The Gameweek continues with a tussle that has all the credentials of a fixture that Match of the Day would schedule last as Burnley make the trip to the Hawthorns to face West Brom.

The majority of Fantasy managers look set for an afternoon off, then, treated to 90 minutes with little at stake and a potential scouting mission of the budget market.

Burnley, with just a single league goal and three consecutive clean sheets, will come under the microscope. With bargain buys back-to-front, we’ll be assessing their suitability as their schedule eases over the month ahead.

As for West Brom, they are notoriously a no-go zone for Fantasy managers: Alan Irvine’s “revolution” currently boasts little to interest us, bar an array of low-to-mid price differentials that only the brave would consider. Will today’s encounter change that outlook?

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

    What's the story with Chester? Hull looked so much better defensively with him in the team and now he's dropped?

    😕

      Dawson so over rated. Always was and always has been.

      12 years, 1 month ago

      They've been playing a back four. Davies is the captain, Dawson is the new signing.

      And I can see it staying that way really. They've got two strikers now - Jelavic and Abel H - and bought well in midfielder - Diame, Ben Arfa and Gaston.

      A back four allows them to fit these guys in. Pretty terminal for Chester as an FPL option.

      i guess because Bruce bought one of the most over-rated centre halfs around in Dawson - who can't play 3 at the back- and is obliged to play him!

    12 years, 1 month ago

    Berahino - 160k ownership

    How many of those are actually playing do we reckon? 🙂

    1. Declan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      10%

    One of the most frustrating things in FPL are dead teams in your ML. Somehow they keep managing to score well. One guy in my ML has Berainho from when he scored well.

  8. Pedram
    12 years, 1 month ago

    lol you guys are going to jinx Wisdom.

    1. Debauchy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  9. mr messi
    12 years, 1 month ago

    So is Aguero the best Rooney replacement if he survives the CL match?

    1. Del Griffith
      12 years, 1 month ago

      A fit Studdge is tempting

      1. mr messi
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Mmmmm, maybe

    2. Debauchy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      And the International break , mmm ?

  10. The Machine

    Burnley pleeèeeeeeeeeeease

    1. The Machine

      Scoooooooooore

    2. OPTA FPL

      are you even watching the game?

  11. The Light Knight
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Naismith to Berahino?

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Really?

      1. The Light Knight
        12 years, 1 month ago

        👿

  12. MJ6987
    12 years, 1 month ago

    WBA can have some fun now, a Burnley goal would be no more than a consolation.

    1. Shifty
      12 years, 1 month ago

      shush it!

  13. SW6
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Annoying that Dawson was priced at 4.5. He should have been a typical 4.0 pick at the start of the season.

    1. CABAYE4
      12 years, 1 month ago

      4.0 starters from non-promoted sides are always very rare, we were lucky enough with Wisdom.

      1. money face bandwagon
        12 years, 1 month ago

        yeah already too many 4m starting options..hutton moore duff wisdom

  14. RiflaFC
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Is Rooney protected against price-fall due to red card?

    1. MJ6987
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No it doesn't work like that. Needs more transfers out though so should be oK for a while

    2. HuttonDressedasLahm
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Who knows. Silly system!

    3. Del Griffith
      12 years, 1 month ago

      no

    4. n-doggg
      12 years, 1 month ago

      He'll drop

      1. RiflaFC
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

  15. HuttonDressedasLahm

    Double West Brom defence in Playon

    Not liking this score, they will let in a sloppy goal now 🙁

    1. MJ6987
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No way WBA will keep this CS.

      FPL just doesn't work like that!

  16. Randy_Marsh
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Lol wisdom

  17. Tim Canterbury
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Plenty of time for Burnley to score

    1. Randy_Marsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      That's the worry

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        12 years, 1 month ago

      1. laGan1n1
        12 years, 1 month ago

        running like a Lichsteiner, crossing like a Dani Alves = Wisdom #2

        1. Pablitto
          12 years, 1 month ago

          😉 I see

  19. Somalion
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Bye Bye Heaton.

  20. Would an idiot do that?
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Duff > Berahino

    A bit knee-jerky

    1. Randy_Marsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Berahino is a striker

      1. laGan1n1
