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.

    It seems the majority are going with VVD as their preferred Liverpool defender.

    Would Gomez or Robertson not be better options?

    Both have more attacking returns and are cheaper

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

      I have Gomez currently and am looking to upgrade to VVD due to TAA rotation

      1. agueroooooney
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Is Robertson not an option also?

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

      Vvd for the baps and goal threat. Robbo has Moreno as a possible threat.

  2. Hardly Athletic
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Bring in Vardy or Mahrez?

    1. @NF_Janner
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez!

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years

      Vardy

  16. A.T
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jones owners, are you keeping or selling? I bought him for 5.0 so I’ve got a fair bit tied up there.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sold

      1. A.T
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I’m not sure what comes after 31. Do Utd have 2 doubles?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Very likely.

          1. A.T
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Should I sell him then do you think?

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              Dropping soon and will keep dropping until you WC.

              1. A.T
                • 15 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

                Thanks tm.

        2. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Most likely in 35. Have you spunked your WC?

          1. Epic Fail
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Blank in 35 I mean

          2. A.T
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            No I’ve got it but I haven’t looked into to everything yet so I don’t know what the crack is. I’ve lost interest basically but I still want to try and finish as best as possible. No idea who I’m suppos3d to be keeping or selling tbh 😀

            1. Epic Fail
              • 15 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              As TM says, Now's the time to get rid. Especially as you've got a WC. You can bring him back in later on when the fixtures fall in his favour and if he's starting.

              1. A.T
                • 15 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Hmm tougher with that, I got him for 5.3m and selling. I would wait on presser and see how long he's out for. Longer than 2 weeks then get rid I think. also depends on your back up defender,

      1. A.T
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Ok thanks for that.

    My next week's transfer was going to be an Arsenal defender. Not so sure now.

    1. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      These are all reserves bar Bellerin. They function awfully as a unit though.

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

    Had a dream that mhki had a good game week. To groggy to remember the finer details. Get him in while you can bois

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

      (definitely Prophetic)

    2. LǝgleSs e|even

  29. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Chambers embarrassed himself twice and the English commentator is blaming it on Kolasinac

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Racist. It’s because he’s stupid, not English

  30. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Alonso+ aguero + lingard
    To
    VVD + Kane + Stanislas (-4)?
