A bit annoying as not made any transfers yet , if i transfer pedro out i cant get him back with 1 transfer due to selling price , so basically 3 transfers to get him out and back which is not worth it . probably just play an extra defender for 1 week .
Report mesmerised • September 17, 2026 9:06 PM BST
this is one of the things that is wrong about the game, price changes forced people to make transfers early, then later in the week injuries strike and team news starts to come out at press conferences etc. Prices changes should happen after the deadline to take place the following week like other fantasy games do.

Really tempted to FREE HIT with 3 Citeh, 3 Toon, 3 men in tights, 3 toffeemen and 3 Dirty Leeds, think all 5 teams will win this weekend, just got to decide starting 11.

5 fold on those teams to win pays 10/1.

I have a cunning plan for the next 3 weeks...

Including an outside the box Captain this weekend... Cool

Just ticking along nicely, still a long way to go

5 free transfers , so have to use 1 , Szoboszlai has to go due to his injury , looking at another man city attacker cherki but the risk is roulette before the champions league game .
Report MrStrawMan • October 17, 2026 11:24 AM BST
Went for Doku , it looks like Cherki and Semenyo are being rested .

Assist for doku good start

Ipswich goal nice

Semenyo and Haaland both hobbled off at the end... ShockedSad

My captain gamble not looking too good so far.. Blush

Team news this morning certainly helped , szoboszlai to doku went ok , szoboszlai obviously wasnt a 100% as he didnt last the first half .

Another blank for Fernandes.. 6/7

I was hoping Konsa would be rested today but now I'm quite pleased (our leader has 11 points on his bench)

Come On Forest! Grin

Currently the fourth highest scoring midfielder. Some aficionados of the game thought he was a poor choice and you should have Bruno instead! Up to now they’re wrong!
Report s.kenbo • October 18, 2026 4:13 PM BST
Bruno has had one good week I think.
