Liverpool’s formation change earlier this season holds the key to whether Mohamed Salah (£13.2m) deserves a place in Wildcard squads for Double Gameweek 34.

After going six Premier League matches without a goal, the Egyptian finally found the net against Southampton in Blank Gameweek 33 – just in time to cause a dilemma for managers overhauling their teams.

Judging by the relief he showed at St Mary’s on Friday night, there is a case to be made that Salah could now return to his incredible points-scoring form from earlier in the campaign.

However, we have uncovered a few tactical factors that could have a bigger impact on his chances of impressing between Gameweek 34 and the end of the season.

    30 points behind ML leader.Both on our WC but he also has TC left.
    Do I go all out and get the likes of 3 Brighton players etc.
    Been slowly clawing back the gap but need to make a big final push I think?

    1. Men in green tights
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Both of you got BB

      1. OldBenKenobi
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I imagine he will be getting 2 Brighton defenders, so going triple Brighton probably won't make that much difference.

      1. OldBenKenobi
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Hmm

    3. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I think 30 points is still a small enough gap to play your own game. I'm 65 points and thinking about captaining Duffy :/

      1. OldBenKenobi
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Lol

  2. Your Man With The Hair
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    I have my WC and BB still available. Is there any reason why i wouldn't play my WC this week and BB GW 35?

    1. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      No reason.. That's what everyone is doing.

    2. Men in green tights
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      None at all

  3. Flippo_
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Which option?

    A) Pogba out/ Eriksen in
    B) Mane Out/ Eriksen in
    C) Sterling Out/ Son In
    D) Higuain Out/ Kane In
    E) Lacazette Out/ Kane in

    1. JohnBlack
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      D

    2. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Easily D

    3. Men in green tights
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      D

    4. The 5% Team
      • 7 Years

      D

    5. CAPTAIN_WALES
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      DDDDDDDDDDDDD

  4. DJfunkymonk
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    WC Team. BB in 35.
    3.5 itb

    Ryan
    Dunk, Duffy, Doherty, Laporte
    Mane, Eriksen, Jota
    Kane, Vardy, Jimenez

    Foster, Redmond, Valery, Doucoure

    W35 Vardy to Deeney
    W36 Jota/Doucoure to Salah/Sterling

    I'll probably change it at least once a day until pens down on Friday.

  5. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Play which two from these:

    A) TAA (CHE) - also playing Robbo
    B) Brooks (bha)
    C) H.Barnes (NEW)
    D) King (bha)

  6. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Lucas Moura is really tempting me. Had him for his brace against Man u and goal vs Fulham... Loved it

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Could be a huge captaincy punt if you're confident he would start against Hudd

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      The guy's is just way too inconsistent. Looks a world-beater one minute and a bumbling Knockeart the next.

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Hahaa true but if he doesn't start tonight then I can see him starting at weekend and possibly Brighton. Great enabler aswell, guess I'll wait and see if I have the gut

  7. cravencottage
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Which for WC:
    A) Eriksen
    B) KDB

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Eriksen

    2. Atom&Humber
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Both

  8. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Best option for BB35 without Wildcard?

    A) Lloris, Valery, Son, Mane, Deeney (-16)

    B) Foster, Bednarek, JWP, Hazard, Vardy (-12)

    C) Gunn, Valery, Son, Hazard, Deeney (-16)

    D) Foster, Valery, Mane, Deulofeu, Vardy (-12)

    Ryan - x
    Robbo - TAA - Luiz - Jonny - x
    Sterling - Fraser - Jota - x - x
    Kane - Jimenez - x

  9. The Colonel
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    A) Lloris, Laporte, Jota, Delf
    B) Ryan, Valery, Eriksen, Docoure

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      B because unlikely Delph starts.

      1. The Colonel
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Deulofeu, sorry...

  10. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone else fancying Etheridge over Ryan? Ryan’s cheaper but against bottom teams Cardiff have actually got a decent record.

    Playing away too, so may look to keep games tight and sneak a 1-0 win.

    Thinking of Etheridge and Gunn WC combo. Different from template.

  11. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Need a 4.3 defender that's not Brighton nor So'ton.
    What about Wolve's cheapo's - Jonny, Saïss , Bennett - any of those worthy a spot? Looking at minutes over latest GW's, looks like neither are 100% nailed.

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Mariappa? You'll struggle to find 100% nailed at that price tbf

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Based on recent stats neither is Doherty in a DGW. Just pick one and hope for the best. Not like they keep a lot of CS anyway.

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah, I'm strongly considering ditching Doherty, maybe going with Patricio instead

    3. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Montoya seems your best bet. 4.3m RB for BHA.

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Oh sorry, skipped that you said Brighton haah, how about Femenia?

      2. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Txs. Aready going with Duffy, but could downgrade ofc

  12. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    I wish Trippier was nailed 🙁

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Yup. But prefer Lloris tbh

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      KWP lurking for those easier home games.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Seems Lloris or no one

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Shame the first season goal threat of Vertonghen and Alderweireld dried up.

    3. DMil
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Same. Still considering Vertonghen as part of a spurs triple up on WC. Nice fixtures either side of the double so good chance for healthy returns.

