FPL Team News and Injury Round-up – Gameweek 29

With 17 press conferences being held on a busier-than-usual Friday, there is plenty to recap in our regular team news round-up article.

There was a headline-grabbing revelation from Pep Guardiola, who dropped the bombshell that Gabriel Jesus (hamstring) was fit and available for selection for Manchester City’s trip to Bournemouth on Saturday.

The Brazilian’s recovery from injury could have a direct impact on Sergio Aguero‘s pitch-time in Gameweek 29, with the Argentinean striker having played 120 minutes of the EFL Cup final last Sunday and the bulk of the 1-0 win over West Ham United in midweek.

Guardiola, indeed, had previously said that Aguero was “exhausted” after his latest outing on Wednesday night.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference this afternoon, Guardiola said:

Gabriel is back. John [Stones] is coming back too, like Gabriel.

The City head coach also provided an update on Fernandinho and Aymeric Laporte (both muscular injuries) and Fabian Delph:

I think after the international break they will be fit, especially Fernandinho. Maybe a few days later Aymeric.

[Delph] was injured and he made his first training session today. He’s not in the squad but he can play.

Across Manchester, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer provided positive news for owners of Marcus Rashford – though expressed doubt that Anthony Martial (groin) would recover:

Rashford is fully fit now. I’ll probably start him.

I don’t think there will be many changes. It’s the last session today, but we’re not going to take any risks, so maybe Anthony [Martial], but it might just be even a few more days before he’s ready, so probably the squad will look similar to what it did on Wednesday.

Maybe one third of them will be Academy kids – maybe even more – so that’s a good point to take out of it.

Jurgen Klopp provided an update on Roberto Firmino (ankle) ahead of the Merseyside derby, meanwhile:

He was out there running yesterday but we will have to see how he reacts. He is very positive. It looks really good but if he will be ready for tomorrow, I don’t know.

Liverpool look set to be without Dejan Lovren (hamstring) and Joe Gomez (leg) again, while Everton only have a doubt over Leighton Baines (back).

The Merseyside derby is not the only clash between two fierce local rivals this weekend.

Except for his long-term absentees, Unai Emery has a fully-fit squad for the trip to Wembley on Saturday lunchtime.

Dele Alli (hamstring) and Eric Dier (tonsillitis) will miss out for Spurs, while Jan Vertonghen and Harry Winks (both hip) require assessment.

Maurizio Sarri also has no injury worries for Chelsea’s short journey across west London on Sunday but suggested that he will make a handful of changes to his starting XI anyway, following his team’s exertions over the last seven days.

The Blues’ head coach said:

I need to value the recovery of every single player. Then we have to decide. But I think we need to change three or four players, I don’t know how many. But we need to change some.

Sarri also had some words to say on Kepa Arrizabalaga’s chances of an instant recall:

The Kepa situation now is closed. Kepa is our first-choice goalkeeper. But we are very happy for Willy. Because now we know very well that he’s able to play in a very difficult match. I’m sure that in one of the next two matches, Kepa will be on the pitch.

Nuno Espirito Santo reported that he too has no fitness concerns ahead of Gameweek 29 but sprang a surprise in announcing that John Ruddy would start ahead of Rui Patricio on Saturday:

John Ruddy is going to play tomorrow because we consider it’s the right moment to prepare him for what’s coming in front of us. In two weeks’ time we’re going to play the FA Cup, and John Ruddy is going to be in goal. We consider this the right moment to get some game competition and to be stronger.

Wolves are up against Cardiff City, who may have Victor Camarasa (calf) back in the starting XI for the first time since Gameweek 23.

Neil Warnock said:

We’ve still got a couple of knocks. One or two doubts. I’ll have a chat with Victor today [about whether he can start].

Callum Wilson (knee) is nearing a return for Bournemouth, who could have David Brooks back in the starting XI after the Wales international’s recent lay-off.

Eddie Howe said:

Wilson’s getting closer so we’ll make a late call on him. Injury-wise he’s fine, it’s just building up his fitness.

[Brooks is] fit to be involved. He’s done very limited training with us. The injury itself is fine, so we need to make a call as to whether he can function in the way that he wants to.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is back from a hamstring injury for Crystal Palace, though Mamadou Sakho remains sidelined after surgery.

