De Bruyne set to dictate Gameweek 34+ for FPL’s top 10k managers

Kevin De Bruyne (£10.8m) is set to hold massive sway over the outcome of Gameweek 34+.

The Belgian has been captained by a whopping 65.5% of the top 10,000 FPL managers ahead of Wednesday’s meeting with Newcastle United.

It has been some time since a player enjoyed such a large majority in the scrap for the armband, which has made for effective ownership inside the top 10k of 161.6%.

By comparison, Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m) has received backing from just 19.9% of the top 10k for the midweek trip to Aston Villa.

The Portuguese international still enjoys effective ownership at this level of 112.7% but those who have handed him the armband will be sincerely hoping De Bruyne somehow underperforms, given how many have captained him instead.

As Fernandes and De Bruyne are the two players with over 100% effective ownership in the top 10k this week, those who went outside of the pair for captaincy will be feeling the nerves in Gameweek 34+.

After Fernandes, Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) is the third-most-popular captain option among this season’s best managers, backed by just 3.9% of them.

For all of Bournemouth’s poor defending since the restart, just 2.5% have decided to captain Harry Kane (£11.0m), and 2.3% went for Anthony Martial (£8.3m) ahead of the trip to Villa Park.

In fact, both Kane and Spurs colleague Son Heung-min (£9.8m) act as differentials for Gameweek 34+ as neither player comes into the round owned by more than a quarter of managers in the top 10k.

The South Korean is the more popular of the two, owned by 24.1%, while Kane sits on just 16.3%. Potentially exciting for those who have decided to play the fixture, as well as ominous for those not convinced by Spurs’ form.

As you can see from the table above, neither player was able to break into the loose template among the top 10k.

The most notable new faces are the budget options, namely Mason Greenwood (£4.6m) and Phil Foden (£5.4m).

The Manchester United forward’s brace was enough for him to form the perfect replacement for Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£6.4m), who is still goalless since the Premier League restart.

Interestingly, Foden breaks into the template at the expense of Christian Pulisic (£7.2m), but not because the American dropped in ownership.

Before rewarding his owners in the Gameweek 34+ trip to Crystal Palace, Pulisic’s backing in the top 10k rose by 1.2 percentage points.

Foden’s support rose by a larger margin, resulting in 29.3% ownership in the top 10k for the upcoming meeting with Newcastle – although out of the two, Pulisic marginally edges effective ownership (28.3% to 28.2%) on account of receiving more attention for the captain’s armband.

Martial continues to turn the screw on his ownership, each week adding another steady increase, this time at the expense of Salah.

The Frenchman has risen from 42.2% top 10k ownership to 51% while Salah has dropped from 58.6% to 46.3%.

By comparison, there has been very little change in defence, as can be expected with the Gameweeks running out for Fantasy managers.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka‘s (£5.5m) one-pointer against Bournemouth has cost him roughly 5% ownership in the top 10k, with Serge Aurier (£5.0m) overtaking him as the fifth-most-popular defender.

The best Fantasy managers of 2019/20 have been somewhat sparing with their chips in Gameweek 34+.

Just 2% of them deployed their Wildcard for the midweek round, although it was the most popular chip played before Tuesday’s deadline.

It means that 6.3% of managers in the top 10k are saving the second Wildcard for use between now and Gameweek 38+, although they only have four more opportunities before the end of the campaign.

The Wildcard template for Gameweek 34+ is not hugely different from the overall squad picture in the top 10k.

The midfield five remain the same, with some slight ownership differences, while Emiliano Martínez (£4.3m) is, not surprisingly, preferred to David Button (£3.9m) as the back-up goalkeeper.

Cesar Azpilicueta (£6.0m) was included by 30% of Gameweek 34+ Wildcarders although he immediately disappointed as Chelsea conceded twice at Crystal Palace.

Of particular interest is the choice of forwards, especially as that position has proved hard to be excited by recently. 

Greenwood was an overwhelming favourite of these Wildcarders, with Raúl Jiménez (£8.3m) doing just enough to stay in 53% of new-look squads. With little else of great options, it is Danny Ings (£7.3m) who proved to be the third-most-popular forward among Gameweek 34+ Wildcarders in the top 10k.

