The curtailed Gameweek 35 concludes at Goodison Park tonight as Everton host Newcastle United in a fixture that has all the makings of a dead rubber.

The two teams are now surely safe from the threat of relegation and appear to be playing for Premier League prize money only over the remaining matches.

But from a Fantasy perspective, there is still interest in the Merseyside clash, with Free Hit managers investing in the likes of Jordan Pickford, Leighton Baines and Seamus Coleman in their one-week refresh.

All start for the home side tonight.

Meanwhile, those without the chip at their disposal, likely take Magpies assets into this match, with Ayoze Perez, Kenedy and budget defender Paul Dummett among the most likely to feature in squads.

Indeed, Perez is the most signed player on show tonight, having commanded over 133,000+ transfers in ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

That follows a rich vein of form from the Spaniard which has produced three goals and three two assists from his last three Gameweek starts.

Perez sits behind Islam Slimani in the attack tonight, with the Algerian starting a Premier League match for Newcastle for the first time since his loan move from Leicester City.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    How many hits from now until GW 37 are people taking?.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hopefully zero

    2. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1

    3. Tmel
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably an 8 this week and next

    4. asquishypotato
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Ideal, zero.
      Reality, -4 or -8 for next week in prep for the double and then maybe a flutter in the last gameweek lending mini leagues

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        This.

        I thought i had planned ok in WC in 33. It doesn't feel like it now.

    5. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I was going to roll 2 frees and still do a -8 in 37, but I don't think it will be enough.....so I may do a -4 this week and -8 next just to spread the cost

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yes, Colonel I think I will need to something similar

    6. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1

    7. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm looking at -8 over the two game weeks on the basis that the players coming in have doubles and could repay the hit.

    8. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      2 this week and possibly 1 next week

    9. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Zero hopefully

    10. pjomara
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably 4 transfers over next 2 gws, so that'll be 2 hits.
      If Salah is playing and team is leaked that could change as I don't have him.

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yes, i'm waiting for AE too. He want's that prem record

    DDG
    Verto / Robertson / Chilwell
    Alli / Mahrez / Willian / Gross
    (K)ane / Lukaku / Barnes

    Ryan - Lowton / Ibe / Alonso

    1FT, 0.2 ITB

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years

      Be tempted by Lowton over groß

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years

        But nice team

              • 11 Years

              67 and a nice move up!

                66 here and finally climbing back up my mini leagues, shocker of a season overall though

                1. trinzoo
                  • 11 Years
                  7 years, 7 months ago

                  Same for me, was finishing into top10k for the last 3 seasons. Now, I'm sitting at 130k...

                  1. Ask Yourself
                    • 9 Years
                    7 years, 7 months ago

                    230k and hoping for a top 100k ffs ah well we go again

  3. Tmel
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Willian likely to avoid rotation in the league for the rest of the season?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Think something’s going on with him and conte. They have a cup final to prepare for so if they’re all good i’d Think so

      1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        No, he was rested the second game in 34 and with cup final on the horizon Conte won't want to "burn him out"

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Was subbed off after 60 in the semis

          1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            that's correct, with no game for a week afterwards. All the more reason to suggest he gets rotated. Mahrez isn't performing but he's still a better pick with those fixtures

            1. Ask Yourself
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              I see what you mean I thought we disagreed but I agree

              1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
                • 14 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                " know what you're saying", she said. "But the grass is wet"

  4. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    So here’s my plan right, was thinking either Willian or mahrez should go for sterling/Sane/Silva. But i’d Also like city defence and only have enough itb for either a Morgan > City or Willian > City. SO if Willian is indeed in a mess it’d be alright if I did these transfers and benched him as I still have 11 decent DGWers without him right?

    DDG Ryan

    Smalling Vert Morgan* Lowton Tark

    Mahrez* Alli Arnie Lingard Willian*

    Austin Vardy Kane

  5. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Hey guys, do these moves make sense? 1 FT and 0.7 ITB Other suggestions welcome.

    GW36 - Mahrez & Bailly > Eriksen & Naughton for -4 hit (0.1 short on getting Erik)

    GW37 - Lukaku & GroB > Jesus & Silva for -4 hit

    DDG - Hennessey
    Bailly - Alonso - Lowton - Long - Morgan
    Salah - Willian - Son - Mahrez - GroB
    Lukaku - Vardy - Barnes.

  6. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    How many people are doing Lukaku to Kane this week? Lukaku could bag a brace v Arsenal (haven’t got an away point in 2018).

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I wouldn’t if I had Lukaku

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Would you Lukaku (c)?

