The Weekly Shop – Gameweek 11

Welcome to our latest visit to the Weekly Shop, where we will help guide your selections for daily and weekly Fantasy Football squad building, scanning FanDuel’s player list with all ten Gameweek 11 fixtures in mind.

We’re focused on a trio of matches in particular, with the teams involved in all three encounters contributing a batch of players to our shortlist.

The Liverpool midfield have been in swashbuckling form in recent weeks, so it seems very likley that at least one of the Reds will make our line-ups and we may even double-up for the visit of Watford to Anfield.

The Hornets, conversely, provide us with defensive options, both from their backline and in midfield as they look to repel the waves of attacks from Jurgen Klopp’s side.

After a bright start to the campaign, Hull City have slipped into the relegation zone, and that leaves us looking at their bargain defenders for the visit of Southampton.

The Saints, meanwhile, will be looking to bounce back from defeat to Chelsea, and boast several attackers that demand consideration.

After some stuttering displays, Manchester City’s victory over Barcelona following the 4-0 thrashing of West Brom presents overwhelming evidence that they revitalised as an attacking force.

Weekend visitors Middlesbrough have back-to-back clean sheets and will set out to keep an unlikely third at the Etihad; their defensive picks could certainly prove profitable.

The Better Buys

We start the review of our targets by scanning the options in the top bracket – those players who cost the big money but have the fixtures and form to justify their price tags.

We will be looking to build our FanDuel squads around these assets, relying on them as the main force behind our weekend tallies.

Tom Heaton (£8.1m) is the standout contender for our keeper’s jersey at the top end of the market.

The Burnley skipper’s 57 saves this season is way ahead of Sunderland’s Jordan Pickford, who ranks next on 40. With just four goals conceded in six matches at Turf Moor, it’s difficult to ignore Heaton’s claims ahead of the visit of Crystal Palace.

For FanDuel defenders, we usually target away sides that seem destined to come under sustained attack from their hosts.

Only goalkeepers are rewarded points for clean sheets, so we need to seek out tackles won and clearances, blocks and interceptions (CBI’s) as our key source of points from the back.

Watford’s Jose Holebas (6.9m) has been a key source of points over recent weeks, picking up a 26 point FanDuel average across the last four Gameweeks.

The Greek has registered convincing all-round numbers – he’s the top defender for goal attempts (13) and also created nine chances. At Anfield, his defensive duties will be at the fore, though, and with 74 CBI’s and 14 tackles, it’s clear that he can offer potential in that area.

It seems likely that the Middlesbrough defence will be under severe pressure at the Etihad, so we’re looking to draft in George Friend (£7.7m) for our line-ups.

The full-back’s 80 CBI’s recorded is augmented by 25 tackles (worth two points apiece in FanDuel) this term – only team-mate Antonio Barragan (£7m) has won more.

Crystal Palace’s Scott Dann (£8.8m) returned against Liverpool and is in the top four defenders on FanDuel, posting an average of 23.75 points over six appearances.

A trip to Burnley promises sets up a key battle with Sam Vokes and offers Dann the opportunity to exploit his own aerial power at set-pieces: the Clarets have conceded more attempts from set plays (56) than any other side.

In midfield, we’re looking for more traditional sources of points – goals and assists – along with shots on target and chances created.

The Liverpool midfield can provide us with plenty of assets that fulfil those criteria.

Philippe Coutinho (£13.6m) has flourished of late, picking up a goal and a pair of assists in his last two matches.

The underlying numbers over the previous four highlight some the Brazilian’s form: he’s created 13 chances and fired in 16 goal attempts, with seven of those on target. Coutinho now has a 31.4-point average in FanDuel and will be pulling the strings against Watford.

If we need a cheaper option, we may well turn to Sadio Mane, who is available for £9.5m. The Senegalese has netted three of his four goals this term in four league matches at Anfield and created nine chances.

West Ham’s Dimitri Payet (£13.2m) has soared ahead of the midfield pack when it comes to creativity.

The Frenchman is now top for chances created, with 33 over eight outings. Payet is also averaging 3.5 shots and 26 FanDuel points per match.

His opponents Stoke have been more robust of late but have conceded 4.8 attempts per away match from set-pieces, a factor that plays into Payet’s hands.

Southampton’s Dusan Tadic (£9.6m) is another creative force that stands out: he makes the trip to a Hull City side that have suffered six straight defeats.

