Fantasy Premier League 20/21

I would 100% do this and keep TAA. The upcoming fixtures for Salah are great so they are also for Trent.

Azpi isn't as nailed as before, Chelsea are still in UCL and FA Cup final and their league matches are getting difficult after Fulham. Getting Ward means you have a DGW player that will play both games and can be used as bench fodder after that.

For the Bruno swap, I would personally remove either one of those two. I'm leaning towards telling you to drop Greenwood as Liverpool have better fixtures and are ONLY playing fo top 4 whereas we are still gearing up for the EL Final.

I think if I knew Greenwood would start then I want him, but after Cavanis performance I expect him to start half the games minimum. Thus it is pure guess if Greenwood will start over Pogba/Rashford when Cavani starts and thus get 2 starts in the double. He can still score from the bench though and the same is true for Jota.

I think Jota been a troll for me, but he still get chances and often plays up front. Think Greenwood is more clinical, but not always the best at getting into chances. Although if we play like today he will get chances.

Wow magical from Cavani, Pogba and Bruno. Here I have Greenwood though. What to do?

I do not have enough money to uppgrade him to Bruno. I could get Son or Zaha as my old plan. Or stick with Greenwood and hope he starts.

Could do Greenwood and TAA out for Digne and Bruno for a -8.

I really don't want to sell Salah I think, but it is the only one move way to get Bruno.

Leave it as it is. Greenwood will surely start at the weekend after not yesterday.
Bruno is a risk, but it is still Liverpool which is a tough game.

You'll need your Liverpool crew for their last 4 games.
That's why I'm very cautious about switching Jota out this weekend.
 
I need to bench one from Pereira Dallas and Watkins. Leaning towards benching Watkins. Any advice?
 
Is Trent to castagne/Digne a wise move? After the double revert back to a Liverpool defender? I have 2 free transfer this week so I would like to use one, to aid my set up for the potential double. I still have bench boost to use as well.

My team:
Mendy forster
Trent rudiger coady holding white
Bruno Lingard salah jota son
Kane Iheanacho Vydra

I’m thinking of leaving Utd and Liverpool attackers out for this gw. The defenders seem to keep it a little tighter in the big games. A draw suits us. I can’t see it being a slaughter for either side but I can’t really see us keeping a clean sheet either.

Depends how many you have.

I have Bruno, Salah, Jota, and then Shaw and TAA.

So i wouldn't be able to leave even the 3 attackers out!

It might well be a tight game without many goals, but remember, even a 1-1, or 1-0 could still easily see one of the attackers 10 point it.

You've got a great mid 5 (template power 5 like me), Nacho, Kane and Trent, and unlike me have Rudiger.
You're well covered.

Difficulty like me is that you want Son this week, but will prob sacrifice his value next week to get 2 doublers in.

Maybe you could do Coady & Vydra to Castagne and whoever you can afford up front.
 
I'm seriously considering getting rid of Salah for Son. And maybe bringing Salah back for Bruno in BGW 35 (if crellin is right).

Feels completely sideways though...

I have Bruno Jota TAA and I don’t really know what to do. Thinking Bruno might finally be back at it after last night. Surely Greenwood gets the nod over Rashford? If we are up for this we could beat them well but these games are often cagey affairs and I feel like Ole would probably be happy enough with a draw. It’s a risk either way.
 
Ok lads, fielding this so far

Johnstone
TAA Shaw Coufal
Salah Bruno Son Lingard Jota
Kane (c) Nacho

bench Holding, Davis, Coady


Safe move looks to be Coady to Rudiger, and start him. If he doesn't play Coufal decent option

Weighing up other stuff
Jota to Siggy or Ward Prowse
Coady to Castagne if linked with Jota to WP.
Pereira, but is still a WBrom player, and no double.
Zaha, but has City this week.

2 freebies. 38 points ahead in my league. Main rival has a WC & BB, a risky rival is 60 behind and has Castagne and Dallas but the rest very similar.

Benching he high price players is madness, unless you have incredible form/other players.
TAA can easily assist even if they concede, but it could be a stale 0-0.
Liverpool have more to play for and we just played too, so we could get caught out.

Can’t afford Coady to castagne. That would have been the logical move alright:(. I can do Coady to Coleman though.

I’ve decided to go with my heart and include the Utd lads. I can see us hopefully scoring a few if Greenwood and Cavani start.

Martinez or Areloa?
Rudiger, Castagne, Semedo
Greenwood, Bruno, mount, Jesse
Kane (c) Vardy iheanacho

bench: cancelo (who is almost guaranteed to score well if he starts) TAA, Jota
 
TAA, Shaw, Azpi, Holding, Dias. Should I sell anyone to get in Digne or Castagne?
If not, which 3 do I pick?

Yeah you'll only have dread if you bin United players and then watch them score!
 
Doubles announced!



Final couple of GWs shifted about, along with the fixtures needing rescheduling. Crellin's suggested most likely outcome didn't happen (again). Now they moved the gameweek deadlines too, Crellin's suggested most likely outcome came to pass.

Will be interesting to see what they do here in terms of gameweeks and deadlines. Currently looks as if only 8 (or maybe 10) teams will play in GW36, with 16 (or maybe 14) teams doubling in GW 37.
 
Rudiger is red(knock) all of a sudden??? So which teams have a definite double in gw35?

Thinking about goalkeeper til the end of the season.

Mendy (Current choice), not nailed
Pickford - Good form, good fixtures, an extra game. Is he nailed though?
Meslier - Same as Pickford, without the extra game

What do you think? Worth switching Mendy to Pickford/Meslier?
 
FPL have now announced that deadlines will be moved, so 8 teams have a DGW35 and 4 teams have a BGW36. The game itself is not updated yet.

He's made some mistakes but I'm glad you're not crucifying him.

I've got 15 playing players. 7 are doublers in DGW35 who all blank in GW36: Mendy, Azpi, Rudi, Castagne, Bruno, Greenwood, and Nacho. Looks like I will need to sell three of them by BGW36 with my three free transfers (a Chelsea defender, Castagne and one other), and will probably move Dunk on too, which will be for a -4. Tempted to move Rudiger on this weekend now for an Everton defender, although Chelsea can keep clean sheets against anyone and will want to hang on in the top four.

Edit: Cheers, Samid!

So should I wildcard in prep to BB in GW35?

Is there another potential DGW somewhere?
 
So I think I am keeping Greenwood and hope for a game vs Villa and at least 1 point against Leicester. The question would you start him against Liverpool?

Feel like Cavani might start over him, but it is tricky to know. Rashford, Bruno, Pogba should be nailed if we go strongest team.

Azpi is also a doubt, but with Rudiger out I feel like he should play.

Where are you getting the Liverpool DGW from?
 
Scrap the WC in fact. I already have 8 players with a DGW and I'll have 2 free transfers to make it 10 to bring in Digne and Zaha. I may take a hit to bring in another Palace or Everton player too.

Using my WC now to have 11 DGW players doesn't seem entirely worth it as I wouldn't want to lose Kane or Lingard.
 
So I think my plan is to get Bruno for the double. How I get him I have 3 players to sacrifice. Son, kane in two moves or Salah in one move.
