote down when selecting a squad.

    1. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      It was him or KdB for me on freehit. I had dealings with Sterling last post Xmas season and it caused me a lot of pain!

    2. Dr Mantis Toboggan
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Watching City recently, I feel like Sterling is the player to own from a fantasy perspective. Consistently gets into dangerous positions and his ball handling is unmatched in tight situations.

      He will be my Salah replacement next GW, with Son coming into my
      team this week.

    3. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I give up with City attackers…

      Remember when it looked like Torres was nailed as false 9… then he wasn’t.
      After that Foden was locked in as false 9… then he wasn’t.
      After that Jesus stepped up and looked ‘nailed’… then he wasn’t.
      Then Bilva was the man scoring the goals… then he wasn’t.
      Now Sterling looks nailed on and scoring….

    1. Diamondgeezer

      I would say Foden and Grelish should have been included, but they were out clubbing an couldn't come to the ceremony.

      1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS

        They were in the running tbf. 🙂

  28. EL tridente

    Who to bench?
    A) King
    B) Antonio
    C) Gallagher
    D) Reguilon
    E) Bernardo

    1. Hangman Page
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Just the fact you have a benching headache should be cause for celebration.

      1. EL tridente
        • 6 Years

        I´m also taking a hit to transfer out Smith-Rowe and Ramsdale

  29. Diamondgeezer

    Anyone know why Davies didn't play for Spurs yesterday?

    1. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Apparently rested?

      1. Diamondgeezer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Spurs have not played a lot lately, I was surprised to see him benched. Hopefully he is back for the next one. I should have went for Dier but oh well.

      2. Eastman
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Hope so. Took a -4 to bring him in

    How would you use this FT?

    Ramsdale Foster

    1 FT, 2.9 ITB

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Probably Ramsdale to Ddg/Loris?

      1. merin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I see your point. Wouldn’t you rather do Foster to a cheap playing GK and keep Ramsdale though?

        1. The Ilfordian
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Yes that works too. I’m trying to find out when Foster is back . FPL says 15 Jan but I don’t think it’s based on anything and Ranieri was rather vague. In previous years I’ve always just stuck with one keeper and spend the money elsewhere on the pitch. It’s probably the year to break that trend but Ramsdale has tough games and blanks coming up so at the moment I’m replacing but totally get why replacing Foster works too
