Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Newcastle

The curtailed Gameweek 35 concludes at Goodison Park tonight as Everton host Newcastle United in a fixture that has all the makings of a dead rubber.

The two teams are now surely safe from the threat of relegation and appear to be playing for Premier League prize money only over the remaining matches.

But from a Fantasy perspective, there is still interest in the Merseyside clash, with Free Hit managers investing in the likes of Jordan Pickford, Leighton Baines and Seamus Coleman in their one-week refresh.

All start for the home side tonight.

Meanwhile, those without the chip at their disposal, likely take Magpies assets into this match, with Ayoze Perez, Kenedy and budget defender Paul Dummett among the most likely to feature in squads.

Indeed, Perez is the most signed player on show tonight, having commanded over 133,000+ transfers in ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

That follows a rich vein of form from the Spaniard which has produced three goals and three two assists from his last three Gameweek starts.

Perez sits behind Islam Slimani in the attack tonight, with the Algerian starting a Premier League match for Newcastle for the first time since his loan move from Leicester City.

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

    Last Man Standing Update πŸ†

    Safety score = 72
    Top score = 82
    LMS average = 66.74

    43 : 23 eliminated
    20 through to the LMS semi final where top 4 or equal go through to the final.
    No chips will be counted in GW36 as the most anyone has is 1 which is planned for 37.
    Congrats to all the semi finalists. πŸ™‚

    18K GW Rank. 😯 No FH ... just good planning.

    I do think there is merit to this strategy for next season https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2018/03/23/an-alternative-strategy-for-the-doubles/

    Treat the free hit as a third Wildcard. Don't use it in a gameweek with just 5 fixtures. Use it in a double with 15 plus fixtures. Much more potential that way.

      i did that, pity i backed man u. As usual the correct strategy is defined largely by luck

      One way to look at it.
      However, GW25 when I started planning for GW31 BGW I was over 90,000 places behind you.
      As of now I'm about 50,000 ahead of you with my flawed GW32 WC 34BB 35FH 37TC approach.

      I've heard you bleat on and on about this for weeks now.
      Time to cut the bullshit.

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Game was updating, make that 37k ahead.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Different strategies work for different people. I've gone with the 34 FH, 36 WC and 37 BB. The 34 FH worked beautifully for me, and my 35 team had 11 players who got me 57 points.

        Currently 900 in the world, with my wildcard and bench boost left. I'm pretty sure bench boost is worth more than TC, so this leaves me in a far stronger place than most of my rivals.

        "..just good planning" What a joke - still having Walcott is 'good planning'? He happily accepts Wally's points from only the second match all season that he's scored, while bagging out Smalling owners last GW as being 'lucky'.

        Not many. Lingard maybe

          Done.

    11. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Does anyone think that Eriksen could be a rotation risk in DGW 37?

      Alli has had his rest now and Eriksen has been playing non stop.

      Spurs can secure their CL spot by winning the next 2 games if Pool drop points vs Chelsea. That makes the second games in the DGW a concern.

      Poch may easily play Lamela - Alli - Moura behind Kane and give Eriksen a rest.

      Is Eriksen that secure a starter over Alli for the run in?

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        he's their most in form player so we have to trust he'll start. As with anyone there's always a risk

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          True but do they need to push him with the world cup coming up if the CL spot is wrapped up?

      2. RESULT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Alli in for son possibly.
        Then again any city or spurs mid could get rested.
        Can see lukaku rested for dgw with rash and martial starting. Either way a good bench might help

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Yeah. Now that United are in the final I expect DGW rotation.

          1. Rhinos
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            man u play fri thurs. Be amazed if much rotation

            1. pundit of punts
              • 11 Years
              6 years, 18 days ago

              They would play the first team in the last home game of the season. Hence the second game could be marred by rotation. Doubt they will play the first team so many times before a cup final.

              1. Rhinos
                • 10 Years
                6 years, 18 days ago

                • 6 Years

                Very possible, good point.

    12. Dybala10
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Done Lukaku to Jesus.

      Mahrez to Sterling (-4) worthwhile or give that donkey Mahrez another week?

      Trying to push into the top 50k...

      1. arndff_
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        I'm willing to ditch Willian and keep Mahrez. Think Alonso could be enough Chelsea coverage.

        Mahrez is a donkey, still!

        1. Dybala10
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Willing to stick with Willian for another week and reevaluate with Arnautovic for 37. He always looks like he can do something, whereas Mahrez has been a curse for me this season.

