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.

    On WC:

    A) Lukaku & De Roon (Lukaku & Sanchez -> Aguero & Cazorla free transfers)
    B) Sterling & Defoe (Sterling, Sanchez, Defoe -> Cazorla, De Roon, Aguero for -4)

    1. Professor Red
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      A no brainer

  2. Christina.
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    price movements going our way it seems

    Kun -89%
    Alexis 50%
    Firm -86%

    I can do with every 0.1m

    1. Professor Red
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      If firm explodes today thats guna reverse. If sanchez benched that will halt. Only kun in your favour right now

        9 years, 6 months ago

        He will. You watch. He performs when you least expect him to.

        1. Professor Red
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Who Firm?

          1. Whats the Huth
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            I'm hoping against hope that Firm stays quiet one more week.
            I need him to drop once more.

            1. Christina.
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 6 months ago

              i'm greedy...hoping for both pts and drop

              😉

      2. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        ...or if Alexis(50%_ outscores Ozil and rise then we bank the 0.1m profit and get Ozil(+16%)

        Sterling (97.8%) might rise tonight...lots of permutations...need to stay sober tonight...

        1. Professor Red
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          You on a wc?

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            nope.

            1. Professor Red
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 6 months ago

              So how in your favour?

              1. Whats the Huth
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 6 months ago

                He/she's obviously got Sanchez.
                And will WC in the next few weeks. So every 0.1 will help

              2. Christina.
                • 16 Years
                9 years, 6 months ago

                -Kun will be cheaper when i WC
                -Alexis rising faster than Ozil who I want on WC
                -I might buy sterling tonight prior to hise rise & firm drop
                -Firm will be cheaper when I wc

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

      I like

    3. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Very much this
      Sterling due a rise also.

      I've removed Sanchez though. So missed out of Sanchez/Ozil rise. Made my team miles better though getting Cech in

  3. Syazwansteiger
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Heaton or Jakupovic?

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

      Heaton

  4. Flynniesta
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Not SHAW I've got my starting 11 right with the United defender on my bench as 1st sub for the Manchester derby, starting Williams (Sun a) Collins (Wat h) & McAuley (Bou a) ahead of him. Have I got it wrong?

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      We fill find out soon

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

        Do you have him or any other United defender? Are you benching/playing?

        1. Kante Be Bothered
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          I have Shaw and Stones and will be playing both. My other defenders are Walker Love Amat. If i had better options id for sure bench 1 of the Manchester boys

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

            Thought I was making a glaring mistake, obviously not. Think I'll stick & pray.

            1. Kante Be Bothered
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 6 months ago

              That be the best thing to do! I hoping for a 0-0 though haha

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I'm in that same boat. Not sure if I should start Valencia or Evans.

      But attacking player should start I guess

  5. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Why we so sure Holebas is OOP and nailed?

    1. KOLASINA(C)
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Are we?

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      We are.
      He's very attacking. Comes forwards a lot.

      I want him. But going for West Ham defender at this stage. But for sure will get Holebas in once their fixtures picks up

  6. rdamjan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    A. Redmond to Antonio
    B. Lamela to Antonio
    C. Neither

    Main concern is if i do A, I will have 0 ITB for Gray change. If I leave it I can do Gray - Bony/Tekkers/Defoe... But West Ham fixtures are so tasty:S

  7. 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 (Puncheon and Evans rotate)

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

      A friend of mine tried to annoy me with bird puns, but I soon realized that toucan play at that game.

      1. Jude Rooney

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

        My friend tried to annoy me with mahogany puns. It would be great if I had a joke to get back at both our friends at once, wooden tit?

  9. gunner267
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Currently on my WC. Can I get Ozil in this team and still keep Hazard?

    DG, Jakup
    Bainez, Azpi, Monreal, Amat, Love
    Haz, Cazorla, Mirallas, Fer, Sterling
    Ibra, Defoe, Tekkers

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yes just downgrade Azpi and Monreal and upgrade Caz

    2. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Baines to Williams. Azpi to Evans. Cazorla to Ozil.

  13. Lecky Legs FC

    Got Ozil & Costa in my team right now though Payet & Lukaku are tempting me right now.

