Our post-Gameweek members article is served up this Wednesday lunchtime as we assess some of the stand-out performers over the previous round of fixtures.

Harry Kane, Roberto Firmino and Harry Maguire all catch the eye, and with double Gameweeks predominant in our planning, we also take time out to analyse Manchester United, Crystal Palace and Middlesbrough assets ahead of their pair of upcoming matches.

    Bailly or PVA?

    Already have Valencia, Gibson...

    1. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Bailly

    2. Holmes

      Bailly. Gametime.

      1. Dele
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks chaps.

        Trying to talk myself out of Ibra and pack out the defence with DGW players. Would leave me with.

        Jaku,
        Valencia, Gibson, Bailly
        Eriksen, Dele, Sanchez, Coutinho
        Benteke, Lukaku, Kane

        Still tempted by Kaku to Ibra, scared to go without.

    3. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Bailly

  2. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Who to bring in for Brunt? Gibson or Daniels ?

    1. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Gibson

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Gibson

  3. Bobby_Baggio
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Which one lads? Using my WC for GW36 and BB for GW37

    Heaton
    Chambers | Luiz | Davies
    Sanchez | Zaha | Alli | DeRoon | Cout
    Lukaku | Kane

    Origi | Baines | Mawson

    A) Origi > Negredo -4 (Use my AOA/Don't use AOA)
    B) Origi + Mawson > Negredo + Bailey -8 (Use my AOA/Don't use AOA)
    C) Origi + Heaton > Negredo + DDG -8 (Use my AOA/Don't use AOA)
    C) Save and play above team

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      How about just Heaton -> De Gea?

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        negredo i feel will get at least 1 goal out of the two compared to origi and DDG will get at least 6 points compared to heaton who will get 2

  4. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Hope FPL don't prematurely list Firmino as a striker next season. Looks like Klopp will be signing a new CF anyway, with Bobby F in behind.

    1. dicky2014
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      They would have too, surely?

    2. Crow
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Which one of origi/sturridge will be leaving then?

  5. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    How many DGW players do you have this week and how many hits?
    Me: 5 - no hits. (might change my mind if injuries later in the week of course)

    1. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      5, no hits, but benching de Roon so 4 will be playing

    2. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      4, 1 hit.

    3. A.T
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      4 no hits.

    4. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      4, saving transfer

    5. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      3. Saving FT

    6. Jazz!
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      6, no hits.

    7. soup natsi
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      3, two of them doubtful to play both (Valdes, Chambers) and have no mids or forwards at the moment.
      Will probably go with 5 with a hit.

    8. slamdunk
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      4 no hits

    9. Dele
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      4 no hits but looking at Ibra...

      Bye bye Lukaku.

    10. Kane-harry Island
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      3 (brought in valdes and Rojo), took a hit. 2 of them (Valdes, Chambers) are not even certain to start.

    11. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      1 banker in Zaha.

      Bad luck with Chambers and especially Valdes.

      Valencia also now a risk.

      Should have 4 from my planning but that seems pointless at times 🙂

    12. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      6. 1 hit

    13. GertJan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      3 and saving FT.

    14. Lawrø
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      3 if I'm lucky

    15. Deano
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      7, -8

  6. zizoo10
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Best 4.9 dgw defender?

    1. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Chambers or Friend (I think they'll start both, that's my opinion though)

    2. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      PVA

    3. 1Banksy

    4. Chris_White

    Who you do aguero to negredo for this game week only?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      For fun, sure...

      Dont know if it'll bring more points or not 😳

  8. 1Banksy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    I bought in Friend but PVA perfect for your value, probably more explosive too.

    1. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Nah, Friend's the better option out of them imo

    2. zizoo10
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      cheers, i think friend will outscore pva anyway, so might stick with him

  9. cescpistols1
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Pickford Jaku
    Valencia Pieters Smith Holgate Yoshida
    Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Sterling Zaha
    Ibra Lukaku Barnes

    0.1 ITB, 1 FT. Would you make any change?

  10. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    My team for GW34:

    Valdes*
    Bailly* Alonso Friend*
    Alli Zaha* Siggy De Roon*
    Aguero Kane Lukaku(C)

    Bench: Pickford Tadic Davies Robertson

    0FT / 2.5ITB

    Already on -4, anything else worth a hit? Bench in order?

    1. DHWizzo
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      When are people planning to Triple Captain?

      Doesn't seem like anyone is going that route this week, so could be a nice differential. Using it this week enables the WC in 36 rather than 35, which could be useful (bench boost obviously held for 37).

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Sanchez GW36 is what most are going for

        1. trinzoo
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          How about those with WC ?

  11. thomashl
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Play Maguire or King?

    Pickf
    Alonso Valencia Gibson (Mag)
    Alli Eriksen Zaha (King)
    Kane Kaku Benteke/Negredo

    1. DHWizzo
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I am likely playing Maguire ahead of Alonso (gulp).

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Ballsy! I like.

