FPL Marc Broadcaster, writer and overthinker. Hoping that ‘differential potential’ will catch on.

  1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Where’s the city lineup

    Is Alvarez in?

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Only news we know is no Mahrez

      1. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Ah cheers
        I thought there was a lineup leaked

      2. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        And Foden starts

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          KdB???

    2. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      We know Foden starts.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Ok great KdB usually starts when he does, sweet

  2. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Remember Ghandi people….

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

      It's me versus Gandhi this week. Nervous.

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        You've already lost

  3. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Does Ake starts anyone??

  4. BERGKOP
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Spurs over a 2nd Newc defender?

    1. ggfussball
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Royal

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I've taken Royal over a Brentford defender

      Famous last words, and all that

    3. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Cheers both

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'm on Royal as I like the fixture this week and in 28
      Conte is the risk though I am taking - Porro has looked poor from what I've seen, but they did pay 40m for him

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        They paid for Perisic too, and Davies is now playing ahead of him

        They're trying to secure top 4 so it's no time for loyalty. Even Son's getting benched 😀

        I don't think these decisions happened without Conte's outright approval

  5. ManUtdFan977
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Play trip or Henry?

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Thierry

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Henry

  6. mcginnntonic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Play trippier or shaw?

    1. bialk
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'm playing Shaw

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Skywalker

    3. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I’m playing both

  7. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I’m going all out and capping KdB! And welcome Zinchenko to the main team 😎

    1. Letsgo!
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Manc to lose 2-0

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years

      Or Trippier

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Uhhhhh Shaw. Higher potential. Tough one tho.

  9. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    bench order right?

    a) Andreas
    b) Tripp
    c) N.Will

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

      ACB

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

    Feel like should have gone Foden over Maddison as a Mahrez replacement. But it is what it is. GL all.

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Yea kinda feel that too. Is it what it is, hopefully Phil blanks

  11. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I haven't got the guts to captain Martinelli.

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

        Just switched back to Saka.

      2. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

    2. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I took Haaland out! Captaining Gabriel!

      One of those is true.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

    2. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Foden will start not Mahrez

    3. BECKS TO THE FUTURE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Needed a 3.9 def to afford Zinchenko, and rest of team is saucy so didn’t want to ruin it

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years

    Good luck everyone!

    1. Lucky Z

      Rashford will smash this GW

      1. FPL Brains
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

  26. Steve McCroskey
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    IT'S SHOWTIME

  27. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    PANTS DOWN

  28. DARE TO BISCAN
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Last minute flip-flop back to Haaland (c). Feels right

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Gandhi though...

      1. DARE TO BISCAN
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Sandals though...

    2. jonnybhoy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Wish i did it. Bottled it

  29. JBG
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Had to start Gakpo because Mahrez is bench... ugh.

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Benched*

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Knowing FPL, him, Darwin and TAA will all score today to screw those who WCed them out

  30. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Why Madders still flagged

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Rodgers said "expected" to be fit rather than "he's fit"

      So the 75% flag stays. Flawed system, but it keeps 'em safe from backlash

    2. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Made out of rice crispy cakes
