Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 36 – Friday

Original team name though

Its going to be one of those game weeks isn't it 😆

There are 4 West Ham players in that team. WTF.

Wait how does he have 4 west ham players 😮

Bizarre, 4 x WHam players, which I get if he already had Fonte before he signed from Southampton - but I thought fpl forced a manger to go to 3 max at the the following deadline?

It's not even Saturday, you made this wildcard team hours ago and you're thinking of hits?

Hard to say with 9 players left play this week

Well if everybody didn't press the wildcard until later in the week, then price rises would be I overdrive however this is a pointless exercise as only a very small percentage know about this..

In theory, if everybody was on the same page and worked together, they could gain 1m+ in TV but it's not so it's stupid not to hit the button as soon as you begin

Maybe trying to throw off your mini league rivals by making them think you are going to take the hits or vainly trying to influence the price changes in the belief that enough managers done this it would fool fpl

Dont forget the fpl champion done this two seasons ago and took something like a -44 hit and went on to win fpl that year

Can't you see your rivals team value fluctuate throughout the week to keep an eye on transfers or something?

Am I imagining that?

I did 10 + transfers and only hit the wc button yesterday to activate the wc for reasons above

DGW player so rules might be different.

rash and gabbi to anichebe jesus possible?

Gabbi to Lukaku, reckon he'll tear up Watford

I'd just do De Roon to Sané or Pedro then you're G2G.

De roon > Sane

Straight swap with Costa is one option-

The other is to downgrade Alonso/Vert/Hazard (maybe move for Ake who is due a couple of games) and replace Gabby?

Very difficult. Looking at either a straight swap for Costa or having to downgrade one of Sánchez or Hazard in order to bring him in for Gabbiadini.

Does Gabbi & Sane > Jesus and Albrighton work? Very top heavy then but you don't want to lose Costa or Kane

You can always fit Jesus into your team man...

First one, maybe Trippier as the 4.7

Valencia option with Mawson and Jesus inbound is my guess

But lots of games and news to come

I would say yes and the reasons not too is because that sentence is grammatically incorrect.

Unless your budget is constricted, I'd wait as long as possible for more info

Alonso and Gabriel questionable to play both games.

Looks good tbh. Btw, whats your thoughts on Costa? Essential or not for BB37?

Looks good to me, only question mark is Gabriel's game time but it's tricky to find a better option in that price bracket.

Really amazing team,Hard to tell where to improve 😛 Probably upgrade Gabriel based on news of Mustafi's injury

Cheers all.

Pretty template but the extra cash helps you. Can Daniels be a DGW player?

wait and see what happens with Gabbi and Gabriel, but they would be the 2, I would target

Maybe slightly off the wall one here but how about Kompany - 3 home games, likes a goal, complete differential (I know City have defensive issues), seems to be locked in (as much as you can under Pep)

Don't understand the Gabriel Paulista love. If Arsenal play at the back it will be Bellerin at RB. 5 at the back it will be likely be Oxlade. So in the central spots he is fighting with Kosc/Mustafi/Holding and possibly Monreal (if 5 at the back).

Kone - no

King - not for a transfer when he doesn't have a double

Jesus - Is our lord and saviour, blessed be his name.

Yes but Holgate over Kone?

3 Spurs here and a -8 hit as well to compound it.

Not the start I needed!

B

Alonso, plays so far forward it's surprising he hasn't had more attacking returns than he has. Also Terry is going to play when the title is sealed so Cahill be may the one to make way

I'd imagine most active teams (I'm sure some dead teams would be in the top 10k but not many) have at least 2 Spurs. I started the week ranked 9,993 (just inside!) and have Eriksen and Kane. Most teams I see here have at least 2 out of Eriksen, Alli, Kane and Vertonghen.

I'm in the top 500 and have Kane, Alli, Eriksen. I have also taken a -8.

On average about 2 Spurs played for top 10Kers.
Perhaps 20% have 3 making 0.6
Perhaps 65% have 2 making 1.3
1% have 0 making 0
14% have 1 making 0.14

Could turn out to be a blessing in disguise - a lot of us Sanchez triple captainers aren't all that confident of returns...

Gabriel looks the weak spot.

Looks really good - keep an eye on Gabriel and Gabbiadini I guess. If Arsenal defend well with Gabriel in I don't see why Arsene would change things next week.

Lose one of those spurs mids maybe and use the other transfer to upgrade a def

It's pretty pointless most weeks, especially now.

No. I think the same!

Always good to have a rough plan but people saying thing like "Jesus is a must next week" is laughable. Not a personal attack on the poster above, just an example.

Could quite easily be. But he has an extra match hopefully to do something. Personally I have cash in the bank for an upgrade next week to a good DGW player.

I don't have Jesus right now though. SO not everyone went for that front line

True that.... If not for my restrictions, I would have gone for Vardy

Plenty of Anichebe after a few copied Mark.

I have Vardy! Thought I capped him too but when playing the roulette game I left it on Hazard. Oh well...

I have those front 3.. But i benched Gabbi to have all 5 mids play

nah not when Chelsea/Arsenal/City/Spurs have DGWs.

GW38 only.

Maybe Firmino but I guess there are better options around...

Firmino & Coutinho the only two options really, but with no doubles there's better value for around the same price.

Eriksen > Coutinho for 38

so Sanchez + King -> Firmino + Eriksen at GW 38 look like a decent move

Had Fonte from his Southampton's days, didnt made any transfer after that...

Fonte makes 4, no transfers since.

He had Fonte when he was still at Southampton.

Team with 0 transfers. Got Fonte when he was at Southampton.

Reid.

So they're always televised in the UK

They played on Monday last week.

Maybe Pickford, he is the only GK below 4.5 with DGW I guess....

Pickford as he is a good keeper
