In his latest article, two-time Indian Fantasy Premier League (FPL) champion Lateriser debates which attacking players he should buy and sell when using two free transfers in Gameweek 36.

Lateriser final four Gameweeks

From a decision perspective, it’s all a bit in the air for me right now and that does feel odd. Generally speaking, I am fairly decisive but I feel like these calls might be made in the final minutes before the deadline.

I hope that writing this article and talking to you, plus myself, will help bring clarity to these choices.

To assess things, let’s look at things from an odds perspective, using the help of Solio Analytics and Rob T.

These 20 teams are sorted by projected goals until the end of the season.

    Neale predicting Murphy to be benched. Done a great job predicting line ups this season too

    Planning to use BB so can't just bench, who would you bring in for a -4?

    A.) Elanga (Lei H, Whu A)
    B.) Bowen (Mun A, Nfo H)
    C.) Schade (Ips A, Ful H)
    D.) A different midfielder worth 9.6m or less
    E.) Don't take a hit, hope Murphy starts and gets 55-65 mins

    I would be very surprised if Robot doesn't get decent minutes today. He is the biggest superstar at City and will be desperate to play in the final. While Pep may not pander to him I just think he'll want to keep him happy and therefore will want minutes in his legs before Palace. I await leaks with baited breath.