Team-mate Nathan Redmond (£8.8m) is also worth considering with a slightly stronger FanDuel average (20.07) than Tadic (19.98) and a lower price tag.

Both have had five shots on target over the last four and should gain more opportunities against the Tigers, who have shipped 20 goals in their last six outings.

In attack, we’ve now had our confidence renewed in Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero (£16.2m). Following his brace and assist at West Brom last time out, he could be indispensable to our squads ahead of the Etihad meeting with Middlesbrough.

Aitor Karanka’s side should surrender opportunities to a confident City, while Aguero’s 17 goal attempts (eight on target) over the last four trails only Manchester United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s (£15.2m) who boasts 25 with ten efforts on target.

Diego Costa’s (£12.3m) is the other form striker on our shortlist.

A total of 16 shots on target from 31 attempts highlight his accuracy so far this term and Costa’s consistency, scoring eight goals in ten matches, is just difficult to ignore.

The Spanish international has also created 12 chances to provide two assists and contributed defensively with 12 tackles and 17 CBI’s.

Costa’s FanDuel average of 30 points is surpassed only by Sunday’s upcoming opponent, Romelu Lukaku (£10.4m and 31), among the FanDuel forwards.

Poundstretchers

Now we delve into the cheaper end of the market across the positions, with a trio of goalkeeper options coming to the fore.

Manchester City’s Claudio Bravo (6.4m) earned his second clean sheet last time and faces a Middlesbrough side that have failed to score in two of their last four on the road.

Pep Guardiola’s reliance on his keeper as an auxiliary outfield player even helps Bravo pick up a few points from his passing.

Loris Karius (5.7m) has not had an ideal start to his Liverpool career, keeping one clean sheet in six, but the German should feel settled after five successive starts for the Reds. His opponents Watford travel to Anfield having scored just once in their last three away matches.

Leicester City have been resilient at home this campaign, keeping three clean sheets in five matches at the King Power Stadium with just two goals conceded.

With Kasper Schmeichel (£7.4m) out for at least a month due to a fractured hand, his deputy Ron-Robert Zieler (£4.5m) looks excellent value for money.

We’re banking on an end-to-end affair of the Emirates, which would promote Spurs’ Jan Vertonghen (£6.6m) as an option.

Keenly priced, the centre-back should improve on a 15.5 FanDuel points average against a potent Arsenal attack. An impressive 17 clearances against Leicester City last time out has helped put him rank fourth for CBI’s this with 125.

We’ve targeted James Tomkins as a potential budget alternative to Scott Dann from the Crystal Palace backline.

Available for just £5.6m, Tomkins has a FanDuel average of 18 points per match over the last six outings. Eight clearances against Liverpool bodes well ahead of the likely aerial battle against Burnley.

John O’Shea’s fitness doubts ahead of a trip to Bournemouth have us considering Papy Djilobodji (£6.8m) from a Sunderland rearguard that will be under fire.

The Senegalese defender has a 19.86 FanDuel average, having impressed earlier in the campaign, and could be good value if, as expected, he starts the clash at the Vitality Stadium.

Marcos Alonso (£5.8m) has been a regular of late in the Weekly Shop, and we just can’t ignore the Chelsea defender while he remains so kindly priced.

Seven clearances and four tackles last time helped accrue a score of 20.5 and, even with Everton as a testing opponent, the Spaniard has to be on our shortlist.

Similarly, midfielder Victor Moses (£5.8m) can’t be overlooked given his price point.

The Nigerian served up an assist at Southampton to add to his recent goal against Leicester City; those actions have contributed to a solid 26.5 point average over last four matches.

We’ve got our eyes on Southampton’s Sofiane Boufal (£6.5m) for the trip to Hull City.

We’ll be checking the Saints line-up for tonight’s encounter with Inter Milan for indication of the Moroccan’s possible involvement at the weekend.

The summer signing is pushing for a first league start after scoring the winner at Sunderland in the EFL cup last week. Boufal’s netted 11 goals and provided four assists in 29 league appearances for the Ligue 1 side last season.

Xherdan Shaqiri’s possible injury absence and Marko Arnautovic’s suspension could see Ramadan Sobhi (£4.3m) pick up a first Premier League start for Stoke at West Ham.

Prior to his move to the Potters, the young winger scored 17 goals and served up 15 assists in 74 outings for El Ahly Cairo.

