    What to do with 2 WC and 2 GW left till next year?

    Team looks like this:
    Sanchez (Ward)
    Trippier / Saliba / Perisic / Cancelo / N.Williams
    Zaha / Eze / KDB / Martinelli / Odegaard
    Haaland / Darwin / Scamacca

    OR: 304,939

        Basically I have a FH for GW17 and a WC to make a nice squad for the next half-season. The ones you have mentioned are ready to go. Cheers!

          If first Wild Card was not used before World Cup you lose it. I don't see why anyone would be in a rush to use the Wild Card for the second half of the season straight after the unlimited free World Cup transfers there will surely be better opportunities?

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Kane possible to add to squad with some tweaks instead of Scamacca?

      1. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        using as suggested some players out of your current squad

  2. Magic Zico

    Garnacho needs to come in for Erlanga the last 30 mins

  3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

    God United are a painful watch

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Almost as bad as skys coverage

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I saw that YouTube prat on there.

        Trying everything to stay relevant.

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          It’s sky trying to trying to stay relevant

          I used to think sky was quite a professional organisation. Now sky sports news on transfer deadline day is full of YouTubers or people from twitter. They lost all credibility

          The stuff with speed is embarrassing.

      You watching the same game, hater?

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        If Fulham had a striker, they’d be losing

  4. Zimo

    Ooo Eriksen big miss

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)

  5. boombaba
    • 12 Years

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years

    3. Philosopher's Stones

    Just a thought - is anyone thinking of setting up for bench boost over the break?

    It's always my worst chip, but could rotation be an issue?
    On the other side of the coin we'll know who was knocked out of the World Cup and those that didn't go at all

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Possibility with some cheapies have delivered recently, especially Wardinho!!

    2. Tanglebrain
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I was thinking this last night.. but I’m not sure the fixtures are quite right for it.. Ward vs Newcastle for example will probably get you a 2, etc

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Keep for next year when double week fixture

    What you make of this

    Ward fodder
    James Cancelo Tripp (Neco Patterson)
    Salad Andreas Almiron Tross (Summerville)
    Darwin Kane Haa

    1. Royal5

      Lasagna

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      James would be my concern - if fit then GTG -

      1. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Unless sell Salah for KDB

  10. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ramsdale & Botman
    or
    Pope & Saliba

    Also have White & Trippier. Money is no issue.

    1. C0YS
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B although I'm not sure about doubling up on Arsenal defense, but B if that's the route you want to go

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Pop & Saliba

  11. Philosopher's Stones

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years

      1. Philosopher's Stones

    2. Defcons are for Kinnear

      Woke mob taken over. They want to ban calling Pep a bald fraud!!!

  12. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any defender up to 6.2M, who you taking?

    No; White or Trippier allowed.

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years

      1. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks...fingers crossed

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years

      1

    4. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It will not be the final dilemma, guaranteed haha!

      Option 1 though.

  14. Sgt. Schultz
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    DDG good save

  15. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Crazy that DDG isn't in the Spain WC squad...

    1. It's Fergie Time
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      are there really 3 better Spanish keepers than DDG?

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He is not playing in Spain is reason good enough?

      1. It's Fergie Time
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        he wasn't in 2018 either

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

        Brentford Raya and Brighton Sanchez are?

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He has history:

      "De Gea continued to struggle in Spain's final group match against Morocco on 25 June, however, which ended in a 2–2 draw;[178] his unsteady performances in the group stage drew criticism in the media, who noted that he had only made one save in the tournament.[179] On 1 July, De Gea also failed to make a save during Spain's 4–3 penalty shootout loss to hosts Russia in the Round of 16; the match had ended in a 1–1 draw after extra-time, with De Gea being beaten by an Artem Dzyuba penalty in the first half.[180][181] De Gea ended the tournament having conceded six goals from seven shots on target, excluding the four goals he conceded in the penalty-shootout; with only one save, he recorded fewer saves than any other goalkeeper who had played at least three matches in a single edition of the tournament since 1966."

    DDG masterclass keeping Fulham out.

  17. DycheDycheBaby

    Marcus is down. I repeat. Marcus is down.

  18. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford is an awfull footballer. No composure and should not be in the England squad. Never going to get anything in this game if he played till midnight

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Don’t get the hype around him, he is just a dreadful player, and that’s coming from a United fan

      1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        And bloody lazy

      2. bench boost for every gamew…
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Strange that Southgate puts him in his 26 man squad. Must be really bad this Marcus fella. From a Liverpool supporter.
        Or maybe you and a lot of others ffs experts doesnt really understand this game called football.
        Same with Ward in the early stage of season, ridiculed, i saw him for Liverpool and Huddersfield, and knew he was good. And he was

  19. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best 7m mid for world cup?

  20. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford and his shoulder is concerning

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Seems to be fit...

    2. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Toney says hi

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      100% agree - Toney

      1. bench boost for every gamew…
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Toney fell victim of being to like Kane. You need different kind of strikers in a squad.
        Toney done all to deserved a place.

  21. Manani
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    is the price now fixed till after WC?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

  22. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I should get away from the WC drafts, but a fourmium template looks unbelievably solid.

    Ward / Iversen
    Trippier, Botman, White / 4.5m, Patterson
    KDB, Salah, Martinelli, Almiron, 7.0m
    Haaland, Kane / Greenwood

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Does look good buddy, just don’t see Salah as worth the price tag anymore, especially when Darwin is much cheaper, but I do like it don’t get me wrong! Haha

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yes, let's say you get Darwin, what will you do with the extra money? Almost 2.5m will be left in the bank.

    2. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Or, if you want 3-4-3, there's Mitrovic and Andreas (instead of Greenwood, Trossard) which gives 3 nailed bench players.

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Upgrade Botman to someone like Cancelo perhaps as already have Trippier, but I too may even drop Cancelo yet I’m not sure.

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        That’s true also, think a lot of value can still be had from Mitro, but also feels like time to move on from him

    3. tbos83
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It does,t though I'd struggle to give up Cancelo

      1. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Difficult to sell Cancelo. But, if I am going 3 or 2 premiums, then also I have to sell Cancelo. City slots go to Haaland, KDB, Foden.

        1. Bluetiger1
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Newcastle & Arsenal seem to have the best defence this year

  23. Sgt. Schultz

    De Gea is a truly awful keeper.

      Fine exhibition of your outstanding football knowledge.
      £375k a week is the actual as opposed to the fictional made up number of yours
