The curtain falls on Gameweek 35 with a Vicarage Road meeting between Watford and Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp’s charges arrive bidding to cement their standing in the top four, exploiting Sunday’s results which saw their major challengers drop points.

From a Fantasy perspective, Liverpool’s twin Brazilians will garner the most interest.

Both Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino head into this encounter having prospered against the Hornets in the reverse fixture. Coutinho produced a goal and an assist for 11 points, while his compatriot went fared even better, recording two assists and a goal to total 15 points – his best tally of the campaign.

Both have the backing of new owners tonight, with Coutinho the more popular, finding his way into 50,000+ squads ahead of Gameweek 35, compared with Firmino’s 23,000+. The former is also favoured for the armband, with more than 122,000 (2.7%) trusting Coutinho.

But Liverpool are likely to face some resistance from the home side. Walter Mazzarri’s Watford reached the 40 point “safety” mark with six matches to spare and have earned victories with clean sheets in three of their last five Gameweek outings.

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

      ... If it makes you feel better, he started and then came off.

      It gets worse, he ain't coming on 😉

    Anyone able to take their eyes away from the exciting game for 10 seconds? 🙂

    Caballero, ***
    Alonso, Blind, Monreal, Stephens, ***
    Sanchez, Hazard, Alli, Hazard, ***
    Kane, Jesus, Gabbiadini

    a) Pickford, Holgate, Sane
    b) de Gea, Verthongen, Capoue

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Any team with two hazards gets my vote haha!
      looks good though, would get rid of blind.

      1. FPLtfs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Ah, midfield is Sanchez, Hazard, Alli, King! Thanks, a) or b) though?

    2. FPLtfs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      The second Hazard is not Thorgan, but supposed to be Josh King 🙂

    3. SUPERMAN
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Got to be B

    4. FP El Wonky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      A is the more template I think.
      I like B even with capoue
      De Gea and Vert should make up for it.
      Especially nice to BB in 37

    5. ScottieDog
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Hazards have just been risk assessed, nothing to add.

  4. sergioaguero67
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Choose one to pick in my squad from each.

    Sanchez or Özil

    Cedric or Gabriel (ars)

    Please help.

    1. nkhoughton
      • 10 Years

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Off target.

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        So wise

  6. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    if you had Gabbiadini, would you keep, or just do a straight swap for jesus anyway?

    Struggling with this one.

    1. A.T
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      I'd wait until after this gw

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        cool, yeah seems the logical choice doesn't it 🙂

    Come on Bobby, save my GW.

  8. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Whilst you are all a bit bored,

    Willy Cech
    Cahill Vert Stephens Yoshi Holgate
    Sanchez Hazard Alli King Albrighton
    Jesus Kane Gabbi

    Marks out of 10?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      7

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        feedback? too much Saints?

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Nothing wrong with it. I've gone for 3 Saints too. It's almost the same as my WC team. Well, I guess it's almost the same as most. It's pretty template.

          1. how now brown cow
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 11 months ago

            True. Not sold on Gabbi but scared of not having Haz & SAnchez.

    2. MidTableFantasy
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      What options do you have if you downgrade Willy or Cech to someone like Boruc and upgrade Albrighton?

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        It does seem a bit much in goal, but with BB 37 thought it might work better than non-nailed defenders.

  9. Robson-Canoe
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Current WC Team (pretty standard)
    Caballero (Pickford)
    Cahill Yoshida Gabriel (Stephens Holgate)
    Sanchez Hazard Alli King (Sané)
    Kane Jesus Gabbiadini

    Now to my question: is it worth to downgrade either Sané or Gabbiadini to upgrade defence (f.ex. Alonso, Vert or Kosc)?
    Feels like a bit of a waste to have both and play Sané only for BB37.

    1. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      great team and superb team value!

  10. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Repost.

    Tadic, JWP, or Redmond. Can afford any of em.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Price order.

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Can't wait to own Tadic. He never disappoints

  11. Nolberto Solano
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Best under 7 million midfielder for rest of season (not inc. King)?

    1. BALOOO
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      another King ;]

      1. Nolberto Solano
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Don't we all wish for that!

    2. Darklord_bg

      Pedro

  12. BALOOO
    • 9 Years

  14. Fpl Richie

    Just for your amusement. My ft was Siggy to Coutinho this week.

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Been there 🙁

  15. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Lucas yellow for diving

  16. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Lucas is no Rashford.

  17. Alnair
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Wiljnaldum, with do you actually bring to the team?

  18. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Who scores more over 2 gwks:
    A) Sane (cry, lei, wba)
    B) King (stk, bur)

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      It's close but Sane

  19. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Klopp laughing at diving? :Roll:

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      He just laughs at Lucas no matter what he does 😆

  20. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    So that's who taught Rashford and Sané how to dive

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Maybe Ashley Young

    2. RED PILL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Rashford and Sane cheated to win penalties.
      Kelly in the Palace game kicked Coutinho in his achilles he stayed on his feet and got f-all for doing so.
      Cheating is the way to go. If you dont go down, ref's wont give you anything.

  23. Red Star Toro

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Came off with an injury.

  24. Tim Canterbury
    • 14 Years

    Why did Gabriel only play 3/4 of spurs game

  25. Syd.
    • 16 Years

  26. BALOOO
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone here started last season with Mahrez and Vardy? Damn they were like 6mil 🙂

    1. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Kane was 5m at one stage. If only...

  27. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    South Americans always diving, no place for it

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      There is clearly a place for it.
      It's South America apparently. 🙂

  28. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Probably need someone to teach Firm how to throw

  29. sergioaguero67
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    How important is it to have all 3 from the Spurs trio - Kane, Alli, Eriksen?

    I am thinking of ditching one of them and going for Vertonghen because clean sheets WILL come their way due to the easy fixtures. But which one should I drop?

    Please help.

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Probably a good idea to have all three. Only utd game will be a challenge.

      If you need to lose one, Eriksen it is.

  30. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    What a goal
