We now check in with the form of a number of Double Gameweek 37 candidates in our regular analysis of the members’ Opta data.
Man City’s attack shows no signs of complacency since clinching the title, while Southampton appear to have reason for optimism in their bid to beat the drop.
Meanwhile, we assess the recent showings of Spurs and Leicester’s frontmen, while Man United and Chelsea’s midfield make a late claim for our attention ahead of Friday evening’s deadline.
Top of all my leagues.....Salah >
A - Sterling (safety net)
B - D Silva (will play both games)
C - Sane
D - KDB
just the one move?
if you can spread funds to upgrade elsewhere then sterling, if its just one move then may aswell get kdb at this stage of season
Eriksen?
B) "will play both games" - really??
I would keep Salah (and am keeping Salah)
No thanks. Getting rid
Your call - Sterling will cover most; think Sane might get the most minutes, together with KDB. Honestly think Silva gets very few minutes (if any)
Need to choose a city Mid.
Already done Lukaku > Jesus.
How do you know D silva will play both games?
This.
This fella is clearly picking Silva already and this post is all about seeking some assurances that he’s doing the right thing.
Exactly!
A. Has to be done if top.
A
It seems more likely that Silva will play the first game along with all the first choicers as that's the game after which they'll be presented with the trophy. Then the next game might be more of the likes of Toure, Foden, Gundogan, etc. Just speculation on my part of course.
I'm priced out of keeping Vardy now so I'm looking at:
Bailly, Salah & Vardy - > Mawson, Sterling & Jesus (-8)
This leaves funds over for D. Silva/Son - > Salah for free in gwk 38.
Look good?.
Nice
not sure if mawsons worth the outlay personally but if you have the funds yeah looks decent
I think he's worth a punt, he has a goal in him. I wouldn't be spending the extra funds anyway so worth a risk imo
Mawson here for the same reason, they could keep cleanie and if they don´t he is the main target on free kick and corners. A little bit expensive though
Not wanting to be too critical but you have posted this quite a few times already Viper. From whom are you seeking confirmation for this? You are a competent manager and I'd trust my own instincts if I was you 🙂 That -8 looks fine for me and I'd probably do that yes.
I am very "anti-hit" this late in a season. And I'll explain why:
You start off at -8
Let's say Salah returns his average of 8
And Vardy returns his average of 9 (4.7 x 2)
That leaves you needing 27 from Sterling and Jesus to break even, not to mention the use of your FT to get Salah *back in* next week.
Whereas you could just do Bailly to Mawson this week, and then use the funds saved for your FT in 38 (Vardy to Jesus?). Or bring in a better option than Mawson this week (Spurs/City defender?) as you won't need to save funds to get Salah back next week.
TL;dr - I am very against dropping players who will play (especially when they are nailed and have a DGW) for a hit
I’m not sure I agree with this as a general rule. Salah has an unusually high average
Fair - but 8 points is hardly a huge return. There's no reason why another SGW player couldn't get a single goal (e.g. Zaha, Walcott, Richarlison - early season, less so now lol). I get that you are increasing the minutes played, and therefore the chance of returns. But with very few games left you are limiting the time in which the hit can pay off.
TC dimella >>
a / Kane
b / Jesus
c / Sterling
Rival is definitely Kane TC
chasing or leading?
chasing
stick it on a man city guy then
Most of us have the extactly same dilema and its not an easy one.
Minutes they going to play, opposition, teams form, individual form... so many thing to consider.
I might just toss a coin beetwen Kane & Sterling.
(If I still had it) it'd be B, if I had the balls, it'd be C.
Personally going Kane C this week on BB
Surely C choice would be the same as TC?
What I would do, is objective. What I am doing, is subjective!
what would you rather have for your BB team?
A - mawson + lawton
B - mawson + morgan
C - VDH + cedric (-4)
thanks for any input
b
BB 37 crew 😎
😎
Don't know how to do emojis - but count me in.
Yep
😎
TC Kane or Jesus?
Not Kane
can we make this a hot topic haha
DDG
Morgan - Christensen - Naughton
Alli - Sterling - Gross - Willian
Kane - Vardy - Jesus
Bench: Ryan, Gud, Tark and Lowton.
0.9M ITB and 0FT.
If Walker is out for a couple of weeks I will probably do Christensen and Gross to Danilo and Arnautovic..
If not, what are my best options here? Gross out for a 6.9M? Ramsey and Tadic the stand out options..?
7k overall and quite tight in my cash leagues so hits are costly at this point..
Yeah pretty much what you've proposed (ramsey/arnie/tadic)
Ramsey not a stand out option. Arsenal's biggest game of the season will finish less than 65 hours before ko in the Burnley game - the chances of the best EL eleven starting v Burnley is pretty slim
wouldn't take hit for Christensen, hold and hope he plays v hudders
Best DGW defender for 5.3m?
Danilo or i’ll Be looking at Mawson
Bertrand
Or Cedric if want some money itb
Start a charity pot: £1 in for everyone who asks some variation of "Kane or Jesus or Sterling for TC this week"
This time next week rodders...
Some charity will be millionaires
May I put myself forward as beneficiary?
worth doing the following this week ?
Eriksen & Mawson In for Salah & Kiko
playing BB and 2FT , trying not to take hits
Salah back for Sanchez GW38
Thanks guys
Looks good to me.
thanks Smurf 🙂
Which do you prefer for BB37?
Arnie or Tadic?
