Paul Our post-Gameweek members article assessing some of the top performers arrives once again this evening.
With many Fantasy managers now looking to wield Wildcards, we cast an eye over in-form and in-demand attackers and also assess some of the stand-out assets in defence ahead of Friday evening’s deadline.
A. Gabriel Alli Benaloune
OR
B. Monreal Pedro Huth

I just don't trust what Jonty says on the Scoutcast.
'I know that Monreal or another Arsenal defender will actually be the higher scorer' (over Sanchez) sounds crazy. Maybe one of them will be, and obviously it's hard to nail which one that will be, but a Sanchez goal in each and some bonus and it's him that scores highest.
That comment just sounds like a sneaky way to get people to captain a defender and I can't see that as a good decision
He's just going off the previous 2 DGWs and Sanchez struggling in FPL terms.
Ah I know he's been poor, and I know if I was on an hour long talk show I'd say stuff I wouldn't stick to, but still.
I guess he wasn't recommending it as he says he'll go Sanchez but I'd prefer he made a strong call instead of hedging like that
Might have passed you in HoF 😯
I've had a few disappointing weeks 🙁
Still beating you this season 😉
Don't stuff up your WC 😛
It's coming down to how and how much to prioritize:
Alli vs Sanchez
Cech vs Pickford
And then Spurs vs Chelsea vs Arsenal defence
Not sure, a clean sheet and Sanchez blank isn't that implausible.
Though I agree that the phrasing is suspect.
Well Sanchez will get that one CS point too 😉
Sanchez seems to me so much better as a captaincy prospect that I don't think leaving the door open for a potential CS+goal from one of the Arsenal defenders is necessary
Also I don't mean to say that I trust nothing Jonty says 🙂
didnt listen to it, but could see that being the case. Not stopping me from (c) sanchez though in anyway, only because of what is possible
I can't cap Sanchez because I am chasing a ML leader that will do it for sure so in my case I need a differential. It's all or nothing for me. But I am struggling to find a better option than Sanchez... i am afraid Gabbi will be the new Negredo fiasco so... I might go with a defender...
Try some single gameweek player? Chelsea and Man City's fixtures are nice...
yeah, im afraid of the same when it comes to gabbi. You could always go with a single gw player with a good fixture. Not too sure the dgw defenders have the greatest fixtures to warrant an armband but that could be precisely why it may pay off handsomely! goodluck
i captained bailly last week for the double and he was my highest scoring player. i wsa shouting "SLOWER" at the tv as he inched off the pitch
my def caps;
Alonso (2 times - 14 points - average 7 points)
Walker (1 times - 16 points - average 16 points)
Coleman (1 times - 12 points - average 12 points)
Bailly (1 times - 24 points - average 24 points)
haha I'm impressed! Not convinced but impressed 😀
cs are often easier to predict than the goal scorers is my thinking
Well it does look like it's working
didnt know Josh King had no hands
😀
glovely
lolz wonder how much scrolling this has caused. Fair play lad.
Oviedo drop in price! 😮
Did anyone else had Oviedo in this world other than me.... 😳
*tumbleweed*
Would you get Monreal or Kosc if money is not a problem? Why?
Kosc is likely to break down with 4 games in a short time frame.
this
Kosc I think. BPs potential and goal threat.
Thoughts on this? Too drastic?
Valencia+Alli+Lukaku+Benteke -> Monreal+Hazard+Jesus+Gabbiadini (-12)
Team is:
De Gea / Pickford
Alonso / xxxx / Yoshida / Chambers / Holgate
Sanchez / xxxx / Eriksen / Zaha / JWP
Kane / xxxx / xxxx
Thanks for any thoughts in advance
I think it's too drastic buddy. Do you have a BB left?
Yep
Then I'd be looking at removing Chambers as part of any reshuffle.
Does Luka to Jesus and Alli to Hazard for -4pts works?
Not sure if Benteke-Valencia to Gabbi-Monreal is worth -8pts
Yes, that works and looks more enticing with less points spent.
