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.

  1. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    KDB:- the forgotten man.

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      damn

    2. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

    3. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      In more teams than Silva, to be fair.

  2. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Play Redmond (ars) or Lamela (stk)?

    1. pratul09
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ditch both

      1. KUNingas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Not now

  3. UptheBlues
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    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
      9 years, 6 months ago

      More about his fixtures from gw6 onwards

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

    3. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      wingbackiness

  4. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

    1. pratul09
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Not worth -4 but Lamela might not even play.

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months 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
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I have Høji berry itching to play!

    2. myboycharlie
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Not worth a hit

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers lads

  5. pratul09
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Captain Hazard or Sanchez or Costa?

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Hazard

    2. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I'm on haz

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Haz over Sanchez?

        Can't decide...

  6. eish
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Defoe and Rondon are nailed on lone strikers

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

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

      2. Tiamani Warrior
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        who takes peno's for WBA?

        1. Andy_Social
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          you gotta get into the box to win a penalty 😉

        2. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Morrison

    2. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Beneteke and stick with him for like 4-6 weeks

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Bony or Defoe the best options imo

  7. Miro
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Bojan -> Ozil worth a -4 ?

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

  8. SlackerD
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months 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
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Solid

    2. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

      1. KingOllie
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months 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
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Collins or Williams?

    Is Collins really not so nailed??

    1. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ogbana was first choice last season

    2. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

  11. Concrete
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

  12. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months 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
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

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

  13. Yome
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

  14. FAITHNOMORENO
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    is baines still on corners and fk?

    1. Kip
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nope

  15. Blue Gaffer
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wait for GW6

    2. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months 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
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Firmino

  16. Blue Gaffer
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Best sub 6.5 mid?

    1. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Redmond, puncheon, snodgrass, lanzini or pereya

    2. KUNingas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wilshere

  17. sarnshawn
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Stones > Davies?
    Or someone else?

  18. MFPL
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

  19. Kip
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Shaw to Baines

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Stick with double UTD defence for now

    3. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months 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
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Moving forward, capoue or puncheon?

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

  21. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah, the lack of euro action works for Chelsea

  22. henryleeds
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

      1. henryleeds
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months 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
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

  24. eish
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Linden Gooch nailed on?

    1. Tiamani Warrior
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

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

  25. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Who To Play ?

    A- Remond

    B- Capoue

    1. Deyanski
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Redmond

  26. Eskimooo
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Ibra / snoddy
    Vs
    Rooney / sterling ?

  27. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

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

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Capoue

  28. Bobadoba
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months 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
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Is ghat true that coutinho will no start this game?

    1. zaydon
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      That*

  30. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago
