Next up, we take our post-Gameweek delve into the members’ data to assess some of the standout players across the previous round of fixtures.

With Double Gameweeks shaping our plans, Arsenal’s new goal hero, Chelsea’s recent lack of resilience and the form of Man City’s playmaker all come under analysis.

Burnley and Newcastle’s budget frontmen also catch the eye, while we also run the rule over a Fantasy slump for a Stamford Bridge big-hitter.

    To help with the Kane or Kaku showdown for 34....

    Score predictions for the Spurs and Man Utd games please. I appreciate there are many variables before then.

    Man Utd _ vs _ West Brom
    Bournemouth _ vs _ Man Utd

    Spurs _ vs _ Man City
    Brighton _ vs _ Spurs

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Utd: 4-0 & 0-3
      Spurs: 1-2 & 0-2

      I think Spurs at home could be similar to the Liverpool City game. Spurs seem to play well against the top teams.

      1. Sadio
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Have you seen the record of Poch against the top 6? Not good!

    3. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Man U 3-0 and 1-2.

      Spurs 2-2 and 0-1

    4. Going Home
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      3-0
      1-2

      1-3
      0-2

      Think a lot depends on what’s Brighton & City are playing for against Spurs.

      Would expect United to get 4-5 goals over those 2 fixtures.

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Yes - waiting for things to happen is hard!

    6. DJ1000

      7 years, 11 months ago

      I can see Spurs beating Man City. Pep bound to rest some players after 4 games in 2 weeks. Plus league will be settled.

    7. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      3-0

      1-2
      0-3

    8. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      4-0 & 1-3
      1-1 & 0-2

  2. Sadio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Charlie Austin or Chris Wood from now until end of season?

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Get Wood.

    2. 32chickens
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      No brainer

    3. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I fancy Austin to get a few, a relegation battle is his bread and butter

    4. pjomara
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      why not barnes?

  3. Ziyech on the Bench
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    DDG

    Duffy, VVD, Fernandez
    Salah, Hazard, Shaqiri, Mahrez, Walcott
    Aubameyang, Firminho
    Elliot, Mounie, Ogbonna, Mbemba

    No chips left, 0 FT, 0.7 ITB.

    Worth taking hits to change team for the upcoming weeks?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Shaq and Walcott = 2 points most weeks.

      1. Ziyech on the Bench
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Hey TM thanks for response.

        I agree, I am holding them till GW 35 because I don’t have FH and they have good fixture.

        Going to sell Hazard before 36 to free up funds for their upgrade (most likely Bernardo Silva and Lingard) + Firminho to Kane.

  4. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    In your opinion who is the best

    7m DF
    8m MF

    to have for this team until GW36

    De Gea Lossl

    Coleman Robertson Mee Daniels xxxxxxx

    Salah Walcott Doucoure Kenedy xxxxxxx

    Aubameyang Vardy Firmino

    Choices must play GW35

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I feel like i have read this question from you 5 times already . . . . .

  5. pressdpm
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    3.8 in the bank.
    All chips and wildcard available.
    Any advice?

    Pickford
    Otamendi - Van Dijk - Mee
    Salah - Mahrez - Stanislas - Mhikitaryan
    Aubamayang - Firmino - Wilson

    Elliott - Shaqiri - Ogbonna - Dunk

    1. KenyaDigIt
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      When are you planning on playing your WC and chips? Or like me are you pretty clueless?

      I feel the time to play WC would be now - BB in gw 34 with a high number of dgw players - FH in 35 and then TC on 37.

      Your team, like mine, could do with a good reshuffle. I'd suggest keeping Salah, Mahrez, Aub, Dunk and Mee - the rest could do with an upgrade to compliment the upcoming fixtures. Have a look at the top 10/50 in the world and you'll get a feel for the team templates in place... Some players are a must and one or two are punts.

      Good luck

      1. pressdpm
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        I was thinking of playing the chips exactly in the gameweeks you mentioned, just wanted to make sure it sounded good to someone else. Seems for sure to make the most sense. Thanks for the help.

  6. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    I'm actually considering losing Salah....

    1. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I just don’t see the appeal. look at his form and fixtures. add to that his ownership and every time he scores your rank worsens. maybe for gw37

    2. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Id hold. Wait and see what happens in champions league. If Liverpool are eliminated he will continue playing 90 mins.

