Gameweek 37 rolls on with four midweek fixtures of huge significance to Fantasy managers.

The two most captained and Triple Captained players are in action and both start.

Harry Kane heads into tonight’s contest off the back of another disappointing performance and a two-point return at The Hawthorns. He still carries the hopes of over a million managers who trusted him with the armband, with over 190,000 activating the Triple Captain chip on the Spurs striker.

Meanwhile, Gabriel Jesus is the other key man on show as champions Manchester City host Brighton and bid to shake off the malaise of Sunday’s 0-0 stalemate with Huddersfield Town.

Jesus has the backing of 277,000+ captaincies, with 75,000 of those using the Triple Captain chip on the Brazilian.

While that pair claim starts, the second most signed player for Gameweek 37 – Raheem Sterling – is missing as Pep Guardiola makes eight changes tonight.

The winger is excluded from Man City’s squad which will come as devastating news for the 264,000 who handed him the armband and, in particular, for the 69,000 managers who will now be resigned to just three points from their Triple Captain.

Elsewhere tonight, a much-changed Chelsea face Huddersfield at Stamford Bridge knowing that, should they fail to claim three points, the Blues they would surely have to surrender their bid for a top-four spot.

Meanwhile, Arsenal make the trip to a beleaguered Leicester City as they look to build on Sunday’s superb 5-0 victory over Burnley. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the key asset for the Gunners – he is already the most signed player after his 16-points against the Clarets made him Gameweek 37’s top scorer so far.

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

    It looks like Willian, Mahrez and Vardy (with TC on Kane) to Kenedy, Sterling and Jesus (TC) for a hit has cost me 24 points !

    Hope Smalling gets rested tomorrow....

      +1. Even when he blows a CS seems to score recently.

    101pts with DDG & Smalling to go...

    Should have captained Auba!

      If your main rival has him then yes.

        doesnt

        1. Krafty Werks
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          I am going to be around 12 - 16pts ahead of my main rival approx come end of play tomorrow, his 2 main differentials going into GW38 who could really do some damage are Salah and Aubameyang to my Son & Jesus therefore i will be looking at replicating these two most dangerous diff's to nullify their threat.

      Thank you

  6. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    So if Auba gets a bap, I'd have lost 38 points on a captaincy decision. fml 😆

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Need to switch to a game with no captains. Any suggestions?

        1. Fantastisk
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          Much better chance of winning there too, given about 600 people play.

          1. Deulofail
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 9 months ago

            Haha I like the difficulty of playing lots of people who knw at least as much about football as me. Not so much of a fan of the massive swings based on fine margins

    2. Richd
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      At least you didn’t captain sterling. It’s the hope that kills

  7. WATERMELONS
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone know the man u and west ham likely line ups for tomorrow?

  8. Robben Mee Blind
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    So i reckon Gross & Alonso to Sterling & Mawson for -8 has resulted in a 26 point swing. Nice!

    kane silva to auba salah -4

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      nope, unless *maybe* you have a free hit. silva & kane are both super super nailed on & may do well. salah seems tired.

      1. lespaul
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Silva is not nailed on

  10. BJC Rum

    3 out of my 4 tranfers have flopped for me this week: jesus de bruyne j.ayew. triple captain is on sanchez for tomorrow. Gotta good feeling

    1. STEP rOVERS

      Good luck! You will need it

    3. BJC Rum
      • 8 Years

      My vice captain alonso got 15. I hope Sanchez matches that or beats it haha

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

    Since GW4, i have been outside 5k only twice , and DGW37 will be 3rd time and the biggest fall this season. I so focking hate myself for this. Took a -12 and the transfers I did were good on paper , the players I bought in were expected to give some points ( hazard, mustafi) . This was my last chance to push for 2k finish but well it backfired pretty badly. Yeah finishing in top 10k will also be a good finish considering the number of people playing, but after being so consistent i bottled it in last 3-4 GW and that really hurts.

