With the Spurs assets delivering in the early kick-off, we move our attention to six more encounters to seek out further returns.

Arsenal’s trip to Swansea City undoubtedly provides the key interest, with more than 700,000 (16.5%) FPL managers turning to Alexis Sanchez as their Gameweek 21 captain.

With Olivier Giroud earning more than 350,000 transfers ahead of today’s deadline, it’s fair to say that Fantasy managers will be willing Arsenal to follow Spurs’ lead and produce goals and points aplenty.

Paul Clement’s first home game in charge provides an unwanted x-factor, however. It remains to be seen if he can lift a Swans side that has shipped 23 goals at the Liberty Stadium, the worst home record in the Premier League.

Elsewhere, Sunderland’s Jermain Defoe is heavily backed ahead of a home encounter with Stoke City. Brought in by 266,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 21, more than any other FPL forward, Defoe has returned a goal or an assist in five of his last six Stadium of Light encounters.

Meanwhile, at the KCOM Stadium, a host of mid-price and budget assets go head to head with our focus on the likes of Robert Snodgrass, Junior Stanislas and Charlie Daniels.

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

    Want to get rid of Ake but cant afford anyone decent, thinking of shipping firmino to Llalana or Coutinho. Thoughts? I know havent played yet but need to do before price rises

  9. The Wise Owl
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Lord Heaton.

  10. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Need Alonso to stay quiet and concede tonight.

    Otherwise I will rage quit the game.

    Some FPL ghost has changed my team and put him last on the bench behind Pieters and Carrick.

    Meanwhile Lovren is in my first XI.

    Genuinely baffled by who this has happened.

    Alonso was still in the starting XI this morning and no-one else has access to my team.

    Go figure!

    1. MTPockets
      9 years, 6 months ago

      FPL ghost?

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        No idea as I said. Haven't been drunk either.

    2. IndyStarJack
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      You in a competitive mini league?

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah. Why?

        1. IndyStarJack
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Maybe got hacked

    3. Tansey
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Did you have a few too many drinks one of the nights by any chance

      Drunk transfers are praised and encouraged around these parts

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I'd be proud of that sort of thinking to be honest. Especially as a Liverpool fan 🙂 As it is I've no idea.

        1. XabiAlonso
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          0-0 Tomorow 😉

    4. Sanchit
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Same happened with my team.
      VVD last on the bench with Grabban starting.
      I don't know who did it :O

  11. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years

    Desperately need Heaton to hold on here.

    1. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. This. Please

  12. Back on the horse
    • 15 Years

    damn -played grant over heaton.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Why oh why?!

    2. Conte Cristo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Forster over Heaton

    3. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Sell Heaton if you are not going to play him at home:)

  13. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Worst fk ever ruins a Benteke assist. Fitting for his garbage performance.

  14. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    FTs yet?

  15. Sonic Huth
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Sell Costa for Lukaku? Already did Ake-Chambers

    1. sillyhilly69
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Hold for more news.

      1. Sonic Huth
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Was Ake to Chambers a right decision, btw?

  16. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Holebas > Ake, 3 GWs ago.

    What could possibly go wrong.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ake get recalled by Chelsea and not make the squad. Holebas to keep a cleansheet with decent fixtures to come.

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Ha.

        1. Ha.
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          I forgot to mention the goal Holebas will score next gameweek too

  17. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Origi to Gray didn't out as well as I thought it would.

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Origi to Wilson for me. Not good too.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      The classic cheap-mid price 3rd striker slot is cursed this year. Only get a handful of returns in a small window.

    3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Took a hit to get Giroud in, at least he's scoring points. Sick of the 6-7M 3rd striker conundrum, either get Defoe or Lukaku or downgrade for 3-5-2

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

      Origi to Giroud for a hit. Meh...

  18. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Oh.. Heaton

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

    Who needs to go first?

    A. Cedric
    B. Pieters
    C. Benteke

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      C 100%. He'll never score again.

    2. sillyhilly69
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      A.

      He's been useless for the past 6/7 GWs

  20. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Not worrying about goalkeepers and leaving Heaton in all season has worked out nicely...

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Makes next season very easy, Heaton and a 4.0. FPL gold.

    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Burnley could win 8-0 and Heaton would still get the 3 Bonus
