    Thiago to J.Pedro?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Is he nailed?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        1 day, 21 hours ago

        no but I think he will do well in view of the fixtures. he's in my wc draft just now

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          As long as you know you'll be patient, it could be a good move

          I know I'm not

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Not for me, he'll share starts/mins with Delap

    3. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      What purchase price?

  2. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    All Villa DCs are in the midfield

  3. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I missed the match...

    Mbeumo in, triple United? Dorgu looks essential...

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Just wonder if Dorgu can keep Cunha out of the team, ideally would wait for the Fulham match
      The injury might not be 100% cramp either?

      Patrick Dorgu coy on his injury: “We’ll see.” He was walking with a limp as he left #mufc
      Michael Carrick on Patrick Dorgu: “He came off with a cramp. Hopefully, it's not too bad.” #mufc

    2. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Wait for Dorgu injury news

    3. R Whites
      • 10 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      I want mbeumo, but don’t know who to lose!

      Rice, Enzo, Rogers, Wilson….

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        1 day, 21 hours ago

        Easy Wilson for me. The fixtures aren't even good in the short term. mun EVE mcy is terrible really.

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          Liverpool, Chelsea, Brighton weren't the easiest fixtures tbf

        2. R Whites
          • 10 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          I have made so much value on him. Seems hard to let go…

    4. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Isn't Dorgu the one who injured his hammy?!? Or have I made a mistake? But imo it wasn't Dalot.

    5. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Bruno n Mbeumo 100% and defence looks good.

  4. R Whites
    • 10 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Best Ekitike replacement ?

    Pedro
    Watkins
    Bowen.

    have enzo and rogers.

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Those Chelsea fixtures look appealing

      1. R Whites
        • 10 Years
        1 day, 21 hours ago

        Yeah agreed, just the rotation risk with palmer and delap.

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Pedro

    3. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Not sure he's a sell

  5. F4L
    • 11 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    I respect the defenders and midfielders who don't get to their defcon thresholds predominately through clearances and ball recoveries respectively alot more. proper all round defensive performances. maybe they could do something about that next season but i guess its alright as is

  6. JBG
    • 7 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    0.39 xG from open play is diabolical for a league leader at home in a important match like this.

    1. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Arsenal Will still win the league don't worry mate

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Just playing for corners with those players is scandalous

  7. Tinmen
    • 12 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Folks. Is this worth a -4?

    Rice and Ekitike to
    Bruno and Pedro

    Need cash freed up to afford Bruno

    1. R Whites
      • 10 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Good move, just not sure about a hit, phased?

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Why would you sell Rice...

      1. Tinmen
        • 12 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        He’s done nothing for me in 3 weeks. He’s a CDM for an Arsenal team struggling and competing on all fronts.

        Bruno and Pedro seem to have more upside right now especially given fixtures and form.

        I wouldn’t hesitate if it was for free, but -4 makes me ask the question

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          Did you watch him in those 3 GWs, or check stats?

        2. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          Struggling is a real stretch. They beat Inter Milan 3-1 midweek and are top of the table. It seems super reactionary to dump the 2nd highest scoring mid in the game when their fixtures are good also.

          1. Tinmen
            • 12 Years
            1 day, 20 hours ago

            All about timing in this game for me.

            I am confident Bruno outscores Rice enough to justify the transfer and price difference

    3. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      No you keep Rice forever I'm afraid

  8. MVDP
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 1 Year
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Ouch. Just seen my main rival played his triple captain on Haaland.

    1. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Have a wry smile

  9. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Which two to play?

    A. Konate(NEW)
    B. Tarkowski(bha)
    C. Cunha(FUL)
    D. Thiago(avl)

  10. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Last Man Standing Update (331 teams)

    Current safety score = 28
    Top score = 66

  11. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    how many arsenal on wc apart from gab?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Decent chance for DGW26 so you probably dont want to pencil a transfer in.

    2. JBG
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Rice is still a keep imo.

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      3

    4. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      I'm waiting for Calafiori for triple defence

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 19 hours ago

      cheers all

  12. donbagino
    • 5 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Better move:
    a) Gordon -->Enzo
    b) Saka --Mbuemo

    I know Saka i better than Gordon but what about Enzo vs Mbuemo?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Gordon out makes more sense.

