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
      7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      9 is enough

    2. KLOPPTOMANIA
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. QuintonFortune25
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Who you reckon, Lossl?

    3. skodaole2
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Any suggestions? Would be tempted by Lossl and Sigurdsson

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Butland looks good for a GK

  3. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

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

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Hard to be certain but probs. Why not Ki?

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months 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
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 9 months 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
            7 years, 9 months 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
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 9 months 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
            7 years, 9 months ago

            All depends on team lineup for tonight

            Hope to see both on the bench

        2. Yozzer
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          He's got 5 days till his next game.

  5. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months 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
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

        1. QuintonFortune25
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months ago

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

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Nope. Vardy & Arnie have amazing fixtures this week.

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Imo would not consider these

    3. Jayv807
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

  7. Jayv807
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

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

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

        1. balint84
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

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

  8. Messsiaah
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    What’s the deal with Mahrez?

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      What you mean?

    2. Homo Neanderthalensis
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      I think is FB account was hacked personally.

    3. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

    4. Park the bus
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      embarrassed you had to ask. clearly a hack

  9. Jonny Sutt
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months 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
        7 years, 9 months 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
          7 years, 9 months ago

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

  10. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Hopefully you have a WC 😮

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Haha yes. It’s locked in for GW32.

    3. balint84
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months 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
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

  11. JasonG123
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

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

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. JasonG123
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 9 months 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
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

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

    2. balint84
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      a

  12. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          Luka?

          1. Karan_G14
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 9 months ago

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

    2. JasonG123
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        The big decision is definitely Firmino.

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

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

  13. Champions united
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    The DDG and Elliot
    Elliot to GW31 playing keeper -4

  14. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Maybe target another attacking player rather than Butland.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Just Mkhi to Shaqiri

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

  15. Your Mum Zohore
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

      1. Your Mum Zohore
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 9 months 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
          7 years, 9 months 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
            7 years, 9 months ago

            Most welcome, all the best!

    2. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
        7 years, 9 months ago

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

    3. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

  16. fridge
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Can we guess with three questions ? Only joking 🙂

      1. TooDifficuIt
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        I'd expect Gosling

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Surprising... 😮

    3. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months ago

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

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Adrian

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Answered your own question 🙂

      1. Jarnathan
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 9 months 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
    7 years, 9 months ago

    J ayew to mounie?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Worth a gamble yep

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Staying that ayew is great for gw34

  22. 1Banksy
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      no

    2. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

    3. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

    4. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

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

  23. drughi
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 9 months 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
      7 years, 9 months ago

      yes

    2. 1Banksy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Absolutely

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      It s actually awesome well planned !!

    4. drughi
      • 16 Years

      thanks all

  24. RIDZ

          He couldn't break his contract like that anyway

    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.

    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.
