Dugout Discussion – Watford vs Arsenal

Saturday’s action comes to a conclusion at Vicarage Road as Watford entertain Arsenal in the 5.30pm kick-off.

We have a chance to scout budget midfielder Richarlison as the fixtures fall in the Hornets’ favour from Gameweek 10.

The Brazilian has bagged three goals and two assists already, though has yet to find the net in front of his own supporters.

For the Gunners, there’s no Alexis Sanchez or Aaron Ramsey, while Mesut Ozil only warms the bench.

Alex Iwobi – at just 5.1 – earns a third start in four Gameweeks in light of his strike against Brighton last time out.

Meanwhile, Alexandre Lacazette, the fourth top captain choice for this round of fixtures, looks to break his away drought, with all four of the Frenchman’s goals arriving at the Emirates.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

        Fixtures aren't great.

      Still mulling over eriksen>hazard. gonna Cost me 13 goddam points!!

      1. COYS.
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Meeting too.
        I even captained hazard over Jesus and sterling .. feeling like a fool now

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Could be worse, for a 4 or hit I did Hegazi > Bavies instead of Ramsey > Sterling...think that's a 19 point swing right there

      3. Rash
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I know it's not much help now but selling the highest mid in the game with a plum fixture for a player who's stats suggest he don't get Many points away from home is a very bad move imo

        Getting rid of erriksen before Bournemouth ........

      5. grumpyman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Yep, my week would have been spectacular if I'd just kept my favourite ever FPL player. Doh.

    7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Very interesting day's results - Palace in particular suddenly look like a good source of cut price players - Zaha, RLC, Dann, PVA all look viable.

      Aguero to return next week, maybe Morata too, Hazard & Alonso flopped, Sterling, Silva, Sané all set for more price rises... Richarlison confirms he is the real deal plus runs risk of 2 game retro ban for diving... same for Kaku for backheeling Lovern's face... Bavies, Ramsey, Bailly don't even make the bench, Harry Kane fails again at home (who'd have predicted 6 points from SWA, BUR, BOU home fixtures!) Tammy Abraham making a mockery of his 5.5 price tag. Liverpool keep another home CS...

      Think it'll pay to pause, take a deep breath & hold onto all FT's until as late as possible, who the hell knows what'll happen next.

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

        Kane was 12 points ... captained for all three of those matches 🙁

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Same here 2-2-2 is bizarre for those fixtures & his price tag + the amount of chances created

      2. Fanta sea
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I've still got my Wildcard so I'm happy with all the confusion currently. Gameweek 11 will be the time to Wildcard for me.

      3. THE SHEEP HUNTERS

        Good summary.

      4. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        How can Kaku get banned for that? Didn’t look intentional at all?

        I kind of stopped being surprised of English fans after Beckham got all the hate for his mock red card vs Argentina

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Personally I think it would be very harsh if he did get banned, for exactly that reason. Very difficult to prove intent as he's not looking at the player. But you never know what the panel would decide, they may want to make an example

      5. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        And Sanchez is a no show....

      6. *Reformed-Character*
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Tammy is 5.6

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Yep, I'd say he'll be 6.0 soon enough, actually looks a good third forward for those not looking to go with three of Kane, Kaku, Kun, Morata, Jesus, Lacazette

    8. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Sterling in or missed the boat?

      1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Nope, great option going forward.

      2. Saïss Doesn't Mat…
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        got him in yesterday but now unsure because of wolverine's return

    9. Only a Hazard of time
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Captain Kyle Walker wasn't the worst decision in hindsight seeing how my other choices (Lukaku and Lacazette) turned out. Rotten week overall though.

    10. skodaole2
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Richarlison about to be banned... is that true? What did he do?

      1. Junior ⚽
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Dive

      2. Team Cruel

        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Wait for news, penalty dive possibly.

      4. Pariße
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Dived. I don't think he actually did, it was a position where he could fall, because he was in full sprint, but it was never a penalty.

      5. skodaole2
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        That is a new rule so we ll have to wait then.. cheers everyone. Just got him so it would be bad to have to get rid asap

      6. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Think the 'meedja', FPL Twitter clowns just want someone to fall foul of the new rules.

      Richarlison & Lukaku looking at a retrospective 5-7 stretch in the clink?

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        If Lukaku gets a ban it might be a good time to do Kaku>Kun really don't want to sell Kaku though

    14. Wild Rover

      Funny that most of the no-shows were from teams that didn't qualify for the WC

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

        Yep. Ramsey and Sanchez, Wenger was in no position to afford giving them a rest.

      2. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Where did Kane go?!

    15. Rainer

      Average after BAPs:
      - Top 10k - 39.9
      - Overall - 34.1

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years

        I hate this stuff, spoils all the fun of waiting for ranks

      2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Those Watford goals were really brilliant for non-Arsenal owners. Top 10k was around 43 when Arsenal were 1-0 up.

      3. FER FUSCH AKE

        does that cater for hits too because am on 40(-4)

          There must be some seriously challenged players entering this comp mate!

      2. the snazzy viking

        35(-4) with Maguire and Ritchie to play.

    18. Ode

      As an Arsenal fan i'm not really surprised from this result

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

        Xhaka and Elneny starting together was asking for trouble. Wenger also played 2 unfit players (Welbeck & Koscielny) before even thinking about giving Wilshere a go.

      2. COYS.
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Can you please tell why on the earth was Alexis not in squad today ?

    19. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Had a shit week 24pts with two to play. But if you are going to have a crap week better to have one when the average is below 40.

      1. Shultan

        Fortunately, first on bench and Bavies played in a 4-3-3.

        About the only decent thing that’s happened to me in 8 GW’s.

    21. Cadenza

      Firmino out for Abraham a no- brainer right?

        If he gets a ban - yes, otherwise, not yet... but Kane > Kun is a possibility... the extra 1.5m is really starting to weigh Kane down

      Not usually a big judge of others but having played at this level that penalty was the worst I've seen.

      Do folk think that rlc walks straight into the palace team next weekend?

      Or will Roy keep faith with a winning team?

      Thanks

        Will be watching this with great interest myself. Either way, it looks like Zaha has finally arrived, 0.3m cheaper than GW1 & with lovely fixtures for ages

      40 with Dunk, Bertrand and Vardy to play?

      How's everyone looking so far?

        40 with Elliot, Vardy, Dawson (off bench).

        44 post baps with Cedric, Maguire, Gross and Vardy to play...not too bad but really need Vardy to turn up to the party.

      Any chance Richarlison gets banned for that pen decision?
      Surely there was contact right?

        There's a chance.

        No way. Goes down easy, but not a straight dive.

      I need Vardy Party to bone a brace past WBA to save GW.

        Snap, 40 points with only Vardy left

      Weird how people latch into certain players and not others. Eriksen steadily outscoring anyone and hardly widely owned. Sterling 6 goals and 2 assists playing better than he did with Suarez and he's the same price he was gw1

        Eriksen price may put a few off compared to sterling who is 1.7 cheaper

        *cheaper than he was in GW1
