The Big Numbers – Gameweek 35

Our post-Gameweek members article assessing some of the top performers arrives once again this evening.

With many Fantasy managers now looking to wield Wildcards, we cast an eye over in-form and in-demand attackers and also assess some of the stand-out assets in defence ahead of Friday evening’s deadline.

    My 5 defenders are:

    Valencia bellerin walker yoshida Robertson

    Will the first 3 play all games? What transfers would be best for remaining games? Ideas plz

    1. The Wizard of Ozil
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      All 3 might not play. Blind, Monreal, Vertonghen, Alonso, Cahill, Stephens all better options.

    2. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Extremely doubtful - agree with all of the Wizard of Ozil's suggestions.

    3. OzilFozzil
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Unlikely

      Valencia in for Alonso

      1. OzilFozzil
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        other way around... Alonso in for Valencia

  2. RyoKagawaTekkerCocuRaul!!
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Any opinion on this WC team?

    Cech Caballero
    Alonso Monreal Yoshida Stephens Holgate
    Sanchez Hazard Sané Sigurdson King
    Kane Jesus Anichebe

    0ITB BB GW37

    cheers

    1. SheBangsTheDrums
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good but I think you need one of Alli or Eriksen!

      Maybe downgrade Monrael to Gabriel and upgrade Siggy?

    2. anish10
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good, not sure on Siggy + Sane. Maybe downgrade one and upgrade one of them to Alli or Eriksen

      1. RyoKagawaTekkerCocuRaul!!
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers,

        I can do Monreal+Sané+Siggy to Gabriel+Pedro+Alli

        How does that sound?

    3. bombayblues
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      No Spurs? I am assuming they will go full throttle in trying to chase Chelsea down

    4. Nigawan
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Downgrade sigurdson to Tcarol and upgrade Anichebe to Gabi?

    5. RyoKagawaTekkerCocuRaul!!
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers all

    Team is as follows:

    Caballero (Pickford)
    Gabriel*. Stephens*. Yoshida* (Alonso. Benalouane)
    Sanchez*. Eriksen. Hazard. King (Sane)
    Jesus. Gabby*. Kane

    1. Play AOA and play Sane?
    2. Play Alonso ahead of a SOU defender?
    3. Any changes?

    1. Dyslexia Untied FC
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      1. What other chips do you have?
      2. Yes, yoshida is a bigger goal threat so I would drop stephens
      3. Team looks good!

      1. bombayblues
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        1. Got BB which is for GW 37. Apart from King all the others play twice.
        2. I have Yoshida slated in ahead of Stephens but would you play Alonso in place of Stephens? or go for Sane with the AOA?
        3. Thanks!

  4. anish10
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Which pair for the DGW

    A) Blind + Gabriel

    B) Holgate + Monrea

    1. Mr. Funny Name
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B for security of starts ie Monreal more nailed than Gabriel

      1. Eze Really?
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        If Arsenal drop more points I would bet Monreal gets a rest.

    2. SheBangsTheDrums
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. OzilFozzil

      B

  5. Mr. Funny Name
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    A) Pedro + Kompany
    or
    B) Eriksen + Holgate

    1. istanbul05
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A assuming you have other Spurs attacking cover..

      1. Mr. Funny Name
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Aye, have Alli and Kane

  6. istanbul05
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    On WC, which is better:

    A) Costa and Gabriel

    B) Jesus and Monreal

    Morning guys
    Would appreciate help with this:

    Jaku CECH
    Holgate BERTRAND Stones Evans Maguire
    Zaha Alli Son Sterling SANCHEZ (c)
    GABBI Costa Jesus

    a) Should I make a change or two and bench boost this week and TC next week
    b) Leave it and BB next week and TC 38
    c) Something else - any advice would be most appreciated.

    2.1 ITB and happy to take a few hits

    Thanks

    1. Dyslexia Untied FC
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Depends whether you think sanchez will get at least two this week? If so I would tc him, there are a lot of tasty fixtures in 38 but depends whether title is won etc so could still be a risk.. I would definitely BB in 37

    Lads, do you all keep the Southampton's assets? Such as JWP, Gabbi.

    1. Mr. Funny Name
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Think I'm just having Yoshida and Stephens, attacking wise they look poor atm

      1. Moose™
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah. Looking to dispose JWP and Gabbi for -8 here. And, I am feeling good about it too.

    2. Holmes

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Yep, Jesus will be straight forward move. Or you can do Costa

      A very rare sight, a non template team of yours. Best luck.

  11. TONFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Monreal and Blind...
    or
    Cahill and Yosh?

    Already have 1 CHE and 1 ARS defender in the team.

