    So nearly a Haaland g Foden a 🙁

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years

      Not Haaland. Cherki.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Haaland almost followed up the Foden shot. I think that's what he means.

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          1 day, 8 hours ago

          Yup

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Foden shot saved by keeper, Haaland couldn’t quite reach the rebound

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          1 day, 8 hours ago

          Ah right

          1. Royal5
            • 14 Years
            1 day, 8 hours ago

            Read it as almost a Haaland g Foden

  3. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    John Victor get in my team!

  4. F4L
    • 11 Years

  5. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

      2. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Don’t know but hope it’s close!

  7. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    City should take Haaland off.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Yup

  8. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

      The embargoed presser was recorded after the Palace game on Tues and released yesterday

    Gab on bench, is Hincapie an immediate transfer out?

    1. keefy59
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      More hits incoming
      As everyone tries to squeeze Gab back into their teams

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Timber to Gab?

    2. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      At least Gab is an immediate transfer in

      1. keefy59
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        1 day, 8 hours ago

        Yes but what about those with
        Only 1 free transfer & £0m in the bank

  10. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    I own Van Den Berg, Esteve & Timber 🙂

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      Hope you've got a strong bench!

  11. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    I know damned well that I captained Ekitike but lo and behold I now see that Haaland is my captain.
    Question: do FPL sessions time out after a long time? My brower said Ekitike(c), so even if Haaland scores a hattie in the last 10 minutes (which he won;t) I won't deserve it.

    1. Bigbars
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      Yes, Sometimes they can do, Ive had that occur to me previously, especially with price changes during transfers, so I always go back into my team to ensure the change has been confirmed

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 day, 7 hours ago

        Thank you. I have been warned so I must double check in future.

  12. g40steve

    Gonz is terrible

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      Agree, nervous performance

  13. JBG
    • 7 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    Play it safe, you get fcked. Play risky, you get fcked. Fck this season

    1. Utopsis
      • 5 Years

      Liverpool not guaranteed to bang, Wolves in full bus parking mode

  14. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    That Wolves left side is muy Bueno

  15. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    Having only one playing sub on the bench is starting to look like a bad idea.

    1. Utopsis
      • 5 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      That's always been a bad idea to be fair

    2. Gazwaz80
      • 6 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      Haha, same…

  16. Alexis Nonsense
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 8 hours ago

    Timber not even on bench, so should be sickness or injury?

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      I’ve read online that it’s supposedly a rest

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 8 hours ago

      You can rule out sickness, he was with the squad in the pre-match walk
