Our Members Videos continue with another installment ahead of the Gameweek 10 deadline.

This week, it’s a goalkeeper special as David Munday examines the best men between the sticks.

As managers play the Wildcard in their droves this Gameweek, it has never been more important to assess which is the best shot-stopper combination, especially with so many highly-owned assets disappointing of late.

David uses the lesser-known elements of the Season Ticker and a deep-dive into the defensive numbers of every Premier League team, as well as some niche numbers reflecting a goalkeeper’s ability to make important saves, to find the answers you need.

The video is available to watch via the embedded link below.

There was also a live Q&A earlier today if you’re in the mood for more visual offerings, plus a whole host of other content in the Gameweek 10 playlist.

    Should I play my wildcard? No easy way to get Salah in without it

    Ederson (Turner)
    Schar Udogie Cash (Kabore) (Botman)
    Son Maddison Saka Bruno Foden
    Watkins Haaland (Archer)

    I’ve got 0.1m ITB and 2 FT

    1. We Go Again
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Nah, I think go without for now the rest of your team is good and 2FT

    2. TR1CKY TREES
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Maddison, Bruno, Foden to Salah, Mitoma, Gordon -4

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years

      Sell Haaland to get Salah. If it goes +1+$ up get him back on wildcard.

      I dropped haaland for salah myself

  2. The Pep Revolution
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Do you think it is a viable strategy to go without Haaland or is it a mistake waiting to happen?

    1. oi no professionals
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Been making that mistake since GW8 now and I’m at 168k from 2.8m

      1. The Pep Revolution
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Well done.
        The money would do a lot for the rest of the team.

    2. Snooze ya lose

      Look at the top 10 in the world

  3. Maeki2
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    A. Saka Alvarez
    or
    B. Maddison, Watkins

    1. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Sure You Did
      • 2 Years

      A

    3. JBG
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      For this GW, B.

      Long term A.

  4. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    I think I will risk it and bring in Fati over Mitoma. 0.6% ows major differential

    1. Flynny
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I'm getting adingra 0.5 per cent owned!

      1. Woy_is_back
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Good option too

  5. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Need to replace Mbeumi tnite since there is a risk he ll drop based on Fplstatistics. So tempted by diaby.. however mitoma just feels like a comfy safety blanket since even if he blanks for a game or two I'd keep him knowing he can average 180 points a season ie the golden 5 points a game consistently. I'd get nervy with diaby if he blanks. So that's my mind made up then. I'm super boring

    1. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Ive just done it.. Mitoma in for Mbeumo. The next 7 fixtures are just too good. Even if he starts just 5 of them he should get a healthy points tally

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        I prefer Mitoma to DIaby too

  6. Maddison or Mitoma on WC if money isn't an issue?

    1. Woy_is_back
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Maddy

    2. Sure You Did
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I have Maddy and I am benching him but still prefer him over Mitoma. I would take a punt on Adingra, personally, if you want Brighton.

    3. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Adingra and keep the change

    4. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Maddison is a pure premium. Should be compared to saka .. mitoma is one of the best mid priced mids but I doubt will hit the 200 mark this season while Maddison easily could

  7. Solly The Seagull
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Which one out for Tsimikas?

    A) Botman
    B) Udogie

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Sure You Did
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      A

    3. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      The injured one

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Udogie is a doubt for tomorrow but could be Ange games.

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          Hmm :/

    4. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      A

  8. HP18
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Nunez, Alvarez and Mitoma to Watkins, Saka and Osula worth it for a -4?

    1. We Go Again
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure I'd be getting rid of Mitoma right now

      1. HP18
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Has scored twice in his last 11 games for Brighton though

        1. Valar(Keith)
          • 16 Years
          2 years, 1 month ago

          He has scored 3 goals in the epl in 9 games.. and 3 assists. 44 points in a fixture run that included MCY, Villa, utd, liv, Newcastle.. his next 7 are probably the best fixtures in the league

          1. HP18
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 1 month ago

            Fair point!

    2. SoulShakinTex
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      No

    3. Free Hat
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Replacing 3 good players for only 2...and that for a min 4. Definitely no for me

      1. HP18
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        I know but I just feel like no Saka & Watkins is suicide! Imagine if Nunez doesn't start and Alvarez blanks at United... risky!

    My first wc post. Am I cooking?

    Areola
    Trippier Tsimikas Gabriel
    Salah Saka Son Gordon
    Haaland Watkins Pedro

    Strakosha Adingra G

  10. Domo

    Play Pedro Neto or Lyle Foster?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Think I'd go Foster

  11. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Lovely Fati goal but Adringa pass was also a peach.

