Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Arsenal

Sunday could actually be a “super” one in Gameweek 5. It begins at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea host Arsenal with an array of major Fantasy assets taking to the turf.

Alvaro Morata is perhaps the key attacking option on show. The Spaniard has recorded three goals and two assists – all with his head – since arriving at Chelsea and is supported by 912,000+ owners, with 182,000 (20%) of those backing him with the captaincy.

Alexandre Laczette is in opposition and, surprisingly perhaps, remains well backed in Fantasy terms.

Despite suffering 92,000+ sales heading into Gameweek 5, the French striker is still retained by 600,000 managers and has 141,000 (23%) of those trusting him with their Gameweek captaincy.

Elsewhere, the performances of wing-backs Marcos Alonso and Sead Kolasinac will be closely tracked.

The Chelsea man is owned by 21.2% of FPL managers having picked up another 40,000 new managers ahead of yesterday’s deadline.

Kolasinac’s following is more modest (10.7%) and yet, following his goal in the midweek Champions League tie, he is building momentum ahead of two favourable home fixtures (WBA BHA).

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Pickford mistake...easy save really

      Yah. Poor goalkeeping isn't pointed out as much as there is.

        That's not strictly true is it... I suppose he should have saved Kane's "cross" last time as well.

    Mkhi assist?

  4. FlockofSeagulls

    Lol, the past 2 weeks I've been saying Valencia can't cross and doesn't shoot enough to justify his price and then he does that. 😆

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He still doesn't.

    2. Bushido
      • 7 Years

      I got rid of Valencia for blind for two weeks ago. That's the worst transfer I've made.

    Foster Elliot
    Jones bavies naughton Cedric mbemba
    Pogba alli atsu Salah Carroll
    Kane morata firmino

    0.1itb Pogba for silva is basically guaranteed. Should I take out Kane for aguero as well and then swap back next week?

      I don't think planning to swap back is ever a good idea, assuming you're talking about Aguero back to Kane.

      I'm thinking of swapping Kane and Hernandez to Aguero and Morata and downgrading a defender for a -8.

      My main worry is that actually I really fancy Kane away to West Ham, Spurs are better away and Kane loves a London derby. It's not going to be back to the walls for West Ham, should be fairly open for Kane and Eriksen to find a lot of space.

    Is Kun rising tonight?

    1. GoodFella93
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Highly doubt it, he went up last night.

    2. Captain Roberto
      • 6 Years

      Might rise again Monday night. He on 184000 Net+ today

      1. Captain Roberto
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Sorry. 154000 (84%)

    3. Captain Roberto
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Rose again to 11.6 as I thought he might

  7. GoodFella93

    Kolasinac or Bellerin?

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Bellerin by a mile

      1. GoodFella93
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Can you expand on that? Kolasinac's presence at set pieces is what I'm thinking...

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Kola

    3. Kristobal
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Definitely Kolasinac.

    4. Captain Roberto
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      The big lad loves a good shot. Gives him the edge.

    2. JonSnow

      1. AdamJ91

        Foster
        Bertrand - Luiz - Maguire
        Eriksen - Mkhi - Brady - Richarlison
