Gameweek 13 is now brought to a conclusion with a couple of late Sunday afternoon kick-offs.

Manchester United entertain West Ham United at Old Trafford, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic back in contention after serving a one-match ban.

The big Swede notched twice in his previous league appearance and faces a defence that’s been breached 14 times in six road trips already.

Juan Mata, meanwhile, earned over 52,000 transfers in last week after bagging the opener at home to Arsenal.

Michail Antonio is the Hammers’ top scoring FPL asset, having served up a goal and assist in the last two Gameweeks. The midfielder has already netted against Man City, West Brom and Spurs away from home, though sits just one yellow shy of a single-match ban today.

Southampton and Everton go head-to-head at St Mary’s in the other 4.30 fixture.

The Saints’ defence kept Liverpool at bay last time out and could come under increased FPL interest if they can repel former manager Ronald Koeman’s Toffees.

Romelu Lukaku has netted just once in his last four league outings and suffered a price drop in the previous Gameweek.

With Man United, Arsenal and Liverpool in the next four, the Everton talisman needs a return to form this afternoon to stave off further transfers out.

    Worth waiting for Coutinho news? Or are you selling him tonight?

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

      yes

    2. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sold. His ankle pretty much snapped off.

    3. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I haven't got him.

    4. nkhoughton
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He's going down tonight and won't be playing next week beyond that I dunno but 0.2 drop is likely if you can afford to hold do it

    5. andymck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He won't be playing next week so that's enough for me.

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

      Waiting only because I won't lose SV with this first fall

    7. Le _ Professeur
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Most are selling, I'm too

      1. Le _ Professeur
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        You should only wait if you won't lose selling value

  2. Chicken-Mandy
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anichebe, Sanchez and a 3.9 defender
    Or
    Austin, Walcott and Holebas?

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

      B

    2. GiveUsAChance
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      defo not holebas

    3. RD
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Try to squeeze Cedric instead of Holebas

  3. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Guardiola has a lot to answer for! Sold Aguero instead of Lukaku for Ibra(c)... Ibra(c) Kun Austin would have looked sweet but having been on 9 this morning I guess all out on 51 is a decent recovery.

    Lukaku>Kane done and good riddance.

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Don't blame Guardiola.

  4. lickwidice
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hazard + Defoe --> Kane + Sirgudsson for free?

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

      Ditching hazard is brave even for kane

    2. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      no i don't like that

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

      Not keen on getting rid of Hazard tbh. Must have alternatives?

      1. lickwidice
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        See my team here... don't know what else to do. Costa --> Kane?

  5. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    9 years, 8 months ago

    Evening all...
    How did everyone do this week?
    Points please
    Winner gets a pat on the back
    I'll kick things off with 70

  6. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Lads, if 38 is the safety score for LMS, 38 is enough to get thru right?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        cheers, just squeezed thru

  7. Aladdin Sané
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone for Ozil over Walcott...?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nah.

  8. bangers and M*A*S*H
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Fer or Can as a fifth midfielder?

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

      Fer

    2. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I like Fer more than Can

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

      Fer every day

    4. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Neither for me

    5. Lecky Legs FC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Can

  9. Pino
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    In 13 GWs I have only twice had a good captain. I missed on both Agueros 2x goals, never had Sanchez and Costa. Down to 420k now 🙁

  10. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Which one of Aguero, Sanchez, Hazard and Kane are you not going to own over this period?

    For me it looks like I'll be without Kane.

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

      Kun and maybe kane but trying to get kane, own hazard and Alexis

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      aguero. I can get Costa Kane Sanchez Hazard and Mane with out aguero

    3. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez and Kane. Gulp.

    4. Brian (Not the Messiah)
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Costa is also in the 10mil+ bracket.

    5. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have all 4...

      1. Epic Fail

    7. andymck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez, probably Kane too.

    8. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

    9. Lawrø

    13. Le _ Professeur
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Unfortunatly Sanchez, haven't owned since the start of the season

    14. 1966 was a great year for E…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hazard if anyone, but gonna try to squeeze them all in.

    15. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      For those with all 4, what is your team like then? Not much balance?

      1. fiveyears
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I can't see how you could have balance, it's pretty much those four + basement players once a Liv mid is taken into account.

  11. Lecky Legs FC
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Just done Coutinho,Fuchs & Stanislas > Cedric,Pedro & Toure for a -4 had to have one differential in there 😉

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

      Yaya is the risk. Like Cedric and Pedro

      1. Lecky Legs FC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I know but I thought you'd be proud with me choosing a differential?! 🙁

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

          I like the Pedro differential 🙂

          Yaya is a bit of a rotation issue! I took a -12 last week and still somehow climbed 50k places, so who knows!

          1. Lecky Legs FC
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Pedro isn't a differential anymore I'd say lots of people are bringing him for GW 14 and onwards because they can't afford Hazard (myself included) let's hope the FPL fortune me with a Yaya haul in the next few GW's 😉

  12. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    sims the new enabler

    hope he gets a good run

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

      What is his price?

