    Anyone know what the deal is with Charlie taylor? Is he likely to be back for bgw26??

    And what about estu. Can we expect a recall?

    Relying on them for bgw26!! Thanks

      I was just thinking about taking both out and Hwang so I can have 11 in 26.

      1. have you seen cyan

        Taylor dropping tonight I think

          Make sure you check your selling and purchase price.

      Said on a Planet FPL podcast, nerve issue in his neck, like 1-2 months or something. Hasn’t been verified by club or anything so take that as you wish

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years

        Doesn't sound promising!! Thanks

  2. have you seen cyan

    Will most people be fielding 11 in gw26?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I would think folks will take hits to get 11 players to cover both 26 and 29 to make it worthwhile. Also chips could be in play to get 11 as well. Probably won't be a clear chip strategy until we know more on 29

    2. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Probably 10. Deadending into 29/WC30 so mindful of that.

    3. Zenith UK

      If Gordon injury isn't awful I can field a full XI

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Aiming for 10 or 11.

        But probably a couple of hits to get there....

    Moreno haul and Watkins haul makes it hard to get rid of them now…

    1. Flynny
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Might do watkins to darwin

      And get watkins back for Forest in 26

      Why would you ever sell a player who has Man utd (H) next?

    What do we think about Salah folks and the double?? Do we think he will be available for it??

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      We have no idea, depends on his hammy recovery. He will might get 60-120 mins at best if available with the EFL cup final 4 days after the Luton game in mind

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        He might get*

          Cheers mate!! I think your right, will be careful with his minutes I’d imagine prior to the EFL Final

          1. Tonyawesome69
            • 7 Years
            1 year, 10 months ago

            EFL final will be an issue to get the xMins right for all the main Liverpool picks

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              1 year, 10 months ago

              Agreed mate definitely!! Bradley could be good for the Luton game

    2. Qaiss
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I don’t think he’ll start twice after a hamstring injury

      Can’t say that with any certainty though. I’m still worried he’ll turn up on the teamsheet tomorrow against us

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Ah I think you’ll be okay for tomorrow mate!! Haha I wouldn’t worry about that one

    3. JohnnyMarrsGuitar

      I think Salah is as close to a must have player as there is

      but, with everything taken into acount will be going:

      Allison, TAA, Jota

      Current team, around 600K

      Dubravka, Areola
      TAA, Trippier, Porro, Saliba, Branthwaite
      KDB, Jota, Bowen, Saka, Palmer
      Watkins, Alvarez, Solanke

      GW24 - roll transfer
      GW25 - Areola & Porro out, Allison & City DEF in

      Key problem with this plan is a massive HAALAND shaped hole...

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Lovely team mate!! I can get to Salah in one move but would be KDB to make way so I’m rather hoping he’s not available for the double, as it stands I’m
        Looking at just TAA and Jota for the double, likely both in this week , would
        Leave me with TAA, Jota, KDB, Haaland, Rodrigo, Toney and Doughty for the double!!

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          Having no Haaland for the double is brave mate!! Haha

  5. ggfussball

    Gordon likely to go down in price tonight?

  6. theodosios

    Interesting thing: whenever i look which team is the best in current GW, they are mostly from Egypt

    1. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      They do a lot of single gw betting competitions out there. So they are all newly registered teams.

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 14 Years

        To expand, gambling is banned in Egypt so this is a black market variant

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years

      Must be running some sort of pyramid scheme

  7. JohnnyMarrsGuitar
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    You know all those negative FPL posts about template, lack of a player pool, games become boring, etc etc

    Not seen any for ages have we?

    As a player since records began (record back to 06/07) etc, I just want to say: the game is currently absolutely right where we want it to be!

    Captaincy? no idea
    Bench? no idea
    Formation? no idea
    Son, Salah - i cant actually wait for them to come back as i believe they're the only 2 players that are must haves - but they arent here, and it's both terrible and great

    Each week is complete jeapordy and for once all mini league squads have so much variance. Yeah ok you can focus on a less than 1% of content creators / so called celeb types and find a "template" but in reality there has never been such a wide open game.

    Just wanted to say for balance

    I've got 2 FT, but really fancy dropping my WC. Had a shocking few GWs and feel like I need to make some changes.

    Isit a waste if I'm on 2FT?

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Yea

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      You know it is 🙂

    3. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      It is really.

      How much do you want to change that can't be sorted with 2FTs and maybe a hit?

    4. JohnnyMarrsGuitar
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Mate you've got that 12 by your name for a reason: experience of FPL

      step away from the wildcard. with 2 frees you can still do 4 transfers for 8pts and probably sort your team out

    5. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Depends in the state of your team and how many transfers you would like to make to warrant the use of WC

      1. FPL Brains
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Would end on a -24, so that would be 8 transfers.

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          You know that's more than enough changes to use the WC. 2FTs shouldn't stop yoy from hitting the WC IF you feel you want to make wholesale changes

    6. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Yes just do 3 transfers-4

    7. _Greg

      you wanna WC 30 mate

  9. Yes Ndidi
    • 6 Years

    Just watching MOTD. This Barkley chap looks to be a prospect.

