    do you guys think jonny gets more points this week against chelsea and mancity or next week against norwich

    1. putana
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      deciding when to bench boost

  2. McGinn
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Bench Boost Squad is:

    Schmeichel
    Alonso - Cancelo - Robbo - Matip
    Salah - KDB - Son - Mount
    Nketiah - Mateta

    Bench:
    Foster - Pukki - KD-H - Amartey

    2FTs.
    Mateta > Richarlison
    Robbo > Digne

    ?

    1. putana
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      robbo will get more points in one game then digne does in two

      1. Boberella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        But if doing that move enables Mateta to Richarlison….

        1. McGinn
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          yeah its a straight swap funds wise

    2. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      They look sound moves on a BB.
      Cash/Digne

  3. Boberella
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    For this week only:

    a) Cash
    b) Matip

    1. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I've been considering Cash but thinking better of it now given Burnley are playing to avoid the drop and other fixture is Liverpool

      1. Boberella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        That’s my thoughts. And Burnley at Turf Moor are a tough nut to crack again now.
        Def leaning Matip

    2. McGinn
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I'd go Matip (and if possible till end of season getting that cheap Lpool coverage and he'll play every game)

      1. Boberella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Thanks

    Hypothetical question.

    If u had to lose Kane to get the midfield u want on a free hit and had to play 4/5/1 which forward would u have?

    Mids would be
    Salah/Saka/Son/Foden/Gordon

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Richarlison.

    2. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Rich

    3. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Jesus

    4. space mercenary
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Jesus

  5. Ronnies
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Best option;

    A) Coady > Matip (Coutinho on bench)
    B) Play Coutinho

    Cheers.

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      B but wouldnt expect much

      1. luk46
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        if you think Matip starts twice, he'll most likely outscore him tho

  6. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Best move this GW?

    A) Mount –> Mahrez
    B) Coutinho –> Foden
    C) Cash –> Dias
    D) Emerson –> Matip
    E) Mount + Pukki –> Maddison + Richarlison (-4)

    Cheers!

    1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket

      C

  7. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Does Rogers lose his teeth whitening bonus now they haven't made the final?

  8. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Are we kinda ignoring Chelsea for their double? I only have Alonso and on a FH (probably)

    1. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I’m keeping Alonso and Mount for it.

    2. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Based on form for me it's yes. Absolutely awful last few weeks.

    3. putana
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      players will be rotated because of the fa cup final 3 days after leeds game

  9. Danstoke82
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Evening all, playing BB36 & FH37;

    Kane (own Son) + Coutinho > Richarlison + KDB -4

    Yay or nay?

    1. camarozz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Not sure about Kdb. I have a got feeling about Foden tho.

      1. Danstoke82
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Will Foden play both though considering he’s just played 120 minutes?

        1. camarozz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          He's young, motivated and prob get over the defeat quicker than most of them..
          My excuse anyway.

          1. Danstoke82
            • 9 Years
            1 year, 10 months ago

            May sleep on it. Richarlison rising in price tonight but still can’t decide between KDB/Foden and Mahrez!

  10. Dan D
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Schmeichel
    AA Cancelo Laporte Matip
    Foden Son Sana Salah
    Nketiah Recharlison

    Pickford Gordon Watkins Amartey

    2 FT ... any suggestions?

    1. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Not much to do there. BB team yeah?

      1. Dan D
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        noop - no more chips .. ..played already week 33 .

        1. Boberella
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          Shame. That’s an excellent BB team!
          Really nothing to do without ruining it for 37.

          1. Dan D
            • 2 Years
            1 year, 10 months ago

            Thanks ... I Played BB in 33, Get 27 points ...cannot comlaign 🙂

      it's interesting how a framing changes perception.

  12. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years

    Just sold Noja and Carthorst. Feels like having an anvil removed from both shoulders

  13. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Who could start for Chelsea instead of Alonso if Tuchel rotates?

    1. cruzex
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Sarr

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Sarr/Azpi LB in a four, Saul LWB, maybe RLC at a push and James moving across to the left

  14. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    If richalison was getting a ban, surely we’d know by now … as has their been a decision already and I’ve somehow missed it?

    1. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I would have thought the decision would have been made by now surely?

    2. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      He didnt really do a lot wrong was just trying to clear the flare and threw it in a vacant area

  15. Dan D
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    PLay one

    a) Gordon
    B)Nketiah
    c) Watkins

    1. space mercenary

    2. space mercenary

      ...no BB?

      1. Dan D
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        noop ..played week 33 where Roberts from BNernly get 16 ! 🙂

    3. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      A somehow

  16. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Sorry for the silly question and iv been around long enough to know probably but I'm so indecisive at the moment I need to know lol.

    Can I deactivate a FH once activated?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      no

    2. Huckfead
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      No. Found out the hard way myself earlier this year

      1. camarozz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        That's why I thought it best to double check. It's activated now anyway!

  17. luk46
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    what option do you prefer?

    A - Kane + Raphinha
    B - Kulusevski + KDB
    B - Son + Foden - 4 pts

    1. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      you wrote B twice, but B with Kulu haha

      1. luk46
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        need to go bed I guess... thanks for your answer!

