A busy Sunday comes to its conclusion as Leicester City host West Bromwich Albion at the King Power.

The Foxes are seeking a fourth clean sheet in six at the King Power this time around but will need to do so without the services of Kasper Schmeichel, who is ruled out with a fractured hand.

Both Robert Huth and Danny Simpson walk the Suspension Tightrope for this one, though many will be taking the chance to scout Christian Fuchs as the schedules smiles kindly on the Foxes.

With Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy devoid of form, Islam Slimani – with 20 points in three home fixtures – and Ahmed Musa, who has scored in each of the last two, have the chance to stake a claim as differentials to consider up top. Vardy’s 9% owners are left further frustrated by Claudio Ranieri’s decison to drop him to the bench today.

West Brom, meanwhile, are devoid of talisman Nacer Chadli, who underwent minor knee surgery last week. Given that the Belgian has played a part in 75% of his side’s goals since arriving from Spurs, another shut-out could be on the cards for the champions.

      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      You have to be Heaton or De Gea to keep a clean sheet against Liverpool

    3. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

    Foster / Jaku
    Bellerin / Stones / Friend / Amat / Holebas
    Sanchez / Firmino / Allen / Wally / De Roon
    Aguero / Lukaku / Deeney

      Get in all the bandwagons and catch price rises.

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      No - take the hits - Deeney to Austin and Sanchez to Hazard.

    3. EDEN THE MAN
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Maybe

      Deeney-Austin(0.3)
      Bellerin-Alonso(0.8)
      Stones-Williams(+0.1)
      Jaku-Pickford(0)
      Foster-Heaton(+0.1)
      Allen-Chadli(-1.4)

      ??????

    How nailed on is Brunt? Is he worth the extra 0.4 compared to Evans or 0.2 to McAuley?

    I have the exact funds to make Walcott -> Hazard and Smith -> Brunt.

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I think McAuley is better

    2. Too Mane Men
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Brunt playing as an attacking mid and takes corners from both sides. Well worth it IMO

  6. MrMaverick
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    LOL at how people on here rate Pulis and WBA CS potential soo highly

        2. Worzel Gummidge
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Allan got the points today. rarely gets them otherwise. Average pick at best IMO

          1. Worzel Gummidge
            9 years, 10 months ago

            *Lallana

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      True - but their defenders are cheap and they will keep enough clean sheets at their price to make them value. Lets you spend on Hazard, Costa, Lukaku, Coutinho etc.

    3. worldchampion

  7. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    I'd love a Toby A price drop during the intl break! What players would you like to have a price drop?

    1. faver
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      kdb/hazard but it seems unlikely at all

    2. Styles_X
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Kaku

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Ok change of question; realistic price drops without needing an intl injury etc!

  8. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Nothing to see here anymore. See ya in two weeks.

  9. Donblaster
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    anyone worse than 1 clean sheet out of last 20 games for their defenders?

  10. Bleach †
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Would you start Koscielny vs ManUtd away?

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I'd sell him

      1. faver
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        I would sell any high price defender. It is a gamble now, you cant support anything about clean sheets by the number this season.

      2. Bleach †
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Need to get rid of Holebas first

    2. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      yes

    3. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Perhaps a header like van der Horn against Utd

    4. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      yes, that's what you get premium defenders for, you can play them in big games hoping they score from a set-piece, plus there always a chance of a cleanie

  11. ekul the lokonga enthusiast

    Lost my foster CS

    See you all in two weeks

  12. JIM BOB

    Best punt for a draft league until Xmas?

    A) Rooney
    B) Slimani

    1. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Slim. Fixtures

  13. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Getting in Fuchs over Alonso is one of the killer decisions I just can't get right.

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Same but I'll be honest. I was only thinking of fixtures so I went with Leicester defence...

      Clearly regret that now.

        Disastrous gameweek

  14. lasmons
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Heaton
    Holebas* - Smith* - Lovren
    Sanchez - Firmino - Couthino - Allen
    Kun - Benteke - Ibra*

    Robinson - Evans - Carrick - Amat

    Would you do
    Ibra + Sanchez + Smith -> Costa + Hazard + Alonso for -4?
    Need to do it now because all three will raise in price before next gw.

    1. AndyCook
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Nah keep Sanchez get rid of Allen

      1. lasmons
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Ok. What about Allen+Ibra -> Hazard+Vokes?

  15. Elijah's Wood
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    I have the exact money to do Walcott > Coutinho, is it worth doing it now before being priced out?

    Hoping to have this front 7 after the break:

    Sanchez Firmino Coutinho Hazard Allen
    Aguero Austin

    1. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I have that + Defoe

      1. Elijah's Wood
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Worth it then? Walcott vs Coutinho, double Pool vs double Ars

        1. Tommy J
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 17 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Did you see the games? Definitely-also look at Liv fixtures.

          1. Elijah's Wood
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Aye, its getting difficult to enjoy watching Pool when you dont own their key player lol

    2. AndyCook
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, I have that except Redmond instead of Allen and pretty happy

      1. Elijah's Wood
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Just trying to remember if there were comments about both Firmino and Coutinho being called up for Brazil and potentially missing GW12?

  16. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Double Chelsea appears the only worthy defence this season. Money only appears wasted in defence thus far.

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Disagree. Spurs have 5 clean sheets so far, Arsenal have 4 and only lost last 2 cleanies to penaltys

      1. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Wouldn't go near Spurs due to relentless tinkering for champs league. Sold bellerin this week to afford hazard - happy with that

  17. ryacoo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Prioritise Hazard or Coutinho in?

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Coutinho seems more consistent recently and so is Hazard

      Coutinho if based on points per price

  18. Chicxulub
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Cameron, Holebas, Lovren, Smith and Lenihan.

    Anyone worse?

  19. AndyCook
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Is Alonso or Azpi worth bringing in for Walker as a season keeper? Or will it more or less even out do we think?

    1. EDEN THE MAN
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      YES::::::::::::::::::::::::::::ALonso

  20. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Premium defenders are really overrated this season.

    1. MrMaverick
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      ALONSOOO

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Except that one guy that I didn't get in this week instead of Fuchs *sigh*

  21. Jay_
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Apart from that 2 minute burst, this had 0-0 written all over it. Sickener

    1. 1zverGGademN
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      |And this fac hurts even more when you played with Zieler and McAuley

  22. Scotty B
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Considering who to get in for Zlatan.

    Could Kane be a good differential?

  23. Bleach †
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    When Arsenals fixtures get better, would you rather have Alexis or Özil. Özil meaning I could bring in Hazard

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Özil great cover

  24. Who Ate All Depays?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Gus, what would u suggest?

    Pickford
    Walker / Coleman / Holebas
    Sanchez / Walcott / Firmino / Coutinho
    Aguero / Lukaku / Austin
    (Grant / Fletcher / Amat / Robertson)

    A) Robertson -> 4.5m def
    B) Walcott & Austin -> Hazard & Anichebe (-4)
    C) any other suggestion

    1. AndyCook
      9 years, 10 months ago

      B, your team value must be massive
