    No FT. and no FH29
    Zabarnyi to:
    A - Estu
    B - Pau
    C - Not for -4

    1. The Mentaculus

      You mean Zabarnyi in for, not "to"..?

    2. Traction Engine Foot

      Assuming you're selling Estu, him to Pau probably makes more sense if you're not using FH in 29.

      1. Bucket Man

        1 year, 9 months ago

        If you mean Zabarnyi in for Etsu or Pau then Etsu, not playing as regularly and no fixture next GW where you won’t be using the FH so keep Pau.

        I wouldn't trust Pau in his current condition with Europa League in the mix. Konsa should be the better option

      A

  2. Traction Engine Foot

    Best option on WC of these?

    A Kudus
    B Bailey
    C Barkley
    D Maddison

    Whoever I choose will be sold for Salah in GW30.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Hmm I think I'd go for Bailey. Pretty close with Maddison who I expect could pick up an assist this weekend but I think that Fulham might be a bit tougher than most are expecting, and West Ham defence would be my no.1 target in 29 (of those listed here, excluding Burnley)

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Think I’d go for Maddison closely followed by Kudus with a good fixture this week. Bailey has looked great but could share minutes with Diaby who made an impact off the bench last week.

      D

    4. Traction Engine Foot
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Thanks all, seems nobody is keen on Barkley and I'm inclined to agree, depsite the extra game... The rest of my midfield is Son, Bowen, Saka, Luiz, so if I got Maddison or Bailey they'd probably be benched for Luiz this week, whereas I'd play Kudus over Luiz.

  3. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON

    Bench:

    A) Haaland (I know)
    B) Maddison

    1. Gon Freecss
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning A)

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

        Even I am

    2. 112kane112
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      There just MUST be someone else in the starting 11 you can bench.

      If it's straight between these two, then B.

  4. Gon Freecss
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    It's a ridiculous question, I know ...

    But I have to bench one:

    A) Son
    B) Foden
    C) Haaland
    D) Watkins
    E) Bowen
    F) Saka
    G) Ode

    Was initially on Son, but now I'm leaning Foden or Haaland

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Are you playing 4-3-3? Who's your 8th attacker?

      1. Gon Freecss
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        3-4-3

        Solanke

        1. Gon Freecss
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Formation depends who I bench though

        2. Gon Freecss
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Could also be 3-5-2

        3. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Ah, I see. "Slighty tough" decision!! I'd look at history of the LIV v MCY match before making a decision. Although it freaks me out to even think of it, I'd agree with your initial assessment. Or possibly Ode because of ownership? Whoever you choose could, unfortunately, be very wrong. Good luck - but it's your fault for having such a good squad! 😀

    2. Gommy
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Tough, I would agree with either Foden or Haaland. Probably Foden.

      1. Gon Freecss
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Thanks, yeah I think that makes sense. I'm trying to weigh up - who would Liverpool be most successful at restricting. But it's probably very marginal between the two

    3. Mother Farke
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Yeah, has to be one of Haaland or Foden here. Surely you don't need double City attack at Anfield! If it was any team other than City, you wouldn't...

    4. 112kane112
      • 7 Years

      B

  5. Pedersen

    1 year, 9 months ago

    Having Trippier and Hwang, but nothing ITB and only 1ft, whom should I get? Should I focus on defender ?
    I will FH29

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Trippier to Bournemouth defender probably

    2. Gommy
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I had the same decision this week but without the money constraint. I went Trippier > Zabarnyi. I plan to FH29.

      1. Pedersen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Sounds like the right move to do. Cheers

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Would be easier to answer if you posted your full team & money itb. But since it seems like your bench is Taylor Reguilon Hwang (correct? I checked your previous posts) I think the defender move is more urgent as Taylor/Reguilon would be lucky escape this week with a single point to their names

      1. Pedersen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Thanks. I see you went up and above.
        Yes I think defense would be best, and answers says the same. I will look into Zab from Bou

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Difficult as Hee Chan is out longer than Trippier but Trippier is expensive. Probably Trippier to release funds

  6. lilmessipran

    Scoreline predictions for Liverpool vs City? I am on 1-1.

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

      Same. 1-1

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      2-2 Salah equaliser

    3. Traction Engine Foot
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      1-1 seems about right

  7. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    trippier to doughty or a bournemouth defender? cheers.

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Depends on 29

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        FH 29. thanks

        1. 112kane112
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          BOU

  8. Keeptakinghits
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Bench Palmer, Foden, Son or even Haaland?

    I think one of the 1st two

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Foden reluctantly

      1. Keeptakinghits
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Thanks, I was swaying that way. Minileague leader I'm trying to chase has Foden but not Palmer so hopefully that will give a little differential.

        Liverpool look tight and City not been performing great, even though winning, but vs weak teams.

        Newcastle looks a mess defensively too, whilst Chelsea seem to be in better form now.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Tough one. I suggest having a look at any models e.g. FPL Review free model for expected points and bookies odds for each player/ team for expected goals to help make a decision

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

    Thinking of playing kdb over foden as a differential. Foden the form player but kdb could come good in a big game. Too risky?

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Risky benching decision either way but tbh I don't like using EO as the decider

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

        Hoping he hauls as most would start foden

  10. M1lkyBarK1d
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1 year, 9 months ago

    Is it worth a -8 to field only 8 players in GW29 to avoid using a FH? Or should I just play the FH.

    GW29 would be
    areola
    Doughty
    Kabore (Been my 3rd sub since the start)
    Son
    Bowen
    Morris
    Watkins
    Muniz

    Im thinking/hoping to get more points using FH later, poss GW34

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      That looks ok, just missing something like Bailey & Toney. So if that's around 10pts +8, see if you think you can do better than that with the projected fixtures for FH34:

      • 12 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I'm not FH-ing in 29, even tho I will only have 7 starters max. I think there are greater gains in a FH in 34 or 37. Only 4 games in 29, they could all finish 1-1 with random goalscorers.

  11. Malkmus

    A'noon all. GTG? 0FT 2.9 ITB

    Areola (dub)
    Gabriel - Walker - Zabarnyi
    Saka - Son - Palmer - KDB
    Haaland - Solanke (c) - Watkins

    Subs - Gordon, Van Hecke, Branth,

    Right to bench Gordon?