A smattering of the top 10k managers Free Hitted for Gameweek 34+, although still only 1.4% of them.

It means that the majority of those operating at this level, just over 56%, are waiting for the perfect time to play the temporary Wildcard, perhaps with Gameweek 38+ in mind.

As for those who pulled the trigger on it for the midweek action, there was a heavy focus on Manchester City, Manchester United and Spurs.

Kane and Son both feature in the Free Hit template, as do De Bruyne, Fernandes, Foden and Greenwood.

    Perez definitely touched the ball, took it away from Mustafis sliding tackle, look at the back post angle

      Yep.

      That isn't to say Vardy was offside. It looks like he may have been on after Perez touches it anyway but they spent about 3 minutes looking at the wrong passage of play. It's just frustrating.

        I'm sorry, but that ball's rotation doesn't alter at all. Only after the bounce.

          Yeh this wth, there is literally no contact there

            That’s a bad angle, look from the back post, you see it clearly

              Not sure where I would find that but from that angle it really looks like theres no contact there. The ball skims off the wet surface when it bounces so maybe thats what u think is this "perez touch"?

                • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                His stud, takes spin off the ball and changes the angle, pushing ball toward goal

                  3 years, 8 months ago

                  I've watched it like 15 times now and the flight and rotation of the ball is not affected at all, his foot just goes right over the top. Obv the ball is spinning slightly so when it bounces it slows the rotation down a tiny bit due to friction and the ball turns in a little bit due to the spin, but I'm sorry, he literally does not touch it.. might have to agree to disagree on this one 😉

        You can see by the cut of the grass that’s he just ahead of both the ball and def.

        All said, not clear and obvious; probably balances the terrible call against nacho earlier

      He didn't. It bounced on a wet sod of grass and looked like Perez had touched it. You can see the spray of water.

        Not point explaining. It is obvious to people with vision.

          Yes it’s impossible that you are wrong.

            Correct, because I have eyes, that work.

        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Why is the water at all relevant? No matter whether Perez touched it or not of course water is going to bounce up once the ball hits the grass lol

        1. Lucy2019
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          You didn't do physics at school did you?

          1. Begbie.
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Rather than just insult me, please explain to me how the water splashing once the ball hits the grass is at all proof Perez couldn't have possibly touched it. Regardless of who the last touch was off of, water is going to spray up once the ball bounces off the grass anyway. It's an utterly irrelevant point.

            Continue to just insult people though. Great attitude you've got.

    I don't think dropping Jimmi for Deeney at home to Norwich is the worst decision in the history of FF, but it's got to be up there in the top three 🙁

    1. Begbie.
      • 10 Years

      Nah you're good. I once captained Simone Zaza which is probably the worst decision in the history of FPL lol

          I have triple captained Andy Carroll on my first or second season when I was chasing my ML leader. At least it was dgw.

            • 10 Years

            If he was playing Arsenal in that GW it was probably the logical choice in fairness lol

        Aye,
        Everyone has s template, he was in my team, didn't want to take a hit for Ksne so took a chance, was hoping he got a pen. Never happened so move on. At least Pulusic pulled me out of the shite

    3. Camzy

      Hey at least you didn't captain him!

      Watch Kane blank vs Bournemouth. I swear it's the Cardiff at home syndrome all over again from last season.

    Ive got exact money for Jimmy to Vardy.
    form and fixtures suggest it could be party time.. shall i just pull the trigger?

    1. Herman Toothrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      I just did Nketiah to Vardy. I'd go for it

    2. michaelington
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Apart from ballmouth which fixtures?
      Sheffield United don’t concede a lot, United look solid. Spurs can be hit or miss but wouldn’t expect a rout.

    Still dont get it how that wasnt offside ffs

      Was going to stay as called on the pitch, not clear and obvious

      1. Tempestic

        Clear and obvious has nothing to do with offsides

          VAR overturning a goal?

