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 three rounds of matches played in 2024.
Our Set Pieces tab has also been updated for a general overview of all 20 clubs.
Hey all,
Solanke to Darwin the easy transfer? Prepared to take a hit to prep for GW26. 1FT 0.9£
Dubruv (Turner)
Porro Gab TAA (Guehi Estu)
Saka Richy Foden Palmer (Gordon)
Watkins Haaland Solanke
Cheers.
Yeah u have same starting 11 as me except u have Rich I have Garnacho and u have Solanke I have Alvarez who I’m considering switching to Darwin
If Bournemouth double in 28 you can always get him back.
When will we know?
before 26.
yes
What would you do here? I feel like I’m not that well prepared for DGW25 - BGW26
1 FT 4.7 ITB
Turner Areola
Colwill Lascelles Gabriel Porro Estupinan
Foden Bowen Saka Palmer Richarlison
Archer Haaland Watkins
U need 2 Liverpool I would go Lascelles to VVD and archer to Darwin
And what do you suggest for him in GW26 with 6 no shows?
He can't afford those moves
Colwill & Palmer to Jota and a doubling defender
I'd go Turner to Allison, Colwill to VVD and Bowen to Jota.
And FH 26? Otherwise I have 4 players playing..
I think what Hotdogs said is much better, and if you get Walker as the doubling defender, you then have 10 playing in GW26 (presuming Estupinan plays) and a FT to get a full 11 out. You never know, even Lascelles might show up...
Archer + Colwill -> Toney + Aké
Why Ake over Gvardiol?
Gvardiol as good as Aké. But personally like Aké more.
Sloopy, did you watch the last game? Ake looked sloppy and I am sure that will not have gone unoticed by Mr Peproulette! Only Gvardiol or Walker if wanting city defender as far as i am concerned anyway.
Bowen > KDB
Would you WC this? Got 2FTs.
My defence is a disaster. I only have 2 City and 1 Pool.
Dubs
Estup Gabriel Guehi
Foden Saka Palmer Gordon
Solanke Watkins Haaland
(Areola, Salah**, Livra, Taylor)
Possible -4?
Estu+Gordon+Solanke >> VVD+Barkley+Darwin
decent -4
I'd want Jota but I wouldn't WC.
I get a feeling Jota may be the highest scoring DGW player after Haaland
2 city is ok? I mean their defence isn't worth getting and unless you can afford KDB then who do you want?
Solanke Salah Guehi to Darwin Jota Gvardiol (-4)?
Gordon , Solanke -> Foden Cunha -4 ?
Only have Haaland for city coverage
It's possible you'll only need Haaland.
Yeah they look a bit of a rotation nightmare in the making but happy to have a couple. Cunha decent for 26 too and Gordon plays Arse away
Like it!
Cheers mate
I don't like the idea of selling Alvarez
I am stuck with Haaland Alvarez and Foden ... will roll with that
I would
I think you are wise
Pep may have the same setup in the reverse Brentford fixture for the double so could see 120-130 mins. Probably hold now assuming you already have Haaland or alternative FWD to sell
Keep imo.
I made this post on the last article, then had to go and do some things so could reply to feedback (thank you) I'll reply here as to why this is the forward-planning.
GW24 team pre-transfers (2FTs & 0.6ITB);
Dubravka
Trent, Trippier, Doughty
KDB, Bowen, Rich, Gordon, Palmer
Haaland, Watkins
Areola, Porro, Estu, Semenyo
GW24;
Porro > Richards - rather than burn a transfer, I have no plans on starting Porro in GW24, so it would free up funds.
GW25;
Semenyo > J.Pedro - J. Pedro has SHU who we've seen play awful recently. Single transfer allows me a one week roll (reason I don't want a Jota/Darwin etc is their GW26 blank, GW28 MCI & GW29 probable blank, plus because of the Carabao Cup do we think Liverpool will go full strength vs Luton or rotate heavily, I'm leaning to the latter)
TC Haaland
BGW26;
Trent > Moreno - Villa at home to NFO. This would be the GW C. Richards (CRY) plays (home to Burnley).
