Mark and Luke look ahead to Gameweek 20 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) in a bonus video over on our YouTube channel.

The pair discuss Boxing Day’s deadline drama, their decision to opt against playing the Free Hit in Gameweek 19 and when they plan to deploy one of these two allocated chips in the future.

Manchester City rotation roulette, Bernardo Silva‘s (£7.6m) blanks and the pair’s plans for Aaron Ramsdale (£5.1m) are also on the agenda.

You can view their hour-long chat in the embedded video below or via this link.

      B

    2. Allison Wonderland

      C or D. Sell Foden after this week

  3. Bobby Digital

    Is DCL fit? Everton fixtures are great...

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

      Coming back. Probably eased back in.

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He hasn’t played in 23 years so will probably be eased in

    3. beric
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He's gorgeous yeah

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

    Lacazette + Saka > Gray + Antonio for -4

    Yes or No?

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

      No

      Purchasing an Evertonian and a player who cant score is a step backwards no matter who youre selling

    2. POGON 1948
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I would only do that if it means going from 9 to 11 players

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

    Are any United players worth purchasing and why?

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

      See how they get on tonight first?

    2. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, they’ve got great fixtures

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

        I meant specific players rather than the general concept

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

          Oh - I’m not really interested in any other than CR7 who I guess is fairly self explanatory and maybe DDG - many looking at Dalot but seems a bit dodgy to me when he’s got a 50m backup

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

            Indeed, yet another thing Ronaldo is ruining

    3. beric
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not answering any questions till you reformat those spreadsheets

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      De Gea/Maguire, Ronaldo

    5. just a man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I like Dalot if he’s nailed. Tonight will tell more.

      De Gea seems a good Ramsdale alt if shifting.

      Ronaldo good captain whilst Salah away.

      Wait and see on the others.

    6. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      GWs 19 and 20 will tell if I'll get Dalot. I'll go for other teams otherwise, maybe Lamptey or Mitchell. Not the best

      I already have DDG. Ronaldo's coming in on WC21 ± Dalot

      Uninterested in the rest due to prices

  6. mgilbert86
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    A) Lacazette + Martinelli -> Broja + Son

    B) Lacazette + Bernardo -> Broja + Salah

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

      A makes more sense. But I'm pretty worried about salah this week

  7. kellamergh
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I'm looking for a route to make the Raphinha to Maddison move in gw21.
    Would you agree with this gw20 move to release funds (0.1m short?)

    Bilva & Watkins to Jota & Broja/King -4

    Ramsdale
    Livramento James Cancelo Reguilon TAA
    Foden Jota Son
    Ronaldo King

    Foster Davis Raphinha ESR

    1. Alcapaul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good. Think id go King over Broja this week and then maybe look to upgrade Davis to Broja soon.

      1. kellamergh
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks, pal

  8. Alcapaul
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Probably doing Steele and Lacazette to Broja and de Gea -4.

    Is it worth doing Foden to Son for another -4? If Foden starts he could do well but Son is a better option over the coming weeks.

  9. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    DDG
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso
    Jota Foden Bowen Gallagher
    Ronaldo Antonio

    (Gunn Livra Saka* Laca*)
    1 FT & 0.1m

    Should I save FT if no more games are postponed?

    Have been considering Laca & Foden to Son & King/Broja for -4 but I can do it for free in GW21 also.

    1. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Would save if no more cancellations.

    2. POGON 1948
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely save, beautiful position to be in

  10. ZTF
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Got exactly 11 players.

    Is it worth a -4 to get a 5th defender and have Livramento as first sub? Or just play him and hope for no benched players or postponements.

    1. Alcapaul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I'd just play him

    2. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If you can make a good long term move I’d do it.

  11. sovietrockettes
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    For a -4 to field 11:

    A) Cash>Reguillon
    B) Raphinha>Bowen (Have Antonio)

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

      B

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

        I know people are wary of the double up but if it’s Antonio you have already, you may as well get the good one

    2. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A

  12. CABAYE4
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    A. Son (sou, wat)
    B. Salah (lei, che) -4

    Both would be captained both GWs

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

      A

  13. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Livramento, Watkins -> Reguilon, Antonio -4?