Roy Hodgson commented:

Aaron Wan-Bissaka is fit again now which is a boost for us. Pape Souare is close to returning.

Mamadou Sakho had his operation in Paris. The operation was completed successfully and we hope to get him back as soon as we can.

Burnley will have Ashley Westwood (illness) back for that meeting with the Eagles, though are still missing Steven Defour (calf).

Manuel Pellegrini implied that Marko Arnautovic has recovered from illness ahead of the visit of Newcastle, though offered no update on
Aaron Cresswell (broken toe), Arthur Masuaku (unknown injury) or Ben Johnson (calf).

The West Ham boss said:

I think in this moment, we have our four strikers without any injuries – Andy Carroll, Marko Arnuatovic, Javier Hernandez and Lucas Perez – and we are recovering midfielders also, with Manuel Lanzini and Samir Nasri. 

We made some changes against City to have the players older than 30 fresh for Saturday and I always say as a manager that the problem is not to have too many players. The problem is when you don’t have players and you don’t have chances to change things with players coming from the bench.

Rob Elliot (back) and Ciaran Clark (knock) are Rafael Benitez’s only two injury-enforced absentees for the trip to West Ham, though Jonjo Shelvey looks very unlikely to feature having asked to play for the under-23s on Friday evening.

Brendan Rodgers has just Marc Albrighton (hamstring) and Daniel Amartey (leg) unavailable to him for his first match in charge of Leicester, while Sunday’s opponents Watford only have a worry over Kiko Femenia (illness).

Scott Parker also makes his bow as Fulham boss this weekend, with the Cottagers sweating on the availability of Andre Schurrle (virus).

Pascal Gross (hamstring) has joined Leon Balogun (knock) on the sidelines ahead of Brighton’s match against Huddersfield, who will make a late check on young full-back Demeaco Duhaney (thigh). Adama Diakhaby (hamstring) and Isaac Mbenza (calf) remain out.

Danny Ings (hamstring) and Mario Lemina (abdomen) are still missing for Southampton, meanwhile.

We have more detailed injury information and predicted line-ups in our Team News tab and in the podcast/YouTube video below:

    Play TAA or Robertson as Pool defender?

    1. Eytexi
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Why not both?

      1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Doherty, Luiz and Son preferred. Think Liverpool concede one but win

        1. GREEN IS GOOD
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          I'd be too scared to bench either after their last game.

          1. TheBrazilianRonaldo
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            Then I’d bench Doherty and play both. Luiz plays for sure

  2. FPLShaqiri
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Correct team and bench order? Think I'm going to save the FT. Considered Auba + Son > Arnie + Hazard (-4) but could be a high scoring North London Derby:

    Fabianski

    Jonny / Robertson / AWB

    Salah / Mané / Pogba / Son

    Aubameyang / Vardy / Mitrovic

    Steele, Camarasa, Yedlin, Bednarek

    1. Royal5
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Salad Cap?

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Will decide in the morning, currently on Son...

        1. Royal5
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Really? Wow

      2. Fergus1107
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        dropped him for sterling myself.

        got mane and pog so why not

    2. Lovren an elevator
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Mitro likely to cause any problems for Chelsea?

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Difficult to know, maybe a boosted Fulham with new manager. Could play Camarasa instead but on Mitro right now

        1. Brehmeren
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          No new manager though.

    3. It’s a Knockaert
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn’t take son out just yet

    SCOUT PICKS CHALLENGE - GAMEWEEK 29

    I will catch up... promise...

    ****** WHAT IS IT? ******

    For those of you who haven't been around or aren't aware, every evening prior to the start of the gameweek FFS releases their picks of players for the gameweek, "Scout Picks", as well as 3 differentials before the first games to separate yourself from the crowd.

    This is your way to have a bit of fun and challenge those scout picks with a set of your own (read instructions below). This will always open the day before the gameweek starts around 8pm, and whilst you don't have to play weekly, the more you play the better chance you have of winning!

