Fixtures

The Blank Gameweek picture after United’s victory and FA Cup draw

Manchester United’s victory over Chelsea in the fifth round of the FA Cup means that we finally have a complete picture for Blank Gameweek 31.

The five fixtures that will take place in that Gameweek are as follows:

Bournemouth v Newcastle United
Burnley v Leicester City
West Ham United v Huddersfield Town
Fulham v Liverpool
Everton v Chelsea

The meeting between the Toffees and Maurizio Sarri’s side is newly confirmed because of the Blues’ FA Cup exit and gives Fantasy bosses an extra two teams from which to draw their assets in Gameweek 31 (whether free-hitting or otherwise) – though both clubs are distinctly out of sorts at present.

The FA Cup quarter-final draw took place after full-time at Stamford Bridge and looks as follows:

Swansea v Manchester City
Watford v Crystal Palace
Wolves v Manchester United
Millwall v Brighton

That means we will get between two and four blanks in Gameweek 33 – one of which will definitely be Wolves’ match against Manchester United, as one of those clubs is guaranteed to progress to the FA Cup semi-finals on that same weekend.

In the worst-case scenario (or best-case, for those Fantasy managers hoping for as much carnage as possible), the following Gameweek 33 fixtures will have to be postponed to a later date:

Manchester City v Cardiff City
Newcastle United v Crystal Palace OR Watford v Fulham
Spurs v Brighton
Wolves v Manchester United

The Scout Notes for United’s 2-0 victory in west London will follow tomorrow, as will a look at potential chip strategies for the weeks ahead.

        Thank you Rainy 🙂

    Most confusing year ever

    Which is fine. Because I have the will and the patience. Do you, Mr Casual?

      Chaos suits me

  3. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I can't bring myself to sell Duffy before Hudd. Will have to risk less than 11 this week and wait on Leicester defender

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      duffy’s been lucky to get the attacking returns he has, will probably revert back to long-term chance conversion rate

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Shame he doesn't play in gw31
      I was looking to get him in the team

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      15 pointer likely.

  4. Roy Rovers
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Got these for GW31 - Fab, TAA, Salah, Mane and Pereira....planning these transfers....

    GW29 Rashford to Barnes
    GW30 Camarasa to Fraser.....leaving me enough for Auba > Aguero

    How’s it looking?

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      so youre bringing in aguero for one game?

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Why getting Aguero in gw 30 ??
      I'll look to sell him/auba whoever I've got after 29

    3. Roy Rovers
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sorry my bad....Aguero will be after 31

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        u not fh32?

      2. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        You want Auba for 29 and 30??

      3. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Not sure about that.
        But other transfer's are good imo.
        We'll have very similar team in 31 i guess

  5. Amey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Manchester United have done a huge favor IMO to the managers who are thinking about FH in gw32 by taking out Chelsea.

    It'll be easy to put 9-10 players in gw 31 now

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      yeah no brainer imo

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      yeah, I was almost certainly FHing in 31, but now I'm not so sure

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        🙂

      2. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        such a shame that people not going to waste it in 31 anymore

        1. SADIO SANÉ
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I feel like the complete opposite

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Ha ha

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I was almost the opposite. Much more to think about in terms of bringing in CHE players in for GW31....

      Dont have any CHE players, and certainly dont want them in place of in form players, so making it hard for me not to FH in 31

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Fixtures are turning though.
        Higuain could be a safe bet 1.5m cheaper than Hazard

        1. Scholes Out For Summer
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Honestly though, like CHE looks absolutely terrible... Id fancy them getting shut out by Wolves and losing to Fulham in their next 3. Honestly wouldnt be surprised

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Nahh.
            They are turning like Arsenal under Wenger in his last year's.
            Beating the hell out of crap teams & getting whooped by Big clubs 😀

    4. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      but Chelsea players make me feel dead inside

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Fulham,Wolves,Everton
        Will definitely get Higuain mate.
        Nice differential too 😉

    5. 1569Tippins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yip... exactly what I wanted personally

  6. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    With CHE now in BGW31, and as someone who doesnt have any CHE players in my team, are they even worth bringing in?

