The Big Numbers – Gameweek 34

A little later than usual, we look back on the previous round of fixtures after last night’s Manchester derby brought the curtain down on Double Gameweek 34.

As many of us prepare to unleash our second Wildcards, a number of big-hitters make a strong claim for our plans over the remaining four Gameweeks.

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

    Is Jesus too much of a risk - sorry what was the consensus in here?
    ...sure it's been covered again and again

      9 minutes in 3 months. Do you think he will start? If so take the punt because no one knows. It's all guessing

      Good luck mate! I'm going to stop tinkering soon too, don't want to overthink it this time 🙂

    Gabbi will fail. Don't do it.

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      How do you know? Hull defence being good? So close to getting him in for lukaku

    2. Phil Dagger ⭐

      bookmarked.

    3. George Sillett

      Another bold prediction based on nothing.

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Another?

        1. George Sillett
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          I didn't mean from you personally I just meant generically. What's behind this prediction ?

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            No form, poor fixtures and nothing to play for. Sure he got an assist the last match, but their two goals were scored by a defender and a holding mid. He won't get many points imho...

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      why?

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Gee I don't know...fixtures, form, nothing to play for...

    Henn / Pick
    Alonso / Valencia / Davies / Bertrand / Holegate
    Eriksen / Hazard / Sanchez / King / Zaha
    Kane / Gabbi / Benteke

    1.4 itb

    Rival team

    Henn / Heaton
    Gibson / Valencia / Davies / Azpi / Ward
    Eriksen / Hazard / Sanchez / Siggy / Davies
    Negredo / Kane / Barnes

    He's 65 points ahead. This week I brought in Gabbi for Negredo, I think hel prob do the same. What moves in the future GWs would you do? I need differentials from him. We both have BB and no WC..

        Looking at

        Benteke > Jesus in 36

  6. FPLtfs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    de Gea
    Alonso, Valencia
    Sanchez, Alli, Eriksen, Zaha, de Roon
    Kane, Benteke, Lukaku
    Heaton, Baines, Holgate, Friend
    1 ft, 1.2 itb.

    Think I'll play AOA this week, so;
    a) de Roon + Valencia -> King + Daniels
    b) de Roon + Lukaku -> King + Gabbiadini
    c) Something else?

    1. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B

  7. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Any suggestions with 1FT & 5.4m itb?

    Pickford
    Davies / Bailey / Yoshida
    Coutinho / King / Alli / Hazard / Zaha
    Lukaku / Kane
    (Valdes / Negredo / Jagielka / Barragan)

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Team looks decent for this week, I take it you don't have a WC? Make a long term transfer or save.

      1. Who Ate All Depays?
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        how about Negredo -> Gabbi?

  8. Shifty
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    sorry keep getting bottomed...

    Weighing up a GW35 WC...and possibly save the FT in GW36 if I can, allowing for 2 FTs in GW37(BB) just in case any injuries etc. Team's been fluking it out for awhile now. Worth a WC, this lot?

    Jaku Foster
    Valencia Alonso Robertson PVA Amat 😆
    Sanchez Eriksen Alli Townsend Capoue 😆
    Kane Lukaku Benteke

    Become something like...

    Jaku Pickford
    Blind Alonso Stephens (Gabriel Smith)
    Sanchez Hazard Eriksen King (xx)
    Benteke Gabbi Kane

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I would do it

      1. Shifty
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        thanks

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)

      That must be uncomfortable.

      1. Shifty

        Yea mate...super. Ever week teamsheet time is so stressful.

  9. AYLD28
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Who to bench from my front 8

    Eriksen / Zaha / King / Hazard / Sanchez
    Benteke / Gabbi / Kane

    Currently on Zaha

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'd go Zaha too

  10. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    WC g2g?

    Pickford Caballero
    Alonso Monreal Bailly Yoshida Holgate
    Sanchez Hazard Alli Coutinho King
    Kane Jesus Gabbiadini

    0.0 itb

    I quite fancy Tekkers this week and could leave the Tekkers to Jesus upgrade but I think I'll go straight Jesus which gives the option of

    Jesus Gabbi to Costa Anichebe for GW37 if needs be

    1. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I don't think youl need to bring in costa. He likes scoring against Southampton. Back to blank this weekend!

    2. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      nice team.

      Honestly I would keep Tekkers this week. Save the transfer for GW36, bench Tekkers. Then do the necessary transfers in GW37.

      But then you have a benching headache in GW35...

    3. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yep great team

  11. slamdunk
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What defender to bring in with a 5.6m budget?

    Already have

    kompany/gabriel/holgate/yoshi

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Bailly or Blind

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Bailly

    3. slamdunk
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers guys

  12. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Guys Do you think Gabriel is nailed on ? And if not Who is the biggest threat to his place.?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Don't know. Wenger.

    2. ThisTimeNxtYrRodney
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      If they play 3 at the back, yes. Cos he can play central or full back in a 3.
      If they play 4 then he will not be nailed if mustafI becomes available. Overall a good gamble IMO.

    3. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      at that price i think he's worth a gamble. Arsenal seem to be happy with the new formation, fans as well.

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        cheers.all might take a punt on wc

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

      Nailed imo. Can't see Wenger changing formation as he commented on being able to switch to a four man defense during matches with Gabriel at right back

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

        Which would also implicate Gabriel being nailed on

  13. Kun Tozser
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Hennessey
    Yoshi Alonso
    Hazard Zaha Alli Sanchez Ward-Prowse
    Jesus (VC) Gabbi (C) Kane

    Pickford Valencia Fuchs Vert

    AOA

    Am I playing the wrong defenders?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Close between Yoshi and Fuchs.

      1. Kun Tozser
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Thinking Hull need to score so Yoshi may be a bad pick

        Will Valencia play?

  17. BobBradleysOpportunity
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    am i mad to be considering benching sane for Alonso this week, I've got a feeling sane will get rested, and I'm 50 ahead in my mini league and i just want to cruise to the line

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

      Wouldn't be surprised if Sane gets a rest, but with Chelsea's defensive form I'd play Sane

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Bench Sane or Zaha? Cheers

    1. BobBradleysOpportunity
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2. Sebastes
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Wow that's a tough one. Roll of the dice?

    3. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      If you have no other city cover, zaha

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I have no other city or palace

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

    2. Sebastes
      • 8 Years

      A

    3. ChelseaGuy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      C perhaps

      1. ChelseaGuy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry didn't notice Baines at first glance..A

  20. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Son's scored 5 in 5 but is fourth in transferred out for gameweek 35.

    FPL managers are brutal!

    1. BobBradleysOpportunity
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      just not worth the risk of another fat 1 pointer

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Take the points and run

    3. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      If Dembele is out he'll get a start

    4. FPL Panda
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yeh I reckon he plays and could well score. Poch realised his mistake at half time v palace and put him back in assp

  21. AYLD28
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Would anyone bring in Kompany for Valencia this week for a -4?

    I want rid of Valencia and Kompany has great fixtures, a double and I don't think he will be rotated. They need him!

    1. Sergeant Garcia
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'm pondering the same... And Kompany is a nice acquisition.
      Think it's worth it personally. Definitly if you don't have a WC left.

    2. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      fitness is a big, big issue.

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        My thinking was to wait and see if he plays v Midd as that would be two games in 4 days.. but Valencia is hurting my eyes

        1. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          would be more than that ... didn't he do 120 min SUN @ Wembley followed by 90 min on Thu

    3. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I've brought Kompany in but did for Holgate ... and still have Valencia/Bailly/Yoshi

      Wanted the extra cover this week but will look to move Valencia out (probably for Monreal) next week

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I'd have kept holgate personally and taken Valencia out but I don't know your team. My defence isn't great this week:

        Henn
        Valencia / Bertrand / Alonso / Davies / holegate

  22. Sergeant Garcia
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What would you do?

    A) Play Valencia (Byram / Gibson as sub)
    B) Buy Blind/ Daniels (-4) and get rid of the enigma Valencia

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

      A

    2. The Rock
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A.

    3. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't swap united for united, rotation will hit everyone eventually even blind

    4. Sergeant Garcia
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers guys. Voice of reason probably!

    5. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      just did B, Valencia has dodged 3 cleanies right on my frigging face 18 pts is too much imo

      1. Sergeant Garcia
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Who did you get? 🙂

  23. Deulofail
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    For one week before WC:

    A) Bavies > Huth/Cedric/Yoshida
    B) Valencia > Bertrand/Kompany/Daniels

    Jak
    Valencia Maguire Brunt
    Eriksen JWP Coutinho Firmino
    Aguero Benteke Kane

    Grant | Bavies, Siggy, Mawson

    1. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Kompany

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

        Isn't Valencia 80% going to play though? And if so, a slightl better option than Valencia? Asking because I just don't know

        1. Phil Dagger ⭐
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          don't know what mou will do next.Kompany could do really well this week

  24. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Is Ben Davies' time coming to an end?

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

      Yes

    2. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Could be but he did really well against Palace.

    3. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      It doesn't look like it

    4. slamdunk
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I think he got this gw for definite but next week I'm not so sure.

    5. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Why?

      1. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Rose coming back

    6. A.T
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not this week I'd say.

  25. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years

    Can't wait to press the WC button tomorrow after the deadline. 😀

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

      Same, though I quite like my current team. There's nothing like the suction of a WC black hole to take over my life's effort

    2. slamdunk
      • 7 Years

    Fun fact

    Benteke has only scored in 2 games at home in the league this season.

      They need the points this weekend. I noticed Zaha anytime odds are pretty kind.

        Yep means nothing really, plus Burnley have some injuries in defence I think, maybe. Not sure.

      Not so fun fact

      I won't get much time to scout my cup opponent this gw 🙁 Any news on the draw?

      1. A.T

        Wouldn't have a clue I'm afraid mate, I'm not in the loop.

      Got Zaha and Benteke - so one will be on the bench ... currently on Zaha

      Could argue that Burnley are the sort of team more vulnerable to mid-field goals as opposed to strikers?

      Maybe Zaha plays for the extra clean sheet point

    I remember GW35 last season being stressful since I had BB'ed in DGW34 and had to get crap players out before the next DGW. This season it's like a pleasant oasis.
