How Arteta has revitalised Arsenal’s attack and what it means for FPL managers

Mikel Arteta’s recent changes to his Arsenal team appear to have been getting the best out of his attacking options.

Even though the Gunners’ upcoming fixtures are not the most appealing, Fantasy Premier League managers would do well to keep an eye on north London.

Accordingly, we have analysed the fortunes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.3m), Emile Smith Rowe (£4.5m), Bukayo Saka (£5.3m) and Alexandre Lacazette (£8.3m) after fourth win in five Premier League games.

    Leno hasn't blanked for 5 straight weeks and Arsenal have kept 4 clean sheets in a row.
    8,6,7,6,6.

    He's currently still just 5.0m, same price now as Martinez.

      I would, if no pressing matters. Thinking Zouma to Holfing (to fund Vardy to Kane)

    2. FF Dirtbag
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      But that was more likely due to the fixtures they had...

      1. FF Dirtbag
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Forecasting that into the fixtures coming up is silly.

        In terms of raw goals against, Arsenal are actually up there with the best in the league.

        City - 13 (2 games in hand)
        Villa - 16 (4 games in hand)
        Spurs - 17 (1 game in hand)
        Arsenal - 19

        Their defense has actually been sneaky good this year underneath the rubble.

      I got laughed at for my double Arsenal defence 🙁
      Shame I saw basically none of those CSs though with suspension, injury, rotation etc 🙁 🙁

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I honestly wouldn't waste an Arsenal spot on a GK, although I recognise that many don't thik they'd ever want 3 outfield Arsenal players.

    Realistic scores over the first (for some) and second matches?

    Dias
    Stones
    KdB (c)
    Martinez
    Wilson
    Bruno
    Grealish

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      7,7,6,10,2,9,9

      1. FF Dirtbag
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        That would be magic.

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Incidentally that would also be 50, as below 😀

    2. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      6, 6, 6x2, 7, 2, 5, 12 would be my guess

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        For me that would be a whole lot of wishful thinking, but it would give me 146 (-4) for the week, so hey...

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      48/50ish?

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I'll take that and run. Wonder if the highest score will break 200 this week.

    Morning, excuse a post about future gameweeks with loads of action still to go. Procrastinating at work

    Martinez
    Dias Cancelo Coufal
    Soucek Salah Son Bruno KDB
    Antonio Bamford
    Forster Holgate Mitchell Brewster 2fts 1.3m ITB

    Holgate to Shaw? (keeps enough cash itb for Antonio to DCL for when Antonio breaks)
    Holgate to 6.1 DEF? dont keep cash itb
    Any other moves/ thoughts?

    Thanks for any input (would hold if didnt have 2fts)

    1. Mika-eel
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Holgate to Shaw looks good, and switch to 442 for the week and bench Soucek?

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 15 Years

        cheers

    2. OneDennisBergkamp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      teams great, would upgrade Soucek thats all

    3. OLB
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Your gonna have probs when Spurs play City in the cup final, both don't play that weekend and you have no bench - spend on bench upgrades to accommodate.

  5. Mika-eel
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Well done to everyone that attacked the GW!

    Didnt use any chips last week and got away with it, got complacent I guess and thought I could get away with no chips again this week.

    Currently on 35 with 7 players remaining. Still have a decent rank but this gameweek has been a nightmare so far. Only way is up I guess.

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      On one hand, I'm regretting not just benching my Leeds trio and saving a Bench Boost (and sparing a -4). On the other hand, the -4 and BB got me to move Mitchell for Stones. So, on the balance of things I'm good. 92 (counting the spend) with 11 yet to play.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        And before anyone gets on my nuts for bragging too much, I've yet to break into the 1M (was there for a second before Maddy scored his today), so I was waaaaay overdue.

      2. Mika-eel
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Stones name still send shivers down my spine,lol. Well done on a great score.

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          To think I was also half-considering TCing him... (Same thought visited me on Coufal, as well, though strangely I don't think I'd be all that happy had I done that).

          1. Mika-eel
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Only time I've ever considered a defender captain was Alonso in his pomp, and still didnt go through with it. I'm just not brave enough for calls like that.

            1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
              • 12 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              My ML leader is in the top-10K, so I've got to take some chances if I'm ever in with a shout. But I doubt I'll actually pull the plug on something like this. My puntiest captains this season were Zaha (and all he could do was muster an assist from Palace's four goals home to Leeds) and Jimi when he got his OG (on a wildcard). Not a good record, this.

