The Big Numbers – Gameweek 30

We check in with the Opta data next and roll out our usual post-Gameweek assessment of the weekend’s standout performers.

Huddersfield Town’s target man and a certain Liverpool winger both up their attacking potential ahead of a reduced Gameweek 31.

Meanwhile, big-hitters from the Leicester, Spurs and Arsenal midfields stake a claim for our upcoming Wildcards, while we also check out the impact of Chelsea’s new frontman at Stamford Bridge.

    kane, JWP, Eriksen > Mounie, zaha and stanislas -8?

  3. Dele
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Mounie or King?

    I already have Wilson.

    1. Over Midwicket

      Mounié

    2. Individual
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Mounie I think! Good stats over the last 4 - I got him in - only worry is the amount of shots he had v Swansea without scoring 🙂

    any news on siggy and wally please?

    Tosun anyone?
    I think he is good choice as differential.

    REPOST: With Kane now out, lineups will be highly Salah (c). This could leave leagues in dreadlock.

    1. BRONALDINHO
      • 9 Years

      Unless people ship him out for DGW players

      The concept of league with dreadlocks is enlightening. 😀

          Kinda went over your heads ....

  7. FISSH
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Kane to Mounie
    Kdb to Zaha/mouy
    Elliott to butland

    Not sure what to do!

  8. BRONALDINHO
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Am I crazy to even consider Baines?

    1. #FPLBhuna
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      not really think its quite a good player to own this week

  9. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Other than Shaqiri, who should I get in my squad for a hit? Or 10 players is enough?

    Pickford
    VVD, Mariappa, Schindler
    Salah(C), Mili, Wally*, Shaqiri
    Firmino, Wilson

    Elliot, Kane*, Alonso, Mahrez, Dunk

    1. LC1
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      10 will do fine

  10. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Daniels or Schindler/Zanka?

    1. pilgrim
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Huddersfield more likely of a cs I reckon

  11. pilgrim
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    For a FT which GK would you be getting for this GW only?

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Begovic maybe

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Butland, easy

        1. pilgrim
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          that was my plan, but wondering about getting Pickford instead to cover Everton as I don't have an Everton defender but I do have Bauer.

          Spread the risk/reward that way.

  12. Fred54
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone genuinely NOT captaining Salah to play high stakes?

    I'd love to but apart from Firmino very slim pickings.

    Return of the Norwegian King maybe? Not even sure if he's nailed.

    1. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah and even if you really wanted to go high stakes, not much to gain by capping Firmino cause of his ownership... might as well go for Mane or Stanislas... or Rondon

    2. Jaws
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Captain Mane here. Need to turn the tables after 6 straight reds.

      1. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Forgot about Mane actually, I was only looking at my team heh.

  13. Jam0sh
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Hello guys. Who'd you bring in here with 1 FT left or would you even take a hit to field 10?

    Pope
    VVD, DANIELS, Ogbonna
    MILIVOJEVIC, WALCOTT, SALAH, STANISLAS
    WILSON, FIRMINO, Kane

    subs: Adrian --- Mahrez, Dunk, Mee --- 1 FT, 5.2 ITB

    A) Mahrez -> Shaqiri
    B) Ogbonna -> Baines/ Coleman
    C) Kane -> Rondon/Mounie
    D) Two of the moves above for a hit

  14. rnrd

    Really considering banking the transfer this week so I can make 2-3 transfers in GW32 and wildacard in GW33? Thoughts?

    Benteke/King are the only options im considering for Kane this week and GW30 has put me off

    Team for GW31

    Hennessey(Hud)
    Baines(Sto), Mariappa(Liv) TAA (Wat) Daniels(WBA)
    Salah(Wat) Shaqiri(Eve) Choupo (Eve)
    Mounie(Cry) Firmino (Wat)

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      You could save 😀

  16. LC1
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Worth a hit to get another player for GW31? (Wildcarding 32).

    VVD Coleman Hegazi
    Salah Shaqiri Stanislas
    Firmino Quaner(!)

    1,0 ITB.

    Cheers!

      It's a bit hard to know how to answer that without seeing your bench

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        I wrote my bench and suggestions above and you didn't answer

      2. LC1
        • 9 Years

        My bad..

        Pope Elliott
        Otamendi Chilwell
        Son Sterling
        Kane

        All not playing.

        Thanks

  18. MartialMatas
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Adrian and Sterling - > Butland and Zaha for - 4?

    Daniels Schindler Bauer
    Salah Mane Walcott Ibe
    Firmino Mounie

    DDG Adrian Otamendi Ogbonna Sterling Kane

    1ft 1.1m itb

  19. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Choose one:

    a) get King / Mounie (who)
    b) get Baines
    c) both for -4

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        King or Mounie

    2. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Think I'm getting King Baines. And King as well.