    Im sure most people can field 9-11 players for the BGW31 without CHE, but is Hazard, Luiz, Higuain worth using a FH for?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You won't have the 31 players you get on FH that play again 33. If you bring players in normally and with hits then FH 32 you will

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yes my first choice would be to do FH GW32 anyways, but would probably have to use the chip in 31 if I want CHE for the blank, and I really dont want them in my actual team...

        Just conflicted about bringing any CHE players just for the blank...

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      FH 32 + getting Higuain from Fulham game is the plan

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        No other players tempt you? Haz and luiz?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Hazard yes
          Luiz not tempting. Their defense is sh.t 😛

  7. pakornk
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    If you have 2 FTs and planning to FH that week, it's better to use 1 FT to buy in a player just so that you dont waste one of your FTs correct? As you will only be left with 1 FT after using the FH chip. I understand this correctly right?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You mean use 2FT week before you FH? Pretty sure FH wipes out trades made same week

    2. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      correct.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Use both before FH week.

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      FTs don't count when you FH.

  8. bryant
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    A) Auba Hojbjerg -> Arnie Mane
    B) Rash WanB -> Arnie Lascelles
    C) Rash -> Arnie save ft

    I’m leaning towards b for the free clean sheet future transfers would look something like
    28: auba -> Kun (scoring too much)
    29: save
    30: jota Pogba -> Fraser Mané
    31: kun -> vardy

    Thoughts?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Palace have scored 11 goals against Leicester without reply last 4 meetings

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Leicester scored 2

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          2-0 up then 11 unanswered

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Oh I see

      2. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        this is trivia, not useful info

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Bogey teams exist

  9. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who's getting Arnie?

    1. bryant
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Differential with good fixtures and playing 31/33? Sign me up

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I'll see how he goes and consider after City game

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      no way

    4. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Injuries 😉

  10. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Well my bench is going to be Wan Pogba Doherty gwk31, to much value in these players to sell and buy back.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Doherty is fast becoming a troll benched vs Leicester goal fest. Scoring in cup games and blanking in PL

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I will considering everything as the weeks go by, now my decision is Maddison or Anderson for Richarlison and Dubravka or Schmeichel.

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I'm not sure how Boruc can be overlooked. Better blanks than both those 1m dearer keepers. Newcastle chance of no 33. I'm tempted to use my FT on Boruc and play instead of Patricio this week even with Doherty and Jimi and 3 possible non playing risks out of 11

          1. EMBOLOFAN
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            this would be absurd

          2. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            City and Arsenal in next 3, plenty of save points though I suppose

            1. Kiwivillan
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              I'm not playing him until 30. I'm getting him in soon

              1. Kiwivillan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                If I owned I would play over Patricio I'm so fed up Patricio

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You would rather retain his value than get more points from someone else ? Interesting

  11. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    from now until GW31, are people only using FTs on players with a game BGW31??

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yeh but the teams involved have great games leading up to gwk31

      1. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        exactly... im still bringing in city before (next week) and then will focus on the bgw31 players

        whats your plan

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Atm getting Anderson/Maddison and Dubravka/Schmeichel, then probably Hazard next.

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      That's my intention with only Salah(Snodgrass rotation risk with Nasri Lanzini back)

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah
      Could get Kun in the meanwhile though

    4. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yes with the exception of getting in Sterling for Anderson next gw, then selling Sterling for Haz for the blanks.

  12. EMERGING STAR
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    FH32 it is

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      😉

    2. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      why?

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Common sense?

        1. FCSB
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          whats the for's and against's of doing FH32 rather than WC mate?

          1. Kiwivillan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Set team for DGW 35 BB

            1. Hotdogs for Tea
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Can’t you do that with a WC in 32 ?

              1. Kiwivillan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                You want bulk of 31 team for 33 but that's it. WC in 32 seems yuck

                1. Hotdogs for Tea
                  • 8 Years
                  5 years, 1 month ago

                  Not if you FH in 33 though

                  Means you can retain more decent (City, Spurs, Utd) players upto 31 and then ignore 33.

