Skonto Rigga It’s time for another gander at the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) set-piece table, to see which top-flight players have the responsibility for penalties, free-kicks and corners at their respective clubs.
Based on the official Opta data in our Premium Members Area, here is a breakdown of the latest four rounds of matches.
For a general overview and estimated set-play pecking order at all 20 clubs, check out our Set Pieces tab.
Salaaaah
Oooooo, didn't mean to make you cry.
I'm going to punt Calum Wilson for gameweek 18+19 before wildcarding in 20. Decent roll of the dice I think.
Decent but would wait until the very last second to do this with his injury record
Him and Nkunku vying for my affections.
Wouldn't mind punting him myself
Why are you WC on 20? I was originally planning to do it on 19. Now I'm waffling and might do it now.
They do feel like Wilson type of fixtures, though Isak was very good against Forest away last season. We might even see Howe putting Isak on the left again if Gordon and Miggy are tired.
Short term who is better out of Konsa or Diego Carlos?! Looking to buy one to start the next 2 gameweeks
Much of a muchness, I'd go Carlos, but that is just because I am listening to Santana right now.
Konsa
A trusted Villa FPL account said Konsa was nailed, so I’d go there
Konsa - if cash plays then Konsa moves back to right CB at expense of Carlos
Have I missed something are we on an international break?
Is Newcastle in search of a new GK?
They probably should be
Maybe
DDG rumours have been circulating and he could start straight away as an unattached free agent but it's probably just newspaper talk.
He wouldn't be able to play until the January window opens.
Lloris apparently. Although he's a bit suspect himself.
Best pick to replace Ait Nouri?
a)Davies
b)Konsa
c)Badiashile
B
B
B
cheers all
So. Did we all decide on Haaland?
Yeah I'm (c) him
Do nothing
He's out for me but most are undecided or holding
Wait until Friday, as by then we will know if he trained on Thursday.
If u had 5.4 mill which midfielder are you choosing? Will have to play him at some points but mainly be on bench
Palmer?
Apart from palmer cause I already have him, soz should’ve mentioned that.
Tavernier
Tavernier
Salah,Son and the other African/Asian fellas are leaving after which GW?
20
Mbeumo one pen?
He needs one of those fancy multi colour pens that ETH writes his notes with during matches.
What did the Buddah and Jesus have in common?
They both, through deep meditation and intense self enquiry, awoken to whst they truly are.
But the question we need to ask is Jesus worth his price tag or are we better with a Solanke or Raul type player.
.thankyou, your mate , your friend, your buddy, Carl.
Both did sod all in the fight against Lord Voldemort.
Jesus is not worth his FPL price, unless you get him for a bargain like Judas did..
For those of you like me who are considering FH this GW because they can't field an 11 without hits there are likely to be GW's with more upside later in the season.
GW29 will have up to 8 PL teams and their GW29 opponents blacking due to the FA Cup QF's that weekend.
GW34 will have up to 4 PL teams and their GW34 opponents blacking due to the FA Cup SF's that weekend, and there are likely to be doubles in midweek from GW29 for those still not in the FA Cup, and maybe for City & Brentford from GW18, & fixtures from GW26 postponed due to EFL Cup Final.
GW37 is likely to be a big double accommodating the remaining postponed fixtures (although some of these could be accommodated into GW29 if neither team reaches the FA Cup 5th round)
GW34 is the one that intrigues me the most potentially 11 DGWers in a week when others are struggling to field an 11 due to the blanks.
I "wasted" my FH early last season. I still navigated the later blanks and DGWs, and rose up the ranks by going against the chip strategy pushed by all the content creators.
I think the only part of the chip strategy that the template got right was the combo of wildcard 2 into BB dgw. That reduced loads of people's season for some momentum.
Fewer big DGW's this season tho.
FA Cup qualification dependent.
*rescued
I need to get a better keyboard input
Autocorrect etc still getting me.
Yeah, I probably got lucky that some of the FOMO picks during that period didn't produce.
Yes I've got no idea when I'm going to BB. GW37 will probably be too late due to rotation, and GW34 is likely to have blanks. So I may end up playing it in a SGW or small DGW.
Def main concern, quite set rest of squad, luckily no injuries!
A) Udogie double up (Have Porro)
B) Burn (when he comes back)
C) Gusto
D) Ben White (Have Saliba)
Cheers
A
Wait and see what happens with Gusto and Burn.
Arsenal and Spurs defences are not worth a double up.
Unless attacking upside in Spurs but I agree
Ideally you're playing a goalkeeper and 3 defenders from 4 different teams.
Villa at home are a clear exception.
Any thoughts on who to start:
A - Leno
B - Areola
Lenny
Have both, starting Leno.
Leno for sure. Areola is allergic to clean sheets.
Nice one Leno it is
Should be a good game at Newcastle tonight...
With Milan in town.
Guess it could also be a bit of a battle getting into the ground.
Score predictions?
2-1 or 2-2?
Or 0-1.
We hardly laid a glove on Milan at the San Siro, but hopefully at home we can get at them much more. My main worry is that Giroud always seemed to score against Newcastle. I'll go for 2-1.