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        🙂
        you think King will start?

  20. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    zaha and Wilson in for kane and eriksen -4?
    Really want to pull the trigger...

    1. danishdynamite
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      See below, I'm getting Deeney over Wilson, which I'm 'justifying' by needing him to play in 32

      Nowt wrong with your moves though

      1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Wilson will be playing for me in 32 as well and he has a better fixture in 31.
        Love deeney as a player just think Bournemouth attacker is near essential this week v WBA

        1. danishdynamite
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Fair point about WBA. I might have to reconsider

          1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Bournemouth will get at least 2 goals imo. Doubling up on them would be an option if I was using my free hit

  21. danishdynamite
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I need to get 2 players who will play in 31+32 (WC in 33)

    Kane & Eriksen > Deeney & Zaha, which gives me 8 this week

    Pickford
    VVD / Daniels
    Salah / Zaha
    Bobby / Quaner / Deeney

    So: no Everton, Shaqiri, King / Wilson / Stanislas

    Should I be worried - ergo take a hit for - not having one or more of the usual GW31 suspects?

  22. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Too much to hope for a RLC caneo at the weekend?

    Imagine what a coup it would be to get an extra point this week

    1. Pjanić At The Disco
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Read somewhere that if he can get through 3 training sessions, he might be on the bench for GW 31.

      We can only hope

  23. HD7
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Good plan?

    Plan to take 3 hits on Baines Mounie and Zaha.... worth it?

    Will give me 9players:

    VVD Baines*
    Stanislas Shaq Salah Zaha*
    Firmino Wilson Mounie*

  24. Tosa86
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Any news about kane? and aguero?Make sense have a team with: Lukaku, Firmino and CLV instead aguero or kane?

    Make sense keep 3 players of Man united after exit of CL? in my mind i have: De Gea, Smalling and Lukaku. or matic instead de gea to have make money for other player.

    Thanks

    1. Pjanić At The Disco
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Lukaku is a must for me, great fixtures, hitting form and low rotation risk.

      Wouldn't double up on united's defence with Smalling playing. Dude's a terrible defender

      1. Tosa86
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        i agree with you regarding smalling, but is a cheap defender for Man united for the CS, but maybe i can choose Lukaku, De Gea and Matic and choose one defender from other team, my idea is:

        Popo - De Gea
        VDK - Ward - Davies (or sanchez) - otamendi - ???

        where ??? man united, chelsea or other team to propense at CS.

  25. Pjanić At The Disco
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which 2 players out of this bunch for GW31?

    1) King + Stanislas
    2) King + Pritchard
    3) Mounie + Stanislas
    4) Mounie + Zaha
    5) Wilson + Zaha
    6) Others?

    Team so far for GW31:
    Pickford
    Robertson | Schindler | -
    Salah | Walcott | Shaqiri | - | -
    - | Firmino | -

    Thanks guys!

  26. #FPLBhuna
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Enough for this week (-4 already taken) or anything for a hit?

    - Areas for concern: no keeper, Kenny unlikely to start and Wally flagged (potentially down to 8)

    No GK
    Robertson - Keane - Kenny
    Salah(c) - Walcott - Richarlison - Zaha - Mili
    Firmino - King

    1. Pjanić At The Disco
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good to go. Perhaps Butland for potential save points if you're concerned about not playing a GK for GW31?

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        don't think I'd take a hit for a GK personally, but tempted to bin Kenny for a playing defender I think is likely to return points. Tempted by PVA or Baines

  27. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Got an 11 (5-3-2), cost me -8 (-4 in reality): Pickford; Coleman, Keane, Mariappa, A Smith, Francis; Townsend, Salah (c), Mane: Mounie, Wilson.

    Don't want Firmino or Liverpool defenders because I have them in other teams in things I could win. WC next week.

  28. Legohair

    Who is best budget midfielder when wild carding gw 32?currently im thinking gudmunsson.also is it worth to keep salah and firmino when wild carding?

    1. Pjanić At The Disco
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Gudmunsson, Kenedy and JWP comes to mind for me

    2. Individual
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I think if you look at the fixtures in the run in to find a suitable candidate, you're probably looking at Gudmundsson given the fixtures. I might end up with triple Burnley myself with Barnes looking a nice 3rd price striker.

      Another candidate is Albrighton, tho I'm keeping Mahrez so the appeal is dampened somewhat

      1. Legohair
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I have already 3 leicester player probably in my wc team,so allbrighton is not option.but barnes might be good solution,does he play regularly?

    a) Carroll > Stanislas (-4)

    c) both for -8

    go..
