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.

    Anyone think Giroud will now start?

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Don't see what has changed to be honest

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I don't see why now all of a sudden.

    3. Demí
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      He will start a game or two over the next couple months,yes. Tonight hasn't changed anything though, just reinforced Giroud ability to impact from the bench

    4. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Sanchez is arguably the best striker in the league at the moment.

  2. Chicken-Mandy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Gone from 16k to 450k in 7 game weeks. I am in desperate need of help, what to do with this team? 1ft but open to throwing a few hits at it

    Heaton Pickford
    Alonso holebas Evans Pieters Amat
    Hazard firmino siggy shaqiri Capoue

      No Arsenal seems the biggest issue.

    2. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Deeney to Austin is an obvious one i'd say.

    3. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Shaqiri&Deeney out

    4. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Deeney & Shaqiri -> Austin & Walcott

    5. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Don't panic, it looks decent. Shaqiri and Deeney are the obvious red flags and there's a lack of Arsenal. Anything in the bank?

    6. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Think about shipping Shaqiri and Deeney out, the rest are fine for now.

      Walcott and Defoe in?

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Or Austin over Defoe?

        1. Chicken-Mandy
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Thanks for all the advice. I actually sold Sanchez last week for hazard so that haul today was frustrating. Think Shaq and Deeney to Austin and Walcott is on the cards. I watched the Arsenal game today and Walcott looked awful so really unsure what to do

    7. SuperMario
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wow, thats tough to take, but no reason you can't pull it back..

      Some food for thought:
      Deeney --> Austin
      Shaquiri --> Walcott
      Evans --> Friend

    Holebas flagged, what's the story there??

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Got a knock and came off. Didnt look too bad.

    2. the axolotl
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      took a knock, didn't really look serious though. was taken off as much for tactical reasons as anything else i think

      1. Mr. Funny Name
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Sound, cheers lads

  5. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Hazard -> Sanchez for -4?

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I woild

    2. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Get both

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I can't.

        1. twoplustwo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Those two and Kun for me are a close to essential as it gets

    3. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No, better have both. Im getting Hazard soon, have Sanchez

    4. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No

  6. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    9 years, 4 months ago

    Someone asked earlier who the worst winger in the league is. I present to you Mr. Jesse Lingard.

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsey on the wing makes Lingard look like Garrincha.

    2. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Ibe was so much better at Derby. Cant believe he isn't getting in the muff team

    3. shirtless

      Fa cup winner. Show us your medals! 🙂

  7. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Cout, Haz and Luk to Kane, Sanchez and Pedro done.

    I'm sorry Alex, I'll never doubt you again.

    Minus 8 though, but like my team besides Williams who can go next week.

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Doesn't look too bad!

    2. E25
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      You've seen Hazard's fixtures after next week right?

  8. Sims

  9. Jar Jar Winks

  15. Mull

    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    How do you lot still own Ibra?

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Most got him this week

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      People brought him in this week for some reason.

      1. Mull
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        His form and fixtures are both mediocre. I don't get why you'd go near him!

  16. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Aguero to Ibra paying off dividends. Let's get one more!

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      U have to be joking

    2. Paganoi
      • 11 Years

    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    A) Aguero>Kane, Coutinho>Sanchez
    B) Coutinho>Siggy, Redmond>Walcott, Tekkers>Austin
    C) Coutinho>Siggy, Redmond>Hojbjerg, Tekkers>Kane

  19. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Old man Ibrah scored. Probably took him 300 shots

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wasn't a shot though

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

    4 players playing today Sanchez,Ibra and Austin(+Williams)...looking good.

  22. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Yes Zlatan(c) the fight back is on 🙂

  23. MartialMatas
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Any suggestions?

    Heaton Pickford
    Fuchs Lovren Holebas Pieters Amat
    Sanchez Hazard Coutinho! Firmino Walcott
    Aguero Austin W.Keane!

    2FT 0.3ITB

    Coutinho and Will Keane injured. Fuchs not looking worth the money.

    I'm interested in getting Kane in but im not sure of the best route

    Prepared to take a hit if I need too

  24. kirwy
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Deeney → Kane
    Arnautovic → Phillips
    Walcott → Redmond

    –4. Worth it?

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Not for me....

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      West Brom's fixtures are dire

    3. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      nope

    4. kirwy
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      My alternative is Deeney → Negredo (C) 😀

  25. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Ibra(c) and Austin. Come on Lukaku I need you too match Kun!

  26. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Coutinho > Walcott for free?

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      yep

    2. Kroosin'
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      If you have no Arsenal coverage. But expect rotations from Wenger in December.

  27. Ryan Naysmith
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    ibra captainers, happy for you.

  28. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Casuals win again, rank gets shat on again.

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      *vomits

  29. The Hound
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    This gw has been the absolute worst in 7 years of playing fpl. I did aguero, sanchez and callum wilson to kane, Costa and coutinho -8. This moment of Friday night stupidity has cost me 32 points. I'd like to dedicate this event to pep guardiola for making it possible, with his press conference. Never before have I not wanted to play anymore.

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Maybe just be patient???

    2. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Chin up...Kane and Costa will pay off by new year in all likelihood.

      Sanchez coming back to life is starting to worry me a bit though...

  30. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Pickford Heaton
    Clyne Evans Vertonghen Pieters Amat
    Firmino Capoue Coutinho Arnoutavic Capoue
    Kane Giroud Aguero

    1 FT & 0 ITB

    So, where do I start with my transfer?

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Coutinho to Siggy

      Use the ~1.5m to upgrade Arnie next week. Pedro, Walcott, Alli, Eriksen being the most likely targets if your budget will stretch
