Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Bournemouth vs Chelsea

The day’s events draw to a close at the Vitality Stadium as leaders Chelsea bid to extend the gap at the top with Spurs breathing down their necks.

From a Fantasy perspective, Eden Hazard is now perhaps now the main draw in the Blues camp – he’s been acquired by over 94,000 FPL managers ahead of today’s deadline, while team-mate Diego Costa has been jettisoned from 103,000+ squads.

Costa is backed by more than 447,000 (10.1%) with the captaincy but has delivered just two goals in his last eight Gameweeks. Meanwhile, Hazard, for all his increase in popularity, has just a single goal from his last six away trips.

In defence, Chelsea have gone eight Gameweeks without delivering a clean sheet and will be tested severely by a lively Bournemouth attack on home turf.

Josh King is undoubtedly their key Fantasy asset – he’s produced five goals and an assist in his last five Gameweeks and 56,000+ have swooped for the Cherries midfielder ahead this evening’s encounter.

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

      They should be forced to answer for their doubts!

    Alonso to Walker was an astute move right enough.

    Wow what a chance for Alonso

    Miss

  6. Lizard Lips

    Huge chance Alonso missed.

    Reckon Alonso will get another. Basically playing as a striker

    1. diesel001

      Possible. Hazard and Pedro also looking dangerous

    Worst possible result from this game as someone who owns no player. Hazard, Costa, King, Alonso all scored tons of points.

    1. Guvnor

      Hahah I know right? My ML leader has Hazard Costa and Kante

    2. Holmes

      True that 🙁

    3. Bill Haverchuck

      Was 18 points ahead of the top 10k average before kick-off, now down to 6 points. Has been miserable to watch haha

    What a huge goal that was for my FPL season. 🙂

    Nearly Aoonso again! He's a machine!! FPL better keep him as a defender for next year. I'd pay 7.0, maybe 7.5.

    1. Over Midwicket

      Will 100% be classed as a milf next season

      1. Messiah Hazard

        Milf?

      2. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        He's not that good 😉

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I won't. CL will impact Chelsea.

      If David Luiz didn't take FKs, he'd probably have double digits for the season by now.

      He's by far Chelsea's best deadball specialist. Wish he'd take corners off Hazard/Pedro too...could be an OOP Christian Eriksen.

    Lol what is Costa doing??

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Getting a bunch of assists, why?

  12. TheTinman
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Get the fuchs in.

    On another note, when will Newcastle ever get a decent defender?

  13. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Someone just said Costa has been average? He's had a stinker 🙂

    1. Lawrø
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Set up two goals 😛

    2. Gnu

      A sclaff and a stumble, quality stuff Rover.

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I'll take them though as a farewell gift as he leaves to make way for Kane

  14. Bubz

  16. Stupendous

  17. TheTinman

    King and Alonso in the bonus would be beautiful

    Pedro YC. Donkey.

    1. WVA

      Omgggggggg

  19. Mic

    Costa 2 assists - one for getting kicked, one for skewing a shot.

    Such a creative maestro

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      hahahahah

  20. Lizard Lips

    heaton was 2bps away from 2 bonus points

  21. Arn De Gothia
    • 13 Years

    What a life saver, might get a small green now

  22. WVA

    Last time i took alonso out he scored, this game is so weird

  23. F4L
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    IS the Kun 3 bps locked in?

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

      Yes

  24. Sims
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Costa on 23 bps despite two assits

    Good. He's been awful

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Costa massively penalised by BAPS. His job is to hold the ball up and shoot. That is it. Not enough activity to get BAPS. If it was about goal scoring and assisting he would smash it.

  25. diesel001

    Sanchez, Alli, Eriksen, Sane, Sterling, Coutinho, Firmino, Mane, Son, Hazard - you can't have them all.

    1. faver
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      well you cant even have sanchez alli eriksen hazard and mane. its too hard too choose

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      7 years, 2 months ago

      Almost ideal for someone with Alonso Hazard and King

      A hazard goal and with Alonso assist to top it off please

      1. Les Bleus
