Five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman: The stand-out stats for Triple Gameweek 35

With Manchester United playing three times and another eight clubs featuring twice, Triple Gameweek 35 will be a pivotal part of our Fantasy Premier League (FPL) seasons.

So, with that in mind, I’m going to pull out some relevant player and team statistics ahead of Friday’s deadline.

It makes sense to focus on this week’s round of fixtures but I’m also keeping one eye on the run-in, with differentials at West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur also making an appearance.

Shall we begin?



Earlier this week, I was fortunate enough to join fellow Pro Pundits Lateriser and Zophar on The FPL Wire.

We ran through all the teams involved in Triple Gameweek 35 and also talked targets for the run-in.

The chat complements this column and goes a bit deeper into some of the subjects covered, so if you’re into that kind of thing you can check it out via the link below:

    Guaita or Mendy as GW this week?

    1. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      I've gone Mendy

      1. Reece’s Pieces
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        I risked Guaita

  2. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Do you think United's TGW is a trap? How many points and clean sheets do you expect from them?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Maybe

      1 CS probably

    2. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Don't think a trap
      Only Shaw from their back line for me as not sold on defence

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        No way Shaw starts 3. He will start v Villa and Pool. So that's 1 cs

  3. Werner Bremen
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Still gonna captain Salah

    1. linkafu
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Same here

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      This

  4. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Pulisic anyone?

    a) guess Tuchel's team to much of a headache
    b) Mount a better option
    c) don't be silly

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      I've got him. If you haven't got much to lose, I figure a 0.25% EO explosive differential is good to have.

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Yeah I gotta agree with this, few weeks ago Greenwood was considered a crazy punt and now look, Pulisic could be similar

    2. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      C

  5. JoBro

    Holding going to play in double gameweek with Luiz injured?

    1. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Or Chambers. I think Holding will come back in

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Luiz was in full training yesterday

    3. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Even I don't know haha

    Kane>DCL, Vydra>Watkins, Rudiger>Digne for a -4 - good moves to give me the team below?

    Mendy (Forster)
    TAA Digne Shaw (Holding) (Dallas)
    Salah Bruno(c) Son Jota (Lingard)
    DCL Watkins Nacho

    1. iCon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Why Rudiger out? Planning for GW36 or you don't think he'll play GW35?

    Coady + Pereria > Ward + Greenwood?

    will play BB this week and my bench is Lingard, Dallas, Reguilion

    1. linkafu
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      For free yes

    2. GE
      • 7 Years

      Good moves

  9. GE
    • 7 Years

    Mendy -> Pickford maybe for building for blank GW36?
    Or something else? 🙂 appreciate some thoughts!

    (2FT, 1.1 itb)

    Mendy
    TAA/Shaw/Castagne
    Salah/Bruno/Son/Lingard/Jota
    Kane/Nacho

    Bench: Forster, Rudiger, Holding, Davis

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years

      Could do. Or upgrade rudiger ?

      1. GE
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Maybe, up to max 5.8, not so many in that bracket I want, maybe Regulion/Aurier or Coleman?

    2. TMouse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Guita? For saves, double and play 36

      1. GE
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Good shout, maybe better than Pickford even Pickford plays SHU in GW36?

  10. The Train Driver
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    A. Kane + El Ghazi
    B. Son + Watkins

    Which pair would you rather have for the remaining gameweeks?

    1. linkafu

      B

    2. iCon

      Not interested in Bale?

      1. The Train Driver
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        I already have Kane and Son in my team, not sure which one to take out.

    3. waltzingmatildas

    I only have Greenwood from Man U

    Are either Bruno or Maguire/Shaw essential?

    1. Herman Toothrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 23 hours ago

      Triple something or another

  14. Yank Revolution
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Here's me free hit team -- chasing a 40 pt. deficit in my ML.

    Guaita (McCarthy)
    TAA/Shaw/Castagne (Phillips, Mitchell)
    Bruno/Salah/Greenwood/Zaha (Ward-Prowse)
    Vardy/Iheanacho/DCL

    What do you all think? I eschewed Everton/Soton D.

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Looks like you're chasing 🙂 I'd be happy with that team this week.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Thanks Tums

        1. TOLV TUMS
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 day ago

          Sure, good luck!

    2. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Looks good, quite different to mine but I can't fault yours!

    3. linkafu
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      JWP over Zaha.

    4. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Looks very good, as it’s nearly the same as my FH team 😉

      Uncertain of Guaita (Alisson/Hendo/Schmeichel?), Castagne (Digne, Robertson) and who to play from Zaha and JWP

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Thanks Rama (and those above).