    4. ㅤRising
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      If Aurier is out for long I will be tempted

  13. b91jh
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Duffy to Dunk or Valery to Bednarek to make funds?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Duffy to Montoya

    2. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Duffy > dunk

  14. Invincibles
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Help.

    Ryan foster
    Laporte TAA duffy valery kolas
    Son sterling mane Jota Camarasa
    Kane Jimenez Rashford

    Nothing in the bank.

    Is it worth doing
    Laporte, Rashford > doherty, deeney. Then Kane, Camarasa > Eriksen, Lacazette for bb35?

    A) yes
    B) no

    1. Cesc Pistols
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      A.

  15. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    watford fans. What's the consensus around Deulofeu?

    It's either him or Gray along Deeney right? seems like they don't play all 3 together.

    Although, hard to drop a fit Deulofeu at the moment isn't it?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Ankle injury at weekend. Wait for presser. Apparently Deeney has said he prefers it up top with Delu though

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Sorry. With gray*

    2. ㅤRising
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Deulofeu looks best as an impact sub, but who knows what Garcia will do

  16. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Latest effort on the WC draft.

    Ryan Foster
    Laporte TAA Montoya Bennett Bednarek
    Sterling Mane Son Jota WardProwse
    Kane Vardy Jimenez

    0.0 ITB (tears)

    Thoughts?

    1. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Vardy > Lacazette?

      1. Cesc Pistols
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        This or Kane ➡ Laca, unless you're happy doubling up on Spurs.

        1. Differential C (Mark)
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah, pretty happy to roll with em rest of season.

      2. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Im an eye test fanatic haha. Laca is a good option, and it is Arsenal, but vardy far excels in the eye test for me. Fancy him to do bits in the SGWs. Cheers!

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Don't like the Defense mate.
      If you're selling Vardy next gw, why not sell this gw & upgrade the Defense ??

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        WHo says im selling next week :). Might roll with him through those "hard" final games.

        1. Differential C (Mark)
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Agree, defense is a bit meh, but what can you do with how piss poor I am haha.
          WHat would you do, Amey?

          1. Amey
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            If you're keen to keep Vardy, the how about getting your club © ??

            Jpw+Bennett+Montoya >> Hojbjerg + Duffy + Jonny ??

            1. Differential C (Mark)
              • 10 Years
              6 years, 10 months ago

              You know, you may have a point there! Hojbjerg is a good option too, albeit overlooked.
              Yep, thats it, gonna get him.

        2. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Fine.
          Bennett dropped for Siass in fa cup, so watch out for that

          1. Differential C (Mark)
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            Thanks, that was a worry for me. WIl have to address that. The eye test says that Saiss has performed better than Bennett. Will have to tinker to get a more nailed defender in.

            Cheers, mate!

  17. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Who fares better? Lukaku v WHU or Aguero v cpl?

    Two factors I'm trying to work out are:

    1) Rest days/post UCL sluggishness - UTD have two rest days to City's four.

    2) Opposition - Away to Palace has not been a fruitful fixture for City in past seasons.

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      If a 1 week punt id go Lukaku but for dgw I prefer Aguero tbg

      1. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        I'm looking at one week punt lukaku then switching to Kun for the double

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Nah, I'd go for the better team on better form. United looked sluggish on recent form, were abysmal in both games vs Watford and Wolves.

      Plus, City are in the title race. Pep will NOT be taking chances.

  18. Scoop77
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Lots of people on here with Deeney (including me at present) but do we not think Watford (apart from Foster) might well be playing not to get injured / suspended now?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Be fine for next few. Final is after gw 38

    2. Cesc Pistols
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Nah. Final it's still very far off.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      No, not really. But could be mass rotation in GW 38 to protect those who will start in the final,

    4. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      The opposite. Players will put extra in to earn a starting place.

  19. Cesc Pistols
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    I think I've cracked a balanced WC team for the rest of the season:

    Foster, Ryan
    Robbo, Laporte, Doherty, Valery, Duffy
    Salah, Sterling, Jota, JWP, Hojbjerg
    Kane, Deeney, Murray

    Murray ➡ Jimenez next week and BB.

    Tear me apart now :).

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Like it 🙂

      1. Cesc Pistols
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks, mate!

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Not sure on Sterling, JWP and Hojberg personally.

      1. Cesc Pistols
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Sterling is merely a City cover as they're fighting for the title. Do you think he's a rotation risk?

        JWP is a great option in his price bracket. Hojbjerg is literally the only thing I could afford at his price, haha!

    3. The 5% Team
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      yes, like it

      only thing is a difficult matchup for your keepers in GW37 🙂

      1. Cesc Pistols
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        I noticed that, but will probably just use a FT.

        Thanks anyway!

  20. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Which combo?

    A) Ryan/Jota

    b) Lloris/Doucoure

    Forster 2nd keeper, also have Doherty and Jimenez

    1. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Cesc Pistols
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      A.

    3. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I like b

    4. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Lloris and Jota for me. What's team?

