    Have Robbo, no Salah.
    Net positive. Woulda loved a different assister.

    Salah > Bruno instead of Kane > Tonaldo last week has cost me genuinely about 70 points. Insane.

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 16 mins ago

      Yeah, same moves I did/didn't. As a non owner, I'd take only an assist from Salah, tbh.

    Trent been very, very poo today.

    Gomez might be 3rd sub.

      At least the sun is out. Every cloud and all that.

  9. JoeSoap

    Of course I had Robbo on FH last week. Back to TAA this wk. Funny old game.

    1. swanseag55

      I have Robertson in my team but FH this week and brought Van Dyk and TAA in lol as you say it’s a funny old game

  10. Rainer

    Salah big miss

  11. Mr. O'Connell
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 18 mins ago

    Mane given 2 points

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 17 mins ago

      He was off and sub was on before 60' must have changed that rule.

      1. Cantona's Kung Fu Kick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 16 mins ago

        it's called the liverpool rule

      2. Mr. O'Connell
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 16 mins ago

        Standard. Almost as good as the rule change where Leicester keepers don't lose points for yellow cards.

    2. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 17 mins ago

      Clearly left the pitch at 59

      1. Goodfeathers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 16 mins ago

        Any point in time after 59 is technically in the 60th minute

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 15 mins ago

          Not the way for FPL need to play to 60:00. Or at least needed to in the past.

          1. Goodfeathers
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 14 mins ago

            Fair enough. They’ve that wrong then

            1. Goodfeathers
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              2 years, 14 mins ago

              *got that

        2. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 14 mins ago

          Not correct by the rules

        3. KanuLenoMeeMoCash
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 14 mins ago

          Except I've seen it not given in similar 60th min scenario

        4. Hect.OR 98th
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 13 mins ago

          Yes, but until that 60th minute is completed, the player hasn't played for 60 minutes.

          Otherwise, we'd celebrate our birthdays the day before, which would be nonsense.

          1. Goodfeathers
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 9 mins ago

            I was just thinking in terms of how they times stamp scores in football.. If someone scores at 59:01 the goal will be chalked down as 60’.

  12. fplgaruda
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 18 mins ago

    Yes Robbo 15 pts

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 17 mins ago

      Don't jinx

    2. el polako

      Is game finished then ?

      1. Muchentuchel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 15 mins ago

        nah but he'll be on 20 after the match

    3. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 12 mins ago

      It’s not 15 until the final whistle.

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 11 mins ago

      Bringing in Robbo in GW22 probably been the best thing in my season
      Only blanked once since then (vs. City) and averaged 8.3 PPG, incredible form

  13. xHaTr
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 16 mins ago

    This game makes me want to kill myself. I literally cant wait for the season to end my misery

    1. el polako
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 15 mins ago

      It's only a game pal.

      1. xHaTr
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 11 mins ago

        This game is pure poison for the mental health. Anyone that pretends to enjoy it is kidding themselves. Theres more skill in a roulette wheel

        1. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 8 mins ago

          I’d stop playing if it affected my life as much as this.
          Do something that you enjoy.

        2. el polako
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 8 mins ago

          I get it and trust me when I have bad week or two it puts me in shite mood for a while.
          Having said that, bigger problems in life in put this into perspective for me and no way I would consider topping myself over fantasy football.

    2. Hect.OR 98th
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 15 mins ago

      You need to find a new hobby. I'm having a poor season, but it's an enjoyable game.

      1. Mario Balofail
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 12 mins ago

        Very reasonable advice.

        1. Pukki Party
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 3 mins ago

          My advice would be to not take it so seriously, and learn to cope with things (in this case a game) not going your way.

      2. xHaTr
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 mins ago

        IMPOSSIBLE to enjoy any aspect of this game. It takes the joy of football and saps the life out of it

    3. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 15 mins ago

      Triple Everton defense?

    4. Not again Shirley
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 14 mins ago

      I’m with you mate. Been a terrible season and ready to draw a line under it and start again next season. I’m thinking next season can’t be as bad.

    5. fplgaruda

      • 6 Years

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 13 mins ago

        Nobody capped Robbo tho

  15. Duke Silver ☑

    Cba to work it out but reckon my non-FH team is outscoring my FH team by about 30 points 😆

    1. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 mins ago

      Same here. Had Robbo and Saka in my regular team.

      Kind of week that makes me consider taking next year off

  16. Haalander

    been hovering around 20-30k for 10 GWs, finally looking better this GW

  19. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 12 mins ago

    Who's going to score Liverpool's second goal? Salah? TAA? Origi? Jota? Keane?

    1. dshv
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 mins ago

      Robertson!!!

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 mins ago

      Salah

    3. Philosopher's Stones

      Diaz

    5. fplgaruda

      Fowler

  20. HippY
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 12 mins ago

    Having Robbo and Salah has made me feel better for taking out Saka as part of a -8

  21. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 mins ago

    A bit late but damn I should have gone gut (Alonso (c) over safe Havertz or boring but ultimately inevitable Salah!)

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 mins ago

      Wish I captained Jesus personally.

      1. TomSaints
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 mins ago

        Well obviously but as I brought in Havertz and Alonso to (c) one this was closer to reality

  22. el polako
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 mins ago

    Dele Alli still playing football, wow !

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  23. Freshy

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years

      Shhhh guys plz I need this

    3. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 8 mins ago

      Rules are that Mark owns him

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 mins ago

      The FPL admin has Schmeichel and Mane in their team

    5. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 mins ago

      past 59+ min rounds up to 60 to my knowledge

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 4 mins ago

        Some sense there but not a lot. Tnks anyway

      2. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 3 mins ago

        Not sure, Gallagher shows 60 on the PL site last GW but only got 1 point:

    6. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 mins ago

      Fpl rules say

      'playing up to 60 minutes = 1 point

      Playing 60 minutes or more (excluding stoppage time) = 2 points'

      Playing just before 60 mins clearly shouldn't get the extra points

  26. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 mins ago

    Current baps:

    Robertson (43)
    Matip (28)
    van Dijk (25)

    Alexander-Arnold (23)
    Alisson (19)

  27. Rainer

  30. fplgaruda
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 4 mins ago

    Lol, Rondon.
    Is this the year of 2001?
    Absolutely Benitez buy to drag Everton down

    1. Hairy Potter
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 mins ago

      What money was Rafa given to spend? If they go down, Lampard is as much to blame.