    3. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      only viable if you want to gamble to overtake several other players in a mini league. Basically hope he starts underperforming while your differential does well to gain points on everyone

    4. boc610
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I wouldnt.

      62%ownership and he can score more in 1 half than a DGW player like hazard can in 180mins

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Reasoning?

    6. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Kane enabler?
      I wouldn't

    7. DJ1000
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I would consider this if Liverpool in champs league semis but even then a risk. Salah only needs 20 mins in a game to score.

  7. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    i’m not worrying about kaku/kane until next week, this week for me it’s all about:

    A DDG (mci)
    B fabianski (wba)

    what are we thinking?

    1. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Swansea arent reliable away...id go for DDG just for the saves

  8. JurgenRodgers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone without a FH got a Kane plan for 33/34?

    Can do Auba/Son to Kane/Lingard next week for Free

    Means Gw35 leaves me well short (6 players)

    1. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I think Auba gets similar points between 33-35 to Kane. Son to Lingard could free up funds for when you transfer him GW 36

      1. JurgenRodgers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Might just go with Son for 33/34 & hide behind sofa lol

      2. Limit80
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Last time I trusted a not fully fit Kane in a DGW I got 9 points... with TC...

        Staying away for now; instead going with aubakaku

      3. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Isn’t leave Lingard out.

    2. DJ1000
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I would do your move and take hits to get 9 out. I assume your other players are mostly dbgw. If you have 12 dbgwers that is effectively 27 players. Imo you need to focus on gw34 and see where you are just before gw35.

  9. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Still no announcement of the remaining dgw games?!

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Not yet.

  10. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Won't happen, but if Kane and Kaku were sent off this week and both missed a dgw game, what would your hasty new look attack be?

    Just for fun.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Depends on CL.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Have things settled down over there?

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Over where? Guessing this is for Torres sorry!

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 11 months ago

            Yeah. Cricket related.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Vardy Auba Firm

  11. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Considering I have ddg and no free hit:
    A. Pope and Maguire
    B. Schmeichel and Lowton.

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      A has the higher ceiling, B more nailed. Will you only play Kasper in 34 (or 37)?

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Play both in 34

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      B . We don't know how long Pope is going to hold the spot . Heaton was fit last week and is club captain . I would prefer A if Pope was nailed

  12. Gazza2000
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Auba -> Kane for free

    Yay or Nay ?

    1. Dokdok666
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Look at the (C) poll

      1. Gazza2000
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Arsenal didn’t look that convincing against Stoke though

        1. Dokdok666
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Auba will score, look at his record both in PL and in Germany

    2. DJ1000
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I will make this move in gw34 need to see Kane playing from the start Against stoke. Auba a great fixture at home

  13. AThousandSuns
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Which of Citys starting 11 is prone to rotation over the next two games(Liverpool UCL and United) ? or would Pep do otherwise and not rotate??

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Ferd Ederson Jesus maybe

  14. panda07
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Should Kane's price not be locked now for a week because he's just back from injury?

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Price is locked only when red flag is directly changed to normal. Kane was yellow flagged before the deadline

      1. panda07
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Ah, I see, thanks!

  15. Dr. DOOM
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Who should I replace Mustafi with for 34? Right now I have :

    Alonso - Lowton - Tarkowski - Morga

    1. Dr. DOOM
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      *Morgan

  16. Unimaginative
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on this free hit team for dgw34
    DDG
    Lowton, Maguire, Alonzo
    Lingard, son, marhaz, Willian
    Kaku, Kane, Vardy

    Thanks

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Salah will outscore at least two or three of those midfielders. Depends if you really need the differential and / or cash

    2. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Keep Salah, downgrade Vardy to Barnes/Wood

  17. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Those gloating about their dross from 31 performing well in 32 should realise that to be considered 31 dross, first they had to have played in 31 and second they should be crap.So lets review

    Robertson (not dross)
    Mane (not dross)
    Salah (not dross)

    Mili (dross)
    King (dross)

    So well done if you kept and played those two players.

    Here is a list of gw31 "dross" failures just from my team in 32

    Pickford
    Coleman
    Tosun
    Benteke
    Wilson
    Shaq

    So yes well played on keeping you dross

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Think I scored 21 more with my new WC team than I would have done with my GW31 dross team.

