A little later than usual, we look back on the previous round of fixtures after last night’s Manchester derby brought the curtain down on Double Gameweek 34.
As many of us prepare to unleash our second Wildcards, a number of big-hitters make a strong claim for our plans over the remaining four Gameweeks.
this wildcard lark is difficult lol
Hennessey Pickford
Stephens Bailly Vertonghen (Gibson Holgate)
Alli Zaha Sanchez King (De Roon)
Lukaku Kane Gabbiadini
4.5 ITB
Anything worth a hit? On Kane (c) for now.
any thought on this?
1) Rashford to Costa?
2) Rashford tp Jesus
3) Rashford to Gabbi
4) Other?
1FT and 5.2ITB available
current team:
Jakupovic / Foster
Holgate / Valencia / Alonso / Bailly / Stephens
Hazard / Alli / Sanchez / Coutinho / King
Kane / Rashford / Anichebe
1
3
Not sure who to bench?
A Alonso
B Yoshida
C Vertonghen
D Valencia
B or C for me
C
C
C
Lukaku > Tekkers worth a hit?
(As an 1 week punt before WC)
Not for a hit I'd think
Wouldn't do it for a hit. Gabbi could be worth it though
Already planned to get Gabbi for Negredo.
C'mon pep, you said today you'll give bravo news
Wildcarding - GTG?
DeGea / Courtois
Bailley / Rannochia / Stephens / Yoshida / Holgate
Sanchez / Hazard / Sane / Eriksen / Alli
Kane / Jesus / Rashford
0 ITB.
Jesus and Rashford put and Gabby and Tekkers in for this week.Rooney will start vs Swansea, Rashford will play Europa. Gabby double game week next week, then move for Jesus for wk 37 imo. Jesus could be a good shout this week though, so tough call vs Benteke this week
Downgrade Courtois or DDG and then change Rashford if you can afford Benteke or something.
Also Caballero a good choice, at 4.7 with Bravo injured. City's doubles are both at home. Although you'll obviously play DDG this week. Maybe him and Forster until 37 then Cabbalero/DDG in 37 with bench boost?
I like that option, thanks
Can we talk about Jesus' general lack of self awareness? Look I know the kid is 20 and just ready to go flat out but what the heck was that yellow card he got 3 minutes after coming on yesterday? Not enough reason to dissuade me from getting him in if it looks like he will play over the DGW, but he does look like he will have those "what are you thinking" type moments.
Who can advise me? Want to use my FT to good effect before WC, but I'm nowhere near to a decision! Could I get rid of a Spurs player againts Arsenal? Bench JWP with a good fixture to get King or Arnie? Get rid of Aguero who could be benched for Gabbi? Make a change in defence?Ahhhh I don't know
Jak
Valencia Maguire Brunt
Eriksen JWP Coutinho Firmino
Aguero Benteke Kane
Grant | Bavies, Siggy, Mawson
1FT, 0.1M.
Aguero > Gabbi or Afobe?
Was thinking this for Gabbi. Would hate myself if Kun exploded though
Really don't know who to take out
Anyone could score good of that lot
Bavies > Cedric/Yoshida?
But you're WCing next week right..so what does it matter
I would bench Brunt, and Brunt would be backup for Valencia if he doesn't play
Brunt for Huth/Daniels/Kompany?
Huth's an idea. Brunt finally has a reasonable fixture, but I guess Huth or Saints def are better otpiton....slightly
Kaku to punish his sellers this week 😀
Stop it
There will be goals on the NLD for sure
so be it, I am going for a doubler
Tempted to say goodbye & sell him for Gabbi
Nothing better to say ?
hah kaku sellers already bricking it 😀
I'm on the beach with a cigar without Lukaku .
Stuck between King & Arnie for a single week punt
That's tough. King if you want to follow the mainstream but Arnatovic if you want a differential.
Would rather know who's likely to score more points!
Same. Plus lot of other options haha
So much
Arnie could come good
Martial
Good shout that
Reckon he'll start though?
Don't feel well about benching Siggy this weekend. He can score or assist against anybody. What should I do?
Other seven are Coutinho, Alli, Eriksen, Zaha, Gabbiadini, Lukaku and Costa.
Him or Lukaku
Kaku at home?
Bench him.
I'm selling him for one of the above
Siggy right decision
took -8 to do kaku, wally, Gibson to hazard, gabbi, Yoshi
I sincerely don't know why I feel horrible for doing that. no WC too so more hits to follow
Anichebe for GW 37 vs Swansea Arsenal . Discuss .
Could be dropped for Borini by then
no chance .Moyes loves him and was one of the better players in that Boro game. Injury prone though
No stay away get a 6ish striker like Gabbiadini
see below. Already have Gabbi
No. End of.
would you get Anichebe for this side for GW 37 BB mate ?
Cech Willy
Alonso Cahill Monreal Kompany Daniels
Sanchez Haz Erik Alli King
Kane Gabbi Anichebe
Like it generally . Somewhere down the line there has to be some compromise . Think your defence is a bit pricey but could score well . Good luck.
thanx. Yeah not a fan of Pickford yoshida Holgate JwP BB in 37 so a little different
Hes in my plans at the moment. Don't see why not
The majority will say no, but he's actually in my thinking too at the moment.
cheers. Allows a super team tbf
Could get him instead of Gabbi to use funds elsewhere
Best one week punt:
A) Costa
B) Vardy
C) Benteke
D) Gabbi
E) other 5.6itb 1ft
Rest of team:
Heaton, Henn
Davies, Alonso, Gibson, Holgate, Amat
Zaha, Alli, Sterling, Sanchez, JWP
*Negrado, Lukaku, Kane (C)
Benteke maybe... He has a hattrick in him yet. Home form not good though for some raisin.