      1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        4.5

    2. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Mate he's not even close to being nailed

  13. Brian (Not the Messiah)
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Are Grant and Pickford going to keep getting starts or are their days numbered?

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

      Pickford will, Motes has said as such. Only a matter if time for Butland to come back though.

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

        *Moyes

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

      Pickford is 1st choice.

      Grant will lose his place to Butland at some point. Don't know when

  14. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Allen + Lukaku > Siggy + Defoe confirmed.

    Fuchs > VVD + Deeney + Austin are my next planned transfers.

    Are either of them worth a hit or just wait and do them 1 week at a time?

    1. MTPockets
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Don't think so, but then not sure about earlier ones to be honest.

  15. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    10 of my players all play on Saturday next week

  16. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Barca losing 1-0

    They are all over the place

  17. YouReds
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Can't decide between Siggy and Pedro for a Coutinho replacement!

    1. Lecky Legs FC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Pedro always

    2. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy

    3. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy

  18. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone think Kane isent worth it, even with those fixtures? Dont think its worth ripping apart my team for him...

    1. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Not keen on him either. Won't be getting him in.

    2. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      When he goes

      He goes

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

      Can't have them all.

      I'm getting him though

    4. Jude Rooney
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Can't afford everyone so Kane sits out until I get an injury to one of my big hitters

    5. MTPockets
      9 years, 8 months ago

      If I had lukaku, but I don't.

  19. gawa11
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    My transfer can go 1 of 2 ways this week

    Out - kun / cou / luk
    In - kane/ costa / firm

    Or

    Out - fuchs / cou / luk
    In - kane / firm / 4.0 def

    Both options are a minus 8, I am 1.6 mil ranked so prepared to take hits
    Other defs are vertongen, alonso, holebas, amat
    Thoughts?

  20. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Please help;

    Coutinho >

    A) Mane
    B) KDB? (Already own Kun)

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have KDB and i'm contemplating getting rid!
      hold for now, chelsea next. Sanchez if you dont already own

    2. gawa11
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Mane as he is more assured of starts

      1. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers guys

  21. golden skulltula 69
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hi everyone,

    Lukaku and Barry: OUT
    Kane and de Roon: IN

    for -4 worth it?

    Thanks!!

  22. TerryVenables
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Tough spot.
    (A) 3-5-2
    Walcott---sigurdsson---firmino---hazard---mane
    kane---Costa---diamande

    (B) 4-3-3
    Walcott--sigurdsson---firmino---hazard---de roon
    Aguero---Kane/Costa

    1. TerryVenables
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      B also has Austin

  23. DantheManinaPan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Considering Meyler + Rondon --> Pedro + Anichebe for a -4...

    What do people think? Already done Coutinho to Siggy

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nah keep rondon for the next fixture

  24. 8ball
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    should I get in Pedro or Walcott for Coutinho

    Hazard, Siggy, Firmino, Allen
    Kane, Kun, Anichebe

    1. gawa11
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd go pedro

    2. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Walcott. Hazard is plenty Chelsea coverage.

  25. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    A- Austin and Sanchez
    B- Benteke & Sanchez
    C- Costa & Theo
    D- Kane and Theo
    E- Ibra & Theo

    Decisions decisions!

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A or D for me, assuming you'd have Hazard too

      1. The Red Devil
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yes, those two are my choices too, but which one?

  26. Kante Be Bothered
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    who will score more in the next few GWs

    A) Aguero Walcott
    or
    B) Kane Sanchez

  27. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    For those who don't have Kane, what's next GW's captaincy looking like? I'm thinking Aguero...

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Thinking Costa. 😉 Apologies as you're a City fan. 😛

      Pep will probably go 3 up front on Chelsea's back 3, so I reckon it will be a game of Chelsea on the counter. COsta territory.

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have Kane Costa Mane Sanchez Hazard 😉 I'll just roll a dice

  28. CarrollsPonytail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    1FT.

    Who is more essential to get rid of: Coutinho or Lukaku?

    1. gawa11
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Obviously the injured player

    2. Shake n Bake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Coutinho. he can't score any points if he isn't on the pitch. I'd get Siggy if you don't have him already.

  29. Manbatius
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I have made my FT Coutinho > Siggy.

    However I now see Stones is set to drop and he has been rubbish for me. Worth a -4 hit?

    if so
    A)Cedric
    B) Janmaat
    C)McAuley
    D) someone else at 5.0 or below, if below I will have cash to upgrade allen

    Team:
    Heaton
    Alonso Lovren Stones
    Hazard Sanchez Sigurdsson Allen
    Aguero Lukaku Austin

    Bench
    Pickford Kingsley Love McQueen (stop laughing McQueen got me a lofty point and will become a legend....)

  30. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    How does this plan look? (worth a -8 hit)

    Rashford > Kane
    Coutinho > Walcott
    Gundogan > Fer

    This will give me;

    Foster
    Rose - McAuley - Nyom
    Alexis - Hazard - Walcott - Allen
    Kun - (K)ane - Austin

    Subs; Pickford; Fer, Holebas, Kingsley.