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          If arsene’s talking about giving his players a break then absolutely their defence is awful and their back up defence is shockingly awful

    2. Bring the Cavalry
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      And Kane could bag a hattrick v WAT

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Its Kane’s higher ceiling that worries me

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Keeping lukaku for sure

    4. Old Gregg
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      not doing it this week. However, that could be a bad decision.

      May also go Kaneless for the DGW too. A lot on here and pundits saying Kane looks off the pace.

  7. Our Tiny Windows
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I’m 98 points behind my mini league leader. Is there any chance?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Not really, no

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      No

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Sorry to say ..no

    4. Old Gregg
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hijack his account and do 25 transfers.

    5. Tired and weary
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      There is a slim chance if you have chips remaining and get lucky

    6. WE GO FOR IT
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Get an explosive player which he doesn't have and TC him in 37. 20+ points from him should give you a chance but it looks tough.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      His head’s gone

  8. Tosa86
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    My actual team is:
    DDG - Fabianski
    Robertson - Smalling - Tark - Chilwell - Naughton
    Salah-Son-Sterling-Willian-McArthur
    Kane - Jesus - Barnes.

    GW36: DDG - Smalling - Robertson - Tark - Salah - Son - Sterling - Willian - Kanes - Jesus - Barnes, bench: Fabianski - chilwell - naughton - McArthur --> No Trasfert to do, but my doubts: Capitan --> Salah - Sterling - Kane and DDG or Fabianski?

    GW37: i can 3 FT with -4 to replace barnes with lukaku, cut willian son or willian salah? for who?

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years

      Re-format your post to get more responses. It's just a massive list of names.

        Salah - Son - Sterling - Willian
        Kanes - Jesus - Barnes

        No Trasfer needs (maybe), but my doubts:

        Capitan --> Salah - Sterling - Kane?
        DDG or Fabianski?

        GW37: i can 3 FT with -4 to replace barnes with lukaku, cut willian son or willian salah? for who?

    A. Mahrez > Sterling (-4) (funds for Willian > Silva GW37)
    B. Christensen Willian > Cedric* Sterling (-8) (then Mahrez > Sané/Silva GW37)
    *or Swansea/Newcastle defender 4.7m

    DDG (Ryan)

    Mahrez Son Willian Milivojevic (Lingard)
    Kane Jesus Barnes

  10. Dreaming of glory
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    36 pts behind mini lg leader. He has wc & dgw. I have tc.

    Know he will get kane in & likely captain for dgw.

    What can i do to avoid kane and close gap?

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      You could triple up on Erik Alli Son and TC Sterling but it's risky...

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I think TC Jesus or sterling

  11. Goalosaurus
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone else considering triple Spur attack for the run-in? Fixtures look favourable, although maybe not as much as Man City's.

    Fixtures: Wat (H), West Brom (A), Newcastle (H), Leicester (H)

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Yes, I would on WC. Relatively happy to be stuck with Kane Son and Vert though and City in to prioritise.

      1. Goalosaurus
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        On WC with Kane, Erksen, and Son - think there is a good chance of hauls from any.

        Only 2 x Man CIty players though, tough to balance. Although Salahless anfield express lineup would solve that problem.

  12. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    As it stands how would this team be for 37

    DDG

    Smalling Kompany/Laporte Vertonghen

    Arnie Lingard Alli Sterling

    Vardy Austin Kane

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      1 city short (prefer 3 city attackers over Kompany or Laporte personally), rest is very good imo.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Thank you! Alternative would be a -4 to lose alli and get Sane which i’m not wild about.
        Or having Morgan instead of city defence and benching one of the above for sane etc. Just feel though city Def is guaranteed points when if they play one

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          When = Even if*

        2. Legomane
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          not wild about Sane over Alli to be fair, similarly explosive

    Projected minutes for Salah against Stoke? Think Kane or Eriksen could be the best captaincy picks.

    1. RUUD!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      80 I would say

      1. Legomane
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        stretchered off on 80 mins?

    2. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      If I was Klopp, I'd give him the day off... 🙂

    3. Andy'81
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm going to go for zero, reckon he could get rotated this GW with Pool focusing on the CL games, we'll likely get a leaked line up pre-deadline though.

    4. kinghenry14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      70 mins after G and A

    5. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years

      Could depend on tonight.

  15. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Currently this is my team for gw37 no hits
    Ddg
    Bertrand mawson Alonso
    Sterling mahrez son willian Lingard
    Kane vardy

    Is that good enough?

    1. Jet5605
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Looks good but given City's dream fixtures it might be worth getting a second attacking asset like Silva or Jesus.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Difficult to nail the second city mid or else I would get him. Since I have vardy and Barnes with Kane it takes a -8 maybe -12 to get Jesus and Sterling at the cost of barnes

      2. Squashed
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        wont sweat too much if you dnt hve jesus.
        would be better if u have 2 out of 3 of. silva sane sterling.
        im not sold on bertrand, i think that money can be spent elsewhere by getting a sgw player.