  12. Traction Engine Foot
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    What would you do here with 2ft and 0.3itb? Really want Saka but would have to lose Son or Haaland, and Taylor is my only cover if Udogie is out. Should I just do Udogie to Gabriel and roll the other transfer?

    Areola
    Cash Trippier Udogie
    Salah Son Bowen Neto
    Haaland Alvarez Watkins

    Turner Taylor Anderson Lamptey

    2. Sheffield Wednesday

      Defence OK.

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

    Right. In pretty much the same boat as everybody else here, I think: I want Saka, but am quite happy with the five midfielders I have. On 2FT would you rather:
    A) Højlund to Darwin + save FT
    B) Maddison to Saka and Højlund to, say, Ferguson
    C) Højlund to Darwin and Porro to Gabriel. Keep Maddison, go without Saka
    D) Maddison to Saka and Porro to Gabriel or Tsimikas. Bench Højlund
    E) Any other affordable and similar solution involving any of the above
    F) Just burn the transfer, or swap Lamptey third on bench
    Cheers.

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      Thought you were about to roll out the whole alphabet there.

      I’d say B I think

      1. SoulShakinTex
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        I am sure I could go on…. Y) Play with six midfielders and two strikers from now on. Cheers!

  16. DanLFC1
    • 9 Years

    Stuck on what to do here. Would love Bowen & Saka in but can't do it. What would you suggest?

    2FTs and 0.0itb

    Areola
    Cash Udogie Burn
    Salah Son Madison Ward-Prowse

    Stakosha Andersen Anderson Taylor

  19. The Yorkshire Pirlo

    2 years, 1 month ago

    So many diff options to go with this week, keeping Alvarez over Watkins too risky?

    A) Trippier/Maddison/JWP > Gabriel/Saka/Bowen

    B) Trippier/Maddison/Alvarez > Gabriel/Saka/Watkins (means keeping JWP)

    Areola
    Trippier/Udogie/Cash
    Salah/Son/Maddison/Diaby/JWP
    Haaland/Alvarez

    Turner/Burn/Archer/Lamptey*

      1. Traction Engine Foot

        Son and Gordon

  23. KieranKA

    Simple question: Udogie to Gabriel for free, or roll?

    1 FT, 0.0 ITB
    Aréola // Turner
    Cash Burn Tsimikas // Udogie** Taylor
    Salah Son Maddison Bowen Diaby

    A: roll

  27. adidasOriginals
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Do these players start on the weekend? Here's my predictions
    Darwin - No
    Mitoma - Yes
    Foden - Yes

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      No
      No
      Yes

    2. Free Hat
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      All yes

    3. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      No
      50 50. Think they look after him after his fatigue
      Yes

    4. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Can't see Mitoma being rested. Just got his rest a 2 weeks ago and he is their main player.

  28. Superlopez
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    How's my WC looking guys? I appreciate any feedback! 🙂

    0.1 ITB
    Areola (Turner)
    Gabriel, Cash, Tsimikas (Guehi, Taylor)
    Saka, Salah, Son, Mitoma (Palmer)
    Haaland, Watkins, Joao Pedro

    It hurts removing Alvarez and Tripps (got them for 6.8 and 6.6 respectively), but it feels like the only way to fit everyone else. I could sell Haaland, but don't want to. Any thoughts?

    1. oi no professionals
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Sell Haaland

    2. Superlopez
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      GTG??

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

      I will have Alvarez+Gordon instead of Mitoma+Pedro. And Baldock instead of Guehi but otherwise the same team.

      1. Superlopez
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks! I just saw your team and I'm debating whether to go the same route to be honest. Really liking the idea of having that front 3. Only concern is losing on bench depth especially on defense. Do you worry about it?

  29. The Parrot
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    Last one.
    Promise.
    For tonight.

    A) Son + Guehi + Pau Torres
    B) Mitoma + Trippier + Cash

    1. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      B)

    2. Superlopez
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      I love Son, but it has to be B in this case. I only fancy Guehi as an enabler to play on rare ocasions (like GW13 vs Luton). I reckon Mitoma, Trippier and Cash should outscore A. Cash could easily become an Estupinan when he's fit, which I also like.

  30. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 1 month ago

    A. Nunez + Diaby
    B. Joao Pedro + Saka

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Apologies, B is for -4

      1. Superlopez
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 1 month ago

        A, and you try to get Saka in after the Newcastle fixture, for GW12 with Burnley at home.

    2. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Not the week to be getting rid of Diaby

    3. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 1 month ago

      Right now and with fixtures probably B. Need to see Nunez starting before I'd consider him.