    ****** INSTRUCTIONS ******

    Everyone can have their own scout picks (there is no limit on team value) but with one simple rule,

    YOU CAN ONLY PICK ONE PLAYER FROM EACH TEAM
    (yes, two of your players at least will be on opposing teams).

    You can only have ONE submission, and your FIRST submission will be what is accepted. You also must respond DIRECTLY to this post (not to a reply on this post). FFS Scout Picks are automatically enrolled. Teams must comply with FPL formation rules and be submitted in an easy to read format, e.g.

    GK
    DEF DEF DEF
    MID MID MID MID
    FOR FOR FOR

    Deadline for this gameweek is Saturday 2nd March, 11.45am.

    ****** SCORING ******

    Regardless of number of applicants, scoring will be done by the following:

    1st place: 3 points
    Top 4% of the population will rank "second" and score 2 points.
    Top 10% of the population will rank "third" and score 1 point.

    There is also a bonus point which everyone is eligible for. If you score higher than FFS' Scout Picks AND Differential Picks (i.e. 14 players), you will be awarded with a bonus point regardless of whether you were in the top 10% scoring positions or not.

    Welcome to the game, and good luck.

    ***** THE STANDINGS

    Your top three:

    1st - Lord (24pts)
    2nd - Ramboros (22pts)
    3rd - FFS Scout, Apples...Oranges (16pts)

    Start Bennett or Sigurdsson?

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bennett

    2. Rainer
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy, unless you think Wolves can finally get a CS.

    3. It’s a Knockaert
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bennet

    4. Dank Squid
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I was about to write "Siggy - pens", but Liverpool don´t give away pens (unless Lovren is playing). Bennett.

    5. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy

  10. It’s a Knockaert
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Assuming there are no major fa cup then I’d only have 5 or 6 players missing out in gw 33, so it may be easier to plan for than gw 31 and involve potentially no hits (I’d have to take a -8 between now and gw 31 to field a below average team). Opinions?

    1. Rainer
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Similar plans all round it seems.

      1. It’s a Knockaert
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        But with gw 33, I could start planning soon and avoid all hits?

        1. Rainer
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Most you'll buy for 31 will play in 33, so that helps. People will buy more for the blanks but could miss out on other points from teams that do blank.

          City & United should do well in the next two GWs, Wolves should this weekend... you have to weigh it all up.

  11. WE GO FOR IT
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Foster
    Pereira Robertson AWB
    Salah Sterling(c) Pogba Felipe
    Arnie Jimenez Rondon
    Patricio | Camarasa Digne Kelly

    1FT and 2m itb

    Planning to save. GTG?

  12. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Is Sterling worth TC - as FH 32 and BB 35 needs to be played outside DGW ?

    1. Rainer
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He could be. We could also get a 3rd DGW.

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Entirely up to you, but not for me.

    3. THAT'S LIFE
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      maybe watford next week is the time

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Good point- depends how likely he is for Pep rotation with CL midweek after

        1. THAT'S LIFE
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          yep if you could guarantee kun or sterling starting its tempting. think i will hold for Pool in 36 or a late double though.

    4. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I am doing it he more then likely starts how often can we say that about a city player.
      Plus City need to put on a show after Liverpool stole thier limelight last game.
      Setting down a marker etc

  13. Totti
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    what do u rather guys?

    A) d.luiz and arnold
    B) double up liverpool defence ( arnold and VVD)

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Rather double Liverpool attack so A

      1. Totti
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        thanks mate

  14. Fantasyamateur
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Alisson
    Doherty - Robertson - Lascelles - Pereira
    Salah - Son - Pogba
    Agüero - Jimenez - Rashford

    Bench: Richarlison, Laporte, Camarasa, Button.

    2FT, 1.3M ITB.

    Son & Laporte to Hazard & Diop looks like decent transfers? Probably capping Hazard and playing Diop for Lascelles as well.

  15. Gustavo
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Headache
    Bench one:

    A) Barnes
    B) Jimenez
    C) Fanderson

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Very close between A and C. Probably Anderson.

    2. Royal5
      • 13 Years

      Harvey or Ashley Barnes? Checked your team link, I guess you used your WC so I can´t see which one you have. Assuming you have Ashley "impossible to ignore" Barnes ... I would bench Anderson.

