Gameweek 15 eases its way into our weekends via a rather tepid fixture from a Fantasy Football perspective, with assets from both Watford and Everton slipping from the radar of late.

Romelu Lukaku has regressed to fire just a single goal in his last six Gameweeks, restoring his “unreliable” tag and ensuring that he has been evacuated from thousands of Fantasy Premier League squads over the last month.

Equally, we’ve fallen out with Watford’s early risers – the likes of Etienne Capoue, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas showed such promise but have faded badly in recent Gameweeks.

With expectations kept low, we are likely to consider this first fixture as a Scouting mission, an encounter to be used to weigh up and assess whether the aforementioned players can return to favour.

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

    Half of the site cheering on a useless Watford defender. The charm of FPL.

      I've benched him on an AoA 🙁

      1. Chris_White

        Good for you

        Clever

    holebas owners expecting attacking returns???

    1. dhamphiir
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      No

  5. Sauzée
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Why is Holebas on set pieces? Some woeful crosses so far

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Classid FF bandwagon after his 15 pointer. We all got sucked in - me included. He's drivel. Cue a 25 metre shot into the top corner.

  6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    9 years, 2 months ago

    Play like this and they are getting smashed by city midweek

    1. Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      KDB will be a popular transfer target after tonight

  7. Vatroslav
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I forgot that I actually have three players from this game

  8. Jacket Potato
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone else wondering why they got Holebas in all thos weeks ago, wash of space.

    1. Jacket Potato
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Waste *

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Nobody was wondering when he smashed his goal in tbf 😉

      1. Jacket Potato
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        True, seems a long time ago now.

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      When he was a wing back he was good as he was attacking more

      He is a terrible defender though with a bad discipline record

    4. Mavric Marco
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I was happy with my 15pts at the time 😉

      1. FPLtfs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Saved my gw 😉

    5. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      2 goals, 1 assist and 3 clean sheets in a season of clean sheet carnage for just 4.5...

      1. Jacket Potato
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Better options in my opinion, the dogs had his day

        1. Alnair
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Right now? Sure, but at the time he was still a good pick.

  9. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Very surprised by Holebad ownership here

    Personally I put it down to the scouts' over the top reaction to his goal because they were bigging him up prior to that.... Long range goals actually aren't that good of an indicator of attacking potential

    Saw one of the scout advise someone to get him for a hit because he was "essential" the following week

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Also highly owned in the top 10k. Probably because of his positional in the points table a few week ago was good

    2. The Fantastic Mr Fox
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      That's like really long Hindsight. At the time watford had kept 3 cs, he was 4.5 or less and on freekicks with very few teams getting CS. It was a reasonable decision at that time

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yes it was...I didn't say he was a bad pick. Actually I even own him...but the reaction was highly surprising after that..especially telling people to take hit to get him in sort of stuff

    3. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Cheap players need to be purchased.

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I agree

    4. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Watford had a great run of fixtures during which he returned a good haul of points.

  10. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Why are Giroud/Perez 8/13 to score anytime and Sánchez is 8/11?

    1. TooDifficuIt
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      because sanchez is more likely to score than these two

      1. 1966 was a great year for E…
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        8/13 is shorter than 8/11.

    2. 1966 was a great year for E…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I suppose that if they play, they're definitely up top, whereas Sanchez could possibly play on the left or right

  11. Sauzée
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Okaka occasionally looks like a player. He was a wonderkid on FM 😆

    1. FPLtfs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Still is 😀

      1. Sauzée
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        😆 what a finish

    2. A.T
      • 15 Years

      Timing

  12. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Clyne > Walker?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Before Boro?

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Spurs have Hull & Burnley at home next

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Nothing else need doing? Bit of a luxury transfer imo.

          1. Sandy Ravage
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            think I need to double up on Spurs players and my only midfield option is Son.

  13. Arceus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Watford is hopeless

    1. Mavric Marco
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Watford 'are' hopeless 😉

    2. Count of Monte Hristo

    Capo is useless. Can't believe I didn't take a hit to get rid of Austin.

    Looking to offload Austin and Fuchs this week, can't wait.

    Popular combos for 12.2mil?

    Thinking:

    a) Valencia and Iheanacho
    B) Ake and Defoe

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      B for me.

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      can't have a break to sell him... always on bench.
