It doesn't matter if you transfer out the DGW34 players who are rising as you will be getting them back next gameweek and any rises or falls will be reflected in your bank balance.

But it could affect what players you can get in

Rikand

FH team - draft 1

Cech (dubravka)
Robertson Tomkins Mustafi (Long Lowton)
Salah Sterling De Bruyne Milivojevic (Kenedy)
Jesus Firmino Aubemayeng


3 arse
3 city
3 pool
2 palace
2 Newcastle
2 Burnley

Yes, but you "sell" them mid-week so you have less to spend on your free hit team if you sell before their rise.

Your normal team when it reverts will keep all the rises.

I'm in the free hit gang, and I'll be waiting until Friday night/Saturday morning before I do anything. Mainly waiting to see if I can get a glimpse of the City & Liverpool line ups. Liverpool in particular, with Roma game on the Tuesday!

If you're definitely playing free hit then you can chop and change all you want. No need to wait.

Alderweireld close to dropping to 5.7
Be ideal if he gets back fit soon

The rumour is he is being ‘Kyle Walkered’. There is a contract issue and Pochettino is freezing him out.

FutureGuy

Where will be rotation next week so be sure to have a bench of decent players...Long, Kenedy etc.

Yeah I had seen that
But in this week's press conference poch said he has 2 years and not 1 year left so it's all unclear now
Pity cos he is their best defender and my preferred FF option

bantee

First stab at the FH:
Cech
Keane Klaven Mariappa
Salah Sterling DeBruyne Ramsey
Firmino Jesus Auba

Nordfeldt Kenedy Masuaku Gamez

Thoughts please. Sub keeper is dodgey if Cech doesn’t start, waiting on Ramsey fitness, and also rotation concerns over main players

km79

I have been very worried about 35 with no FH and I still am
But I’m beginning to see an upside too
My signings(city players) will be there to stay and I can get spurs players in the week after
Those on FH will revert back to DGW set up .......

I may go as far as a 12 pt hit yet as I’m also setting up for B.B. 37
Jesus is a risk though unless we get concrete news on aguero
No transfers before Friday for me
Sucked up a price drop last night

I've been saying that for a while. The 35 FH will take hits for city players in gw36. Next week is a good week to take hits for city players.

The problem is which ones
Sterling in and keeping

But Jesus ? Could be rotated again within a gameweek
Gundogan the same
It’s also a question of where I get the money from Cos the 2 I want rid of most are doucore and grobb and they won’t raise much cash ! Doucore could even get yet another stay of execution but I doubt it

Lukaku could easily go again for me
Mahrez if he blanks again

wardides

Is there not a chance that those with City players in GW34 may also need to take hits in 36 as rotation becomes a massive risk? I know they've nothing else to play for, but Pep could give the likes of Foden, Diaz etc a game?

Markx

The World Cup coming up adds to the rotation consideration also. Do players wish to rest more or be sharp and showing form coming up to the tournament?

For a cert like Hazard rest would probably be most important but for somebody who wishes to be in the country's starting 11 or squad, maybe they ask the manager to play? I'd be thinking somebody like Alonso or Jesus for example is asking to play...

Wilberto

For me (a FH'er) I'll be getting in Sterling for GW37, and that's pretty much it. City have been a minefield this season, not just because of the potential of rotation, but because of their abundance of riches. Yes, a City player can score a massive haul in a given week, but which one? It could be anyone of Silva, Sterling, Sane, KDB, and now Gundogs, plus the whole Jesus/Aguero debacle.

Same could be said of Eriksen /Alli/son
I’ve been on the wrong one all season
But I’ll still be getting one from 36 on

I'll be getting in sterling and sane. One of them will always start and if the league isn't won by next week they will both start. Even for the double because the fixtures are so good 120 mins is enough.

I’m of the same mind now I think
Mahrez will probably have to go .........salah will also make way in 36

Fitz*

All the planning in the world with multiple DGW players and then players like Lukaku (TC) at home to West Brom......

SlickRic

i'll have no bench as I've no FH, so i'll just have to pray that a miracle happens and whatever captain I choose runs amok.

7 players without a transfer.

if DGW 34 ends with me a few points ahead in my main league, I might use some points to get to at least 10 players.

If next week is anything like this DGW, hits could be a waste.

Was there ever a worse DGW than this one? I know, there's a few games to go, but still

To have a load of dgw players I took out or benched Salah, Firmino, Milivojevic and Sterling. To make matters worse I took out some of the few DGW players who did well at the last minute to accommodate Harry Kane. Disaster of a week so far and will probably cost me winning the main money league - I've already lost my 50 point cushion.

United's loss changes everything now
Expect a full City team to play GW35 at home and given they are champions I'm sure they'll want to put on a show

Only problem is choosing which 3.
Do you go 2mids and Jesus
3mids
1 defender and 2 mids

Choices choices

I wouldn't even bother with a defender. Most people will have Otamendi as a City defender, who probably won't start, so I'd expect to see most go without City defensive cover (apart from few who have Walker & Ederson). Would say best way to go about this weekend is load up on Jesus & 2 midfielders (I'll probably go Sane & KDB if possible).

Any news on whether David Silva will continue the season? Now they have wrapped up the league, could there be a chance he might be given some more time off to spend at home?

Good point to keep in mind.

3 attackers without a doubt. Jesus, Sane, Sterling for me. Might change.

FutureGuy

There are almost zero clean sheets in recent weeks.

I’ll be getting in a strong a front seven as possible and Kenedy/Wood as first sub. My defenders will be there for attacking threat first. Looking at Mustafi and Monreal.

The best thing is you can easily have a team where they’ll attackers do not face the defenders on your team.

Benimar

Lads, I posted something similar in the Wildcard thread, but it currently has a population of 1!

Looking at a GW35 WC and a GW37 BB. Currently on:

Ederson, Fabianski
VVD (possible -4 to Smalling in 37), Vertonghen, Chilwell, Masuaku, Dummett
Salah, Eriksen, Sterling, Arnautovic, Zaha
Jesus, Aubameyang, J.Ayew

2FT to do Salah + Auba/Jesus to approx 7m midfielder and Kane in GW37

Any opinions greatly appreciated.

Think it was mentioned here he does have a world cup I'm sure he'd like to be fit for and possibly play in.