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      never bench King

      1. Darklord_bg
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        This

      2. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Mag or Gibson, then?

  12. zizoo10
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Foster/Llorente/Coleman > DDG/Negredo(C)/Friend(bench Robertson)

    -8, good?

    1. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      wow you still have coleman ...
      those transfers look good .do it

      1. zizoo10
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        he's been a gorilla on my back ever since i brought him in.

    2. DHWizzo
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      -4 to not play Robertston who has a good shout at a CS?

      Friend just back from injury and not played much either.

      That would make me sweat a little, for sure.

      1. zizoo10
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        true, i get carried away at times.
        might go with foster/sanchez/llorente > ddg/cabaye/ibra(C) instead

        1. Colonel Klink
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          But then that's a -8 and you still have Coleman.

  13. MMN
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    1 FT, 0.6m ITB.

    Valdes (Pickford)
    Mustafi, Davies, Chambers, (Ward, Stephens)
    Sanchez, Firmino, Alli, Coutinho, Walcott
    Ibra, Lukaku (Anichebe)

    Thoughts appreciated!

    1. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Get rid of Walcott for Zaha f.ex

      1. MMN
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Thought's on Townsend?

        1. thomashl
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Hard to tell. Seems like a coin toss, really. Nice differential, Townsend seems to be more involved scoring while zaha gets assists. I wouldn't double up this gw (zaha owner myself)

          1. MMN
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Ye I'm pretty much deciding between Townsend, Zaha and Sane (no WC).

    2. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Wally to Zaha yes

      1. MMN
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Thought's on Townsend vs Zaha?

    3. MMN
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      WC used already, Sane a better option considering it will save a hit later?

  14. SMOOTH
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    A. Ibra Robertson Zaha
    B. Lukaku Robertson Zaha + 4
    C. Lukaku Townsend Zaha (AOA)

    1. Dele
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      C

  15. DHWizzo
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    ...

    When are people planning to Triple Captain?

    Doesn't seem like anyone is going that route this week, so could be a nice differential. Using it this week enables the WC in 36 rather than 35, which could be useful (bench boost obviously held for 37).

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      The best TC options are in GW 37.

      I'm seriously considering using my BB either 34 or 36 (after WC in 35) and the using my TC on Sanchez or Kane in 37.

      Who do you have in mind for this week? Ibra not guaranteed two starts, and Benteke has terrible fixtures.

    2. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      who are you using TC on this week?

      1. DHWizzo
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Ibra is the only option.

        His away record is excellent he has had his rest and I suspect he will see certainly the next few games out until 4th is out of reach (post Manchester Derby).

        Maybe Valencia isn't a bad shout though. One clean-sheet and 8-points minimum? Not explosive, but...

  16. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    1FT, 2.9m ITB.

    A. Valdes > DDG
    B. Stones > Bailly
    C. Barnes > Benteke

    Team:
    Valdes (Jakupovic)
    Walker • Valencia • Chambers (Stones • Stephens)
    Zaha • Sanchez • Alli • Coutinho • Sane
    Kane • Lukaku (Barnes)

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      All 3 are good options.
      Definitely C.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        C involves a bench headache though? Who would I bench?

        1. Phil Dagger ⭐
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          sane

        2. The 12th Man
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Would have to be Sane against United.

    2. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Tekkers

  17. Darklord_bg
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Ok, gents, what to do:

    Pick, Foster
    Alonso, VAlencia, Yoshida, Fabio, Amat
    Sanchez, Eriksen, Alli, Siggy, Zaha
    Ibra, Lukaku, Barnes

    1 FT, 1.8 itB

    I'm thinking Fabio/Foster to Gibson/DDG for -4.
    Then WC next week.
    What do you think?

  18. Meme2011
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    A) Bravo, Chambers, Yoshida, Son, King

    or

    B) De Gea, Stones, Yoshida, Son, JWP,

    or

    C) De Gea, Stones, Lovren, King, Redmond

    for rest of season or suggestions?

    1. RealSocialDads
      • 9 Years

      B

      1. Meme2011
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        just have this horrible feeling King might explode

  19. Viprin
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    The closer the gameweek deadline,the more I think Negredo(C) makes sense

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Why ?

      1. Viprin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Idk,dgw fever?

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years

      You have a beer an hour till then like?

    3. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Not any worse than Ibra(c) or Benteke(c) for sure. None of those fill me with confidence.

  20. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Would you try to get Valdes or Hennessey and cheap Boro def for a hit .

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      ?

  21. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Who here is shipping Romelu this week?

    I plan to ship next week for Gabiadini.