Only downside is I'd have to start Benteke(mci) who hasn't scored against City in the 9 times he's faced them.
Team would look like:
DDG(ars)
Alonso(MID) Valencia(ars) Yoshida(liv/ARS)
Sanchez(MUN/sot) Eriksen(whm) Hazard(MID) JWP(liv/ARS)
Kane(whm) Jesus(CPL) Benteke(mci)
-4
Monreal or Vert?
Vertonghen
Vert
Monreal
Lol. See below. I'm torn too.
Simple one this:
1. Costa + Capoue
2. Alli + Anichebe
Cheers in advance
A
1
1
Take it the team will already have Eriksen and Hazard?
Regardless I prefer 2
yeah it will
cheers
Also think the extra 1 million with 2 can be better used to upgrade your defence (depending on your TV)
To enable some other moves, would you do:
A) Abel Hernandez to Anichebe
B) Valencia to 4.7m defender
b
B
B
A) ..... Hernandez doesnt look to be playing much. may aswell go someone that plays with a dgw.. even if it is sunderland
This is a good point. I was focused on the player being brought in, not the player departing.
Thanks all...
Any of those moves is unlikely to backfire, can go for any of them
Hey lads, how is this team looking?
DDG
Alonso Koscielny Yoshida
Sanchez Alli Hazard Sane
Kane Jesus Gabbi
Jaku King Davies Wasi
very nice. I myself prefer king over gabbi, even with the two games.. but im probably wrong. Goodluck!
Sane -> King ?
Im torn as well
Wow really? Took a hit to bring him in. I reckon King wont go crazy, maybe a goal? Gabbi on the other hand is rested and might play both games
@Ophelia
Well i was thinking about taking a hit for gabbi aswell because of the possibilities, it definitely could pay off handsomely. Gabbi is well rested only because his comeback from injury.. Southampton arent exactly big scorers is my thinking and they are playing two tough teams who have something to play for
Yep, you do have a valid point there, 2 tough teams up ahead, not particularly the best defences, but tough fixtures indeed
Who's starting with Morgan out? Cheers
Benalounane I think
Morgan is not far off and expected to be back this weekend.
stuck. 1FT, 0.4 itb
Jakupovic
Yoshi Macguire Mawson
Sanchez(C) Eriksen Sane King
Kane Lukaku Jesus
Callabero Firmino Holgate Chambers
a) Lukaku/Firmino/Chambers > Gabbi/Hazard/Monreal (probably would bench gabb) (-8)
b) Lukaku/Firmino/Chambers> Llorente/Hazard/Monreal (bench llorente and play next gw v sund via bench boost) (-8)
c) Firmino > Pedro
d) Firmino/chambers > Pedro/ Monreal (-4)
e) Firmino/lukaku > Hazard/gabby
f) save or something else
e is what everyone else is doing
Monreal or Vertonghen for gw36?
I have Cech in goal. Spread the risk with Vertonghen or keep Monreal and swap after DGW??
i hate planning a transfer though :/
Verts due a goal, monreals just scored one, spurs in form, arsenal are not.. what to do, what to do..
Hey Dingo, I think we're squaring up in the frequent posters' cup this week.
Ohh nice. Have you got a link. I've been over-posting rmt this week so it's probably deserved haha
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2017/04/13/frequent-poster-cup-ii-update/?hc_page=1#hc_comment_15591357
I'm guessing you're wildcarding this week?
Yep. WC active.
Good luck!
Thanks. I'm hoping I can give you a good game. I'm interested to see how your wildcard turns out.
Since you have Cech i would go Vertonghen
I would spread the risk as Arsenal's defense isnt that good...
For the WCers, Gabbi in or out?
Right now out
Out
Remain in my team. Not keen to take a hit for DGW. For GW36 WCers, I suggest them to stay away tho.
Out out out.
out and out
Low-ish TV - so he's squeezed out for the enabler (Anichebe)
who scores more in 36-37: Lukaku or Gabbi?
Between Gabbi and Anichebe it has to be Gabbi
What does that cost you elsewhere?
