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.

    Wilson to King too sideways? wilsons not ponying up the points atm

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

      It could be a good move but to even get 7 or 8 out for 31 I can't afford to go sideways. Just hoping Wilson comes back to some form but it ain't looking good.

    2. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Depends if you're wildcarding in GW32. As I am I'm just holding Wilson then getting rid for Ayew

    3. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunately it is too sideways for me

      Got Sterling and son to be concerned about. So can't wast my FT on a sideway move like that

  2. QuintonFortune25
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Can get this team for GW31 with no hits. Worth taking a hit for anyone I'm missing?

    No GK
    VVD - Bauer - Schindler - Mariappa
    Salah (c) - Walcott- Shaqiri
    Firmino - Wilson

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      9 is enough

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

      Maybe for a GK, should get 2 Pts at least...

      1. QuintonFortune25
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Who you reckon, Lossl?

    3. skodaole2
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Would take a hit for a GK (probably would take 2 hits for a GK and another starting mid since you ll get 4 points just by their starting the game)

      1. QuintonFortune25
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Any suggestions? Would be tempted by Lossl and Sigurdsson

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

      Probably not but if you haven't made some of these moves already I would consider some cheaper attackers instead.
      See my bargain basement attacker diffs for 31 below.

    5. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Butland looks good for a GK

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

    Why did A.King get minutes this week.
    Is he likely to play again this week or not?

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Hard to be certain but probs. Why not Ki?

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

        Sorry I should have explainednot a move I am looking to make.
        He has been bench fodder for weeks.

        Had Dunk on the bench too. But usually the bench does nothing so I can't complain, but I am anyway 🙂

  4. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Ideal outcome for son and Sterling owners.

    Son to be rested or to start and come off 60-70th mins.

    Sterling to start and taken off 60-70th mins.

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling won’t start imo. On the bench should be good news for owners.

      Son 60-70 mins or bench should be good. If 90 mins I would be worried but he’s in good form so really makes it tough selling him this week.

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers.
        If son plays 90. I will just do him to Mahrez and sacrifice a GW31 player

        1. Karan_G14
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Depends on your team honestly. For me I’m keeping both unless injured as I think the replacements I’m getting next week (Mane & Shaqiri) could match any mid I get this week. Plus Son & Sterling can deliver from the bench too.

          1. Whats the Huth
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Currently have 6 GW31 players with 3 FT
            So I can get 9 GW31 players with no hits.
            But I'd rather get the likes of Mahrez or Sane for GW30. Than stock up on a 2 pointer GW31 player.

            I may well go down the route of keeping them as well. I'll need a strong bench though.

            1. Karan_G14
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              Agreed.

              But Mane & Shaqiri could both match or do better than Sane or Mahrez though. Although if it’s any other mid you would get in 31 I’d probably prefer Sane or Mahrez this week.

          2. Whats the Huth
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            All depends on team lineup for tonight

            Hope to see both on the bench

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

          He's got 5 days till his next game.

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

    Thinking of just going for form picks to complete my GW 31 team before WC in 32

    I will have 2FT for 31 so for -4 next week I can go
    KDB, Eriksen and A.King
    > Shaq Milli and Pritchard
    To give

    Robertson
    Shaq Milli Pritchard Walcott Salah
    Firminio and Wilson

    Thoughts please on these moves?

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah good shout on Pritchard, Will monitor him this week to see how we does in a favourable fixture

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

        Thanks. Would you consider van La Parra instead or do you think Pritchard is the one to get?

        1. QuintonFortune25
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah van La Parra has looked good recently also. Don't ever watch a Huddersfield game for full 90 mins but based on MOTD highlights Pritchard looks better. Will try and watch extended highlights this week and decide if either of those are worth taking a hit to bring in for myself also

  6. Homo Neanderthalensis
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Vardy & Arnautovic to Aubameyang & Doucoure a decent move??

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nope. Vardy & Arnie have amazing fixtures this week.

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

      Imo would not consider these

    3. Jayv807
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Na, I have Auba but only because I’m doing terrible so figured why not.

