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.

      I did Cunha, but i like A

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I didB, I like B.

    3. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I'm looking at A.

    4. Evasivo
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      B imo

  2. C_G
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    play one:

    Murphy

    Asensio

    or take a -4 and bring Elanga/Schade in?

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Don't mind C with the last two GWs in mind. Murphy only likely to get 60 and Villa's fixtures not great

  3. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Anyone going Elanga over KDB? Leicester are proper terrible. A KDB blank would be bad with minutes concerns in 37

    1. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Considering it, although for me KDB would be for a hit which makes it even more risky.

      Schade a shout too

    Keep saka or sell?

  5. Henning

    Need some help here what to do.
    14 p ahead in mini League
    Should i do
    1 Mateta to Wissa
    2 Isak and Savinho to Wissa and Kdb -4(if we get news Kdb starts)

    my front players:
    Salah Mbuemo Bowen Savinho Rogers
    Isak Marmoush Mateta.

    His:
    Salah Mbuemo Rogers Eze Murphy

  6. Meme2011

    Is getting Bowen or Elanga in worth a -4?!

    1. Lecky Legs FC
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      depends who is going out

      1. Meme2011
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Sarr

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON

    Reposting…On a BB. OR 160K. 1 FT 0.4 ITB
    Raya Verbruggen
    Gvardiol O'Brien Ait Nouri Bradley Burn
    Sarr Salah Mbuembo Saka Murphy
    Isak Mateta Marmoush.

    I know perhaps not the best team to BB with but I'll go ahead now, what can I do to make it better? Don't mind a -4
    Mateta > Wissa + Murphy > Elanga for -4? Any other suggestions?

    A) Estupinan

      1. stumanchuu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        Same and going B, definitely not C

      2. Bruno Commando
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Currently on A but not convinced in either. Feels like it's gonna be the same.

    2. Jambot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Don’t do C

  12. ball c
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on keeping or selling Isak if chasing in ML’s.
    Need to chase 30 points.. rivals have wood, wissa.
    Should I bring in Cunha for isak?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Could work

    2. DRINKWINE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      15 points behind here and considering same movement here, but still doubting to pull the trigger

    3. Dave2008
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Similar situation except Im 50 behind so not as much a chance as you to catch or fall further behind.

      Which ones would you choose as a single transfer in and out to get more differentials in my mini league? (50 points behind so have to pull a rabbit out of my hat…Haaland C??? KDB???
      IN
      1 KDB
      2 Wissa
      3 Schade
      4 Watkins

      Out
      A Salah
      B Mateta
      C Rogers
      D Isaak

      Transfers and a -4
      A Rogers and Salah to KDB and Mbeumo
      B Salah and Isaak to Mbeumo and Haaland
      C Isaak and Rogers to Wissa and Mbeumo
      D Isaak and Rogers to Wissa and KDB

  13. KeanosMagic

    Protecting a lead in a tight league.

    My rival is likely to play Wan Bissaka and Munoz.

    At the moment I'm playing Milenkovic and Sessegnon and benching Munoz.

    Should I play safe and start Munoz to block my rival? Or just trust trust my picks are decent for this game week?

    1. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Those are great pick this week, play Mile and Sess

    2. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I'd play your own game. Think Munoz concedes away to Spurs and so a 15 pointer unlikely IMO

  14. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Morning fellas. KDB rise priced me out of doing Rogers>KDB (-4), so will need to go with this...good to go? OR 5,600

    Verbruggen
    Gvardiol, Mitchell, Neco
    Salah, Rogers, Mbeumo(c), Bowen
    Isak, Marmoush, Wissa

    Raya, Murphy, Konsa, Saliba
    0ft, 3.5itb

    Leading my rival by 60pts but he will probably bring KDB and captain him

    1. Oasthouse FC
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Mate, I’ve got the virtually the same rank, and the same team and was thinking of a that same move.

      I can still afford the move but don’t think I’ll got for it.

      Mainly as I think rogers against spurs and Man U (either side of their final) could cancel out any gains you get from KDB, especially if he then gets minutes managed in the coming weeks.

