Saturday’s events continue with a batch of five afternoon kick-offs, with a sprinkling of Fantasy interest in each.

Arguably, Burnley’s meeting with Brighton at Turf Moor will be the focus, with Fantasy managers still holding assets from both these sides as a “hangover” from recent Wildcards and Double Gameweek investment.

Clean sheets could be the best outcome for many of those managers with Matt Lowton, Kevin Long and Lewis Dunk among the more popular Fantasy targets on show in today’s contest.

Meanwhile, at Selhurst Park, an away win for Leicester City over Crystal Palace will be the desired outcome for many.

Both Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez remain popular assets, although the latter is suffering a rapid decline in stock having blanked in four successive Gameweeks. Mahrez was the second most sold midfielder behind the injured Sadio Mane going into today’s deadline.

Early investors in Newcastle’s assets ahead of their two Gameweek 37 fixtures will likely be willing for a shut-out against visiting West Brom, while Kenedy’s prospects will also be under scrutiny as a budget midfield option ahead of the Magpies’ double-header.

Interest in Southampton’s St Mary’s meeting with Bournemouth is likely to be limited to a minority who have backed Mark Hughes’ defence over their recent double, though Charlie Austin’s output will also be of interest ahead of the Saints’ two Gameweek 37 fixtures.

Finally, the encounter between Huddersfield and Everton at the John Smith’s stadium looks to be low impact in Fantasy terms.

Neither of these sides have experienced recent investment, with both denied the potential of a Double Gameweek. Everton’s Jordan Pickford is perhaps the only player on the ascent; he’s kept three clean sheets in six, claiming four bonus points over that spell.

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

    I have had disappointing picks in last few years but dont think I have ever built a disappointing/sh*t team like current one...

    Literally bored of watching them in my side with zero expectations, 2points at best *facepalm*

      Playing bench boost?

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 days ago

        No

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          Just bench him?

          1. Viper
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 6 days ago

            Bailly Lowton Long the alternatives.

            Bailly will be sold but I'd have to play a Burnley defender

    2. Epic Fail

      For who?

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 days ago

        Naughton or Cedric

        Bailly Lowton Long also in my squad

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 days ago

          I'd probably just leave it unless you can afford someone decent.

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 days ago

      Look at the -4s in isolation. If it's for someone who you think wi repay that hot got for it.

      I personally am probably going to do Morgan > VDH (or someone similarly priced).

    Why was Dummett subbed?

    Tactical or injury?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 days ago

      Probably tactical

      Just to annoy me I think.

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 days ago

      Didn’t seem to be carrying an injury and think it was purely tactical. He struggled against Phillips today when West Brom were putting balls inside him.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years

    Shouldn't someone have told Tammy it looks better tucking your shirt tail in, when wearing a suit?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 days ago

      Mate, he's not wearing a suit. Have you seen his trousers? They have ripped knees.

      He's going for the scrappy look.

      1. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 days ago

        Is that what it's called. 🙂

    God I hate Christensen.

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years

      I learnt that lesson before xmas, never again

      1. faux_C
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 days ago

        I thought I'd learned it but then somehow he ended up back in my team. I'm an idiot.

    Milivojevic kick in the teeth..pen would've been a beaut...

    11(-4) from 3, Chilwell(0) subbing on for Christensen, Lingard for Willian if no show...Ryan(10) on the bench 😮

  18. TLF

    If Dilva doesn't play tomorrow I think I'm getting him in for a hit

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 days ago

      As per a Blue Moon forum user, who is apparently Silva's mate, he's missing the West Ham game.

      Hopefully back after and I plan for him too 🙂

      1. TLF
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 days ago

        Nice one, hoping Sterling and Silva will be enough City....

  19. TrollMasterDeluxe
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 days ago

    If Gross drops tonight, then I have to pull the trigger for:

    Gross + Lukaku --> Jesus + Sterling

    Would you do it even before they have played. I mean I want to wait until tomorrow so I can see Peps starting 11 and also so I can avoid injuries. Not optimal to bring in a player for a hit and then he gets injured.

    Cheers all

  20. Strchld