      2. Mr. Jenkins
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        I've done the same move and are giving the donkey another week whilst pushing on top10k

      3. pjomara
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Keep Mahrez, he's 99.9% guaranteed to play 2 full games (bar injury) at home to two teams terrible away from home. One has tge worst away defense in the pl, the other is terrible away from home with their strongest line-up, and will be fielding a very weakened team.

        • 8 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        how do you figure that?

        after reading that, i draw the opposite conclusion.

        i think Alonso plays both in GW 37.

      4. Point-one short
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        I don't follow; says he needs to be more proactive, and 'in contention' to start in a game Alonso is banned for?

      Anyone else have an annoying advert at the top of the page to right of the banner?

      Showed up thr other day, on mobile so it breaks the page layout

          It's super annoying. Have to zoom all the time now.
          Its at the bottom of the page as well.

          Page loads normal as well, then shifts to this ad issue ( I lose the right hand side triple dot menu as well

          hi, thanks for the report. is the problem still occurring?

          if so could you please email the following details to matw@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk

          1. a screenshot which shows the ad on the page (not the popover). on mobile this is currently only the spot at the top of the page, unless sidebar is expanded then its 2 sidebar Ads too. on desktop it could be any of top Ad, Sidebar Ads or Footer Ad.

          2. the device, browser, country and connection type (wifi/adsl/cable or mobile carrier) your using.

          3. if possible the landing page url (of the Ad not the popover or redirect).

          any of the above will help me to track down the Ad so that it can be blocked. our ad network also has automated tools for removing such ads so it *should* just disappear hopefully quite quickly either way.

          thanks.

        if barnes was 8.5and mahrez was 5.3 and on form you would surely play him over mahrez...form over price

        1. arndff_
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Would you KEEP Mahrez for DGW37?

          1. Hy liverpool
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            he isn't a bad option but on current form i prefer arnieee

      2. Göönër W&eum…

        Yes mate GTG.

        I'm planning Alonso and Willian out for Sterling and Lacelles this week (I am in a cash ML cup final GW36 and I have no City, he has Sterling, Jesus and Lacelles, top price is a little wedge)

        Vardy to Jesus for DGW37 is my next week planned transfer.

      Please answer to these:
      1) Is VanDerHoorn nailed?
      2) Mahrez->Sterling now for free?
      3) Alonso+Willian+Mahrez+Barnes -> VanDerHoorn+Milivojevic+Sterling+Jesus for -12? May be priced out tonight.

      Current team:

      DeGea Ryan
      Alonso Vertonghen Smalling Tarkowski Morgan
      Salah Mahrez Son Willian Lingard
      Kane Vardy Barnes

      1 FT, 0.7 itb

      1. arndff_
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Think VdH is nailed on, yeah.

        If I were you, I'd keep Alonso and just go for 2) Mahrez > Sterling.

        To the tune of Tupac's Dear Mama, a heartfelt rap for none other than Lukaku:

        When I was young, me and Lukaku had beef
        Nineteen years old, kicked out of my team
        Though back at the time I never thought I’d see his face
        Ain’t a striker alive that can take Lukaku’s place
        I shed tears with my fellow Rom backers, over the years
        People would call you Trollkaku and other mean things
        And even though you wouldn’t always explode like a bomb
        When things went wrong everyone else would always blame Rom
        I reminisce on the punts I took, it was hell
        Until I captained Rom, I wasn’t doing well
        And who'd think in GW 34, hey
        Mourinho would bench Lukaku that day?
        Benched against Bournemouth, that's right
        Kaku came on and scored a goal for my side
        And even as a blanker against big sides, Rom
        You never was a Trollkaku in my eyes, Rom
        I finally understand
        For a flat track bully it ain't easy tryin' to score against a top team
        You always was committed
        A great striker playing for a bus parker, tell me how you did it
        There's no way I can pay you back, but the plan
        Is to show you that I understand: you are appreciated

        Romelu, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Kaku)
        Sweet Kaku, place no one above ya (You are appreciated)
        Sweet Kaku, don't you know we love ya?

        Now, ain't nobody tell us it was fair
        No love from Kane, ‘cause the mouthbreather wasn't there
        He got injured and I didn't cry, ‘cause my anger
        Wouldn't let me feel for a blanker
        They say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all along
        I was lookin' for a captain, and it shoulda been Rom
        I put my faith in Harry Kane, people told me I couldn’t go wrong
        And even though he helped others rise through the ranks
        He showed this young brother blanks
        I got desperate and kept captaining Kane
        “No way Kane won’t score again” is how I felt inside
        I was wrong, cuz even though I captained Harry ten times
        He only returned for me thrice times
        I love captaining Rom when Rom is due
        I hope you got the letter of praise that I sent to you
        ‘Cause when I was low on points you was there for me
        And never left me alone, because you scored for me
        And I could see you comin' on as a sub late
        You're in the box, tryin' to fix us a goal mate
        You just workin' with the scraps you was given
        And Lukaku made miracles every captainin’
        But now the road got rough, you're alone
        According to others, you’re just a troll
        And there's no way I can pay you back, but my plan
        Is to show you that I understand: you are appreciated

        Romelu, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Kaku)
        Sweet Kaku, place no one above ya (You are appreciated)
        Sweet Kaku, don't you know we love ya?

        Pour out some liquor and I reminisce
        ‘Cause through the drama I can always depend on Lukaku
        And when it seems that I'm hopeless
        You score the goals that can get me back in focus
        When I doubted you like a little kid
        To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did
        And all my FPL memories
        Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
        And even though I act crazy
        I gotta thank you for the 42 points vs Bournemouth that you gave me
        There are no words that can express how I feel
        You never blanked when I captained you, always stayed real
        And I appreciate how you repaid me
        And all the doubled points that you gave me
        I wish I never had to say goodbye
        Your ceiling may be low but your floor is high
        Unfortunately Jesus’ fixtures have more appeal
        Just hope Pep stops rotating like a wheel
        And there's no way I can pay you back, but my plan
        Is to show you that I understand: you are appreciated

        Romelu, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Kaku)
        Sweet Kaku, place no one above ya (You are appreciated)
        Sweet Kaku, don't you know we love ya?

              Thanks, mate!

              However, I'm about to make a -8, so it's an inevitable slip -- outside of top 1k.

            I climbed from 41k to 19k which is nowhere near you but I’m chuffed enough.

            Trouble is with no chips left it can only go down from here!

              Did you make any transfers? I'm about to hit the button...

              Ryan Willian Lukaku > 3.9 Sterling Jesus (-8!!!)

                • 6 Years

                I did mahrez to sterling

                These moves are good, long-term they should pay off,maybe you will fall a bit in 36 but you will be well set for 37

              TC only. Will use it at GW37 -- Kane/Jesus are the main candidates.

          • 7 Years

          Do you think Austin is nailed for both games in 37?

          1. Rhinos
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            didnt start either in 34 so there's your answer

          2. Arctic monkeys
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            He wasn't the last one but I saw the highlights of the Chelsea game and he was great. He could be a regular stater now

          3. Viper
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            They surely have to go for broke and play him now

        5. Magic Bean
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Best defender under 5.2 for the run in?

          1. Viper
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            Naughton maybe

            1. Magic Bean
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 18 days ago

              Looking at him for sure. It's an awkward price bracket. Cheers for the input.

          • Buck The Trent
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            58 pts behind ML leader who is in top 40 OR

            Should I ?

            A) keep chasing and buying/captaining differentials. May go down in rank if dont work out

            B) give up and consolidate position in top 500

            1. Rhinos
              • 10 Years
              6 years, 18 days ago

              A. If you're not first you're last

              • 12 Years

              Doubt you'll catch him but go for the best moves that suit you.

          • Viper
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            Up to 1,366. So close to that three digit figure but I afraid my team doesn't look anywhere near good enough for this gwk. I've no City and won't have any without a hit.

            A. Save FT. Play Bailly (Morgan first sub)

            B. Bailly -> Verthongen

            1. Magic Bean
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 18 days ago

              I would save myself

          • Rhinos
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            no i don't want to play sodding angry birds

          • minges
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            Back under 80k for the first time since GW26, had a horror run! Definitely have to reel in my hit-taking mentality next season..

            Just TC left to play, what looks like a reasonable finish from here?

          • BON
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            I'm worried about having no City players in my team. I can use my FT on Mahrez > Sterling, but then how to get Jesus also?

            Schmeichel • Ryan
            Azpilicueta • Davies • Jones • Tarkowski • Lowton
            Salah • Mahrez • Son • Willian • Matic
            Kane • Vardy • Barnes

            1. Jersey
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 18 days ago

              you don't need Jesus.

              Salah ---> a City mid might be better than Mahrez out if Salah is confirmed rested this weekend,
