Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 37+.
GW37+ Deadline; Saturday 18th July 4.30pm GMT
But can he play left-back?
These game-weeks are getting ridiculous now. As one ends, the next starts and so it is with GW37+, although at least this one lasts for five days. This is of course due to the weekend’s FA Cup semi-finals which are between Arsenal and Manchester City and then Manchester United and Chelsea. Now the implications of these cup semis are that players from any of the aforementioned teams could pick up injuries or fatigue from their Cup matches and it also means we won’t receive team news on their opponents (Watford, Villa, West Ham and Liverpool) before they meet in midweek.
The game-week begins on Saturday early evening, 5.30pm to be precise, with a real humdinger of a game as Burnley travel to relegated Norwich. That’s our only game of Saturday. Sunday sees two matches. First up is the local derby between Bournemouth and Southampton before Spurs entertain Leicester. We then move onto Monday as Brighton host Newcastle at the same time as Sheffield United take on Everton and then later on Wolves look to brush past Palace.
Tuesday sees Watford attempt to slow the Man City goal machine before Villa host Arsenal.
Finally, we conclude on Wednesday with Man United welcoming West Ham before Chelsea go to Liverpool.
If you’re worn out by all this then rest is assured as you have three and a bit days off before the last day of the season!
As always we shall endeavour to post the line-ups prior to each phase of the relevant GW and our usual FPL Countdown Timer (to be found above the latest comments section) is once again active.

Our GW36+ Result…
Tuesday began with us owning just Pulisic but also with some trepidation that Giroud would go bananas against a profligate Norwich and we’d have a monster on our hands come the next team meeting. Sure enough l’Adonis notched but thankfully just the one (with Pulisic handily assisting) and so onto Wednesday and hopefully a David Silva Masterclass to justify our eyebrow raising sale of KDB.
Not only did we buy Dilva, we bloody well captained him! And boy are we glad we did as he brought home the hallowed treble: a goal, assist and all 3 bonus. For a total of 26. That was the good news…
Elsewhere Foden blanked again and Pope lost his CS and 3 bonus points late on. Salah and TAA similarly disappointed with a 2 and a 0.
Wednesday brought us hope with Wan-B, Bruno, Greenwood and Ings all starting. The reality was a mixed bag with a CS, an assist and a goal between them leaving us somewhat confused as to whether that was enough or that we simply expected more. Probably 70/30 in favour of the latter.
That left Friday. And last weeks hero Cresswell propping up the rear. From hero to zero. Well ok, a two point zero but all the same.
That left us with 61 points and a rank of 38k, a rise from about 50k, but that’s not our final GW36+ rank. In the interests of getting this article live we have gone early and so will update the final rank when we can, as if it matters.
GW37+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD Vardy and BOUGHT Aubameyang
As much as we do eventually get some decisions correct and we do fairly well in general (relatively speaking) we shudder to think what people would make of our thought process in terms of ‘getting there’…
This week’s discussion began with selling Vardy and quickly went onto needing a defender instead. We had Martial playing left-back and wearing the armband at one point despite already owning 3 Man Utd players (which nobody noticed) and eventually came back round to Vardy. It’s like five clowns walking into a sweet shop at times.
To save the day, and our sanity, somebody pointed out Arsenal’s two remaining games and Aubameyang was ushered in with haste.
GW37+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW37+ will be BRUNO FERNANDES
Our Vice-Captain will be (whoever came in for Vardy) AUBAMEYANG
No surprises here, Mr. Consistent got the vote. He’s looked like both the best, (and at the very least) the liveliest player in the league since he arrived. So much so you almost expect some sort of FPL return every time he moves, never mind gets on the ball.

FPL FIXTURE TRACKER
FIXTURE TRACKER LINK
Just saw this, which could be interesting for KDB against Norwich:
Another assist for Kevin De Bruyne in Manchester City’s demolition job at Watford means the playmaker has one game remaining to catch Thierry Henry’s Premier League record.
Former Arsenal striker Henry currently holds the record for the most assists in one Premier League season – 20 in 2002-03.
With 19 now to his name in 2019-20, De Bruyne will be targeting two assists in City’s final game of the season to surpass Henry.

Looking to bring in Vardy->Jesus and considering another City player, but not sure who as yet.
Still have TC but not sure who to put it on.
I’m 2nd in ML by 54 points, so think ive missed out there, and ahead of 3rd place by 3 points at the moment (obviously still tonights games to go. 3rd place still has FH left.)
Who from City would you bring in, and who would you TC?
I would be tempted to bring in sterling and stick the TC on him
Sterling/Dilva for me.
Behind in my ML and need all help that I can get.
On a FH, which transfer do I need to execute?
Looks pretty strong but I think Doherty is too expensive to bench. Either play him or downgrade and get sterling in
May be I can play him instead of Cresswell. Villa knows that it might go down to goal differences and they will be determined to put one in.
Nothing wrong with the team, actually looks pretty good but I’d tempted to get Kane, Sterling, Antonio, Rashford and probably play 3-5-2, if I had the FH left.
With Sterling this is what I have.
I prefer this one I think.
Thanks GP. Would you prefer Pope or Lloris for the final GW bearing in mind I already have Pieterers?
+1.
I’m going double Burnley. Pope is also great for save and bonus points.
Double up on Burnley I think.
Cool!
I have no idea what to do here. 1.1 in the bank and just one free transfer. Any ideas?
If you’re up for a hit Smash does Salah to Silva and Jesus to Kane work?
Yeah I can even do Salah to Sterling instead did not think of that
If you did that what other transfer would you do?
Jesus to Kane
Can only come up with hits, sry.
Foden -> Dilva/Antonio
Doherty -> Digne/Tarkowski/Pieters
or
Foden -> Dilva/Antonio
Jiménez -> Ings (almost don’t dare suggesting this…)
KdB -> Son
Foden -> Dilva
Could perhaps be an option, not sure about your selling values tho.
Simpson to Pieters and improve your bench back up, not hit.
Yeah can do all that thanks and yeah have considered just bringing in a Burnley defender. That would mean not playing Doherty which is a little strange
Foden to D Silva and Doherty to Peiters?
Yeah that works
Thinking maybe to so vvd/kdb to aurier/sterling. What do you think? Alternative is to vvd to a cheap Def and saka to Willian
I have no clue who will start from city. An unpopular decision but maybe Mane or Salah instead of KdB and VVD to Aurier or maybe an Everton def. Also not sure if Foden will start again in 38
Foden to David Silva and Jesus to Ings?
That sounds good
Hoping you lads are faring well this week!
Have no chips, one FT and 0.2itb – what would you do differently?
Looks strong don’t think you need to do anything
Jiménez just became a father, and probably hasn’t slept since
Thinking of taking him and Jonny out.
No hits needed. You are fine.
