A little later than usual, we look back on the previous round of fixtures after last night’s Manchester derby brought the curtain down on Double Gameweek 34.

As many of us prepare to unleash our second Wildcards, a number of big-hitters make a strong claim for our plans over the remaining four Gameweeks.

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

    Too risky to pick Zabaleta for WC next week?

    1. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      it is imo. no city defender nailed on really with Pep, the fixtures & the options he has

    Fosu-Mensah also injured - https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/apr/28/wayne-rooney-midfield-manchester-united-swansea

    Does this = nailed on Bailly!? Or Darmian or something stepping in to centre back? He looked shot after the game!

      Later in same article:

      As Mourinho’s only fit first-choice central defender is Eric Bailly, the 19-year-old Axel Tuanzebe may be given a chance. “In this moment he [Bailly] is the only option we have. It’s Axel, Eric and Daley [Blind]. I think Eric and Daley they played again absolutely amazingly against City. I have to speak with them and see how they are, see how they feel.”

      UGH what a ballake

        Thats good news as a Blind/Bailly owner - cant see them saying I don't want to play and things are going great at the back.

    Sorry for the repost but I made a mistake on my previous one
    A) Cech, Sanchez, Rashford
    B) Pickford, Ozil, Vardy

    Foster
    Alonso Smith Valencia
    Eriksen King Zaha Sanchez
    Kane Benteke Lukaku

    Bench: Pickford, Baines, Carroll, Holebas

    Will WC in 36.

    A. Sanchez > Coutinho for the one week punt (won't lose TV)
    B. Lukaku > Gabbiadini
    C. Baines or Valencia > Bailly or some other defender

  6. Scheister
    • 13 Years

    WC active!
    Can't decide on last 6.2 defender. Koscielny or Vertonghen maybe?

    Cab
    Bailly Yoshi Stephens
    Sanchez Hazard Alli King Sane
    Kane(C) Gabbi(V)

    Pickford Anichebe Monreal __?__

    1. KickIt

      Vert....Kos might be injured

      1. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Don't think I'd play either this week. Really just setting up for the next few...

      2. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Either way, will be a benching headache in 36

    Best 1 week midfielder punt who isn't king for under 7.5?
    Tadic?

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Son, imo. Walcott or Redmond, if you wish to prepare for the doubles.

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Thanks Doos! Been a while! Btw WCing next week so purely one week.

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 3 days ago

          Son easily, then.

    2. BananaNose Maldonado
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      I posed the Tadic vs. Arnie one-week punt earlier, and all the responses favored Arnie. I'm undecided, but it gave me (unexpected) pause.

      1. b✪mber
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Gonna punt the C again this week. Going with Tadic - hoping for a hot captaincy streak 🙂

    3. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Arnie?

  10. AC Pilkington
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Is Origi nailed?

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Seems like it

    2. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Lallana back and Sturridge available may see reduced opportunities

  11. Concrete
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    On WC

    Alli or Eriksen... Eriksen wins on comparison tool and .4 extra cash

    Gabriel or Monreal

    Stephens or Yoshida

    1. Garam MOSALAH
      • 12 Years

  12. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Can some kind person make the case for Gabbiadini rather better than the above? I just can't see it, but don't want to miss a trick.

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      I can't see it

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…

        Cheers. Me neither.

    2. BananaNose Maldonado
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      He's had four goals and an assist in about five games'-worth of playing time, has two double game weeks, has been getting decent touches in the box, and strong numbers for shots in the box, shots on target, chances per minute. The fixtures aren't all great, but there's an awful lot to like at that price, to be honest.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        OK. Thanks for your input!

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 days ago

          No problem. I'm sure he'll now blank for the rest of the season, Doos 🙂

    How does this Wc team look

    Jaku caballero

    Luiz blind Holgate Stephens vert

    Hazard Eriksen king sterling Sanchez

    Gabbi Costa anichebe

    Do I get Vert or monreal?

    1. MGD
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Sterling risky ?
      Kane instead of Costa?
      Alli for Eriksen?

      Good timing, Rupert, I'm looking for any Jesus news. Have we had Pep's press conference today?

      Have earmarked Lukaku > Jesus with my FT with week.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Not a conference but Ive been keeping an eye on their twitter and get some info there.

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 3 days ago

          Cheers. Am wondering if the game last night and post match press conference means he won't give another today. The Manchester Evening News website is usually a good source of info.