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years

      xD

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      He was a prospect at Everton and after that. Could have been a contender.

      1. Yes Ndidi
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Should

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Always does against Newcastle.

    4. NorCal Villan
      • 3 Years

      Turrible

  10. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Gordon to Jota no brainer?

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I am, but my lack of a brain is well documented.

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Not a no browner no. He blanks in 26 and doesn’t have a confirmed double in 25 yet. Is there any chance Pool don’t have a double in 25? I would lol

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          Ok thanks

    3. Stranger Mings

      Y

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      If he makes it through the Arsenal game tomorrow then good transfer for 24

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        I prefer darwin to jota for the dgw

        I might bench gordon in he is jisy a doubt rather than a fill blown injury

        Can easily bench him in 24

  11. Jebiga
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    When do we expect salah back?
    For dgw 25?
    And how bad is his injury?

  12. Hanz0
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    0.4m short of Alvarez to Haaland and priced out if I don't move tonight

    Any objections to selling Areola >> Kelleher (3.7m GK) and rely solely on Dubravka?

    Dubravka: Nfo A, Bou H, Ars A, Wol H
    Areola: Ars H, Nfo A, Bre H, Eve A

    Only other obvious route to free up funds would be to sell Estupinan - but he plays in the blank and has Sheffield in GW25 and could do damage if he comes back into the starting XI

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Takes up a liverpool spot

      1. Hanz0
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Valid point, have TAA too and could want Salah & Jota in near future - especially if I decide to use FH in 26

    2. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Big if though. He might not feature much in either.
      Can you drop him to Van Hecke for free?
      Who are your other defenders?

      1. Hanz0
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Other defenders are Porro, Trent, Gusto and Taylor

        1. Yes Ndidi
          • 6 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          Hmm. You really want someone a bit more exciting than Van Hecke then. Still a viable 3rd Defender.
          Or Robinson to rotate with Gusto. Plays in 26 & 29 too.

  13. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Sorting my team for gw26 is boring as. No money and stinky picks

  14. Jebiga
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Would you do Bowen and Alvarez to Kdb and Darwin for free?
    Or just wait for Salah...?

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Bowen is an interesting one. Has a lovely fixture in BGW26.
      KdB is a must have though.
      Not sure Darwin is an upgrade on Alvarez though.

      How long do you wait for Salah? Might be available for the double, but how fit will he be? Then blanks and plays Forest away & Man City. Then probably blanks again.

      1. Jebiga
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        You got the point

  15. afsr
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Areola
    Porro, TAA, Gabriel
    Saka, Foden, Richarlison, Palmer
    Haaland, Watkins, Solanke

    Dubravka, Bowen, Senesi, Estu
    1FT, 0.0 ITB

    A - Senesi, Bowen -> Branthwaite, Jota (-4)
    B - your suggestions

    1. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Bowen to Jota.

      1. afsr
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        I'm 0.1 short

  16. Make FPL Casual Again
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    2 gws to get the best 2 or 3 Liverpool assets, probably worth a hit to get 2, Jota/TAA in for BUR...

    Issue is who to take out....

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      You think Trent starts both?

      1. Make FPL Casual Again
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Why wouldnt he ? Could get minutes managed....but just taking the 3 fixtures as a block, hauls obv possible

  17. Rock n Grohl
    • 15 Years

    Bloody hell Bramall Lane emptied quickly

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Fantasyfootballhub the best price predictor this year? FPLstats has Haaland rising but has been wrong so many times this season including on Haaland's original rise. Inclined to back FFHub which has him on +88% and wait.

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Hub has been way more accurate recently

  19. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Which City assets to own besides Haaland? I have Foden, but he surely won't play two games — but it does seem scary (or even silly) to sell before a DGW.

    Also, another one if I may: Bowen to Jota kind of a no-brainer?

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Jota in, yes. Bowen out I'm less convinced about.

      Haaland and Kevin, then take your pick. Minutes will be shared between Bilva, Foden, Alvarez, Doku, Nunes & Grealish. Maybe even Bobb.

      If you want guaranteed minutes, then Rodri.
      I'm going with Alvarez simply because I still own him from way back.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Very helpful, much appreciated.

  20. Flynny
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on watkins to darwin and buy watkins for Forest in 26?

    Can bench gordon if he is doubtful for the next game

    Will do gordon to jota if gordon out for a while. Thanks

    Dubravka (areola)
    Taa porro gabriel (estu taylor)
    foden richarlison palmer gordon (saka)
    Haaland solanke watkins

    1. sirmorbach
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I'm not selling Watkins after that.