    2. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      I would do both moves for a hit 2bh

  13. AD105
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Mbeumo or Semenyo on WC? Own Bruno/Haaland

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      mbeumo but I am getting both

    2. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Why not both. Both solid

  14. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    It’s time lose Haaland with a plan to get him back in GW 28 for free.

    Reasoning -

    Won’t captain in the next three - tot, liv, DGW 26 Arsenal captain, NEW

    Who’s with me?

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      *next 4

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      Are you not just nuking your team value

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Nope

        He will fall a couple of times in this period

        Will have enough to get him back in 28

    3. JBG
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      If only I still had my WC, used it up immediately, hated my team pre new years, worked well up until last GW -_-.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        I have used my WC as well

        Served me pretty well

        Almost 40 points up since playing it

    4. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      not me. if salah saka and palmer were on fire I would say why not but where are you going to invest the money?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Saka and Palmer have insane fixtures and Haaland not captain material in the next four

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          Will you cap Saka or Palmer?

    5. F4L
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      i thought tottenham were awful at home

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        *i still think haaland best cap this week. could do with him scoring vs gala midweek to get the confidence up

    6. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      I don't see any forwards stepping up to replace Haaland or in need of funds to shift into DEF/MID.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Watkins, Thiago, Pedro, Evanilson doing just fine

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          I would assume most folks have Thiago as 2nd forward (83% EO top 10k).

          Watkins and Pedro will share starts/mins with Abraham and Delap respectively IMO. Also no pens.

          Evanilson is fine but not as your main FWD.

    7. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Still keeping here. Not sure who you're selling him for

      Worst case scenario, bench him and see what happens

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        See below

    8. riot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Spurs and Liverpool have conceded 8 goals in the last 2 weeks to Burnley x2, Bournemouth, and West Ham

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Both away

      2. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Won’t be captaining him even if I keeep him

        1. riot
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          I don't think it's a horrible idea, if I was top 100k or so I would do a no haaland wc and chase rank 1. It just seems high risk low reward in a season where Palmer, Salah, Saka aren't delivering to justify the money saved

    9. Benedict_Alexander_Arnold
      • 1 Year
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Why not captain him against Spurs? Yes, he’s sputtering of late, but it’s not like Tottenham is keeping clean sheets right and left

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Bruno Fernandes much better option at home to Fulham

    10. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      No do not sell Haaland

    11. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Where do you spend the money?
      Palmer injured
      Salah looked awful
      Saka feels like he's not scored in about 3 months lol

      Spurs is a decent fixture, manager is on the brink
      Other forwards - no standout really

      If you have instinct go for it I guess but not for me

  15. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    Who from my midfield has to go for Bruno if any? x

    A) Rogers
    B) Semenyo
    C) Wirtz

    1. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      1 day, 21 hours ago

      C

    2. Benedict_Alexander_Arnold
      • 1 Year
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Wirtz

    3. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Wirtz

  16. Il Capitano
    • 5 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    1FT 0.2m ITB

    Raya
    Gabriel Chalobah Senesi Andersen Alderete
    Saka Bruno F Rogers Enzo Ndiaye
    Haaland Ekitike Guiu

    Saka and Ekitike on the chopping block, worth getting rid of either this week or just roll?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Looks good to me

    2. R Whites
      • 10 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Ekitike out for me.

    3. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Save

  17. F4L
    • 11 Years
    1 day, 21 hours ago

    apparently even IFAB suggested that you couldn't be penalised for a handball for something like today. did they just make that rule up on the spot lmao? about needing to determine if it denies a clear goal scoring opportunity even if its not a "legitimate" handball offence?

  18. Drizzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    1 day, 20 hours ago

    Still high as a kite after that game. Wow.

    As for fpl, awful week...

    1. Sly Fly
      • 16 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Agreed, Sir. Brilliant game. Rubbish FPL score!

    2. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      FPL score is irrelevant after that

  19. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    1 day, 20 hours ago

    Bruno G to (C)Semenyo most likely happening tonight. 1 FT and 2.2m ITB left after that. Any urgent moves here?

