With the international break over and done with, it’s time to turn our attention to Gameweek 4. In particular, it’s a good opportunity to take a look at two team-mates who are currently carving out their international reputations.

West Ham hero Dimitri Payet delighted the French public with his virtuoso performances in Euro 2016, while Michail Antonio got his first taste of life as an England squad member when Sam Allardyce called him up for the Slovakia match.

Both are likely starters against Watford this weekend and, given West Ham’s obliging schedule to come, have to be firmly on our radar.

Antonio’s price point has us favouring the former Nottingham Forest winger in our Watchlist but Payet’s quality cannot be overlooked.

Have we been hasty to ignore the Frenchman’s brilliance? Let’s look deeper into the numbers.

    KDB:- the forgotten man.

      • 12 Years

      damn

    2. Concrete
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Not advanced enough for his price though with Gundogen back that could change

    3. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      In more teams than Silva, to be fair.

  2. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Play Redmond (ars) or Lamela (stk)?

    1. pratul09
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Ditch both

      1. KUNingas
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        Not now

    Can somebody explain all this hype about holebas? competition for spot and playing in a poor team. I don't understand

    1. myboycharlie
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      More about his fixtures from gw6 onwards

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Watford fans are not sure whether him or Kennedy are going to start

      wingbackiness

    Lamela > Antonio isn't worth -4 is it?

    1. pratul09
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Not worth -4 but Lamela might not even play.

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        If antonio scores, and lamela doesnt play, then clearly maths says yes. it would be worth it. will he score? who knows, maybe Lamela gets a brace in 12 minutes....

      2. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        I have Høji berry itching to play!

    2. myboycharlie
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Not worth a hit

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        Cheers lads

  5. pratul09

    Captain Hazard or Sanchez or Costa?

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Hazard

    2. enrico.palazzo
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      I'm on haz

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        Haz over Sanchez?

        Can't decide...

  6. eish
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    I need help . . . .3rd choice striker for 8mil or less. . .have negredo

    1. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Defoe and Rondon are nailed on lone strikers

      1. Andy_Social
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        As are Llorente, Bony and Tekkers (if you ignore bad Mr. Wickham)

      2. Tiamani Warrior
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        who takes peno's for WBA?

        1. Andy_Social
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 15 hours ago

          you gotta get into the box to win a penalty 😉

        2. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 15 hours ago

          Morrison

    2. Gazpilicueta
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Beneteke and stick with him for like 4-6 weeks

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Bony or Defoe the best options imo

  7. Miro
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Bojan -> Ozil worth a -4 ?

    1. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      If you can't wait until next week, yes.

  8. SlackerD
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Thinking of ditching barkley and rolling with double arsenal midfielders, Cazorla instead, thoughts`?

    Heaton - Foster
    Evans William Collins - Amat Shaw
    Hazard Sanchez Cazorla Antonio - Fletcher
    Ibra - Benteke - Defoe

    1. JoshT
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      i did that this week.... I think it could shoot us up the ranks!

      Now looking at eve fixtures next few weeks though and they look good....

  9. KingOllie
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Is my wc team gtg?

    Cech
    Valencia / Baines / Williams
    Haz(c) / Ozil / Firmino / Puncheon
    Ibra / Kaku / Zasa

    Evans / Amat / hjoj

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Solid

    2. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Zaza's a bit of a punt given we haven't seen him, but otherwise very gtg.

      1. KingOllie
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        Yeh i like to have one punt in my team. Can easily swap him for Bony or Tekkers if one bits form and he doesnt.
        Cheers

  10. OLE BOLEH!
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Collins or Williams?

    Is Collins really not so nailed??

    1. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Ogbana was first choice last season

    2. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Sems nailed at the mo, but for how long? Whereas William's nailed for the season.

  11. Concrete
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Those with Hazard and Sanchez, what's the rest of your midfield looking like?

  12. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    With Champions league midweek the City, Arsenal, Spurs and Leicester line-ups might throw up 1 or 2 unlikely starters today

    1. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      More to the point, some will be rested or subbed early to the dismay of the FPL community. I'm looking at the Arsenal midfield!

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 15 hours ago

        nothing worse when a player you own is withdrawn on 59 minutes

  13. Yome
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Bolasie scored a Hatty against Sunderland last season, just saying...

  14. FAITHNOMORENO
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    is baines still on corners and fk?

    1. Kip
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Nope

  15. Blue Gaffer
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Is a Liv mid essential on a WC?
    If so which one. Considering a 1 week filler in place for a City mid

    1. Yome
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Wait for GW6

    2. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Firmimo or mane best picks probably. I wouldnt go without one.
      No europe, fixtures coming good. Very attacking

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 15 hours ago

      Firmino

  16. Blue Gaffer
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Best sub 6.5 mid?

    1. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Redmond, puncheon, snodgrass, lanzini or pereya

    2. KUNingas
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Wilshere

  17. sarnshawn
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Stones > Davies?
    Or someone else?

  18. MFPL
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    Which option?
    A) Heaton, Capoue and Baines (means double up on EVE defence, playing 4-4-2 every week)
    B)Foster, Puncheon and Evans (rotation between Puncheon and Evans)

    Rest of team:
    **** (Jakupovic)
    Valencia Williams Masuaku **** (Amat)
    Sanchez Hazard Mane Antonio ****
    Ibra Lukaku (Diomande)

    1. Kip
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      The one where you dont play 4-4-2 every week

  19. Kip
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 15 hours ago

    I bought both shaw(5.6) and valencia(5.6) at 5.5

    Would you sell any of them for baines/coleman. And if so, which one?

    1. Concrete
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Shaw to Baines

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Stick with double UTD defence for now

    3. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Double United - they look solid and both look good attack wise. Baines with fixtures and penalties seems high up the list.

  20. OLE BOLEH!
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Moving forward, capoue or puncheon?

    Missed the scoutcast - what's the hype around puncheon again?

  21. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Is Hazard a safer (c) choice than Sánchez?

    Just thinking of Sanchez arriving back late and having CL in midweek whereas Hazard doesn't have that.

    1. Andy_Social
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Yeah, the lack of euro action works for Chelsea

  22. henryleeds
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Morning lads, one final piece to the puzzle:

    A) Foster, Collins, Kone, Snoddy + 1.2ITB
    B) Heaton, Evans, Friend, Antonio + 0ITB

    Any help would be appreciated:)

    1. Tiamani Warrior
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      C) Heaton, Evans, Kone, Snoddy +$ITB for aguero

      1. henryleeds
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 14 hours ago

        Thanks, that makes more sense as it'll mean I'll only have to make 2 transfers to get Aguero in, shame about missing out on antonios fixtures though

  23. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    A Kane blank today and he should be 10.8 before his home game with Sunderland next week

  24. eish
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Linden Gooch nailed on?

    1. Tiamani Warrior
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      don't think so they've got quite a few options in midfield and he's not very experienced

  25. OptimusBlack
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Who To Play ?

    A- Remond

    B- Capoue

    1. Deyanski
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Redmond

  26. Eskimooo
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Ibra / snoddy
    Vs
    Rooney / sterling ?

  27. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    Play Capoue, Redmond or get in Antonio for a 4 point hit?

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 14 hours ago

      Capoue

  28. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    So peeps,

    Antonio in for Redmond (for a 4 point hit)?

    Or I could play Capoue

    Have a feeling Antonio could do quite well.

  29. zaydon
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 14 hours ago

    1. zaydon
