The Big Numbers – Gameweek 29

Our first article for members over the international break arrives this morning. With double Gameweek 34 in mind, we check out a pair of Manchester United assets in light of their win at the Riverside Stadium. The approaching double-headers also find us assessing an improved display from Middlesbrough’s lone frontman and the recent “Allardyce effect” on the Crystal Palace defence.

We also delve into Chelsea and West Ham’s attacks and run the rule over Leicester City’s in-demand frontman, as the Foxes’ renaissance continues.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    If you were on WC now, what would be the keeper duo you're aiming at?

    Hennessey £4.3m, Pickford £4.0m, De Gea £5.4m and Valdes £4.6m are what I'm looking at. Not sure which combo to really go for tbh. 😕

    1. UnitedFan

      Valdes + Pickford imo

        It works

    2. JAC THE CAT
      • 10 Years

      De Gea and Pickford

    GW 30 - 1FT - 8.1 ITB

    Heaton
    Alonso - Baines - Robertson
    Mane - Sigurdsson - Son - King
    Aguero (VC) - Lukaku (C) - A.Carroll

    Robinson - T.Carroll - McAuley - Ake

    Thinking of the boring move of Son -> Alli? Any other ideas welcome.

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years

      Get rid of mcauley?

    2. Jazz!

      Yea I'd do Son to Alli. Son comes back late from internationals and he wasn't that good V Saints so Jannsen could easily get a game imo. Annoying that the punt didn't pay off. 🙁

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Jazz! jones to valenica for a hit?

        Son plays on Tuesday afternoon, he'll only be late back if he swims home.

    3. AA33
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Son to Alli looks good

    4. UnitedFan
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Ake to Walker.

      I think defensive returns are more likely than attacking returns for Spurs this week given Burnley's home defence? Also a good move for the long term. Then look to get Alli in after?

    5. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 7 Years

      I have a similar line up and I went with Eriksen since I couldn't afford Alli by .2.... after going with United's thought process but then going back to a Tot Mid as a long term move... either way is good but Burnley at home may score as they do look better lately. Our bigger issue longer term is that we technically have two 5th mids: King and TCarrroll... so do we keep Kun or down grade him to work toward moving TCarrroll to a legit 1st 2nd or 3rd mid???

    6. liiusions
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Keeping faith with Lukaku in the derby?

      That moves looks good I'd be wary of Son's game time. I'd also look to get Valencia in as well

  4. Lone Wolf

    Very tempted to Llorente > Vardy but it would make gettin Spurs mid very hard. What are your thoughs about it? Next week it would be Mane, Siggy > Firmino, Alli for -4. Or just make Lanizni > Alli this GW and forget about Vardy?

    1. nobwak
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Would it still be hard if you went for Son instead of Alli?

      1. Lone Wolf
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Son may be dropped

        1. nobwak
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah well so MAY Alli... so MAY anybody...

          1. Lone Wolf
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            I think that Alli and Eriksen are in great form and nailed. Son is opposite of that.

    2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Lanzini to Alli IMO

  5. Old Gregg
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Early transfer thoughts on my team appreciated. Will wait till after internationals.

    1.7 Itb. 1 FT.
    Midfield clearly needs improving.

    Heaton/Vlades
    Alonson-Valencia-Coleman-Gibson-Holebas*
    Siggy-Mane-Son-Markovic*-Carroll
    Kun-Carroll-Kaku

    Kun would clear up funds.

    1. smix
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah .. midfield looks bad.. likes of Alli,Sanchez,King etc missing

    2. jimmy.floyd
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Markovic -> King?

    3. Old Gregg
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Defo want Ali/Sanchez.

      Need to clear funds.
      Is it time to get rid of Heaton!?

      Kun > Vardy
      Heaton > Pickford
      Holebas > Yosida

      1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Heaton to Valdez (Boro) to ready for DGW ???

  6. smix
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What to do with this bunch ?

    Pickford
    Walker Coleman Valencia
    Sanchez Mane Siggy King Antonio** Lukaku Defoe
    Grant Robertson Gray Amat

    1 FT 0.5 ITB

    If Hazard is out, does that mean Pedro starts?

    If yes,

    Sanchez(c) against MCY?
    Or
    Pedro (c) against CP?
    Or
    Vardy(c) against STK?

    Would be nice if there was a Boro attacker that seemed appealing.

  12. GS456
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Any suggestions lads?

    Heaton/Pickford

    Evans, Peiters, Maguire, Alonso, Williams

    Sanchez (!), Mane, Siggy, Eriksen, Fletcher

    Aguero, Lukaku, Gabbiadini (!)

    0.0ITB

    was hoping to save a transfer but Gabbiadini doesnt look like being fit.

  13. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Alonso for Valencia? Yes or no?

    I have Walker, Coleman, Alonso, McAuley and Amat.

  14. jia you
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I have a pretty strong squad, especially considering the fixtures, for GW30. If all fit who would you bench?

    Pickford / Jaku
    Valencia / Walker / Alonso / Mawson / Yoshida
    Sanchez / Hazard / Alli / Siggy / King
    Lukaku / Deeney / Gabbi

    King, Mawson & Yosh on the bench atm.

  15. La vida FPL
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    A) Baines > Valencia
    B) Antonio > Eriksen
    C) Gabbiadini > Vardy

    If you could only do 2 of those which would it be.......

      7 years, 1 month ago

      My team's being doing well lately, but I'm scared of missing out on a big Eriksen/Alli/Sanchez point haul in the next few weeks. Also not sure if I should make any transfers this week:

      Heaton
      Alonso, Walker, Valencia
      Firmino, Mane, Siggy, King
      Costa, Lukaku, Llorente

      Bench: Robles, Lanzini, Brunt, Williams

      Thoughts? Got 1 FT and 1.6m ITB.
