Dugout Discussion – Bournemouth vs Chelsea

Saturday’s events end at the Vitality Stadium with AFC Bournemouth hosting champions Chelsea.

A high profile fixture for Fantasy managers, it’s importance has been elevated by Harry Kane’s injury which helped to spark 320,000 investors in Alvaro Morata. More than 132,000 of those arrived from the Spurs striker.

Morata disappointed on his return to Chelsea’s XI against Watford at Stamford Bridge, producing a single point from a 60-minute display. But four of his six goals for the Blues have arrived on the road and the Spaniard has had more big chances in away matches than any other player.

Eden Hazard is the other prize asset on show. He’s considered to dip in points output away from home, having scored 12 of his 16 goals last season on home turf. Yet to score this season, the Belgian boasts four goals in his last three matches against the Cherries.

Fantasy interest in Eddie Howe’s side is somewhat limited, with Charlie Daniels their top owned player; he is part of 9.3% of squads, though 45% of his managers have benched him for this evening’s clash.

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

    Lacazette has burned me more than once now. Not sure I'll go there again for a while.

      The Casette.

      1 point different. Not really worth bringing up.

      Someone was bound to get benched. You managed to second guess Pep but it won't happen again. Feel for Andy though, he bought Aguero for a hit.

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️

        High risk, high reward.

  15. FPL ZB

    And it was onside and an Azpilicueta assist. Devastating.

  16. Aston-villain

  18. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Morata would have been on a hat-trick by now

    Anyone actually having a decent GW? Surely it's going to be a lowscoring gameweek.

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      how is that weird?

      1. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Sorry hungover. It's been a weird day scoring wise is what I mean.

  22. ★Kuntheman★

    Azpi assist Morata(vc) goal disallowed

  23. Dr. DOOM
    • 6 Years

    Beautiful cross

  24. Alnair

    6 years, 6 months ago

    If you are a Morata owner you have every right to be disgusted right now

    1. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      feeling pretty optimistic that something is coming. it's worse if nothing is happening

  25. Meinhoff
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Judging by your comments Morata the best pick from Chelsea despite his misses

  26. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Sterling and Kun will 'probably' start next week, right?

  27. Pacer.
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    got morata and luiz

    looks promising at the moment with both getting into good positions

  28. But to who Chris Kamara
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Should I get rid of Joe hart considering he got 7 saves.

    If I should which goalkeeper should I get for up to 5.1m

  29. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Chelsea will score shortly.... Hazard will be involved
