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.

    Salah non owners, are you getting him after the FH ?

    Just saw an interview of him after winning the player of the year, the guy is really thinking about breaking records.

    1. MTPockets
        7 years, 7 months ago

        nope

      • Concrete
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        In 38 prob

      • StayoutheSpiceZone
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        No chance

        Home to BHA last game, straight shootout with Kane that day

      • DR0GBA
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        I expect him to get points, but I'd rather go for a DGW player like Eriksen or Sterling

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

          Won't captain in 37 so no point taking -8 to bring him in for Stoke

      • Volley127
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        No. Maybe 38 but unlikely. CL will maybe swing it though.

      • Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Who?

        1. Arctic monkeys
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          The muslim Messi

      • Leaf

        • 15 Years

        Not in my wildcard team

        May get him 38

      • 12 Years

      16 points from tonights game i wasn't expecting that thanks and laterz wally

    3. seanraggettheader
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      65+ a sneaky 7 off the bench with Barnes in for Sane.

      Looks good, but next week is a tricky one when I'm back to the normal team. Will be Kane (c) I think, and will have an eye on the Liverpool team with no Salah... but very tempted for Mahrez --> Sterling & Lukaku --> Jesus (-4) as I'm sure a few will be.

    4. arndff_
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      GW36: Ryan, Willian, Lukaku to 3.9, Sterling, Jesus (-8)
      GW37: Morgan, Barnes to VdH J Ayew (-4)

      Yay or Nay? And why?

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Mahrez, Vardy and Auba
      To
      JWP(5th mid), Jesus and Kane -8?

      Crazy or will pay off?

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

        Kane or Jesus need to brace, dodgy man

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah it is. Gives me a front 3 of Kane, Lukaku and Jesus for 37 BB. I’d be playing Arnie instead of JWP this coming week.

    6. Slitherene
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Kane likely to rise tonight?

      1. Norman Conquest
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        no

    7. DR0GBA
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      My rival has Sterling and Jesus whilst I have Mahrez and Vardy

      We are on the exact same amount of points after tonight

      I'll be bricking it come Sunday during the City game

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

        both yours players will start, his might not

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

          All 4 will start

        2. DR0GBA
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah I was thinking about that but will Jesus really not start? The reason everyone was getting him in was because he was guaranteed starts

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

            everyone is not always right 🙂

      2. Fantasy Gold
        • 11 Years

        So you should

    8. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Even though it seemingly makes sense to do Lukaku -> Jesus, I think we all know that Lukaku is going to go and get his highest score of the season this week. We never learn

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

        i m keeping. home to a weakened arsenal side is a good fixture. might even keep him all season

        1. Respect My Authoritah
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Even a full strength Arsenal side is a great fixture this season tbh. Worst away team in England

      2. MTPockets
          7 years, 7 months ago

          I thought that vs WBA.

          1. Respect My Authoritah
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            I didn't for once second tbh. WBA had something to play for, United didn't

          2. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            haha touche !

      3. FF Dirtbag
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        What needs to be done here:
        1ft and 0.6 in the bank.

        DDG
        Smalling Robertson Lowton
        Salah Mahrez Willian Eriksen
        Lukaku Vardy Barnes

        Ryan; Gross, tarkowski, morgan

        Mahrez - > Sterling for free?

      4. Tabbara
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Current team:

        De Gea Ryan
        Alonso Bailly Morgan Vertoghen Lowton
        Gross Lingard Willian Mahrez Salah
        Austin Vardy Kane

        Which option is better:
        A)Smalling and Sterling for Mahrez and Bailly(-4)
        B)Van der hoon/fernandez and Sterling for Mahrez and Bailly (-4)

        If b) i could save some money and put it in midfield
        Thx

      5. Lee8686
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Thinking of doing

        Auba & Arnie > Barnes & Erikson

        Silly idea?

        1. Arctic monkeys
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah, I think so

      6. Naboo
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Alonso & Gross > Naughton & Sterling (-4)

        Yes or no? Will be priced out if sterling rises and gross is dropping too (desperate to get rid)

      7. stat
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Anyone holding on to Lukaku for one last GW?
          Arsenal's away record is terrible and they'll probably rotate in between EL semi-final legs.

          1. Sánchez
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Haha. See below.
            Not just holding.
            May even captain.

          2. Norman Conquest
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            if we get the nod salah starts i will be keeping kaku 1 more week otherwise i will be doing kaku to kane

        • Sánchez
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Lukaku (c) a bit too high risk if chasing? Rival doesn't have him at all

          He's against an arsenal side who keep losing away and have Europa semis either side of the game.

          1. stat
              7 years, 7 months ago

              He's my VC, I think Eriksen vs WAT will score more pts

              1. Sánchez
                • 13 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Hope not. I don't have Eriksen and rival does

            • Arctic monkeys
              • 12 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              I think Wenger will win his last game against Mourinho, but he could his usual 6 pointers

            • Ajax Hamsterdam
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              i m keeping lukaku but might not captain him. going pogba this gw is af confirms he plays. otherwise eriksen

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

                d oh !!! gong salah

            • MTPockets
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Morata would be too high risk. Lukaku seems a decent option if chasing, despite recent let downs.

            • Fantasy Gold
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              As a Sané owner, I’m very worried by how well BSilva played and his chances of starting next game.

              Worth doing Sané > Eriksen for free?

