Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Manchester City vs Leicester City

Saturday hands us five more Gameweek 37 fixtures, with Man City welcoming Leicester to the Etihad in the lunchtime kick-off.

The most transferred in (217,000+) player for a pair of home clashes with the Foxes and West Brom, Gabriel Jesus retains his starting berth in an unchanged lineup as the fit-again Sergio Aguero warms the bench.

Meanwhile, Kevin De Bruyne’s 17-point haul at home to Palace last time out has also turned a few heads – the Belgian is the top target in midfield, with over 128,000 snapping up his services.

Jamie Vardy rolls up as the visitors’ form player. Since Craig Shakespeare took the helm, the Foxes frontman has racked up seven goals and five assists in ten outings – only 102,000 FPL managers have handed him the armband, with a home clash against Tottenham’s resilient rearguard also on his schedule next Thursday evening.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      It's amazing how when you mix letters up or put thenm in a different order it can mean a different thing.

    Stephens fail

  3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

    I thought AOA was the only useless chip
    Add BB to that list(for me alteast)

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Same. 3 failed starts and 1 hooked after 45 minutes.

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

        Didn't work for me last season, this season seems to be no exception.

        Clearly only TC is worth a crap.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Agreed. Those chips just add a huge luck factor to the game.

          1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
            • 7 Years

            Yeah

      Yeah Holgate ruined my day yesterday and now this

    3. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      hah ... BB is worth a good 10+ extra points ... AOA often leads to about -10 to -20 points
      Check your averages for the different formats at https://anewpla.net/fpl/report/

      These are my figures - but I've checked out loads of others
      3-4-3 (18 times - average 63.1 points)
      3-5-2 (10 times - average 62.8 points)
      4-3-3 (5 times - average 68.6 points)
      5-5-3 (1 times - average 75 points)
      4-4-2 (1 times - average 63 points)
      2-5-3 (1 times - average 49 points)

    Got JWP instead of Albrighton on my WC because of security of starts. JWP hasn't started 2 of the last 3.

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Albrighton was always more secure than JWP though

      1. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Really? I didn't think so 🙁

    Next season WC GW2 and BB GW3. Who is with me?

    1. Sebbo29
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      O/

      With Capoue at the beginning I left so many pts on bench

    2. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      This lark happened last season for those saving their chips for GW37. It always does.

      You have to get fairly lucky to get through it without major disappointments.

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

        Should have learned. Remember how much rotation there was for DGW 34 last season, but still came up big for those who used TC. Harder to predict bench boost with rotation smh

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

          ^ post fail. Sorry guys

    3. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Next season ... I've used by first wc in GW2 virtually every season!

      BB this week never made sense to me ... TC options and the BB need to have bench players this week

  7. Donnie Brasco´s

    Gabiadini!
    What a troll!?!?!

  8. Jafooli
    • 12 Years

    So angry with JWP & Gabbishyte no shows.....

  9. Cok3y5murf
    • 7 Years

    Sold Gabriel for Stephens (-4) 😀

  10. The Big Fella
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Stephens on the bench, Holgate hauled off at 45 mins, Capoue my 5th midfielder....... BB fail

    1. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Gabbi not playing either!!!

  11. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Anichebe will outscore Gabbi in the end

    *vomits everywhere*

  12. UptheBlues
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    who drew the foul for leicester's penalty?

    And is stephens not starting?!

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez

    2. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Clichy

      He's on the bench

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez.

      Not starting

  13. tm245

    7 years, 1 month ago

    To be fair KDB looked immense in those first 30 minutes. After the goals they just shifted him deeper -- those of us who are nonowners were lucky in that first half.

    1. Old Man
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I think he's had rather a poor season really - he being a "super star"

      1. tm245
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Not consistent to be sure, but I can't call it a poor season considering his passing at times has been gamechanging.

  14. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    People that surprised that Gabbiadini has been dropped? Really?

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      yep.. Long is never an upgrade though

    2. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      To be fair I think his team mates created about 1 opportunity over the course of 3 games for him.

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not at all. Thought he would have made the bench at least though haha

  15. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Stephens not starting is justice for those with a decent TV

  16. drughi
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Looking to be a really weak BB. Looked at my ml rivals team before the games and thought 35 points would be fairly easy to gain this week alone. Not so much now

  17. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    I remember guys bragging yesterday that they had like 30 more players to go, well almost a third of those consisted of gabbi, Stephens, cedric

  18. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Oh the scenes when Holding isn't starting or in the squad even.

    1. HazardAGuess
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I fully expect it now.

  19. LeicesterA
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Any prizes for guessing which sounthampton players I have in my BB Team? Effectively just rendered my BB void in one hit!

  20. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    What are people's thoughts on Jesus as a player?

    I've not seen a lot of him but the games I have seen he doesn't exactly look like the next Messi (or even Aguero!).

    Jesus(C) here by the way

    1. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      obviously a good player but it looks boys vs men when it comes to him and defenders

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah good, just doesn't look great! Young obviously
