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.

    Lol f off Barkley. Glad I missed that boat

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Everton defence the only part of their team worth picking

  2. Belsunz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Bloody typical, but totally understandable: Barkley was awful all first half...

  3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Barkley to Antonio

    Thanks Ross 🙂

    I was wondering who to take out

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Am going to do the same move

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Blessing in disguise probably

        1. Kante Be Bothered
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Hopefully! I just hope that Antonio doesn't play in defense

    2. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Actually relieved with that transfer! Such an easy move

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Every cloud and all that.

    4. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I liked Antonio's low ownership 🙁

  4. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku is constantly second to the ball...

  5. Forever In Our Shadow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Koeman saw the game we did. Barkley rubbish and off. Good man.

  6. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Tough luck Barkely owners

  7. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Barkley LOLOL

  8. Back on the horse
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    It's hard to pick the players that score the most points

  9. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Should've sold him to Man City when they were offering mad money for him

  10. MarvelouSuccess
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Rate my CL team

    Oblak

    Umtiti Felipe Fabinho

    Modric Rakitic Sterling Alonso

    Ronaldo Aubameyang Lewandowski

    Livakovic L. Hernandez Glik Mor

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Umtiti a bit rotations risk, there are better picks than Modric or Rakitic

  11. Park the bus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Taking some comfort at Barkely being subbed only to remember you sold Deulofeu for -4 and know he will now score a brace

  12. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku's runs are the most predictable runs in football

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Thats his problem right now. Predictable.

    2. Jamie_GAWA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      His runs are more predictable than Rainers posts being stupid

      Jk 😉

  13. FPLHaggis

  16. Les Bleus

    Bolasie looking very dangerous.

  17. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Why was Barkley subbed?

    1. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Had a bad game

    2. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He looked like a bag of milk out there

  18. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Am I right in thinking Mirallas is on FKs now that Barkley is gone off?

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

    Pickford having a stormer....

    1. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      More points on the bench! 😀

  20. La vida FPL
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Who's more of a troll... Barkley or Lukaku?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      No difference.

    2. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      LUKAKU!!!!!

  21. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Pickford you are really cruising for a knuckle sandwich.

    • Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I was on Barkley for ages on my wildcard, then switched to Antonio last minute. At least I got one thing right...

    • Bruno Bruno!!
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      my decision to bring in antonio over barkley for this gw is now vindicated.

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Same. Good job i did too.

        1. Bruno Bruno!!
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          just an everton clean sheet to round of a decent GW.

      2. Keep Calm and Play On
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        You mean it wasn't with 2 goals??

    • Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Wow

      That turn of pace from Lukaku

    • Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Instead of the captains poll they need to run a Troll Poll. I'm not sure who's the biggest troll, Trollkaku, Barkley or Wenger who I'm convinced waits until 11:30am every Saturday to see my team and then drop any Arsenal players I have. Mark my words the admission will come years from now in a biography.

    • PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku has been pocketed

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Kone showing everton what they are missing.

    • BadgersBoys
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Kone bossing Trollaku.

    • A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Shocked by that Barkley substitution!

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Well he was crap the entire first half

      2. BadgersBoys
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        He's been shocking, not the only one though. Still shocked he was take off at half time though.

      3. Jamie_GAWA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Where is Mr Hindseight when you need him to explain

      4. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Not really. Koeman a hard man to please. You wait until hos presser afterwards. He will tell it how it is. Barkely poor.

    • Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Only s Sunderland win of 1-0 will make my GW decent

      1. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        i need a everton cleansheet

    • The Bandit
      • 15 Years

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
