Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Everton

5 November 2016 2599 comments

The final act of a dramatic day is delivered from Stamford Bridge, as Antonio Conte’s Chelsea seek a fifth straight victory and clean sheet from their clash with Everton.

While Chelsea’s defence will be a focus for some Fantasy managers, this is very much a tale of two strikers, with the in-form Diego Costa and Romelu Lukaku colliding.

The Chelsea man is backed with the armband by 8% of FPL managers, while Lukaku claims 4%. The Belgian has returned in six of his last seven Gameweeks and will provide a stern test for Conte’s rejuvenated defence.

Eden Hazard is the other headline act on show – he’s bidding for his fourth successive goal, having attracted more than 148,000 owners heading into the Gameweek – he’s backed by 3% with the captaincy.

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

    Mourinho should buy Willian. Out of favour at Chelsea and the only player in the PL who likes him.

    Probably looking to do one of the following for free during the international break. Which option do you prefer?

    A) Firmino, Walcott --> Hazard, Gundogan
    B) Coutinho, Walcott --> Hazard, Gundogan
    C) Lukaku, Walcott --> Costa, Gundogan
    D) Sanchez --> Hazard
    E) None of the above

    If I did Sanchez (I know, I know) Smith and Amat to Hazard, Brunt and Lovren -8 it would give me five defs with good fixtures and allows bench boost to cover the hits. Is this as mad as it seems?

      Is that def rotation 8 points better? Sanchez to Hazard a push, so the defenders need to get the points in this swap, imo.
