The Big Numbers – Gameweek 35

Our post-Gameweek members article assessing some of the top performers arrives once again this evening.

With many Fantasy managers now looking to wield Wildcards, we cast an eye over in-form and in-demand attackers and also assess some of the stand-out assets in defence ahead of Friday evening’s deadline.

    Hoping to keep my place in Top 20k or more...
    Last peace of the puzzle, hope to have your help and opinion:)

    Caballero XXX
    Alonso Gabriel Stephens Blind XXX
    Sane Alli Hazard King Sanchez
    Jesus Anicheb XXX

    1) Courtois - Yoshida - Kane
    2) De Gea - Monreal - Costa

    My take is:
    * Court vs De Gea = 60/40 % in favor of Cou.
    * Yosh vs Monreal = 40/60 % in Monreals favor.
    * Kane vs Costa = 50/50 %

    Which leave it to 50/50!
    What's your take?

    Thanks!

      1 but I would get Cech instead. Also downgrade Gabriel to someone like Holgate and upgrade Blind to Monreal or Vertonghen.

        7 years, 6 days ago

        Interesting... Thanks. I guess your thinking makes sense, Gabriel might get 1 game, therefore just go Holgate and save 0.7.
        Blind also a slight slight risk, Monreal better...
        Thank you!

        However would prefer 3 Chelsea players... any ideas?

    4. Optic1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      1 for sure. Although, Anicheb....

    5. OzilFozzil
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Court, Monreal (you already have Stephens), Kane (cause the man is an FPL beast)

      1. OzilFozzil
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Sorry 1, but with Monreal if you can

    On a WC

    A. Cech + Monreal
    Or
    B. Caballero + Koscielny

    Pickford - ???

      A. I reckon he's getting at least 6. Wouldn't be surprised if Kosc ends up with 4.

    C) Other?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      TC Ozil is too risky
      Go with B

    2. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      tc cech 36 bb 37
      thank me later

    3. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Maybe overlook the TC for a DGW'er and place the TC on Hazard this weekend

    A. Alonso, Vertonghen, Ozil, Anichebe
    B. Azpilicueta, Holgate, Alli, Gabbiadini

    Gotta add that I am ranked 850K and need differentials.

    1. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Is A possible with Alli instead of Ozil?

      1. poohdini
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        It's not. I can't have four players from Tottenham (also have Kane and Eriksen)

  7. gorilla
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    captain king or go boringly "safe" with kane?

    1. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Sanchez if you have him. If not, Hazard. And if you have neither then go Kane.

    Heaton
    Davies, Yoshi, Gabriel, Cahill
    Alli, Sane, Hazard (c)
    Costa, Benteke, Jesus

    Willy,- Baines, Zaha, Obiang

    Really thinking about play with 5 in the back with Baines and bench Benteke, madness?

  12. Ha.

    3. Snevitz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Who is this player in option C - better than King???
      A and B will score roughly the same so i'd go B as he has the extra game to do nothing in.

  13. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Who would you rather have for the rest of the season?

    Sane or Jesus?

    I can do Benteke and Sane ----> Jesus and Albrighton/Hererra/6.2

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Sane imo

    2. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Jesus

    3. A.T
      • 13 Years

      Jesus

    4. gorilla

      7 years, 6 days ago

      jesus ofc

    5. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Jesus and King/Redmond/Albrighton/Capoue/JWP

    6. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Jesus without a doubt

    7. You've got red on you.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Who is the best pick? Will be benched this week though.

      Albrighton

      Hererra

      Redmond

  14. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Is Henn-Jak good enough for BB next week? Can be 0-0 I guess?

    Worth taking hits to get anyone?

    1. gorilla
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      wont be 00 both will concede

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Says who? 😳

  15. efcdave1982
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    TC still available and I have Sanchez for this week.

    BUT...

    Im chasing and very strongly thinking about a TC on John Terry in GW38.

    Thoughts?

    1. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Yeah. I am planning to TC on GW38 too.

      Just (C) on Sanchez atm. His performance does not warrant the TC chip.

    2. Optic1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      That could be the best or very worst idea I've heard.

      1. efcdave1982
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Exactly! Used my WC last week with a TC on Sanchez in mind but im starting to waver. Terry should be nailed on in 38, faces MID at home and could even be on penalties.

        Make or break time!

        1. Optic1
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 6 days ago

          I mean fair play. You might as well whack a tenner on it as well!

          1. efcdave1982
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 6 days ago

            Im sitting pretty comfortably in my money leagues but the difference between 1st and 3rd money wise is proving very difficult to resist!

            Will (C) Sanchez regardless, so if he goes wild then I'm fairly well covered. Terry is a real tempter though

            1. efcdave1982
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              7 years, 6 days ago

              I actually think Terry will start that game too so he can lead the team through the guard of honour on his final game, rather than it being a cameo

              1. Rains of Castamere
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 6 days ago

                Hasn't played in a year, could easily pull a muscle in the first half!

              2. Dr Dream
                • 11 Years
                7 years, 6 days ago

                I think you can be certain he will if the title is won and he's up to it. I'd be amazed if he didn't tbh...

                1. efcdave1982
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 10 Years
                  7 years, 6 days ago

                  Precisely my thinking. So so tempting!

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      that is SO risky

      if you want to be different TC Hazard or Kane this week or some such thing

    4. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      A fascinating thought ....... likely to brought off to standing ovation. But when?

  16. gorilla
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    are we gonna know if coutinho is fit before the deadline?

  17. Heels_Over_Head
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Anyone have the press conference schedule for this week?