GW27;
Bowen > Saka - WHU fan and only holding Bowen because of his GW26 fixture currently. Saka would be away to SHU this week. Looks a great fixture.
GW28;
BB
Richards & J. Pedro > Senesi & Solanke - Those asking why BB? Team would be;
DUB(che), Areola(BUR)
Trippier(che), Estu(NFO), Doughty(cry), Moreno(TOT), Senesi(SHU)
KDB(liv), Saka(BRE), Richar(avl), Gordon(che), Palmer(NEW)
Haaland-C(liv), Watkins(TOT), Solanke(SHU)
BGW29;
FH - Self explanatory
GW30;
Saka > Son - Son has Luton, Saka has MCI.
GW31;
WC, Bring in the likes of Gabriel, Salah, Toney, team would look like:
Dubravka/Areola
Trippier, Gabriel, Estupinan, Doughty, Udogie
Salah, KDB, Gordon, Palmer, Hee Chan
Haaland, Toney, Cunha
It's a great template of a plan. whatever I come up with is probably no better. Just keep avoiding those Villa defenders 🙂
Yeah, bit iffy on Moreno but he's mostly for BGW26 could easily be someone else like Walker, really
Wauw. Looks good on paper!
Lets hope I can stick to it?
Planning on a WC this week, and triple captaining Haaland next week.
How's my WC team?
Areola / Dubravka
Gabriel TAA Udogie Branthwaite Lamptey
Jota KDB Foden Richy Palmer
Haaland Darwin Cunha
This team highlights the problem with WCing this week.
Are you using FH in 26? Otherwise you're in trouble, especially if any of your City players get rested/rotated that week.
Agree with this. 2FT and 6 blankers going into 26. - 4/-8 2GWs after WC doesn't seem ideal
Planning on FH in 26.
A little help would be appeciated with my team please. I have 1FT with 0.5 in bank. Solanke ok on the bench, should I do 2 transfers to downgrade Solanke and bring in Trent?
Martinez
Porro Saliba Trippier
Saka Palmer Jota Foden Richarlison
Watkins Haaland
Areola Solanke Estu Lamptey
Maybe, depends on what the transfers actually are
I can't decide which defender to lose, Lamptey isn't an option due to price
It's possible Bradley will come back in for one the DGW fixtures, more likely the second one which is close to the cup final the following weekend.
I'd personally prioritise VVD over TAA and save the 2m.
Solanke has a fixture in the blank followed by Sheffield United, so he's a keeper for me.
* followed by Burnley and Sheffield United
Need to get Pool attacker, Darwin for free or Jota for a hit?
Bad thing about getting Jota this week is I have to get rid of Palmer or Bailey - wouldn’t like to lose either this week tbh, also can’t see selling Foden, Saka or Richa.
feel like I've answered this question before.
Cheers mate, thanks
Seems straightforward decision here...
Falling into Darwin arms?
Jota if you like points, Darwin if you like pain . Probably look at selling Palmer and getting him back. Tough run coming up
Could hope Darwin starts hitting the door again
Is there a door big enough. Yeah I guess so . Depends how you think Jota will do. He's the man of the moment for Liverpool and we know how good he is on form . He bags braces for fun but he can go on stale runs. I went Jota over Darwin too btw
Darwin
This bench isn't good enough for a BB is it?
Dubravka (nfo), Saliba (whu), Gusto (cry), Gross (tot).
For me, I tend to use BB on doubles and set the minimum to 16 points (app points). Tough to predict this one, you could get a decent score and get lucky with 1 or 2 returns
No no. Not good enough.
Help please, what to do?
2FT 4.9ITB
Areola (Dubrav)
Estu | Saliba | Porro (Konsa*, Kabore)
Saka | Palmer | Gordon | Foden (Bowen)
Watkins | Solanke | Haaland
Few options to consider:
- Gordon to Jota
- Bowen to KDB
- Solanke to Darwin
or do 2 of them?
what about Bowen > Jota
Unlikely affordable but I would look at all 3 for a hit.
Whichever combination you prefer from selling Gordon/Bowen to Jota/KDB
What is the latest on Gordon?