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 3 days ago

            Frustration has gotten to me, just did Willy to Cech and I'll monitor the situation.

    3. Mark-O

    4. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Doesn't mean Pep will rush him back though.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Nope, I'm just posting it, take from it what you will.

      “I am sad, because the goal was offside,” he said.

      “But apart from that, it’s great to be back knowing I could score.

      “This gives me a lot of confidence to carry on and taking this into the next games. I know I can carry on doing, what I was doing before and what I like the most, which is play (football).”

      1. Dynamo Chicken
        • 15 Years

        I think I have found my captain. I like the way Pep's face lights up when he talks about him.

  19. Sebbo29
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Chances of PVA finally starting? Team news says yes. Point is I have a DEF of Alonso/Yoshi/Holgate/Gibson/PVA so thinking of whether it's necessary to use 1 FT to bring in another DEF. Rest of team is OK

    1. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Sam said they need to win to guarantee safety. Can't see him resting Schlupp.

      I own PVA, I'm going to hold as I'm he could get a game in 37 but if it's unlikely I'll drop him then

  20. mcsteely
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    9 years, 3 days ago

    Any views on this wildcard team:

    Caballero, Pickford
    Kompany, Monreal, Yoshida, Stephens, Holgate
    Sanchez, Hazard, Eriksen, King, Albrighton
    Kane, Costa, Gabbiadini

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Nicely structured. All the big hitters in there.

      I have a small doubt about Monreal and Gibbs rotating during the DGWs though. Gabriel might be a safer but less exciting option.

    2. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Wouldn't double City...wouldn't surprise me if Vinny sat this Sunday out
      Double Soton defence although cheap I'm unsure of
      The rest looks strong

    3. S.Agueroooooo

    Which is the better move

    Replace Gibson with Clichy

    Or

    Replace Grant with Caballero

    1. Concrete

    Well, I am going to try with this:

    GW 35:

    Cech
    Stones, Azpilicueta, Francis
    Sánchez(vc), Eriksen, King(c), Redmond
    Kane, Costa, Barnes

    Heaton; Walcott, Yoshida, Aké … WC, 1.0 ITB, TV: 102.1, SV: 100.5

      Not tempted by Caballero & Gabriel over Cech & Stones to allow an upgrade on Ake?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Not really, Ferris. I have crap TV, and, Aké might play - who knows? 🙂

        Also, Caballero's a bit crap, imo! 😀

        1. Ferris Bueller
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 days ago

          Fair point well made Doos! City fixtures certainly make Stones a risk with great upside. Good luck

      I'd probably look for a way to dump Siggy. Tadic maybe a good replacement?

  24. hamgrumps
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    On WC, TC and BB left. BB37 and TC either Sanchez/Gabbi 36 or Spurs/Chelsea 38. Trying to figure out if it's worth fitting in Costa. Also not really sure on defenders. A or B?

    A.
    Pickford - Forster
    Vertonghen - Gabriel - Yoshida - Alonso - Holgate
    Hazard - Sanchez - Eriksen - Sane - Carroll
    Gabbiadini - Kane - Costa

    B.
    Pickford - Forster
    Monreal - Daniels - Yoshida - Alonso - Kompany or Bailly or 6.5 def (Chelsea?)
    Hazard - Sanchez - Eriksen - Alli - King
    Gabbiadini - Kane - Anichebe or Afobe

    Carroll and Anichebe/Afobe would be BB37 players only.

  25. S.Agueroooooo
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    On WC Benteke for this week or just go for Jesus or Costa?

    Regardless of who i'll leave value enough for up to costa to be able to move if needs be:

    Cab, Pickford
    Alonso, Monreal, Vert, Yoshida, Holgate
    Haz, Sanchez, Eriksen, King, Albrighton
    Kane, Gabb, Costa*

    1. Concrete
      • 11 Years

      Same position....leaning Benteke atm

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Benteke then move him out next week.

    2. TaiwanHC

      • 10 Years

      probably wont start the 4 games in 2 dgw back to back... Austin is back in training i believe (but i think gab in no.1)

  27. TaiwanHC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 days ago

    I need one midfielder and one forward for a total of 15.5. My other midfielders are Sanchez, Hazard, Sane and Ward-Prowse, and my forwards are Kane and Gabbiadini.

    Any suggestions?

    1. Eric the King
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Tekkers and arnie

    2. Disco Stu