                  The only gamble is whether Utd beat Wolves and get a double in 35. City will beat Swansea and not fussed about Brighton, Watford or Palace having a double in 35 🙂

                5 years, 1 month ago

                Also more info regarding 35 closer to the time if WC 34

  13. EMBOLOFAN
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    sterling to outscore haz by 4+ during 28-30?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He should.
      But hazard playing Fulham in that gw's.
      So ...

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      trying to decide whether to go with sterling and bring in hazard for blanks (prob for a hit) or just do haz from next week

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        chels looked poor today but haz still caused problems

    3. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He should. I think Raheem will rest one of the 3 games between 28-30.

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        you think he outscores haz even considering rotation risk?

        1. Niho992
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          With his and City form yeah.

  14. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Hmmmm actually, i could get Boruc for Button and not have to get rid of Ederson.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Bingo!

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks mate 🙂

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Good move

  15. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Anything worth a hit?
    Shaw/matip to chilwell?
    Rashford to vardy?
    Lamela to maddison?

    Alisson
    Robbo Shaw Matip Jonny
    Son Pogba Felipe Lamela
    Rashford Arnie

    Speroni Bednarek Aguero Sterling

    1.2 itb 0 FT

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      nothing for a hit

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. But leicester has great long term fixures and bringing players for hit for bgw is a thing I should do sooner or later. Isn't it better to take it now and enjoy better fixtures?

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing this gw.
      Although i would suggest to get at least one of Salah/Mane going forward

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I may. And also considering TAA as matip's long term replacement. The guy is a great value

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Definitely good value

  16. nibby
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Question for you fellas:
    Suppose i have a 2FT going into this gw. Now if i decide to play FH chip, do i get 1 or 2 FT the following gameweek?
    TIA

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      1 FT

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      You lose your FT. I'm pretty sure if you make a transfer then play FH same week it reverts back to team before you made transfer

      1. nibby
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Hey guys, really struggling to figure out if I should TF Digne to Perreira for -4 this GW. If I don’t make that TF then I have to bench Digne and play Hojbjerg(ars) and will have exactly 11 players this GW. What do you guys think?

    Cheers

      I think the hit could pay off in the long term.

        5 years, 1 month ago

        This is what I’m thinking also but now since Digne does not have any blank GWs after this, do you still think Perreira is better long term? I was all set to make this TF had Chelsea won last night and Digne won’t play in GW31, but now he plays both 31 and 33 so I’m reconsidering. What do you think?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I think so.
          Look @ his fixtures till gw 34.
          No blanks + good fixtures.

      Hojbjerg likes a shot and it is Arsenal. I been planning to bring in Pereira but don't see a CS against Palace

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      depends how nailed the 11 are. its prob pretty close

      1. john25
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        The 11 are all quite nailed unless Doherty is injured and can’t play. Hojbjerg should be guaranteed to start right?

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Uhh he's the team captain

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yep.
          And sometimes on Free kicks too.

    What would you do with this lot?

    Fab* (Pat)
    Kola Doherty AWB Schindler* (Alonso**)
    Salah* Son Pogba Anderson* (Richo**)
    Jim Rashford (Kamara)

    1 Ft, 7.7m in bank

    Currently 6 for GW31 but don't like Alonso+Richo

    Cheers in advance.

    1. mikess

      Alonso out for me

    2. Buck The Trent

        So save this week?

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years

      I'd go get a Leister Defender with the FT.

      7.7m itb 😮

    5. JasonG123
      • 10 Years

      Schindler/Alonso to Robbo/TAA this week. The next week Richarlison to Sterling to Kamara to Kun.

      1. JasonG123
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        *OR Kamara to Kun.

        You already have 6 playing in GW31 so you have the freedom to not use all your FT to get GW31 to get GW31 players. You really only need 9-10 for GW31 anyway so you can jump on City next week.

    6. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I would get 0.5m Pat>Boruc and play him 33 but that doesn't increase blank numbers

    7. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Hi mate. I would downgrade Alonso and use the money to bring Auba

  19. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Torn here on whether to FH in GW 31 or GW 32.
    Currently have 5 players for GW 31 but it feels like deja vu where I would be just holding them for that 1 blank while there are prov better options around.