            • 5 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Hmm alright maybe they've changed the ruling but when someones toe is 0.01 cm offside its still always ruled offside? Not very "clear and obvious" if u ask me

            1. Utopsis
              • 4 Years
              3 years, 8 months ago

              It seems like they're not being as strict anymore on toenails being offside (can't remember in which game last GW, but VAR reviewed a marginal offside call and the on-field decision was upheld).

              Remains to be seen how consistently it's applied I guess.

  7. Magic Zico

    2FT as of now Salah > Antonio, Nketiah > Vardy, Y or N?

    1. Danstoke82

      Not a fan of Salah > Antonio if I’m honest

    2. FPLord

      I might have to do the same with Mane, but be prepared that one of them gets double figures against burnley

        • 5 Years

        Antonio next two and final game look good, Vardy > Auba GW37. Think that would outscore Salah ... also they are differentials still, need to climb!

                  I wouldn’t want to lose any of them for Vardy. Fair play to you if you go for it. Good luck. I bottled Salah to Sterling(c) today for -4.

                    Not the Vardy but the Nketiah and benching DCL. DCL will play again the last two GWs. So Salah DCL v Antonio Vardy ... interesting!

        Thanks mate at least some support here

    6. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I've planned the exact same moves

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Let's see at the end of the GW ... as of now ...

  8. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Everyone jumping back on Vardy now lol

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Party

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Typical, I had first few gameweek after the restart

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          *him

    2. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy v Bournemouth is a mouth watering prospect though

    3. Lucy2019
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      No one serious. Casuals might do though.

    4. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Knee jerkers. Nobody would buy him if he blanked

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Wrong

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

      Im in next GW. Will probably be more like a funeral than a party against Bournemouth.

    6. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      That’s 50 points he’s contributed last 6 gameweeks including captaincy vs Villa

      5 goals & 9 baps in those 6 GW’s...

      Bournemouth & Sheffield Utd up next

      He’s long overdue a bloody pen or two as well

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        SHU is no easy fixture or goalfest

        1. Coys96
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          He'll score there

        2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Vardy doesn’t need it to be easy though

        3. BobbyDoesNotLook
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Could be with Shu post break form.

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        *8 baps tbf

    7. Babit1967
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Done Jimmy to Vardy 2 days ago, had a feeling that he would score v Arsenal

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Good shout, so far!

  9. No Kane No Gain
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Until the end of the season, Willian or pulisic?! Who gets more points.

    Value is identical.

    1. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Willian

    2. Lucy2019
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Puli. They wont get pens every game.

      1. JabariParkersEyelid
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        They didn't get a pen today and willian outscored.

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Willian

    4. FPLord
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      No one can tell you. Pulisic looks better, but Willian is racking up,the points imo

      1. BobbyDoesNotLook
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        This but I would still pick Puli. (Even though I got him for some five weeks during autumn and got zero returns)

      2. Rojo's Modern Life
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Not in your opinion... In fact!

    5. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Puli

    6. Ange Ball
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      That's like asking for lottery numbers they both doing well.

    7. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Most here will say Pulisic because they own him. Willian will score more points

  10. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Dcl to Vardy
    Vardy to Kane maybe next week since I've already missed the Bournemouth fixture and Vardy has tough run in

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      ? Sorry

  11. michaelington
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Really need two fpl accounts. Majority of my decisions are based on people chasing me. One for rank, one for ML, is this frowned upon?

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      It's not allowed is what it is.

      Not sure how they check that stuff mind you.

      IP address?

      I mean most people have numerous emails these days

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        They wouldn't check

        IP address wouldn't be accurate as more than 1 can person play fpl per household

        1. Stupendous
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          True. Then how do they check if people have multiple teams?

          1. Coys96
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            I doubt they can

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      You can with two email addresses. I'm not sure how it helps over the course of a season but you could dump the teams that don't start well so that you get off to a good start.

      Prepared to be compared with Pol Pot on here if you get caught though.

    3. Firminooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I dont care what people do in my minileagues. I am nr 1 in all my moneyleagues, 5k if I win. I dont bother about my rivals, just play my game to get most points and a good OR.