              1. Mika-eel
                • 7 Years
                3 years, 9 months ago

                Hope you catch your ML leader.

                Good luck for the rest of the season!

    2. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Oof. How have you managed to avoid all the points? I didn't use chips in either GW and I still have 16 points on my bench! 😆

      1. Mika-eel
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Was silly avoiding West Ham, kept faith in Leeds and Wilson.

        Plan was always to FH this week. Changed my mind and paying the price, at least I still have my FH chip. Silver linings and all.

    3. wulfrunian
      • 8 Years

      Be patient,go with your gut and better days will come.Well done to you because you are going with your plan.

      1. Mika-eel
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks so much. You're right, things wont always go ones way.

    4. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Easy to choose a great team that gets 1,2 or 3 points apiece. Who predicted Zouma and blanks for both Salah and Bruno?

      1. Mika-eel
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        and Vardy.

        1. The Ilfordian
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Yes, that was cruel. For me, watching Lacazette being the only starter besides Xhaka to score less than 6 was frustrating.

  6. wulfrunian
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    A question for gw21.Which one to get in?
    a)Chilwell
    b)Grealish
    c)Dcl

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Grealish: player and team in decent form and with top buddy Barkley back

      1. wulfrunian
        • 8 Years

        cheers

      2. Avery
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Or you could look it at like Barkley has been out a while and needs to build form plus most of the team have been getting over covid and not to expect the same form as before *shrug

    Is Shaw nailed? Worth selling Reece James for him?

    1. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      of course he is.. playing the best football of his career and has lost weight and toned up.. his place to lose.. James is playing for a sh1t chelsea team conceding in nearly every game.. hope that helps

    2. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Telles will certainly get games. Shaw is, however, playing well

      1. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Telles will play cup games maybe or 1 game in 5 or 6 in the PL ahead of Shaw,..

        1. mixology
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          will be interesting to see as there is only 1 cup game this month, vs Liverpool nonetheless. And then 5 PL games in a row

  8. BeWater
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    My fellow Vardy owners, don't despair. He's scored 6 goals and got 3 assists in 10 games v Everton. He's also only got two red fixtures in the next 16 gameweeks.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      How many fixtures won't he get penalties in?

    2. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Are you serious? Vardy only scores when its a pen

      1. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Maddison or barnes are the goals and assist corers for leicester

  9. tuturututu

    What's you prediction on total points on this bunch by the end of the gw?

    Robbo
    Stones
    Salah(c)
    Bruno
    Rashford
    Firmino

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas

        Salah fail. Make that 28 on him.

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Salah TC or Liverpool or United fan?!

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            He asked how many points Salah as captain would have by the end of the week. Is a goal and BAPs against Burnley THAT unlikely?

            1. AC/DC AFC
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              No .. But Burnley are no walk over at Anfield despite injuries. And he's only got 3 points so far.

              But yeah

              Anything can still happen

              1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
                • 12 Years
                3 years, 9 months ago

                Well, that's kind of the point of these predictions. LIV win 1-0 with Salah the goalscorer and there are your 11 points.

          2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            It's TOTAL points, mate. Meaning Firmino blanks again, Bruno gets an assist, Rashy gets a minor return, etc.

    2. BeWater
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Robbo 6
      Stones 6
      Salah(c) 11x2
      Bruno 5
      Rashford 3
      Firmino 2

            • 12 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I do, but I still think he'll grab a goal and pick up a YC at the Cottage, maximum.

    I do have Wildcard and BB left.

    Exp wise 100pts is catchable.
    A good Wildcard BB should be able to make up for the 40pts no?

  14. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 9 months ago

    Best United defender to bring in

    A Maguire
    B AWB
    C Shaw

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Why Utd?

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Presently have
        Cancelo Dias Robertson Coufal Dallas

        Want to release cash fro Robertson to fund move for KDB and United seem like best option fixture and form wise

    2. JonSnow
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Maguire if money is not an issue, due to nailedness and will score the odd header.

    3. Avery
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B.

      The other two will probably serve a ban pretty soon and risky until after that

    Has anyone managed to raise the bat for their century yet this GW?

    I imagine there will be quite a few in a couple of days time.

        With 5 and KDB captain to go

      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It's my draft team (but that's even more impressive, right??):

    4. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      I'm on 97 (-24) with 12 players left. You laugh, but it's true lol.

