Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 35 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
And so from a week with many, many games in which so few players actually bothered to turn up to a week with far less games but hopefully more actual players. If that makes sense! GW35 is the one which has been commonly referred to as the ‘blank week’. So much so you’d be forgiven for thinking that all the fixtures had been cancelled, which of course isn’t the case. There are indeed 6 teams without a game this week but that means there are 14 who do still play. There may only be 7 games but they span 3 days and Man City kick us off on Saturday lunchtime when they host Stoke. Saturday is then a short affair with just the 3 games, all kicking off at 3pm before Sunday brings us Sunderland and Arsenal at 2.05pm and then a Vardy-less Leicester who host Swansea at 4pm. Spurs and West Brom then see us out on Monday night at 8pm. The fixtures in full…
[clear]
Saturday 23rd April:
12.45
Man City vs Stoke
15.00
Aston Villa vs Southampton
Bournemouth vs Chelsea
Liverpool vs Newcastle

Evening all
KDB and welbeck have pissed me off so time to say goodbye me thinks. With am eye on wk37 with 17.8 to spend:-
A) Carroll and hazard
B) sturridge and Willian
C) Costa and Milner
Any thoughts?
Cheers
Dont like C, even though I looked at Costa this week. Sturridge has to be a rotation issue. So that leaves me to A which I do like
+1
I like A – think I may go with those two for GW37
Chees guys,
A was my favourite too.
Hi hammers, I like A also.
Would you go for it this week or save it til 37?
The city & Arsenal fixtures are better, but can’t be doing with another week of them being rested.
I assume they have to both be done at the same time to make it work? Shame if so as I’d give Welbeck Norwich at home, I think he surely returns for that one. KdB on the other hand I’d be more inclined to do this week, that’s just because the second leg follows GW36 so he could easily be rested again.
As wellbeck only got 20 mins this week and didn’t feature at all the second gw of 34 I’d be tempted to ship him out first and just bench Kdb this week.
Yeah, unfortunately can’t get hazard without ditching welbeck. Thought he might return to the starting line up today too but that didn’t happen
Looks like my last two transfers of the season will be:
Mannone > Elliot (finally get round to dropping Elliot and use Mannone’s DGW over Cech’s City (A)
I will then use my 38 one on Surman > TBA so I have spent all my money. Don’t want any left wasting in the bank lol
Will finish on 144 transfers for the season. What about you guys?
44 not 144 lol :p
I was going to say you’d been busy and you might want to reevaluate that strategy a bit!
Looks like I’ve done about 45 if you don’t count the 2 WC’s so it’ll probably be about 50 come the end as I’ll most likely take a hit or two for the double. That’s about 10 more than normal but I’ve not had much luck along the way with injuries, suspensions and other things, even had a failed drugs test this week which just about sums it up! Sakho that is, not me
On 41 transfers atm gunners.
Wudnt waste a trf if have Cech as an option unless you truly dont have any better options
Cech is staying its elliot who’s coming out
gunners – why bother though?
I’m on 51 probably end up on 55/56
Mitro – would have thought it be much much much much more
Ha ha! I will take that as a compliment
A call out to all who have their Triple-Captain chip remaining…. 3 GW’s to go.. What are your best options??
I’m looking at Chelsea in the DGW37, Sanchez in 38, Payet or even Carrol in the DGW37…
Anybody got anything sneaky planned?
I’ve narrowed it down to those too so far!
Yeah Innit… the pickings are fairly slim… there’s a genius selection there somewhere.. Deeney or Defoe or maybe even Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe??? … somebody is going to haul them in…. 😉
Crucial this one. ML is very tight now. This is the card I have left as an advantage over the others. Initial thinking is either Carroll 37 or Sanchez 38. 37 on Carroll, or someone else if they emerge, is winning right now. Feels daft not to take the chance of two games over one.
Anyone know what to do with Welbeck? Giroud just is not good enough up front on his own and I don’t even think he’d be good with someone up with him. Do you think Wenger will start to play Welbeck more now or still keep faith in Giroud?
Welbeck really should start. Giroud was awful so so awful. If Welbeck doesnt start I’m gonna be mad.
Same problem here. See my post above – I’m thinking of swapping him for Carroll.
General opinion was that he was going to start this week but it didn’t happen.
Cheers Hammers. I want to sell him but the fixtures against Norwich and Villa make it hard to justify you know?
Great to see Mahrez get the recognition he deserves.
He definitely deserved it as well!!
Yeah!!
Amazing how 1 CRAP GW can make you hate a decent season…
Darlow – 1 point
Evans – To play
Sakho – 0 – Fat druggy
Clyne – 0 – Must have enjoyed watching newcastle’s come back…
Gabriel – 0 – Must have enjoyed watching Sunderlands defense…
Monreal – 6
Alli – To play
Coutinho – 1 – Stupid rotations!!!
Sanchez – 3 – Expected better!!
Kane (C) – to play
Aguero – 6 – Expected better
DDG, Rashford, Payet and Lennon didnt play…
Total of 17 points…
1,5m itb and 1FT… thinking of AoA this GW (and risk Gabriel with Monreal) and use 2FT next GW for the DGW
Need Alli to get a hatty to get me back in my ML contention…
sorry but you have a back four of liverpool, newcastle and west brom defence. You might as well chuck some Everton defence in there for good measure. Come on, what did you expect? And Arsenal are hardly tight at the back either
There is many good and some cheap alternatives
Leicester defence simpson + schmeichel, man u defence degea, PVA, spurs obviously
I dont get the logic of bring in a defence for a dgw if they suck defensively and a good defence with one game will almost certainly outscore them.
Lukealike,
It was a WC team that I made the night before deadline and was meant to change the next morning (something happened and I couldnt) so need to limit the damage done.
Plan would be to try get get 2 DGW’ers in so maybe Coutinho and Sakho out for Fab and Cresswell.
Had Simpson for most of the season and their last 3 games can be tricky so no point jumping on that boat now.
Had Smalling for a large portion as well.
Dier was also in the squad for a long term.
Got stupid with the WC when I tried getting all 15 to be DGW’ers last time
Liverpool, Newcastle and Arsenal all kept a CS within the double. Arsenal have the 4th best defensive record in the league and got another cleanie today, you just got unlucky with the actual personnel in relation to this week.
The only 1 player I had for the double from the supposedly ‘good’ defences was Simpson and he scored 1. The rest got me 6, 6, 15, 8, 13 and 17.
Innit,
My DGW WC had Martial and KDB (sold them both for Alli and Kane this GW luckily)
Just venting as I had a nice lead in my 1 ML and was right behind the leader in the other, now they one has about a 30 point lead and the other is about 12 points behind me… That and Klopp is killing me with his rotations!!
Hence need Alli (mainly) and Kane to go mental… Evans goal would also be amazing… is that asking for too much?
I can see Spurs knocking a few past them easily. Not sure about Evans though! Be interesting to see how Luke fared after his unnecessary castigation though!
Innit,
We live and learn…
Guess we will find out once its all said and done
The rest of us are used to crap GW’s at this stage
Kop,
I suffered through my fair share and then some for most of the season haha
Targeting 50K so this GW has not helped at all!!