    PS : Not a brag, at this position for the first time, so had pressure of finishing the best I can , and hence it has affected a lot . Sorry if anyone feels bad , angry or any negative emotion after reading this , didn't mean to hurt you. Need to vent out and just want to feel better knowing that it's just a game and it happens

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

      Agreed

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      You did the right thing going for the 2k finish.

      Better to have aimed high and failed than to never have tried at all.

      1. badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Spot on.

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

        Yeah thats what I told myself it's now or never. Who knows when will I have this rank at the end next time ? So just went for it. Still hopeful of finishing somewhere around 5k

    3. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Did something similar. Been around 20k for agaes. Found myself 13k pre this DGW, so made 3 transfers (-4) hoping to get inside top10 k. Now sitting at 20k again. Monreal huge fail, and Lowton (0) coming on and not Dunk (9) to name one failour. Fourious.

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

        This games funny. You gotta have huge amount of luck too. Who would have thought that Monreal won't play even one match?

    4. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Well done for being so consistent all season.

      Unlucky with the -12, but Hazard & Mustafi weren't fantastic transfers if you'd watched how Arsenal and Chelsea have been playing of late. Mustafi in bad form & Hazard often does not translate to points.

      Hope you have a strigg finish.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        *strong

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

        This one time I backed stats over eye test and boy it did backfire big time ...

        Yeah hopefully I finish somewhere around 5k .

        Good luck to you and thanks for the reply

    5. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Sounds like you overthinked it.

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

        Definitely

    6. mosmof

      Better to live a life full of failures than a life full of regrets.

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

        Yeah I just thought this was it and went for it, maybe after few days I'll be happy that I tried to achieve something which was massive and failed.

        Thank you for the reply and good luck to you

    7. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah I'd be gutted if I felt I'd gone backwards from such a good start. Unlucky, keep your head up.

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

        Yeah next year is mine right? 😆

        Thanks for the reply and good luck

    8. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years

  12. tisza

    this time last year Kane(c) led me to 174pts. struggling to get half that this time

    1. Richd
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      It’s all relative

      1. Richd
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        It’s like when idiots aim for 2200 points. That’s relative

    3. TheTinman

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

    Kane has failed to record double digits since GW23. let that sink in

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      He still outscored the other main captain option. So annoying.

  17. Richd
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    Who do we have tomorrow ?

    DDG Pogba and Arnie for me.

    Should be a green no matter what

    1. Ramboros
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 9 months ago

      Rashford instead of Pogba and otherwise the same.

      1. Richd

  20. TrollMasterDeluxe
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 9 months ago

    What are the chances that following players will start on Sunday? Feel like some of them will get a rest because 3 games in a week is pretty much.I would like to have your input so I can prioritize some transfers.

    1. Alonso
    2. Willian
    3. Sane
    4. Lingard
    5. Alli
    6. Jesus

  21. Knowledgeable meerkat

    Jan Vertonghen, the unlikely hero of the dgw

    1. MTPockets
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Alonso's even better, because loads sold him.

    2. the snazzy viking

        • Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          114 -8 = 106 (bb37 strategy with Dubravka) 0 to play tomorrow

        • XabiAlonso
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          87(-8)

      6. Tommy J
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Could kick myself captaining Sterling but bringing in Sane and Cedric for Salah and Chilwell for a 4 point hit has paid off. !08 points(if Vert keeps his BP) and 3 to play(Smalling/Lingard/Arni) is not to shabby.....

      7. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 9 months ago

        Aubameyang scored again, nice to see him do well.

        Wonder what his price will be next season. I think a lot will opt for him over Kane.

        1. GS456
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          11 do we think?

        2. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 9 months ago

          Could very well be. Him and Firmino.

          1. FPL Scoop

            • 9 Years

          Be interesting to see what the new manager does with him and Lacazette.

      8. Colonel Shoe 肝池

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