The Gameweek begins within the cauldron of Goodison Park and a Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool.

From a Fantasy perspective, the main interest surrounds absent friends as Mohamed Salah misses out with a groin injury and Roberto Firmino is rested to the bench.

That pair are the two most-owned players in Fantasy Premier League, though they were also the most sold ahead of today’s deadline.

Even with those sales, over 1.9 million managers still own both Salah and Firmino and will now be looking to their bench for reinforcement.

Liverpool make five changes in all, with Andrew Robertson another to miss out. A calf problem puts pay to the left-back who, like Salah, goes into Tuesday’s Champions League second leg with Manchester City as a doubt.

Robertson was brought in by 61,000+ managers ahead of Gameweek 32, making him the third-most bought defender last time out.

Sadio Mane does start for the visitors and will go in search of his sixth successive return having produced three goals and three assists over his last five Gameweeks.

As for Everton, they make just one change, though Fantasy interest in their line-up is much reduced following the blanks of Gameweek 31. Wayne Rooney (10.1%) remains their most owned player, with Jordan Pickford (7.9%) likely to be the most popular among active squads.

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

    Those without free hit, what are your plans? Right now I have 6 players for gw35 (including Auba). Would you do Auba to Kane for dgw34 just to get him back for gw35?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      WC 35 for me

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

      Just take a hit to get some City players for that week

    3. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Play only 7 players in gw 35. And that's with a hit. Suboptimal, but playing a weak BB in 34 seems worse.

    What's more sensible for the DGW's and the rest of the season?

    A) Firmino > Lukaku
    B) Aub > Kane

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      A

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      B

    3. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      A

    4. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      A

    5. Volley127
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      A

    6. Jekori
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Deffo A if Liverpool go through in CL. Lukaku 2 matches more, and won't be benched unlike perhaps Firmino. Arsenal probably play Auba every PL game and he has same amount as games as Kane, albeit 1 less DGW.

  3. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years

    Quick poll for Salah owners..keeping or selling ?
    thanks

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Keeping and monitor him.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks.

    2. CloudSky
      • 9 Years

      Depends if he plays against Bou or not.

      Do we know any fresh update from today about his condition?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Haven't read anything. I think even if fully for he would have been rested anyway

    4. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Kept was gonna FH34 anyway.

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Probably will sell if Liverpool goes through and keep otherwise

    6. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      If you didn't sell him for this week, then I don't see much point in selling now. You've already missed out on his replacement's points this week which would have been an argument to have sold him last week.

  6. Zilla

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

    Bolasie would be a proper "depth player" for Spurs.

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      By depth you mean squad

    Such short sitedness to get rid of Salah by people.

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years

      Really? Still going on about this?

      Give it a rest

            Yeh so you are wasting 4 points for a pot shot.

        says increasingly nervous Salah owner

      • James Sykes
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        I'd rather have Alli (3 games in the next 2 GWS) than Salah (max 1 game in next 2 GWS). And I'm using free hit GW35

        1. MALDINI'S EYES!
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          You really think his minutes will be reduced that much when he's chasing golden boot and poty?

          1. Ghost Gooner
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Poty has been voted for already. CL progression for team > golden boot

          2. James Sykes
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            I never implied his minutes were going to be reduced. It's a fact: he can't play more than 1 game in the next two weeks including this week.

      1. La Roja

        Don't worry. The community will have a whip-round and donate you back those points.

        It's the least we can do

      4. HNI
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Play on own game or why even play? Just pick team using scout picks and keep it for the season

      5. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Don't ask for our advice then if you're going to complain about it.

        Pickford could easily still concede and DDG could still get a CS + MOTM tonight.

        1. Zladan

      So assuming arsenal go through in Europa, they'll play

      22/05/18 v West Ham
      26/04/18 Europa Semi
      29/04/18 v @ Man Utd
      03/05/18 Europa Semi
      05/05/18 v Burnley (maybe moved to the Sunday?)
      09/05/18 v @Leicester

      Looks like rotation to me with Europa as a priority. I know Aubameyang is exempt...

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Rotation for sure with Monreal, Kosc, Bellerin, Wilshere, Ramsey, Ozil and Mkhi the ones likely to be rested

      Lossl + KDB + Auba + Firmino > DDG + Kenedy + Lukaku + Kane (-12) worth it for 8 DGW players?

        Log off.

      Keepers have been good today

      Pickford actually saved something

      The manager said: "Mo [Salah], he's injured. I don't think it is really serious and he can be available for Tuesday but for today he wasn't available. It's the same with [Andy Robertson]."

        Gamble either way. If he misses BOU then it may have been wise to ship.

        End of the season and DGW allows you to juggle it around and not care much about the money loss. Tough call to make.

          Best player in the game (possibly FPL history) misses one game. Selling would lose 0.8 value. Easiest call of the season for me!

      If anyone wants a laugh, here is the very last page of the overall standings

        Which one is your team?

        Last place guy would want to he careful, Seamus could haul. Presume he stuck him in the team when he had a broken leg.

        How is it even possible to make 2721 transfers in a single gameweek?

      4. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        The guy at the bottom made a few hundred transfers over the course of 2 GW's :haha:

        Some people really need to get out more. I thought I was bad using this forum for advice...

    15. A19

      34: Auba -> Kane
      35: Kaku -> Auba?

      Or just keep Kaku for the season run in

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        It could be worth the gamble if you're chasing.

      2. Guy Demel
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Kaku bores me.

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

        Could do worse than WHU and BRI in a double followed by Watford.

      Auba lascelles and mustafi To Wood, Alonso , vert

      -8 (I have FH35)

      Yes or no?

      (BB of course)

      1. Jeremy Corbyn

        No

    18. Nomar

      I might TC Lukaku next week, FH in 35 and BB in 37.

      Not sure 34 is good enough to use BB on.

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Have you used your WC yet? If so I would have presumed you have already made your plans on a particular tactic.

        1. Nomar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Yes.

          Was planning on BB in 34 and TC in 37, but B.B. in 37 looks better at the moment.

          I’m having a pants season so I’m all over the shop this year.

      Team:

      De Gea Ryan
      Alonso Baily Morgan Lowton Tark

      Salah Mahrez Gudmundson Son
      Willian
      Auba Murray Vardy

      GW 34: Auba Murray Salah to Kaku Kane Tom Carol/King (-8) ?

      Original plan was just do Auba to Kaku and then Kaku to Kane in 36 but now I see Kane is already 12.8 and If he rises I will have to take a hit again so maybe take the -8?

      Thanks beforehand