  16. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Think I'm OK to stick with this lot next week and bank a FT?

    Mendy
    Dias - Stones - Dallas
    Bruno (c) - KdB - Grealish - Raphinha
    Martinez, Robbo, Soucek (who will undoubtedly punish his benching), Coufal

    Damn, kind of wish I still had my BB 😀

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Oh, yeah, be handy if I had some attackers: Wilson, Bamford, Kane

    2. JonSnow
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Keep an eye on fernandes this next game he seems knackered and may be due a rest, but who knows with Ole

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Decent enough bench if no cameo.

    3. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      yes

  17. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Chilwell Vardy out, Justin Kane in.

    Sensible?

    1. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Would prefer to hold Vardy over Kane for the next few tbh

      1. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        No way would I keep vardy, his game has regressed.. goals are coming from midfield for leicester and vardy gets the odd assist or for his goals you have to solely rely on pens.. too much money on him.. antonio or ings when his fit again better picks.

        1. Alisson WondHaaland
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          He's had 2 games with no returns... I can understand the frustration of owners but I think now is the perfect time to own him. If I had the funds I'd consider bringing him in this or next week

          1. TLF
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I agree with this

        2. SAUCY SALAH
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Recency bias, he’s consistently in the points. And with Leicester firing and Pereira being back he will haul in no time

          1. TLF
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            & this

    2. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah but i would worry about Vardy after a few blanks

  18. OneDennisBergkamp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    hows everyone doing so far..?

    98pts with 8 to play

    1. OneDennisBergkamp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      pretty happy with that, wondering if others are much better though

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        A few but not many this week.

        It's the season that counts

    2. JonSnow
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      87 or 79 with my (-8) and 11 to play

    3. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

    4. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      not quite so well...72 with 6 to play.

    5. dshv
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      No i am bad 76 with robertson bruno salah diaz to play

      95 with 9 to play including TC.

      I'm hoping to get over 100.

      1. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        basic maths will tell me that you will 🙂

      2. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        well done by the way on your defence and antonio pick.. very good indeed

        1. Granville
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          my transfers were Sterling, Stones and Antonio. It went so right.

      3. jia you
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        epic stuff that lad...even more so if Salah takes his frustration out on Burnley!

    7. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wonder if you would have posted this with 45 pts ... hmm

    8. aleksaa2
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      97 with 9 (KDB) 3C

    9. SAUCY SALAH
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      86 (-4) with 7 to go. No chips used at all over the BGW and DGW and still a green arrow...getting very excited!

    10. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Not great, taking a little comfort in keeping hold of all my chips but not ideal.

      58 after a -8 deduction.

      Got the following left to play:

      Martinez x 2, Dias, Cancelo Bruno, KDB, Mo (c)

      Need Salah to save me.

    11. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      93 with 7

    14. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    15. Trippier Hazard

  19. dshv
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Bring vardy for a hit thats how he paid the price...

    1. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      vardy at 10.1m will score the same points in the dgw as the clown that is wilson for 6.6m

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      ML nephew TC’d him ...

  20. OneDennisBergkamp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    thinking Salah > KDB next week for free and KDB vs wba (c)

    1. _Ninja_
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      If Salah keeps his form up v Burnley then yes

  21. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Watkins + Dier to Antonio + Shaw for -4? Or hold FT

    Current team

    Martinez
    Stones Cancelo Coufal
    Son Bruno Grealish KDB Salah
    Bamford Watkins
    Forster Mitchell Dier Brewster

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Have to say long term that’ll pay out.

  22. Niho992
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Casuals winning again. They own Antonio and Stones only because they couldnt afford Dias and Vardy

    1. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      are you Brosstan in disguise? please stop spouting this crap.

    2. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      there are managers on here alot longer than your 2 years and know what they are doing so don't put it down to them being a casual cos they are better at this game than you.. antonio was always a great pick for managers who had the balls to pick him instead of those of us that followed the herd and were put off by nonsense like "he is always injured", "he won't last 2 games", blah blah blah blah.. as for stones also another great pick so has consistently been delivering 6 points for clean sheets throughout the season with bonus points also..

      1. Niho992
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Casual spotted.

        1. seanie3
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          10 years manager a casual? ok then ..
          newbie in you spotted arsewipe

          1. Niho992
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Did you know that you can play this game even if you dont have FFS account?

