Gameweek 4 comes to its conclusion this evening as Sunderland welcome Everton to the Stadium of Light.

Both sides roll up in contrasting form – whilst the Black Cats have yet to win, their visitors are unbeaten so far under new manager Ronald Koeman.

Two goals in the first three means Jermain Defoe is the man most likely to help David Moyes get one over his former club.

At the other end of the pitch, Patrick van Aanholt netted in his previous home appearance and Jordan Pickford’s owners are boosted by another start for the 4.0-price keeper.

For the Toffees, Ross Barkley is by far the most popular FPL pick, sitting in over 18% of squads.

With Koeman’s side set for an excellent run of fixtures, this evening’s match allows us the opportunity to also scout the likes of Leighton Baines, Romelu Lukaku and potentially even Kevin Mirallas, who starts for the fourth straight fixture under the Dutchman.

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

    Costa captain could be worse. Williams clean sheet. But Barkley to Antonio is looking like a move I'll be making

      Costa captain could be worse 😆

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years

  5. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    .1 short of Negredo and Hazard to Aguero and Snodgrass!

    Why always with the .1's?!!

    Need that Aguero drop badly before Negredo does

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Lukaku may well save you

    18. 3 A
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      59 with Baines but dont have Lukaku. I should dare to minus point early to get him after he got a brace before.

      A lesson learned.

    19. Saïss Doesn't Mat…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      61 sanchez (c) my captain choices have been really letting me down this season

  8. BenjaniMwaruwari
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Do we reckon Pickford will stay in goal after that team performance?
    You can surely not blame him for any of the goals conceded...

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Nope

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, I thought he was good.

    3. Swanny18
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Probably, made a few good saves and wasn't really to fault for any of the goals

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    With a decent evening from Baines & Lukaku it's looking like 72 for the week, is that above average? Doesn't seem great...

    1. Slam
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Ok man, cut it out now.
      You are like a broken record

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        So above then, ye?

    2. Bubz

      73 here 😎

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Decent 😉

    3. Hect.OR 98th

      Yawn

  10. Only God forgives

    What day is the scoutcast this week?

  11. Syd.

    25 points tonight

    Happy with that 😆

    1. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Played sir 🙂

      1. glufs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        how was it played, though?

  12. Budweiser
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Bottomed..

    So Barkley to Bolasie sound about right? Gives me a bit of cash to play around with too..

    I already have Antonio..

  13. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Wow, did Lukaku get a hat trick?

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      In 11 minutes. He was rubbish for the other 77 minutes though. Avoid.

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Wow.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No Barkley was it not?

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I missed the match, just turned it on.

        1. Niemi
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Hit the bar and had a couple of good chances as well. Sunderland were pretty poor at the back 2nd half.

  14. Hect.OR 98th
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Thrilled with Lukaku.

    Concerned about he wisdom of Pickford and Kone in my squad. Benched this week but Sunderland look woeful.

  15. Oliver Tockman
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I'm happy for Lukaku (c) but it won't be a dismal Sunderland defense every week; he has to be more clinical with all those missed chances.

  16. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    The Baines + Williams double up wouldnt be a bad idea

  17. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Mark having the last laugh.

  18. Kip
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How was Coleman's performance today? Did he look like he can turn into goalman again?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Had one shot that Lukaku nearly turned in.

      Neither Baines nor Coleman did much overlapping though.

      1. Kip
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Allright, thx for the scout report 🙂

  19. brianutd-why always we? 20
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Ville Ronka has Lukaku surprise surprise

  20. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    WC team... From. GW6

    Foster / Jaku

    Valencia / Stones / Williams / Amat / Friend

    Hazard / Firmno / Cazorla / Antonio / Capoue

    Aguero / Lukaku / Benteke

    Thoughts?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Need OOP PVA

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Disagree

    2. glufs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Only worry is Ibra who everyone has

  21. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Everton fans chanting "sacked in the morning".

    Poor davie

  22. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So not only does lukaku score a hattie, my newly transferred in pva starts limping. Just great...

  23. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I have no route to getting Lukaku without ditching Kun or Ibra, might damage me the next few weeks, but not worried in the long term.

    62 points this week without him, so can't complain. My first time deliberately playing a 442 has gone very nicely.

  24. guah
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone know the average GW score after the Lukaku show?

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      FFF have it down as 42. Top 1K average 39.

      1. guah
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers! I was paranoid about Lukaku's haul but I'm safe 🙂

  25. BT31 - WE ARE ALL TINKERMEN…
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Grazie to whoever posted about Sanchez unlikely to start!

    Saturday morning did Sanchez/Bony > Ozil/Lukaku on WC.

  26. Sponge-worthy
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Lukaku should've scored 6 today.

  27. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Pooh, Bolasie with an assist? Nice.

  28. Totally !rre!evant
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So game week 4 is over. Rather than an overall points total, how about an overall bench points total?

    Currently sitting with 68 across the 4 weeks. Surely some big scores out there

    1. Saïss Doesn't Mat…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm preeeety sure Capoue is responsible for almost half of them, no?

  29. Bleach †
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Have Lukaku, but captaining Hazard still leaves me salty 🙁

  30. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Still a bad week for me

    Lukaku has saved it from being really really bad though 😀

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Same. 32 after a -4 hit. Lukaku nearly half my total...I will take it. Great way to end literally, the worst personal gw ever. Man o man.
