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.
Please vote to stop me going completely crazy. Thanks.
A. (the Sanchez draft)
Pickford, Cech
Yosh, Stephens, Alonso, Holgate, Smith (bou)
Haz, Sanchez, King, Eriksen, Alli
Jesus, Kane, Gabb
B. (the no Sanchez draft)
Pickford, Cech
Yosh, Stephens, Alonso, Monreal, Kompany
Haz, Coutinho, King, Eriksen, Alli
Jesus, Kane, Gabb
(in team A I could swap Cech to Caballero & Holgate to Gabriel to give one extra DGW´er)
A but maybe drop one of Alli/Eriksen to Sane and then upgrade defence. I'd also do Cech > Willy
Thanks. There´s just that question mark over Gabriel game time. Also, on the choice of willy, aren´t Arsenals 37 games better chance of two CS than City´s?
I'd say it's pretty even fixture-wise for their DGWs in 37. City have better defensive form though. Willy is much better value than Cech. I wouldn't pay 5.3 for a keeper of a team struggling for clean sheets
Thanks. So maybe:
Pickford, Willy
Yosh, Stephens, Alonso, Vertonghen (or Monreal), Cook
Haz, Sanchez, King, Sane, Alli
Jesus, Kane, Gabb
?
If Vertonghen then no Arse defence at all. If Monreal then only two spurs)
A with the swap
a
which group is better? (worried about Gabriel being nailed)
A) Cech, Vertongen, Monreal, Sane
B) Caballero, Alonso, Gabriel, Eriksen
B
B
B but try to upgrade Gabriel maybe
thanks, gents.
when i look at them, A looks a bit better. -- Cech has an extra game, Monreal is nailed as oppossed to Gabriel. and I think Verongen and Sane could be a wash with Alonso and Eriksen. hate to lose those last 2, of course.
a) Koscielny Vertonghen Anichebe
b) Kingsley, Monreal, Gabbi
In a, I would bench Anichebe and just use him for the BB in gw37, and probably waste my AOA chip
In b, I would go AOA this week to include Gabbi together with my strong 5 man midfield. I would however play Alonso and Monreal, thereby benching both Kingsley, Stephens and Yoshida, i.e two DGW defenders. Can't really see who else to bench though. Any ideas? Both options leave me with 0.0 ITB
Pickford Caballero
Alonso *** *** Stephens Yoshida
Eriksen Sane Sanchez Hazard King
Jesus Kane ***
A and AOA in 38?
Of course also an alternative, but not sure I would want to play Anichebe away to chelsea

The good old days.
Never touching Gabriel again.
Only 155 that week 🙁
No Alli, Sakho? Surprised my GW rank was so high, thought I had a fairly template FFS team.
Had Sakho, think I had Lovren, Coutinho etc who were pretty rubbish missing a game.
Still moved from 65K to 28K.
🙁
I think FPL should keep alive the old data and stuff somewhere...
I think we should be thankful they still have a half decent server never mind keeping billions of records.
TC Kun - 78. Never to be forgotten 😎
Screenshot or it didn't happen.
Risers tonight? Kane and Jesus? On 100.8 and 100.5 atm...?
Sane too at 100.1. Ranocchia is close at 99.9
Will they rise at that tho?
Well Sane will as it stands and if everything goes as it should
FPL stats is a mess at mo. Unpredictable as it's all wildcards..kun was - 78 % 2 days ago
What do we think about Hazard?
Hopefully he wont rise, wanna sleep on it. Haha
Right then, TC'ing this week instead of BB'ing I've been swayed even with a bench of Pickford, JWP, Stephens, Holgate and the option to TC in 37. Here goes nothing Sanchez.
I think its the best choice. Waiting for gw37 to and making some changes then to bolster the bench is the best option.
Already benching JWP this week to play King. Do I really want to play Stephens over Daniel vs Stoke? Gabriel and Alonso other def
I've got them on my bench and really, really want to BB, but resisting. so no, I'd start the sgwers
I'd play Daniels
With a (probable) floor of 4 I'd play Stephens.
Defenders that don't keep clean sheets aren't floor of 2 though are they. 2 goals conceded is 1pt
same king is a must so benching jwp over yoshida because hes more nailed on i think but im worried if jwp goes mad. It depends how many soton cover you got?
Is there an actual possibility that we might get away with getting ake for the coming weeks?
When is Chelsea presser?
GW38 at best probably.
Nah. John Terry will get a game if turns out to be a celebration game...and I really can't see both of Ake and Terry starting under those circumstances...
Conte likes Ake and may want to freshen the defence up for the final.
How would you fix this bunch?
Caballero Pickford
Alonso Yoshida Daniels Gabriel Holgate
Sanchez Hazard Sane Alli King
Kane Jesus Gabbi
1 FT, 0.0 in bank
Cheers
Better than mine for sure... You might do Holgate to Stephens or upgrade Gabriel/get Spurs defender
Stephens is 4.2 now and would struggle to pay him.