            1. seanie3
              • 13 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              really? I didn't know that.. your posts still highlight your a newbie.

              1. Niho992
                • 6 Years
                3 years, 9 months ago

                You know now !

                Casual.

                1. seanie3
                  • 13 Years
                  3 years, 9 months ago

                  if you say so, I would say it takes one to know one, but your 2 years of being a manager is far inferior to my 10 years.. so jog on now good little boy and watch a cartoon.

                  1. Niho992
                    • 6 Years
                    3 years, 9 months ago

                    Casual insulted. Hahaah

                    1. seanie3
                      • 13 Years
                      3 years, 9 months ago

                      if you say so newbie..2 years manager is novice

                    2. seanie3
                      • 13 Years
                      3 years, 9 months ago

                      also out of interest how is a manager with 10 years experience a casual? or is it cos you are a child you can't comprehend that? jog on little boy

          2. Granville
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I'm definitely more casual than I was 12 years ago.

    3. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nope. I had the choice to get Dias & Vardy and turned them down

    4. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Or wanted the money in midfield

    5. Joggers Nipple
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      wrong

  23. SAUCY SALAH
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    The Chelsea penalty award that got overturned to be a free kick, what came of it? As it looked to be in a great position to shoot

    1. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      the free kick was taken by mount and the ball has just landed on mars it was kicked that high

      1. SAUCY SALAH
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Really haha

    2. aleksaa2
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Mount sent it to London

  24. 420king
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Paying the price for not playing my FH (Coufal, Dawson, Maddison, Salah(?), etc...).

    Still, at least the team looks good enough to save a FT next week, right? 🙁

    Martinez
    Dallas Stones AWB
    KDB Sterling Bruno Grealish
    Kane Bamford Antonio
    (Dier)

  25. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Let's complicate my question from above slightly.

    1. Play Wilson
    2. Wilson > Antonio before he rises and Wilson drops and play Antonio
    3. Wilson > Antonio and play Robbo?

    1. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      under no circumstances should you ever ever consider playing wilson. I own him as well and looking to get rid asap.. that newcastle team is sinking faster than chelsea.

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2

      Wilson gave me a great weekend earlier and fortunately left my team thereafter

    3. Bob B
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wouldn't feel comfortable making early moves but in your position I'd take the chance with 2

  26. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Barnes or Maddison?

  27. LE CHARO
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Probably has been noted already, but I just realised Vardy was the only starting Leicester player who blanked twice ! Even Ndidi managed to get something. Incredibly frustrating.

    1. SAUCY SALAH
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wow that’s crazy

    2. seanie3
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      the fact that vardy couldn't score against one of the worst chelsea teams in years tells me he is defo regressing...not the player he once was and relies on pens or assists

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        He’s been regressing for years and yet he’s getting regular hauls. He could’ve got goals this gw and will probably knock a couple past Everton

        1. seanie3
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          "could of", "should of" are the last words of a fool.. ever heard that one..

          1. seanie3
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            "if only", or "nearly" etc.. doesn't translate to points in FPL.. Vardy doesn't smash the goals in like he used to.. alot of games since restart show he is more than likely to score his "hauls" from pens or assists.. for the same money I would rather Kane or even better still get someone like antonio or ings and upgrade my mf.. more points spread across the team that way..

  28. SAUCY SALAH
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    On the FPL points page it lists Villa players as NEW (H) then MCI (A) but they actually have City first tomorrow 🙁

    1. aleksaa2
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It was like this for every player, first game is below, then the second one above.

      1. SAUCY SALAH
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yes you’re right, only exception is Man City, where it is ordered correctly

  29. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    I'm never going into a double game week again without playing my wildcard bench boost free hit or triple captain. It's no fun.

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I love the stress of still having them

      1. Bob B
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Can be stressful playing them too

      2. seanie3
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        you think that is stress? try being a chelsea fan watching a team "managed / coached" by lampard

  30. Bob B
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    This gameweek has been so-so, so would rather look ahead to the future!

    What would you do with this team?
    Possibly a shift in formation to 4-4-2 with Trent and Lewis out for 2 City?
    or sit on my hands?

    McCarthy (Forster)
    TAA Dallas Coufal (Lewis)
    Salah Mane KDB Bruno Soucek
    Bamford Adams (Brewster)

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      TAA to City
      Mane to someone, Maddison?
      Brewster to Antonio

    2. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Feels like guesswork at the moment but City got a great run so sounds good to me
