Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

The final double Gameweek side take to the pitch in Sunday’s late kick-off, with Crystal Palace making the trip to Anfield to face Liverpool.

Fantasy managers will, of course, be focused on both Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke in the Palace attack, with both commanding 144,000+ and 148,000 new Fantasy Premier League owners for Gameweek 34 respectively.

Benteke is skippered by 96214 (2.1%) of his owners as he bids to extend a run of three goals in his last four outings. He’ll face his former club in form, then, with Zaha and Andros Townsend tasked with providing him with the ammunition.

While Sam Allardyce’s side have every motivation to earn a third successive win at Anfield, Liverpool also have every incentive to claim a victory.

Their quest for a top spot and Champions League qualification goes on, with Fantasy managers focused on the efforts and output of Brazilian pair Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino.

Coutinho has been signed by over 34,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 34, with Firmino earning 58,000+ new owners following his run of returns in six consecutive Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    22nd red card of Ramos' career. Still don't think he is a 'great' defender. A very good one, but not in the class of Maldini etc.

      Better than Bramble?

          1. Syd.
            • 14 Years

    Hi guys, is there any good alternatives to playing the WC in GW35 considering you have WC,BB,TC and AOA left?

    Cheers

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      TC captain gw35 wildcard gw36

  9. mountfa
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Potential WC team with TC in 36 and BB in 37.
    How does this look and need to save 0.9m somewhere ... ideas welcome!

    Czech Pickford
    Blind Davies Luiz monreal Stephens
    King ozil sane hazard alli
    Kane gabbi jesus

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Drop Davies

      1. mountfa
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Don't think he will keep his place or better alternative?

    2. OLB
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Monreal to Gabriel or Jagielka

      1. mountfa
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Liking Monreal to Gabriel assuming Gabriel keeps his place, thanks.
        Rest of that lot look ok?

  10. Petr Cech the Table
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    12 points with 8 players to go (not captain)

    Who can do worse?

      1. Petr Cech the Table
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        That bench.

      2. vectorman
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Ouch!!!.. Still early days yet

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      11 (-4) with 9 to go (Negredo captain)

      1. Petr Cech the Table
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        This makes me feel better.

        Captain Lukaku when he's away is suicide.

  11. Duffy Dunk
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    If the 2 goalkeepers hadn't been playing like gods, this Classico scoreline would be epic

  12. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Have some WC draft but I'm still not sure about it...

    Jaku/Pickford
    Alonso/Davies/Stones/Holgate/Yoshida
    Sanchez/Hazard/Eriksen/Coutinho/Barton
    Kun/Kaku/Benteke

    0.4ITB

    Weak, yah ?

    1. Dirty Harry
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Not Barton surely?

      1. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Yah, just budget is shietyy for 5th mid, could be anyone

        1. suddenorgan
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 29 days ago

          think Capoue is the best option there

    2. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Jesus instead of Kun would be perfect I'm jsut concerned of his minutes perspective

    3. Big_Bear
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Benteke and Barton for Sane and Anichebe

  13. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    2FT for this week. Looking at dropping two SGW players once the games are finished for this week.

    How does this look?

    1. Zaha (5th mid)+Barragan > JWP+Clichy

    Hennessey
    Alonso Clichy Yoshida
    Sanchez Hazard Alli Eriksen
    Kane Lukaku Benteke
    (Pickford JWP Jagielka Holgate)

  14. TorresMagic™

    2-2

  15. Duffy Dunk

    Hammers Rodriguez

  16. FPL Puppy

    Game on!!

  17. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Marcelo just keeps producing the goods.

  18. Big_Bear
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    I'm WC GW36. Who's the best player for next GW I should transfer in on FT
    De Gea (Foster)
    Brunt Baines Alonso (Holebas Lovren)
    Sanchez Alli King Coutinho Zaha
    Lukaka Benteke (c) (Deeney)

    https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/entry/2296270/history

    I'm thinking of PVA in for Lovren if he's likely to start V Burnley. Then drop Alonso.....hmmm

    Any suggestions?

  19. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Marcelo would cost 7.0 in FPL

    1. George James
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      And I would pay it

  20. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years

    basketball classico

  21. Petr Cech the Table
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Will wait until Wednesday, but how does this look for free?

    Origi --> Gabbiadini
    and
    Valdes --> Cech

    1. Big_Bear
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Love it. Soton players are players to get in next GW

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Looks good, North London Derby is always a goalfest so you can forget about a Cech cleanie in GW35 however

      1. Petr Cech the Table
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Got Pickford vs Bournemouth. Hopefully he'll rack up the save + penalty save

  22. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Who's your top picks for WC guys??
    Alli,Ericksen,kane,hazard,king ,Alonso ,Cech maybe. No idea of the rest...

    Just dawned on me I have to wait till this gws games seen over to avoid injuries etc which only gives us two nights to sort it b4 deadline?

    • Fred54
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Something I only just noticed.

      Silva subbed for Sterling (23') who himself was subbed for Iheanacho (105').

      Typical Pep.

    • Annie

      Messi!

    • Dr Dream
