FPL General’s Gameweek 35 team reveal + transfer plans

With the next Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline almost upon us, we’re hearing from our panel of guest writers. Here, three-time top 500 finisher FPL General talks through his Gameweek 35 team.

FPL General reveals his first draft for 2024/25 1

Gameweek 34 Review

The Free Hit was solid, if not spectacular. I could’ve done without the Jose Sa (£4.4m) penalty save and Ryan Sessegnon (£4.2m) scoring a late winner, but a green arrow is a green arrow! 

The troops went from 28k to 25k. I was having a look back on the season earlier today and I’ve barely moved in rank over the past few months. I was 25k in Gameweek 16, 24k in Gameweek 26, and now we’re back in the same spot.

A top 50k finish and I’m satisfied with the campaign, but I’d like to make a little push towards the top 10k for these final four Gameweeks.

I was quite happy to learn that there won’t be any more blanks or doubles for the rest of the season. It suits me having already used all the chips. As an old-fashioned, traditional FPL manager, four regular Gameweeks is right up my street.

    Thanks

      B of those two, probably. But rolling also not a bad move

      B or C, I would say. Depends if the FT could be better used in the coming weeks.

    Bench One:

    A) Trossard
    B) Eze
    C) Evanilson

    I do feel Bournemouth will attack and Evanilson has good chance to get points but same can be said of the other two. Tricky one

      Raya and Tripps for me.

      Currently stuck between benching Sarr and Mateta as well… on the former at the moment

        Tripps seeming popular at least. Undecided on Raya. He's probably the safe/insurance pick.

        Imagine Mateta would do more damage if I benched, but the matchup suits Sarr a tad more...

    Henderson... J.Murphy Murilo Livramento
    1 FT... 0.3 ITB

      So probably Timber to Collins, Mateta to Watkins or bench Timber for Livramento

    Martinez - Savinho Kiwior AWB

    Aside from any City leaks, good to stick with this? Half tempted to sell Savinho for Bowen (-4) and bench Sarr, but not sure if it pays off, Sav might get the Southampton game.