    1. Jude Rooney
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Go and do something else right now - might look better later

    2. Kante Be Bothered

    3. Goaldigger
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Went Payet over Özil. Coinflip really. I think they will both do well over the coming fixtures.

      1. Lecky Legs FC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        If I get Payet I will have tripe WHU with Masuaku & Antonio in my WC squad will consider thanks.

    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    1.Mane - 0.5 million
    2. Firmino + 0.5 million

    My current team is :
    Heaton
    Baines, Walker, Mcauley
    Ozil, Hazard, Antonio, Firmino
    Benteke, Vardy, Defoe
    Subs : Pickford, Valencia, Amat, Maloney.

    Does it look good or trade Mane in for extra 0.5 for Firmino

  20. Cristi@no R7

    Yay or Nay???

    SV: 100.5 😎

    1. Cristi@no R7
      • 13 Years

      100.8 but no big points

        SV???

        1. Cristi@no R7
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Squad value : 100.8

          1. Jøssy ⭐
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            SV is Selling Value, as opposed to Team Value (TV), once you remove all the 0.1s you'd lose for selling. This is the true value of what you can buy if you rip your team up on a WC

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

            No, selling value

    2. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Same here. And will be 100.7 very soon

      😀

    3. Jøssy ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Just 100.4M here. Not terrible

  27. Jøssy ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Right boys... Nearly locked and loaded...

    Foster (bou)
    Valencia (MCI) - Evans (bou) - Koné (EVE)
    Hazard (swa) - Sánchez (SOU) - Sterling (mun) - Antonio (WAT)
    Lukaku (sun) - Ibrahimović (MCI) - Benteke (mid)

    Pickford (EVE) - Capoue (whm) - Pieters (TOT) - Amat (CHE)

    I would REALLY like to draft Baines in for Pieters (on WC). In fact, Pieters is a placeholder cos I won't keep him since he didn't fall but he likely still will.

    Would you do Sterling > Lamela (knowing I'll likely miss some profit tomorrow) or ignore Baines (and then which 4.5)?

    Appreciate your thoughts guys...

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Sterling to Lamela 😯 madness. Bou & Swa after ManU game.

      I would sell Sanchez for Özil to get Baines

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Kone,Holebas,Evans looks best 4.5 defs to me

        1. Jøssy ⭐
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          I was on Holebas all WC, but I'm led to believe he'll lose his place to Kenedy

      2. Jøssy ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Sanchez out!? Equal madness. But yeah, I don't wanna lose Sterling right now.

    2. Black Panther
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      We have exactly same team apart from Foster, I have Heaton. I'm thinking of Capoue ➡️ Hojberg to afford Kone ➡️ Collins. Or Stering ➡️ Cazorla to afford Kone ➡️ Williams.

      1. Jøssy ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate. Don't fancy the Arsenal double-up with Cazorla, and I'm happy enough with Koné.

        I'm just really keen to get Baines. If I can't then I'll probably just stick, but find a good replacement for Pieters at 4.5M

    3. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • 10 Years

      I'm keeping Sterling on my WC over getting Baines in (going with Collins), if that helps 🙂

      1. Jøssy ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate

  28. somebody
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    is it better to have payet, sanchez, costa for 2 gws and take one hit to get aguero gw6

    or

    sanchez, costa, firmino and getting aguero free

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      The one with Firmino

  29. le flem
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    how's this wc team?

    heaton pickford

    evans amat collins shaw williams

    sanchez capoue barkley antonio hazard

    benteke ibra lukaku

    0itb

    thinking of getting foster instead of heaton by shipping capoue for a .1. should i?

  30. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Get McAuley or Evans?

    1. le flem
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      evans slightly cheaper, more injury prone. i'd still say evans

    2. Jøssy ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Tough one! I got McAuley before his last rise on WC, and hoped for teh double-rise, and since I haven't I've dropped him for Evans. Just need every 0.1

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Exact same Jossy, got McAuley on WC, hopeing for doublerise, and then ditched him for Evans 😛

        1. Jøssy ⭐
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Good man!

          What do you think of these two defences? Not allowed Everon or United:

          A) Stones - Masuaku - van Aanholt - Evans - Amat
          B) Stones - Walker - Koné - Evans - Amat
          C) Monreal - 4.5 - Koné - Evans - Amat

          C, I'm undecided who another decent 4.5 could be.
