Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 38

The 2016/17 season comes to a close this afternoon, with all 10 Gameweek 38 matches getting underway at 3pm.

We’re spoilt for choice in terms of armband options for the final round of fixtures, with the top three players in this week’s Captain Poll – Alexis Sanchez, Harry Kane and Philippe Coutinho – are serving up their highest hauls of the season in Gameweek 37.

Kane’s four-goal blitz at the King Power takes him two ahead of his nearest challenger Romelu Lukaku for the Golden Boot, while Sanchez welcomes Everton on the back of three successive double-figure tallies.

Throw in champions Chelsea at home to relegated Sunderland (Eden Hazard and Diego Costa both start) and Man City’s trip to a decimated Watford defence and it’s fair to say that goals look very much on Sunday’s agenda.

So sit back and enjoy the frantic next couple of hours’ action – it won’t be until August 12 before domestic action comes back our way again.

          You only pipe up when you've done something.

      I was thinking a few of us scored BIG for sure! Well done.

  2. Piggs Boson

    How does this move look?

    Ozil/Costa -> Aguero/Siggy (-4)??

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      save it for a few months

    2. Crow
      • 7 Years

      There's no more games

      1. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 day ago

      2. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 day ago

        I think that's the joke

    3. Boetticher
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Don't take the hit.

  3. Mighty

    Think I lost my big money league on transfer made...

    1. Crow
      • 7 Years

      Ouch

  4. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    So who won the game?

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Football was the winner

    2. Blue Bombers CFC
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Crabtree

  5. fedolefan
    • 9 Years

    7K right now, 83 with bonus. Probably remain in the top 10K no?

    1. Azathoth
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Definitely.

      1. fedolefan

    So glad i did Gabbiadini to Llorente.

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Me too. Seemed a bit sideways, but great move in the end.

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Great call

    3. RedMarks 赤的
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      Done it before dgw 37

    4. PÍE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      I had intended to do that. Then just did Bailly to Matip instead and went 4-4-2 with Gab on bench...
      Think I would have hit 100 if I'd done what you did.

  7. F4L
    • 9 Years

    1. Les Bleus

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years

    3. Azathoth
      • 9 Years

    • 7 Years

  10. We Will Klopp you
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    Should get to and exceed the 100 point mark (at 90 atm) if all goes well with baps ((K)ane, Jesus, Sanchez, Coutinho, Eriksen/Alli)

    "Can't wait for Bayern Munich to get knocked out of Champions League in group stage & then knock Arsenal out of the Europa League last 16!"

    What a tweet!!

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

  12. The Enlightener
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    40 pts down in 2 ML going into today (same guy was ahead of me in both) and I think I may have won them by a point or so. Gotta do,the math again, but holy moly. This may be beyond an amazing final day!

    Hey, folks, what happens if you tie at the end of a Knockout H2H league?

  17. the snazzy viking

    I found another few rules for FPL Gameweek 38:

    1. Try to play AoA chip
    2. Captain golden boot leaders
    3. Don't take last minute hits

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      3 is applicable to all gameweeks, agree with the other two though

  18. Deulofail
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    What's your prem team, and what players would you like to bring to your team the most next season?

    I would like to see Willian or Mane at Arsenal (I know it won't happen). I really like Redmond too, but there's always a risk he becomes another Saints disappointment under Wenger (if he stays). Sturridge I would like, too, but he'll be priced like diamond instead of glass.

  19. FALCAO & MOU
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    Sanchez was a league above others this season.

    1. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 day ago

      We need him to stay..

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years

      Absolute legend

  20. Mesh

  21. United10
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    Best season yet for me. I have won 3 of my main mini leagues. 1 of them in which I wasnt a contender until the very end. Just won it by 2 points after full calculations. Great success! 😀

  22. Crow

    Time to turn tv off, dont want to watch the bond villain showing what he can win with dirty money.

  29. Puntillimon
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 day ago

    72 pre baps seems below average - not owning kane was the pivotal mistake
