    The two Brentford players are my obvious weakness, despite their fixtures.
    Also thinking of removing Fulham players now.
    Is it still worth bringing Lewis in?

    Sanchez
    TAA Porro VDB (Robinson Konsa)
    Saka Foden Rogers Schade (ESR)
    Haaland Havertz Solanke

      Feels like you enjoy a bit of risk? So yes, Lewis, in your case is worth bringing in.

      Looks good to bank FT imo. Squad looks in good shape

    If Foden can get back up and running, then GW9 seems like a good time to go Saka -> Foden

      I think he'll haul this GW tbh

        I bloody hope so! I've had him for the last 3GW lol! Pep owes me big time. 🙂

    Battling on whether Haaland's worth the sacrifice, given Salah/Watkins' form and opposition - best of these lot?

    (A) Ignore Haaland - save FT and reassess next week (perhaps Saka/Palmer make way instead of Salah)
    (B) Salah & Watkins -> 6.4 (B Johnson) & Haaland
    (C) TAA, Salah & Watkins -> Gvardiol, Mbeumo & Haaland (-4)
    (D) TAA, Salah & Watkins -> Lewis, Mbeumo & Haaland (-4)

    (D) banks and extra 1.2m which will come in handy for the inevitable Vardy and bench upgrade soon

    Hendo
    TAA, Gabriel, Porro
    Salah, Saka, Palmer, Jota, Rogers
    Watkins, Vardy

    Fabs, Johnson, Barco, Jebbison
    Bank 0.1m, 2FTs, all chips

      Same advice I gave you earlier.

      WC if you want Haaland. If you don't want him, do A.

      WC'ing now will allow you to fix your bench, your goalie, get Haaland, remove Vardy and you still will have 2 FTs next week. It's a strong play if you want to pivot back into Haaland which is what I'd do.

        Cheers. One of the issues with a WC now is there are a few players I already have with great fixtures this week and then a difficult run afterwards (ARS, CHE, LIV). Vardy could also grab a goal or two in his upcoming fixtures, which are great.

        I can also see Watkins and Salah scoring well this week, given the opposition and form (same is of course true for Haaland, but not so much the cheaper mid I'd be bringing in).

        Also, what would an optimal WC this week look like?

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 5 Years
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Raya
          TAA - Gabriel - Lewis (Davis, Ait/Myko)
          Saka - Foden - Mbeumo - McNeil - Rogers
          Haaland - 6.0 - 4.5

          1. Jinswick
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            1 month, 14 days ago

            Cheers. I guess that's the issue with Haaland - you also need to start a few cheap options each week. No Salah or Palmer either. Think I'm swaying towards avoiding the big man up top!

              • 5 Years

              Sorry that should include solanke I think. Didn’t check the money

        2. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 14 days ago

          I like FPL Raptor's WC7 tbh.

          Raya 4.0
          Gabriel Lewis Davis Mykolenko VdB
          Saka Palmer Mbeumo Rogers Dibling
          Haaland Solanke Cunha

          I really like this list. I would probably go Cunha + Raya > Havertz + Sels/Flekken if I could afford that but otherwise it's excellent.

          The Cunha is clever because his fixtures are really good for a long time and you can play Dibling vs LEI next week when Cunha has MCI.

          1. Jinswick
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            1 month, 14 days ago

            Interesting, but I'm not sold. The problem with Cunha is that he plays for WOL.

              • 14 Years
              1 month, 14 days ago

              Can also do like Johnson and go 3-5-2 with a non-playing 3rd fwd.

    1 FT
    A. Johnson > Lewis (bench Hall)
    B. Save FT (play Hall)

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      A

    Hi all pretty locked in on the wc any thoughts?

    flekken
    Gab Faes Lewis
    Saka palmer rogers mbuemo
    Haaland Jackson havertz

    Vald Greaves harwood choudhury

    2ft rolled 0 itb

    Yes it’s stretched and could more money in def but prefer to play the game this way.

    Future plans involve Jackson to solanke, saka and hav/gab to salah and enabler.

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I'd do Jackson > Solanke immediately.

      You know the risks with such a heavy attack.

