Burnley and Watford go head-to-head at Turf Moor this evening in the final fixture of Gameweek 6.

For many Fantasy managers, this match will be the first time Etienne Capoue has been afforded a place in their starting XIs after netting four times in the opening five.

Now up to 5.1 in Fantasy Premier League and sitting in 40% of sides, Capoue heads a host of Hornets options looking to catch the eye as the fixtures turn kind for Walter Mazzarri’s men.

The likes of Roberto Pereyra – with attacking points in all three appearances – Odion Ighalo, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas will also be closely monitored as the fixtures now fall in Watford’s favour.

The hosts are without the suspended Andre Gray for the next four, with Sean Dyche relying on Steven Defour and Sam Vokes – the only other Burnley players to score this season – to breach Mazzarri’s rearguard.

Tom Heaton has earned at least one save point in four of his first five and looks set to be kept busy as the visitors attempt to build on the back of successive wins over West Ham and Man United.

    Is Walcott nailed for next GW? 🙂

    1. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Should be.

  6. Del Monte

    Half way to my Burnley CS.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Won't happen

  7. The Bandit

    9 years, 9 months ago

    All my expected Holebas points have been abducted 😀

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I brought him in but for next GW. Yes he has 4 YC but he will eventually get to 5 and we have a bench. Attacking cheap player is what it is all about.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Not at all worried about a cheap def getting a one match ban

      2. I Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        There's no way you would've brought him in on 4 yellows.

        1. Worzel Gummidge
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Yes I would have. As simple as that really but thanks for your opinion on my thoughts. Interesting read.

          1. I Member
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Yeah I don't believe you. Just trying to justify your early transfer.

            1. Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Luckily for you I dont give a toss what a random on the internet thinks. Especially you.

              1. Cok3y5murf
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 9 months ago

                Yeah you do.

                9 years, 9 months ago

                I look forward to us celebrating a Holebas goal at the weekend and putting this all behind us.

      3. Zinedine Kilbane
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        cant deny 4 yc's takes away the appeal. Majority have brought him in for the fixtures with full intention of playing him in the next 5 games. missing 1 of them is a blow- especially with so many "nailed on" defenders not starting

    2. WDT
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Claim It was Cholevas' fault and nothing to do with Holebas. Demand the yellow be rescinded.

  8. Carlton P
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Has holebas been that bad? Set pieces? They pulled a corner back to him for a volley before right?

    1. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      He's on 4 YCs

      1. daveoafc77
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        This is the main reason not to transfer him in. i benched him this week will probably play him next

    2. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      just normal extreme, exaggerated, knee jerky opinion. He was the best since sliced bread on page 2, now he's the worst option in FPL history. The truth is somewhere inbetween!

  9. Acquafresca
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Jeff Hendrick essential

  10. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Heaton - best keeper in the league

    1. Rich_20
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      De Gea most over rated...there I said it.

  11. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Is it too late to lol at Holebas owners.

    1. Pedram
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      dial up

    2. Arceus
      • 9 Years

      lol @ late lolers on lolebas

  12. denial
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I suppose the trick is going to be when to get rid of Capoue to bank the cash made.

      Last Friday

      1. RoysCallerAnne

        Same

        1. GREENDREAMS11
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Helped fund Son 🙂

          1. RoysCallerAnne
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years

            Nice job 🙂

            1. GREENDREAMS11
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Cheers, I heard people saying Capoues output wasn't sustainable and compared the 2 against each other, Son was miles ahead so it made sense.

      2. BbBb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        He's going to rise again tonight. The trick is to keep him on your bench as fifth mid 😉

      3. Jam0sh

        Last Friday night dydydydyy

    2. Goal Digger2016
      • 9 Years

      Yes.... And find the extra cash for Iwobi

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

      Yeah. He can now fund a Sanchez transfer straight up

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Holebas was a poor pick,lets be honest

    Holebas to Burnley defender I think is my next move

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 9 months ago

      LOL

    2. davies
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Lol before this game he was the best thing since sliced fullbacks

      1. GREENDREAMS11
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        lol

    3. JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I'm tempted by Robertson

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

        Wish I'd got Robertson instead of Kone this week

    4. sillyhilly69
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Troll extraordinaire.

