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

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

    Captain:

    1. Haaland
    2. Saka

    1. iFash@FPL
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Haaland

  2. henrysquire
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Saka or Haaland C?

    1. The Hunt
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I've gone Saka. I think Arsenal have a better chance of mauling their opposition than City.

    2. Udogie-style
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Salah

      1. Udogie-style
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Saka even

  3. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best 4.5 MID?

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Dibling

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

        This

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

    Anyone else playing their Wildcard and not bringing in Haaland?

    1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      After 5 weeks without him and a 4.5m rank I can't face it anymore

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

      Surely Not

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

      Just me them 🙂

      Wish me luck!

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

        *then

    4. JBG
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I would tbh.

      If I didn't like points

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

      No way Jose. It’s H as the permanent captain

  5. Udogie-style
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Morning all.
    I have J. Pedro and Welbeck, with 1FT remaining.
    Should I...

    A) Play Welbeck, roll FT
    B) Pedro to Wood, bench Welbeck
    C) Pedro to Duran, bench Welbeck
    D) Pedro to Ndiaye (freeing up cash for next week). Unsure whether to play him or Welbeck.

    Cheers.

  6. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Faes or Greaves on WC?

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

      Faes

    2. Udogie-style
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Greaves

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

      Greaves

  7. Giovanni Giorgio
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    I have 0.5 extra and could bring in a 4.5 to cover for Raya if he's out.
    Worth it?

    1. Just a fountain
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      That's what Im doing. Raya + Muric is cheaper than Saliba in some way

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

      I was thinking of this but decided the .5 could be better spent elsewhere.

      Have switched to Sanchez and put another Arsenal attacker in instead (Havertz)

  8. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Start one:

    A) Konsa
    B) Lewis

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

      B is the best option, hoping he plays much more going forward

  9. Saka Punch
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Raya and Jota or Flekken and Diaz?

    1. Udogie-style
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B

    2. iFash@FPL
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      B, given the uncertainty surrounding Raya.

  10. Tesejas
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Hello all,

    Currently on wildcard.

    Team A
    Flekken
    Gabriel, Saliba, TAA
    Mbeumo, Diaz, Saka, Semenyo
    Haaland, Solanke, Calvert Lewin
    Bench: Valdimarsson/Rogers/Greaves/Faes (would you play Rogers or DCL)?

    Team B
    Flekken
    Gabriel, Saliba, TAA
    Saka, Palmer, Mbeumo, Diaz, Semenyo
    Haaland, Wood
    Bench: Valdimarsson/Greaves/Faes/Stewart

    Thank you guys!

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

      A and play DCL.

      1. Tesejas
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thank you!

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

      Nice drafts. I also like A

  11. scarlet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is anyone else on a WC thinking about upgrading their second GK to someone who will start today (say Muric or Flekken) and then auto-subbing in if Raya doesn’t make it? It does mean some lost cash on the bench most weeks but offers the opportunity of an early bench boost (say GW10 when IPS play LEI at home) so you can get it out the way then focus on pumping cash into the first 11.

    1. Just a fountain
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Exactly what im doing.Better than taking saliba in and saving a transfer in the future.

    2. Giovanni Giorgio
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I'm currently on this plan aswell.

    3. MIGHTY JOE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I did until last night. But ended with just Flekken + 4.0

  12. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Havertz will play in midfield today?

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

      All I know is my gut says maybe..

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

      Reckon yes

  13. MIGHTY JOE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    WC G2G? 0 itb.

    Flekken
    TAA Saliba Gabriel
    Saka Mbeumo Semenyo Diaz
    Haaland DCL Jackson

    Fabianski Rogers Greaves Faes

    Also, start Rogers or DCL?

    1. Rico123
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Unlikely to really matter but if you’re going Flekken and 4.0 GK then would Valdi make more sense than Fab for your second keeper?

      1. Rico123
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Otherwise looks good

        But I’d start Rogers over DCL personally

      2. Glasner Ball
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        This

      3. MIGHTY JOE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Cheers! Will do the switch

  14. klopp it guys
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Will Lewis start?

    1. iFash@FPL
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      He’s currently first on my bench. Hope we get some leaks before the deadline.

      1. klopp it guys
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Yea same, I have him in my starting 11 fingers crossed

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

      I’m playing him. We may get early news

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

    If you owned both who would you Captain;

    A) Haaland
    B) Salah

    Cheers.

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

      Salah

    2. Evasivo
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      C
      vc

    3. iFash@FPL
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      C & VC in that order.

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

      A permanent captain

  16. Jebiga
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Any leaks?

  17. Evasivo
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Field Konsa or Lewis??

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

      I decided Lewis

  18. liboo
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Salah or Halland captain ?

  19. Ranger3
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Van Den Berg is too risky ?

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

      Only if you plan on starting him

      1. Ranger3
        • 9 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        next week yes

  20. Just a fountain
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    13.0 to spend in the last 3 defenders. Currently Milinkevic, Colwill, Greaves. Anything better in mind?

  21. Slitherene
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Could Foden be a good punt for this week?

    1. Merlin the Wraith
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      He's currently in my starting XI pending any team leaks with ESR on the bench.

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      no

  22. bobson5
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Start Mykolenko or Robinson?

    1. iFash@FPL
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 2 months ago

      I’m even starting Keane over Robinson.

      1. patricio33
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I don't see Keane in any of the starting lineups I've seen for this GW.

        1. iFash@FPL
          • 1 Year
          1 year, 2 months ago

          With Braithwaite back, his chances of starting are slim but some sites still have him in the starting lineup:

          https://www.fantasyfootballpundit.com/fantasy-premier-league-team-news/

          https://draftfc.co.uk/predicted-lineups/

          1. iFash@FPL
            • 1 Year
            1 year, 2 months ago

            In any case, I hope he stays put on the bench if he doesn’t start.

  23. Just a fountain
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Is Digne nailed?

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

      No. Should start this week but him and Maatsen will likely rotate throughout the season.

      1. boc610
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        could be league digne and maatsen european games though

        1. Just a fountain
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 2 months ago

          Thank you both

  24. Fat Frank
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Any news on if Foden starts? Not sure whether to pull the trigger on selling him to Saka

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

      There should be a team leak closer to deadline

      1. Fat Frank
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Thanks!

  25. thegame983
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    The annoying thing about Raya is that I would a price drop to bring him back. 0.0 in the bank

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

      Same here. Just leaving him in.

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

    Ederson instead of raya and Lewis?

    Then Go with gab an saliba.

    In 9-11 when ars fixtures get tricky, can go saliba to porro , keep gab

    Ederson has sou, Bourne, Brighton 9-11
    Raya has pool new Chel, would have to play him if got 4.0 keeper , along with gab for 3 tricky fixtures

  27. Bruno Commando
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Why is Flekken a better pick than Sels for WC-ers?

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

      Already have Aina, don't want double defence.

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        I see! Thanks!

    2. Just a fountain
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Im on Sels. But people mentioned additional competition, and the ability to have a 4.0 2nd GK in BRE.

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 2 months ago

        Fair point. But I think Forest is better defensively so should target that especially since I don't have a Forest defender.

  28. Dillonb93
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Who to captain? Salah or saka

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      Mo

  29. Kane Train
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    Best option?

    A) Kepa
    B) Flekken
    C) Ramsdale

  30. Supernova
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 2 months ago

    On WC.

    A. Jackon + Ederson/Flekken/Sanchez + money ITB for Raya
    B. Watkins + Flekken

    A bit torn on this. I think Jackson has the form and real potential, Watkins has been off it but is proven.
