    Anyone trying jimenz or ings captain instead of salah m?

    1. PastaFasul
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Or TAA

    Bottomed on last page.

    Fernandes is really tempting me but surely Martial is the more sensible pick.

    Can anyone convince me one way or the other or should I just go Richarlison?

      Jus go martial

        1. Jude Rooney
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Lund out

  5. the dom 1

    Thoughts on this team?

    Pope
    VVD, Lascelles, Williams
    Salah, KDB, Traore, Grealish
    Vardy, Ings, Jimenez

    McCarthy, Fleck, Stephens, Rico.

    6.2ITB, No FT.

    G2G or what changes in line up would you do?

    Cheers

    1. Jude Rooney
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Stephens to start surely

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        That was my thoughts to start Stephens over Williams too.

        Cheers

        1. Silecro
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Williams over Lascelles

    2. Pukki Party
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      What do you plan to dp with the money? Great forward 3 there. I'd bring in Trent for Rico if you don't have plans to get Mane?

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Was thinking of bringing Mane in for GW28 onwards, double pool with Mo 😉

  6. Pukki Party
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts here? Currently plan is to navigate 28 and 31 with free transfers, prefer Jimmy in over Ings because he has a game gw31.

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Just sell Lundstram because of his blank in 28? Roll the free transfer

      1. Pukki Party
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Only have him and KDB not playing that week.

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          you don’t have a good playing bench though - doubt you will have 11 starters in 28 with Lundstram Fernandez KDB Holgate Cantwell Greenwood yet you are thinking of selling nailed players instead ?

          good luck though, your moves may pay off

  7. Avery
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Which one would you pick in defence this week -
    A - Enda Stevens SHU (at home to Brighton)
    B - Jack Stephens SOU (at home to Villa)

    Thanks!

    In your opinion who is the best 7.5 MF for the next few GWs (27 - 30) for this front eight

    Salah KDB Traore Mooy xxxxxxxx

    Vardy Ings Jimenez

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. Lazaretti

    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    What would you do with this. 2 FT 0.7 Itb. Not using FH on GW31

    Ryan
    Dunk - TAA - Lascelles
    Mane - Salah - KdB - Traore
    Ings - DCL - Aguero
    Button - Lundstram - Rico - Dendoncker

    A) Aguero to Jimenez
    B) Ryan to Pope
    C) both
    D) something else

  12. PapaWengzz
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Captain Salah or Mane and why?

    1. Soto Ayam
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Salah, in form and I believe he plays more central, but I could be very wrong on that. And on pens

    2. faver
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I have them both and I'm going for Sadio C. He is more differential for my mini league. But with them it's nothing more than a coin flip.

  13. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Kun > Jimmy for free a no brainer?

    1. maratus

    2. Holmes
      • 11 Years

      Planning to keep Aubameyang? Him to Ings is an option

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks Holmes . Yep bought auba for the long term last gw. "Might " have lost him if son was fit to replace grealish but not now obviously

    3. Hotdogs for Tea

      i would roll the transfer

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 10 Years

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam

      Rico imo

  24. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    1 gw only who scores more?

    Lund(BHA)
    Williams(WAT)

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      williams is more likely to start imo, so its him

    2. maratus
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Lund prolly gets like 20min gametime. Not worth keeping anymore.

  25. Eleven Hag
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Time to sell Grealish with next fixtures looking tough??

    (Lei a, Che h, new a, wol h, liv a, MU h)

    1. maratus
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Depends rest of the team. Grealish is staying in my team till the WC prolly.

    2. Rash
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Those fixtures ain't as bad as they appear imo

    3. FPL Pillars

    How to fit Jimi and Traore in this team guys? 0.0 ITB and 2 FTS.

    Hendo
    TAA Lund Stephens Digne
    Mane Salah KDB Trossard
    Vardy Ings

    Kelly Mousset Cantwell

    1. maratus
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I would start fixing the team by transfering Lund out asap.

      1. maratus
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        And Kelly.

    2. g40steve

      Going to have to downgrade a big mid?

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Need another keeper for Hendo blank.

      2. De Gea is GOAT
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Lund can wait if i bring in Jimi and Adama. The original plan was to get KDB out but i'm now considering Vardy instead?

  27. Maddamotha
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lundstram owners, what are you doing with him? Starting, benching or selling?

    1. maratus
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      He is dropped. There is no reason to keep him anymore.

      1. Superballzzz
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Back to back sub appearances... both times getting heaps of praise from wilder... he might have won his place back for brighton after his winning goal last appearance? Or am I just trying to convince myself?

        1. maratus
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          He is dropped from starting 11.
          They bought better player in january window who also needs alot gametime to settle.
          Of course you can be stubborn and keep him, but with the given facts its nobrainer to sell him.

        2. Lazaretti
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I will keep one more week. Berge did not play well according to reports at least if you compare to Lundstram. Lundstram has change to be in starting 11 and costing just 4.0 no rush to sell and it seems that he is not dropping soon.

      2. Maddamotha
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yepp, just other fires to put out. Worked out well last week. Might there be a chance for a start, considering he has been playing well when coming on, and Wilder aslo saying this in interviews. A 1 pointer probably most likely tho.

  28. Gunners in Haaland
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Start 1

    A) Williams
    B) Lundstram
    C) Lascelles

      A

    2. g40steve
      • 6 Years

      B has highest & lowest chance of points depends if he plays?

    3. Eleven Hag

      i am going with A