Alvarez on the bench tonight
Need him to start up front against Palace
Liverpool squad for EL:
Gomez, Endo, Konate, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Jones, Gakpo, Elliott, Tsimikas, Gravenberch, Chambers, Pitaluga, Scanlon, Gordon, Doak, McConnell, Kelleher, Koumas, Quansah, Hill, Bradley, Mrozek.
Rests for Alisson, Trent, Virgil and Salah.
Hopefully just rests. Interesting to see if Nunez starts and if so how many minutes he plays with the United game in mind.
Same with Tsimikas
He starts because he’s not nailed, so I’m not surprised
Draft League:
Any transfers here you wouldn't do? Why?
A. Kudus > Tavernier
B. Dubravka > Martinez
C. Tsimikas > Mykolenko
D. Joao Pedro > Semenyo
Semenyo will probably be going afcon with Ghana right so probably not that one
Makes sense, i didnt even consider that. My idea is just to bring him in the next 3 GW against Luton, Forrest, and Fulham.
Wouldn't do any except B
Folks on WC may want to consider Gusto as their cheap defender
https://twitter.com/ConnCFC/status/1734871211497177218?t=a_HC0P_ayfoxbYMIQqGscw&s=19
Greqt news for us who still hasn't been able to drop him
Last time he was fit he didnt start automatically though
He'd lost his place without James tbf.
So benched one game in GW10 against Brentford without James means he lost his place?
He lost his place because he didn't even bother defending a cross
Best def upto 4.9m?
Pau probably, although I like Mykolenko at only 4.5. Great bench option and currently 5th highest scoring def.
Pau
Everton have turned fixtures perhaps
Dubravka injured???
Something about nursing a shoulder problem which kept him out of a training session. Think it was the same session as Gordon went awol.
Have not read anything about it, and tbh I think Dubravka starts tonight
Take a hit to move out Cash or avoid the hit and start him?
If he starts in their Europa game, he likely doesn't feature at the weekend.
I'd get rid for Pau, but wait till Friday obviously.
HI chaps. Simple one...
Saka to Son? Yay or Nay? Have exact funds
any day of the week !!!
Nah, I wouldn't.
I would be afraid not to own Son - not so much Saka when you watch the games
I mean, Son definitely looks more lethal. For me this is trading apples for apples. Both are dawgs that can produce every game.
if that's your only option to get Son, then yea--just because Arsenal spread the scoring out across their attacking players and Son seems to be involved in every goal Spurs score. So, I feel like Sake will still return consistently but just one return per match, whereas Son seems to be hitting double-figures more often.
Yes Son more likely to get those big hauls you need if captaining.
YAY!
Reposting…
Dubravka Turner
Taylor Gabriel Cash Kabore Udogie
Palmer Martinelli Diaby Son Salah
Darwin Haaland Archer
1 FT 2.2 ITB. Anything worth a hit? Best option?
A) Archer > Solanke
B) Archer + Diaby > Watkins + Soucek for -4
C) Archer + Cash > Solanke + Pau for -4
D) Diaby + Darwin > Saka + Solanke for -4
Haaland might well be.
He's out gw18 and possibly either side of then too.
I like option A
Early thoughts.. if no more upcoming injuries,
could I get away with this defence?
Maguire -> Senesi with FT
Dubravka (Turner)
Zinchenko Tsimikas Senesi (Gusto Trippier*)
Mitoma seems to be a rotation risk in poor form now. Keep or sell?
I'd be happy to drop him tbh.
Wou would you bring in?
Managed to finesse a guy in my draft league to trade me Son and Solanke for Mitoma and Joao Pedro.
Any Areola or Sanchez updates?
Team is in disarray with injuries and suspensions (6 in the squad) so need advice please. 1 FT & 0.2 in the bank.
Sanchez - (injured)
Trips - (suspended) Gabriel Tsmikas
Palmer Bowen Son Salah
Alvarez Darwin Haaland - (injured)
Areola - (injured) Taylor - (suspended) Baldock (injured) Nakamba
Semi-repost. Totally flummoxed about WC.
1: WC now. Solve defense/GK/bench issues, get rid of Nunez.
2: WC 19. Get back Haaland and be more aggressive on Man City for GW 19 and 20.
3: WC 21. Team reset after unloading Son/Salah. Allows me to have Haaland/Son/Salah for 19/20 (assuming Haaland healthy) and create a balanced team. (if I WC now or 19 transferring out Son/Salah in same GW will be messy, right?). How are others handling this?
Dubravka
Dalot - Tsimi - Porro
Salah - Son - Saka - Palmer -Gordon
Watkins - Darwin
Areola - Archer – Beyer – Evans
You've got to do wc1 before gw20 so
1 wildcard now
Sorry
By gw20
So after 19 at the latest
I would hold for 19 or before 20 deadline. Your front 8 are solid and I don't think the defense/goalie transfers are worth much right now considering the lack of clean sheets. Holding gives you an easy route to get Haaland back after the City blank. I'd be tempted to wait until after 19, bringing in Haaland for Sheff United and dropping Salah for his last week before AFCON.
Thank you both! And forgot WC had to be by 20, still learning. Yeah, think I'll wait until 19 to play the Haaland for Salah move all at once. The price differences with other players are so big it demands multiple transfers.
My team is lighting up like a christmas tree, feels very festive.