    Begovic Rich Digne Westwood. 2 ft 4.2 itb

    Both Rich and Digne are stinking up my team but they both play in the blanks...

    Can do Aguero, Rich -> Higuain, Sterling but will leave me with 10 for the first blank if I go ahead with the transfers I have planned over the next few. Thoughts?

      At least you do not have schindler a fella with great fixtures but an awful team!

      I think 10 players is enough for the blank remember many players will not even know about the blank at all!

    I was annoyed at myself for going for the 'safer' option of Anderson instead of Mkhitaryan just before Mkhitaryan got his big score.
    I basically bottled it.

    My questions are is a heavy priced defence a viable tactic for the blank gameweek. And is Demari Gray a step too far or a decent move?

    My team is currently

    Fab
    Robbo Bennett Perreira
    Salah mane Pogba Milivojevic
    Aguero Arnie Vardy

    Subs: Hamer, Camarasa, Bacuna, Schindler

    I had one FT and already done son to Mané earlier this week

    I have 1m ITB but thinking of doing Salah to Hazard?

    Thinking is that next week I will bring in TAA for Bacuna (don’t know what I was thinking getting him) and doing something like Camarasa to Maddy..... am I overthinking things and actually team above is GTG?

    1. DragonDino
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I would save that last FT mate personally.

      1. KennyKickIt127
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks, I’ve been sitting on the fence all night ... if hazard had form I’d prob have done it already

    2. cheeky moses
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      How are u gonna bring in TAA? You already have 3 pool

      1. KennyKickIt127
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        That’s why I wanted Salah out this week for Haz.....worth it?

        I’d then have Robbo TAA and mane ... midfield would then have maddy for Camarasa (possibly)

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Sorry I should clarify this to say...TAA coming in next week

      2. GREEN IS GOOD

        Magic?

        1. KennyKickIt127
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Sorry see my response above

    3. KennyKickIt127
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      So now you know my plan to get TAA in next week for Bacuna....does this make it a better decision to remove Salah for Hazard this week? ... it’s the only way TAA comes in and I think gives better coverage? Only problem is Haz doesn’t really have form but he will play in the blank weeks

    Lloris and Bednarek -> Fabianski and Alexander-Arnold for - 4?
    A - 4 is not so good, but as preparation for game week 31.
    Thank you!

    Is Brendan Rodgers a defensive minded manager?

    1. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      no, the opposite

      When he has the right players in attack usually gets them to score alot, Swansea scored a decent amount when he was in charge and Liverpool before Balotelli and Benteke did well. Celtic doesn´t count as they are so much better than the rest.

  25. damiang2233

    Shaw and Milivojevic for Bennett and F Anderson on FT?

    Good Move?

  26. Call Me Old Fashioned
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Start Schar or Ryan Bennett?

    1. AuFeld
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Schar is more volatile but has the higher ceiling. Bennett is the safe option.

      I'd go Schar.

      1. Call Me Old Fashioned
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Thank you for the reply.

        This is way I was going. Wolves lost to Palace, Huddersfield but beat Spurs, Chelsea. Don't seem to get it done vs lower teams

    On the scoutcast the consensus seemed to be that, regardless of your chip strategy, one of Sterling/Aguero should be owned for these next two games.

    Do you think that's true? Or is a ft with the next two GWs in mind too short term?

    1. GREEN IS GOOD
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'm doing it

  28. jackhammer1

    Sterling or pogba captain?

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Sterling.

    Anyone signed up to OWNA? https://ownafc.com/docs/OWNA-Football-Club-brochure.pdf

    Think I’m going to, the chance to make a big of a mess to a real team as I do to my fantasy team is too much to resist!

        They address that by saying there wasn’t enough interaction with that one but with this there will be daily decisions with this as it’s easy to implement with modern smartphone apps. Time will tell I guess

    What move to help fund Rich > Sterling (c)?

    A.) Auba > Barnes
    B.) Aguero > Barnes (would have to get him back next GW)
    C.) Aguero > Rashford (not playing GW 31)

    Honestly given the likelihood of Aguero's rest / 20 minute cameo, I am starting to think B is the best play