      The only thing that might me rethink is if we get a leak that marmoush is benched, as I only have him and Gvardiol from city

  15. Jokesy87
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Lead cash league by about 30 points

    Start:
    Areola or Raya
    Livramento or Saliba or Kerkez

    Current Team:
    Areola
    Gvardiol Munoz Livramento
    KDB Salah Mbuemo rogers
    Marmoush Wissa Isak
    Bench: Raya Murphy Saliba Kerkez

    1. Bobby_Baggio
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Areola
      Saliba

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Areola and Kerkez

  16. DavvaMC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Not sure if I should hold onto Saka or attack with the below moves?

    A. Saka > KDB
    B. Savinho > Elanga or Bowen

    This is my current team.

    Martinez
    Konsa / Munoz / Gvardiol
    Mbuemo / Savinho / Salah / Saka
    Marmoush / Isak / Wissa

    Raya | Trossard | Konate | Kerkez

    Thanks

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      B Bowen

      1. DavvaMC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Can afford that I can afford the Elanga, move. WOuld need to sell Saka to free up funds.

  17. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Play Saka or Sarr?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Or let’s say bench one of Saka, Roger’s and Sarr

      1. DRINKWINE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Probably Saka bench for me

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          His form has been bad, but on pens against a Liverpool playing youngsters with nothing to play for, and likely to start. Feels a bit hard to bench. Sarr a better fixture, but also not the best form lately.

          1. DRINKWINE
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 1 month ago

            If you believe in a weakened Liverpool line up then I hear you, still think Liverpool will play a strong team vs Arsenal at home though. Nevertheless, it is hard to drop Saka for sure, I am having same issue with dropping Salah

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Saka only just

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        It’s close

  18. Bobby_Baggio
    • 15 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Morning all. 3FT and 2.6m ITB. Have AM transfer to make too - currently on Moyes.

    Areola
    Munoz - Gvardiol - Saliba
    Salah - Murphy - Mbeumo - Sarr
    Marmoush - Isak - Mateta

    (Raya) - Rogers - Konsa - Livra

    1) Mateta > Wissa
    2) Mateta > Cunha
    3) Sarr > Bowen
    4) Salah > KDB
    5) Mateta + Sarr > KDB + Evanilson

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      1

    2. DRINKWINE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Chasing or leading? Still think 1 probably is the most sensible

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 15 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Chasing

        1. DRINKWINE
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Still Wissa edges it for me, but Murphy --> Bowen could also be a good play

  19. DRINKWINE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Madness to bench Salah or Isak for Bowen or Cunha?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Bench Isak

      1. DRINKWINE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        I have Bowen (currently on the bench) but Cunha would required using my FT, so if benching Isak I would be playing 3-5-2... so basically Bowen in for Isak, would you do that then?

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Yes, between Isak and Bowen

  20. ididnt
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Which move for free.

    A. Livra > RAN
    B. Livra > Sess
    C. Livra > Milenkovic
    D. Sarr > Elanga

    1. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      D.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      C

  21. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Locking in right now but if Marmoush is benched I will move Rogers in

    Areola
    Gvardiol Munoz Burn
    Salah KDB Mbeumo(c) Sarr
    Isak Marmoush Wissa

    Raya Rogers Konsa Kiwior

  22. Elijah's Wood
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Still have TC left to play. Which is the best option?

    GW36:
    A) KDB (sou)
    B) Haaland (sou)

    GW37:
    A) Palmer (MUN)
    B) City (BOU)

    GW38:
    A) city (full)
    B) Saka (sou)

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Saka 38

    2. boroie
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Saka

  23. ShaunGoater123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Salah & marmoush > gibbs-white & haaland?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      nah

    2. DRINKWINE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      No

  24. Jullepuu
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    If we get a leak that Marmoush is benched, does Marmoush to Wissa make more sense than Mateta to Wissa?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      yes

  25. ididnt
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    I have a front three of Marmoush, Wissa and Isak. I also have kdb for City cover.

    Is Marmoush > Wood or Cunha the move to make or should I do Sarr > Elanga for Forest cover.

    1. boroie
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I’d do Sarr to Elanga

    2. Conners
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Marmoush to Wood or Cuhna if we hear he's benched, otherwise I'd just keep and play Sarr.

      1. ididnt
        • 14 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Or Livra > Sees, RAN or Neco Williams

        1. Conners
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          I'd prioritise the attacker transfer if Marmoush is benched.

          RAN looks a good option otherwise.
