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.

    Will take that Lukaku goal, and rightly so, in place of a Baines stolen clean sheet. Lee Mason continues to prove himself as one of the most horrific referees in the Prem.

      still fuming over loss of cleanie it's a clear foul my god what what he doing there..

      1. Too Mane Men
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Lee Mason isn't cut out to referee in the top league. Never has been.

    2. TheSteel

      Stolen cleansheet?

      1. FPLEL
        10 years, 1 month ago

        It was a foul, not a goal.

    3. The Tinkerman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I have Bolasie and Baines. Not the greatest of games...

      1. phace

        I feel for you homie, have a candle for your loss:

      Negredo's head hit Stekelenburg's hand and jarred the ball loose.

      Keeper needs to be stronger in those situations. Get in the gym and strengthen those forearms!

    the only guy who knows if there was a touch on the planet aint gonna say he didnt touch it. just getting his confidence back so he is hardly going to say i fecked up from a yard out in an open net

    1. Daniyal
      10 years, 1 month ago

      his reaction sure looked like it was his goal

    What's the average?

    1. Wouter
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not good and not bad.

      1. Xuey
        10 years, 1 month ago

        That's helpful

        1. Wouter
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Anytime bro

  4. Daniyal
    10 years, 1 month ago

    a Barkley goal is all i ask

  5. Too Mane Men
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I'm going to take the high ground here and say that its not possible to determine whether Lukaku touched it or not from the footage we have. If this this is the case then he should keep the goal.

    I'm a Bolasie owner who transferred Friend > Baines this week.

    Loving life.

    Lukaku + Snodgrass

    Or

    Diomande + KDB

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Diomande is a useless donkey

      A easily

    2. Oliver Tockman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      a

    3. Pierce34
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely Lukaku and Snodgrass

    4. devils advocate
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not now.

      David Nugent just came on.

    5. ChristoBisto
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers. Dunno what Nugent has got to do with it!

      1. Les Bleus
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Also, I never understood when people say money is no issue. We don't have unlimited funds.

        1. Bellerinmondo
          10 years, 1 month ago

          money is always an issue

        2. FPLEL
          10 years, 1 month ago

          I think it's to stop commenters pointing out the price difference.

      2. Total Foot 5
        10 years, 1 month ago

        cheers, u reckon more threats also via headers right, more involved...

        would u go Bolasie over lallana if you dont have Liverpool ?

    2. Wouter
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Anyone that says Mirallas had a snort too many.

  9. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    10 years, 1 month ago

    A) Ibra Cazorla Lallana (Carrick as a 5th mid)

    B) Deeney Sanchez Firmino (Fletcher 5th mid)

  10. Bellerinmondo
    10 years, 1 month ago

    just realised Gana is Gueye, thought Everton had signed someone else

    1. SamH123
      10 years, 1 month ago

    2. devils advocate
      10 years, 1 month ago

  13. Codetto

  14. HellasLEAF
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed:

    boiling down to one of..

    Kun - Kaku - Costa + funds for mid

    Kun - Kaku - Ibrah

    1. ChristoBisto
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I'm thinking of a out of those

  15. Jay Jay Okocha
    10 years, 1 month ago

    A) Hazard + Sterling
    B) Sanchez + Antonio

    1. Kane Train
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B easy

  16. TeddiPonza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    With my 2 FT my team next week will be:

    Foster
    Shaw Stones Evans (Amat Friend)
    Hazard Alexis Snodgrass Capoue Redmond (one of Snod, Cap and Red will be benched)
    Gray Zlatan Aguero

    Not having Lukaku is killing me!

    Use WC now or be patient and stick with it?.

  17. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku waving to the bench?

    1. SW6
      10 years, 1 month ago

      His pants are on fire

  18. Les Bleus
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku is clearly limping and looking very uncomfortable.

    1. Wouter
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Karma is a bitch.

  19. Jamie_GAWA
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Costa > Lukaku for a -4?

    Would probably doing this in a few weeks anyway once Costa gets 5 YC.

  21. Greenbackbøøg…
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku injury would make switch to Aguero very easy

  22. devils advocate
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I'd pay good money for someone to hack an EVE player in the box right now.

  23. Wouter
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I'd pay someone good money to hack FPL right now.

    1. devils advocate
      10 years, 1 month ago

      How much?

      1. Wouter
        10 years, 1 month ago

        A tenner and a kiss

  24. Dr Dream
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Gieye is a shockingly good player of his type. Impressed.

    1. devils advocate
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Then respect him enough to spell his name right!!! 😉

    2. Krul Runnings
      10 years, 1 month ago

      We (Villa) messed up by having a release clause in his contract for less than we bought him for.

      Says it all really!

    3. devils advocate
      10 years, 1 month ago

      F***k yeah!

      1. devils advocate
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Lol, reply fail.

        That was meant for Wouter above.

  25. rdamjan
    10 years, 1 month ago

    That`s it. Lukaku staying in my team.

    Gray --> Aguero for FT
    Hazard --> under 7,7 (maybe Cazorla) I have also Barkley, Lamela, Antonio and Capoue

    This is for 2 FT. I have also WC. And the next week Barkley out. Good plan?

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      That is a shocking midfield apart from Antonio.

      1. rdamjan
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Its worked until now. Maybe its time for WC?

    2. MrInbetween
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Good plan.

  29. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

  30. Les Bleus
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku going off.