  14. MGD
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Did I miss something or why are Arsenal and Villa blanking in GW 20?

    1. POGON 1948
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Villa camp made it happen but we haven't heard anything official other than SG testing positive

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

        But they are blanking in the app?

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

          Cancelled due to Villa covid issues

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

            Sorry, due to Leeds Covid issues. And Wolves covid issues in the case of the Arsenal game

        2. POGON 1948
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah the postponement is official, I meant we haven't heard the reasons why but safe assumption to make that SG definitely had contact with his players.

          1. POGON 1948
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Oh and yeah like @Redro said, Arsenal is because of Leeds outbreak. Missed that 1

  15. g40steve

    Derby stun WBA 🙂

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

      I can’t see them holding this.

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

    Is the Watford v West Ham game still set to go ahead tomorrow?

  17. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah Dennis or KDB Maupay on WC?

    Would do both those moves in the next 2 weeks anyway, but think Leicester is a great fixture for Salah and Dennis is in way better form than King so want to hold him as long as possible

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

      Salah Dennis

    2. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I get Salah, but there’s no way I’d be booking in the Dennis transfer on WC. Over 100 Covid cases in the Premier League this week - we’re gonna need all the transfers we can get for a while yet, it seems. Dennis to Broja?

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

        Got Broja. Would be King or Maupay

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

          I’d go King. There’s not much in it between him and Dennis. Maupay not worth the extra 0.5 imo

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

            The thing is I got Dennis early so King is more expensive. So has to be Salah Dennis or City mid and King!

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

              Hmm, tricky one. I sold Salah and Dennis for Son and Broja last week. Salah could haul… but so could Son and KDB. I think it would be fine to book in the Salah transfer, but not both. Nowhere else you could shave off a little extra cash for Salah and King?

  18. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years

    A. Wilson
    or
    B. DCL

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

      B but I think it’s maybe a week or two early

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Willing to risk it

    4 years, 1 month ago

    Still listening to many from the community and podcasts frankly bedwetting over the site crashing so they could not hang on for team leaks before the official deadline (team news is not supposed to be released before the deadline. Its frankly (again) a form of cheating (unofficial or official)) as not everyone has the same access to the leaks, and they should not be leaked. It is something that needs stamping down on.

    Also obvious that you get IT spikes at certain times and the site nearly crashed a few weeks back. No such thing as bad luck if you got affected by this.

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

      A crash will still upset a lot of people playing it clean. Personally trying to avoid the -right before- decitions but this and last season is special due to covid canceling matches close to deadline.

  24. Big Ronnie

    1FT and £2.9m ITB. Did Salah to Son for free last GW to leave the option to reverse for free. Not sure if I should do it now as want Son longer term.

    A) Son to Salah
    B) Foster to playing cheap keeper

    Maddison or Bowen?

    1. Herger

      Bowen

    2. waltzingmatildas

      I quite like maddison after this week

    3. Allison Wonderland

      4 years, 1 month ago

      Maddison

    4. g40steve
      • 7 Years

      Form player is Maddison, similar points with 400mins less pitch time.

    Would you sell Bernardo (and squeeze in Son for a hit) or just leave him for another week and possibly save the FT?
    Would change Laca to Broja to fund the move.

    DDG.
    TAA, Cancelo, Alonso, Dalot.
    Foden, Bernardo, Martinelli, Bowen.
    Ronaldo, King.
    Bach, Laca, Martinelli, Tierney.
    1ft, 1.2m ITB.

    1. waltzingmatildas

      I quite like those moves

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Everyone is selling this week but I feel like keeping Bernardo one GW more. I feel like the City mid most likely to get a rest is KDB (body breaking down etc), so Bernardo stands a good chance of playing right-centre mid & getting in the box more vs Brentford

  28. yanky
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    is Gallagher a good transfer in? Haha would be for either Martinelli or Gundo

      No Salah or Jota v that Leicester defence is a concern but I guess you know that and have large sofa to hide behind!
