Live Match Chat Gameweek 35 FPL News
Welcome to Live Match Chat Gameweek 35 FPL News: After a sensational Alvaro Negredo display in DGW 34, we head into a buffer of sorts. With doubles in 34, 36 and 37, this GW we can relax a little, sort of. We kick it off with four 3pm fixtures. It is pure excitement when the low scoring Saints tangle with a difficult opponent to not score on, Hull. It should be a test of wills to see who underperforms more, the Saints attack or the Hull defence. If you think that doesn’t offer enough to make you fall asleep, perhaps a taste of Stoke vs West Ham? Over the last 10 matches these two are 16th in 17th in points and have scored 20 goals combined over those 10×2 games. Yeah, a goal a game. So snooze should be on the loose in this one. For those that don’t need a mid afternoon nap, I present to you Sunderland vs Bournemouth. This could provide us with comedy gold, in particular on defence, as neither team attempts to play any. The last of the opening 4 fixtures sees West Brom welcome in Leicester, yeah, moving on. In the 5:30 game Palace hosts those away stars, Burnley. With 3 draws in their last 6 away games, think we can say they are in-form, perhaps I will place a bet on them.
Luckily after enduring a Saturday of not having any real footy to watch and feeling properly rested, we come to Sunday. Yes, yes, yes, yes…sorry was watching when Harry met Sally orga, errrr, restaurant scene. Where were we at? Oh yes, Sunday footy. Lunch time sees the battle for fourth resume, as United tangles with a Swansea side who also has a lot to play for. Both teams in need of a win, will hopefully lead to some goals, maybe, Jose is capable of sucking the fun out of any game, so be aware. That is followed by two 2pm-ish encounters. Boro and their vaunted attack will look to score some goals, well, a goal vs City. City’s fans (player’s families) will want to get out of that red velvet sandwich they are currently caught in with LFC one point ahead and United one point behind tickling their tuckus. We also see Lukaku’s former and future employer Chesea visit Goodison looking to inch closer to the title. CFC has slowly let Spurs crawl back into the race, so they can break their hearts again at the end. In the last Sunday fixture we have the possibility of pure joy. We see the possibility of killing 2 dreams with one stone. When Spurs face Arsenal only one result would do us right. A loss for Tottenham would all but end Spurs title dreams to their bitter rivals and hopefully such a result would lead to a new contract for Wenger. Sounds like a win-win to me.
Monday finishes off the GW with Watford hosting Liverpool. Should be a very predictable game. If City and United win expect LFC to do also, If either of the Manchester sides drop points expect LFC to. If there is one thing we know is that if LFC is given an opportunity, they let it slip away.
Please join us as ever to discuss the games as they happen and share your feelings, successes and woes as the action unfolds and hopefully the FPL points flood in for you.

Mitro
I am looking but no can see you ? – another magician!
Mitro is at 11th!
He’s 11th.
There’s going to be a few disappointed people looking at the leader board there. T&C’s are very clear on that one in terms of what constitutes a ‘regular’. Colonial you could be getting a bigger prize than you expect here!
I reckon I can make top 4 😉
OK Mitro but don’t copy my moves then – this will be fun, and Rosco also in it too!
Ooh added drama!! Righto off to copy Mitros WC!!
Unlike Arsenal…….. 😉
Brooky
Git 😉
Not sure if I qualify Init. Do my regular comments count or is there more I need to do?
You’re more than fine.
Thank you. For full transparency I am just short of 2000. Is it a bit off to just jump in at this late stage? I fully understand if you think it is.
Sorry to be a nuisance but if I am allowed in, what do I need to do to join?
I don’t know! It’s advertised on every article still so I guess it’s ok. I doubt anybody would argue as long as it’s a reg that they recognise.
To join you need the code which you can get by emailing Elle. Instructions are at the end of the article above in one of the coloured boxes.
Ok, they’re not….!
Had a feeling that would happen just as I was typing
They’re at the end of (most/some) of the other articles, depending on who set them up!
Colonial
I’m a wizard 😉
Morning all.
Thoughts on this wc draft?
Morning Shane,
It’s pretty much like one of my drafts ( comment 124) or at least s mix of my two teams as if I take Gabbi it frees up a bit more cash to get Ali and Erik. On that basis I’d say I like it!!
Cheers rosco. Just bit unsure on gabby
Gabbiadini is a definite risk.
Yeah me too, think I’ll go Costa instead, I’d consider Rashford over Gabbi if money dictates that price bracket?
Shanec
If I had my WC I would be getting in Costa instead of gabbi!! (I have gabbi FFS)
Looks good Shane. How much money do you have left over?
No money left over
Leprechaun
Maybe bring in Montreal for Vert for this week and fund it by selling Pickford for a cheaper GK.
Monreal 0.1 dearer then vert. So can’t swap. These wc are stressful lol
And if you swap Pickford?
Could do this leprechaun.
Would like Costa but can’t afford him
Would have been a good week for my mate to have played bench boost…..Walker coming on for 3 mins is a heart breaker…..
Jeeez. That’s rough to take, especially this late into the season.
Hazard or Sanchez as cappo?
The DGW favours Sanchez
But form favours Hazard….
Absolutely true Brooky…..the point is that he gets 4 points for the 2 matches and 1assist or goal already beats a Hazard assist.
Hello all,
Hope peoples gameweek is going well.
My squad is set out below and Id appreciate peoples thoughts on moves I should make – just the 1FT (no wildcard available) Ive Bench Boost and Triple Captain still available
daboyo
Your move is entirely dependent on news on Aguero’s injury. If he’s out, then it would be Aguero to Jesus I think. Pretty sure you can get by with the rest of your side this week.
cheers Gallant Pioneer
Initially I was focused on Firmino to Sanchez and maybe Lukaku to Jesus for a hit but you are dead right – if Aguero is out he’ll go to Jesus
Triple Captain – would you hand it to Sanchez or hold it for GW38…BB is for GW37
Daboyo
I would lean towards using it on a DGW player so Sanchez this week gets my vote.
Hey D2,
Some good strength up front but a few issues that I see.
I would consider Aguero to Jesus and Zaha to Sanchez with the captain band going on the latter.
cheers Leprechaun – I was looking at Firmino to Sanchez but your suggestion works and id still have enough funds to do Lukaku to Costa for GW37…..
Triple Captain – would you hand it to Sanchez or hold it for GW38…BB is for GW37
If you are going to captain Sanchez this week then I think the TC makes sense.
58 all out for me. 5K up so far but I guess I`m looking at minimal red arrow. Firmihno, COuthino and autosub for Pieters should have impact. I`m 7 points ahead of my initial OR.
For next week what would be the consensus in regards to Arsenal players? Which of defenders could I consider?
My DF: Gibson, Valencia, Davies, Yoshida, Holgate
1FT, 0.9 ITB
I`m thinking to get rid of Gibson and either going for Stephens to have some cash for De Roon replacement in week 37 or drafting in any of Arsenal boys. Problem is that with rotation and Wenger tinkering with the system they play is totally unpredictable who will be the best option. If they would continue with 3 at the back I could consider Gibbs as he got into interesting advanced positions few times vs. Spurs. problem is that if Mustafi returns he might drop to the bench with Monreal moving to LWB.
Or should I just keep transfer and hope for the best?
Konstro,
How about Valencia to Monreal?
I`m trying to build team for DGW as I don`t have WC and was trying to avoid removing players from those teams with 2 games even if they are heavy rotation risk.
Out of single game players I still have De Roon, Gibson, Holgate and Lukaku.
I just have this sneaky feeling that Lukaku can do “Bounemouth” on Watford and I`m ready to take a chance on that and leave him in my team. Him blanking last few weeks makes me even more determined. And if anything he proved this season that after few blanks he always delivers.
I was considering Monreal for Gibson as the matter of fact and might go in that direction but that would mean that I have only choice of Capoue for De Roon before week 37 which is hardly pulse raising choice.
Thank you for your suggestion I have to say that great insights from this community are one of the main building blocks in my performance this season. I know that there are really excellent players here that OR is much better that mine but for me is my best season in 11 years (so far) and I have no slightest doubt that it was excellent decision to join this website. I really enjoy this season immensly.
konstro
I agree. Lukaku should be held on to in my opinion.
Could score well in his next two.