    2. DJ1000
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Dross and more dross

    3. _Make

    Given that Emre Can is likely to be out, and Trent + Lovren + Henderson are going to start, I would be amazed if we won tomorrow. 🙁

            If a two bob job like Rashford could exploit him, I dread to think what Sane will do.

            1. zotter
              • 16 Years
              7 years, 11 months ago

              Don’t even think we can play 352 now matip out. I would play Milner RB

  20. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    To get Kane in for Firmino...

    A) Son > Gudmundsson
    B) Mahrez > Gudmundsson
    C) Mahrez > Albrighton
    D) Other?

    DDG / Ryan
    Alonso / Bailly / Lowten /Morgan

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      DDG / Ryan
      Alonso / Bailly / Lowten / Morgan / VDH
      Salah / Mahrez / Son / Willian / L Cook
      Auba / Firmino / Vardy

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      A

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        I've looked at that but unfortunately it'll only work with Alonso, and if so - a 4.0 one !

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Rather lose Alonso or Bailly before Son or Mahrez.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Sorry BF - fail reply at you above.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Probably A but do it next week.

  21. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Not got much cash. Thoughts?
    DDG Schmeichel.
    Robertson Lowton Tark Bong Christ
    Salah Son Mahrez Gudmundsson Gross
    Vardy Firm
    0 money. On Wc. No free hit.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      You definitely owned Kenny.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Ahahahaha. You crack me up. Ling too.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Easy 🙂

          TBH, I would get Kane, Salah, DDG and then build a team around that. Your TV looks very low 🙁

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      And Auba

    3. Jönny
      • 16 Years

      Without checking, it doesn't look like you'll have much of a team for GW35.. but I guess if you don't have the FH, that's the choice you make with loading up for the DGW.

      Looks solid enough to me. Christ = Christensen? Not a big fan: bad defensive record recently, he's potentially at risk of being rested/dropped. Not loads at the price, though..

        I think it looks good but I’d be very worried about no Kane

    If I decide to get in Kane for GW34, what would be the best way?

    My squad:

    DDG (Ryan)
    Morgan - Christensen - Mustafi (Tarkowski, Lowton)
    Salah - Mahrez - Gross - Willian (Gudmundsson)
    Vardy - Auba - Lukaku

    0.4M ITB.

    Think I'm gonna save my transfer this week and then looking at these three options for a hit:

    A: Mustafi, Gudmundsson, Auba --> 4.6M def (Naughton?), King and Kane.
    B: Mustafi, Gross, Auba --> 5.5M def (Jones/Smalling?), King and Kane.
    C: Mustafi, Willian, Auba --> 4.7M def (Naughton?), Lingard and Kane.

    Will BB in 34 and FH 35..

      B, but assess how Willian plays next GW. He looked poor vs Spurs so I'm a little worried about keeping him long-term.

    Play
    A. Shaqiri home v spurs
    B. Milivojevic away to bour

    1. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      B

    2. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      B easily

  24. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Foster
    Baines Ake Alonso
    Walcott Salah Eriksen Shaqiri
    Aubamayang Lukaku Deeney

    Elliot VLP TAA Schindler

    0.3 ITB & 1 FT, 0 WC, 0 FH.

    Is this worth a-8?
    Schindler, Walcott, Deeney - Out
    Lowton, Son, Barnes - In

    1. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Probably not a -8

    Am I right in playing Ibe this week over Mounie? Probably 2 points each anyway

    1. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Mounie has a higher chance of getting more points imo. Probably 2 a piece.

    2. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Yes

    If you could only have one of Son or Mahrez, and they'd be your only player from either of Spurs or Leicester for next week and the double.... which would you pick?

    1. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Mahrez ez

    2. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Mahrez

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Son is better but would go Mahrez due to fear of rotation.

    4. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Mahrez

    5. kysersosa

      Mahrez. Less of rotation/reduced mins risk and on set pieces.

    6. Jönny
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks all - pretty conclusive in favour of Mahrez!

    Would you rather have this week:

    Ali away to Stoke or Mkhitaryan home to Southampton. Also have Son and Aumbameyang. Im aware if Mik plays 90 mins on Thursday, that will pretty much make up my mind.

      *plan was to bring Ali in for GW 34 originally

    I had a quick question about free hit.. Say I get am planning to activate free hit for GW 33 and I dont want my free transfer to go waste. Is it possible to bring in a player(say Mahrez) before I activate my free hit.. Will Mahrez still be in my team post GW 33?
