    Week break before and then Schalke in the CL after. Watford recently took a pounding away at Liverpool.

    Salah against Huds in 36 as the popular SGW TC option is looking less and less appealing given his recent form. He may not even end up being in my 34 WC team. I'm not sure I'm seeing many more attractive SGW options that this one.

    I'm waiting to see when all games are rescheduled for in case of any surprises.

    Heard this mentioned on the planet FPL podcast

    Seems he’s a no-go for the season

    Kun in gameweek 32 with fixtures against ful and CAR is what I'm hoping

    Normally yes but if you have all your chips left then its not so straightforward this season as the other chips offer a higher points expectation for a double. What we really need is a random skinny dgw that just happens to have a heavy hitter with two good fixtures that makes it easy!

    I’d be astonished if he got anywhere near to 180 minutes in that DGW, especially with their schedule, Pep’s comments about him being exhausted, and Jesus making his way back from injury.

    Of course even 90 minutes from Aguero might well be worth it in any case!

    I thinking of Kane TC in gw38 for spurs vs eve at the new stadium hopefully.

    Will depend on whether spurs are still fighting for a top4 finish on the final day or not.

    But an Everton team with nothing to play for and players already on the beach could be ideal for someone like Harry.

    Aguero has not been named in the Argentina squad for their two friendlies in 2 weeks time for anyone interested.

    I'm using FH in 32 and likely BB in 35.

    There's an argument for using the TC in 35 and BB in a single. But the probable DGW fixtures aren't even that tasty in 35 (e.g. City will likely have United and Spurs).

    TC is definitely best in 32, but use it in 32 and you can't use FH in 32. And that looks the best time to use FH with the 31 and 33 blanks either side.

    In hindsight, using the TC in the first DGW was certainly the way to go, and not just cos Aguero exploded. To ensure you can use BB, FH and TC all in DGWs, using the TC in a skinny DGW makes the most sense. Annoying because I did this last year with Aguero and I think he only got 9 points over the two matches!

    City play on tuesday and after what happened this week cant see them taking this lightly. Aguero will be doing well to see past 60 mins if they are a couple ahead

    Boruc or Etheridge?

    Etheridge > Fab > Boruc for points expectancy imo. If you're looking for best value this week that would be Guaita.

    I had planned to WC this week but it felt far too much like effort....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,420 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    I might have imagined this, but is there a way of seeing what your team looks like in future game weeks?

    In the Points tab, if you click backwards, you'll see the players with GW29 poitns, GW28 points underneath it. I want the opposite, when I click forward I'd like to see what fixtures players have in future GW's

    I realise I can do a spredhseeet but thought I used to be able to see this, maybe in another tab or site

    Not on the fpl site. There are 3rd party sites that do that sort of thing for you.

  • Registered Users Posts: 849 ✭✭✭IrishLad90


    With next week's matches I've changed the front 3 . Plagued with injuries and a red card

    Harry kane + Rashford + Jimenez OUT
    Vardy + king + Wilson IN

    WILL USE WILDCARD NEXT GAMEWEEK

    My partner’s team, ahem, aka secret sausage is proving there’s always time and also aggression can work -

    GW 24 - 1.1m

    GW 25 - 631k

    GW 26 - 485k

    GW 27 - 376k

    GW 28 - 235k

    That team had been hovering between 700k and 1m for 20 weeks.

    The secret sausage scored 94 this week so the overall is now -

    GW 30 - 113k

    Haven’t had Salah for any of that improvement period.

    Have 7 players for next week and 2 FT’s.

    Will continue to pick differentials over the coming weeks when using WC and BB.

    This sausage is on a similar run, 73 sees me (1.38M GW24) up to 206k. A captain fail this week away from a similar GW score and OR.

    Salah-less and differentials. 7 players as well thanks to Schar. Feel a -8 incoming.

    Only 29 points behind in (a fairly casual) money league. Chips in my favour. Was 100+ adrift 7 GWs ago.

    That's pretty impressive! What's really telling is how often you hear people say they'll never close mini league gaps but in GW24 I was ranked 12k and while secret sausage was 1.1m and now they're right behind me. Shows how much of a gap you can make up even at this stage when things swing your way.

    What are people thinking on a triple captain this weekend with Salah?
    Leaving aside the double GWs for BB and FH
    FFS says this is the second highest score there'll be this season, Huddersfield at home is better BUT Fulham have conceded 2 in the last 10 games.
    Add into that I'm winning two monthly comps at the moment, this could put me out of reach with a week to spare. I'm tempted

    could work great... is there any chance we'll get a dgw outside of 32 & 35? I'm think I'm going to hold off & see

    That's what I'm hoping for but we're not going to know in time. I think it's best to wait knowing we have 36 as back up. Also gives Salah the chance to remember how to score by then too!

    Best thing about free hitting this week is knowing I don't have to do anything to remove these wasters from my team
