    Elanga or sarr better?

    1. Conners
      • 7 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Is this a trick question?

    2. Big Mike
      • 3 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Sarr. because he has back - to - back double game weeks.

  2. niaz1982

    Current team for this week

    Henderson
    Gabriel Huijsen Munoz
    Salah Palmer* Bruno Kluivert
    Woods* Isak Evanilson

    Sub: Sa, TAA*, Burn, Enzo

    Already used my FT this week but thinking of -4 to move Woods to Mateta although doing a WC next week so very annoying.
    Should i roll as is or take the hit?

    1. Tazah
      • 8 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Enzo v tott isn't that bad that it's worth a hit

      1. niaz1982
        • 6 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        More thinking I'll miss out on mateta points this eek! Everytime I play Enzo he never does much!

    Hi all,

    Is the below team GTG and save WC for next week?

    Henderson
    Gvardiol / Gabriel / Cucurella
    Salah / Kluivert / Bowen / Mbuemo
    Marmoush / Wood / Evanilson

    Fabianksi / Dango / Davis / Robinson

    1. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      yeah you can roll with that but I'd expect you to lose points compared to those who WC this week and then how likely are you going to get them back if you just WC to similar team next week

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        mmmm fair point.

        I just think next week allows me to go for a say gordon, Trippier etc. who aren't particularly popular this week. This week threats would be mateta, isak and Munoz based on the template

      2. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
        • 14 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        The argument for waiting is more info on fixtures, so maybe could plan a better BB etc

        If you could manage something like wood > Mateta I think I'd roll

  4. Saka White Rice

    Who is the best keeper to rotate with Raya if plan is to AM31-33 FH34 BB35/36?

    1. FPL_Devil
      • 6 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      I’m on same strategy and I wouldn’t bring in a second keeper yet. You need all the money for the AM.

      1. Saka White Rice
        • 11 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        It's silly to transfer someone in later when on a WC. I personally can afford AM and a 4.5 keeper

    2. Conners
      • 7 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Sels if money no object.

  5. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Once again, appreciate your thoughts!
    AM31 FH34 BB36

    1) Alisson Sels Livra Konsa (open for Arteta AM DGW33)
    2) Raya Sels Livra Konsa
    3) Raya Areola Livra Milenkovic
    4) Raya Areola Trippier Konsa

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Like 1) as gives flexibility and not fully sold on Arsenal double def, 2) gives me Forrest player for possible DGW36, 3) lacks AV for DGW33, on the other hand 4) lacks Forrest

  6. AD105
    • 9 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Howe or Glasner AM 31-33?

    1. Steve McCroskey
      • 12 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Million dollar question. If you find a reasoned answer let me know.

      1. Tazah
        • 8 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        The answer is in the question

  7. The Mighty Whites
    • 10 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    On AM 31-33, FH 34 and BB 36 - I need a backup GK and defender - who are the teams to target for BB36??

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Forrest?

      1. The Mighty Whites
        • 10 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Cheers - would you rather:
        A - Sels, Konsa & Burn
        B - Martinez, N. Williams & Livramento

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          9 months, 1 day ago

          Burn 2yc away from being banned but overall tough to call it, Sels, Liva, Konsa?

          1. The Mighty Whites
            • 10 Years
            9 months, 1 day ago

            0.1 short to leave 0.8 ITB for AM

  8. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Best Kluivert replacement?

    A) Rogers
    B) Savinho
    C) Asensio

    1. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Think I'm going Savinho, but it's a real risk.

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Keep

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        I mean is he injured?

        1. leo_messi
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 months, 1 day ago

          Doubt for GW30

  9. Snoopydog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 1 Year
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Updated WC30 draft (no Haaland, no Kluivert, grrr)

    Raya
    Gabriel Gvardiol Munoz
    Salah Saka Palmer Sarr
    Isak Mateta Marmoush

    Areola Burn Murphy Konsa

    1. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      What is your team value? I'm like 5m off from that...

      1. Snoopydog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 1 Year
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Pre-WC sales was 107.3m (I think). It's now 105.8m.