Not sure but it didn't look good. I brought him in for last GW and then sold this week on a WC.
I was hoping to hold Gordon but with 2 blanks and bad fixtures he makes an easy xfer out.
How is your WC team looking?
I’m guessing:
Flekken Dubravka/Luton
TAA Estu Walker x x
Jota Foden Saka Palmer x
Haaland Darwin Watkins
Then a view to bring in Spurs and Toney for 29?
he was at the metrocentre the next day, he'll be back soon.
Pretty sure I’ll be captaining a pool attacker this week
Darwin or Jota though..
Heart and logic says Jota because Burnley concede most of their chances down the middle but I’ve Darwin bias!
Both great options imo
Jota over Haaland this week...i might do it myself
Thoughts on these moves after tonight’s games? Have exact funds…
Solanke, Alvarez, Bowen to Haaland, Nunez, Foden (-4)…
Not fancy Toney over Darwin?
Why sell Alvarez for Nunez?
I’m currently on Haaland Alvarez and Foden + Jota and TAA.
Not sure whether I just bring in Diaz/Gomez or also switch Alvarez to Darwin and get Walker/Gvardiol in.
I am on a WC. My backline is Gomez, Estupinan, Doughty, Gusto and Brathwaite. I have Palmer too so I do not want Gusto because of the BGW but I have no money in the bank and I cannot think of another decent option at the same price. I can find the money by selling Estupinan and buying Ait Nouri. Unsure who I would upgrade Gusto to and also Estupinan has great fixtured for the next 5. Any advice?
Van Hecke... Playing for same club as Estupinan... Cost 4.0
Thanks for the reply! I actually considered him but given that Brighton are a defensive mess (not the only club this season), I am only with Estupinan because of his attacking threat.I considered Lamptey too as his minutes have gone up each week for the last three so I wonder if he will become a new starter. 3.9 and more attacking. As I said, the other option is sell Estupinan and upgrade Gusto. Tough call.
Oof to be frank with you I really don't like that defence at all. Sure about Estupiñan after the last couple weeks? Doughty/Branth is fine but if attacking DGW on WC I wouldn't be carrying Gusto. Gomez might get one start but with Robbo & Tsimi back he looks a poor option longer-term
All defensive options are shite this year so I have gone cheap. My attackers are very good because of the money I have saved (Son, Salah, KDB, Haaland). I am concerned about Gomez too but he has Burnley at home this week and I cannot see Tsimikas being back for next weekend. Estupinan is there only because of the sweet set of fixtures. I do not think he will be benched going forwards and think he was only benched as punishment for the previous week.
Understandable strategy but I think I would just be looking to tweak it slightly / squeeze out just a little more money for defence.
How about Moreno & Ait Nouri/Dawson (in place of Gomez & Estupinan)? Both have good fixtures to cover 26 & cover each other's tougher fixtures quite neatly going forward
Look perhaps at a N'castle and Wolves defence rotation. Thank me later 🙂
Considered Burn but I have Newcastle keeper and I think a double up in their present form is not the best of ideas
Shiver me timbers! So you think that losing Estupiñan for his nice run of fixtures is worth it if I upgrade Gusto? I would get Ait Nouri and Sensei or whatever he’s called to be honest. Bournemouth have good fixtures after next two until the end of the season and a double gameweek. Want to keep Gomez until he inevitably loses his place or GW26 whichever comes first. He has Burnley at home this weekend and then a DGW
Foolishly did Foden to Gordon last GW do I reverse it for free?
(KDB & Haaland also in my team)
Makes sense, unless you want to save 3rd City slot for a DEF
Cheers mate. Could do and go with Garnacho for Gordon? What do you reckon?
Probably yes
Thoughts on Son after South Koreas exit?
Likely to come off of bench or start?
Depends when Son gets back and train.
Initial thoughts would be bench, wait and see what Ange says on Friday
happy to wait till 27
Same. KDB to Son the likely move here
Dub Areola
Porro TAA Estu Gabriel Taylor
Gordon Saka Foden Palmer Son
Haaland Watkins Solanke
Really at a loss what to do. Have 2 ft’s.(0 itb) Saved Son this long but thinking
Son Solanke > Jota Darwin
Then what about BGW26?