        1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          Already have Bertrand in gw34.doing Salah +tark to mawson + Sterling

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Any insider knowledge on Liverpool team tonight?

  17. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    What are Mahrez owners doing? Really fed up with his return of late. Has he been unlucky or is he on the beach?

    Can't decide whether to keep or sell for Sterling, Silva or Eriksen.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Has been sh*t

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Keeping this gw, might sale for sterling gw37

    3. Ronaldo7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      He was unlucky last week, could have easily scored two and had a couple of assists if vardy had his shooting boots on. Im keeping him for this week against palace (due to not wanting to take a 4 point hit) then he could be the one to go so i can make space for Sterling if he looks like he's going to play every game.

  18. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I am 50 points behind top 10k according to Gargatron. Can I hack it into this group or is this a bridge too far? Only got BB chip left.

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      BB could turn it for you if lots above you drop back, it's a very long shot...

      I'm 63 back from 10k, 38 back from 20k - if I can squeak 20k I'll be astonished (TC37)

    2. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      lucky for you guys, i am 30 pts back from 100K with only TC left, would be immense for me if I were to hack myself in there

    3. dmcqt
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Bench boost is probably on average worth about four points a player, so probably around 16 points (keeping in mind that mostly they'll be bench fodder). This leaves you 34 points to make up. It's possible, though there's a lot of convergence of teams at the top now (everyone getting Kane and Jesus, Sterling and a selection of other Tottenham and Man Utd players). Good luck anyway!

  19. fkmzcgp

    Get rid of 2 for Man City players:

    Thoughts on Ben Davies?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years

      Risky with rotation but good attacking returns. I m going vert instead

  22. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Hey guys, what would you do with this lot? 0.7 and 1 FT. Keen to get Eriksen/Kane, Jesus and Sterling/Silva over the next two weeks but how do I enable with minimal hits?

    DDG - Hennessey
    Bailly - Alonso - Lowton - Long - Morgan
    Salah - Willian - Son - Mahrez - GroB
    Lukaku - Vardy - Barnes.

  23. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Given West Ham's situation does anyone think they might grind something out against City? Have a feeling a surprise could be on the cards in this one.

    1. Coot
      • 15 Years

      Like Swansea did?

      Nope, I've got City to batter them.

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Don't think so. City are too good.

    4. Goalosaurus
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably more likely with Adrian playing instead of Hart.

  24. Frank Koscielny
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A) Mahrez to Sterling
    B) Lukaku to Kane
    C) Both for -4
    D) Save FT

    Rest of attack is Salah, Willian, Son, Hojbjerg, Vardy and Murray

    1. GAMBIT

      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm actually looking to get rid of Willian before Mahrez

    Who else is considering completely ignoring Kane for the rest of the season?

      Would make me well nervous but given my time again I would

      I am

      Thats just plain dumb to do that, kane wants that golden boot as much as i cant see him getting it, but take that into consideration and the fact he's imo the best striker in the league why wud you not have him???? Spurs can secure 3rd aswell

    4. Old Gregg
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Considering. This weekend will probably decide it for sure.
      A lot of people/pundits saying he looks off the pace.

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        I haven't got him at the moment

    Right, on wild card. How does this look? Very cheap def!

    Is there any point keeping Bailly?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      None

  28. Jet5605

    Is Lukaku looking good for 180 minutes in GW37? He plays in the first and last games in the GW which are six days apart. Think this could be a big factor.

    Have a feeling Pep could do a Pep and rest Jesus and/or Sterling

    1. Feloh
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      rest Jesus for who?

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        He could play Sterling up top or field a kid. City's games are three days apart. Pep is a rotation nightmare.

    2. Andy'81
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I'm guessing he'll be rotated for the second game, although their is six days between the DGW fixtures United will be playing Fri - Thurs - Sun and with the final game being the last home game of the season Jose will likely save his stronger team for that.

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Good point. Think Jesus could be a safer bet assuming Kun won't come back in 37

        1. Andy'81
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          I am going with Jesus over Lukaku however we could always get Pep'd again, that City squad is ridiculously talented.

          1. Jet5605
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Wouldn't surprise me if he rotates Jesus with Sterling as he has plenty options in midfield.

            Who would be your TC pick for 37? Thinking Dilva, Jesus or Eriksen.

            1. Andy'81
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              I'll be captaining either Jesus or Sterling for GW 37, the risk of rotation is real but them two fixtures are ideal for a DGW.

      2. pjomara
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        I think the opposite, final home game will be reserve team as its 6 days before FA Cup Final which is the only game that counts for them.
