Gameweek 34 Wildcard Thread

Good team. My first draft is similar with 10 of the same players:

Ryan Foster
Kola Duffy Laporte Trippier Robertson
Sterling Eriksen Mane Jota Camaraso(JWP for 35)
Kane Jiminez Deeney

Camaraso has 2 games this week so I'll swap to JWP next week. I'll be bench boosting next week too but Im 0.5 short on an upgrade of Sterling to Salah for Huddersfield in GW36 so I'll need to downgrade someone.

I've changed 4 players with the Kane injury. In come Doherty, Son, Salah and Aguero for Kola, Sterling, Mane and Kane and 2.3M left over for upgrading Camaraso:

Ryan Foster
Doherty Duffy Laporte Trippier Robertson
Salah Eriksen Son Jota Camaraso
Aguero Jiminez Deeney

It's a bit "safe" but I made a mess of my free hit team in the last DGW so keeping it simple this time.

If you have the TC chip still left, would you not use it for Liverpool's home game against Hudersfield?

I do agree that with what you are saying above, if you go TC 35 and BB 36 the you would have broadly the same amount of players playing.

Would you not be better getting rid of your Brighton players after GW 34?

Personally if I was BB in a SGW I'd rather load up on players with good fixtures that week that I'd be happy with for the rest of the season. I' already worried about getting rid of my Brighton players after GW35!

This is my current WC draft
Ryan Foster
Laporte Robertson Coady Duffy Valery

Eriksen Sterling Son Jota Camarasa

Aguero Rashford Jiminez

Which Liverpool player though? Mane has cooled off and neither Salah or Firmino are reliable at present.

I would get rid of Brighton after GW35 using my 2 FT. I didn't include that as I'd see closer to the time who I'd bring in.

Lots of options here.

Like many, I'm WCing with the view to take full advantage of BB in DGW 35.

I haven't much to lose so probably would be looking for a slightly puntier team.

Any thoughts on the below?

Loris / Foster

Laporte / Duffy / Dunk / Robbo / Bednarek

Mane / Son / Jota / Sterling / Ward-Prowse

Aguero / Deeney / Jiminez

£1.2 ITB

Likely will do Dunk to Kolasinac for GW35.


3 City
2 Spurs
2 Pool
2 Watford
2 Wolves
2 Soton
2 Brighton


Is no United a risk? Might Rashford be a better shout than Deeney (could do this by going TAA over Robbo)?

Jota and Jiminez may be a little overkill I like the deeney pick could get rashford instead of Jiminez

All the Deeney over Rashford love. I don't see it

Good shout, Liverpool remaining fixtures:
Chelsea (h)
Cardiff (a)
Huddersfield (a)
Newcastle (a)
Wolves (a)

Definitely keeping Robertson anyway!

The Huddersfield and Wolves games are at home.

I am really struggling with this wildcard ....

Same. Kinda made it easier when we had Kane to splash out on as that made everything else fit into place more!

Not seeing much of Murray in the WC teams, is there a fear he won't be able for the 2 games this week?

Hes getting on and it's not like hes prolific hes only scored in 2 of his last 16 league games. No doubt he has it in him but it just looks very unlikely right now.

Still not too sure with a couple players here. Aguero is a no brainer for me we've seen in the past he always shows up and he wasn't picked by users.

Sane is a doubt for me whether to go with or not. Worried about his game time this stage of season. Also I am about lacazette.. The options I have is either

Sane and Llorente or Lacazette and Knockaert??

Ryan

Laporte Duffy Valery

Son (C) Mane Knockaert Eriksen

Aguero Lacazette Rashford

Bench-
Dubravka TAA Doherty Doucoure



Any advice here lads?

Why is Dubravka there? Assuming you're planning to BB in the DGW??

Never even taught of him to be honest.. I'll get rid now lol

Edit: just brought in Leno

This wildcard is becoming more of a headache than a good thing who even are the essentials at this stage? Robbo or taa but no double. Only pogba and sterling out of the top 7 owned mids have doubles but pogba has dropped off so could go without him. Aguero Jiminez rashford the top 3 strikers rashford hasn't looked great recently either tho.

Im set on

Lloris Ryan

Duffy taa valery

Sterling son

Auba deeney

The other 6 spots I haven't got a clue

Looking at a budget backline anyway.
A wolves defender either Doherty jonny or coady. Probably cathcart too as Watford cover.

Am considering siggy for this week and upgrade to a doubler next week. But then do I splash out for aguero or get kdb as city cover. Does hazard make the cut? I had been set on him second guessing now. Probably need a United attacker pogba martial or rashford. Or will Lukaku get enough minutes to justify him? Be a nice differential. If no Jiminez id like jota.

Argh my head is gone I'm logging out for a few hours

i'm not doubling up on Brighton for the exact same reason.

Could get it horribly wrong, but with Cardiff fighting for their lives they will have to press forward more surely and threaten, Bournemouth could score in any game

More or less final draft here:

---

Foster -- Ryan

Robertson -- Verthonghen -- Valery -- Duffy -- Boly

Sterling -- Mane -- Erikson -- Son --- Hojbjerg

---

Deeney -- Jimenez -- Vardy

2.8 left in the bank to upgrade Vardy ---> Aguero if need be. Could also use the cash to get Salah back in if he takes fire. Just swapped Laporte out for Verthonghen. Spurs fixtures are decent outside of the City fixture, ( Brighton & West Ham at home) & he's a guaranteed starter. Plenty for bench boost in GW35 & also a tentative eye on the remainder of the season. Hop I've found the right balance