    1. gorilla
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      when is klopps?

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        I dunno... was looking for a list of all of them... not sure why it isn't easy to find with Google... but I'm old and slow I guess

  18. Over Midwicket
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Morning all. Best captaincy out of this lot?

    A) Hazard (MID)
    B) Costa (MID)
    C) Kane (whu)
    D) Gabbiadini (liv, ARS)
    E) Özil (MUN, sou)

    Leaning towards E for his two fixtures and advanced position. Thanks all 🙂

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

      C

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      A or C

    3. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      C imo. Whu is already safe and got nothing to play for. Mid currently playing for their lives.

    4. Rains of Castamere
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      A

    5. Rains of Castamere
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      I have these 5 and have the same conundrum

  19. Gazza2000
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    A) Vertonghen, Costa
    or
    B) Holgate, Kane

    1. gorilla
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      b but try to get someone better than holgate like maguire if you have the funds

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      A

      but it's gonna be bumpy

  20. kenzo.
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Thoughts on this?

    WC team with very average TV.... 0 Itb and No BB....

    Cech (pickford)
    Alonso Azpi Gabriel Yoshida (Stephens)
    Sanchez Hazard Alli Eriksen (Carroll)
    Kane Jesus (Anichebe)

    Chasing 2 in a ML both of whom have no chelsea and no arsenal defence but have BB.... Any suggestions

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      With no BB, I'd shave it down to the bone to get Gabriel to be Monreal...

      Play Stephens
      Yoshida -> 3.9 (.4 assuming you bought at 4.3)
      Cech -> Caballero (.6)
      Gabriel -> Monreal (1.0)

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Otherwise a very solid team!

      2. kenzo.
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        that does make sense but im really tempted to have 2 arsenal as differentials..... rivals have no chels and no ars and i can see them getting at least 2 CS over the next 2 weeks....

        that could be 60 points covered.....

        1. Heels_Over_Head
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 days ago

          Another way

          Kane -> Costa
          Gabriel -> Monreal
          Azpi -> Vert/Toby

          I really don't trust Gabriel to the game time.

  21. Caesar Salahd
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Morning all, im I gtg with this WC team?

    Caballero
    Stephens, Alonso, Yoshida
    King, Alli, Sanchez, Hazard
    Costa, Jesus, Kane

    Subs: Pickford, Holgate, Carroll, Kone

    Planning to BB in GW37

    1. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Your def bit light, but I think it is ok.

      Gtg imo

      1. Caesar Salahd
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Cheers, ye I can get a better def if I switch Costa but I really liking this front 8 for the upcoming GWs

  22. Moose™
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Sane + JWP + Gabbi --> King + T.Carroll + Jesus

    -8 hits.

    Madness?

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      It has upside under the circumstances.

      We should get some confirmation on Aguero today. Wait for that.

      1. Moose™
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Worth to drop those 2 Southampton players?

    2. Caesar Salahd
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Hmm maybe only Carroll > JWP

      1. Moose™
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        I am ditching JWP as he is not really nailed. Same goes to Gabbi. And, I think Jesus will outscore Sane until end of season.

        Worth to drop 2 DGWer for -8 hits? Seems like it will backfired later.

  23. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Morning dzz, couple of quick questions

    1) how nailed on is Gabriel? best ars def cover? planning pick/willy in goal
    2) When is rose back? best to keep or get rid of Davies?
    3) Was planning to get both sanchez and ozil for dgw36 and then ozil >> hazard in gw37 but since chelsea already have a good fixture in gw36..might as well just bring in hazard in gw36 itself?

  24. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Planning for the DGW37?

    Bear this in mind:

    Gaps between matches:
    LEI - 5 days
    SOT, TOT & WBA - 4 days
    ARS, CHE, MCI, MUN, SUN & WAT - 3 days

    1. TheEgyptianKing
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Id feel scared to have anyone like Pedro because i can see willian coming in, same with aguero for Jesus

      1. Reuser
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        What I like about Jesus is that he is a potentially explosive threat off the bench as well as starting.

    2. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Thanks - really useful stuff.

      Still, all of the clubs with something still to play for are in 3 day category with the exception of Spurs.

      We probably need to manage our expectations In terms of widespread rotation (even by normal dgw standards).

    3. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      I think rotation is a lottery at this time.
      My thoughts are to accept rotation as it will affect everyone.
      The only players I feel are nailed are possible keepers, Sanchez and probable Hazard.
      Let us hope Chelsea and Spurs with fighting for 4th place carries on to the last game of the season.

  25. TheEgyptianKing
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 days ago

    Thoughts on what i should change for the upcoming dgws

    Jaku (Valdes)
    Holgate Stephens Davies (Bailly Gibson)
    Eriksen Alli Zaha Alexis (Davies)
    Lukaku Aguero Gabby

    Thankssssss

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      How much do you want to change now?

      Do you have money in the bank?

      Do you have Bench Boost left?

    Good morning. For this GW?

    A. Lukaku and Sané
    B. Coutinho* and Jesus

    *Stephens autosub

      Jesus and Sane/XXXX -4?

      1. Partick Bateman
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Could do but it would be -8 in total as one move funds Arsenal defender. Think I just need to hear Coutinho is fit in presser.

    Who is the best pick? Will likely be benched this week though.

    Albrighton

    Hererra

    Redmond

      Oddly it seems like Albrighton ignoring price.

    2. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Probably Albrighton for me.

      Considerably less of a rotation threat and always capable of an assist.

    A. Alli beanouane

    Or

    B. Pedro vert huth
