Saturday’s events come to a close at Goodison Park with Ronald Koeman’s upwardly mobile Everton side hosting Middlesbrough.

Frankly, this match is all about Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian exploded a dramatic 11-minute hat-trick just six days ago at Sunderland and heads into the tea-time encounter backed by almost 250,000 new owners, with 6% handing him the captaincy.

Koeman’s side will be bidding for a fourth straight victory and a third consecutive clean sheet.

Middlesbrough’s task looks tough, then, having suffered a home reverse in Gameweek 4 at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Alvaro Negredo goes into the contest desperate for a goal having blanked in his last three. Having soared early on as a Fantasy Premier League transfer target, he’s been hemorrhaging owners for the past three Gameweeks, losing 164,000 heading into Friday’s deadline.

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

    Bolasie, Chadli or Snoddy?

      Going for Snodgrass because he's nailed unlike Bolasie, and has decent fixtures for the next 10 weeks or so

        Thanks! Leaning towards him myself.

        Bolasie is a million pound new signing who has looked good in a team with no Europe. He's as nailed as Snodgrass.

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

          30 million*

      Chadi by miles.

      1. MY DJ NAME IS PIMP CURRY

        9 years, 5 months ago

        Good next two fixtures, but do you trust a West Brom attacker to deliver points?

      Bolasie. Easily. Chadli scored from spot. And is in.a.west from team which means away they'll sit everyone behind ball for a nil nil. Shoddy after man it's and chelsea next two weeks.

    How does this team look?

    Foster Heaton
    Shaw Stones Baines Amat Daniels
    Sterling Antonio Walcott Snodgrass Capoue
    Aguero Ibra Benteke

    1. ryacoo

      Looks solid, aside from the lack of Lukaku imo

    Who is more likely to keep their place:

    Kingsley or Amat

    1. MY DJ NAME IS PIMP CURRY
      • 15 Years

      Amat

  4. st4rt__
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts?

    Lloris
    Williams - Holabas - Pieters - Monreal - Amat
    KDB - Antonio - Firmino - £6.6m - De Roon.
    Benteke - Aguero - Lukaku.

    ???

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years

      KDB > Alexis could be an option GW7.

  6. SAY SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT

    1. hawkeyorigin
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez and Lallana hands down

  7. Back on the horse
    • 15 Years

    You guys on WC keeping Stones?

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

      Who's got the stones for Stone?

  8. Meme2011

    A) sterling
    B) coutinho
    C) firmino
    D) Alli

    Who to pick?

    Sterling is the obvious choice but have to play Spurs and Everton and Southampton. Liverpool have by far the best far the best fixtures.
    Alli would be a punt.

    Sell me on someone? It's a toss of a coin currently??

    What could i do with this lot?

    Heaton - (Jakupovic)
    Stones - Valencia - Friend (Pieters - Smith)
    Hazard - Mahrez - Firmino - Redmond - (Capoue)
    Vardy - Lukaku - Ineanacho

    I have 2FT and 3.7 mill in the bank

    Foster/Jaku
    Baines/Valencia/Masuaku/McCauley/Amat
    Hazard/Ozil/Mane/Antonio/Capoue
    Lukaku/Costa/Benteke

    2FT 0.6m

  14. MOZIL
    • 9 Years

    Thoughts??
    De Gea
    Walker Koscielny Stones Shaw
    Mane Antonio Cazorla Hazard
    Aguero Lukaku
    Feel like Stones should go for a FT?
    Any changes you would make?
