Dugout Discussion – Crystal Palace vs Burnley

With just two goals from Saturday’s action so far, we now turn to the tea-time kick-off at Selhurst Park to provide some much-needed entertainment and Fantasy returns.

Crystal Palace host Burnley having enjoyed an influx of investment on the back of their double Gameweek 34, ensuring that many will have interest in this evening’s encounter.

Christian Benteke – one of the few success stories with a 14-point return – heads into the match backed by 608,000+ FPL managers, with 172,000 opting to hand him the captaincy ahead of the Clarets clash – that includes 21 of the top 100 managers.

In contrast, Wilfried Zaha owes his recent investors. He was brought in by 144,000+ ahead of Gameweek 34 only to return just three points. More than 46,000 have shipped him out ahead of today’s clash.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Anybody else going back and forth between trying to catch rises tonight and getting rid of you players like Cout and Lukaku to catch the rise on wildcard in case you want them in your final draft, vs waiting to see how the players you're about to drop fair later in the gameweek? So stressful.

      Kept Lukaku on my WC at the moment - got too much invested in him.

        Exactly, but he ties up the spot i'd need to catch Jesus' rise tonight. Difficult. I may keep Lukaku till the end anyway.

        It's not so much to profit, as it is that once they go up, you're paying a higher price to wait.

        Unless you've settled in on a final draft now, you should get them in now at the lowest price... but that means making a final decision on cutting your players you've built alot of equity in.