The Egyptian will be providing service for Wilfried Bony (£5.9m), who finally got off the mark at the bet365 stadium with a brace against Swansea City.

West Ham will be missing defensive stalwart Winston Reid, and that may just help compensate for Stoke’s absentees and provide Bony with opportunities.

Bournemouth will host a porous Sunderland defence on the south coast, which has us considering striker Callum Wilson (£7m).

Three goals from 20 attempts this season and spot-kick duties make Wilson our pick of the Cherries attack.

Finally, Southampton’s Charlie Austin is still available for £6.1m and, while he’s blanked in the last two, he netted four goals in as many matches prior to that spell. The forward looks strong value ahead of the clash at the KCOM stadium.

I will return on Friday with our FanDuel Focus article, revealing just how many of this list made the final cut to take their place amongst my preferred line-up, along with a review of the available contests ahead of the weekend.

    Which of these 2 options?

    352
    *Hazard* Sanchez Firmino Coutinho Allen

    Aguero Lukaku (*Diamonde*)

    Or
    343
    Sanchez Firmino Coutinho Allen (*Fletcher*)

    Aguero Lukaku *Austin*

    Sanchez becomes Hazard in the 343 formation

    1. piotas
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I have a similar doubt, Leaning for the 3-5-2 formation

      1. Funkyav
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        correct me if im wrong but doesnt that mean:

        Hazard vs Austin ???

        only 1 winner there if so!

        1. piotas
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          has to be Hazard

        2. Donhush
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Yes it does. Sanchez could become hazard in the 343 formation.

  2. hazardous11
    • 8 Years

    I got

    De Gea (Foster)
    Walker,Koscielny,Pieters,Amat,Hoolgate
    Capoue , Walcott*,Alexis,Coutinho,Allen
    Aguero,Costa,Grabban

    Thinking to take -4 hit and sub
    Walcott and Grabban > Gundogan , Vokes

    Any better ideas ?

    1. Help Me!
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think it's worth the hit,
      At least don't go for Grabban to Vokes

  3. HamezMace
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    A. Bolasie, Costa, Capoue
    B. Hazard, Austin, Fletcher

    Capoue, and Fletcher would be non-playing 5th mids.

    Sanchez, Firmino, Allen
    Lukaku, Aguero

    1. Help Me!

      Thanks guys

    Funny some Theo sellers are saying he's not a good option anymore

    The guy had 7 goals and 1 assists in 7 in all competitions prior to the injury

    And he is crucial to Arsenal to brinig the best out of Alexis and Ozil. I cant see Giroud/Ramsey/Ox ousting Theo on current form

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Think he's a good option after this weekend. I don't think he'll start this weekend given doubts over his fitness.

    2. andy85wsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I've sold and still think he's going to be a great option.

      Will he be a great option over the next 2? Perhaps not, and I'm banking on that being the case as I sold for Coutinho last week.

      Am I already looking at bringing him back in GW13? Yup.

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I could understand if it was for someone like Coutinho. Coutinho looks like a season keeper

        But people selling him for likes of Gundogan is pretty knee jerky.

        Could work for next 2 but long term a fully fit and inform Theo will be fantasy gold

      2. KDF
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Coutinho looks the best Mid option for two weeks at least imo

    3. _Freddo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      People will say what they want to hear themselves, look at Aguerogate last week, look at the captain poll this week.

      I don't think half those people that doubted him really believed it and the captaincy poll this week reflects that (unless all the doubters are in hiding and haven't voted)

      1. Funkyav
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Theo could easily lose his place in the next 2 games

        1. _Freddo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          He could also keep his place and score in both but that doesn't fit in with the seller's plans so might as well assume he'll be dropped.

          1. Funkyav
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            I dont have him, I have Sanchez thankfully. I nearly got him in a couple of weeks back but doubled up on LFc mids instead.

            There is always a risk with Theo and I think he is massively overrated on this site, but this game is all about opinions!

            1. HurriKane
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 4 months ago

              He's massively overrated in real life but in fantasy football he's gold

              Theo goal/assist to 90 min is similar to Alexis despite playing around 100 games more

              (have to dig up the post which has stats to back this statement)

  5. Help Me!
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Yo guys! I know my team is very messed up and I need some help here! (Edited repost)

    Current team: 2 FTs & 1.5 in Bank

    Boruc - Karius
    Bellerin - Pieters - Arbeloa - Lovren - Amat
    Sanchez - Hazard - Sterling - Firmino - Capoue
    Benteke - Lukaku - Diomande

    A) Lukaku to Aguero & Arbeloa to Fuchs & Sanchez to Allen (-4)

    B) Lukaku to Aguero & Bellerin to Morgan/Stones & Benteke to Austin (-4)

    C) Arbeloa to Fuchs & Sanchez to KDB

    D) Anything else which is better?

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Does this work? You need to get Aguero in but Bellerin & Sanchez look the best ways to do that, I would want to keep Lukaku.

      Bellerin > Morgan
      Sanchez > Coutinho
      Benteke to Aguero

      1. Help Me!
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Can't already have 3 Livs

        1. Pegboy
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Karius is a big headache. I'd be tempted by a -8 and include him in the exodus to free up some cash and a Liv spot.

    2. Pegboy
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Is this doable? Benteke + Bellerin + Sterling > Kun + Holebas + Allen?

      Holebas, Pieters and Lovren are playable every week for the next month or so, until you get a chance to downgrade one of your keepers.

      1. Help Me!
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yup, it is. But I guess I'll get Fuchs instead of Holebas

  6. Dušan Citizen
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Walcott better start against Tottenham. I am using my AOA.

    1. devils advocate
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      He will.

      - Injury was very minor

      - Despite the result, the CL match was an easier fixture on paper so no need to risk him and perfect chance to rest him ahead of the NL derby

      - Now seen at training ahead of the weekend

      He'll play 100% imo.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers mate, that gives me more confidence. So my hit transfer will be Williams to Brunt.

        1. devils advocate

    Was Heaton always this good?

    1. ANON.
      • 10 Years

      Yes. Season 14/15 he got 150 points

    2. devils advocate
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Always a very good shot stopper.

    3. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Curious to see how he isnt playing for a better team. Especially clubs like Lpool who have some of the worst possbile keepers given their stature.

    Need some help with transfer this week please!

    Heaton Foster
    Van Dijk Walker Holebas Amat Love

    Aguero Lukaku Barrow

    1) Sanch to Hazard, Barrow to Austin

        why do you torture yourself like this

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          It's not really torture to be honest, defence has coped well enough without.

          Mustafi - Lovren - Holebas this week.

          I will get rid of him when needed (probably next week unless I get Fuchs this week)

          1. RustyBz
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Fair enough but surely cash better spent elsewhere!

            1. andy85wsm

              7 years, 4 months ago

              In the 5 weeks I've had him my defenders have scored:

              2-6-7
              5-2-6
              7-1-15
              2-6 (AoA)
              0-2-0

              The 0-2-0 was the week I brought him in so screwed me over the most. Otherwise I think I've done okay.

              Cash definitely better spent elsewhere but I've always had something else to do, primarily in midfield. Plus he was supposed to be back at some point so that threw me off.

      Sterling has had 4 blanks in a row.

      Capoue has had 5, Ibra 6 (for context)

      At what point does Sterling stop getting an easy ride on this site?

  12. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Which is the better option?

    A) Cech to Heaton

    B) Coleman to Fuch/Morgan

    C) Both for a (-4)

    Appreciate your thoughts!

    1. ANON.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      A

  13. Cheester
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Stekelenburg Or Pickford

    1. Park the bus
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Stek not injured?

      1. Teddy Steddingham
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

        I read somewhere he's back. Can't remember where so, might have been a dream

      2. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Look above

    2. devils advocate
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Stekels.

      Better team, better keeper, better shot stopper, better defence in front of him, etc, etc.

      You see the pattern there right?

      1. Cheester
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yup he's back but against Chelsea while Pickford is against Bournemouth. I'm undecided. Is Sunderland playing v poorly now?

        1. devils advocate
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Not sure if that's a serious question, but yes, Sunderland are playing poorly now, before, and forever after.

          Sunderland will concede 6 goals.

          Everton are a slim chance to keep a CS, or will concede 2-3 at most.

          I didn't say either was a great option, but that also wasn't your question now was it. 😉

      Surely that's photoshopped right?

      If not that is the funniest thing I've seen! Lol!!

      If I was a supporter I'd hand in my season tickets over that. 🙂

      7 years, 4 months ago

      1-0 Arsenal

      Said as a Spurs fan 🙁

  15. Teddy Brewski
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Which two to play this gw?

    Pickford (bou) or Grant (whu)
    McAuley (lei) or Pieters (whu)

    1. Park the bus
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Grant McAuley
      not much in it to be fair

      1. Teddy Brewski
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah tough one to get right. I was swaying towards the same two to be fair

  16. Park the bus
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Allen or Gundogan?

    1. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Gundogan

    2. devils advocate
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Drinkwater.

