Wildcards are very much active among the ScoutCast crew, and while only three of us make this latest episode, all five are in play ahead of the Double Gameweeks.

Not surprisingly, our rebuilding programme dominates the discussion as Jonty and Andy join me to reveal our current squads and our chosen strategy leading into the remaining seven Gameweeks.

In an exhaustive and in-depth episode, the three of us also look back on the success of the Free Hit in Gameweek 31. Then we attempt to offer a balanced view on the variety of chip tactics from this point on, with a team-by-team analysis of the player targets to consider.

We fail miserably of course, with our own bias no doubt shining through, though the conclusion is an uplifting one: whatever your chosen route with the chips to Gameweek 38, we will all win out in the end.

Unless you don’t have your Wildcard and Free Hit, in which case you’re now consigned to spending the next two months behind the sofa and hate us all anyway.

This ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday evening. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cool. Not convinced of New or Lei CS's.
      Is Austin fit? Assured of starts?

    2. Prøfeßör …
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Very nice. Can you afford VDH to Fernandez?

  3. Lignja
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Sorry for reposting this but i rly need someone to help me with this if posable

    a. Ryan and Simpson/Chilwell
    b. McCarthy and Morgan
    c. keep Ryan, Mogan, Dunk instead of McCarthy, Chilwell, Schooleto and get Kane for a hit if needed for gw34 (or if he drop and Auba rise no hit)

    Thanks

      Alonso, Tarkovski, Lowton, Dunk*, Morgan
      Salah, Son, Mahrez, Wilian, Gross
      Auba, Kane, Barnes
      (Will downgrade Gross to get Kane for Auba and if c. Ill maby need to downgrade one defender for 0.1 or 0.2m)

      1. Lignja
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        This is a solid team ... you got this Lignja! Hold on Kane for this week. Maybe Murray!

        1. Lignja
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Thank you, cant go with Murray i need gros to takr mone of him for some 4.2m if kane force me to get him

  4. ILOVEBAPS
    • 14 Years

    Is Mane > Mahrez worth -4?

    WC next GW.

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Sterling then?

        1. Viper
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Is Mane injured?

          I don't see the problem with owning him this week tbh

          1. ILOVEBAPS
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            No but I am not feeling that Pool will do well vs Palace is all.

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No way

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'd keep this week

    4. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No i don't think so

  5. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    FUT 18 question:

    Would you get 87 Third IF Firmino or 87 PTG Sterling to play at CAM?

    1. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Firmino, sterling is very frustrating at passing

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers - used Firmino's 86 card before on loan and he was fantastic, so thinking his 87 card could be even better

  6. Viper
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Maybe, just maybe, Ben Davies is the one we're all overlooking. He always suckers me back in

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Rose will play one if he DGW games

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        ya i agree and i think it will be the brighton game so just doesnt appeal

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Nah, always gets an illness or something, and Rose needs fitness for world cup

    3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Can’t see him being a player that plays both games in the DGWs. 0.1 more gets you vertonghen. Or 5.4 for Lloris.

    4. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      These are all valid points unfortunately.

      He's one of those that woukd be gold if nailed

    5. Alonso The Great Midfielder
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      yeah, quite like this lad but cannot read poch mind. doesnt say he will surely play both game in dgw but very tempting to get him

    6. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Davies 4 double digit hauls, 6 assists, 2 goals, 1873 mins
      Vert - 0 double digit hauls, one assist, 0 goals, 2579 mins

      Is the extra game for Vert worth it ?

  7. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    RMT
    DDG Ryan
    Alonso Verty Lowton Morgan Mariappa
    Son Salah Mahrez Willian Kennedy
    Aubameyang Murray Lukaku

    A) Good as it gets?
    B) Kennedy to Gross
    C) Kennedy to Gunmondson
    D) other
    Cheers in advance mates!

    1. Prøfeßör …
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      C for me if bench boosting in GW 34.

      1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I am B.B. in 34; I was betting Kennedy would score more over then 3 game weeks than Gud... even though he plays one less game... I could be wrong though

  8. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Over there next 2 weeks, who scores more points?

    A. Swansea/Wat def + Barnes (will start Verto or Morgan this week and bench the Swa guy)
    Or
    B. Mustafi + Gross

    Just the next 2 games, no relation to gw35 or 37.

    Cheers.

    1. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A. Swa/Wat def + Gross**
      Or
      B. Mustafi + Barnes**

      1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Oh definitely B for me then.

    2. korbendallas82
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      B.

      1. korbendallas82
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I kied Gross and Mustafi. Should be close one. Watford could be a good pick.

    3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Very tight.

      B.

    4. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      B

    5. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      B

  9. Viper
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    A. Bailly & Verthongen + cash to upgrade Aubameyang -> Lukaku in gwk 34

    B. Smalling & Mustafi + cash to upgrade Aubameyang -> Kane with 1 transfer if needed

    1. Prøfeßör …
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A or a hybrid. Probably A.

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Any thoughts on the hybrid? 🙂

        1. Prøfeßör …
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Something like Vertonghen or Bailly + Mustafi. On second thought, since you've got the cash, it might make sense to go with A. Everyone wants a back-line of Alonso, Vertonghen and Bailly but almost no one can afford it.

          1. Viper
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            I could get this with 1.1m left over for Aubameyang -> Kane

            DDG Ryan

            Alonso Verthongen Bailly Morgan Lowton

            Salah Mahrez Son Gross Willian

            Aubameyang Barnes Vardy

            1. ILOVEBAPS
              • 14 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              I like this. Way outta my pay grade though

            2. ZimZalabim
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              would u start all four in the chelsea vs spurs game ?

              1. Viper
                • 16 Years
                8 years, 2 months ago

                No, I'd bench Verthongen

            3. Viper
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              That should be Aubameyang - > Lukaku

    2. Nobodinho
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A

  10. Alonso The Great Midfielder
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Has anyone considered deeney? very nice fixtures there...quite love a home fixtures

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      They're on holiday already, you think he will bust a gut? Oh...

      1. Alonso The Great Midfielder
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        just dont feel right double up on leicester attack with mahrez already, (auba and murray the other striker)...

    2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Seems there are a lot of better options with DGWs

      1. Alonso The Great Midfielder
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        already have murray and auba, is there any other candidate than vardy and barnes/wood? would love austin if we know he will surely start

        1. Midlands Saint73
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          I am taking a punt on Deeney but hoping to swap out for Austin for the DGW. Ideally Charlie plays couple of the bench before starting and he will score.

  11. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    a austin and hazard

    b auba and gross

    thanks 🙂

        cheers

  12. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    What's the general advice for ppl if they got all chips and FH used? Do they focus on BB GW 37 or 34?

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Seems it is split.. but I favor WC 32, B.B. 34, FH 35, TC 37

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        This is me too

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Most say wc 32/33 and bb 34. FWIW I’m doing wc 36 and bb 37

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Thx

  13. ZimZalabim
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Hows this Firmino less WC team

    Ddg / Ryan

    Alonso / Valencia / Lowton / Tarkowski / Morgan

    Salah / Mahrez / Son / Willian / Gross

    Aubameyang / Vardy / Barnes

    1.5itb

    1. Alonso The Great Midfielder
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      just like the other, mean it is good team on paper

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Great! You have some cash there!

    3. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Is Valencia really worth the 0. 9 over Bailly?

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        not really im just looking at options if i drop firmino.
        could do
        vert + bailly or one of them and bellerin and keep 1 mil itb

        1. Viper
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Vert + Bailly is solid

  14. Nobodinho
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Mee or Cedric for my WC team? Have Pope.

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cedric

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Scratch that. Burnley defender

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Mee but Cedric did score a nice goal @wig, cutting in from the left funnily enough 😆 Ben Mee

    3. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Id go burnley

  15. semiconductor
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    WC next week.
    Walcott to mahrez/mkhi -4

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      yep

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        But not Mané?

        1. semiconductor
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Have 3 liverpool players already

        2. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          1 week? Yeah

          1. semiconductor
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Yes just for 1 week

      2. semiconductor
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Would u lose walcott or shaq (the other will be on the bench). Mahrez or mkhi?

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          As Theo has just gone down again I would lose Shaq now.

          Regards my Mane comment that was for Netley as I own hime and am not feeling Pool will do well at Cpl.

        2. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Shaq, think he's their only player atm, too much for him. Mkhi for 1 week, any longer get Mahrez

          1. semiconductor
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Yes I'll bring Mahrez next week on WC anyway

    2. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      So you both think just this week before WC

      shaq to mkhi?

  16. Bad Kompany
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Looking ahead Tosun looks like a nice differential for fh in gw 35

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Could be great 38 too as part of a hellish Salah boomerang

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Could be but I’m not sure if I ever want to get rid of Salah

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Wait until 37, it will be a hot topic 😆

          1. Bad Kompany
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            I wonder what Virg will say 😉

            1. Netley Lucas
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              He's getting drunk now, be on twitter 😆

              1. Bad Kompany
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 2 months ago

                Lol

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      def a great option on FH!