      1. Tempestic
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        this, like surely the 2 go hand in hand

      2. Utopsis
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Bosh - good going! I've been in the money last couple seasons but a major mid-season wobble this year cost me greatly

  12. Fernando Torres
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    A) Garcia
    B) Aurier

    For 4th defender (benched most weeks)

    1. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      You dont bench 5m oop defender most weeks.

    2. Can’t beat em so&hell…
      • 12 Years

      Aurier playing right wing!!

    DCL to Vardy feels so goooood

    1. Camzy

  14. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Should never plan transfers of course it all changes tomorrow again!

    But right now looking at Salah and Nketiah to Vardy and Antonio for free in gweek 35, which then gives me cash for DCL to Ings in Gweek 36!

    Thoughts?

    Pope Martinez
    TAA Maguire Doherty Aurier Fernandez
    Salah KDB Martial Bruno Mahrez
    Jimi DCL Nketiah

  15. Ginkapo FPL

    3. Gudjohnsen

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Justin for Alonso. I realise its good, just being an arse

        1. Gudjohnsen
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Yeah, I never, ever own Vardy at the right time.

  17. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Which one should I pick?

    Antonio
    Pulisic
    Willian

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      For prom? Antonio

    2. Cheeto__Bandito

    3. Magic Zico

  20. Camzy

    0 from 0 how am I doing?

    Perfect outcome for tonight.

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Better than my 4 from 1

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Was it though? Combine the EO of Willy, Pulisic, Auba and Vardy and you're looking at a high-ish average from 1 played for most teams. Of course those players could have done a lot more damage so it's not that bad but wouldn't say it's perfect

    3. ElliotJHP
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I'll take 2 from Kiko considering how those first 5 mins went

  21. Ange Ball
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Just reading comment on here regards to Giroud goal did not watch first 20mims but it does seem Pulisic touched it. Owners let's contact fpl lol I need the points

    1. Lucy2019
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Perez touched it.

      1. Ange Ball

    Early thoughts on 2FT

    A. Mane, Nketiah > Pulisic, Vardy
    B. Martial, Nketiah > Pulisic, Greenwood

    Pulisic could also be Antonio after his performance

  25. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    A - Rashford & pulisic
    B - Martial & jimenez

    1. Twisted Saltergater

      3 years, 8 months ago

      B

  26. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Chase Bournemouth with Jimenez to Vardy or Nketiah to Ings? Southampton could finish the season strongly, I reckon.

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      2nd one

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Depends who starts if you do the 1st one

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I'd bench Ings vs Man U, then have a selection headache the GW after.

        1. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          I'd do A then. Unless you have lots of City rotation nightmare players and need Ings as cover on the bench

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            yeah, good point.

      2. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Oh, with the 1st one, Nketiah would be on my bench anyway and I should have a strong starting 11. Would quite like Ings for the run in, so this is a chance to move early.

  27. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Alonso >

    a) AWB
    b) Azpi
    c) someone else £7m of less?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Stick.

      1. Fuddled FC
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Even though Alonso has been dropped!?

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          They conceded 2 today and games are coming so fast that's there's bound to be rotation in the fullback position. Didn't think Reece James did that well so Azpilicueta could switch back to the right, or simply rested for one game.

          Chelsea have great fixtures so not worth getting rid.

          1. The Suspended One
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Reece has a couple mistakes today also

  28. ElliotJHP
    • 11 Years

    Just to four days to ponder bringing in Pulisic or Vardy

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy this week and Puli the week after

      1. ElliotJHP
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Aye looking at GW36 FH for Chelsea so Vardy looks likely

    2. Ange Ball
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy no brainer

  29. Hits from the Bong
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    How does Salah + Jimenez to Sterling + Vardy sound? Worth a hit?

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      no

      1. Hits from the Bong
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Really? Think Wolves are running out of steam and Liverpool on the beach. Man City will be smarting and playing for their places, with great fixtures too, and Vardy has his 100 and looks good again

  30. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    I have no idea why I kept Vardy for Palace and Arsenal (and started over Jimmy)... I guess it was lack of better options without taking a hit, rather than patience.

    However, now I have sought after captain material for Bournemouth before finally offloading.
