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.

      Should be.

    All my expected Holebas points have been abducted 😀

    1. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 5 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, 5 months ago

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

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

          1. Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 5 months ago

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

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

                1. Worzel Gummidge
                    9 years, 5 months ago

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

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

              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
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

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 Demand the yellow be rescinded.

        3. Carlton P
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 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, 5 months ago

            He's on 4 YCs

            1. daveoafc77
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 5 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, 5 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!

        4. Acquafresca
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Jeff Hendrick essential

          Heaton - best keeper in the league

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

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

                    9 years, 5 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.

              • 11 Years

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

          Holebas was a poor pick,lets be honest

          Holebas to Burnley defender I think is my next move

          1. Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 5 months ago

              LOL

              I'm tempted by Robertson

                • 11 Years

                Wish I'd got Robertson instead of Kone this week

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

            • Acquafresca
              • 14 Years

              1. Worzel Gummidge
                  9 years, 5 months ago

                  First word would have been fine.

              • 9 Years

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

              Has Capoue had his one shot yet?

              1. Acquafresca
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                Nope, will score 2nd half 😉

                1. Bellerinmondo
                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 5 months ago

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

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

              B. Vert. Holebas. Coleman. Lovren

              Thinking Capoue and vertonghwn

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

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

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

                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...

                Would you get Blind IN for this week only?

                For Vertonghen

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

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

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