    Dubravka
    Gabriel Chalobah Mukiele
    (V)Bruno.F (C)Semenyo Rogers Rice Wilson
    Haaland Watkins
    .
    Roefs Thiago Tarkowski Thiaw

    Roefs and Thiaw going soon. Dorgu is an easy buy if passed fit. Timber and Guehi are future targets too. Keeper watchlist: Raya, Sanchez, Kelleher

    I'd like some more Chelsea, but it's hard to sell/bench any of those attackers for Enzo/Pedro, and maybe West Ham isn't the best entry point for a defensive double-up

    1. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Yes do the transfer

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 7 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Cheers

  20. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    1 day, 20 hours ago

    rice or rogers on wc?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Rice

    2. R Whites
      • 10 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Rogers for me.

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      like rice more but could do with arteta stopping subbing zubi pushing rice deeper. need him in that box to box role

    4. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Rogers

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years

  21. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    1 day, 20 hours ago

    Will do Haaland + Gordon ➡ Mbeumo + Pedro with 2 FTs this GW giving me -

    Verbruggen
    Gabriel - Richards - Reinildo
    Saka - Palmer - B Fernandes - Mbeumo - Rogers
    Watkins - Pedro

    John - VdV - Gudmundsson - Barnes

    Plan -

    GW 25 - VdV ➡ Saliba
    GW 26 - Save
    GW 27 - Save
    GW 28 - Pedro + Palmer + Barnes ➡ Haaland + Thiago + KDH for free

    Thoughts? 🙂

    1. Ray85
      • 8 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Why Saliba?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        Can’t afford Timber if I want to get Haaland in 28

        Moreover I think Saliba is more secure for minutes anyway

        1. Ray85
          • 8 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          I wouldn't double up on the Arsenal defence right now, also Saliba doesn't really get defcon. I'd look at someone like Chalobah instead.

          1. pundit of punts
            • 13 Years
            1 day, 20 hours ago

            They have a DGW in 26

            Chelsea fixtures turn sour after 27

            1. Ray85
              • 8 Years
              1 day, 20 hours ago

              Is that a confirmed DGW?

              1. Tonyawesome69
                • 7 Years
                1 day, 20 hours ago

                nope

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Not a fan of losing Haaland before Spurs and Liverpool

      Especially with how they've been defending

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        1 day, 20 hours ago

        I won’t be captaining

        Still hold?

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          That logic applied to seasons where other premiums were flying

          The worst I'll do with a fit Haaland atm is bench him. It's a very risky move because of that ownership... And the fact that in this bad run, he's still toward the top of many stat tables

          Unlike Salah or Palmer, for instance

    3. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Could work out well.

  22. Ray85
    • 8 Years
    1 day, 20 hours ago

    Is Wirtz to Mbuemo worth a free transfer? I already have Bruno F.

    Or is Kelleher to Sanchez the better transfer?

    Early transfer ideas/discussion

    1. Tarkowski to Chalobah (have Pickford)
    2. Rogers/Wirtz to Enzo
    3 Rogers/Wirtz to Boomo
    4. Rogers/Wirtz to Wilson
    5. Two of above for -4

      What has happened to Rogers?

        1 day, 20 hours ago

        2 assists in last 6/7 matches, had a purple patch of c 5 games, hasn't done much outside that. Still a good pick though

        1. Ray85
          • 8 Years
          1 day, 20 hours ago

          He looked decent today, got defcon and has some good fixtures coming up, definitely wouldn't move him on.

      Probably 3. I think of doing the same, Wirtz to Mbuemo.

        Yeah worried about Salah back affecting team dynamic, Wirtzs role etc

      6) Dorgu in for Tarkowski/Fofana, depending on cramp or not

    4. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years

      Wirtz > Mbeumo followed by Tarkowski > Chalobah.

        Like this, Boomo has a potential 15 pointer in him every gw

    Muñoz is going to return to a Palace team that is a million miles away from the team he played for pre-injury, such a rapid decline for them.

    I take it you will be avoiding him when he returns because they are so bad?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years

      He's already back

      Chelsea had so many fast breaks behind them today, and his attacking instincts probably won't help that

    2. Sly Fly
      • 16 Years

      Yup.

      Prefer to see some solidity in Palace back line first

    Best midfielder up to 9.1?
    a)Semenyo

      Selection of about 7 the trick is to find the four or five firing every week 🙁

    2. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      1 day, 20 hours ago

      Semenyo

    3. Ray85
      • 8 Years

      Bruno F

    4. RamaJama

      Mbeumo?

    With Chelsea fixtures worth doing, Ekitike > Pedro & hold Palmer in case he plays.

    If still injured Palmer > Semenyo, benching headache either way.

    Kelleher
    Chalobah Gabriel Guehi
    BrunoF Rogers HWilson Rice Palmer
