Sunday’s events conclude at St Mary’s as Southampton play host to Sean Dyche’s Burnley.

The Saints will be seeking a fourth consecutive clean sheet in the Premier League, a seventh in a row in all competitions.

Visitors Burnley will need to improve their attacking threat in order to threaten that record. The Clarets have scored just five goals from their seven matches, creating three big chances – the fewest in the Premier Leauge.

The Saints attack has disappointed with just seven goals scored in their seven matches. However, the statistics show that they have the potential to improve on that record in this one: Claude Puel’s side have produced a shot on goal every 4.8 minutes at St Mary’s – only Liverpool have been more threatening in home matches this season.

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

    Save yourself, Redmond.

    1. Mull
      10 years, 4 days ago

      You still own Redmond? 😯

    2. FPL Footy Show Pod

      This, possibly for this week only unless he fires!

  5. Lone Wolf FPL
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Choose one each:

    1. Evans -> 3.9 (got Amat)
    2. Snodgrass -> Allen (4th mid)

    A) Williams -> Vertonghen
    B) Valencia -> Mustafi

    1. Mr_Forest3
      10 years, 4 days ago

      2A

  6. Jasoooooooo
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Baines -> Holebas and Antonio -> Wally for a -4 point hit. Lock it in guys?

    1. umerlfc
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Bring in Wally
      And take a hit for Holebas only if the rest you defense is really poor

      1. umerlfc
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Rest of your*

      2. I Member
        10 years, 4 days ago

        He probably needs to downgrade Baines to afford Walcott.

        1. Jasoooooooo
          10 years, 4 days ago

          Yep, you're right

      3. Jasoooooooo
        10 years, 4 days ago

        The only way I can afford Wally is if I do the Holebas transfer. Still worth it?

    2. I Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Good moves but no need to rush.

      1. Jasoooooooo
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Okay cheers mate

  7. dhamphiir
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Who should I transfer out first?
    A. Morgan
    B. Lovren
    C. Deeney
    D. Snodgrass

    1. I Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Don't think any of them really need to be sold. Liverpool and Hull have great fixtures, Leicester's are about to turn, and Deeney is in good form with Swansea and Hull up next.

    2. Atimis
      10 years, 4 days ago

      I want to buy Lovren...xD

  8. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Should I wildcard?

    .4 ITB
    1 FT

    Schmeichel
    Valencia / Pieters / Stones
    Sanchez / Redmond / Antonio / Firmino
    Aguero / Deeney / Lukaku

    Jaku / Capoue / Evans / Friend

    1. umerlfc
      10 years, 4 days ago

      No

    2. Stokelona
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Looks fine dingo

    Hi, appreciate some clarification on this. I bought antonio at 7.0, his price went up to 7.3 and my selling price is 7.1 (50% rule). The price has gone down to 7.2 and soon it will be 7.1. When that happens will his selling price remain 7.1 or drop back to 7.0?

    1. MTPockets
      10 years, 4 days ago

      7

      1. Sarkha Sam
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Thanks

    2. Sharpe Shuffle
      10 years, 4 days ago

      When his price is 7.1, you will be able to sell him for only 7.0. It rounds down

      1. Sarkha Sam
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Thanks

  10. Ravager
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Foster (Japu)
    Walker Mustafi Williams (Kelly Amat)
    Sanchez Firmino Antonio Capoue (Fletcher)
    Aguero Deeney Lukaku

    1 FT 1.1 ITB.

    Suggestions?

    1. umerlfc
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Walcott bandwagon?

    2. I Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Antonio -> Walcott for sure.

      1. Ravager
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Think I can afford to wait til after CL? Was also thinking of cashing in on Capoue> Allen?

        1. I Member
          10 years, 4 days ago

          I'm considering Capoue -> Allen as well.

          Yeah I think you can afford to wait. Already missed Walcott's rise last night.

          1. Ravager
            10 years, 4 days ago

            Yup. Thanks for replying!

  11. Tibbs
    10 years, 4 days ago

    How's my knee looking, tad jerky

    Jaku / Capoue / Antonio >>>Grant/ Walcott/ 4.4m (4pt)

    Need to do them all to fund just Antonio>Walcott

    Yay or nay?

    1. I Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      It's a yes from me.

      1. Tibbs
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Thanks, reluctant to drop Sterling just yet but Antonio's time is up.

    2. Stokelona
      10 years, 4 days ago

      As I said on the last thread not really much point taking a hit on jaku>grant when butland's due back in 3-4 weeks

      1. Stokelona
        10 years, 4 days ago

        But Antonio>Walcott is obvs a big upgrade

  12. Forever In Our Shadow

    10 years, 4 days ago

    I have just noticed that currently Holebas has scored as much as Jonty whole team. :-O

  13. Sharpe Shuffle
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Holebas 15 points on the bench. Ouch

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      10 years, 4 days ago

      🙁

  14. TJ_777
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Is Allen actually playing well? I think I might do
    Capoue -> Allen
    For the price rises

    1. umerlfc
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Playing in the Number 10 role. Also in the form of his life

    2. England's Number 1
      10 years, 4 days ago

      3 shots from inside the box, 2 goals. Centre of everything good in attack.

  15. BB-8
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Who would you rather have for next week only?

    Holebas (swa)
    Allen (hull)

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Holebas

    2. Jasoooooooo
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Allen, playing against Hull = goals

    3. umerlfc
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Allen

    4. Nicks93
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Allen

  16. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Austin not starting would have made Hazard my Captain and got Bolasie off bench...Hope he scores a brace today

  17. Rhinos
    10 years, 4 days ago

    gw 11 liverpool and 16 man city the only 2 games im gonna be worried bout playing Holebas all the way upto january. Nice

  18. Atimis
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Guys, I need some help here:
    Sanch/Firm/Wally/Sterling/Capoue
    Rashford/Kun/Kaku

    1.Capoue>Allen 3-5-2
    2.Rashford/Capoue>Lallana/Dio 3-5-2
    3.Sterling/Rashford>Costa/Allen 3-4-3

    Any other ideas ?
    Still need more thoughts what to do...
    Thanks!

    1. MTPockets
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Same as mine except Costa instead of Lukaku.
      Don't see need for change yet personally.

      1. Atimis
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Maybe I will make Capoue Allen switch, bench Rashford and see what will come after GW9

        1. MTPockets
          10 years, 4 days ago

          Fair enough but while Rashford's starting games prefer him for next few (exc gw9 - burnely/swansea).

          1. Atimis
            10 years, 4 days ago

            Maybe tomorrow will give some answers about Rashford. Anyway Allen vs Hull is very tempting...

  19. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Love you holebas

  20. blog
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Pickford

    Bellerin | Fuchs | Koscieny,

    Sanchez (C) | Son | Coutinho | Allen | Sterling

    Aguero | Wilson

    Subs: Rashford | Holebas | Lenihan | Boruc

    gtg for gw 9?

  21. Garlana
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Pick 1 to bench:

    Walker(bou)
    Williams(bur)
    Lovren(WBA)
    Amat(WAT)

    I'm benching amat atm... thoughts?

    1. Jasoooooooo
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Bench Amat

    2. Atimis
      10 years, 4 days ago

      I would def bench Amat

  22. TheCurseOfRaheem
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Well played Holebas owners. Seeing how this week has gone, must have been quite a feeling.

    1. MTPockets
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Yeah nice surprise - totally forgot about the game.

  23. Jasoooooooo
    10 years, 4 days ago

    I'm wondering what has changed with Allen over the last couple of weeks? Has his role changed, is he getting plenty of shots on goal, or is this current run of form just fluky??

    1. Tansey
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Compared to his role at Liverpool, he's playing in a more advanced midfield role now, but still I can't see him keeping this going much longer, he never was one for the goals

  24. davies
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Play:

    A) Allen (hul)
    B) Rashford (che)

    My transfer depends on this decision.

    1. Jasoooooooo
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Allen just IMO, can see Stoke scoring a few against Hull

    2. I Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      A

    3. Atimis
      10 years, 4 days ago

      I am thinking about Capoue>Allen and benching Rashford so I would say A

  25. I Member
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Pickford (Foster)
    Koscielny - Valencia - Holebas (B. Davies, Amat)
    Sanchez - Firmino - Sterling - Snodgrass (Capoue)
    Aguero - Lukaku - Deeney

    1 FT, 0.3 ITB.

    A) Save
    B) Sterling -> Walcott
    C) Capoue -> Allen (play AOA and bench Valencia)
    D) Valencia -> Clyne
    E) B. Davies -> Pieters

  26. Tansey
    10 years, 4 days ago

    And the Annual Gameweek 8 Tadic Party is underway

  27. umerlfc
    10 years, 4 days ago

    What are the chances of Clyne playing tomorrow?
    That's the only way Holebas can treat me from my bench

    1. Bubz
      10 years, 4 days ago

      I think he will

  28. Differentiator
    10 years, 4 days ago

    What a save from Heaton! Wow

    1. Differentiator
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Seen the replay. World Class Save

    2. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Fantastic save

  29. KingNidge
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Serious goalkeeping from Heaton

  30. LewanGOALski
    10 years, 4 days ago

    What a save from Heaton! :O