    3. Pegboy
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Allen

    Walcott trained today then: http://pbs.twimg.com/media/CwV23-nXEAAr4UL.jpg

    Hopefully he starts, might risk keeping him now.

  18. dicky2014

    Will Pickford EVER go up?

    1. Park the bus
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      does it matter? unlikely to go up to 4.2 unless he scores massively this week or Sunderland start churning out CS's. Also not secure place when Mannone comes back.

      1. dicky2014
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        True

    2. devils advocate
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      For a corner?

  19. ANON.
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Good to go? 1ft 0,3 in the bank.
    Keeping Walcott and Ibra

    Heaton
    VVD, Holebas, Evans
    Mane, Sterling, Walcott, Redmond
    Aguero(c), Ibra(v), Lukaku

    Pickford, Williams, Fletcher, Amat

    1. ANON.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Feel like it could be my week this one

    2. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      g2g if Ibra performs

    3. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Ye, save FT for IB.

  20. Brehmeren

    So, Schmeichel have broken his hand in yesterday's match. Out for a month (at least). Would this make you reevaluate Leicester's clean sheet potential?
    I probably wouldn't have transferred in Simpson on Monday had I known then..

    1. skeyrd
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      not for me, I think Leicester, especially at home, are still a great pick for CSs. that said, the other Lei options like Fuchs do offer a bit more than CS potential as well

    2. Colonel Klink
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Zieler performed decently before, didn't he?

    3. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      They have a few fixtures where I wouldn't expect the keeper to be overly worked. Think their defenders are still a good option. The sub goalie has been capped a few times for Germany so I suspect he's no mug.

      There's a hot topic on this (see side widget)

      Zielier doesn't look that great. 1 save v Burnley, shipped 4 v ManU.

  21. Colonel Klink
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Is Rhodes as an enable a terrible idea?

    1. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      if you have 5,4 get Allen or Gundogun

      1. Colonel Klink
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        It would be in the forward position, but cheers? Are you that hopeful on Gundogan?

        1. Colonel Klink
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I didnt mean to put a question mark after cheers...

  22. Buck The Trent
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Only have 2 playing defender and Monreal is a doubt.

    For a hit, would you do Monreal to ?
    A Fuchs
    B Stones
    C Alonso

    1. Colonel Klink
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Who are the two not-playing defenders? Maybe upgrade one of them, even if to someone cheap?

  24. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Which 1 to play?
    Fer or Allen or Capoue?

    1. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Allen

  25. Excuse The Kun
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Hi there!

    Cech (Jaku)
    Clyne - Morgan - Smith - (McAuley - Kingsley)
    Cout - Firm - Sanchez - Allen - Moses
    Kun - Kaku - Austin

    I bench:
    Allen: whu without Arnie and Fat Shaq
    Moses: EVE

    Cheers

    1. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Bench Moses probably

  26. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Who'd you rather come in for Wally if he doesn't feature? Capoue or Pieters?

    1. Skyarm
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Probably Capoe as Stoke CS is unlikely

    2. RustyBz
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Pieters

    3. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Pieters

    4. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      meh, toss a toin

    5. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Pieters

      For me Joe "Welsh Xavi" Allen will be coming on (sold capoue to allen for next gw 😉

  27. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    I have to play 4 defenders. Only one CS expected. Should I take a hit to get Allen for Snoddy to boost my attack?

    Foster
    Holebas, Stones, Koscielny, PVA
    Sanchez, Coutinho, Firmino
    Kun(c), Kaku, Charlie

    Subs: Pick, Capoue, Snoddy, Amat

    Thanks!

    1. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      You could play Capoue for the hot 2 points. I dont think Allen can get you 4 points more than your defender/Capoue so I wouldnt take a hit.

  28. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    prediction, heaton doesn't get more than 4 points in any of the next 6 gameweeks. the 'essential' curse

    1. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Im happy with him getting 4 points week in.

    2. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 7 Years

      Heaton always delivers, don't worry.

  29. Licious Lizard
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Who would you play?

    A) Holebas (liv) or
    B) PVA (bou)

    Cheers

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago
