GW31 Matchday Thread. How minus to go?

ElTel

I'm not sure if it's the calm before the storm when the chips come out for the finish or if the FHiters have stolen a march and I'm 30pts behind just like that!!

Be disappointed if I don't make a bit of ground this week

mdwexford

I've no idea what to do.

Main rival has free hit so will field a full team presumably.

I have 5 possible players and 2 transfers.

Fml.

Worry about youself. and tell me you have a WC too!
2fts means FHing looses loses a transfer opportunity.

Transfer out Kane should be the first free?. Then make a plan (around the 20th when our Ben Crelin spreadsheet gets locked in

ElTel

TAA Robertson Bauer
Salah Pritchard
Wilson Quanar

Stanislas for Hazard is likely to be my other FT.

Trimm Trabb

On a free hit:

Butland

PVA Baines Smith

Salah Mane Stanislas Zaha Shaqiri

Firmino Wilson

Subs: Lossl, Mounie, Coleman, Zanka

Only worries are the lack of Walcott and whether Wilson starts for Bournemouth.

Hoping for about 30 points from the 8 non-Liverpool players and a decent jump in rankings.

Trying to resist the urge to fh.

Cartman78

No hits....hoping to beat last week's score of 20 and generally tread water and maintain money league lead...

Butland

Hegazi | Robertson | Kenny

Shaquiri | Walcott | Stanislas | Salah (C)

Mounie | Firmino

Not expecting Kenny to feature, and doubts over Shaq and Theo...so could end up yet with a unique 2-2-2 formation

VVD, Daniels, Tomkins

Firmino, Wilson.

No hit and actually banking a FT. Using it effectively commits me to using the WC next week and there isn’t any stand out striker I could bring in anyway. I’m holding Mahrez in midfield due to value considerations, so bringing in a 5th mid isn’t an option.

Transfer banked, looking forward to the end of this GW tbh.

Anfield express who seem to get as much wrong as right say Gomez starts over TAA.

spock.

Salah Shaqiri Stanislas
Firmino Mounie Niasse

Niasse and Shaqiri might not play, and Mariappa could end up with 0 so not looking good.

Fly Keeper.
Kenny, VVD, Zanka, Mariappa.
Salah(c), Van Le Parra, EMCM.
Firmino, Wilson.

Shame about Gylfi Sig, would have filled it up nicely.
Probably bring in Stanislas for him for a -4 as rivals have him (and its really only a -2 etc etc).
All chips still standing.

EMCM? Do you see Van le Parra doing much?
I am regretting not getting someone like van lá parra or Zaha in for the difference

Bloke on FFS (appraently a stoke employee) says Choupo isn't starting and Shaqiri should start. https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2018/03/17/spot-the-differential-gameweek-31-6/?hc_page=9#hc_comment_17823137

EMCM = Stoke middie and relentless 2pointer Eric Choupo Moting.
May not start according to above post though.

Don't really see anyone doing much, but obviously someone has to get a goal and every game no matter how bad will still have a 3,2,1 bonus so just a case of firing a few darts I guess.

Ace2007

took -8 and have

Lossl
Zanka, Francis, PVA
McAthur, Walcott, Salah (c), Mane
Firmino, Wilson, Tosun

Have 9.8m in bank to sort out next few weeks.

elefant

I'm reading on twitter that Sorloth is rumoured not to have travelled with Palace today due to injury. Makes Benteke a more appealing option, especially with Zaha back.

They actually responded to a tweet of mine this morning when I suggested that the verdict on here is that they delete tweets when they get it wrong.

To quote:
‘Need to let your forum know that they’re wrong mate’

CSF

Has there been any murmurs re the Bournemouth team?

billymitchell

A guy in my work league is going -28. When I explained to him about all the dross he will have in his team for the she's(no FH or WC) left, he shuffled suspiciously back to his desk. I reckon another -28 coming up next week!

I hopefully have 9 this week, Walcott permitting. More than enough me thinks

No keeper either myself so playing my 'last man back' chip.

loadwire

Made a complete arse of things by overthinking transfers and forgetting that you can only field 7 of you front 8. So have wasted the chance to get another defender on the pitch and now have this front 8:
Ibe / Walcott / Salah / Shaq / Milivojevic
Mounie / Benteke / Firmino

One or two are doubtful but assuming they all play who would you bench? Currently have it on Mili

shineon23

Despite not wanting to go all out on this Gw I'm Accidently fielding 11 with a -4.
Wildcarding soon to sort this mess out.

This is very interesting. The Shaq attack was my planned -8 hit. I may bite the bullet

KizzyMonster

Is it worth going -16 to field ten players?

Personally I wouldn't. Especially not defenders

Serious amount of Stan owners on this thread. Need him to stay quiet!

On a free hit. Worth chancing Zaha?

CSF

Can't figure out between Stanislas and Wilson. Defoe a dark horse. I'm wildcarding straight after the games are finished so I can deal with it if my decision doesn't pay off.

Stanislas seems the safest bet, Wilson a less safe but with more upside. Defoe the least safe, but with the most upside. Why is FPL seemingly always like this?

Mane, Salah and Stanislas a definite 3. Possibly Walcott too. But I'm looking at playing 3-5-2, so Zaha could slot in. Think I'll pick him. But with the Shaq news I'm now thinking Shaq or Walcott....
