After a breathless conclusion to the quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, we have barely any time to regain composure before the day’s final match is upon us.

Composure is likely to be a rare commodity at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea and Spurs collide to rekindle their stormy affair in the tea-time clash.

Fantasy managers will be focused on the output of both Diego Costa and Eden Hazard, particularly with the Liverpool midfield failing to produce at Anfield. Costa has been handed the captaincy by 10% of FPL managers, with Hazard earning 5% backing. Elsewhere, Marcos Alonso’s 39,000 new owners will be banking on a seventh consecutive clean sheet.

Harry Kane’s performance will be key to those hopes. With three kind home fixtures to following this encounter, Kane is primed for investment and Fantasy managers will be using this evening’s encounter to carefully assess his prospects.

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

    Couthino price not protected when only orange flagged, right? Should mean a 0.2 drop at least, which should make it more viable buying back

      Red to available only.

  2. Kaneyonero

    Have Allen Hazard Firmino and Siggy. 0.3ITB

    Coutinho to who?

    Alli
    Walcott
    Pedro?

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years

      Zaha

    2. FCSB
      • 10 Years

      Same issue, with a little extra cash... I'm thinking either Wally or Mane?!

  3. Richd

    Goodbye Coutinho
    Goodbye Lukaku

    1. PvA
      • 9 Years

      You should've waited for tomorrow

      1. Richd

        I am happy if Lukaku scores 10 goals. Still want Harry next week.

        1. Pompel
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          neither Kane nor Lukak price set to move immediately, so might do just Couthino to Siggy.

    Hello my harry
    Hello my friend.

    You have been the one for me.

    Hello My Siggy

    Coutinho/Lukaku > Siggy/Kane
    For free?

    (Haz/Sanchez/Firminho)
    (Austin/Aguero)

    1. Richd
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      100% do it. I just did, so some would say its GENIUS

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I think alot of us are in this boat HVT.

      Coutinho/Lukaku > Siggy/ Kane or Costa

      this on a -4 for me, seems to good to miss.

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Those bloody yellows keep putting me off!
        Prob just do the Siggy move tonight just in case if an injury tomorrow

        1. My Name Is Prince
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          In the same boat (with the exact same attackers as well and 2 FTs)... Might just make the Siggy transfer tonight as his price might rise tonight... The others probably won't rise/fall tonight so can wait for tomorrow 😉

    3. MTPockets
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd wait a day

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        On Coutinho?
        -just in case??

        1. MTPockets
          9 years, 8 months ago

          On lukaku (admittedly I don't have lukaku).

    4. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I would

    5. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Good moves.

  6. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone have the link to Eriksen's screamer?

  7. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Kane or Costa, which one would you go for?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Kane....SWA, HUL and BUR in next three is too good to ignore.

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah, it would be a nice diff and much easier to sell Kane for Costa if needs be.

  8. Licious Lizard
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Have no idea on what to do, as a lot of the players I want have a bad fixture next week or just priced out.

    Pickford, Heaton
    McAuley, Evans, Nyom, Holebas, Kingsley
    Sanchez, Hazard, Allen, Snodgrass, Coutinho
    Aguero, Lukaku, Austin.

    2 FTs, 0.0 ITB.

    Looking to get in Siggy, Alonso, Cedric and possibly Kane in the next weeks. Might overlook Kane and wait and get Zlatan for gw 16.

    Possible transfer options:
    A) Coutinho+Lukaku -> Siggy + Costa/Kane. Don't like Costa/Siggy fixtures next week.
    B) Cout + Evans --> Siggy + Cedric/Alonso. Don't like Siggy/Alonso fixture
    C) Snodgrass + Evans -> Cedric + 5.1 mid
    D) Snodgrass/Allen -> cheap mid to raise funds for transfers next week.

    Any advice greatly appreciated, thanks.

    1. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A play the long game

      1. Licious Lizard
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks. I could ALSO do McAuley -> Cedric for -4...?

        Or wait a week or two and fund Evans -> Cedric with a Snoddy/Allen downgrade?

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Need Coutinho news tbh.

      1. Licious Lizard
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Think I am getting rid either Way. Best case is 1-2 weeks out imo and with Lallana also injured pool players have lost some of their appeal.

  9. Sess!
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Pedro, Walcott or eriksen as cot replacement? Have siggy.

  10. IWR
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Exact funds for Mane/Lukaku/Smith to Siggy/Costa/Alonso (-8). Do I dare?

    1. ANON.
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Wouldn't do that this week

      1. Sess!

    Lukaku to Kane a no brainer? Doesn't seem like prices will move tonight so I can wait till tomorrow?
    1ft, 2.1 in the bank.

    Heaton, Pickford
    VVD, Williams, Holebas, Evans, Amat
    Hazard, Mane, Firmino, Walcott, Fletcher
    Ibra, Lukaku, Austin

    1. KUNingas
      • 10 Years

      Should stay still tonight

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Looks like a no brainer. Keep an eye on lukaku drop but should be ok to wait

    Just realised I've got exact cash for lukaku and mustafi to kane and Cedric. Got 2ft and won't be able to afford it after lukaku drop tonight. Do it now? Will give me

    2. ANON.
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Lukaku will drop tonight? He's on -50 on fpl stats

    3. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years

      Yes

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Sorry my bad guys, thought I saw Lukaku due a drop earlier. Looks like I can wait a day

    6. fedolefan
      • 12 Years

      Lukaku shouldn't be dropping from what I can tell. -48.7%

    evening, hows your gw going?
    Mine got off to a stinker with KDB benched and Kun in the goals but sitting pretty now on 39 with 4 including cap left

    1. Sharpe Shuffle

      Not bad. 29 with 6 to play

      That's very good. I'm 32 with one to play.

      On 46 with 4 left so hopefully get over 60 for only the third time this season

  14. matiakez
    • 15 Years

    I know it's a long game but I just can't buy a hazard return this season

  15. Sharpe Shuffle
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Potentially a dumb question but if Coutinho's having a scan tomorrow, would the results of the scan typically be made available to the press the same day? Thanks

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Probably find out on Monday or Tuesday if we are lucky.

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      What chance of Woodburn being added as a 4.0m mid. I know prob 4.5 but nicer fodder at 4.0.

  16. Make United Great Again

    0.1 off a midfield of Siggy Manè Firmino Hazard Walcott 🙁

  19. Pompel
    • 12 Years

    Siggy is currently all the rage , but ideally one would want to wait after Spurs(a) to bring him in. Damn those price rises 😡

    1. Z
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Against his old club, who knows what might happen

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Or it might happen that Couthino's injury is nowhere near as bad as feared...

        1. Z
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          It looked pretty bad

    2. Sharpe Shuffle

      They don't look that solid without Toby

      Got him in this week and will now enjoy his price rise from the casuals

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Price swings being the crux here, agree on that

    5. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He's quality, on set-pieces, their dominant FPL pointsman. Even if Spurs hammer them he's prob good for an assist or something against his former club.

  20. Z
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    0.1 off Lukaku, Coutinho > Siggy, Kane

    Fund it with Heaton > Mannone?

    1. IWR
      • 10 Years

      Do you have 2 FT's. Wait for Heaton's injury report and possibly look elsewhere for the .1 IMO

    A) Kane
