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.

    What’s everyone’s opinion on aguero and city as a whole, can we really justify paying out 11.8 for a striker we cannot guarantee will play? Surely morata and kaku are safer options and opt for a 2 man midfield from city of Sterling, sane or silva?

    1. BoleynWin
      • 6 Years

      FPL isn’t about playing safe though, Kaku will start every week but has serious limitations to his explosiveness. Kane is in a league of his own in my opinion when it comes to FPL prospects, when fit.

      i went triple city midfield. Sane, Sterling, Sane all look great value on a points per million basis and even with rotation look a good bet for next 5 games. having an 8.5 mid sit out a GW doesnt feel as bad as a benched Kun or Jesus.

    If Kane isn't fit for Palace, I'm going to buy back Lukaku. All the popular premium forwards have tough games but I will need him for his two favourable home games. Have Jesus and Tammy too.