    5. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      It was based on his attacking stats. Good to see you've written him of after half a game of football

    6. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Jerk of the knee

      1. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 9 months ago

        First word would have been fine.

  14. sillyhilly69
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Apparently according to the header image, Dustin Hoffman manages Watford?

    1. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      😆

    2. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Superimposed over Alec Baldwin's head.

  15. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Has Capoue had his one shot yet?

    1. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Nope, will score 2nd half 😉

      1. Bellerinmondo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        as an owner I'll only get worried when he has his one shot and it doesn't go in

    2. Arceus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Saving it for the equaliser

  16. Mr. Blonde
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I've made a huge mistake...!

  17. Costa's Counsellor
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Friend, Holebas... who is the next crap pick?

    1. Arceus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Luiz

      1. Costa's Counsellor
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Far too obvious.

    2. GENERATION X

      smith

  18. TorresMagic™

    1. TheSteel

      So my 0 isnt doing too badly then.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights

        Autosubs will change it a bit.

    2. BbBb
      • 11 Years

      Thanks, I'll bag my Capoue 2 pointer and finish the week on 67

  19. zotter
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Who to bench from

    A. Capoue. Sterling. Firmino. Bolasie. Alexis. Rashford. Costa. Aguero

    B. Vert. Holebas. Coleman. Lovren

    Thinking Capoue and vertonghwn

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Aguero, Coleman

    2. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      are you watching the game? it may help

      1. zotter
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Yes. Hence switched from sterling to Capoue.

  20. WDT

    Lolebas

    1. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years

      original

      1. Rich_20
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Holeinass

  21. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I got rid of Deeney at 11.29 on sat so he'll definately score.

  22. dingdong12
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    holebas to smith a good move this week?

    1. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      nope

    2. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      No.

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

      Don't waste time on defenders. They are mostly 1 or 2 pters

  23. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Holebas is no PVA

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      PVA is no PVA lately annoyingly as I've had him in my team

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        his hearts not in it

  24. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years

    hope it stays as is for me. heaton 6 and capoue 2 has already been used for two hits. casual spiked my drink this season

  25. Jam0sh
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Capoue -> Brunt?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Tempted by this to free some funds. Capoue ain't no mahrez !!

      1. gwitbrock
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        What are you lot smoking?

    2. Rich_20
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Isnt Brunt a defender?

    3. *sigh*
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Brunt is a defender this season

  26. Jay_
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I don't even like Holebas' face. He looks like an Oxford street pickpocket. Rat featured swine.

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Lol

    2. TheSteel

      so classy. :claps:

    6. gwitbrock
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      is Rat Featured Swine the new song by Professor Green and Meghan Trainor?

  27. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    let's be honest Holebas is a crappy name for a footballer

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Aint no Holebas Gal is an unbeatable Stefani-based pop pun tho

  28. Lyonnais
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I always fall into the same trap. Every season I buy these attacking defenders who let me down massively.

    14/15 - Caulker GW1 - GW12...
    15/16 - Moreno GW14 - GW25...
    16/17 - Holebas ?

    To make it even worse I play them in almost every game because I fear I could miss out on a haul when they're on my bench...but the haul never comes...

  29. joescores
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Would you get Blind IN for this week only?

    For Vertonghen

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      For one week yes. However he certainly not nailed for longer term. Why one week ?

    2. BbBb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      You not got anything better to do then that move?

      1. BbBb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Than*

        1. joescores
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Won't play Vertonghen this weekend and could use FT. Thinking that Blind could repeat his corners to feed Zlatan

  30. jernej93
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Walcott, Lallana or Coutinho? (already have Firmino, no Arsenal cover)

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Theo

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      One of the first two.
