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.

    A) Jones >> VVD (Roll FT)

    B) Jones + Pogba >> Robertson + Mahrez

    C) Jones / Azpil / Pogba >> VVD / Evans / Mahrez -4

    D) Kun / Pogba / Masuaku >> Firmino / Mahrez / VVD -4

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

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

        I THOUGHT kane might do better

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years

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

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      do non united fans even watch their games anymore? honestly can't recall the last united game i watched. usually just do some other stuff whenever theyre on

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

        I like to watch hoping they lose

        1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
          • 14 Years

          welcome to my world 😀

      2. Nascimento
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        The Utd fans don't watch them either.

    2. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I've got 3 and one of them is my captain 😆

  14. Fantasyfootballer
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I have this defence currently

    (A) Ota (B) Alonso (C) Jones (D) Ogbonna (E) Kiko

    2FT and think I need to swap to liverpool/spurs defs.

    Which 2 should go?

    1. Boomerang V
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      anyone but Kiko

    2. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A and c

  15. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pope
    Alonso Vertongen Otamendi
    Salah(V) Sterling Richarlison Shaqiri
    Kane(C) Firmino Wilson
    Elliot Bauer Kenny RLC
    0.2m itb, no ft. GTG?

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

    Arsenal should just swap managers with this Svedish team.

  17. Red Rock
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What's happening with Jones?

    Is Otamendi still the priority to get rid over Jones?

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

    Out : Otamendi, Hazard, Sterling, Quaner
    In: Naughton(or any other cheap def), Mahrez, Son, Firmino
    Is this for -12 very crazy?

    I am 35 pts behind my ML leader, he has a Free Hit and a Wildcard, I only have a TC, feel like I need to start taking the risk. He only has Firmino out of my new picks.

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

      You're making your team worse! 35 points is NOTHING.

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

        Do I just stick with this then?

        Pope
        Otamendi, Daniels, VVD, Duffy
        Hazard, Sterling, Salah(C), Shaqiri, Walcott
        Kane
        Adrian, Masuaku, Quaner, McBurnie

      Ridiculous

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

      So your 35 behind and you aim to come back by making yourself 47 behind. Rethink it. That's not the strategy for catching up

  19. LordEllison
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pickford
    Azpi Otamendi Jones Mee
    Salah(c) Sterling Hazard Shaqiri

  20. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    To Kun or not to Kun, that is the question

    1. n-doggg
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Not now. I am transferring out this week. Incoming blank and Jesus will reduce his minutes severely

  21. Bad Butcher
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Maybe someone will tell me something (2 FT)

    A) Kun Alonso - Kane VVD
    B) Ster Ota - Mahrez VVD
    C) your idea

    De Gea
    Ota Alonso Mee
    Sterling Shaqiri Walcott Salah (C)
    Kun Firm Wilson

    Bench: Richarlison Naughton Christensen

    2FT

    1. Boomerang V

      C

      1. Boomerang V
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        can you afford Kun Ota to Kane VVD

        1. Bad Butcher
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          No because 0,1 mln. Only Alonso

  22. Baz
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    To fund Firmino for Calvert-Lewin:

    A) Otamendi / Son --> VVD / Mili 

    B) Otamendi / Alonso --> Robertson / Hegazi

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A

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

      I'd go B, as Son doesn't have a blank

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

        He will though most likely!

  23. Syd.

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      the reverse of their ucl knock outs

      get the job pretty much done in the first leg

      give the opponents hope with some early goals but 1st leg lead just about being enough

  24. Lignja
