The best forwards for a second Wildcard squad

A vacuum has been left in the forwards department by Harry Kane’s (£12.6m) recent injury – and those on the Wildcard this week have the opportunity to fill it with some decent options.

In this article we assess each striker by their goal threat, creativity and fixtures to find the best trio for the season run-in.

As we’ve used members data for this, only Fantasy Football Scout members can view our analysis.

Which forwards have the best goal threat?

    Son (C), Eriksen (vc)? One of them must start right?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      problem is if Son doesn't start he could still come off the bench late into the game

      be surprised if either benched tbh. both surely get a run tho so not as simple as you make out

    WC with BB35 in mind... pick 1 NOT to buy in:

    A: Deulofeu (ARS, hud, SOU)
    B: Moura (HUD, mci, BRI)
    C: JWP (WOL, new, wat)
    D: Jota (sou, BRI, ARS)

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

      B

  3. King Kun Ta
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    RMWCT

    Foster Ryan
    Doherty Vertonghen Laporte Valery Duffy
    Camarasa Sterling Son Jota Mane
    Murray Aguero Jimi

    2.9 itb

    Thinking Murray -> Deeney/Rash & Camarasa & ???/Deulofeu for next GW with BB.

    Want to wrap it up. Thanks for the FB and GL!

      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Looks solid, as long as happy to take -4 to do mid and striker changes for GW35 as agree need to ship out Murray and Camarasa

      1. King Kun Ta
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers Mike!

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

      Swap Ryan & Vert for Lloris & Dunk

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

      Who will you cap?

  4. jomikijiq
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Play one

    A) TAA
    B) Deeney

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

      B

  5. Mike2795647
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Need some help people, what do you reckon? On Wildcard and planning for BB in GW35

    A: Pogba and cheap saints or Brighton defender
    B: Deulofeu and Laporte
    C: other defender and mid for combined £13.3m

    Rest of team is

    Ryan / Leno
    Duffy / Coady / Cathcart / Valery / TBC
    Son / Erikson / Jota / Sterling / TBC
    Kun / Jiminez / Deeney

    Cheers all

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

      Deulofeu, Dunk & upgrade Coady to Doherty?

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

      Laporte and JWP ?

  6. Bruno Commando
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Hi everyone! Please take a look at my WC squad and let me know if it's gtg! Thanks!

    Ryan / Foster
    Robbo / Duffy / Jonny / Valery / Cathcart
    Mane / Son / Eriksen / KDB / Hojbjerg
    Kun / Jimenez / Vardy

    Also, should I go Robbo -> TAA and upgrade one of my defenders?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Great up top but the defence maybe found wanting. Your move could beef jonny up. Don't rate the wolves defence much other than Doherty. Maybe you could him if you really want a wolves defender?

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

    Lloris
    Robertson Duffy Dunk
    Mané Eriksen (C) Son Jota
    Aguero Vardy Jimenez

    Foster Doucouré Valery Boly

    WC, £0.5

    Chose Aguero+Doucouré instead of Sterling+Deeney due to security of starts.
    Just the Brighton double up with the idea of replacing Dunk ahead of GW35.
    Keeping Vardy because he's too in form to ignore and plays Newcastle+West Ham.
    Eriksen (C) since he'll definitely start and plays weakest defense on the league.

    Well Poch presser gave us nothing...
    Only things discussed:

    - Kane: injury looks bad bad they have to wait and see. Poch fears out for season
    - VAR: needs to just get consistent and sorted
    - Harry Winks: Happy with how he has performed
    - Son: Is playing with good attitude and deserves the returns he is getting

    Nothing on Alli. Nothing on rotation or who might start

    Nice....

  9. HamezMace

    5 years, 1 month ago

    Looking at the minutes of Spurs defenders there is no obvious choice for a player safe from rotation.
    Any Spurs fans want to pick someone, other than Lloris who looks likely to start the next three PL games?

    1. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Have Vert at the moment

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

      Not a Spurs fan but I just sold Alderweireld due to the risk and brought in Llorente ... it’s impossible to call

    3. Earn your Spurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Vertonghen only one sure imho.

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

        Cheers, why did he miss the Chelsea game?

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years

            Thank you.

  10. Ronnie
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry bottomed last time.

    Best option?

    A) TAA + Lacazette + Vardy
    B) Trippier + Aguero + Deeney

    1. One More Hit
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Have you got any cash to merge in TAA, Aguero and Vardy?

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

        Nah not even close!

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

      B for me

    3. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B

      1. King Kun Ta
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Maybe Vert instead of Trip?

    4. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      What to do you think of my think team a few posts above Ronnie?

      Different front line to most. No city attack could be good advantage as well.

  12. One More Hit
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed, RP sorry

    I'm carrying 2.1m in the bank, with a view to going

    GW35 - Vardy to Deeney
    GW36 - Eriksen to Salah.

    That will still leave with a lot of left over cash. Was planning on bringing in some Utd players in 37 or 38, but should I reinvest the cash while still on a wild card? Can't really see anyone I'd want to change up and my team is pretty 'template' reading around here.

  13. HanS14
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Start one

    A) TAA
    B) Doherty
    C) Jota

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

      C

  14. Neetan
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Currently have Aguero & Jimenez, who for the 3rd striker? 10M to spend, also thinking with GW 35 in mind...

    A) Firminho (CHE & car)
    B) Deeney (ARS & hud, SOU)
    C) Vardy (NEW & wham)

    1. Earn your Spurs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      All good choices. I'm with Deeney and use the balance to upgrade elsewhere

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

        Not so sure about Leno, Digne, CHO, Barnes

      • Werner Bremen
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Why Barnes? Go for Deeney

    2. Chilli Heatwave

      Best combo:

      A) TAA / De Bruyne

      B) Bednarek / Sterling

    9. Tmel
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      a) Hojberg
      b) Camarasa then FT to Hojberg next week

      1. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I'd probably go with A - can't see Camarasa getting a monster haul, and you may need that FT elsewhere if there are injuries/suspensions elsewhere.

    10. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      GTG? (No wildcard)

      Ryan - (Boruc)
      TAA - Jonny - Robbo - (Luiz - Clyne)
      Hazard - Sterling - Son (C) - Eriksen - (Fraser)
      Jimenez - Vardy - Barnes

        i like A

    12. JuulKrapuul
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Whatever happens this weekend, I will be able to say that I had that player in my draft this week.

    13. yanky
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      a) foster and tripper
      b) lloris and TAA

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

        A for the double, B for the run in

    14. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Keep Mane or swap him for a DGWer too (Ramsey/Eriksen)?

      1. King Kun Ta
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Next GW BB

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

        Would have Eriksen for Mane if you save a FT to get Mane in again for HUD GW 36

        1. King Kun Ta
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Thanks! Still have Deeney instead of Murray (c)? 😉
