Haaland, Foden, Stones: The latest FPL team news

Pep Guardiola and Roberto De Zerbi are facing the media today ahead of their sides’ Gameweek 34 clash on Thursday.

The key updates are summarised below.

MANCHESTER CITY

Erling Haaland will not be fit for Thursday’s clash at the Amex.

The Norwegian, who came off in the UEFA Champions League tie against Real Madrid a week ago, has been suffering from muscular “niggles”.

He then sat out the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea at the weekend.

Guardiola didn’t offer a timeline on Haaland but reiterated that he didn’t think it was a serious injury.

“I’m not concerned, I know it’s not a big issue but he’s not allowed for this game.” – Pep Guardiola

The good news from the City camp is that Phil Foden and John Stones are available.

Foden was absent from training on Tuesday, raising concerns.

Stones, meanwhile, had come off at half-time on Saturday but was then sighted on the grass earlier this week.

“Erling is not ready for tomorrow, the other two, they are ready.” – Pep Guardiola

BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION

Pervis Estupinan will be out for the rest of the season after sustaining a calf injury in Gameweek 33.

Billy Gilmour (knee) and James Milner (muscle) are thought to be nearing comebacks but won’t recover for the visit of Manchester City.

Adam Webster (muscle) and Julio Enciso (unknown) could be available for selection. They face a late fitness test ahead of Thursday’s match.

Evan Ferguson (ankle) and Tariq Lamptey (unknown) both remain out.

Jack Hinshelwood (foot), Solly March (knee) and Kauro Mitoma (back) are unlikely to feature again this season.

“The situation is more or less [the same as] the last game. Only one, Adam Webster, can be available to play. I don’t know Julio, tomorrow we will see about Julio Enciso.

“Gilmour is not available. Tariq, no. James Milner, no. Jack Hinshelwood, no. Mitoma, no. March, no. Ferguson, no.

“Pervis, no. He’s finished the season.” – Roberto De Zerbi

      Horror show from Spurs after destroying Villa the week before. 3 Spurs got jack.

      West Ham v Villa looked ripe for goals. 1-1 with 2 obsure scorers.

      Toney 90 min blank at leaky Burnley. Regullion freak sending off.

      Well done to all the Captain Hindsights spotting that, particularly those that had 3 or less players without FH.

        You didn't need foresight to know that filling up on players from just four matches presented less opportunity for points than having thirteen matches. I totally agree, those without a FH got lucky with some fairly freak results and again with FH34 in skipping some of the highly owned single players. I'd also add that there were a few injuries that probably converted the non-FH29 into FH29 for fear of not having enough players. But the ceiling for 34 was always likely to be higher - albeit that few would have banked on the difference being so stark.

      Hey Tony! Yeah a good chance of that. There's also the possibility of Cunha being fit but I wonder if O'Neil will divvy up the minutes between him and Hwang with them both being recently back from muscle injuries. Sarabia is playing through groin pain too so even if RAN doesn't start there, he might end up in the front three.

        Based on GON quotes on Cunha, sounded more like fit enough to make the squad rather than starting in the 11 so makes sense for him to come on for any of Sarabia/Hwang/RAN depending on their fitness.

    Every team should have Watkins, Palmer, and Haaland imo as it’s the race for the golden boot. You could stretch to Solanke too.

    Pickford going to be a monster for the rest of the season too because they are flirting with relegation.

          One last comment on FH29 - coz it's seriously ancient history - it makes no difference who / how players score points. A brace is a brace - those two flukes from White yesterday still got me 27 points.

          The fact they did not, is just the game.

      FH29 wasn't just about the GW itself. It was about not having to bring in all these players prior to the GW and also not being left with them either. I have 93 non FH and am more than happy with this so far.

        Yes my FH 29 was more about the GWs around it than the week as it's self Worked well in the lead up to the FH as well (5 green arrows from 126 yo 30k) but ended up taking out Foden before his 20 pointer with building for DGW34 in mind which stalled my progess. Think those that were somehow able to negotiate GW29-GW33 without using chips got it right but I was never in a position to do that

      I'm thinking of going without. Plenty of others have good GW35 fixtures, I'd bench him for his away fixtures in GW36 and GW38 (he's got just one assist since GW6 in those), and his DGW37 also includes an away fixtures where he will probably only score a couple of points as well.
