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.

      Kane and Hazard are essentials. You can go without Costa imo!

      See how he plays tomorrow. I think it'd be a mistake though. Leicester have very little to play for and Vardy only scored today because Rondon played a shocking back-pass, it won't happen every week. Kane is chasing the title and the golden boot, I'd maybe advise against a knee-jerk on this occasion.

    Holgate got in the starting XI when I got Cedric in for Stephens at the last minute. Changed my starting keeper from Jaku to Pickford as well. Not a good start. ML lead cut down to 15 points.
    Need Kane(c) and Lukaku to deliver big tomorrow and Kun, Hazard to blank(I have Hazard but rival has captained him)

        What's the current feeling for GW36 WCers, 3-5-2?

        Thinking

        ____ (Pickford)
        Alonso ____ ____ (Stephens Holgate)
        Sanchez Hazard Alli Eriksen King
        Kane Costa/Jesus (Anichebe/Barnes)

        and fill the rest as best possible. Probably just ignore DGW36ers with exception of Sanchez(c). May even go double Chelsea at the back...powerful differential if they start closing out a few 1-0ers like Leicester last year.