    2. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      First B

  18. Klopp's Kids
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Any advice? Using BB, 1FT. Thanks 🙂

    Ederson | Pickford
    Alonso | Cancelo (C) | Roberts (single gw) | Tsimikas | Coady
    Coutinho | Salah (v) | Son | Kulusevski | Dewsbury-Hall
    Pukki | Watkins | Kane

    Thinking the priority is getting rid of Tsimikas for a playing DGW player but I also want De Bruyne.

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      dont like triple spurs and double villa, but the defence needs some improvement... how much money have you got?

      1. Klopp's Kids
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        0M sadly.

    2. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      KDB will cost you a few hits either way unless you transfer one of your premium mids, which I wouldn't... Focus on moving out Tsimi/Coady this week

    3. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      GL with Cancelo(c)!

    4. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Good chance Tsimikas plays vs Villa and he is the cheapest player in the game - I'd spend the money elsewhere

      1. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Yeah good point. Move Coady, awful fixtures

        1. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          I own both Tsimikas and Robertson, so really want Robbo rested last week - I'm starting Robbo but suspect Tsimi will end up scoring more this week

          1. Klopp's Kids
            • 10 Years
            1 year, 10 months ago

            I actually brought him in a while back as an enabler and in hopes he may play a game during Liverpool's high congestion. Maybe I'll move Coady and keep him. But risky if he plays 0/2.

    5. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Thank you everyone 🙂

  19. Minty1337

    Which would you choose -
    A - foden, digne, tavares (-8)

    Is Nketiah going to rise tonight?

    1. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Looks very likely … fplstatistics has him rising

      1. RWB_1991
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Nketiah only 100.9 now. Do we still think he’ll rise? I have the exact money to get him in now!

  21. Nightf0x

    BB36 active

    Foster schmikl - taylor laporte cancelo alonso taa - salah son mount cout madds - nketiah mateta toney, cout taylor -4 to:

    A) saka 4.8def. (holgate)
    B) gordon 6.9def. (james rudi vvd)

    1. Union_Jacks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I’d honestly just do Taylor > Royal/Tavares or Holding dependant on White outcome.

      How much money itb?

      Cout has a prime dgw week after this one, just keep imo

      1. Nightf0x
        • 8 Years

        Got FH

  22. jonnybhoy
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on White + Kane to Cancelo + Richarlison -4pts?

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Great

  23. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    FH activated.58pts ahead in ML he has FH also.

    Thoughts?

    Pickford

    Alonso/Cancelo/Matip/TAA

    Salah(c)/Son/Foden/Saka/Gordon

    Richarlson

  24. SKENG
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Any ideas for this team? Got 2 FTs and 0.2m ITB (no chips left).

    Schmeichel
    TAA Cancelo James Silva
    Salah Son Kulusevski Saka Havertz
    Broja

    Ramsdale Gelhardt Wood Doherty

    A) Wood & Ramsdale > Richarlison & 3.9m keeper (won't really need 2 keepers anymore)
    B) Wood & Havertz > Richarlison & Coutinho
    C) Wood & Silva > Richarlison & Holgate
    D) Wood & Silva > Nketiah & Dias
    E) smth else??

    Thanks!

    1. camarozz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Can u do B with Foden instead of Cout?

      1. SKENG
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        No, Coutinho would be for exact money.

        1. camarozz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          I got Coutinho on last wk but transferred out

          1. camarozz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            1 year, 10 months ago

            On FH *
            Have the luxury of having him back for nxts wks double.

    2. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I'd get rid of Doherty - get Tsimikas for just 3.7m, should give to some ITB to play with

    3. Dan D
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      b) but Rich and somebody else ...even Gordon to have money for next week

  25. The Big Fella
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    For me to upgrade Mateta to Richarlison for my BB this week, I need to either downgrade James or Havertz. Which would you rather lose and why?

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Depends on the options you are downgrading to?

      1. The Big Fella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        I am leaning towards Havertz and getting one of the Arsenal mids for 5.8 or less (so probably either Odegaard or Martinelli - neither really do it for me though). The alternative would be James to a 4.2 defender, which would be rubbish.

    2. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Havertz has been poor recently

      1. The Big Fella
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Yeah but James more likely to be rotated I think

        1. premierleaguesgreatestevert…
          • 4 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          Possible Lukaku gets minutes over the 2 games though which I think will hinder Havertz returns as well

  26. OptimusBlack
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    If you have those defenders what to do ?
    Cancelo Robbo White
    ( Chalobah Schär )

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Are you on BB?

    2. Union_Jacks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Dunno the context but just wait for Arteta presser

      1. Union_Jacks
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        You’ll need to make a defender transfer if out

    3. OptimusBlack

  27. Inspector Norse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Werner to Jesus... solid or look at other options?
    (I have three Chelsea assets, but only Cancelo from Man City)

  28. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Considering the fixtures which is better.

    Double City defence
    (Laporte+Cancelo)

    Double Pool defence(Matip+TAA)

    On a FH and can afford either

    1. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Double City

    2. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      City

    3. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      ideally both! however, would choose city just given NEW wol are stronger cs potential than TOT vil

  29. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Another hit or two gives me a better BB squad for 36, but a severe benching headache in 37. So what do you do? Relieve yourself and not take said hits for 36...??