  7. Jayv807
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Planning to save FT so far. Starting lineup OK or should I swap out someone for Wilson?

    1FT 0.3m ITB

    Fab
    Alonso, VVD, Maguire, Davies
    Hazard, Salah, Eriksen, Ramsey
    Auba, Firmino

    JP, Wilson, Mili, Ogbonna

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Tough.
      I have Wilson. But I'm keeping and hoping he somehow starts and scores.

      1. Jayv807
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry, I’m keeping too. I meant should I start Wilson this GW. Any thoughts?

        1. balint84
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I would put Wilson in 3rd place on bench this week.

  8. Messsiaah
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What’s the deal with Mahrez?

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      What you mean?

    2. Homo Neanderthalensis
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think is FB account was hacked personally.

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

      Has to be fake. It's the only post uploaded by Android too. Somone probably stole his phone.

    4. Park the bus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      embarrassed you had to ask. clearly a hack

  9. Jonny Sutt
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Can someone explain the double gws left? Will there be one or two? Obviously the 12 teams that aren't playing next week have an dgw each. When is that? And is there another week? Has anyone got a link to a thread explaining it?

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

      One in 34 and other in 37. Plus there is always chance of one mini-DGW somewhere but 2 are guaranteed.

      1. Jonny Sutt
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Are gw 34 and 37 teams the teams that don't play next weekend or are other competitions taken into consideration too?

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

          Next weekend plus teams not playing in GW35 due to FA cup next round involvement.

  10. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    My GW31 team with no hits. Not all certain starters but should be enough I’m guessing?
    Nothing worth a hit right?

    Lossl
    Dawson • Daniels • Wimmer
    Salah • Mane • Shaqiri • Walcott • CM
    Firmino • Niasse

    (Elliot / Kane / Alonso / Ota)

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      11 players. No hits. In a strong position. Well done.

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers mate! Although Wimmer doesn’t even make the bench these days haha.

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

      Hopefully you have a WC 😮

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Haha yes. It’s locked in for GW32.

    3. balint84
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      your 3 defenders will all get a maximum 2 points this weekend.

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I’m happy with that as I don’t think many teams will even have 3 defenders. And I’m not transferring them in they are already in my team.

        My 3 transfers coming in are Lossl, Mane & Shaqiri.

      2. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Also 2 of them won’t start this week. If you can see I have Alonso & Otamendi.

  11. JasonG123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    2FT. Which move?
    (A) Jones to Coleman
    (B) Lingard to Walcott
    (C) Jones and Lingard to Schindler and Siggy/Wally

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Wait for presser for news on Martial/Jones. But all the moves make sense given United are playing Pool.

      1. JasonG123
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Even if Lingard and Jones are going to play, isn't it arguably worth it to get rid of them given bad form and fixture?

        1. Karan_G14
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yup agreed on that. Makes sense to get rid of them this week.

    2. balint84
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      a

  12. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    So everyone planning to sell two out of their three Liverpool players on GW32 wildcard?

    A bit worried about selling them, they have great fixtures and could easily outscore the DGW players.

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

      From previous osts it seems very few will be getting rid of Firm and Sal despite the SGW in 34.

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Firmino’s only decent replacement is Auba tbh so it’s definitely a big risk.

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

          Luka?

          1. Karan_G14
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Totally forgot about him. Could be a cheeky differential. United have good fixtures except City in 33.

    2. JasonG123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Salah will of course be staying.

      Firmino will depend on the options available (Auba or Lukaku may be in form). Will bring Firmino in for GW35 free hit anyway.

      VVD/Mane will probably go, but maybe back on GW35 free hit.

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        The big decision is definitely Firmino.

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Planning on keeping firmino because of budget. Would love Lukaku but that would mean no hazard

  13. Champions united
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    The DDG and Elliot
    Elliot to GW31 playing keeper -4

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

    Currently have these gw31 players,

    VVD Francis Schindler
    Salah Ibe
    Firmino

    Planning to do Ryan/Mkhi > Butland/Shaqiri -4 next week, good moves?

    1. JasonG123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe target another attacking player rather than Butland.

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

      Just Mkhi to Shaqiri

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Is ibe guaranteed a game ? I d do your minus 4 but what about mounie ?

