    Any changes to make with front 3 of Haaland, Alvarez, Semenyo?

    Thinking of just keeping haaland and playing Semenyo next 2. Too risky or just get Watkins now?

    1. Fellaini's Fro
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      If no FT the question is does Watkins outscore semenyos by 4 pts over the next 2 games?

      I think so

  2. GE

    On wildcard.

    1) Best goalkeeper combination
    2) Two of Palmer, Gordon and Gross

    1. Sprinterdude
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      1 Gordon
      2 Palmer
      3 Gross

      Leno + Martinez/Turner/Pickford

    2. Fellaini's Fro
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Wc20 for me and I'm probably going

      Raya/ Turner or Areola if affordable

      Palmer/Gross

    Tripp&JWP out for Pau&Son?

    1. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      yea easy

  4. Jimmy Boy

    2 years, 10 days ago

    Team is a mess - everyone starred is either injured, suspended, or won't play for one reason or another. I've got 1FT.

    Areola*
    Trippier* - James* - Gabriel
    Salah - Fernandes* - Bowen - Hwang
    Haaland* - Alvarez - Jesus

    Kelleher* - Taylor* - Baldock* - 4.3m*

    Would you free hit this? The best-case scenario otherwise would be Haaland+Areola ending up being fit for the weekend, then taking a -4 getting James and Fernandes out and fielding 10 players in GW17.

    1. 15th Time Lucky
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      FH and you've still got 2 City blanks, James (isn't he long term injured? ) Taylor, Baldock and the 4.3 as issues next week.

      Just take hits now to improve the team in the medium term, not just for this week. Exactly who depends on so many factors.

      I'd probably do James and Bruno > Porro/Paul and Son. Could even justify a -8 if its improving line term from this point.

    2. Fellaini's Fro
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Yikes. My condolences.

      You need to hit out non starters so that you can field as many players in 17 and 18

      Trip and Bruno are less of an issue imo as they should play 18

      James should go as think he misses both
      The other sale should either be haaland or the 4.3 imo.

      Best case scenario (haaland areola fit) take a - 4 to field 10 this week and you can field 11 next week with 1ft

      Worst case (haaland areola out) -8 to field 10 this week

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      I would take one hit.
      Count on Areola getting back.

      Move James and Fernandes.
      Porro and Son.
      Or tripps if you need moneys.

      Two hits if you feel itchy.
      But wait on Haaland.

  5. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 days ago

    What would u do?

    a) keep Saka and Haaland
    b) Saka -> Son
    c) Haaland, Nakamba -> Son, Solanke (-4pts)

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Haaland > Solanke

    2. 15th Time Lucky
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      I think Son's worth the -4, so I like c. Just make sure you have a Haaland plan though, because c doesn't leave you with money to get him back.

      1. Bishopool
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        I think with C im gonna WC after ManC blank.

        1. Bishopool
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 10 days ago

          but yeah, the biggest concern is when Haaland starts. Then it smells like Haaland hattrick and Sons failure written all over it 🙂

        2. 15th Time Lucky
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 10 days ago

          In that case definitely c, assuming Haaland is out

  6. F4L
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 days ago

    hwang to gordon for a hit worth it? thinking no

    1. 15th Time Lucky
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      I wouldn't even do it for free this week given form of opponents and how tired Newcastle look. (Hoping I'm wrong though as I own Gordon. )

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years

    Süle with a block of a century

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Tomori made a glorious clearance around the same minute

      They've replayed it a few times now

      Wow!

  9. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 days ago

    That Tomoris save was epic.

      Lmao what the hell was that move

      Beautiful goal

    OMG joelinton

  13. MannionUK
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Help! Lots of possible non starters. 1FT and WC still. Was hoping to keep until GW19/20. What to do?

    Johnstone
    Trippier, Porro, Udogie, Zinchenko
    Son, Palmer, Diaz, Saka
    Nunez, Haaland

    Areola, Kabore, Mubama, Diaby

    1. Bishopool
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      get Salah, if Haalands out

      1. MannionUK
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        Thanks. But potentially no keeper and Trippier out.

        Good idea though. In for Diaby? Then Solanke for Haaland?

      2. Bluetiger1
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        this

    2. Fellaini's Fro
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Anyone in that definitely not starting other than Trippier?

      I think you could get by without WC here

      You could draft a WC now and one in 20 and see which looks better long term

      1. MannionUK
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        Thanks for reply keepers a doubt.

        Would you get Salah if not wildcarding with his blank? I could just swap Haaland for Wilson then WC after blank.

        1. Fellaini's Fro
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 10 days ago

          Yeah If Haaland out think you could probably do a -4 here for Salah and get more value out of the WC in 20

  14. Bishopool
    • 14 Years

    Wow, Joelinton beauty! Cant be much better.

  15. GE
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 days ago

    On wildcard and playing 3-5-2.
    Would you upgrade the bench of Turner, Mengi, Taylor and Osula?

    Just feel I need the bench the odd match and then it feels wrong to put the money at the bench..

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      From Friday, we have four gameweeks in fifteen days. I'd want at least my first sub to be better as there's a high chance he's going to play.

      In short, yes.

      1. Fellaini's Fro
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        You want money on your bench when the fixtures and injuries come hard and fast like now.

        Another mitigation if you're keen on playing lean is to roll 1ft every week

    Odds of Gordon getting a rest against Fulham after being flogged recently?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Very low. He'll get flogged some more

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Low when you see how many on the bench this evening & their list of injuries

    3. 15th Time Lucky
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Even lower given he was taken off early. (Unless he was injured? )

        • 3 Years
        2 years, 10 days ago

        omg looking at the AC Milan side - certain two would love back at the Bridge now

        Tomori - good defender - blue should have kept
        Pulisic & Loftus-Cheek
        Giroud - up front gets better with age
