A dramatic Saturday comes to its conclusion as West Ham United take on Arsenal at the London Stadium.

All eyes are on the Gunners’ Alexis Sanchez as he looks for a fourth double-figure haul on the road.

Having scored twice against Bournemouth last week, the Chilean headed into Gameweek 14 just one point off the top of the Fantasy Premier League standings.

An injury to Philippe Coutinho has prompted new interest in Theo Walcott – the wide man earned more transfers in than any player last week after notching his sixth of the season against Eddie Howe’s side.

The search for a new midfielder means we’ll also be monitoring the display of Dimitri Payet, with the Hammers’ schedule taking a turn for the better from Gameweek 16 onwards.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Worth it for -12 points?

    A) VVD, Firmino, Allen, Aguero
    B) Cedric, Eriksen, Ozil, Costa

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

      No.

    2. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      VVD, Firmino too good to get rid of as part of a 12 pointer.

      Aguero + Allen to Costa + another, perhaps?

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

        Agreed

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

      I wanted A for this GW but my budget allowed me C.
      A if you have the budget

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

    Just did Aguero to Costa and Lukaku to Kane for free.

    Foster
    Vertonghen Cedric Holebas
    Sanchez Hazard Firmino Zaha
    Kane Costa Austin

    Pickford Capoue Friend Wilson

  4. Feed tha Sheep

    Best move?
    A. Agureo > Costa (leave Sanchez until following week)
    B. Agureo Walcott & Williams >
    Costa Sanchez & 4.1 (-8)
    C. Agureo & Walcott > Defoe & Sanchez (-4)

    1. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A or C !

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

    GW11. Was pondering back and forth between Fuchs and Alonso as Valencia's replacement. Since then:

    Fuchs: 1 0 0 0 = 0.25 PPG
    Alonso: 13 6 2 7 = 7 PPG

    You can guess which one I ended up with 🙂

  6. Klip Klopp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Would you do
    Allen + Kosclieny + Austin --> Sanchez + Alonso + Anichebe for a -4?
    Or leave the Kosclieny move for now and just take a -4?

  7. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Worth a -8??

    Wally ---> Alexis
    Evans/Holebas ---> Ake

    Leaving me with:
    Pick Jaku
    Walker Alonso Holebas Ake Amat
    Sanchez Hazard Firmino Siggy Fletcher
    Costa Kane Austin

    9 years, 8 months ago

    how can i check if that aguero drop will affect my tv? i never truly understand this system. is it drops 0,1 from value every 0,2 drop or else?

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

      Aye, that's it.

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

        So if i get aguero back at gw6 for 13.0 and now he's going to drop from 13.1 back to 13.0 tonight i wont lose sweet 10 pennies?

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

          Yeah. If you got him at 13.0 his first drop won't affect you. The one after will.

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

            cheers =]

        2. Chelsea Dagger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Your tv will go down by .1 if you sell now, as your sale value is only 13.0. If you purchased at 13.0, and he was at 13.2, your sale value would be $13.1. Hope that makes sense

        3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Correct. In both cases you'd sell for 13.0

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

            Thanks m8

    2. Sideways Backwards
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      You gain 0.1 for every 0.2 they rise above your purchase price.
      If they're 0.3 above, you only get 0.1 etc

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

      On the transfers tab, click on "list view" instead of "pitch view", and you'll see the various prices.

    4. faver

      thanks guys

    How much TV does one have to realistically have to afford all of Costa, Kane, Sanchez, Hazard and Firmino? Possible?

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

      Easily.

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    7. Trigg ⭐️

    10. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 9 Years

      I had them all
      even had kun in place of Kane 🙂 at the start of the gameweek

    11. FPLtfs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Depends on when you purchased them..

  17. Whats the Mata?
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Kun - Kane
    Wally - Sanchez
    Walker - Cedric OR Wilson - Anichebe(to fund the Sanchez transfer)
    For a -8
    Yay or Nay??

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

    After today, can we we put to bed the idea that Walcott can cover Sanchez's points?

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

      The concept of cover is idiotic.

    2. Ibracadabra
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      it's not about cover, it's about value / points per game. those who benefitted from walcott early season goalscoring run at 3m+ cheaper than sanchez will be happy. those who captained sanchez today will be happy. two different concepts.

  19. Patty
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Kane or Costa?

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

      Both if possible

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

    Is there any easing why I shouldn't do Kun to Costa tonight??...thanks

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      maybe Costa flag

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

      Only reason is possible injuries.

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

        Costa is apparently not injured

        And Kun needs to go....

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

          I meant possible future injuries before deadline.

    3. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Any reason...