  15. Your Mum Zohore
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Soooooo,

    Brighton are in 10th and Everton are one spot below. Both on 34 points AND both play each other this GW. Everton have Williams out, good time to bring in Gross/Murray?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No Brighton doesn't have a game in gw31, unless you use fh of course

      1. Your Mum Zohore
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        FH-ing all the way boss, BHA play EVE, LEI, HUDD and CRY next, gotta be some goals in that right?

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Wow great run . Definitely some goals yep. Glad I read your post will definitely bring a Brighton player in my team now 🙂

          1. Your Mum Zohore
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Most welcome, all the best!

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

      No but means I will hold on a week before I go Gross to Walcott despite saving the exact cash.

      1. Your Mum Zohore
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Guess you're having GW31 in mind already then..

    3. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yep, after lots of chat on here it's nearly arrived. Last week for free hitters and renegades to make points.

  16. fridge
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    (Adrian) (Ryan)
    Schindler. VVD. Kenny (Ota) (Og)
    Salah (c). Walcott. Mili (Mahrez) (Erik)
    Quaner. Firmino (Kane)

    On paper I have 8 playing in 31 but in reality Kenny and Quaner may not play. Would you just keep them anyway and use 2 FT to do the below next week?

    Og and Erik > Daniels/Bauer and Shaq

  17. balint84
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Buying one:
    A) Aké (this week v Spurs, but next WB)
    B) Zanka (good fixture, but seems no clean sheet)
    C) Doucouré (Arsenal, Pool)
    D) Milivojevic (Chelsea, Hudder)
    E) Stanislas (Spurs, WB)
    F) Siggy (expensive but Brighton & Stoke)

  18. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I wonder how that gw31 is going to turn out. So many planning and sacrifices in order to get players from hud and Bournemouth ..maybe using the fh chip wasn't about fielding a full 11 that day but more about not having to plan for it . I really regret not going that later path now...

  19. FPL Virgin

    Best Bournemouth player for GW31: https://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/public-stats-tables/view/23580/

    Members only. The player who came out top of the table surprised me!

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Can we guess with three questions ? Only joking 🙂

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

        I'd expect Gosling

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

      Surprising... 😮

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

      Looking at those stats to say he's the best is theoretically true, but a little misleading. 'Least worst' would be more accurate.

  20. Jarnathan
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Should I play Pope or Adrian? Clean sheet odds favour Adrian...

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Adrian

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Answered your own question 🙂

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

        It's not the whole story though because Pope tends to get save points and bonus points - although that hasn't happened in a while.

  21. EL tridente
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    J ayew to mounie?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Worth a gamble yep

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Staying that ayew is great for gw34

  22. 1Banksy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    If it's true that wildcarders don't impact value do we think there will be much of a change in price between GW32 and GW33?

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

      no

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

      So you think there will be a big change in price?

    3. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Shouldn't be, but price changes have a mind of their own this year

    4. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Don't see many 0.2 rises these days so I am confident the wait is worthwhile

  23. drughi
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Could get this team for gw 31 without hits, good enough ?

    Butland
    VVD Mariappa
    Walcott Salah (C) Milivojevic Shaqiri
    Firmino King

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

      yes

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

      Absolutely

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It s actually awesome well planned !!

    4. drughi
      • 16 Years

      thanks all

  24. RIDZ

    Not really concerned about GW31 so not using free hit or bringing in unwanted players.

    Below is enough for damage control if any? Have 1FT.

    VVD Kenny* Mariappa
    Salah(c) Walcott Shaqiri McArthur
    Firmino

    Bench :Pope Elliot Alonso Mee Sterling Auba Kane

    Do you think any keepers will be worth a hit before GW31? Maybe Butland or Lossl?

    Ogbonna to a 4.8 EVE DEF, which one? With Williams banned for 3 games, Jagielka or Holgate gonna start? Or just go with Martina, but I guess Baines is back as well now and a treath?

      FFS prediction/team news says Jagielka and Baines. Jags to risky?

      Ah yeah Jags is a good option. Thanks for the tip.
