The Big Numbers – Gameweek 31

With the previous Gameweek finally coming to its conclusion yesterday evening, we now take time to delve into the data. Amongst tonight’s topics are Chelsea’s stand-in striker and in-form wide man, the City midfield, Palace’s form players at both ends of the pitch and Villa and Arsenal’s clinical frontmen.

    My season and hope of a top 1k finish now depends on Pool dgw announcement and Mourinho's presser. That doesn't sound good

      Top of the page, it's my lucky day!

      Well-you'd better get suited and booted because you have have only 3 weeks to wait.

        The suit has just arrived from the dry cleaners

    So Hull and Liverpool will not play GW33 right?

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Right

    What 3 Chelsea are you aiming to have for the DGW?

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      JT, Haz and er...possibly Ivan.

      1. The Iron Tulip
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        This probably. First 2 for sure, then between ivan and either remy/costa depending on situation.

    2. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Ivan, Haz and Remy/Fab

    3. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Ivan, Hazard +1 (probably Remy)

    4. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Haz, Terry and Fab

    5. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Terry, Hazard and Remy.

  4. HVT

    Just realised how early EPL starts back next season,
    Aug 8th being lined up if England qualify for Euros-looks like a short summer recess so!

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      What will I do in June and July without fpl! 😯

      1. HVT
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Planning?
        We should have fixtures on June 22nd and Fpl is due to open a few days before on the 17th @ 4.30am, wonder will anyone stay up to get low ids?

        1. Sunny 😎
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          When does fpl usually open every season? July?

          1. HVT
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Think so , should be 2/3 weeks earlier this year, could be a short summer that's for sure.

            1. Sunny 😎
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Going to watch out to get a low id next season, not that it matters but still 😀

              Cheers HVT.

      How do you know its Aug 8th?

      Is it confirmed?

  5. foley_fd
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Morning all

    Is Lovren nailed for Liverpool?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      no. playing because of injuries/suspensions

      1. foley_fd
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks - so it's usually Sakho and Skrtel?

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          yeah. them and can when playing 3 centre backs

          1. foley_fd
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Thanks for your help!

            1. Get up ya bum
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              no worries foley 🙂

  6. The Iron Tulip
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Looking to hold this week, what do you guys think?

    Green (Jakupovic)

    Terry - Fonte - Clyne (Rose, Dawson)

    Eriksen - Hazard (c) - Silva - Cazorla (Lucas)

    Austin - Kane - Benteke

    1FT - 7.2ITB - WC available

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I think most will be holding this week - I fancy Benteks will do well at Spuds.

      The gks the weakest point of your team. Get Davis and Pantz in.

      1. The Iron Tulip
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I had Forster and swapped him out for Green for the double but yeah, that is the only area for concern.

    2. Silent Vuvuzela
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Gomis for austin

  7. HVT
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Fair play to hull/pool seems they already discussed the rearrangement of their fixture, no messing about there, nice for the fans to know how they stand-even nicer for fplers !

  8. Gobigorgohome
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    34 or 37? 🙁

    I wish it is 37

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Oi. 👿

    2. Daniel Exeter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Welcome, fellow 37er.

  9. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Leicester have scored 5 goals in their last 2, Arsenal have scored 6.

    I'm not sure Chelsea can get a CS from ars lei.

    Are most doubling on Chelsea defenders for the double?

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      We'll probably get a clean sheet in one of the games and that'll probably be against Arsenal. A 0-0 or 0-1 would suit very well for Jose.

      1. Sunny 😎
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I mean Chelsea not we 😀

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just sticking with Ivan..who hasn't been getting either attacking points or defending CS

    3. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      No

      Ivan, Haz + Remy/Feb is the way to go

    4. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      no idea. I've got moreno, terry, hazard and three trannies (party time)
      I'll let form decide my other 3 or 4 dgwers

    5. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Nope. Ivan, Hazard, 1 more attacker

  10. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    A DGW36 for Liverpool who set this place alive! 😆

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      who? I mean Will

    2. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Anything but 34 and I'm happy

    3. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      And have Liverpool clash with the CL semis? Yeah right.

    4. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      It has to be 34 or 37...unless you really are a billionaire Sheikh and can pay UEFA off!

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        UEFA? 😆

    FPL is my life 🙁

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years

      A little less than 2 months of your life left

      1. Gobigorgohome
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Dear God help me... 🙁

  12. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard or Kane for captain?

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Kane...

  13. Mahesh_Kumar
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Hello all. Is Moreno nailed on at Liverpool or could he be benched if there is a change in formation?

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      nailed on. But Skrtel is the way to go

  14. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    6 Red arrows in a row. A record for myself I think. What would you do with this lot?

    Myhill, Foster*
    JT. Clyne, Kos*, PvA, Hutton*
    Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Siggy, Cork*
    Aguero, Kane, Austin

    Have 1.5m itb, best to save to deal with the blanks next week?