    Digne/Rich/Firmino are hardly ideal to own until GW 31 I think.
    Thoughts- Pereira/TAA/Newcastle/Bournemouth/West Ham all in my thoughts for players to bring in.

    160k and need something special to increase rank here.
    *Fabianski.
    Bednarek, Doherty, AWB.
    Pogba, *Salah, Son, Camarasa.
    *Firmino, Auba, Rashford.
    Hamer, Holebas, *Rich, *Digne.
    2ft, 1.4m ITB.

    1. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Get TAA and Pereira ... i’d keep Firmino

    2. JasonG123
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Think Firmino could be okay for GW31. Rich and Digne could go though (Rich first). I think either save this week or do Digne to TAA. FH32 is optimal imo.

  20. mikess
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    WC 32 AND FH33 is also an option I feel.

    What's the catch?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      GW 35 will be far away imo.
      So FH in gw32 & WC in gw 34 is safe to BB in gw 35 (at least in my case)

      1. mikess
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Is that the only negative? I know it means I might end up nursing an injury on the bench but I'll be armed with two transfers too

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yep.
          WC/FH in 32 should be gold anyway.
          It's about having good squad for 35 onwards (for me as I'd have some junk in the team for blank gw's so WC in 34 & wiping out makes sense)

          1. mikess
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            The key is not ignoring 28-30. That's what I'm trying to get a solution for. I don't want to be losing any key assets until 31. I might just roll a transfer in 30 and take a - 8 for 31

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Agreed.

    2. JasonG123
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not really a need to FH33 since using FTs to prepare for GW31 will also prepare you for GW33. Also it means your WC in 32 will be very far away from the double in 35, that hurt me (and many others) last year when we used one WC to prepare for two DGWs.

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Most 31 players will play 33

    4. mikess
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers for opinions. Just trying to get my head around it all

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I like it. I am open to hearing every option for earlier WC

    5. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      No catch at all

      If you FH in 33 though you can retain more decent (City, Spurs, Utd) players upto 31 and then ignore 33, just maybe need to carry 2 free transfers into 31 to tweak things. I have 8 for GW31 already (mainly my bench fodder, Chelsea & Liverpool) and think I can get more points in the run up to 31 than the extra I actually get in 31 by planning any more for it

      The only gamble with a WC in 32 imho is whether Utd beat Wolves and get a double in 35. City will beat Swansea and not fussed about Brighton, Watford or Palace having a double in 35 ... and you will have 2 transfers going in to GW35 any way 🙂

  21. Amey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Just saw the highlights of the Swansea City fa cup match.

    That guy James (20 jersey) has got some serious pace 😮

    What a blistering run & Goal !!

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He is rapid indeed, just recently been capped for Wales

      Another Brooks type player for the PL next season 🙂

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        😉

  22. JasonG123
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Patricio (Hamer)
    Robertson TAA Doherty Wan-Bissaka (Digne)
    Salah Pogba Son (Sterling Siggy)
    Rashford Jimenez (Kamara)

    Only 10 playing this week. 1FT, 1.4m ITB. Which move?
    (A) Siggy to FAnderson
    (B) Kamara to Barnes/Rondón
    (C) Digne to Pereira

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

      1. JasonG123
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Siggy and FAnderson are pretty similar options though, especially now that Siggy is playing in GW31. Is this worth a FT?

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Fanderson fixtures appeal but still only 1 shot on target last 6

          1. JasonG123
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            What move would you go for looking at my team?

        2. mikess
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Everton fixtures are crap tho. Even including 31

          1. JasonG123
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Yes, I'm just playing devil's advocate to try see his reasoning.

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Everton ate in dire state atm.
          I'd stay away till they catch up with others.
          Predictable playing style.
          I had Siggy since gw 9, sold him last gw.

