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.

    I think it will be given to Bolasie. There's no reason it shouldn't.

      This. And I have Lukaku

        I agree. Shame he couldn't get a proper touch on it.......

    2. Belsunz
      • 12 Years

      Jup. Rom didn't touch the ball.

  2. Dacra

    Bah, sterling and Sanchez lost bonus?

  3. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Should FFS add a new category to the tables?....."Goals and assists without actually touching it"

    Lucky Lukaku would have topped it for three years in a row.

    So I am robbed for Williams assist and Bolasie's assist and goal.

      Was never a Williams assist.

        It was a few seasons ago.

    Lukaku just doing what Ighalo did last season, claiming a goal when he wants 🙂

        Indeed, me neither

  11. thunder_mike
    • 13 Years

    Will take that Lukaku goal, makes up for losing the Williams CS

  12. Cocky Spaniel Alves

    Sorry, bottomed.

    Seeing as it's half time and they can't score for a short while i'm hoping to get some comments about these proposed wc teams.

    A)
    Foster
    Valencia Williams Holebas
    SANCHEZ Sterling Antonio FIRMINO
    Kun Lukaku DEENEY

    Jaku FLETCHER Amat Kingsley

    B)
    Foster
    Valencia Williams Holebas
    CAZORLA Sterling Antonio LALLANA
    Kun Lukaku IBRA

    Jaku CARRICK Amat Kingsley

    Do you guys think either one is any good?

  13. World XI

    Officially confirmed as Lukaku goal

    The goal is given to Lukaku - a huge decision for his 16% ownership and the 6% who captained him #FPL

  14. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Don't you idiots know this is FPL precedent. If Lukaku so much as breathes on the ball before it goes in the net it counts as a touch.

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Best you leave

      You would, though, wouldn't you?

  17. stevie

    My aguero buy back plan seems to have switched to a drop hazard and get costa and sterling plan, mainly so i can keep sanchez.... anyone having similar thoughts?

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Aguero is a must. Needs to be the first move you make this week.

  18. Gunners for Lyfe
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    I'd be pissed if I had Bolasie

    Negredo and Lukaku claiming it like they scored ffs

    1. John t penguin
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I have Lukaku and negredo

  19. Le _ Professeur
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Would you do this ?

    Monreal - Hazard - Zaza ► Holebas - Antonio - Aguero

  20. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years

    NO LUKAKU GOAL

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years

  21. The Hound
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    No lukaku, and £2 on bolasie to score outside the box at 25\1. Here's hoping......

  22. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Fpl wil want to satisfy lukaku owners as more will own him compared to Bolasie

    Lukaku goal will stand imo

  23. Skitelord
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku did touch it, the close up replay showed that quite clearly, I thought? Maybe I'm wrong.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Watching bt, they haven't really showed a good slow mo angle tbh

      Was Lukaku promoted heavily in the FPL videos this week? If so...goal stands. 😉

      Looks like Benteke out and another 4.5 mid is coming in for Aguero (cue Benteke brace tomorrow)

      FPL can be such a cruel game at times... Brought in Nolito this week and gets red carded. Atleast Coleman and Lukaku double up makes me feel better. Anyhow, Nolito to who? I have 1.7 itb should I get KDB or Raheem?

    8. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I will stop playing FPL if they give it to Lukaku.

          Now I've got two reasons for the goal to be awarded to lukaku. Just kidding!
