Holly from Fantasy Football Community looks at some of the key numbers from our Members Area over the last four Gameweeks.


The final Gameweek of the season is here and I’m taking a look at the underlying statistics from the last four Gameweeks, in a bid to sort out those transfer and Free Hit dilemmas going into Gameweek 38.

Note that some players will have seen more minutes than others over this period.


Holly, the founder of FPL Community, has two top 10k finishes in five FPL seasons, is a regular guest on the FPL Show and recent addition to the Scoutcast line-up.

    Salah-Bruno-KDB-Pulisic-Foden
    Jesus-Rashford (Greenwood)

    2FT 0.3 ITB

    A) Foden, Doherty to DSilva, Pieters
    B) Bruno, Jesus to DSilva, Kane
    C) Bruno, Foden, Doherty to Sterling, Pieters and a 4.3 fodder -4
    D) Bruno, Rashford, Jesus to Sterling, Kane, Nketiah -4

    2. dbeck
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      i;m doing A with enough change to hit vardy to kane. I dont think you should remove Jesus

      B is nice

    Thoughts on non-FH team

    Pope
    Trent Doherty Wan-Bissaka
    Salah Sterling(C) Pulisic D.Silva
    Ings Aubameyang Greenwood

    Armstrong Egan Basham

    Currently on -4 DeBruyne/Fernandes out for Sterling(C) Silva... -8 pushing it? Tempted by Wan-B to Walker for a final day pint??

    What is more likely?

    A) Digne attacking return vs Bournemouth
    B) Norwich score vs Man City

    1. SH@KTIMAAN

      A

      Can you provide other options?

  4. RobinKerr1987
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A. Fernandes to Son
    B. Vardy to Kane

    Team is as follows with 1 free trade and 1.9m ITB)

    Ederson
    TAA, Aurier, Tarkowski
    Salah, Fernandes, Martial, Dilva (C), Foden
    Ings, Vardy

    Bench: Greenwood, Doherty, Saiss (Martin)

    Didnt know Lampard is whiner.

    So he know how many decibels celebrating a goal should be when you have already won the league.

    I remember when he won away at Spurs he jumped before Mou and shouted to fans few times.

    1. Zilla
      • 8 Years

      Derby and Leeds last season

      1. FFSbet.com
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Dont know what happened but dont whine when someone is doing what you were doing.

        Lost respect,probably a bad loser

        1. Zilla
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Agree

  6. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Is Antonio really a good choice this week ? Surely villa will be very defensive unless Watford are beating Arsenal which is unlikely

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Assuming he is playing upfront and on pens then he is great at the price

      Yes villa are motivated but it’s still villa.

      If WestHam score early then Villa will have to throw people forward leaving gaps

  7. Gunners in Haaland
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Pick one:

    A) Bruno -> Dilva (have Foden and Mahrez)
    B) Bruno/AWB -> Dilva/Robertson -4 (have TAA and Martial)

    1. Gazza2000

    2FTs, 0.0itb, my TC vs. rival's FH (I lead by 31 points)

    1) Vardy, Bruno > Kane, Dilva (TC Kane)
    2) Vardy, Doherty > Kane, Pieters (TC Kane)
    3) Vardy, Pulisic, KDB > Ings, Dilva, Sterling (-4 - TC Raz)

    Pope (3.9)
    TAA, Doherty, Aurier (Saiss, Holgate)
    Salah, Pulisic, Bruno, KDB (Douglas Luiz)
    Vardy, Jimenez, Greenwood

  9. Rex Lapis
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Play Greenwood or Foden?

    1. Gunners in Haaland
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Greenwood

    2. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Greenwood

  10. drughi
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Best option of these ?

    A. Tarkowski, Martial and Jesus (stephens first on bench)
    B. TAA, Foden and Kane (lamptey first on bench)

    Pope
    ## Pieters Robertson
    ## Salah Sterling(C) Silva Antonio
    ## Ings

  11. Postman Ty
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling's last 4 scores: 10, 21, 1, 17. Anyone want to guess the one week I had him on FH?

    1. ameisin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm guessing the same week as me.

    2. MEGPAL

      I read this a few hours ago I swear.

      1. Postman Ty
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Probably been a somewhat common occurrence.

    Who to lose for Dilva? Thank you!

    A) Antonio
    B) Pulisic
    C) Neither

    1. Garth Marenghi
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. The Reptile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Neither - I'm thinking of Bruno to Dilva. It was meant to be Pulisic for the exact money but he played too well last night..

