There’s one more match to consider in Gameweek 10, as Stoke and Swansea go head to head at the bet365 this evening.

The Potters welcome Bob Bradley’s side on the back of two straight wins and clean sheets, with Joe Allen and Xherdan Shaqiri both bagging a brace in clashes against Sunderland and Hull respectively.

Indeed, Allen was the third most transferred in player ahead of the weekend deadline, with over 138,000 Fantasy Premier League managers snapping up his services on the back of four goals in as many league matches.

Despite a frustrating goalless draw at home to Watford last time out, the Swans will take heart from their recent 3-2 defeat at the Emirates.

Prior to Jermain Defoe’s converted penalty at the Stadium of Light on Saturday lunchtime, Swansea were the only side to score against Arsenal in eight matches across all competitions.

With the schedule smiling kindly from Gameweek 13 onwards, Gylfi Sigurdsson has the chance to stake a claim for inclusion in our five-man midfields.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      Got him on Friday night along with Coutinho for a 4 pt hit.

      Considering I got rid of Walcott and Snodgrass I'd say the hit was worth it!

  7. InSaneMan-e
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Funny thing is Allen could have gotten even more points
    Defoe not a Capoue

    Might even be the Ali of last season

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Ignore the typo Defoe! defo*

  8. Del Griffith
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Allen close to scoring that but he did well to cross to Bony for the goal

    Starting to hate my team again :/

    Cech Pickford
    Lovren Holebas Pieters Amat Robertson
    Alexis Coutinho Firmino Shaqiri Carrick
    Kun Lukaku Deeney
    1 FT 0.9 ITB

    A) Robertson > Fuchs
    B) Shaqiri > Siggy or Chadli
    C) Deeney > Austin

    Please help, getting desperate.

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Why do you hate it?
      That team would have gotten a lot of point this gw

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Stoke vs WH will be interesting

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years

  13. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years

  14. Pierce34
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    That's it, Pirlo now has to be known as the Italian Allen, as opposed to the other way round.

    1. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      could have been fuuny till you decided to explain it

      1. Pierce34
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I'll take that - it's a work in progress.

  15. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years

  17. Rasping Drive

    2. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

  25. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Bony 3
    Allen 2 🙁

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      So Allen added 3 and lost 1, netting 2.

  26. rivercityransom
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    that assist was actually worth only 2 points to allen owners, bony now firmly on 3 baps

  27. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    And how to bench Allen now...hope it wont be soo perfect vs WH and Austin will do the job !

  28. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Meh, just had a look at my benched points so far this season:
