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.

      Sanchez and Vardy.

    2. Flynny

      Lose vardy or lukaku.....and siggy

    40 from 4 (captain played)
    2 points from 2 players off bench giving be 42

    Decent.

      Below average

      Red arrow I am afraid

    2. diesel001

      About average. Top 10K 47 pts from 6 players post-BAPS

  4. La Roja

    7 years, 2 months ago

    Bavies Costa ➡ Stephens Kane -4

    I have exact cash but not sure if it's worth it.

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Nah. What's your team? Surely there's other ways.

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Grant
        Bavies Bailly Olsson
        Sanchez Eriksen Alli Zaha
        Kun Costa Lukaku

        Jaku McAuley Hojbjerg Amat

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Bailly and Costa. At least Bavies is nailed for now.

            • 9 Years

            that'd be 4 Spurs..

    Is Kane price locked?

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

      No! Looking like rising tonight too.

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Not clear. Football Fix site seems to think locked but fpl stats not!? Anyone know definitive answer?

  6. Pariße
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Morata, Asensio and James look alike.
    Ibe, King and Mousett look alike.

    1. Pariße
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Now half ban me for the day, please. This is ridiculous.

  7. Sandy Ravage

    62 with DDG, Valencia, Sanchez, Vardy & Lukaku to come helps as I'm playing catch up in all my ML

    How about Kane, did he look good today?

    1. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      no, i dont know what game people were watching

    2. Live Lad
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      He didn't look sharp.

  10. Viper
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    No bps for Alonso is annoying when he got the official man of the match, thought he might have been on for 1/2

    1. Pariße
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      These are final? 🙁

      1. Viper
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        He doesn't look close enough to jump up even if it isn't finalised 🙁

        1. Pariße
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah...it looked he was sure to get at least 1 at the end of the game.

    Tadic finally gets an attacking return and now his price is dropping 😀

    Repost
    Replace who of Siggy/Llorente/Sterling? Higher priority? 1.1 itb

  13. Liastro ⭐️
    • 12 Years

    I assume those taking out B Davies need the extra Spurs spot for Kane?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Correct in my case

    2. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Probably. My plan was to bring in Davies before this GW but changed my mind when I read that Kane is back. I have Eriksen and Alli.

  14. Jonny Sutt
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone transfering Davies in for walker to free up cash?

  15. threeputt
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    so we are likely to find out all of the remaining rescheduled matches very shortly ? I have a wc, triple captain & bench boost still available, are we expecting more than one double gameweek ?

  16. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    I have Ibra and Lukaku

    Tempted to do a bit of striker juggling.

    GW33 - Ibra to Kane
    GW34 - Lukaku to Ibra

    Thoughts?

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

      Like it.

      Kane is explosive. Lukaku has a great fixture. Then Ibra has DGW

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 15 Years

      That is exactly what I'm just looking at now Andy. Literally this minute

    3. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Not for me, we don't have enough FTs left to fool around

    4. nkhoughton
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Lukaku to kane

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        When he has Burnley next?

    5. Pariße
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Not a bad plan actually. Looks good.

  17. ronty
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Kun to Kane next week seems ideal..

    Will probably get him back on WC

  18. nkhoughton
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Heaton Robles
    Alonso Nyom Davies Chambers Pennington
    Alexis Alli Coutiniho Siggy King
    Kun Vardy Crouch

    0.1 shy of Vardy to kane
    0.2 shy of siggy and kun to Kane and Hazard

    What do you suggest?

  19. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Want to get Kane, but would mean getting Lukaku out for a hit, surely not worth it when he has Burnley at home, get him in week after for free?

  20. AA33
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Do we think Son will keep his place in the starting XI despite Kane being back? Or atleast for the next few GWKs?

    1. Jigger & Pony
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      He's keeping it for next week at least

    2. Mark-O
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yes and no with FA cup semis and gw34 closely packed

    3. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, he was a winger today so Kane shouldn't threaten his gametime there

    4. nkhoughton
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  21. mojoindojo

    A. Valencia (CHE)

    1. dunas_dog

  22. Mark-O
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Which is better?

    A. 2 mid (Alli, Son) + 1 fw (Kane)
    B. 1 def (Davies) + 1 mid (Alli) + 1 fw (Kane)

    1. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      A

  23. Jigger & Pony
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Is Yoshida the best cheap def option? Under 4.5m.

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

      Yes

  24. D0GS B0110XS FC
    • 11 Years

    kun to kane or lukaku to kane keeping kun?

  25. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    All out attack!

    Grant

    Valencia Davies

    Zaha Walcott Siggy Alli Son

    Agüero Vardy Lukaku

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Play Heaton over Grant?

      Play Brunt/Yoshida over Valencia?

    2. Jigger & Pony
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Who ate the benched defenders?

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Yo Momma.

  26. istanbul05
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Is Kun to Kane the obvious move here??

    2FTs and .1mITB

    Jaku, Grant,
    Alonso, Valencia, Davies, Evans, Amat,
    Sanchez, Alli, Cout, Siggy, Fletcher,
    Kun, Kaku, Llorente.

    Thanks

  27. sergioaguero67

    Please help.

    1. Live Lad
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Yes! He will start in this form.

    2. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  28. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    I really am not sure who to bench now after playing Llorente over King. King vs Spurs, Llorente vs Watford.

    Please, pleaseee help.

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      King should be contained by Spurs so....Llorente...but, Id ship him out actually.

      1. Live Lad
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Have Siggy too. So, llorente to Negredo? Tempted to do Siggy to DeRoon and make king my 4th mid and play him every game.

  29. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Lukaku (BUR) to Kane (BOU) next week or not?!
    Tough decision...

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

      No,

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

    Won my cup tie because I played King last week, will lose this week because I benched him. 😐