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        With Lloris/Doucoure it's:

        Lloris (Foster)
        Doherty, Duffy, Valery (TAA, Cathcart )
        Son, Doucoure, Camarasa Sterling (Mane)
        Kane, Aguero, Jimenez

    5. JohnCarewCarew
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Both good. Prefer A.

  21. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Did not realise Bertrand was 4.8 😯

  22. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on this slightly differential team?

    Foster Lloris
    Robo Dunk Montoya Doh Val
    Mane Jota Delu Eriksen Lucas M
    Aguero Jimenez Lukaku

    Hmmmmmm

    1. fenixri
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Going without Kane is too risky for me

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Probably same tbh. Probs Go Kane, JWP over Lukaku, Moura

  25. Eytexi

    No Wildcard. How does this look for DGW35 Bench Boost (-12)?

    Ryan, Lloris.
    TAA, Robbo, Holebas, Jonny, Chilwell.
    Sterling, Mané, Pogba, Deu, Jota.
    Kane, Jiminez, Wilson.

        Who is missing?

          Why? He has assets that everyone on wc is ignoring like Pogba, Wilson and Lei defence

          It's not who is missing - Pogba out of form, Jonny and Holebas (are they gonna start), 5 SGW and a -12. Gonna be way behind the ball imo.

            Cheers for the advice - criticism definetly justified when paired with an explanation haha.

              Don't mean to hate on you or anything. It's just tough sans WC. If I didn't have WC - I would stick just to getting the big hitters in and hopefully SGW players with good fixtures can match Holebas, Jonny, Deu and Jota.

                Haha don't worry, criticism and advice is what i was seeking 🙂

                If i do Hazard & Arnie to Deulofeu & Kane this week, what would you suggest for next week? See team below.

      Whats your team now and plan? Interested to see if anything else you could do

      1. Eytexi
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Currently got 2FT and:
        BORUC, Ryan.
        TAA, Robbo, CLYNE, Jonny, Chilwell.
        Sterling, Mané, Pogba, BARNES, HAZ.
        ARNIE, VARDY, Wilson.

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Hmmm. I'd do Boruc to Foster. Clyne to Valery. Barnes to JWP, Haz to Delu, Arni to Kane. Is that possible?

          1. Eytexi
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            Yep, all good ideas, but feel very vulnerable without Wolves attacking coverage.

            Arnie & Hazard to Kane & Deulofeu is pretty nailed down for this week so cheers for keeping that in there - it's all about next week's hits though.

          2. Tsparkes10
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            Maybe Wilson to Jimi on top of what I said could be an idea then. Maybe Barnes to Jota over JWP. Just not sure on prices?

            1. Eytexi
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 10 months ago

              Neither of those affordable paired with your other suggestions unfortunately.

              1. Tsparkes10
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 10 months ago

                Difficult to say then tbh without knowing prices 🙁

                1. Eytexi
                  • 7 Years
                  6 years, 10 months ago

                  I'll have nothing in the bank after this weeks moves. Selling prices of those I'm considering ditching are: Boruc (4.0), Clyne (4.4), Chilwell (5.0), Barnes (5.5), Vardy (9.0), Pogba (8.7).

      2. Eytexi
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Plan is Hazard & Arnie to Deulofeu & Kane this week, then the other four moves next week. Any advice appreciated. Cheers!

      Pogba > Son for the dgw

      1. Eytexi
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        For another hit?

  26. FPL_Hazards

    Any early captain shouts for GW35?

    Nobody standing out for me!

    1. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Kane or Jimenez

    2. BigBillyBass
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Deeney

    3. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      jiminez

    4. jtreble
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      RMT top 5:
      - Aguero
      - Sterling
      - Kane
      - Jimenez
      - Aubameyang

  27. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Captain:

    A) Kane (HUD)
    B) Duffy (BOU, CAR)

    1. BigBillyBass
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Is this a serious question?

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        It is, have been burned many times by Kane in 'easy' home games in the past.

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Kane, unless Poch mentions anything about Llorente, of course.

    3. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      haha, tell you what I'm quite tempted by Duffy as well mate

      only reason I'm probably going to go Kane is cause I'm going the game lol

    4. Pukki Party
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Kane, more likely he gets 3 goals than Duffy to get 3 clean sheets.

      1. Pumpkinhead
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Obviously. Duffy is only playing in 2 games.

  28. fenixri

    Updated WC team. What you think?

    Ryan - Foster
    Laporte - TAA - Doherty - Montoya - Bednarek
    Salah - Sterling - Eriksen - JWP - Hojbjerg
    Kane - Jimenez - Deeney

    Am I right in thinking I saw a post a few days ago saying to sell Aguero now on wildcard and you should be able to buy him back for 11.7 on Friday?

    1. FPL_Hazards
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      He’s dropping £0.1m tonight anyway

      1. Pukki Party
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Predictions way off with wildcards active. If he starts today he might not drop at all. You'll never know

  30. Neetan

    Crazy going without a Liverpool attacker for 34 & 35?

    Have Robbo & TAA as coverage...

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Not crazy and Robbo and TAA have attacking threat.

    2. Invincibles
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Get mane for 36 you’ll be fine.