      1. Hurnt
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        This is what is haunting me, my head says just put solanke in as something will come up but with 2 free transfers I fancy a one week punt on in form Jackson

        If I had 1ft this wouldn’t cross my mind

        Thanks for reply as always mate

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years

          I prefer Solanke over Jackson for this week even. Brighton high line defense with Dunk + Webster is way worse than Forest's.

          1. Hurnt
            • 10 Years
            1 month, 14 days ago

            Will consider this for sure thanks

    Who is wildcarding in GW9?

    1. Bonus magnet
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Probably you and 250K others

  7. Tsparkes10
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Trent Eze to Lewis Saka for free??

  8. Snoop Udogie Dogg
    • 4 Years

    Is Rogers OK, didn't see him in last night's game?

    1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Oh he did

  9. Letsgo!
    • 7 Years

    Do u think jota will start vs crystal? And will u do esr to mcneil for free

    1. JBG
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Jota will probably start yeah

      1. JBG
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Also yes to the second part

    2. Ausman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Yep, I think Jota starts.
      Second part, I don't own either one, but would like to see some consistency out of both players. McNeil has the easier fixtures so probably would do it.

  10. cigan
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 14 days ago

    What to do with Son?

    A) Play and hope he starts (Wood vs
    Che 1st sub)
    B) Bench & start Wood
    C) Sell for Saka (for free)
    D) Sell for Palmer (for a hit)

    Currently set on A as I'd prefer 2 FT after internationals

    1. Bonus magnet
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Start Wood

    2. Derbz87
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      They're playing tonight aren't they? Might get more from that.

      1. cigan
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Not in the squad

  11. Bonus magnet
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 14 days ago

    1 . Trossard or Martinelli

    2. Wood -> Havertz (-4) yes or no

    Have no Arsenal

  12. FCH
    • 4 Years
    1 month, 14 days ago

    TAA, L Diaz to Palmer + VdB for -4?
    A - Do it
    B - Wait for Diaz news (maybe benched?)
    C - Roll transfer

  13. tim

    Best Pedro replacement under 6m?

    Im thinkin Vardy might be worth the punt.

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Vardy or Delap

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Delap.

      But I'd consider going down to 4.5m and changing to a 3-5-2 if you can't free funds. I don't like any of the cheap forwards much atm tbh.

      Solanke, Havertz, Watkins are the ones to go for. One or two depending on formation.

  14. Frank Bruno Guimaraes

      I can see Haaland continuing to score but at a much slower rate than 2 a game. Man City will start to see the goals shared around with Foden coming back in. Surely teams won’t keep trying to play out from the back against city particularly if they don’t start scoring regularly from other players than haaland. Stop haaland, stop city .

      1. Merlin the Wraith
        • 8 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        I'm hoping that Foden, when he does come back, will take some attention away from Haaland or leave Foden with more freedom. They'll be my City 2 (with a decent 1st bencher) as I'm really not warm to their defence.

      Who's on pens for Villa? Is it not Watkins?

      1. Derbz87
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Probably Tielemans but we don't know do we?

      Had an awful start for the season.
      WC on GW 4 and it didn’t help…
      Willing to take a hit to gain momentum.
      What would you do here?

      Raya
      TAA Robo Pau Rico
      Salah Semenyo Saka Rogers
      Haaland DCL

      Fabianski Pedro Greaves Winks

      A. Robo & Semenyo to Mbeumo & Mikolenko (-4)
      B. Salah & Semenyo to Palmer & Mbeumo (-4)
      C. Robo & Pedro to VDB & Solanke (-4)
      D. Robo to Gabriel

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 month, 14 days ago

        I'd use transfers to upgrade the weakest parts of my team.

        And that would be C for me. Since Pedro is injured and he should be a priority fix.

        Current team, 2 FT:

        Raya (Fabianski)
        Digne / TAA / Lewis (Robinson, Bednarek)
        Rogers, Eze, Palmer, Salah (Winks)
        Welbeck, Raúl, Haaland

        Feeling "anxious" about not having more Arsenal cover and Mbeumo for Brentford's good fixture run. Considering:

        - A: Eze & Robinson to Mbeumo & VdB
        - B: Eze & Robinson to McNeil & one of Calafiori/Gvardiol/Porro (can't afford Saliba/Gabriel)
        - C: Eze & Salah to Mbeumo & Saka

        What do you think?