  10. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    think it's done. Super template but the team just picks itself and can't see any decent differentials anywhere. WC30, BB32, TC33, FH34

    Raya
    Gabriel Gvardiol Munoz
    Salah Palmer Sarr Murphy
    Isak Marmoush Mateta

    Verbruggen; Rogers, Livramento, N.Williams

    1. Snoopydog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Nice. And options vanishing everywhere!

      1. Snoopydog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 1 Year
        9 months, 1 day ago

        And like Neco. Better than Konsa.

  11. Tonyawesome69

    9 months, 1 day ago

    Boring dilemma - first sub

    Nwaneri 20-30 mins v FUL (H)
    Robinson 80-90 mins v ars (A)

    The one with the lowest ownership or highest xMins? Probably both 1-pointers if Fulham concede 2 goals

    1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
      • 14 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Attacker imo. Maybe he even starts and does 60 mins before saka comes on

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Probably Trossard, Merino and Martinelli front 3

  12. Gohn
    • 1 Year
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Hi there! Please choose one:

    a) Palmer + Raúl
    b) Bruno + Mateta
    c) Gordon + Mateta
    d) Sarr + Mateta

    1. Eric Banternaaa
      • 11 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      C

  13. trafalgarlaw
    • 7 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Play Mbeumo or Bruno ?

  14. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
    • 14 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Is Wood to Mateta worth -4 if I'll WC next week anyway? Already have Marmoush.

    Got other doubts on Palmer and now Kluivert. Dango and RAN on bench if I need cover

  15. Punned It
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Bah, Kluivert out? What exactly did Iraola say? I'm fancying Kluivert and Mateta > Eze and Evanilson now. Thoughts?

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        It's either this

        Or kluivert to savinho?

    • royals forever
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      On a WC30 BB32

      What is the best combo for this team out of

      Munoz & Evanilson/Pedro (which one?????)
      Livramento & Mateta

      Raya Verbuggen

      Gabriel Gvardiol Cucurella Konsa xxxxxxxx

      Salah Eze Murphy Sarr Foden

      Isak Marmoush xxxxxxxxx

      Any ideas would be welcomed

      1. Eric Banternaaa
        • 11 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Evanilson

      2. Big Mike
        • 3 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        I'd go for Munoz + Mateta and transfer out Eze.

    • Flynny
      • 10 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Kluivert a doubt!

      On wildcard will replace him with eze

      So need a new striker instead of mateta....who is best - both are bbable in 32

      A....evanilson
      B....pedro

      Thanks

      1. Eastman
        • 8 Years

        Pedro

      2. Eric Banternaaa
        • 11 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        A

        1. Flynny
          • 10 Years
          9 months, 1 day ago

          Might jist do a straight kluivert to savinho instead....

      Hi all,

      Is the below team GTG and save WC for next week?

      Henderson
      Gvardiol Gabriel Mazraoui
      Salah Palmer Bruno Gibbs-White
      Isak Wissa Evanlison

      Fabianski Dango Robinson HB

      Plan to pull trigger on WC tonight to capture price rises/ drops.

    • Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      How likely is it that Wood misses out??

      1. Big Mike
        • 3 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Very.

    • Punk as Fuchs
      • 6 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Currently on:

      Sels
      Gabriel - Gvardiol - RAN
      Salah - Mbuemo - Elanga - Kluivert - Bruno
      JP - Isak

      Fab - TAA* - Wood* - Mykolenko*

      1FT, 2.5ITB, plan to WC in GW31

      Going to do TAA to Munoz, but also considering:

      a) Wood > Mateta for a -4
      b) Wood > Marmoush for a -4
      c) Elanga > Sarr for -4

      What do we think? Ta!

    • eastcountry
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      I weas going Kluivert and Mateta, but now with Kluivert having a potential knock shall I switch to Sarr and Evanlison?

    • Big Mike
      • 3 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      A) Play Sels, bench Bruno and play Munetsi.
      B) Play Areola, bench Munetsi and play Bruno.

    • Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      On w/c
      Kluivert to savinho?
