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.

    Siggy as striker!!!

    Glad I brough him in 😀

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

      He's playing left wing.

    2. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He'll probably play behind Rooney

        Not according to Everton official twitter

          Those aren't always accurate

          1. Neeskens Under Matip
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            It will be 5-5-0. Rooney as a false nine...

    Hazard could be the one to get in for Chelsea attack.

    Hold your horses on Morata.

    Everton starting XL: Pickford, Martina, Keane, Williams, Jagielka, Baines, Schneiderlin, Gueye, Davis, Sigurdsson, Rooney

    Jagielka is back. Get in my team son.

    Everton playing 3-5-2 with Sigurdsson and Rooney upfront

    A disaster in attack for Everton

    1. FPL Maldini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Why?

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

        I've seen pairings in senior centre teams having more pace.

      2. Mark-O
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        DCL, Ramirez, Mirallas, Klassen on the bench

        Easy CS points for Man Utd defence

    2. Differentiator

      Propper Gross

      1. La Roja

        I'd go for one of Brighton players

    Is Mustafi still celebrating?

    Arsenal properly parking the bus now.

  13. FlockofSeagulls

    Channing Tatum in the stands watching.

    He's so dreamy for a dumb human!

    1. Neeskens Under Matip
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      His Doris looks alright as well...

  14. HoserHut
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Hazard has changed the entire dynamic of this game

  15. Dr. DOOM

    Channing Tatum is a blue? 😀

    1. Big P
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      They won the title last year. They may change next season.

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

    Everton could really do with Mirallas in that side for that bit of pace.

  17. R.C
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Koeman lost it when he stopped starting Calvert Lewin

    He's the fastest player upfront ffs

    1. Neeskens Under Matip
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Not sure about fastest, but the only one who can win a header, has been the target man since Lukaku left...

    Everton are making Rooney wear a shirt with Angry Birds on it.

    Create your own jokes.

    3. Mark-O

      That's Groß

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

      Good to see Rooney use his shenanigans into getting a sponsor for the club.

    5. FlockofSeagulls
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Better than an angry pig.

      SportPesa have a sense of humour

      Anything for money.

      Chelsea sponsored by a tyre company. Bet they get some stick.
      Get a Grip.

      Arsenal by an Airline. Their season hasn't taken off yet.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Sunderland last season were sponsored by a betting company who stopped taking bets on them at Xmas to be relegated.

    Sorry for the question but i couldn't watch any football this weekend. Why Davies didn't play?

    1. Neeskens Under Matip
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Rumours of an injury, rumours of "protecting" him from is old club's fans, he is a back up. Son played left wing back...

  20. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Davies needs to be playing regularly.

    1. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Tom Davies

  21. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Arsenal used all three transfers, unlucky Ospina owners.....

  22. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Everton are going to be parking the bus today. They don't need an attacking threat.

    1. Big P
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Koeman always parks the bus.

  23. Debauchy
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Great game this , win lose or draw

    1. Big P
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Meh

      1. Debauchy
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        sad lad

  24. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    6 minutes for Kola and Alonso to both score

  25. seewhyaxe
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Bellerin is better than Ox, they said...

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He is.

    2. seewhyaxe
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      come on, Kola. Make it 3 bps!!!

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

      He is, no competition.

    4. HoserHut
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He was real good today

  26. Mark-O
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Probably Ox was a jinx to Arsenal and now Arsenal seemed to see better days with him gone

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Wenger was playing Ox to appease him and make him stay. With him gone, Kola can play at LWB. Bellerin can play at RWB. That immediately improves them.

  27. Patty
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Kolasinac on the bench 🙁

    1. Mark-O
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Really Lame Choice made

    2. Sánchez
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Don't ever do that

    3. HoserHut
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Should really play a 6 M ars defender against any side

    4. Neeskens Under Matip
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Me to, on the bench behind Dunk!
