Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Coming down off the “excitement” of a double Gameweek, the latest programme of fixtures get off to a rather inauspicious start. The batch of four afternoon kick-offs appear very light on Fantasy interest.

Nonetheless, many will doubtless be monitoring Bournemouth’s visit to the Stadium of Light, with Josh King the undoubted star asset on show. With three goals in his last four Gameweeks and with 11 in his last 13 starts overall, the 6.1 midfielder will be heavily backed for another return against Sunderland. King was brought in by more than 100,000 FPL managers ahead of today’s encounter.

Similary, Southampton’s performance against Hull City will also be of keen interest, with Fantasy managers preparing Saints investment ahead of their double Gameweek 36. Striker Manolo Gabbiadini topped our captain poll and has been acquired by 160,000+ FPL managers heading into today’s transfer deadline.

Elsewhere, Stoke City take on West Ham at the bet365.com, while West Brom host Leicester City, with little on show to pique the interest from a Fantasy perspective.

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

    So what's the best way to play the Wildcard.

    Buy the players now and activate at the end of the week or Activate now and get in the players early.

    Anybody else having trouble pulling the trigger on selling Lukaku on wildcard to catch other players rises that might be in your final draft?

    I know he has no double, but if you look at his trend this season, he explodes about every 4 gameweeks with a massive haul.. His last haul was 3 gameweeks ago. I expect him to punish us badly in GW36 and/or 37
