    Who would you recommend for a decent 4.4m or less defensive pick for the next few GW's?

    1. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Gusto? Its slim pickings tbh.

      1. mattymjp
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        That's the only name I came up with too

      Doughty

    3. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Branthwaite. Albeit GW19 not such a good pick. Good 4th or 5th defender.

    Save FT or use one to shift Tsimikas or bring in Saka? (Sadly 0.2 off affording Palmer > Saka)

    Leno (Areola)
    Trippier - Trent - Porro (Taylor, Tsimikas*)
    Salah (c) - Son (vc) - Bowen - Gordon (Palmer*)
    Watkins - Solanke - Archer

    1. GE
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Save

  4. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Who would you start?

    A - Porro
    B - Saliba

    1. GE
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      A

    2. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Saliba, I think. Around evens chance of clean sheet.

    3. Mighty Wings
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Never bench Porro

      1. kempc23
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Im not sure Porro is in the “never bench” class like TAA, Tripper, Baines etc.

        He has only got higher than 6 points twice this season (7,8).

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          He is in the sense that a CS prob unlikely but has attacking threat and a chance of baps.

        2. Mighty Wings
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          12 goal attempts, 8 shots in the box, 12 chances created in the last 4 gameweeks is pretty solid I would say. Compare that to Saliba...

          1. kempc23
            • 11 Years
            1 year, 11 months ago

            He is away to Brighton though. Probably less than 20% chance of a clean sheet? He of course has a chance for attacking returns but an Arsenal clean sheet is far more likely, IMO.

            This week I wouldnt be surprised if Porro gets 1-2 points and Saliba gets 6 or 7.

        3. Make FPL Casual Again
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          This is the problem. Think he has been overhyped.

          Spurs lack of cs means less haul chances etc

        4. PompeyUpNorth!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          He may not have got the points so far, but as a non owner I’ve checked the under lying stats n he’s very attacking plus haul incoming soon imo

  5. GE
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    What would you do with 2FT here? 🙂 Archer -> Darwin/Nkunku for a one week punt maybe? Or Turner -> Areola and rotate with Dubravska maybe?

    (2FT, 3.5 itb)

    Dubravka (Turner)
    TAA/Porro/Gabriel (Mengi, Pau*)
    Salah/Son/Saka/Richarlison (Palmer*)
    Watkins/Solanke/Archer

    1. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      You are in a decent position. Team is as good as it gets for this week. I would get Darwin then ditch for Haaland next week?

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Thanks, could work out yes

        1. Zenith UK
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          Stay away from Darwin

  6. v3n0m
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Bench one:
    a) Bowen
    b) Gabriel
    c) Martinelli

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      C

    2. Erez Avni
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      c

  7. Skout
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    How’s this plan?
    GW19 Tsim to Porro
    GW20 Darwin to Haaland
    GW21 Cash and Salah to TAA and Bowen

    2FT, 7.4 itb

    Dubravka
    Branthwaite Andersen Taylor
    Salah Son Saka Gordon
    Watkins Darwin Archer

    Turner Palmer Tsimikas Taylor

  8. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Dubravka Areola
    Porro Gabriel Livramento Cash Taylor
    Saka Bowen Salah Son Palmer
    Alvarez Watkins Solanke

    Can’t get to trent in one move, need to free up 0.2m. Do I just roll transfer or find 0.2 somewhere and do a hit?

  9. Slitherene
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Lascelles to which defender for the next 3?

    1. JollyGoodYellows
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Branthwaite is the only one I can see at that price but Doughty if budget allows.

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I am considering TAA.

  10. kempc23
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Thats a tough one, as Livramento, Cash and Taylor might end up on negative points between them this week!

    Not even sure when you would get the £0.2m from either, assuming you are trying to do Cash to TAA.

  11. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Slapped the C on solanke. I hope he explodes

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Could well bomb.

      1. PartyTime

      Classic case of last week's points imo.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Could well work out. He surely can’t just lose his shooting boots… plum fixture too

          • Has Moderation Rights

          Bold for the C though.

          For what it's worth, hope you're rewarded!

          1. PartyTime
            • 4 Years
            1 year, 11 months ago

            🙂 thank you. I have secretly always enjoyed the way you play the game so no surprise you’re doing well.

            Good luck too

  12. Roshen
    • 3 Years

    best under 5.5 def?

    1. GreennRed

      1 year, 11 months ago

      Botman.

    2. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Gabriel

    3. Lav
      • 9 Years

      Everton / Arsenal defenders

  13. JollyGoodYellows
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    What to do with 2 FTs here,l? Only 0.1itb. I guess I play Haaland given I've kept him the past 2 GWs? Could do Lascelles to Branthwaite?

    Dubravka
    Porro Gabriel Lascelles
    Salah Saka Son Gordon
    Haaland Watkins Solanke

    Areola Gusto Taylor Palmer

    1. Bleh
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Yeah probably, not sure Lascelles plays with his injury and Burn/Botman returning.

    2. Lav
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Bring in Branthwaite

  14. ABCDEFC

    Am I mad to be considering Eze over Richarlison. Palace talisman, on pens + set pieces, nailed 90 mins, playing a more advanced no.10 role. Top underlyings this year and only 6.0m. Someone I’m happy to own long term too unlike Richy who’s probably a sell after AFCON

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Nice one!

      I'd go Richa still.

    2. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Eze isnt fully fit yet. i wouldnt call him nailed for 90 minutes, he has had several injury problems this season.

      Why would you ditch Richarlison after Afcon?

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        That’s my only worry with Eze but he’s been back a few weeks now and built up mins. Not confident on Richy mins w Son

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          Not getting dropped in current form. Debeatable how long it will last. Sell when it stops.

    4. Bleh

      I started the season with Eze. Never again.

      1. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years

        Same here but he was very unlucky. Nearly 0.7 xgi this year. Crazy value for 6.0m

      Agreed

    4. Lav

      Agree. Disheartening when you answer and get nothing back. Easier when its less busy though

    5. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I agree. It does take a bit of work to be informed but a bit of research and watching matches provides information that others find useful and good to share

    6. FCSB

    Wondering if a lot of downside to using free hit earlier this season? Have only 9 starting playing atm thanks to Sterling and Palmers antics!

    1. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I wouldnt…. Two transfers should cost you -4. Surely a freehit is worth more than 4 points later in the season?

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Beats my getting Palmer for a hit before his yc

    3. notlob legin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I generally use FH in a double game week - far more upside. A -4 will probably cover you for this week and save the chip for a much higher upside

    Any updates on Haaland or KDB?

    1. FCSB

        Ta, think too early for both

  27. Fat Frank

    Will Nkunku be nailed and do we think he starts this week?

    Tempted to get him and Bowen this week…

    1. Lav

      Dont touch Chelsea. Trust me

    2. GreennRed

      Too soon to get Nkunku.

      Bowen is good.

    3. ONLYPEPKNOWS
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Don’t think he’ll be starting for the next GWs. Too soon after his return

    4. F4L
      • 10 Years

      wouldnt want a nkunku without sterling and palmer vs palace defence. and then doubt he starts twice in quick succession after long lay off

      bowen good

    5. Tonyawesome69

    Who to bench
    a) Colwill (CRY)
    b) Gabriel (WHU)

    Having Bowen means bench Gabriel? Can Chelsea even get a clean sheet?
