Depends on who the three are

If its Cech, Salah, Firmino and Robertson its good
If its Foster, Hegazi, King and Ayew its not

In general the more the better, you should be able to look at and think you will get a minimum 16 extra points

It's Salah, Robertson, Mustafi & Fernandez.
Banking a FT this week, next week going Auba -> Kane & Son -> Lingard

For a BB to be beneficial (accounting for fixtures as well), how many DGW players would anyone recommend?
Looking at a BB in GW 34 with 11 players having DGW, so 26 games in total.

Looking for the best sub 4.6 midfielder for DGW 34.

It’s a shoot out between Lewis Cook (4 points) or Will Hughes (2 points but could be 7 or 9).

0.1 short for Ibe which is a pain.

Southampton's Steven Davis could drop to 4.6M tonight.

Like Cook he’s unlikely to score better than 2 x 2 points.

Also trying to avoid my midfielders or attackers playing against my defence.

Will Hughes it is.

Surman would have been my choice had he not lost his place. I thought he was playing decent earlier in the season and bagged more than 5 points on 6 occasions over 17 games.

Bournemouth starting to look fairly decimated.

Wonder will Surman get a run out. He played plenty of minutes early on in the season but I can’t find out if he lost his place or if he got injured.

Going off fplstatistics I’d be guessing he lost his place but I doubt that’s true.

Lost his place. He didn't suit Bournemouth's current style of play apparently.

What's the best way to go out about catching this fecker? I'm not overly happy with my team, to be expected as I haven't changed it in weeks!

And use Cartman's Spreadsheet here, in order to negotiate GW 34,35, and 37.

Need a bit of advice men.

Haven't followed fantasy football since the beginning of February. I'm 99 points behind the leader in a money league.

My team;

Foster
Smalling Christensen Otamendi
David Silva Walcott Salah Mahrez
Barnes Kane Firmino

Bench: Elliot, Kenedy, Tomkins and B Smith.

I still have all of my chips - wildcard, free hit, triple captain and bench boost to play.

Your team is good. Use your 2 FT and get new keepers would be my advice

I'm now sweating that he is being lined up to take over from me at ShineonHQ

Just 10 points in it now! But having all the chips still makes you huge favourite. Just BB and TC left for me. Gw 35 is probably where you pull clear.

Still might give you a bit of a sweat, hopefully a title race on the cards!

Still lots of games left and 10 points is easily made up.

Should be fun

Big Borg

Does anyone know why Gomes isn’t in goal for Watford anymore?

To sum up the outcome here, the -8 worked out pretty well.

Aguero (0), Shaq (2) & Wilson (2) = 4 points. (Naughton got 1 who'd of come in) = 5 points total
Lukaku (8), Auba (13) & MickyT (1) = 22 points -8 = 14

So 9 points gained, MickyT being the failure.

Ended up with 70 (-8) points in total for the week and I stayed at 293rd.

I'm hanging on in the top 300 at the moment and I've been unsure what to do all week.

I have all my chips left.

I've decided to hold my wildcard and I've taken a - 8.

Out: Shaq, Wilson & Aguero
In: MikcyT, Lukaku & Aubameyang

Leaving me with:

Lossl
Yedlin Mee Robertson
Salah Mahrez Walcott MikeyT
Lukaku Firmino Aubameyang (C)
Elliot Naughton Carroll Bauer

2.8 ITB

Not exactly happy but I'm hoping holding the wildcard for another few weeks will give me some benefits and flexibility. We'll soon see!

Any thoughts or advice welcome. I could still wildcard...

FH could be worth 20/30 pts so yes 60 is very doable
Also you are better set up for DGW and bench boost

The fella in my ML who's in second behind me used FH in GW31 (I think (whichever the skinny one was!)) and gained 30 points on me so it's definitely valuable.

That said though, I don't think he's too well set up for GW 34 and 37, or even 35 to an extent so *hopefully* it'll backfire on him in the end! :pac:

In one of my MLs I am now 60 behind a rival. Was closer to a hundred but made some dents recently. Do ye think it's possible to close the gap?

My squad
Ddg/fab
bong/Morgan/legenue/Fernandez/lowton
Salah/son/willian/gross/mahrez
Lukaku/PEA/Austin

His squad
Ddg/Elliot
Robertson/azpi/mustafi/Jones/babies
Salah/Miki/Sterling/fernandino/tpt
Jesus/firmino/j Ayew

I have FH and BB. Him just the BB.

I feel I'm well set to have a decent DGW34 team with no hits required. FH then 35 and most likely BB 37.

Don't know if anyone else follows the Irish lads at the top of the table but Inchihardcores is up to 4th overall this week.

:cool:
