That will be the point from midweek as live shows the week points not game points.
Ah ha, good point. Although they were highlighting him in green even though he wasn't even on the bench!

Only three players survive from Leicester's midweek Premier League defeat of Chelsea, with Youri Tielemans, James Maddison and Harvey Barnes keeping their places. Of the eight changes, Ayoze Perez is given the nod to lead the line in place of Jamie Vardy, who is set for a spell on the sidelines after surgery on a hernia.
Leicester: Ward, Ricardo Pereira, Amartey, Soyuncu, Thomas, Mendy, Tielemans, Under, Maddison, Barnes, Perez. Subs: Justin, Fofana, Evans, Albrighton, Iheanacho, Choudhury, Ndidi, Castagne, Jakupovic.

My defender temptation is over. For now.

Yeah me too, is it a bug? :wink:

Got 1 team I can do it but going to hold off as can only get Barnes, for some reason I want Maddison although the stats and price don't back me up. Maybe it's because he talks a good game......

Brentford going well in Championship...just beaten Luton but a lot of changes, but then again it’s hardly a full strength Leicester side! Might have been interested in Justin or the other fullback but both on bench

The club player is highlighted. So, both Justin, on bench, and the injured Vardy are shown in green for Leicester's cup-tie in progress.

Thx Sam. Gone MC heavy unsurprisingly. Wonder coming from an FPL background how his transfers are holding up especially in his rookie TFF season.

Funny how TFF imitates real life as today I was watching the Reading game on Sky. Reading got a penalty so I genuinely got up and stood behind the sofa! (Didn't help as penalty was missed!)

Not loving the FA cup team selections this round. No Bruno now.

Still, he will come on to take the penalty I’m sure.

I guess that's why my best 2 are where they are :wink: but now got to decide when to bring him back, had no plans until mid feb with not the best fixtures, maybe Son or Bruno will have to go.

Salah is a conundrum. If you don’t have him and his form has been patchy to say the least and now they’re out of the cup is there a case despite his return to goals today to pass still. Fixtures not the best but it is Salah.

Not much chance of many big scalps in R5

Edit maybe more than I first thought but more mid table scalps

Thanks for posting the R5 fixtures, I knew the draw had been done but hadn't paid it must attention. 4 out of the 8 could be all Prem affairs (2, 4, 6, 8).

1 and 7 will be interesting as both Swansea and (presuming they qualify) Bournemouth are vying for promotion from the Championship so could be good games.