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Next week for Kane 🙂

    2. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Did it this week for Kane

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Already have Kane. Good move

        1. UnitedFan
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Thanks. I just feel it's pointless for me owning Lukaku as I'm at a poor OR and need to start climbing

  22. cescpistols1
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Pickford Jaku
    Valencia Pieters Smith Holgate Yoshida
    Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Sterling Zaha
    Ibra Lukaku Barnes

    0.1 ITB, 1 FT. Would you make any change??

  23. meenabakery
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Ladies, gentlemen, I am at a complete and utter loss about what to do with this team. It's decent enough, but it is exceedingly badly positioned with respect to the upcoming double gameweeks, and there is a highly regrettable preponderance of Swansea players in there, for some reason. Take a look:

    Heaton (Robinson)
    Valencia Walker Brunt (Pieters Kingsley)
    Sanchez Alli King Sigurdsson (De Roon)
    Lukaku Kane Llorente

    1FT, 0.3 in the bank.

    I have so many possible ideas in mind it might be pointless listing them, but a few:

    1) Siggy > Zaha
    2) Siggy + Llorente > Zaha + Negredo/Benteke (-4)
    3) Llorente + Brunt > Negredo + Van Aanholt (-4)

    I have a range of other ideas that involve Ibrahimovic, Origi etc. but, for now, anyone got the faintest idea what I should be prioritising here? One or possibly both of Llorente and Siggy must surely make way.

    Cheers, sorry for the long post.

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Siggy + Llorente -> Zaha + Benteke looks decent enough.

      You can even take more hits, even up to -12 could pay off.

      1. meenabakery
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I'm a bit cautious about taking too many hits, but thanks.

    2. Boris Bodega
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      2 makes sense.

      1. meenabakery
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks, and I agree.

    3. RealSocialDads
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      2 with Negredo

      1. meenabakery
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yes, I also lean toward Negredo. Better fixtures, spread the risk, and he's having a bit of a renaissance at the minute.

  24. thomashl
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Do you reckon De Gea will play both matches if he doesn't play Thursday?

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Most probably...though you never know with Mou.

    2. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, he's our best keeper and they're important games. No reason to rest him

    3. Jay_
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Should do, my pal on here, Jazz (UTD fan) told me he'll play league games from now on 🙂

        1. Jay_
            8 years, 7 months ago

            * play all league games

      • Jay_
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Say its gw37 and this is a BB team

          DDG Cech
          Alonso Valencia Mustafi *** Yoshida
          Sanchez Alli Eriksen *** JWP
          Kane *** Gabbiadini

          A) Holgate Sane Costa
          B) PVA Zaha Ibra/Costa

          What do you prefer? Asking now as getting PVA in for Holgate would mean being stuck with Zaha (no wildcard) I'm leaning A) as City and Chelsea attackers seem vital but maybe I'm looking too far ahead?

            which is the safer punt this week?

            A) Rashford

            B) Pogba

              B

              B more likely to play I would guess, but A much more potential.

              Rashford

                Such a thing as a safe punt? Rashford is the puntier of the two so i guess that makes Pogba the safer

              Zaha v Townsend - my thoughts:

              Zaha going at Bavies/Milner, Townsend at Clyne/Walker probably. Advantage Zaha there perhaps.

              Townsend extra motivation v Spurs? Potentially fresher at this point in season. Better BAP potential.

              Both getting plenty of minutes. Both fairly selfish and prone to wildness. Both very similar in price.

              Really worried I will choose wrong one. Would get both but not for -8.

                I think if you're going to count motivation, Zaha will have as much, if not more, against Spurs as Townsend will.

                Both are good options, Townsend if want more of a differential

                  8 years, 7 months ago

                  My ML rival has Zaha and with a small lead the cover option is the safe play, even though I'd rather go AT. Also have decent OR for the safety option.

                  1. UnitedFan
                    • 10 Years
                    8 years, 7 months ago

                    Yep, Zaha looks the pick in your situation

                    same situation as u..chasing 13 pts but i want be ballsy and going for AT

                    ML has zaha

                      8 years, 7 months ago

                      Good luck - it could go either way so you are right to go AT I think

                If I could reverse my Zaha transfer and go with Townsend I would. Didnt factor the BAP-ability of Townsend, which is what you want in the DGW.

                1. GENERATION X
                  • 12 Years
                  8 years, 7 months ago

                  Both may well be an option with the good GW35 if you have WC. Mi issue is I have Benteke and that would really be overkill.

                  1. Kloppen Schloppen
                    • 8 Years
                    8 years, 7 months ago

                    If you have Benteke, maybe you don't need either...

                    I have Zaha, not getting Benteke because don't think he's worth -4 if Zaha will most likely match his output.

                    I think the defense is where most of the DGW points will come from to be honest.

                    1. GENERATION X
                      • 12 Years
                      8 years, 7 months ago

                      Not for me - I can't see Palace holding Pool or Spurs to zero, they are too free scoring. For me its Palace attack for 3 games then WC, so 2 of them appeal. Man U and Boro I think will get one CS from two.

                      I have Bailly and will likely go Gibson as the FT - so one of these makes a -4 which I think is reasonable.

              1 free transfer. thinking B. Thoughts?

              A) Heaton --> Valdes

              B) Baines --> Gibson