Yes.Tricky week. Maybe Solanke > Darwin and a defender move and keep Son despite blank 26 but plays in 29?
Help please, what to do?
1FT 1.5ITB
Leno (Areola)
Taa | Saliba | Porro (gusto*, lascelles)
Saka | Palmer | Gordon | Foden | Jota
Watkins | Haaland (Solanke)
A) roll transfer
B) solanke/watkins > Darwin
C) Gordon > richarlison
D) other??
Bench who?
1. Solanke
2. Palmer
3. Watkins
4. Gordon ( if i roo tf)
i'd probably save
I wonder if anyone on here is capping Adebayo this week?
If he hauls, plenty will claim they did
would be a nice differential!
I have KDB Foden and Alvarez. No way to do Alvarez to Haaland without major surgery. Is it essential to swap KDB to Haaland for DGW25?
KDB could be a keeper mate
I don't think he would make many saves
Hey all,
Chuka > Jota the obvious move here? 2FT’s so could also even do Gusto/Porro > TAA but dont want to leave myself too open for BGW26. 7.4 ITB
Dub
Gabriel Porro Trippier
Foden Rich Palmer Gordon
Haaland Alvarez Watkins
(Turner Chuka Gusto Myko)
Darwin is going to score more points than Jota in the next 2 gameweeks.
That is possible indeed.
I'm actually thinking of captaining him against Burnley
I think so. Currently my C as I think Everton are a harder team to unlock than Burnley.
Which one would you do?
A) Solanke > Darwin (bench Bowen)
B) Bowen > Jota (bench Solanke)
B.
B
B
On WC:
A. VVD, Saka
B. TAA, Palmer
B
Which of these 3 Game players (SGW24 and DGW25) all with a good fixture this week are worth a hit: Which will outscore the other by 12pts over the 2GW's?
a) Andersen > Gomez
b) Saka > Jota
c) Watkins > Toney
I currently have no Pool, Luton or Brentford players
a is DGW fever but might make me 0.1 or 0.2m by WC time
b is the most tempting especially if Saka carrying a niggling injury
c great differential but coudl backfire spectaculalry.
I like B. Watkins’ fixtures are too good to miss out on.
Thoughts here? Already did Bowen to Foden with FT..... 0.6 itb
Dubravka
TAA Porro Saliba
KDB Foden Saka Palmer
Haaland Watkins Solanke
Areola Estupinan Chukuemba Baldock
A) G2G
B) Solanke -> Darwin (-4) (Exact funds)
C) Something else?
B
I would take the hit this GW for the plum home fixture against Burnley. Gives you an extra GW for the hit to pay off since it's exact funds
B
Not sure if Saka, Bowen > KDB, Rodri (-4) a few days ago was stupidity or genius. Looks bad on paper but City have 3 consecutive home PL games coming up and Rodri’s home record makes me think he’s worth the punt. Can bring Saka back on WC too having lost no value.
What do we think? Plan is to save FT next week leaving 2 FTs for BGW26.
Dubravka
TAA, Porro, Estu
KDB, Jota, Rodri, Palmer
Haaland, Watkins, Darwin
(Areola, Saliba, Gordon*, Lascelles*)
0.5 ITB
So you want advice on a transfer you've already made?
Asking if it’s GTG essentially.
Anything worthy of a hit?
7.7itb
Raya
Doughty Taa Burn
Jota Saka Palmer KDB Richarlison
Alvarez Watkins
Turner Mengi Gusto Archer
Alvarez to Darwin or Haaland possibly?
Current team 2FT (3.2m itb)
Areola
TAA • Gabriel • Porro
Saka • Palmer • Foden • Rich
Haaland • Watkins • Solanke
Turner / Estu / Taylor*/ Andersen*
Best moves?
A) Solanke >> Darwin
B) Andersen + Porro >> Jota + Doughty
C) Andersen + Watkins >> Jota + Darwin
D) Andersen + Solanke >> Jota + Adebayo