Worried about Gabriel being benched?
In 37, can't do much about him in 36.
Save
Perhaps save, then go Gabbi > Anichebe and Gabriel > Cahill for GW37?
Something like that if I don't get a Chelsea attacker.
I would save and await the DGW
Yeah, likely plan.
Wouldn't do anything tbh. Not a fan of Caballero but with nothing ITB he's probably your best option.
Save FT in case of injuries or pre-announced rotations next week.
Save FT this week, since you already have Gabbi. 2FTs will be nice to mix things up if needs be ahead of BB.
Save?
Nothing you can do without hit. Both Gabis are not convincing.
A hit looks like it includes Anichebe, so not sure really.
Cheers all 🙂
Who are you benching from those front 7 ?
Good question, depends on Aguero.
save the transfer this gw and see how gabbi does. be prepared to do gabriel > cahill in 37 too then downgrade gabbi.
One question I wanted to ask is Jesus essential this week or can i ride the storm for gw36 to have 2 ft to sort it out?? I made the mistake of getting benteke for a one weeker and he messed me up so now stuck with him and dont have much in the bank. If i can wait to get jesus till after 36 would be perfect!! any reason why i should or shouldnt??
What team would you rather have?
A:
Cech Caballero
Alonso Monreal YOSHIDA ASMITH Holgate
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen SANE King
Kane Jesus ANICHEBE
B:
Cech Caballero
Alonso Monreal VERTONGHEN STEPHENS Holgate
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen NDIDI King
Kane Jesus GABBIADINI
A
A with Stephens

Cheers fellas.
Would someone trade down Monreal, Smith, Yoshida -> Gabriel, Vert, Stephens in A?
No
Which one:
a) Monreal + Daniels
b) Vertonghen + Gabriel
B but try to get Monreal
A

Just a ramble...
Chelsea play Watford on Mon 15 May in what may well (likely) be the game they need to win to be champions (extremely unlikely Costa and Hazard are rested for that). They then play Sunderland at home on the last day of the season. If the title isn't won by then then of course Costa and Hazard play...and if it is then who the hell is gonna tell Costa and Hazard they're not playing for that "celebration" game...
As far as I can see Costa and Hazard are must have's for GW37 and GW38...
I also think they will play.
I really can't see how, or why, they wouldn't.
FA Cup is the only thing so reduced minutes likely.
Mmmm...possibly.
It's a big thing celebrating a title in front of your home fans though...and something they both deserve, and will want...
Conte always wants the best from the team. Maybe there will be small changes to the lineup
I'm planning on Costa this week then switch to Jesus for 37 but if he's a chance to beat Lukaku for golden boot he'll play every game surely
I doubt he's really that bothered about the golden boot...but I do bet he'd have a big problem being left out of the team for that celebration just because Batushayi wants a game...
Costa is probably leaving in the summer though so does Conte really care if he throws a strop?
I think Conte will play the team throughout to keep everyone on it for the FA Cup final. Not like they've been plagued with injuries and need to worry about it. Sunderland game will be a training session with JT involved.
I think they will play all
If clinched, I see them playing partial game, and some coming off to crowd pleasing ovations....hazard, Cahill, costa.
Facially whats the most attractive part of a female or what do you look at?
For me its lips and smile. Gotta have nice lucious lips with a wide smile.
Is that before or after you blow the doll up?
Aaaammmm ... no
The boobs
Coutinho, Lukaku and De Gea to Sanchez, Jesus and Jaku for -8?
Leading ML by only 26 but rival has Sanchez and Jesus so makes sense right?
Yes.
If you have your TC chip still to play, what would you regret more?
A) Putting it on Sanchez and he blanked. (would feel stupid triple captaining him while he's being so disinterested, throwing tantrums, and Arsenal are so underwhelming)
B) Not putting it on Sanchez and he hauled. (would feel stupid triple captaining someone else when Sanchez was the obvious choice)
It's not worth playing BB in any other week than 37 for me so I feel I have little choice
Hazard vs. Middlesbrough? Form player, good fixture vs. out of form player with 1 tough fixture and 1 moderate one.
I don't think I'll even C Hazard 37
Oh you mean this week. Still no to Hazard
a) Pickford Monreal
b) Cech Gabriel
A
A
Any reason not to do Benteke ➡ Jesus right now?
Willy
Alonso Gabriel* Stephens*
Hazard Sanchez Alli King
Kane Benteke Gabbiadini
(Pickford, Sane Daniels Holgate)
1FT 1.9ITB
Do it
Done. Thanks.
Sanchez rising tonight?
No
Why is everyone asking this? He isn't.
Jesus is 😉
a) Monreal Albrighton Gabbiadini (3-4-3)
b) Gabriel Sané Anichebe (3-5-2)
B
Yet another RMT
Cech Caballero
Alonso Kompany Yoshida Stephens Holgate
Sanchez Hazard Alli Eriksen King
Kane Jesus Anichebe
Main questions:
Swap out Kompany for Monreal?
Bring in Costa somehow (most likely for Jesus)?
Is triple Spurs attack too much?
Yes
Not for me
Not for me
Monreal's nearly guaranteed 4 points is really tempting me. He's also playing as a wingback correct?
1) Yes.
The second and third questions are linked in my opinion. Yes, it would be worth bringing in Costa, but not for Jesus. Downgrade one of the Spurs mids and get Costa for Anichebe. But triple Spurs attack isn't too much, so depends what you prefer and what you feel makes sense for your team overall.
Kompany > Monreal/Kos
Is sterling a realistic differential to sane if chasing?
If City's last DGW was anything to go by, City mids are explosive, but quite unreliable due to the rotation.
I think I need to make a decision on Costa or Jesus today. Leaning Costa for this week
Both 😎
I have Kane and Gabbi
Went Jesus - explosive
Just saw that TM plagiarized my WC. Yoshida in there and the extra FT is fooling no one.
Bench in right order?
Willy
Alonso Gabriel* Stephens*
Hazard Sanchez* Alli King
Kane Benteke Gabbiadini*
(Pickford, Sane Daniels Holgate)
0FT 0.4ITB
Jesus in place of Benteke.
You have Benteke over my Jesus so yours is better 🙂
Just did Benteke ➡ Jesus, so there goes my differential. 🙁
It's passable for no WC. I'd change about 5 players if I had another chance.
Bah, here I was trying to not bench Sane and Daniels and you shoot my WC confidence down. Hits next week it is then.
I am putting Sane on and benching Gabbi for his double right now. Don't know if it's the right call though.
Hm. Hadn't considered that. Would be pretty crazy benching a dgw forward. Then, again only a 3 day difference in between games.
Caballero Pickford
Monreal Vertonghen Yoshida Stephens Alonso
Sanchez Hazard Alli Redmond King
Kane Jesus Anichebe
After a lot of headache I did it... WC Active and 0.5 ITB
Thoughts?
Redmond has fallen out with Puel apparently, avoid.
Who'd you get for that price? 6.4 max
Try and get Pedro.
Does that have any bearing on Gabbi's minutes?
Would appreciate some advice here, which is better?
A: Alonso + Gabriel
B: Verthongen + Monreal
Alonso surely is great for the upcoming fixtures, but I fear some Gabriel rotation
Thanks
Avoiding Gabriel personally
Thanks. May do that myself, but Alonso could punish me big-time
B but Alonso is essential
Cheers.. maybe downgrade Cech instead of Alonso?
Yes, get Caballero
Good morning 🙂
A. Caballero -- Cahill Vertonghen -- Eriksen Sané (0.1 ITB)
B. Caballero -- Koschielny Vertonghen -- Alli Sané (0.2)
C. Cech -- Koschielny Yoshida -- Alli Eriksen (0.0)
____ (Pickford)
Alonso ____ ____ (Stephens Holgate)
Sanchez Hazard ____ ____ King
Kane Jesus (Anichebe)
BB37. Thoughts very much appreciated -- Cheers.
B
A
A (based on the assumption that Eriksen and Alli will more or less score about the same, and that Cahill outscores Koscielny)
Can I get some help here please. Any changes?
Cech - Willy
Azpi - Blind - Holgate - Yoshida - Clichy
Haz - Cout - KDB - King - Dier
Kane - Gabbi - Rashford
1FT and 2.2ITB
Cout out???
Cout might be ok if you still thinks he is a diff without the double could consider keeping. If I had my WC again probably would not go for Gabbi but not a lot of other options at the price.
KDB Costa a lot for what he has been delivering and has even been rotated. Following the herd and Rasford to Sane with a KDB downgrade?
Sorry I meant Rahford to Jesus
Hmmm. Yeh I like KDB + Rash - Costa + Jesus.. however I think Rashford is going to get a lot of minutes, and he is my Man U "cover"..
KDB is also a great differential.
GL a bit of a diff could be good. It's turning very template round these parts.
sanchez in for coutinho for his 4 matches in 2 weeks.
Need help about this one
A) Gabbi Gabriel and bench Sane
B) Cahill Sane and bench Anichebe
Cheers

DDG at Arsenal or Pickford at Hull?
Get Caballero in doubt
Do I need to ask
A) DDG
B) Pickford?
(there is no C)
A, but it was an advice 🙂
Haha, Cheers. WC'd last GW so keepers are set for now
Pickford won't keep a CS away, DDG may have another performance as vs City
a) Vertonghen + Pedro
b) Daniels + Sané
