Looking at some of the other former champions, MCH takes on BroTown_Tindersticks, Jonty is up against coletrickle88, donnellyc squares up to Carlton Palmer and Gooner Dave takes on Fitzy.

The tie of the round sees two of the top 500 FPL managers go head-to-head.Skeptical, currently sitting in 136th spot in the overall standings, take on Lardy, who isn’t far behind in 470th spot.

      Very similar players to me not playing bar Gabbidon. Here's hoping Mirallas plays both games in the DGW....

      I think that's pretty average Tony. I've got 6 or 7 myself. I'm not too worried about those fielding 11 as the extra players usually look a bit crap.

      I'd ditch Gabbi ASAP, he's not going to see any gametime and you're short quite a few players. Perfect timing to take a hit for a defender, no?

    Man City's next DGW can't be earlier than GW34. This is the time to load up on City, not GW31. Do yourselves a favour and look at their fixtures, they not scoring as freely as the beginning of the season and loading up on City too early has the potential to ruin a lot of seasons. There are plenty of options for GW31 , do a bit of research and make a non-template team, itsthe only way to get up the rankings. Also losing Chelsea players could hurt you, look at their fixtures post GW31 they will be absolute gold. Just my thoughts for the day.

      You're right about the fact that there can't be a DGW until GW34 and that their fixtures are rough until then.

      Chelsea look more likely to proceed in the champions league, therefore more chance of rotation in the premiership. For that reason and the DGW,s I will stick to more city players.

    boruc
    olsson, azpilicueta, chambers
    mata, noone, hazard, adam
    adebayor, van persie

    However, in the last few days I've suffered injuries to olsson and nooone, as well as a three match ban for Adam. I have 0.2M in the bank...

    I don't know if many here agree but I see most people here having a very short term view when considering DGW players. Its not just about fielding the most DGW players. Many are missing that they will need to transfer out many of them and probably for hits (since most already used their WC) after that since they have terrible fixtures or play for a terrible team or both. The best example is people having rvp,mata and evra. Thats almost 1/3 of ur budget for 3 underperforming players playing for a terrible team (performance wise) when you can fied another 3 players for half the value maybe not having DGW and get much more points.

        Im expecting Evra to not get any CS and could even get a big zero for the City game. As for RVP and Mata, they won't get enough points to justify their 22+ price. I see Aguero or Yaya to outscore all 3 of them tbh.

        I see the City game as a game with very low points for Utd players so its as if utd play 1 game actually.

    Fixtures in GW34 involving teams still in FA Cup
    --------------------------------
    Man Utd vs Hull City
    Sunderland vs Everton
    Arsenal vs West Ham
    Liverpool vs Man City

    - No CL games between GW34 & GW35.. above games could be played in midweek.

    - If Man City progress to FA Cup SF.. there game against Liverpool could be moved to midweek and no DGW for Man City in GW34.

    - Postponed Everton vs Palace game could be played in GW34.
    Everton vs Sunderland & PALACE
    Palace vs ASTON VILLA & Everton

    - Man City vs Sunderland and Man City vs Aston Villa may have to wait for few more weeks.

    Thanks!

        That's what I mean. It's more like FPL than UFPL this GW. No changing from Saturday night until Sunday like you can on UCL or on normal UFPL gameweeks where you can change players and captain mid GW. Mind you I'm doing sh*!e. Just got Murray in and captained him. Race to the bottom 😉

    I am planning for gw 31 and I am unsure whether it is best to double up on Everton defence or spread the risk by including a City defender. The options are:

    A. Coleman, Distin
    B. Coleman, Kolarov
    C. Kompany, Distin

    City's fixtures in GW 31: FULHAM, man utd. Followed by arsenal in GW 32.
    Everton's fixtures in GW 31: SWANSEA, newcastle. Followed by fulham in GW 32.

    I am tempted by option A since I really like Everton fixtures. But City's match home vs. Fulham can be huge. Imagine Kolarov going crazy in that match. C is a safe option since it spreads the risk and includes two nailed-on players. What do you think is the best option and why?

    Thankful for all replies on this one! .

                Yeah exactly, that's the problem, hard to pick one of them because you're relying on attacking threat. Might as well go Jags for BAPS or Distin for price, no? Either one in their back four is a legitimate choice, Baines has the biggest upside with penos though.

                    😀 I love his set-pieces those, the fixtures they have could have goals in them, especially with Lukaku back battering opponents on set-pieces. This will be a tough choice :\ I haven't owned Baines so far this season, feels wrong!
