With Fantasy owners of Luis Suarez and Olivier Giroud scouring the market in light of their recent suspensions, focus is falling on those forwards with a double Gameweek 36 amongst their respective schedules. Romelu Lukaku and Arouna Kone have both arrived on Fantasy radars over the last few days and, as the Fantasy transfer market picks up pace, we analyse their performances over the last six Gameweeks.

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

      Just for the record - I am no FPL wizard.

      However, I've got both - had Kone before, brought in Tevez for Suarez.

        don't think he will be rested against west brom? Wigan will fight toot and nail to avoid relegation, and i don't think Martinez has the luxury to rotate his stikers like Mancini.

          Of course there's the chance of rotation no doubts.....but he's the most likely to start (just about). And Tev could out score Kone with just one game anyway.

          If you look at Kone's stats they aren't that great at all

      The only thing is Wigan will definitely score goals against Brom and Swansea - two teams on the beach - if not explode in typical Wigan late season style. Surely, surely Kone will be involved in most of the action FPL wise and indeed on the pitch

    Was'nt aguero on the bench at the weekend? couple that with dzeko startin 11 of the last 14 and there's no guarantee that tevez will get THAT many minutes over the next few imo.. would get him for free, but maybe not for a hit and maybe not for rvp

      Anything over 4 points needs serious consideration and certain guarantee of points recovery.

      Defoe is unecessary and smacks of the kneejerkery on here.

      Bale and Hart, I can agree. CHS are a risk though and have tough fixtures in the dgw. I'm thinking of leaving well alone.

            Yep Aguero is a difficult one.
            Bit easier for you as you can definetely keep Mirallas this week and then ditch next.
            I'm thinking I need to do this Berba => Aguero this week or forget it.

            Might be overthinking, but if I think this week and Berba + 4 points vs Aguero, I just might take Berba.
            Then next week Berba has Reading home and Aguero might not get much more than 90 mins..but then again, Aguero could be great differential..

                chasing in season ml, but leading in monthly competition, so might play safe and just keep Berba.

      Hello my "twin brother".
      Really don't know which one, Everton boys are difficult because they have such a good fix again gw37, so ideally would like to keep Baines & Fellaini.
      Propably B) out of those.

      I'm thinking Rvp, Berba, Caz => Tevez, Aguero, Bale (-4) this week and then Mirallas => Kone gw36.

      Gives me this for doubles
      Robles
      Baines, Clichy, Dawson
      Bale, Michu, Maloney, Walcott (Fellaini)
      Tevez, Aguero, Kone

      Obviously not happy to lose Rvp, but can't really find another way to get Bale in this week.
      Also that Berba => Aguero for a hit is killing me, not sure it's worth it.

          I don't see the point of keeping someone like Baines for the WHM game, because frankly the other 2 games are almost certainly 1/2 pointers for him. You could get Vertonghen for example with better fixtures and a DGW...

          And Fellaini has had, what, 2 shots in 3 games? Hardly the option he was earlier in the season.

    Good Morning!

    If Evans, Hazard, RVP are all likely to play this weekend I will save my transfer and do Kebe->Maloney next week and Lambert to Lukaku (-4). However if any of those 3 defenders are unlikely to feature I will do Harte -> Dawson (-4) to ensure I have 3 starting defenders this GW (I have Harte and Turner) and next GW do Lambert->Kone.

    What do you think?

    Right at the moment I will def have the following dgwers:
    Hart
    Bale
    Michu
    Maloney
    Tevez

    I'll play single gameweekers Martin, RVP and Walcott in 36.

    This essentially leaves me two possible defensive slots and either a mid or a striker for the dgw, with Fellaini, Baines, Sagna, Remy being potentially expendable.

    Who would be the best options, and how many? All transfers would be next week, with one free.

        Tempted by Mata/Hazard, but tough fixtures and possible rotation.

        Dempsey/Siggy - gametime worries. Lennon is back.

        Defoe and Kone both decent options. Worried over Lukaku gametime and motivation of West Brom.
