With just four fixtures confirmed for Gameweek 31 so far, Fantasy Premier League (FPL) options for this particular weekend appear thin on the ground.

Restricted to just three players from any one side, managers find themselves exploring hitherto uncharted waters in the hopes of fleshing out a starting lineup capable of returning an adequate points haul.

Though a number of us may choose to preserve our Free Hit Chips for Gameweek 35 instead – content to roll out just seven or eight players in Gameweek 31 – others may view this Gameweek as an ideal opportunity to deploy the Free Hit now in order to gain ground on the pack.

With this in mind, this Technical Area will be looking beyond the obvious candidates for filling out our Gameweek 31 squads and pinpointing some high-upside players capable of big returns.

      Eriksen

    3. KLOPPTOMANIA
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Depends how gw31 is looking for you given Mahrez has a blank and Eriksen not

      1. The Left Duke #3
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        That's only if Rochdale bt Spurs tho right?

    GW28 Transfer:

    A) Jones, Otamendi,KDB,Depoitre > Francis,Dawson,Mane,Firmino -8
    B) Jones > Schindler
    C) Jones, Otamendi, KDB, Depoitre > VVD,Hegazi,Siggy,Firmino -8

      LOL

      1. @FPL_liverbird (liverpoolfa…

        what?

        1. Naboo
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Think you're blinded by the blank. Why do you want WBA defenders?!

          1. Naboo
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            FOR A -8 HIT

  6. zotter
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What’s best strategy for someone without FH. But all other chips

    Thinking get nine out for 31
    Wildcard 32. Load up on 34 doubles. Bench boost 34
    Pray in 35. But make sure have city arsenal etc. Who have double 34

    Take hits to get doublers 37 and TC 37

    35 could be brutal

  7. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    WHEN WILL THE KIKO HYPE DIE DOWN

    1. Theres mo limit
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      2024

    2. pol
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      NEVER

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

      It’s not hype, he’s the real deal mate

    4. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      People really planning on kiko...wtf

      He plays away to pool in 31. Confused

      1. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        The hone fixtures leading up to it and after are good though

    5. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      When people bench a premium defender for him and Kiko concedes (as expected)

  8. zotter
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Repost. Ayew to Niasse?

    1. Naboo
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    2. Bruno Bruno!!
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Only worry is if everton are safe in PL by the Tosun plays, hold out if you can.

  9. Rainer

  10. HD7

    GW 28 Team - your thoughts on Captain?

    De Gea
    Ota Vert Alonso
    Sterling Shaq Salah Deloufeu
    Kane(C) Aguero Wilson

    Subs: Elliot, Ogbona, Obiang, Mbemba

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Salah

  11. Ramboros
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Schindler or Zanka. Which do you prefer?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Zanka cos 0.1 cheaper

  12. HD7
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    The leader in my league leads me with 100 pts but is without the FH chip. Therefore I need to maximize this chip as much as I can...

    So far my plan is to have 8 players for GW31
    WC in GW32 (having in mind 34 and 37)
    Bench boost in GW34
    FH in GW35
    TC in 37

    Do you think this is a good plan? Generally is 35 giving us better chances of points with the Free hit Chip?
    Thanks.

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yep

  13. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    KIKO looking like dropping to 4.2m today or tomorrow, what a bargain

    1. Theres mo limit
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      why have you not already got him?

      1. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        no

  14. Naboo
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Son > Mahrez worth a hit?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Not for a hit

      1. Naboo
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I'm so undecided on this one. If I don't do it this week I definitely won't next with HUD and imminent blank

    2. Theres mo limit
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      impossible to say

    3. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No way for me

  15. Redcat1
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Who to take out for VVD ?

    Otamendi, Mustafi or Jones ?

    1. Bruno Bruno!!
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      all the hype is around kiko why not get him in

    2. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mustafi

    3. Sedemuda
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm doing Jones; fixtures, injury, Moaniho's bad attitude etc.
      He's done me proud this season, might get him back on WC.