Anyone chasing a lead doing Lukaku > Gabbiadini for a gamble? Gabbi price rising tonight.
Gabbi has 5 games in next 3 weeks... lukaku has 3 games... It could backfire so spectacularly though when 2x of Lukaku fixtures are swansea & watford 🙁
Might rashford get rested ahead of Europa league on thurs, maybe Rooney given a game? Safer to swap to gabbi (c)?
I was thinking Kane (c) versus the arsenlol defence
I was thinking this too to be fair, he has 5 in his last 4 against Arsenal. Would you do rashford to gabbi for free?
Yeah i probably would tbh... Rashford still hit & miss & rotated
A gamble yes but that's what I'm doing. Rashford.
Let's have a poll.
Do you think Jesus will start, yes or no?
Marks, set, go.
No
No
Yes
Yes
No, sadly
Nope.
yes
No
y (do 1 for rashford later pls)
Yes
No
No
I think Timbo it looks completely inconclusive.
Depends if you have big balls.
Don't think he will but I'm still gonna play him. We have seen that he only needs a cameo and he is likely to score.
If he is on bench and city are winning easily, then pep should give kun a rest and bring jesus on.
If they are looking for a goal then he will probably bring him on in the hope that he will grab one.
So I'm happy to take the risk as I will be losing lukaku v Chelsea for jesus.
I think he might, yes.
Yes
No
yes
No but will play 20 to 30 i think
Nada
8 yes
10 no
😐
Probably best not captain him I'd say.
Pull the trigger for Siggy, Negredo to King, gabbi...
Yes or no?
Yes very much so
Yay
Would rather on WC:
A. Holgate & T.Carroll
B. Stephens & JWP
Already have Yosh.....
B
Totally screwed that up
A. Holgate and JWP
B. Stephens and T.Carroll
Tricky that one. Maybe A
B
A
Bench one of Baines (CHE), Walker (ARS) and Smith (sun).
Baines
Who is the best 'nailed on' 14m MF/ST combo to have for this front 8 for the next few GWs
Sanchez Herrera Redmond Zaha xxxxxxxx
Lukaku Benteke xxxxxxxx
Any ideas would be welcomed
King and Gabbi
This.
If you get King / Gabbi you will be benching another mid ... so surely you a cheap bench warmer instead
Someone like Dier (5.0) could work .. leaves 9.0M to cover Jesus
or could do Vardy / T Carroll .... fixes you to 3-4-3 but a 5th mid who will play
Would you get rid of Valencia for more assured starter Blind or Daniels?
This would involve a -4, but Byram (stk) & Gibson (MCI) on my bench :/
Think I'm going Bailly
He's also an option! But he's due a rest no? Worried about that..
Hes had enough rest
Weighing up a GW35 WC...and possibly save the FT in GW36 if I can, allowing for 2 FTs in GW37(BB) just in case any injuries etc. Team's been fluking it out for awhile now. Worth a WC, this lot?
Jaku Foster
Valencia Alonso Robertson PVA Amat
Yep, I think so...
sorry full team below.
Oops...
Jaku Foster
Valencia Alonso Robertson PVA Amat 😆
Sanchez Eriksen Alli Townsend Capoue 😆
Kane Lukaku Benteke
Become something like...
Jaku Pickford
Blind Alonso Stephens (Gabriel Smith)
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen King (xx)
Benteke Gabbi Kane
Think you can survive one more week if cash is not an issue... Just Luka to Gabbi will do the job
How is this please?
Pickford - DDG
Monreal - Blind- Yosh- Azpi/Luiz - Stephens
Sánchez- Hazard- Alli- JWP- King
Jesus - Gabbi- Kane
Thinking of benching Sanchez am i bonkers ?
Yes
Never performs against the top 4-5 teams though apart from Chelsea earlier in the season
yeah but i think i will keep him as well 😆 @ me
Mental.
Do you have to pay to use fan duel ?
Sorry for reposting, bottomed on the last page.
Who to bench?
A. Zaha (BUR)
B. Sanchez (tot)
C. Alli (ARS)
D. King (sun)
E. De Bruyne (mid)
F. Kane (ARS)
G. Gabbi (HUL)
H. Benteke (BUR)
A
Yikes, KDB imo.
to those of us without wild cards, what is the max number of hits that you have taken this gw alone, currently on -8 and am banking on sterling to start otherwise am fielding 10
Iv done -8 and banking on Valencia to start. Tempted to minus again and bring in someone else
is lowton a great shout, he is first on my bench but am pretty sure will concede and get a yc too
Henn / Pick
Alonso / Valencia / Davies / Bertrand / Holegate
Eriksen / Hazard / Sanchez / King / Zaha
Kane / Gabbi / Benteke
1.4 itb
Rival team
Henn / Heaton
Gibson / Valencia / Davies / Azpi / Ward
Eriksen / Hazard / Sanchez / Siggy / Davies
Negredo / Kane / Barnes
He's 65 points ahead. This week I brought in Gabbi for Negredo, I think hel prob do the same. What moves in the future GWs would you do? I need differentials from him. We both have BB and no WC.
7 years, 2 months agoDone with this gameweek transfers,will leave the WC headache for next week