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Depends how I want to get kdb for 25.

        If I sell watkins in 24 I can upgrade palmer to kdb in 25

        If u do solanke to darwin in 24,, I need to lose saka to get kdb

        1. sirmorbach
          • 9 Years
          1 year, 10 months ago

          I would lose Saka.

    2. jammie26
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Watkins at home to United..yes please.

    3. Jebiga
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Not Watins

  21. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Can’t be serious. Drinking?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Replay fail to above

  22. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Foden to KDB, Bowen to Neto, Estu to Doughty. - 4. Yay or nay?

    1. Jebiga
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Nope. Why not both foden and kdb?
      Bowen is fine to go but why dumping estu?

      1. sirmorbach
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        In this case, funds + his benching today.

        I'm unsure about Foden tbh.

        Thanks, mate.

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I'd want to give Foden another watch with KDB + Foden + Haaland in the team. I'm still not convinced KDB is a good value asset and will limit the ability to get Salah back if he comes back soon.

    With Liverpool blanking in 26 how many of their players will you have for double 25, particularly if you have Spurs, Chelsea and Luton players who are also blanking in 26?

    1. Flynny
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      2

      Already got trent. Will get one of jota or darwin

      Prefer darwin but depends on Gordon injury

    2. Hanz0
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Trying to figure that out now.

      Have Richarlison, Porro, Palmer. Gusto and TAA all set to blank.

      Estupinan and Taylor also concerns. Could be without 7 players and that is without the likes of Jota who I'd ideally like for the double.

      Want to use FH and go triple liverpool but the Blank in 29 could be even worse with even fewer games

    3. syke63
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Three city, no pool, Porro, Palmer. Will bring in Darwin and either Jota or Toney for 5 doubles. If i bring in Jota I'll sell Palmer in 26 for eleven or save.

    4. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      one and a half Liverpool, one Spud, one Chelsea. Would ideally do Jota to Son afterwards but doesn't help in 26.

  24. Hanz0
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Too risky to use Free Hit in GW26 with the blanks in GW29 being greater in number and harder to navigate?

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      The quality of fixtures in 29 needs to improve to warrant a FH there. Trouble is the full line-up for 29 will be revealed post GW26 deadline.
      So yes, probably.

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      so few games gw29 I am not sure the fh will be worth it.

      1. Hanz0
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        It's the chance of there being few games on that worries me - especially if they are lower level teams playing who I don't own. Would struggle to field 6 players.

        Only Brentford, Spurs, Burnley and Fulham confirmed to play so far. Could be a maximum of 7 blanks

  25. JBG
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Pick one.

    A) Neto (BRE)
    B) Barkley (SHU)

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I'd hate to bench either, who else do you have?

        Ah should have prefaced it with, "pick one to transfer in".

          Ah sorry, both are solid options, I brought Neto in this week, Wolves are in good goalscoring form and have good fixtures. Barkley has good fixtures too of course with 3 games at home in the next 4 and the double, if you can cover GW26 he probably has the edge

    Which rough option looks better....think I'm going to have to take quite a big hit in 26.....thanks

    Dubravka (areola)
    Taa porro gabriel (estu taylor)
    foden richarlison palmer gordon (saka)
    Haaland solanke watkins

    Option A

    24....watkins to darwin
    25.....palmer and porro to kdb and branthwaite - 4
    Gives me about 9 starters for gw26

    Option B

    24...solanke to darwin
    25...saka to kdb
    Gives me just 7 or 8 starter for 26

      Watkins to Darwin will end it tears

      Not even Solanke to Darwin imo

      You have 10 probable starters already and you sell one and buy two the following week gives you eleven in option A. Am I misreading this?

    Having Watkins but losing rank sucks! The top 200k is so tight, it's equivalent to top 20k from 10years ago, but feel weird how big the swings can be.

      Trust me, not having Watkins after that is far worse 😛

      Similar rank with Watkins and watching my rank fall tiny increments while he clocked up the points was not as painful as how the guy in my mini league who sold him for Solanke felt. Just glad I had him.

    As things stand I only have 8 players for gw26, surely unless I Fh (which I am not keen on), wc is the best option? the next big dgw will be the teams not playing gw29, is that correct? cheers

      just read flynny post above, are folks not expecting to field a full 11 for gw26?? cheers

    Wow, Watkins not even on the XGI list?! Fair play to captainers

    Starting to get a bit tricky to have KDB at his current price along Salah & Haaland if you wanna maintain a decent overall squad.

      Very few active players will have those three
      together atm but plenty will be hoping that Salah won't be fit for the dgw cos all of them are probably impossible to fit into a decent squad.