    Hi guys, here is my current scenario -

    I currently have Doherty, Bruno and Rashford in my team with 1FT, 0.5m ITB available.

    Which of the following would you suggest -

    A. Doherty => VVD for free

    B. Doherty => to any defender who doesn’t play for Man C or Burnley (as I’m already maxed out) for free

    C. Bruno + Rashford => Antonio + Kane (would also mean that I play Doherty in my starting XI) for a -4 point hit.

    Thanks

    1. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B-Tarkowski

      1. Vazza
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        The caveat is that he has to be a non Burnley defender

        1. cravencottage
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Sorry, I blew past that. Then I would do A

  14. JELLYFISH
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    FH team ... G2g?

    Pope
    TAA Aurier Pieters
    Salah Sterling Dilva Bruno Pulisic

    1. toerag
      • 16 Years

      Bruno to mahrez?

      1. JELLYFISH
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I may do that if team news suggests Mahrez may start

  15. dee_top
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Choose one from each for FH 38+:
    A) Kane
    B) Auba

    1) KDB
    2) Mahrez

    1. Connor Wickham

  16. wattalowz

    Mad to go without Salah on FH?

    Feel like Kane Auba Sterling KDB are all better options.

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not a bad idea at all.

    2. Connor Wickham
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Its between Salah and Auba for last big hitter in my team. Favouring Salah atm but no real conviction.

    3. Geraaaard
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A. It's vvd VS Newcastle!! Last night he should have one goal from a free header.

  19. Geraaaard
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Suggest me a free hit team.
    My current selection for next week is as follow (also have bench boost still to play)

    - Martinez Mcarthy
    - TAA, Bardsley, Pieters, Lamptey,

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      That’s a brave call if you are intending to play no attackers. Could work mind you!

      1. Geraaaard
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Lol. Accidentally pressed post button.

        1. Geraaaard
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Oh no. Just realized that.

  21. Charan77

    Hi

    Current gw38 team

    Pope
    TAA, Doherty, Pieters
    Salah (v), KDB (c), Fernandes, Saka
    Ings, Greenwood, Aubameyang

    Martin, Dendoncker, AWB, Jack-Robinson

    FH & TC left (don't ask).

    0.4itb

    What would you do?

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure if you can FH and TC in the same GW..

  22. Vazza
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Are we really expecting Liverpool to perform well against Newcastle given their grand party last night?

    1. Geraaaard
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Against Newcastle and trying to catch golden boot.

    2. Charan77
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You can only use one chip.

      So not sure which one.

      If I use the FH I was thinking to do the following:

      AWB, Jack-Robinson to Williams, branthwaite
      Saka to Sterling (c)
      Auba to Rodriguez

      Your thoughts please

      1. Vazza
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Can you list all the players from your FH team so we can analyse it correctly

        1. Charan77
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Here you go

          Pope
          TAA, Doherty, Pieters
          Salah (v), KDB, Fernandes, Sterling (c)
          Ings, Greenwood, Rodriguez

          Martin, Dendoncker, branthwaite, williams

          1. Vazza
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            It’s a good team. I would remove Doherty as he has a difficult fixture against Chelsea. Otherwise, it all looks ok.

            1. Charan77
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Currently top of ml by 13 points.

              All 3 under me have saiss

              1. Vazza
                • 6 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                You might as well keep Doherty if you’re sure that all your rivals will play a wolves defender..

                1. Charan77
                  • 9 Years

    1. Geraaaard

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This would normally be the best move, but if others have TC Sterling, how is he supposed to catch them, even in theory with good luck?

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      They will compete with each other and TC Sterling. You have to show their teams if you want real help.

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      get Kane and cap him

  25. Georgeyboy33
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Pick one...

    A) Salah to Sterling
    B) Bruno, Wood -> Sterling, Greenwood (-4)
    C) something else entirely!

    Team:
    Pope
    Tark, AWB, Boly
    Salah Mahrez Dilva Martial Bruno

    Any thoughts on FH team. 18 points up in mini league but rival has TC.
    Pope
    TAA, Aurier, Pieters
    KDB, Sterling (vc), D Silva (c), Antonio, Richarlison,
    Kane, Greenwood

    Dumped TAA in GW35 after having him the whole season.
    After last nights game, is it madness to go without him for GW38?

    Not keen to buy him back at the inflated price but also can't be burned again....

  29. Klaren
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A) Pulisic to DSilva
    B) Saiss to Mendy

    A has higher ceiling but B feels like an automatic 4-5 additional points so leaning towards B at the moment. Only other City player is Sterling which is a worry though.
