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.

        Defence could work out for you, but personally I'm planning a premium lineup at the back. Attacking threat could help your week explode

          Thanks, I've lost a bunch of value by selling McAuley, Siggy and Lukaku so my TV seems to be really restricting me. Where you are you sacrificing to fund the premium defence?

        Not on wildcard myself, but going Jesus instead of Costa and Eriksen instead of King.

        Maybe only need 1 Sot defender?

            Yes - at that price point, hard to beat.

            If you did ever want to gamble on Jesus over Costa, you would be looking at a premium defender though.

        So that Afobe injury has messed up my transfer plans for next week. Was planning;

        Aguero - Afobe
        Zaha - Sanchez
        Stones/Gibson - Monreal

        Which striker should I bring in now? Will have £6.2m/£6.5m ITB depending on which defender I ship.

          Take out Gibson and get Gabbi? Could still do alright despite today's performance, likely just as well if not better than Afobe would have done at least.

        Happy with that dire Gabbi performance... now he'll quietly sneak under the radar 😉

          I doubt it. He probably will be one of the most transferred in players because of the double double.

        Right then. Looking at pulling the trigger on this tonight because I can't afford any rises. I don't have a WC left, and this is for both 36 and 37, so I'll have 2FT to sort anything out for 38:

        Gibson, Zaha, Coutinho, Lukaku -> Holgate, Sanchez, Sane, Costa (-12)

        Team will be:
        DDG Pickford
        Holgate, Jagielka, PVA, Yoshi, Stephens
        Sanchez, Sane, Hazard, Alli, King
        Kane, Gabbi, Costa

        Yay or Neigh?

            I have Lukaku and haven't decided if I keep or ditch.

            I am thinking Kane Costa Jesus. Vardy and Lukaku also contenders

          Looks good

          Cahill I personally don't like cos Chelsea are leaky. My opinion tho.

          Maybe swap for an arsenal defender like Monreal?

          Benalouane might not play if Morgan comes back, so if you're okay with that the looks good. Maybe Jaku over Pickford? Could easily outscore even with a single GW