Out
why are people leaving out?
out this week
might be in for 37 when fixtures are easier
and
I don't want Anichebe for BB
and
his playing time/form are clearer
Azpi or Bailly for the couple of weeks?
Az
Azpilicueta
Az
T Carroll and Gabbiadini to Sanchez and Anichebe worth (-8)? Can afford it exactly now.
I wouldnt be getting gabbi in now myself, but if i had him in i wouldnt be taking a hit to get him out! He has the dgw, and you have him in already. i say back him in
yep
Which combo do you prefer;
A. Pickford + Monreal
B. Cech + Gabriel
C. Cech + Huth
Thanks
A
c
B
Thanks all
A
heaton
azpi-cedric-davies-evans
hazard-alli-coutinho
jesus-kane(C)-gabbi
fraser-zaha-fernandez
what changes?
where's your other keeper
Keep Heaton... I regret ditching him on WC so much...
Coutinho to Eriksen
Zaha to JWP
Davies to Monreal
Does that work?
Can't see a path for you to get Sanchez without a huge bendover
Could punt on Walcott if you have the funds
who to bench?
Alli - Eriksen - Sanchez - Pedro - King
Costa - Kane - Jesus
King
Pedro, Willian starting 11?
yup, little bit worry about Pedro's minutes, but my ML rival has him. so i think i need to play him.
sorry. from those, king.
Bailly --> Gabriel for FT, or play Vertonghen this week?
Play Vert
agree
this
gabbi to jesus or lukaku to jesus?
Lukaku
gabbi imo
Gabbi now.
Might as well play Lukaku this week if you held him through the drop.
There's a nice differential case for a front line with Jesus *and* Lukaku next week if you can't quite afford Kane Costa Jesus.
Whcih 3 defenders would you start ?
A) Alonso (MID)
B) Stevens (liv MU)
C) Vertonghen (whu)
D) Daniels (STO)
Acd
ACD
A C D
Bench StePHens
cheers all. hope stevens doesnt do a de roon.
ACD
Long one this:
1. Cech Vertonghen Monreal Alli Anichebe
or
2. Cech Vertonghen Gabriel Carroll Costa
or
3. Pickford Azpi Gabriel Capoue Costa
Cheers in advance
3
first one... like that A LOT more
Interesting thanks
1
1 if you have Hazard
2
You had to complicate this didn't you 😉
A
Best keeper below 4.4 for 37 and 38?
Not many choice there, probably Pickford or Jakupovic
Yeah but Jaku has horrible fixtures in 37,38 🙂
Pickford decent for 37 but not for 38
Very few keepers in that bracket,Hennesey has a decent fixture in 37 too
Do u have Caballero?
Pickford Jakupovic combo should make up for fixtures with saves
Pickford has the extra match
pickford
Which trip on WC
Pedro monreal Vardy
Or
Sanchez Gabbi huth
Is it possible to do Sane Monreal Jesus
do u have sane/jesus already?
Sanchez
Out of those 2 probably the one with Sanchez
B
Do you reckon Ake will start against Middlesbro?
If Luiz is not fit,so a bit unlikely dont think of getting him in ur team
no
He's already in, but just so I could make a purchase elsewhere. Just deciding who to start - him or williams
no
Which to prioritize? Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal defence?
1) Chelsea
2) Monreal, Kosc or Cech
3) Spurs
4) Other Arsenal defenders
only cech from arsenal for me
Chelsea
Arsenal
Spurs
from this gw or next gw?
if from this gw, monreal/cech top priority
if next week, chelsea/spurs top priority
For those of us on a WC this week.
A. Hazard and Carroll (5th mid) or
B. Pedro and Sane (5th mid)
On GW36 A is of course better option, but is B worth it for BB on DGW37 ?
Thanks.
A, all day
Which is better
A. Siggy vs EVE
Or
B. Firmino vs SOU
They both have a lot to play for right now.
I think Firminio because Lallana can create for him now.
So I guess this is it for Gabbiadini.
Anichebe in for a 352 which helps me upgrade Ozil to Sanchez.
What about y'all?