    Thanks!

    1. The Wizard of Ozil
      • 8 Years

      Despite Man utd defensive strengths they do have nasty fixtures. I'd go b.

    1. Holmes

    Casual ML rival has nearly caught me with this team,
    Boruc
    Williams McCauley Ward
    Hazard Eriksen King Zaha
    Aguero Costa Rashford
    Valdes Pieters DeRoon Stones

    My team
    Ddg
    Valencia Vertongen Kompany
    Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Sane
    Kane Benteke Rashford
    Pickford Zaha Stephens Britos

    Any advice as im only 10 points ahead now! Thinking Valencia + Benteke > Monreal + Gabbi?

    Just shows that team value, research and making lots of transfers counts for nothing.

    1. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Depends on what those transfers are....

      Are you both bench boosting in 37?

  17. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Who scores more points this week?

    A) Bailly (ars) + Zaha (mci) + Benteke (mci) + 8 points

    B) Stephens (liv & ARS) + Hazard (MID) + Jesus (CRY)

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I still reckon B, even with a hit. Certainly over the next 2/3 weeks B will do better.

      Everytime i have made a transfer like that the players i took out scored well, just like Pedro at the weekend!

    Morning guys. Thoughts about this slightly different wildcard with big three up front?

    Caballero, Pickford
    Maguire, Vertonghen, Alonso, Yoshida, Stephens
    Hazard, Alli, Sanchez, King, T.Carroll
    Kane, Jesus, Costa

    0.0 ITB

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Brilliant team, must have a great SV.
      Stephens or Maguire to any bournemouth or CPL defence? They have good SGW games.

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers Urchin. Can't unfortunately fit Bournemouth def in for Maguire as I have only max. 4.4 left for that place in defence.

    2. Karan14
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Best out of all wildcard teams I've seen this week!

    3. Trovsmash

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Cheers all. Could also go 3-5-2 with Anichebe which would mean wildcard mostly will come down to having one of these combinations.

      A) Pickford, Maguire, Vertonghen, T. Carroll and Costa
      B) Cech, Holgate, Koscielny, Eriksen and Anichebe
      C) Cech, Monreal, Vertonghen, Sane and Anichebe

  19. tibollom

    7 years, 1 month ago

    hello guys, any thoughts on my team below? did my WC last GW already, planning on doing BB in GW37.. would you TC any of the below or wait for GW38 perhaps?

    DDG
    Yoshida Gabriel Alonso Vert
    Sanchez King Eriksen Haz
    Gabbi Kane

    Pickford, tadic, anichebe, huth.

    1. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Sanchez TC in GW36 or 37
      He faces a depleted United defence @ home and soton team that is suffering some alleged internal troubles hence low on morale.
      Even in 37 he faces Stoke and Sunderland, the same two teams that Agiero played in DGW 27. Lots of goals expected.

      1. MrZ
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Will he play in those 4 fixtures?
        Afraid of fatigue or even injury.... Wenger may rest him or manage his minute to be fit in FA cup final

      2. tibollom
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers Urchin - i think with the team I have it's best to BB in 37 which means I will TC sanchez this GW i guess.. just not convinced on him scoring vs utd..

  20. Blue&White85
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What's the thoughts on Valencia for the next few weeks and in particular double week 37? Do you still reckon he'll get rotated given all the injuries or will Mourinho be forced to play him? Even when Bailly is back I can only see the defence below as a viable option, unless he plays Carrick there.

    Valencia Bailly Blind Darmian

    Just wondering whether I should ditch for another Chelsea defender.

    1. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Ashley Young can play there too?

      1. Blue&White85
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Good point, completely forgot about him. Thinking I might ditch Valencia as he has bad fixtures and isn't a stick on to play.

    2. MrZ
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Darmian can also play in RB. Will assess on this gw, might ditch him to cahill or vert

      Cheers all, on C just now, really reluctant to get rid of Alli or Eriksen - both my most consistent scorers - before WHU... tough call. Rival (5pts ahead) just has Eriksen, but reckon he'll jump on Kane too this week. His TV is dire so no chance he'll triple... #dilemma

      Gut feel is that either Kos or Cahill could go big next could of weeks...tough call

    0.0 ITB I will BB 37
    for XXX what would you think is better option?
    1. Sane Anichebe
    2. Albrighton Gabbiadini

    Or should I drop Sanchez and restructure the team?

    Nobody looking at Giroud for 37 double? Could be a great differential

    Sterling or Pedro for zaha -4?

    Rival has sane so want to avoid him

      Pedro is slightly more nailed than Sterling. keeping Zaha may pay off though
