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.

    What a Saturday!

      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Agreed but usually after a good Saturday I have nightmare Sunday...ibrah kaku Valencia and Sanchez to play

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        With those players though its likely not to be a disastrous weekend even if they dont perform

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

          True mate.

      Show a bit of humility and class, please.

      Don't be smug.

        No thanks.

          Think of people with low scores before you start strutting about your flakey Son points.

            I'll think of them when Im facing hundreds of people with my bad score next week streaming or on the scoutcast.

            For now Ive had a good week so far and I'll enjoy it.

            If you don't like it just ignore my posts on here and unfollow me on Twitter. You'll likely enjoy yourself a lot more.

              I'm pleased for you, Andy. Fair play. For all you give to the FFS and FPL community, you certainly deserve a cracking gameweek.

              Sorry for being a d*ck.

            • 15 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            I wasn't talking to you ? . I was talking to Syd . He's mentioned it a couple of times and I'm only having a bit of fun with him

            1. andy85wsm

              • 15 Years

    7. Lawrø
      • 14 Years

      Decent, a little scared about tomorrow and Monday though!

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Which big hitters dont you own for remaining games?

        1. Lawrø
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Ibra, Vardy and Valencia

          1. andy85wsm
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            No Vardy here either. Hoping Everton can do the business.

  2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    How did kane look today please? Missed the game

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Dangerous

    2. MR SUNSHINE
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Hit the bar at the end of the match. Scary to go without him imo

    3. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Didnt look too rusty and played well.

      A must for me next week I think

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Me too...have to lose kaku or Ibrah.. big decision

  3. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Anyone else who benched/transfered out Alonso this week?

    I had a good bench so decided to play Baines instead of Alonso, because I thought that Bournemouth should score...

    1. MR SUNSHINE
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      To be fair mate you were justified. Alonso's form was terrible going into this game. When they conceded I was close to rage transferring (yosh and Gibson on my bench)

  4. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    45 with 4 left to go; seems a bit below average on here tbh

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      56 with 4 if king gets 2bp. I had no Kun so consider myself very lucky

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        I didn't see the City game? Was Kun unlucky not to score again?

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          He had a quiet first half then played pin ball when he shot and it hit 2 defenders. Kun was very lucky today.

  5. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Will Walker start next week?

    1. william prunier
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Yes

      1. Jimmers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Not necessarily - Trippier was very good today

    2. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Don't care he's out for me to fund Kane.

  6. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    A) Carroll + Siggy + Coleman ---> Kane + Hojberg + Holdgate (-4)

    B) Carroll + Vardy ---> Kane + 5.0 md

    1. william prunier
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Neither, think again

  7. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Currently on for 10 BPS (non doubled for captaincy)

  8. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    What an ugly team Sheffield Wednesday are.

    Hope they get to the playoff final and lose

  9. Pocky
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Great day for me 65 (or 66 if Alonso sneaks bonus) De Gea Valencia Sanchez Lukaku to go & King on the bench! £75 win on the National & a free leg of lamb from the boss at work!

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Nice one

      You can keep the lamb though.. ugh

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      You jammy swine!

      Wish my boss would give me a leg of lamb.

  10. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    If only Siggy got returns it would of been a full house 🙁

  11. itwaswritten
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Kinda hope Valencia get rested for DGWs.

  12. Barcelinda
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Someone mentioned Vardy may not play? Any links or more info?

    Thanks

    1. Ben the Mee
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Champs league midweek means there's a strong chance of rest/rotation from the former Tinkerman

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

      Just looked at the stats for the game:

      The Final BAP is definitely going to go to Azpilicueta

    3. AA33
        9 years, 2 days ago

        SON OWNERS UNITE!!!

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Cancelled my Siggy to son move when i heard kane was back..annoying

          1. My Name Is Prince
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            It will pay off in the long-run

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Still waiting on the assist news 🙂

          1. Lawrø
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            Never in a million years!

          2. My Name Is Prince
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            It clearly wasn't an assist mate 😀

            1. andy85wsm
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 2 days ago

              Ha! I know but given they're takin so long one can dream 🙂

      • Waynoo
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        nightmare day for me

        1. Speédy
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          +1

      • My Name Is Prince
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Who to get rid in order to get Kane?

        Alli - Eriksen - Davies

        Has to be Davies, right, as Rose will eventually be back... If so, which Boro def to get for him? Is Ayala nailed?

        1. MR SUNSHINE
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Davies. More upside with the others

        2. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          In the same boat. Probably gonna have to part ways with Bavies (though I don't want to)

          Gibson the most nailed Middlesbrough defender. I'm gonna have to go for Barragan though I think...need funds to do Lukaku -> Kane.

      • HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Who to sell?
        A - Aguero
        B - Costa

        1. My Name Is Prince
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          B

        2. andy85wsm
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Costa for me

          1. HVT
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            It's for Kane, other will prob go to Ibra in time anyway

      • Ninja Škrtel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        so its 3 baps for Kun?

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Ridiculous

        2. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Yes

        3. My Name Is Prince
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Delicious

        4. GertJan
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          And six for those who captained him! 😀

      • Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        I got points from my defence for a change

        Valdes - Bertrand - Alonso

        Valencia still to play

      • F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        who wins:

        A - Ibra and Valencia
        or
        B - Baines + 9?

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

          A

      • Pariße
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        All Real Madrid attackers look alike.

      • Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        How come people have so many remaining??

        Only 2 here. Valencia is the only other player I can think of that most will still have left to play

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          lol

        2. sunzip14
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Sanchez, Ibra, Lukaku, Valencia, Zaha, Holgate to go. 40pts currently.

        3. andy85wsm
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Theres still some pretty big hitters to go who are owned by many. Lukaku, Sanchez, Valencia.

        4. Webbinho
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Lukaku and Sanchez also popular

      • FPL Maldini
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Does anyone know why Negredo didn't play?

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Can't score

        2. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Boro love a 0-0. Hence why Gestede played!

      • sunzip14
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Hoping for a Holgate/Valencia clean sheet or a no show! Have Yoshida 9 pts staring!!!

      • Stupendous
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Is Kun to Kane going to be popular around here?

        Hard to keep justifying no double figure returns for a 13m player, especially when Jesus will return soon.

        It's the easiest way to get in Kane without destroying my team. Also my other striker is Lukaku and his high ownership means I'm reluctant to sell.

        1. My Name Is Prince
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Yes, I can afford Lukaku --> Ibra for GW34 with Kane as well, but not with Kun, a no-brainer really

        2. Whazza
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Yeah.. Will see how Ibra does tomorrow though, 2 DGWs coming up

        3. andy85wsm
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Very popular I'd say.

      • applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        azpi will get the 1 bonus

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          Whyy? Give it to Alonso he deserves it for the fk

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

          Yes alonso and Costa both dispossessed a lot

      • F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Ibra plz save me; kind regards F4L

      • ncs3010
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Hoorah for Son, Alli, Aguero and Alonso owners 😀

      • Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Currently on 60 (-4) with only Walcott and Lukaku to go.

        Need Valencia and Sanchez to blank to get a green arrow I think

      • The Yorkshire Pirlo
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Had a mareeee!! And I thought my team looked alright. Sold Alonso and King this week.

        Heaton
        Valencia/Walker/Brunt
        Sanchez/Alli/Eriksen/Sane/Zaha
        Ibra/Lukaku