        Palace has the best defensive fixtures this TGW, I have Castagne to cover Leicester, Shaw to cover for Man U and TAA to cover for Pool (you mentioned those three keepers who I have coverage for in D). Considered Digne, but Everton ALWAYS seem to concede and I have DCL. I think Zaha has to be the one, they're also number one this week for offense this TGW according to ticker.

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 day ago

          Sounds very good, YR, convinced me on all, only choice now is between Digne and Castagne.

          And who starts and not for United tonight

  15. TOLV TUMS
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Play Leno or Martinez? Please don't laugh 🙂

    1. KAALI_DAAL

      Marty

    2. Botman and Robben

      Martinez

  16. KAALI_DAAL
    • 3 Years

    BB this lot?

    Johnstone
    Ghazi
    Dallas
    Aina

    1. KAALI_DAAL
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Replace Ghazi with Lingz

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Yeah I’d say so, when else would you play it I guess is the question

  17. -GK22-
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Who to star this week

    A) wood vs Fulham
    B) son vs leeds

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      that's really tough. Wood v FUL will be a diff pick if that matters to you and where you are in your leagues etc.

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        This, depends if chasing or leading. I’d lean Son just because he’s Son though

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Son

  18. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Is Kane going to drop tonight?

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Looks like, Son too.

  19. Ruinenlust
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Martinez or Guaita?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Guaita, better fixtures

  20. Thomas Magnum
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    A few questions if you could spare me a minute
    1) which United defender is best to bring in? AWB worth the extra money or go cheaper
    2) start Rudiger (double with Mendy) or Lingard (eve)
    3) Crazy going Benteke over DCL? Better fixtures after all

    1. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      1. Maguire
      2. Rudiger
      3. DCL

    2. iL PiStOlErO
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Shaw
      Lingz
      Yes

  21. Assisting the assister
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Thoughts appreciated on this please

    - Kane + Son + Raph > DCL+Bruno+Greenwood -4

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      I’d say only yes if you’re not going to want to captain Kane again this season

      1. Ruinenlust
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        He can get Kane in again next week?

        1. Thomas Magnum
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 day ago

          He could... if he wants to take another -4 and most likely cop having to buy him back for more

      2. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        This

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      I'm thinking of a similar move.

      Kane, Son & Pereira to Bruno, Greenwood & DCL.

      But I'll get Kane back in GW36 for a hit

  22. House Frey Wedding Planner
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Martinez
    Rudiger, Shaw, Phillips, Castagne, Dias
    Mount, Son, Salah, Lingard, Jota
    Kane, Vardy, Nacho

    2FT, 0.7itb, no chips left

    Only good move I can see is Son & Vardy out for Bruno & DCL. Would mean taking a -8 in gw36 to field 11.

    Should I do this? Or take a risk going without Bruno and minimise taking hits?

  23. FPL_Motty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    If you don't mind Bruno's 200% EO against you

    1. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      My ML rival has Bruno as well. Not having him for this triple gw scares me

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        What’s the point +- between you two? How much would the -8 effect you compared to if Bruno goes points crazy

        1. House Frey Wedding Planner
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 day ago

          I'm 40 pts ahead

          1. Thomas Magnum
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 1 day ago

            I think I’d do it then, if Bruno gets say 20 points or something it’ll make the -8 seem like nothing. All depends also how many points you see Bruno actually getting, anything less than -8 of course not worth it

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Do you really think his EO will be 200%?

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Definitely, or really close...EVERYONE is going to captain him.

  24. iL PiStOlErO
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Just a thought - TC captain Henderson anyone?

    1. KAALI_DAAL
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Eww

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        I know but everyone else should rotate. Want to do Bruno or Rash but games are not even that good. Will try to look dgw players, this is triple utd is just too much combinations.

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      TC on a goalie is a waste

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        True but it is 3 games and Just imagine 2cs and some save pts. It would be great, but yes…hardly.

    3. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Would rather it on an outfielder tbh but I see where you’re coming from. Only keeper I’d ever consider to TC would be Ederson

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Cheers Magnum.

  25. ResultatFar
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    DCL + Saka -> Adams + Greenwood for a -4? Only way to get in Greenwood

  26. RWB_1991
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Which 2 from Zaha, Rashford & Greenwood?

    1. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Zaha Greenwood

      1. RWB_1991
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 1 day ago

        Cheers. Exactly what I was thinking

  27. Ruinenlust
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Odds of Utd getting at least one penalty over the 3 games?

    1. Chandler Bing
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      You can't predict a penalty. But I expect them to score against Leicester and Villa. Pool too if they decide to go all out attack.

  28. Chandler Bing
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 day ago

    Best keeper on FH? Budget not an issue. Allison?

    1. Ruinenlust
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Hendo

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Allison, Schmeichel or Hendo

    3. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Probably Henderson but if you have 3 Utd outfielders then Guaita is a decent option

    4. iL PiStOlErO
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 day ago

      Henderson
