Not bad with having Raphinha and Bamford. Although if Dallas had scored there, would have been even better

COH · 19-03-2021 10:55pm

Flip flopped all week between Bamford and Antonio... seems I flipped when I should have flopped

Ace2007 · 19-03-2021 10:56pm

FT 2-1

extra gravy · 19-03-2021 10:56pm

Bam 3
Harrison 2
Raph 1

markc91 · 19-03-2021 10:58pm

20 from 4 so far

Muahahaha · 19-03-2021 11:04pm

A good night for Bamford and Raphina owners. Sheffield United at home is their next fixture too so hopefully more returns there. After that they head into a tough run of City, Liverpool, United

castletownman · 19-03-2021 11:09pm

9 from Raphinha and Maja, who has contributed nothing since I brought him as my cheap striker.

Didn't use the FT, so am aiming to bring in Christensen and Iheanacho for Holgate and Maja for next week, injuries picked up in FA Cup not withstanding

IrishLad90 · 19-03-2021 11:22pm

Scorned after missing the deadline, wanted Raphina in... I have Bamford so that saves something for me

Xander10 · 19-03-2021 11:23pm

8 pm Saturday is a long wait to the next game.

With Fulham losing, you would think 0-0 wouldn't be the worst result for Brighton & Newcastle, would put them 3 pts clear of the drop zone with a game in hand on Fulham. It might be a cagey affair.

Cartman78 · 19-03-2021 11:29pm

Looking around my leagues, I really need Newcastle to score. Lots of Brighton defensive double and treble ups

I would still think Antonio has a chance of getting something. A West Ham team with something to fight for against an Arsenal team with nothing really to play for.

Bamford seemed to have very few shots and involvement yet he managed to come away with a goal an assist. It was an odd game imo. Plus Fulham can feel a bit hard done by.

IrishLad90 · 19-03-2021 11:40pm

Id want Newcastle to avoid the drop, there is a lot of relatable history behind the gates of st James'

A lot of Newcastle fans still want them to be relegated in the hope that Ashley leaves?

2nd Row Donkey · 19-03-2021 11:54pm

Dunk (c) here.

I don’t think you can call those true fans then.

Treble Brighton defence as well.

I dunno they seem to consider themselves the 'true' fans. Saying Ashley is using the club as a glorified advertising hoarding. Plus is unwilling to invest in the club to try and bring it to the next level. Happy just for the club to do enough type of thing.

Looks like we will all be rising one place OR anyways.

Serious cojones! Just treble defence for me, first time ever in fpl. I'll be on the whiskey tomorrow evening.

Jim Gazebo · 20-03-2021 2:07am

29 from Bamford Dallas and Raphinha (C). Pleased to see Raphinha score as he looked like he wasn't going to much for a while. Hewt as it gives me some protection now going into next 3 games.

As a fellow tripler its going to be horrible to watch.....u just know newcastle will score, prob wait til 90th min too just to rub it in! Might just check score on sunday!

Benimar · 20-03-2021 9:34am

10 (-4) from 2. 7 players to go.

Bamfords injury last week screwed me a bit. I’d always intended on bringing him in this week, but with him not being 100% and being short players anyway, I held off. Killed me in my ML.

Quadruple Brighton defence! Fair play. I merely tripled up myself

. I have Dunk VC actually so if something happens to Kane before kick off I could end up in the same boat as you.

What odds are Brighton to keep a clean sheet anyway? In my mind I’d say it’s 50/50.

Your mind is pretty accurate.
Betfred have it as 5/6 each of two on the unders/overs of half a goal.
So with bookies margin that's 50/50 for a clean sheet or not.

Lundstram · 20-03-2021 12:00pm

Captained Trossard and had a dream last night he came off injured after 3 minutes. Officially worried.

on 3(-4) from Dallas, Maja. 68k down to 104k. Ouch!

macraignil · 20-03-2021 12:16pm

Martinez
Targett, Lascelles, Holding, Cresswell
Son, Lingard(c), B Traore
Kane, Bamford

With 11 form 1 so far and Holding and Son not likely to play its more than likely a red arrow in OR this week. An Aston Villa clean sheet and a return from captain Lingard my only hope of an OK week I think. Just brought in Lascelles who has scored 2 in the last three games so hoping he continues the run of goal scoring and gets a win for Newcastle.

Good luck!

He's always let me down.

Good player but doesn't score fpl points

COH · 20-03-2021 8:14pm

Really needed Lewis to play tonight. Cant wait to get him out of my team

Mother of god that was a panicky moment reading the Brighton teamsheet all the way to the end before Veltman turned up!

Plays better in a back four with the rest of the Ghostbusters - Ray, Egon and Winston.