    3. Alonso The Great Midfielder
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      think he might snatch a goal against city and liverpool but lack of dgw surely put me off

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Agree with you. I was going to bring him in but then when I saw he had no dgws I decided not to

  17. jia you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    What is the concensus on the CHE v TOT game?
    I have seen one poster that is benching Alonso, another thinking of playing Barnes over Son.
    I would be of the opinion that you must play your premium assets in this game.

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Think it's a Chelski win but could be a gud un, benching Vert but playing the rest

    2. Alonso The Great Midfielder

      surely a tight game when chelsea play against a top 6 team..i'd play alonso and son surely

    3. Bad Kompany
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I’d still play them

    4. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, agree with the above comments. I've Alonso, Hazard & Eriksen. 100% playing them all despite the fact I'd like to play Lowton v WBA!

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Definitely not template for you so. Good on ya!

        1. jia you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          I went off the grid on WC in GW25. Horrible season so had nothing to lose, still at 500k even now.
          Then again around GW22 or 23 I was at 1.7m so small mercies haha!

    5. Weasel Boy

      1-1

      1. jia you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I'll go 2-2
        (Hazard 11'pen 85' Eriksen 43' Willian og 89')

        1. ZimZalabim
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          not Alonso own goal

          1. Weasel Boy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Yeah from an Alonso free kick

          2. jia you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Nah, I own Alonso so am slightly biased 😉

  18. Trovsmash
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Something different - who should i be prioritising in draft?
    A. Martial
    B. B Silva
    C. Courtois
    D. Maguire

    thanks

    1. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      C

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    GW34 BB.

    DDG Ryan
    Alonso Vert/Toby Maguire *** Lowton

    A) Brighton double up with Dunk
    B) Burnley double up with Tarkowski
    C) Spread the risk with Cedric

    Cheers.

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      i was asking the same earlier and all responses said burnley double up would be the best way to go

    2. Srv210
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      C ..but Southampton had been very poor,maybe Hughes can fix them

      1. Srv210
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Or downgrade Maguire to Morgan & get arsenal defender

        1. semiconductor
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Downgrade maguire to morgan and double up on chelsea with christensen or manu with smalling

    3. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      B

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks all. Hard to lose Maguire, maybe by Saturday 🙁

  20. Srv210
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    A)DDG is in almost 50% of squads he won't make the ranks jump as a differential so thinking of going

    Bailly + Courtois instead of DDG can yield some differential results but naildness is an issue for Bailly.

    B) Alonso now for me is looking very expensive ,but can be managed with enablers like Kennedy ...so question is

    Willian or Alonso ???

    Thanks guys.

    Friday 7AM local time....I think I've left myself enough time to put a team together and not drive myself crazy with constant changes.

    Throughout the last nearly two weeks I just check TM's price change and think Hmmm.

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Is your team that bad or you think waiting another GW won't be much of a bonus?

  22. Enzo the Baker
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Last piece of the WC puzzle for me:

    A. Barnes + Vertonghen + Bailly
    or
    B. Vardy + Cedric + Mariapa

    Rest of the team is as template as they come.

    1. Srv210
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A.

      Not a thing wrong with template. You will see in your mini leagues that template = much better team than most 😉

      1. Enzo the Baker
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers Viper, I hope it works out. Good luck with your team!

        1. Viper
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          You too.

  23. Viper
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Go with Mustafi or Verthongen?

    I'm currently on Mustafi because of the next two fixtures plus if any Spurs full back suddenly becomes nailed on through injury etc, they would suddenly become the best option.

    Sound reasoning or save myself a transfer further down the line?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Same thinking here, Viper.

      Mustafi now and maybe even get Toby in who played midweek for Belgium. Or Trippier/Bavies if injuries were to occur.

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        It's hard to get excited about a 6m plus defender with Chelsea away and without a PL goal since 14/15.

        I think Mustafi is worth a punt

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      With your value no excuse not to have a 6, too much money Viper, it corrupts 😆

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Sometimes less is more 😉

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Not the 1st time I've seen this, over-investing but undervaluing quality.

          1. Viper
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Some people feel that the better option is always the more expensive one. Certainly not the case in FPL

        2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Mustafi would be ok if you could put him with a nailed on defender like Verty or eventually Tobi

  24. ZimZalabim
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Which option looks better

    A. Firmino, Gudmundsson, Smalling, Tarkowski +0.2itb

    B. Barnes, Gross, Valencia, Tarkowski + 1.5itb

    C. Barnes, Gross, Bailly, Bellerin +1itb

    D. Barnes, Gross, Bailly, Vertonghen + 0.9itb

    E. Firmino, Ibe, Bailly, Dunk 0itb

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Nothing looks better, very jarring - simplify it

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        basically i would like to keep firmino for now and swap him and auba to lukaku/kane and one of the cheap options prior to 34 but that locks in both fts

        Selling him now allows me to upgrade my def and keep enough to get Lukaku in for 1ft but kane still requires 2 also means i get Barnes in now rather than being able to wait and see which one of Barnes, Wood, Murray or Austin looks nailed and in form

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

          Just keep Firminio

          1. ZimZalabim
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            would you go A or E from the options above if I keep Firmino ?

        2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Murray is nailed on right now.. Wood and Barnes may be competing for minutes

        3. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Kane could be an issue for many, fh35 especially, his price could go through the roof as folk are frozen. Buy quality and make proper provision be it cash or a player

  25. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Pick the best lot. Players in brackets come in for GW 34

    A

    LLORIS Ryan
    ALONSO Bailly Mustafi(JONES) tarkowski Morgan
    Salah Mahrez SON Willian Gross
    Auba(LUKAKU) Vardy Barnes

    B

    COURTOIS Ryan
    VERTONGHEN Bailly Mustafi(MEE ) Tarkowski Morgan
    Salah Mahrez LINGARD Willian Gross
    Lukaku Auba(KANE) Barnes

    A Allows Kane in for 36
    B allows Kane in for 34

    B gives a Kane Lukaku combo from 34 to 38 while missing out on Vardy Alonso and Son

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

      A

  26. yer old da
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Got Dunk and Stephens - would you swap either of them with Tarkowski to double up on Burnley at the back? (Also have double Brighton with Ryan in goal)

  27. Bad Kompany
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Could Mkhitaryan be a captaincy option this week? Arsenal has been a different team at home. In the epl at home not including the City game, Mkhitaryan has a goal and four assists in 2 games. However it is hard to look past Salah.

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, you know the risks

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Will probably just play it safe this week

  28. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Team news says Jones back in training. I will wait 1 more day in the vain hope of a Jones fall, not playing before 34 ain't a disaster, but thoughts on final WC draft please and thank you. Any other suggestions for the Lowton spot?

    DeGea Ryan

    Alonso Jones Mustafi Morgan Lowton

    Salah Mahrez Son Willian Albrighton

    Aubameyang Firminio Murray

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Jones is not worth the hassle imo..

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

        Saw your team money bags!!
        It look great btw.

        Of course I want Bailly but it just stretches the purse strings too far.
        Really want utd double defence and the only options are Jones or Smalling.
        Looking to 34 who is more likely to play is all I care about.
        Your call on 34?

        1. Viper
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Thanks. Money don't guarantee points though 🙂

          I'd be much happier with Smalling I think. I'm considering going for him over Bailly even to be honest.

          I'd stay clear of Jones though personally. Rumours that he fell out with Jose plus he is far too unreliable when it comes to injuries

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

            Yeah but if Gray rotation but. It so bad but on the flip side I want nailed for BB.
            That fifth mid would then be pretty cheap though. Any suggestions?

            1. Viper
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Gudmundsson?

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

            Viper reply
            Thanks issues with Maureen would make me think again. Will look at Smalling again so. Cheers and GL.

    2. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Your namesake had a good game v che, he does rotate with Gray/Chilwell though

      You can have a nice solid 6m as 2nd def and get a decent rotator

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

        Sorry Netley replied above. Fail!!

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          That's okay, what is he? 5.6! Thought he was about 4.9 😆
          Gudmundsson @5.1 is the best, nailed, 2 homes, useful too as they have a good run. Below 5 it gets nasty, very unpleasant, gulp, Ibes. Matic's etc then the Corks! 😆

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

            Thanks Again.
            Yeah the Corks ain't champagne stuff that's for sure!!

  29. Tabbara
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts anyone
    De gea Ryan
    Mustafi Morgan Alonso Smalling Lowton
    Son Mahrez Willian Gross Salah
    Murray Auba Vardy

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Another "value-squeezing", get Bailly or Vert

      1. Tabbara
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Can't find cs for spurs to be honest atm,good option for the double though

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

      Look up.
      Nice team but so much better if Vardy and Gross were
      Firminio and Albrighton. 🙂

      Seriously I think it looks good. Probably not a lot between Vardy and Firmino now and Vardy got the double.

  30. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    So when are people getting Harry Kane?
    Gw33/34 or GW 36?

    Pick one

    A Kane Lingard
    B Lukaku Son

    Anyways will get Kane in 36 for Lukaku. Having Son might cover for Kane...So leaning towards B

    Thoughts??

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Seeing as Kane is back yet: B

    2. Viper
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Gwk 36.

      Either Lukaku - > Kane with 1ft OR Gross & Lukaku - > King & Kane

      Depends how much I leave in the bank after finalising wildcard