          1. JasonG123
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Fair enough they have looked awful.

          2. Amey
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            And Anderson playing against Fulham RB this gw 😉

  23. Francescoli
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski* Button
    Robertson* Kolasinac Doherty Pereira* AWB
    Salah* Sterling Pogba Son Puncheon*
    Firmino* Rashford Success

    Potentially 6 BGW31 players. Which transfers would you make over the coming weeks? Rashford to Barnes? Sterling to Hazard? Bournemouth attacker?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I would enjoy pts in next 3 and then think about gw 31

      1. Francescoli
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Many of the 31 teams also play 33 so it’s not like you are making transfers for one game only

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Getting 2 for 1 on hits even

  24. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Guys ignore GW 31. It's still irrelevant.... Don't make your transfers based on it and carry dead wood like Alonso, Richa and Hazard

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I don't have any of those but non 31 deadwood

  25. Ohh1454
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Coming 4th in Ml with 40 points behind . Two of the teams ahead own fanderson so should I get madders instead ?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Get who you think will score most points. I have neither and not getting soon

      1. Ohh1454
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I just feel like it's pointless getting anderson as I wouldn't be making any ground although I do see him coming good

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      dont differentiate on players you dont believe in

  26. bigbudgie
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Brooks coming back in time for the blanks would be wonderful. Who's going back to Wilson/Fraser?

    1. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Gotta make sure he's ok and healthy

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure whether to get cheap 5th mid or leave spot for Brooks coming back

      1. bigbudgie
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Does Brooks not count as both (if fit?)

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          0.6-0.8m I could get for cheaper could make difference in other transfer targets so absolutely

          1. bigbudgie
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Yep, how useful is a bench fodder 5th mid with the blanks coming up though? Surely needs to be a player with some chance of points come 31/33

    3. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I've had Brooks for a while, going to hold with fingers crossed for the bgws. I will probably get in King or Wilson if fit for Jimenez for the blanks.

  27. Camino Aleatorio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    If Mpappe played in EPL- how much would he cost in FPL?

    I say 12M minimum but we can't just give him Salah value at 13M

    1. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Salah price is just trigger from 2 season.
      Mpappe might be 10.0 unit at 1st entry

      1. Camino Aleatorio
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Same as a 31 year old Serie A flop?

        This is a World Cup winner

        At 10M, he would cancel out because everyone would have him

        1. Numbuster
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          well what is the price for a world cup winner Pogba? 8.0 only.
          would be a reasonable price for a new comer at 10.0

          If he is falls on 12.0 i would not to buy him before he get adapt into EPL

  28. Numbuster
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    some question to ask IF

    GW31 - plan to use FH with FT1, will this FT brought forward to the next game?
    If yes, mean GW32 will have FT2.

    If the case as same affect as WC'd, it will offset all the FT available unused here.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      FH is same as WC no carry over transfer. If you play FH team reverts to team from previous game week as in if you use FT same week as FH that FT doesn't count

      1. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        If cannot c/f the FT, i might used the FT on GW31 for a DGW32 and then use FH for the BGW31

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Also I can't see how FH in 31 is a good idea when you'll want most 31 players in 33

      1. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Nope.. BGW is on GW31, so right now the plan is to bring DGW32 as much as could and able to accomodate with GW27-30 players

        GW31 is only 10 team player to play. In this idea, you can just take any player you like during the week w/o focus from the player of GW27-30 and GW32 onwards

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          31 fixtures not attractive outside the obvious. Won't have more than 8-9 and most of the usual suspects. I'll FH the best 32 DGW team whether I own or not then 33 will have the 8-9 from 31 plus any others I have playing 33

          1. Numbuster
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            well you are right too..
            Let me do consider this option.
            Probably i could safe my FH, BB in some others GW

    3. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      i guess i found my answer after done the reading here

  29. Cojones of Destiny

    since ings is injured , long is to play gainst ars , any chance of him scoring lads ?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Anyone can score against Arsenal

      1. Cojones of Destiny
        • 6 Years

        haha true

    2. Holmes

      There is some chance

  30. FCSB

    remember the season before last when Harry Kane blew FPL apart... could the same happen again this year?

    1. Kiwivillan

      Sure.

    2. Holmes