Ayew or Austin?
Only combination I can't afford is Arnie and Austin.
Thanks.
Arnie, Ayew
Arnie & Ayew
salah >>
A) Alli (-4)
B) Hazard (-4)
B
I would keep
DDG
Morgan, Duffy, Lascelles
Son, Alli, Willian, Kenedy
Lukaku, Kane, Vardy
Ryan, Zaha, Kiko, Lowton
0 in the bank and 1 FT. Does a 4 point hit on Lukaku to Jesus and Lowton to Monreal sound good? Another option would be Lukaku to Rashford and Willian to Sterling?
who to get rid :
Gross or Willian?
Both!
Willian. Not nailed.
Gross. Nailed. Terrible fixtures.
Gross first imo
For 37 would you prefer -
Willian & Arnie
or
Tadic & Son
Willian & Arnie
De Gea (Adrian)
Valencia Davies Fernandez (Robertson Lowton)
Salah Sterling Son Shaqiri Milivojevic
Kane Jesus (Barnes)
A. Salah to De Bruyne
B. Salah + Shaqiri to Sane + Pogba/Arnie (-4)
C. Valencia + Salah + Shaqiri to Naughton + De Bruyne/Hazard + Pogba (-8)
D. Robertson + Barnes to Danilo + J Ayew (-4)
E. Davies + Salah + Shaqiri to Bednarek + Eriksen + Sane (-8)
Current team is:
DDG
Morgan / Cedric / Vertonghen
Willian / Mahrez / Sterling / Son
Kane / Jesus / Barnes
0.9 ITB, 1FT.
Considering a -8 for either:
a) Morgan, Mahrez , Barnes > Danilo , Arnie , Rashford
b) Morgan, Mahrez, Barnes > Danilo , Pogba, Austin
Do you like either of those, if so which one?
B) but without morgan >danilo.
Have a good feeling about austin and southampton saying up
yeah I feel that if they are to get goals it will come form him. But will he play both given his injury record?
Morgan I feel will play 1 game at most but maybe i'll hold fire on that
What I've read Danilo will depend on Walker availability. It may be worth a punt. Leicester are horrendous at the moment.
Likewise rashford and kaku.
I have Morgan but taking hits elsewhere or I probably would get rid.
Are sterling and Jesus going to rise again? I have exact money to get them in.
No, really unlikely
Posting again
DDG
kompany smalling morgan
Salah sterling willain kenedy milli
Jesus kane
Barnes lowton mariappa ,2ITB
1.Salah to erik -4
2.Willain +morgan/lowton> erik +fodder(-8)
No city coverage. I’m doing salah to sterling. Any of these other moves worth it?
A. Mahrez to sane (-4)
B. Maguire and vardy to swan def and Jesus (-8)
C. All of the above (-12)
I like B
Opinions would be much appreciated
A) Salah, Mahrez -> Sterling, Eriksen (-4)
B) Willian, Mahrez, Gross -> Sterling, Eriksen, Fernandinho (-8)
C) Gross, Mahrez -> Son, Sane (-4)
D) Gross, Willian, Mahrez -> Sane, Sterling, Lingard (-8)
E) Barnes, Salah, Mahrez -> Sterling, Eriksen, Rashford/Ayew (-8)
F) Salah, Mahrez, Gross -> Sterling, Eriksen, Son/Pogba (-8)
So many options
B i think. Or C if you like a gamble
Cheers think it will be B
Think b probs
My Team - 2FT / 0.1m ITB
DDG (Ryan)
Alonso Smalling Morgan (Long Lowton)
Salah Son Mahrez Willian (Gudmundsson)
Kane Vardy Murray
Rival's Team 1FT / 0.7m ITB / BB left
Fabianski Ryan
Kompany Simpson Chilwell Lowton Ogbonna
Sterling Son Mahrez Lingard Kenedy
Kane Jesus Aubameyang
Missed Jesus/Sterling price due to my uncertainty on what to do with my 2 FT. Also need differentials as am chasing rival (9 points behind) who has both Jesus & Sterling.
Thoughts on what to do as I am stumped?
The article is tempting me. On BB, do I take hits?
A) Long, Mili & Vardy - > Mawson, Pogba & JAyew (-8)
B) Or just: Long - > Naughton (free)
C) Something else - suggestions please
Currently:
Lloris Fab
Smalling Jones Dummett Chilwell Long
Sterling Salah Son Arni Mili
Jesus Kane Vardy
Thanks
My ML leader knows I’m going to captain Kane with my TC.
Surely I go Jesus? 40pts behind...
Jesus and Pray
They go well together 😉
Willian >> Pogba
Barnes >> J. Ayew
-8
Worth it?
Not worth the -8 imo
Will Sane start both games this dgw?
Good chance he does. Already had his rest
Guessing what Pep is going to do is a game on its own.
Hi guys, only have my BB left.. as well as 2 FT...
Ederson, Dubravka
VVD*, Smalling, *Tomkins, Yedlin, Monreal
Sane, Salah*, Zaha*, Arnie, Ritchie
Jesus, Auba, J Ayew*
Would you take a -8 hit to get a full 15 out for BB and get Kane in for Salah??
Who do you think gets the most minutes in the DGW:
A) Morgan
B) Christensen
Is Monreal nailed for the DGW after Kolasinac injury or better to swap him to Mawson?
so.. what we all doing with Salah?
Might get him in for week 38, but not this week.
