FPL Marc Broadcaster, writer and overthinker. Hoping that ‘differential potential’ will catch on.

  1. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Start ?

    A Lewis (new)
    B Myko (CRY)

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

    2. CABAYE4
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A

    3. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A

    4. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I'm going Lewis if we get confirmation he's starting. More potential upside and probably similar clean sheet odds.

    5. Moneymar
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A

  2. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    How's this looking for the weekend? Bench is a bit light & obviously if Raya doesn't play I'm a bit stuck..

    Raya
    Konate - Taa - Konsa
    Rogers - Diaz - Saka - Palmer - ESR
    DCL - Haaland (c)

    Begovic - Robinson - Joao Pedro - Johnson

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Nice, similar to mine!

  3. Wet Bandits
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Cheers - do we think Sanchez is the better of him & Flekken? Contemplating the .2 ITB for tinkering later on.

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yep Sanchez slightly better option but it’s close

    2. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’d have Sanchez

    3. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’m doing Pope > Flekken/Sanchez.

      Flekken the popular choice and admittedly has better fixtures.

      Chelsea are the better defence and 3 home games in the next 4 are as good as Brentford’s if you consider which defence is better.

      Just that Liverpool (a) that’s grim for Sanchez.

  4. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Havertz and Porto
    Or
    Solanke and Saliba

    1. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B for me

    2. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

  5. Letsgo!
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Do we think palmer will score at leaast 1 today?

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I predict Chelsea to score well this week.

      Brighton vulnerable to the counter as shown by Nottingham Forest and that’s Chelsea’s strong point.

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

    Is havertz going to be playing CM or in front of Trossard?

    1. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I decided it’s best tk avoid havertz as it’s seems unclear where he plays with odegarrd out

    2. Warby84
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Trossard suspended??

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        No. Suspension was cup midweek

  7. WVA
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Ain’t selling Raya for a hit so here she is, G2G?

    Raya*
    TAA Porro Robinson
    Palmer Saka Diaz ESR Rogers
    Haaland Wood
    Fab Greaves Faes UiJo

    1. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      G2G

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks

  8. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is it worth selling Raya to Flekken for a hit? If we knew how long Raya was out for I think it's worth it. My sub keeper doesn't play.

    Cheers

    1. CABAYE4
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Not worth a hit imo

    2. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Would it not be a better option to change your second keeper?

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

      No cause Flekken will probably concede

    4. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No

    5. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      No

    6. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Hold Raya

  9. Keeptakinghits
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Loving all the WCs with no Salah or Palmer. I'm hoping for some big climbs up the league!

    1. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yeah - I’m one of the WCs and regretting it! My team was fine, torn it apart and lost the value to get it back

      1. Under my Cucurella
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I've had similar thoughts, sold Semenyo and bought him back for more money, ditched the likes of Salah, Watkins, Havertz and others who could still outscore my replacements. The fever took over with this one. Hope we're not all back here complaining later

    2. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I was heavily considering taking Salah out for Saka, then I had a deeper look:

      - Wolves are atrocious
      - Bottom of the league
      - Conceded joint most goals
      - Poor home record

      Think I'll stick for one more week.

    3. NotsoSpursy
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would defo have palmer if I wc

    4. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      We can’t have them all!! But yes wish I could have kept Salah.

    5. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I advise people to bring Palmer in immediately!

  10. Sho-kun
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Really don't know what to do. Worth to WC?

    1FT, 0.6 ITB

    Henderson
    TAA/Porro/Gabriel
    Jota/Salah/Eze/ESR
    Haaland/Pedro/Muniz

    Fabianski/Hall/Winks/Barco

    1. LLoris
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Probably

  11. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who would you captain if you had all 3?

    A) Salah
    B) Haaland
    C) Saka

    1. Wet Bandits
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Saka

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

    A Mbuemo Semenyo
    B Palmer Carvalho

    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Double ars def of gab saliba if raya out?
    Or just one have havertz as 3rd
    Saka in

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I think I'm going Gab and Saliba. There are other decent forward options. Less defenders.

      1. Shearer & Sutton
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        This

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

        Same I think, when fixtures turn in 9-11, can move saliba on to Porro etc, not gonna bench gab
        Can’t bench raya if other keeper is 4.0
        Cheers

    2. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      There is also Calafiori with Gab as an option

  14. Solly The Seagull
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    DCL or Evanilson for next two weeks?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Dcl

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      DCL

  15. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    1 - Play Porro or Konsa?

    2 - Is Jota -> Diaz worth a -4?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Porro
      No

  16. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    A) Pedro -> Solanke
    B) Jota, Pedro -> Mbuemo, Havertz -4
    C) Porro, Jota, Pedro -> Gabriel, Mbuemo, Pedro -> Gabriel, Mbuemo, Solanke -8

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      A

    2. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Get one more in there for a -12

    3. NotsoSpursy
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

  17. Drizzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is Mykolenko and Greaves enough longterm backup for Lewis on a WC? (rest of defence TAA/Gabriel/Lewis).

    I have enough money to upgrade either or both to a 4.5 but should I just bank the money and not squander it on the bench? My other options I'm considering are Milenkovic and/or Colwill.

    1. polis
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      If I had the spare I'd upgrade Greaves to a 4.5

    2. Admiral Benson
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’ve gone for those two as back up to Lewis. The £4.5m are underwhelming. Maybe Colwill or Forest CB at a push.

    3. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would upgrade Mykolenko to a 4.5, either of the two you mentioned or Konsa. Everton have been diabolical

  18. Jstap94
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    So torn with this decision.

    1) Jota, Gordon, Isak to Semenyo, Saka, Solanke
    2) Gordon and Isak to Maddison and Havertz

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      1

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      1

    3. LLoris
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      1

  19. mitre
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Raya
    TAA Robinson Lewis
    Saka Mbeumo Semenyo Rogers
    Haaland Watkins Solanke

    Fab ESR Porro Faes

    0,5m ITB

    All set?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Yep

    2. NotsoSpursy
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Amazing team

    3. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Nice team, I’d play Porro before Robinson

  20. G Banger
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Down to this last decision:
    a) Robbo + 4.0 + 4.0
    b) Konate + 4.5 + 4.5

    Do I spread the love or stick with the budget bench

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Assuming you have 7.1 6.1 6.0 def, I would go A.

      1. G Banger
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Unfortunately not, gone heavy up front so back 5, so it's Gabriel and Konsa to complete the line

    2. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B) given that you have spent the cash up front

  21. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best defender with 4.5 M now on Aina is there any better option ?

    1. Prinzhorn
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Asking myself the same. Konsa? Colwill? Pinnock?

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Yes same here

    2. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Colwill

    3. Admiral Benson
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Brentford CB if not on Flekken. Forest if you are.

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I am on Sels

    4. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I went Konsa.

  22. Miami Monkey
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Start who?

    a) Lewis (new)
    b) Colwill (BHA)

    Bench who?

    c) Wood (FUL)
    d) Rogers (ips)
    e) Semenyo (SOU)

    1. Drizzle

      D

  23. corderz

  24. GoonerGirl
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Priority transfer this week?

    A) Jota> Mbuemo/Diaz
    B)J. Pedro> Solanke/DCL/Wood

  25. Super Silva
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Any Sancho fans?

    Thinking of a cheeky wee differential.

    Morgan gibbs out
    Sancho In

  26. LLoris
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Which one and why?

    A) Saliba DCL/Wood
    B) Mykelenko Havertz

  27. One for All
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is Havertz gonna be playing as cm or striker?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Scoring goals

    2. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      CM I reckon. Be interesting to see how they go without odi

  28. Philosopher's Stones
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    On WC. Pick one.

    4. Die Hard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Depends on your other defenders, if you have TTA then go Porro

  29. Roshen
