Gameweek 4 comes to its conclusion this evening as Hull play host to West Ham at the KC. It’s one of those occasions where a goalless draw may best serve Fantasy managers – neither team has a midfielder or attacker with over 3% ownership in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game, a clear sign of our lack of faith in their respective attacks.

The team news is in and sees Steve Bruce make two changes from the side that lost to Villa last time around. New boys Mo Diame and Abel Hernandez both come into the starting XI at the expense of Tom Ince and Paul McShane, while fellow deadline-day signings Hatem Ben Arfa and Gaston Ramirez are afforded a place on the bench. James Chester is also amongst the subs as the Tigers boss opts for a four-man backline.

Sam Allardyce makes a trio of alterations to his first-team. Guy Demel comes in for Joey O’Brien at right-back, while summer signings Diafra Sakho and Enner Valencia get the nod as Carlton Cole and Ricardo vaz Te drop to the bench. Carl Jenkinson recovers from injury to be named amongst the subs along with new boys Alex Song and Morgan Amalfitano.

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

    Will CHESTER come on for 10mins?

    1. BantamPhil
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Not at 1-1

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years

      Doubt it if a draw, prob will if they're leading and want to protect it,

    3. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He won't unless someone gets injured.

      If they take the lead again maybe

    Best Defender for around 5.4 other than Clyne/Bertrand?

    1. Kvelertak
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Rafael is tempting, but there is a rotation risk. He's miles ahead of Valencia in quality imo.

    2. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Rafael?

    3. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Chester

  3. Robe Wan

    Anyone keen to help me out?

    I'm bereft of ideas. Do I ship Mata? Or Colocinni? Or save?

    Mannone

    Cahill Colocinni Wisdom (Hutton Moore)

    Sterling siggy Ramsey Mata (albrighton)

    Aguero Costa adebayor

      Neil mellow hit a bullet he hasn't been great to be honest.

        Mellor*

  5. Syd.
    • 16 Years

    Hull need to get Chester on

  6. theloveburglar

    big steve bruce ripped the arse clean outta that transfer window too many players brought in..

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      How do work that one out?

  7. Sid07
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    What do u think about dzeko stick or twist to pelle. My only concern is i think 3 games in a week is too much for aguero and dzeko might start against chelsea

    1. tw
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      no way aguero starts on the bench vs chelsea imo*

      *unless he gets injured

  8. fatherted
    • 14 Years

    Is Blackett at risk with Shaw looking like being ready soon??

  9. waitinginthelonggrass
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Soooo took a punt by bringing in Falcao in for Rooney, worked very well obviously.

    0 in the bank. Should I bite the bullet and transfer back in Rooney?

    1. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Nope, I think Falcao will start this week.

      1. tw
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        with mata dropping out?

        1. theloveburglar
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          rvp

      2. waitinginthelonggrass
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        It's hard to know. If he does all will be fine as when he came on Rooney dropped deep but if he doesn't i will be majorly piss*d off!

        1. Robe Wan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          How do you know it will be fine? Been injured and an ACL too. Probably not sharp and not PL experience

          1. waitinginthelonggrass
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            I have the faith.

      3. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Rooney will play 90 tho.

        1. waitinginthelonggrass
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          He is on pens aswell.

    2. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No

    3. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yep. He is on form and being fed by Galacticos.

    4. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      nah. Falcao will surely start from now on

    5. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yes. I took out Costa and brought him back in.

      Sometimes you got to admit you fcucked up

    6. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You'll be asking a similar question when Rooney blanks and Falcao gets a brace.

      1. waitinginthelonggrass
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Sure you will get the joy of replying to me again then!

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          I hope not. I've got Rooney.

  10. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Hernandez is looking really good.

  11. Wings Fan
    • 12 Years

    The guy in black and white got sent off for the push on yellow nr 5...

    Notice how it's the yellow teams Gk who pushes him.

    Yellow nr 5 is a chap from my work who plays for tividale

    Found it amusing.

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Only if you're watching in black and white though.

      * I haven't watched this video. I'm guessing it's about snooker,

  14. Optimus.
    • 14 Years

    Chester on for Quinn

    1. The Bandit

      Keep up ^^ 😉

        I'm sure I pipped you!

  15. Captain Shirokov

    Completely forgot there was even a match on tonight...

    1. tw
      • 14 Years

      same here

    2. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      It's been a good game bar the first 30 minutes

    3. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Crap fixture but really good goals so far

  16. tw
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    is dzeko or terry a bigger priority to sell?

    1. A.T
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Dzeko

      1. tw
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        cheers!

        nothing in the bank so thinking maybe pelle?

        1. A.T
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          I've gone welbeck myself. Don't really rate Pelle yet. Obviously worth a punt though.

          1. tw
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            he was the other one I was considering. how'd he look this weekend?

            1. A.T
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              I've only watched highlights but he did ok. Obviously a tough game. He could've scored, clipped the post after chipping Hart. Pelle's got the fixts and apparently the stats to back it up but watching them play there's no comparison IMO.

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Forwards take priority for me.

    3. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Terry this week.....just.

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Mor upside to switching attacker tho.

      2. tw
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        why's that? and who would you suggest bringing in for him?

        I could start naylor pva and ferdinand and bench terry if I kept him

    4. Nova
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I'd say Terry

      1. tw
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        cheers! best bet to replace him? was thinking bertrand but not sure if there's a better option

        1. Nova
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          I would go Baines but if you don't have any money then Bertrand/Clyne are good options.

  17. melvinmbabazi
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Hazard -> ADM?

    Yes or No

    1. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I wouldn't.

    2. tw
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      maybe
      or haz > cesc?

    3. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No

    4. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No

  18. rickardinho
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Which is worse:

    A) Barcelona to Stoke (Bojan)
    B) Barcelona to west ham (song)

    Was Brady the first sub to come on for Hull?

  20. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers

    Song wagon imminent.

  21. Obi Wan Elokobi
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Song joining West Ham is a April fools 6 months early, right?

  22. Journeyguy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    If Chester doesn't come on then that means I have 3 points from 5 players including my Captain.
    Horrible.....

    🙁

  23. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Song on for Zarate, suggests he'd be playing as the furthest forward midfielder... in the hole maybe?
