After yet another goal from Mohamed Salah in Liverpool’s draw at The Hawthorns, Saturday comes to an early conclusion as Watford entertain Crystal Palace at 3pm.

The Eagles’ duo Wilfried Zaha and Luka Milivojevic were among the top seven most bought players for a reduced Gameweek 35 that saw over 154,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Free Hit chips played.

More than 183,000 managers acquired Zaha, who has served up three goals and two assists in the last five Gameweeks, with 21 points in his previous two outings.

Meanwhile, dead-ball specialist Milivojevic has 38 points over the last four, supplementing three goals and a pair of assists with nine bonus in that run.

They now collide with a Hornets defence that’s conceded 30 goals in front of their own fans – no side have allowed more.

The hosts have failed to catch the eye in recent weeks, with Javi Gracia turning to a 4-4-2 today in an attempt to solve a run of three goals in the last five Gameweeks.

Roberto Pereyra’s form has been the one crumb of comfort – the former Juventus man has netted two of those strikes and is looking to score for the third successive match at Vicarage Road today.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      That's 5.8 ponts per player..decent enough?

  3. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Hoping Pickford gets a random rest!

    1. Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I'm hoping he does too and Kenedy puts 3 past the everton sub goalie

  4. ZimZalabim
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    so free hit

    Pros - didnt take any hits this week and got 11 playing but so far its 20 from 4 including salah captain

    Cons - lost team value and with the rises this week will end up losing about a million or so getting in city assets before 36

    1. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Pros

      - Nobody has done well so far
      - Got Salah back
      - Still got 3 Man City, 3 Arsenal to go

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

        Yea that’s all I have going for me

    2. FC nelo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Pros
      Only have two players playing so far, Salah and PvA, both got points. Still more to come.

      Cons
      Ings first on bench with 6 points, but time will tell how it goes.. Feeling positive!

  5. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    2 points (-8) from 2.

    Lowton vdH Mee*

    The only crumb of comfort is that apart from Salah, no player had an EO over 100% in the Top 10k. So can cheer on my players at least.

    1. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      City can destroy Swansea . Hope my players score goals

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

    2. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

    3. Scapegoat Salah

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years

      Load of sh*te isn’t it! Weekly dose of depression

    2. Tiote on Peyote
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      You've a decent history man, don't overreact to a bad week.

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

      The hardest part is doing it. When it's done the relief hits you. Best thing I've done all season 😆

    4. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Tough season. Having trouble myself so all good

    LMS Captains (43 teams)

    Salah 34
    Jesus 6
    Auba 1
    Sterling 1
    KDB 1

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

      I would like to ask the KDB captainer how he walks through his front door with balls that big

        1. GOTHAM City F.C.
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          He seems to be getting his captaincy right most of the time.

    2. FC nelo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Go KdB!

  11. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Even my free hit team can’t score! 😆 Should have known better than getting MoreNO! Looked horrible

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

      he did but the whole unit looked terrible were lucky to not concede from those early corners.

      Squad depth at LFC still looks quite poor

  12. Fresh_From_Desh
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    18 with 6 to play and captain

    FML

    Chips are cursed

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      FH?

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

        Yes

        BB last week, scored poorly

        TC left. May as well lump it on Hennessy

  13. Legomané
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Any chance Tomkins sneaks back into the baps...3pt yellow 🙁

  14. Flynny
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Reckon salah starts next week v stoke??

    If so tough call on captaincy with Kane home to Watford.....

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

      I think it depends on the result in the first leg but i would think he def plays some mins and salah can do enough damage in 20 mins. Klopp did say its good that we have four days between each game so def wont be as much rotation as there was at everton

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      He always plays

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

      Nah

    4. Point-one short
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Wouldn't have thought so he'd play 4 games in 11 days.

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

        Guess a lot depends on Tuesday.

        If pool blow Roma away he may play v stoke as there would be no need to play him 2nd leg.

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Can't see Liverpool blowing Roma away but even if, Klopp will be vary off what happened to Barca with a 3 goal lead.

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 11 months ago

            This

          2. Fresh_From_Desh
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 11 months ago

            Kabasale gona keep Kane in his pocket

  15. Vlekz
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Free hit in play. Have only Zaha.
      ML leader has only 6 playing players and has Hennessy and Mariapa. How dafuq does he do it week in week out?

    • Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I'm so annoyed, I did a last minute change and got Kiko thinking they might get CS. Why did I not choose Mariappa

    • seewhyaxe
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      That yc for tomkins, 3points worth

      1. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        He's still on 1 BAP you jammy casual...

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Think Kabasele will beat him to it

    • Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Wayne Hennessy just moved me from 20k to 16k.
      Words i never thought i'd say after his zero from BB last week.

      Think he deserves a rest now and let DeGea play the rest of season hahaha

    • Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      This is the highest scoring team in the top 10k.

      https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/team/3010979/event/35

      Not a great score. This week could still turn out great if your Man City and Arsenal players do well.

      Chin up everyone!

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

        And he took a -4 and only got the highest score since he still has the GW31 dross in Rondon and Dawson...

    • JasonG123
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Hennessey was the absolute last player selected in my team.

      I wanted Butland and only selected Hennessey because I needed the money for Robertson to Milner after the Anfield Express leak.

      Really, really huge slice of luck. Hopefully, it will surge me into the top 1k.

      1. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Good work.

        Most will have just gone for Klavan it Gomez!

      2. Clintymints
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Good stuff

        Having less money and going for the cheaper option working out well the last few weeks

    • Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Can we start a go fund it to hire someone to take out Jack Butland! Henessey on my bench 🙁

    • Jimmy6446
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      For some reason I still have Kabasele in my team, so am pleased with that result, he finally got me some points after 9gws of blanks :p

      1. Give The Todd Some Love
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Lol wtf he was injured for like 3 months

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

          Still the worse signing of the year for me

    • Gazzpfc
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      We all got sucked in

      Zaha
      Mane
      Milner

      All useless

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

        WBA goals cost 9 baps alone!

      2. Give The Todd Some Love
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Don't forget Moreno

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

        All were good picks don’t be results orientated.

        Rondon and Livermore weren’t good picks even though they got points.

      4. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        WTF you expecting from Milner?!

    • Ibracadebruyne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Any nailed spurs defender?

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

        Just do the opposite of what you think you should do 🙂

    • Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      How do Salah cappers feel?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        I'm surprised to see him nowhere near the BPS again

    • FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Stupid zaha. Better do well for the rest of the season

    • Bubz
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Still have 10 players including captain to come. Not having the free hit might not be so bad afterall

    • Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      I see free hit is so far proving to be the same roaring success that bench boost proved to be

    • Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Last week my DGW team with 32 players was useless..

      This week my FH team with Zaha,Mane,Klavan.. useless..

      Rival witj 7 players only have Hennesey and Mariapa LOL
      Come next year.. I should give up..

    • *sigh*
