With Saturday’s programme ravaged by the FA Cup Quarter-Finals, there are just two more Premier League clashes to scrutinise this afternoon: Bournemouth play host to a resurgent Swansea City side, while Southampton search for their first win in four when they travel to Stoke.

The Cherries fared well on the attacking front over the last four Gameweeks – tallying six goals – but it’s their reaguard that has really shined: aside from being breached on just four occasions, they conceded the fewest shots inside the box (21) of any team that didn’t face a blank during that timeframe. As for the Swans, they also restricted their opponents to four goals but allowed the second-most shots inside the box (45) and joint-third-most big chances (nine).

Only three teams racked up more goals than Stoke City (seven) over the previous four Gameweeks, reflecting their improvement in the final third. In addition, Mark Hughes’ charges conceded the fewest goals (three) and big chances (three) of any outfit that didn’t miss a fixture over this spell. Shifting our attention to Saints, they ranked in the bottom third for attempts (43) and shots inside the box (23), illustrating their need for an attacking spark.

    Kompany nailed on for 3 bonus?

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah

    2. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Looks as so

    3. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Cool. Atleast something good from that game.

      Didn't captain Aguero, don't get me wrong.

  3. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years

    Should have scored King

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Why doesn't Afobe get these chances?

    2. Hybrid.power

    Daniels playing like a striker. He really is the new Baines

    lost on last page

    what's with Ayew?

    1. Zero
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not much, what's with you?

      1. Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        ok. I will explain my question to you. Why is he not playing and not even on the bench Mr. Zero?

        1. Zero
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Hah. In all truth I'm not sure, we'd expect that he'd be on the bench so I imagine it's either a late injury or something outside of football

    2. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not even on the bench. My guess would be personal reasons or surprise injury

    Who else did Kane(c) ->Kun(c) last mintute

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Me

      I have to say I thought about but I did stop myself

    4. SwissGuinness
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I did...

    5. zizoo10
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      me. literally last minute

    6. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Had armband on Kane about thirty times this gameweek but ended up with Kun. Komps getting 9 points softens the blow a bit.

      Kane and Vahrez might still blank. You never know 🙂

    7. UKG
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      other way round at 11:44 🙂

    8. GinjaWhinja
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I'm more interested in those that made the reverse decision.

    9. Mark-O
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Me and it was very last minute

  17. F_Ivanovic
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Someone in one of my ML only has 3 outfielders + GK playing and one of their transfers was to bring in Defoe!

      1. SamH123
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

    1. La Roja

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

  21. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Messi pen miss

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Should have passed the ball to Suarez 🙂

    2. BENOIT
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No wonder Rondon has a better conversion rate 😉

  22. siweltrebor87
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    If only Targett got the assist, then I'd be laughing.

  23. matiakez
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Just noticed no Cedric, absolute disaster week.

  24. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Forster penalty save from Arnie on my wish list

  25. Bungey89
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    All we need now is a stoke goal to spoil the cs

  26. Optimus.
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

  28. Butland in the Village
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I went Vardy (C) over Kun. I don't like away and early games! Looks good for now.

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Whatever happens other captains cannot be a disaster now

    2. SamH123
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I had Vardy (c) 20 minutes before the deadline but then thought I'd change last minute to Aguero to protect my decent rank

  29. Effe
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Great, got my Hart v Butland bench decision right.

    Unless Butland now saves a penalty or something...