  16. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Them home fixtures for the Kikmiester look yummy, hes a shoe in if he drops tonight or tomorrow he goes straight into my team

    1. The UnderAcheivers
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Stop pushing the kiko agenda. Terrible player to own

      1. badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sounds like you've brought him in already and trying to put others off the scent! 😉

        1. The UnderAcheivers
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          haha you could say I have spoken from experience. I would say hes okay for bench fodder maybe but even then he gets injured so easily and watford can barely keep a CS so i dont see much point unless you are desperately trying to free up some funds

  17. Legohair
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Lingard to Deulofeu for a hit?so also i can have another player to GW 31(i have currently just 3)i do have FH.but is 6-7 players enough for GW31?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would do that transfer

  18. The UnderAcheivers
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen or Mahrez over the next few fixtures? Already have Kane & Vardy. Any opinoins would be appreciated, cheers

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I prefer Eriksen but no real reason except spurs score more goals and I expect him to be involved

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Eriksen

    3. The UnderAcheivers
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      cheers fellahs

  19. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hoot hoot.

    Kiko is back.

    1. Delph & Safety
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      YEESSSS

      I must be the only one who held on to him!

  20. Man Chest Hair United
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is Sanchez and Quaner out for
    Kane and 4.5 worth a hit?

    Best mis for 4.5?

    Free hitting in 31

    1. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kane and McArthur in for a hit. Do it. GW 31 or Mc as well

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks trying to avoid players that play 31 as I’m free hitting

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Why avoiding? Discounting gw31 from your thinking would make sense. Ignoring players entirely? Why?

  21. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Zeegelaar is still better

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      wow what a funny guy I am - is anyone comparable to kiko??

  22. The Left Duke #3
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hey lads, am getting rid of both Lingard and B.Silva but may only do one this week. Who should I prioritise getting rid of first?

    A) Lingard
    B) B.Silva

    And who should I prioritise getting in
    1) Shaqiri
    2) Delafeou
    3) Milivojevic

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Lingard first and probably 2 based on fixtures

      1. The Left Duke #3
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Ya that's what I'm thinking. Two nice home fixtures for Del

  23. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Was worried about a 50pt ML deficit.

    Then along comes Kiko.

    Season changer.

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Triple captain locked in for Kiko this week then to overhaul the deficit? You'd be a fool not to when he's the best pick on the block 😛

  24. badgerboy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Team check lads.

    Kiko, Kiko
    Kiko, Kiko, Kiko
    Loftus-Cheek(c), Kiko, Kiko, Kiko
    Kiko, Kiko, Kiko

    Kiko, Kiko, Kiko, Kiko(vc)

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Too many Loftus-Cheeks in there, he's way too expensive compared to that admirable bargain option that goes by the name of Kiko. what a guy though

      1. badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Can't have them all. 🙂

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

      Lovely

    3. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Make sure you bench boost

  25. LeKing083
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Out : Hazard, Quaner
    In : Firmino, Deulofeu
    For -4?

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good I think

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Love it. Do it

  26. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Wheres ma scoutcast?

    1. In ya sporran ... 😉

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Its a long one tonight

        1. 😆 The scout cast, I hope? 😀

          1. The Left Duke #3
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Just go to YouTube, it's out already

  27. TLF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling to Mane bonkers ?

    1. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I personally think bringing in Mane is bonkers on its own so it's a no for me

  28. Delph & Safety
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pickford Elliot
    Alonso Maguire Schindler Hegazi Kiko
    Salah KDB Sterling Shaqiri Milli
    Kane Vardy DCL

    0.5 ITB and 2FTs
    rank - 500k

    DCL a priority?
    Alonso to VVD to afford DCL upgrade to Wilson?
    Going for Jay Rodriguez instead too silly?
    Double City too much? KDB to eriksen/Mane

    So much potential transfers to make, and I really would appreciate any advice or tips.

    1. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Alonso and DCL to VVD and Wilson looks a no brainer with both playing GW 31

      1. Delph & Safety
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, shame about Alonso though because he’s served me so well.

      2. Legomané
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Wilson has de Foe on the horizon

        1. Delph & Safety
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          How close? Wilson always screws me over

          1. Legomané
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Could be in the squad this w/e apparently.

    2. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      showing off your team with Kiko in there!

      Would probably ship KDB out to fund a move for DCL to Firmino

      1. @FPL_liverbird (liverpoolfa…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Would do KDB out next week not this week though! Its the reason Im probably holding 1ft from this week so that I can do more next week. Mane got to be on your radar as a differential!

      2. Delph & Safety
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Wow not sure if I could be that brave!

  29. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    we need a HOT TOPIC AT BARE MINIMUM ON THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND THAT IS KIKO

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      a hot topic is just humiliating - give him the website

      1. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        That's why I said bare minimum 🙂

        1. the snazzy viking
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I meant the bare minimum too 😀

  30. Bruno Bruno!!

      Give it a rest, these Kiko posts are so funny I keep pissing myself 🙄
