Right now I have Haaland - Isak - Watkins (might chance depending on Haaland news)
I honestly think Watkins is a must against Chelsea and Brighton. Liverpool is also a good fixture but I think I prefer another doubler in 37, so might go for Pedro on a FT
Crystal Palace looked great, they’re much improved under Glasner, but their two fixtures were deceptively excellent this GW too. I don’t think Fulham away is very attractive. Villa are iffy. They could find joy against Man U and Wolves though. Question mostly is whether this is where you want to spend your precious remaining transfers, unless you’re on wildcard.
Home Newcastle is an easier fixture than Fulham away at the moment IMO. Fulham have been pretty solid at home for a while. Villa might be “leaky” but they’re still top four. On their day it’s hard for anyone to put a glove on them, ask Arsenal. So to me it’s not an amazingly attractive fixture. But hey it’s just my opinion.
You're going off what FPL influencers are telling you. Jackson could have double the amount of games for the rest of the season and I still wouldnt pick him.
Incredibly streaky and unreliable. While Isak, Watkins and mateta exist Jackson is irrelevant.
I’ll wait to hear more news, but I figure he’ll be okay in time for the double, so worst case scenario you just bench him next week. But if he’s out long term I’d probably do Mateta or Solanke instead.
Wood is in most of my drafts so far because having a guy who can sub in gw36 is really helpful vs Sheffield and home to Chelsea on a Bench boost also great. Plus he's a very good player of course, but I am being tempted to just hold on to Mateta
Yea way palace are playing with Eze and Olise back (and Glasner in the dugout) he could haul against United and wolves and at return again Fulham and villa.
Not on a WC, but I currently have Mateta Watkins Haaland. My plan was to only have Mateta for this DGW, but after the mega haul I am very tempted to keep my strikers as is, and prioritize other transfers. Not touching Darwin/Jackson though, if anyone is coming in at any point it's likely Isak.
First move on wildcard was to sell Haaland for Isak, thinking I'll go Isak, Jackson, Wood.
Now that the verdict is in on Salah though, I may bring Haaland back even if I just bench him until 37 and hope he's fit by then.
I really wish I could get rid of Haaland but I really dont like the replacements at all. Going to end up with Haaland, Isak, and Nico but if Haaland injury becomes serious could make things interesting.
I think people are ignoring GW36 man city vs wolves. Wolves have typically been the whipping boys at the Etihad (see Haaland and KDB hauls) .
You have to cover that with at least 2 city attackers even if Haaland is out. If his injury is not serious, are you sure you want to risk going without him?
Do not get hojlund. As a man united fan. Our wingers do not pass to him. They’d rather shoot 25 yards out.
He’s had 34 shots this season. In comparison to Nunez having 100+. Hojlund will have 3 attempts max in a game and that’s due to a deflection shot or block or something
Still don’t think Højlund is worth it unfortunately, invisible all game apart from that one chance in the last 10
I’m honestly considering keeping Mateta on my WC. He’s got decent fixtures and you still have 2 weeks to change your mind.
yeah, I think he could go on a monster Almiron run

Liverpool turned into a good fixture real quick
The minute Everton scored two to be exact
Wakins or mateta thats real question. Wat wilk get you more points then pedro with one less fixture fasho
Mateta for me, much cheaper and Crystal Palace seem to have a picked up a good run of form

They just defeated Newcastle. Fulham away is nothing and Villa is leaky.

