Our usual post-match delve into the Gameweek data arrives this evening as we check in with some of the standout players from the previous round of fixtures.

Gameweek 31 remains a factor in our selection, with Everton and Bournemouth midfielders catching the eye.

Watford’s defence under Javi Gracia is also analysed, while Brighton’s playmaker and Leicester’s attack-minded centre-half more than merit their place under the spotlight.

    Which goalkeeper is the best for gw 31 Begovic could get a clean sheet against falling wba

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

      He could

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

      I'm tempted by Butland. Not sure if he'll make many saves with Everton being the opponents, though.

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

        Correct, Everton are passive in away matches.

    3. Epic Fail

      Karius.

    What a shame a player of Bale's quality is only being used as a sub.

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

      TBF he has been crap of late

    2. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He doesn't seem to mind

    3. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He probably has a few million reasons not to be too unhappy about it.

    4. Unwanted at Real. Reckon Jose will negotiate down to a £200m bid now.

  3. pjanns

    who to play this GW?

      Wait until the games have finished innit.

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

        That would be the sensible thing to do

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years

          Won't happen then?

    Areola made a tit of himself there

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years

      Pity he didn’t have a twin

  7. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Who to play this week?

    A. Adrian (BUR)
    B. Ryan (eve)

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

      I have the same keepers. I'm goin Adrian. It's a bit of a coin toss though

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers mate. Went Adrian last week and it didn’t turn out to well lol

    PSG watching too much of Palace last night, shocking defending!

    1. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      They are a man down and chasing a game

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just why ?

  9. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    A wild Casemiro appears in the box. Side foot attack effective.

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

    Do I ship Richarlison this week or hold him for gw 31? Only other option is to go Duffy to Schindler and play Schindler this week (bench Richarlison).

    A) Schindler gw 30 and 31 + Richarlison gw 31
    B) Walcott gw 30 and 31

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      When you have him this long you may as well keep him for 31

  11. Schliegs

    Do Tottenham have a gw31 fixture?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years

      no

    2. Epic Fail

      yes

    Impressive to think PSG can replace an injured Neymar with Di Maria, then sub him off when he's brutal and bring on Draxler and still manage to be woeful.

    I think it actively takes effort to play so bad with their squad.

    1. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      When the league is a cakewalk sometimes it can be difficult to raise your game against a quality opponent

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        They were on fire earlier in the season.
        Your's is a good point but reckon it's a disharmonious bunch and rumours certainly suggest that.

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

    Play Ogbona or Wilson this GW or maybe Ogbona to Schindler and play him?

    1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Got all of them so dunno :/

  15. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Failed season for PSG then? Even if they win the double.

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

      Yep.

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

      For other Ligue 1 teams it would be a great season.

      For PSG, we all know their last hurdle is the Champions League. They went out and spent an awful lot of money for what I presume was that purpose. In my opinion, they didn't need Neymar and Mbappe to win Ligue 1, maybe would have been tighter but they'd still be favourites imo. All of that summer preparation was for the Champions League, so this has to be classed as a pretty disappointing season in that regard.

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Who would you prefer to get in first Willian or Mkhi?

      Mkhi has WAT then STK
      Willian has CPL then TOT

      Whichever player I don’t get I’ll be getting in for the second game in gw32 anyway.

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

        Is neither an option?

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yes of course. What do you recommend here?

          DDG
          Davies, Martina, Maguire
          Salah, Mahrez, Arnie, Walcott, Kenedy
          Kane, Firmino

          Hennessy, Wilson, VVD, Francis

          1ft 3.1 itb

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

            Not sure what I'd recommend for this week, all I can say is neither option fills me with that much confidence at the moment. Probably prefer Willian but then rotation and fixtures like Tottenham aren't ideal.

        2. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I do see Chelsea going on a run though for the top 4. Especially if they get knocked out of CL by Barca. Arsenal have great fixtures. Both have DGW’s.

      Some kind soul let me know latest around 34/35/37 - thanks in advance

          34 double GW? 37 double GW expected ? Which teams likely?

      Love PSG crashing out. The most synthetic, foul tasting team in world football. Far worse than Real.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

        This

      2. Syd.
        • 16 Years

        Barcelona have spent shed loads of cash also it is just a fact of modern football which you will just have to get use to

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

          Your team is second

          1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Actually they're first by about 15 points 😉

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

            Obviously you don’t appreciate the best football the PL has ever seen then

            You must be a Tony Pulis fan

          What autocratic monarchies effectively bankrolling clubs. How very sporting.

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

            Barcelona and Real have been doing it for years

            1. Dr Van Nostrand
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              They aren't run by petro states

                • 16 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

                Still state sponsored teams

                1. Dr Van Nostrand
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 10 Years

                  Madrid received favouritism under Franco but that's about it. Anyways I don't begrudge the current City team as Pep is a footballing treasure and are showing more restraint than a few other teams atleast.

      Predictions for Utd Liverpool on Saturday.. looks a massive game to decide 2nd place.

      I wonder will Jose actually try to go for it this time with Kaku & Sanchez rather than playing not to lose

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

        0-1

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Scenes if this happens. Klopper air punching his way up the old Trafford touchline like a young Mourinho all those years ago with Porto.

      2. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        1-1

      3. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        0-0

      4. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        0-0 Borefest

      5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Bizarrely I could see a 4-3 or 3-4 as both teams are scoring & conceding at the minute & have bones to pick after the first game being slated for a 0-0

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

          Liverpool have only conceded once in their last 5

          1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Long overdue to concede a few 🙂

      6. Dr Van Nostrand
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        He'll park the bus just like his last 3 against Klopp

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

        2-1

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

        Liverpool will take it.

    6. Alexis Nonsense

      Anyone know if Ibe is back soon ?

      And what are you doing with Sterling? Keep, or bail?

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

        Ibe has a minor knock

        Selling Raheem

      2. SB007
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Keep Sterling - not sure about Ibe mate

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

        Dunno

        Waiting for news.

      4. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Not optimistic on Ibe though we haven't really got anything concrete.

        Obviously see what squad MCI pay tomorrow

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

      Andy transfers in a player that doesn't play and get's a signed teamsheet from said player and a good story to tell.

      When I do that I don't want to show up for work on Monday morning for fear of the ribbing i'll get.

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years

        Andy is the ultimate plastic fan 😉

      Help please - play one.....

      Doucoure (ars)
      Mee (wha)
      Niasse (BRI) already got Walcott

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years

        Doucoure against a rubbish Arsenal

        1. TheBrat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Who's the #11 on Az's wall?

    11. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Really unsure on this... Considering I don't have a wildcard and will likely stick with those players for at least 3-4 gameweeks...

      Is Monreal and Quaner > Hudd def and Deeney worth -4?

      1. SB007
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yes on current form and fixtures

      2. Big P
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Is Monreal out for a while?

    12. SB007
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      What are expected DGWs and who? TIA

      1. Virgil Hilts
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        DGWs probably 34 & 37, but don’t rule out some games being re-arranged outside these 2 weeks, it has happened in other seasons.

        Fa cup quarter finalists and semi finalists and their opponents will have DGWs from when the league games were postponed to hold the QFs and SFs ie. fixtures from 31 & 35 to reschedule

    13. Yogi_mike
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Is gw31 when everyone using the Free Chip? Or is it better on DGW I got all chips still

      1. SB007
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        The theory is the DGWs when there are more appealing options....but these things tend to throw up some surprises like

        Walcott & Shaquiri brace

        Liverpool dont score

        Clean sheets all round for Hud/CP/WB/Bou

    14. Big P
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Best 31 combo?

      A) Schindler and Tosun
      B) Baines and Mounie
      C) Francis and King

    15. Flynny
      • 11 Years

      Anyone watching the scout cast and see az transform into Bobby Zamora???

      Weird
