A bitterly disappointing Saturday rumbles on with a tea-time encounter at White Hart Lane.

In Fantasy terms, the clash between Spurs and West Ham looks likely to offer little compensation – aside perhaps for a scouting mission on Harry Kane and a potential clean sheet for the 37.7% owners of Kyle Walker. Son Heung-min’s decline as an option continues as he is relegated to the Spurs bench.

West Ham turn up having enjoyed something of a revival and boasting the fading Fantasy asset that is Dimitri Payet. His talents will be monitored, although an evil run of fixtures for Slaven Bilic’s side is likely to temper any enthusiasm in the Frenchman and Michail Antonio; now owned by just 9.2% of FPL managers, he looks likely to start at right wing-back again this evening.

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

    Hello.

  2. Alan The Llama

    Bitterly disappointing

  3. Team Cruel

    Such a bad GW. 20p with only Kane, Rose, Alonso, Hazard (C), Costa, Heaton and Brunt left 🙁 🙁

      BAN.

        Caps aren't allowed mate

        1. mipola

          ban.

    Aguero > Anichebe

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    2. MTPockets
        9 years, 3 months ago

        If it wasn't for Costa's yellows, very tempting to do Rashford -> Anichebe + focus on big(ger) 5 mids.

            * wasn't meant to be a reply

          Is there any doubt at all?

      • Kuqi Monster
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Capoue and lovren both on the bench is a kick in the teeth

      • Ziro
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I wish luck to all Kane owners even though I dont have him. I punted on him around GW6 and was rewarded.

        1. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Thanks, man. I captained him.

            Good move

            Better than nothing aguero

        How on earth is Mark going to knee jerk today's games? 🙁

        3. The Fantastic Mr Fox
          • 11 Years

          Anichebe ofcourse

        Hi guys. If your goalkeeper does not play, will second keeper be auto subbed in?

        1. Flynny
          • 10 Years

          Yup

          • 10 Years

          36 is a green arrow for sure,

      • BrockLanders
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Had a feeling the big hitters would blank this weekend. Have Hazard (c) but think he may well blank aswell, probably should have went with gut Bruntinho captaincy..

      • JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        What are other Lukaku owners doing?

        Sure his form is alright but Everton's form as a team is not, and they don't have great fixtures either...

        1. jayzico
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Just sold for anichebe is very second Jaks

          1. JÆKS ⭐
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Haha, but seriously, felt he was a bit lucky against WHU, didn't even touch the ball against Chelsea and no points today against Swansea either

        2. jayzico
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Allows me Sanchez for Gundogan

      • MTPockets
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Fellow Rashford owners - any good ideas? Can't find great option for fixtures beyond going cheap and focusing on mids.

          1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Anichebe is the way

            1. MTPockets
                9 years, 3 months ago

                Yeah that's where I'm leaning at the mo to afford KDB. Fixtures aren't great though, which means need solid midfield.

            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Leaving Mata on the bench was a bad mistake given how low scoring this week is....

          3. Sandy Ravage
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Happy with 32 (-8) with Foster Alonso Hazard to come

            • 15 Years

            Son is the best example of a player going through a purple patch of form

            Many more available. Some going through that patch at the minute.

          6. Partick Bateman
            • 9 Years

            13 after bonus. Small green?

            1. Lumberjack
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Average is 21 I think?

              1. Partick Bateman
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                Posts merely in jest. A whoppingly bad week.

                Knew I should have done Aguero to Anichebe for a hit and captained him. Again, I jest.

                1. Lumberjack
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  Wish I'd had the kahunas to captain Defoe...

            2. Epic Fail
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              It's possible. Depends where you are.

              1. Partick Bateman
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                And I thought last week was bad. Capoue the only player to do something and he's rooted to the bench.

          7. BrockLanders
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Nothing more underwhelming than waiting 2 excruciating weeks of international football to watch that rubbish..

          8. Lumberjack
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Benteke predicted to fall tonight...sell now or keep for the next three (swa/SOU/hul) and hope he finds some form?

            1. Epic Fail
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Sell for whom?

              1. sully29
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                This is the issue.

                1. Lumberjack
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  Yeah, would have been Austin before today. 2FT so maybe Kane and move Allen on at the same time. Think I have the cash.

                2. fedolefan
                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  Defoe if you must. He's no flash in the pan.

                  1. Lumberjack
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 3 months ago

                    Already have him, thankfully

            2. bojack
              • 9 Years

              What price did you buy at?

              1. Lumberjack
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                7.4, will only lose 0.1 if I wait

                1. Flynny
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  Think I'm selling for anichebe...

                  Gonna move to 352 and spend the money on a 5th midfielder and defence....

                  1. Lumberjack
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 3 months ago

                    Yeah, that would allow me to get KDB or Hazard. Feels a bit jerky though.

          9. bojack
            • 9 Years

            Sakho at 5.8m? Tempted.

            Just made this team using 5 transfers(-4) between now and GW15. Sacrifice Kun and Alexis. Too risky?

            Heaton, Jaku
            Alonso, Walker, Cedric, Holebas, Amat
            KDB, FIrmino, Couts, Hazard, Walcott

            What's our thoughts on Walcott's place with Ramsey and Giroud into the mix?

            1. JÆKS ⭐
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Less nailed although I would like to hear some Wenger quotes on him being nailed, could do Fletcher + Lukaku to Walcott + 4.5 if that happens

            Selling Deeney tonight. But should I get: a) Giroud or b) Kane?!
            Giroud would put nearly £2m in bank, but is he nailed on now or still Super Sub?!