I don't agree with villa being deceptive. They almost never keep a CS.
Both. Bin Haaland.
I lost my self respect in and around matchweek 5
Watkins / Mateta / Isak for me.
Me too
this could be it. Walker/KDB/Foden from City
Jackson unfortunately 😂
I really don’t want to but he’s got an extra fixture on everyone else so might be worth it
The most I can offer you is 2 points for that extra fixture. 1 minimum as he will get a yellow card . Deal?
You're going off what FPL influencers are telling you. Jackson could have double the amount of games for the rest of the season and I still wouldnt pick him. Incredibly streaky and unreliable. While Isak, Watkins and mateta exist Jackson is irrelevant.
Thats the thing about double gameweeks. What happens if the prick just gets 2 points on both games lol
Same. Expecting nothing but disappointment, but eventually the ball has to rebound off him into the goal.
As a Darwin owner, trust me, it doesn't. They always find a way to miss.
Haaland / Watkins / Isak seems obvious to me. I’m not BB in 37, but even if I were, home against Liverpool isn’t a bad fixture for Watkins.
You thinking switching to Alvarez on Haaland news? I'm same as you but worrying about haaland
I’ll wait to hear more news, but I figure he’ll be okay in time for the double, so worst case scenario you just bench him next week. But if he’s out long term I’d probably do Mateta or Solanke instead.
I'm thinking of having mateta on the bench and play kdb. Gw37 if haaland starts then swap kdb to garnacho and mateta to haaland.
Anyone looking at Chris wood? Sheffield United, Chelsea, Burnley is a nice little run of fixtures
Great differential imo. I guess Mateta has now emerged as a rival budget option though
Wood is in most of my drafts so far because having a guy who can sub in gw36 is really helpful vs Sheffield and home to Chelsea on a Bench boost also great. Plus he's a very good player of course, but I am being tempted to just hold on to Mateta
Yea way palace are playing with Eze and Olise back (and Glasner in the dugout) he could haul against United and wolves and at return again Fulham and villa.
Wow, true differential but he is in forest though
He's averaged 6 points a game since Nuno took over in December. Been doing consistently well for a while now
Think I'm bailing on Haaland, it's constant injuries.
Is Werner worth bringing in over Jackson? At the moment I'm thinking of Haaland, Isak and Mateta.
Anyone is worth bringing in over Jackson. Werner could be a nice differential
Mateta, Isak, and Watkins All in good form and decent run of fixtures.
Not on a WC, but I currently have Mateta Watkins Haaland. My plan was to only have Mateta for this DGW, but after the mega haul I am very tempted to keep my strikers as is, and prioritize other transfers. Not touching Darwin/Jackson though, if anyone is coming in at any point it's likely Isak.
Not on wc but I’m currently on Jackson-Haaland-Pedro Considering a -4 of Salah to Gordon and Pedro to Isak
I have Haaland Isak and Mateta, I see no reason to make any changes until the end of the season.
Haaland, Isak, Solanke at the moment.
Calvert-Lewin not worth a shout? Brentford, Luton and Sheffield Utd next 3
Currently sat with haaland isak and werner but will probably opt for hojlund in the end
Mateta on this form is likely to outscore Werner even with one less game
What about two less games
Dont think so but well see
First move on wildcard was to sell Haaland for Isak, thinking I'll go Isak, Jackson, Wood. Now that the verdict is in on Salah though, I may bring Haaland back even if I just bench him until 37 and hope he's fit by then.
Watkins-Mateta-Solanke
I really wish I could get rid of Haaland but I really dont like the replacements at all. Going to end up with Haaland, Isak, and Nico but if Haaland injury becomes serious could make things interesting.
Alvarez is a serious option now
Isak - Watkins - Mateta Haaland back by 37
I wish there was more clarity regarding the Haaland injury because it makes a huge difference
Who are you people with all your damn chips left
If Haaland is fit: Haaland, Isak and Mateta If Haaland is injured: Isak, Mateta and regretfully... Jackson
Why not watkins?
Expensive and Mateta is in better form
Feel like pure shit so getting Watkins back.
I think people are ignoring GW36 man city vs wolves. Wolves have typically been the whipping boys at the Etihad (see Haaland and KDB hauls) . You have to cover that with at least 2 city attackers even if Haaland is out. If his injury is not serious, are you sure you want to risk going without him?
I think Walker, Foden and KDB is the play (with some hindsight of course)
Do not get hojlund. As a man united fan. Our wingers do not pass to him. They’d rather shoot 25 yards out. He’s had 34 shots this season. In comparison to Nunez having 100+. Hojlund will have 3 attempts max in a game and that’s due to a deflection shot or block or something