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Save

  15. HVT
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    If you had to pick:
    A - Schmicks
    B - Schlupp
    C - Cambiaso
    D - Maharez

    1. Gobigorgohome
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. Moin

      C

  16. BRONALDINHO
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Am I the only one who doesn't see much a difference when the DGW will be? I can do both! (and I don't even have a WC left)

    1. Daniel Exeter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, you are alone. 🙂

      Will you be having 3 Chelsea and Liverpool?

      1. BRONALDINHO
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        2 Chelski and no Liverpool, you don't actually need 3 pool players. Sure it's way more fun to have more but the chance that all of them perform is very slim IMO

        1. Daniel Exeter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          You're going to just have 2 DGW players?

          1. BRONALDINHO
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            4 if it's 34, probably more if it's 37 but still

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I have moreno terry haz and three trades so not too phased. still prefer 37

    3. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      GW34 is fine for getting 6 of Chelsea/Liverpool but not if you want more (without wildcard) - for a lot of people

  17. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    This is a cracking story. UEFA have confirmed that the final seconds of England Women U19s' European Qualifier against Norway must be replayed tonight because the referee got a rule wrong. England were awarded a penalty in injury time of the game, which Norway won 2-1, but after the assistant spotted encroachment and the spot-kick disallowed, the referee awarded a free-kick to Norway instead of a re-take.

    Both teams will play their final group games tomorrow at 3pm (England v Switzerland and Norway v Northern Ireland) in Belfast before England and Norway meet up for the penalty.

    Paramedics, stewards, match delegates and officials will all be required for just seconds of football.

      I am not going to comment Moin, an Upvote should suffice.

        Seems like it! Everyone should tune in and watch this historic moment

  18. Fred54
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Already sold Aguero for Remy and thinking about doing Sanchez to Cambiasso for GW 33.

    At least budget won't be an issue for me come the run in!

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      "out of business" 😆

      Nice!

  21. GoonerByron
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Am I the only one planning on ignoring Chelsea's DGW?

    I have Hazard and have had all season but getting in a striker or defender would mean completely changing my team.. Not sure it's worth it. Minus points for Chelsea defence in one of the games anyway 😉

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Wouldn't say you're the only one but you're definitely in a small minority

    2. @ImpressiveTackl
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      You're probably one of few, especially after the large contingent who ignored DGW31.

      1. Jax
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        you'd expect one of the games chelsea will keep a clean sheet in

  22. @ImpressiveTackl
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    2 FTs, 1.3m in bank and probably Wildcarding in GW34. Current team:

    Panti (Krul)
    Toby Terry Bellerin (Wolly NAUGHTON)
    Silva Hazard Sanchez Eriksen Moses
    Aguero Kane (Austin)

    Naughton and Austin looking prime candidates for the chop. Only 2 gameweeks until wildcard so don't mind going punty. Ideas?

    1. Silent Vuvuzela
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Similar to mine. Maybe Mane for moses or double saints defence. Vardy an option too

  23. foley_fd
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Regardless of when it is, who is the Liverpool midfielder to bring in here?

    Is Sterling significantly better than Coutinho?

    1. FISSH
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Hendo for me

    2. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Henderson is actually top of my list at the moment.....sounds crazy to say it out loud.

      1. foley_fd
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Wow - yes, that has come as a surprise to me!

    3. Bojaninho
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Form wise i think between Coutinho and Hendo edge it plus they are cheaper. It is a bit of a coin toss. Hendon has pens and some set pieces.

      1. foley_fd
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Interesting thoughts - thanks!

    4. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd want Sterling if he's playing in his right position, but I'm also looking at Henderson.

  24. FISSH
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Cant wait to hear when the double is for Liverpool so I can start taking hits baby!

  25. Pringle
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Who do you prefer this gameweek this gameweek only? Mata, Ozil or Ramsey?

    1. @ImpressiveTackl
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Ramsey

    2. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Probably Ozil.

    3. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Ozil

  26. l@sp0
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    So Cech going on loan to Southampton to finish the season is just a rumour? Because bringing in Kelvin Davies might not be the best idea then...

    1. Jax
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      he won't. saints have enough cover.

    2. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Cech won't but I fear saints might try to get someone else in. Not sure if they'll be allowed to though

  27. Doolittle
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Morning all, who would you rather have for this GW only?

    A) Eriksen and Austin
    B) Puncheon and Remy

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      B

      1. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers Andy, still struggling to decide whether to use my 2FTs on that switch or just do a dull keeper swap this week and do the other 2 next week.

  28. foley_fd
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Yep, I need a Liverpool DGW 37.

    Just can't squeeze in everyone I want alongside a Chelsea trio.

  29. Project Rascal
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    So tempted to take Aguero out for Gomis....daft?

    1. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I think it's daft. Do you need the money, or do you simply think Gomis will outscore him?

      1. Project Rascal
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I know, it sounds daft when i say it out loud. But, Aguero has not been performing and Gomis is starting to find form...

        1. Doolittle
          • 11 Years