              1. Arctic monkeys
                • 12 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Eriksen is a good option but I think Sane will start next one

              2. Prøfeßör …
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Gotta keep now surely? No other priorities? My issue with Sane is he tends to play too wide but he will still get points. He should start, there will surely be rotation.

              3. MTPockets
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  Sane was rested so assume he'll start next game. But Pep.

                  1. Fantasy Gold
                    • 11 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    Thanks all, I’ll keep.

                • 13 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Bench one from:

                A) Arnie (mci)
                B) Gundogan (WHM)
                C) JWP (BOU)

                Worried of a Gundo 1 point cameo

                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  C

                  • 14 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  West Ham playing at home....I'd bench B

                    • 13 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    Yeah sorry mixed them up. Fernandinho back from suspension is swaying me towards benching Gundogan

                  • 10 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  C easily

                • 12 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                My ML rival is ahead by 20 points and has his TC and WC intact. As I only have my TC left I need to do something, especially since we both might TC Kane.

                In order to avoid him mirroring my team I’m thinking of saving my FT and probably take a hit or two going into the final DGW. That way I can differentiate. Good plan?

                1. Buck The Trent
                  • 14 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                7 years, 7 months ago

                Anyone on this bench better to start? If so who gets benched?

                DDG
                Smalling Lowton Kompany
                Salah Sterling Son Zaha
                Kane Jesus Barnes

                Ryan Gudmundsson Mustafi Morgan

                1. MTPockets
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    I'd play Gudmundsson over Zaha.

                    1. Prøfeßör …
                      • 9 Years
                      7 years, 7 months ago

                      I'd spread the risk with Zaha but be prepared for bench points.

                    Will Morgan play?

                      7 years, 7 months ago

                      It's probably a blessing in disguise if he doesn't play. It will force all owners (including me) to get rid.

                    Sanchez or Mahrez out for a City mid.

                    Yeah, exactly as you've put it. Save or Mahrez to Sterling or Eriksen. The difficulty would be not so much whether to keep Mahrez or not, but more on whether to bring in Sterling or Eriksen (or save for more information next week). I think Eriksen has the better fixture and is nailed to start. You never know with Pep. Spurs have to perform at home to Watford, surely. It's a tough one.

                      Cheers Professor, good to get some backing for my thoughts on possible Mahrez out transfer. Will take a look later in the week if there is any more information on possible City line up. I think I'll want to bring both (Eriksen and Sterling) in come GW37. Pretty much 50/50 between those this GW though as you said.

                  GW36: Ryan, Willian, Lukaku to 3.9, Sterling, Jesus (-8)
                  GW37: Morgan, Barnes to VdH J Ayew (-4)

                  Yay or Nay?
                  Why?

                    Nay. Those gw36 moves feel too risky for hits imo.

                    Too many hits, imo. I'd like to keep Willian (mainly because of price range, but.I think he can be still be good value). How about a simple Mahrez to Sterling or Lukaku to Jesus? If Salah doesn't start, he's clearly the one to go. May even be worth saving for one more GW.

                    I like Barnes to Ayew in GW 37. Morgan to VDH, hmm it depends. Might be worth it.

                      I've already had Alonso, so prefer to ditch Willian to Sterling... Mahrez is my only Leicester attacker. They have WBA at Home.

                      PB, mind to give thoughts on my team just above? Contemplating whether to save or possibly bring in City mid/ Eriksen in this week. Would probably get rid of Mahrez then and keep Sanchez at least for this week.

                    Too much shuffling, I would cut down two of these transfers

                      Thanks! What exactly would you do?
                      Here's my full squad, if you want to take a look at it:

                      DDG
                      Cedric Lowton Long
                      Salah Mahrez Son Willian Kenedy
                      Kane Lukaku

                      Ryan Barnes Morgan Alonso

                  • 14 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  On a WC... which is best for the next 3 weeks?

                  A) Salah + Dummett
                  B) Ali + Jones
                  C) A in 35, move to B 36 for -4

                  1. LonesomePundit
                    • 8 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    I think Mo is pretty necessary next week if starting.

                  2. Les Bleus
                    • 14 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    Stopped reading at Salah.

                    A

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

                  Stumped a bit.

                  52 points behind in mini league.

                  Team for next week.
                  De Gea
                  Van Dijk, Lowton, Dummett, PVA, Mustafi
                  Lingard, Salah, Sterling, Alli, Mili
                  Kane, Aubameyang, Rodriguez

                  Rival has Jesus, Mane and Son as key differentials. Mine are Sterling, Alli, Auba.

                  Anything worth doing for a hit ahead of 37? Or just hold transfer and reassess next week.

                  Who to bench out of Dummett, PVA, Aubameyang?

                  • 8 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  How's this looking for GW36?

                  DDG
                  Lowton, Vertonghen, Tarkowski
                  Mahrez, Hazard, Willian, Lingard
                  Murray, Kane (c), Vardy

                  Pope, Morgan, Mustafi, Cook

                  Already used a FT - £1.5m ITB

                  • 8 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  Kenedy Dbrovka J Ayew on bench De Gea Smalling Lowton playing rest of the team is fine
                  seems right perhaps Kenedy as first sub instead of Ayew
                  yes? (am a Newcastle fan)

                  1. MTPockets
                      7 years, 7 months ago

                      Think I'd play one or both of Kenedy/Ayew.
