After Zlatan Ibrahimovic delivered a goal and assist for his 29% owners in United’s 3-0 stroll at the Stadium of Light, we now make our way to Goodison Park as two of the most in-form frontmen in the top-flight go head-to-head.

Everton’s Romelu Lukaku looks to score for the seventh successive home match, having struck ten times in the previous six in front of his own supporters.

Over 10% of Fantasy Premier League managers have pinned their captaincy hopes on the Belgian, making him the fourth most popular pick for the Gameweek.

Jamie Vardy rolls up on the back of five goals and a pair of assists in the last five Gameweeks.

Backed by over 16% of FPL managers, the Leicester City frontman faces a tough task against a defence with five clean sheets in their last six home fixtures.

Yet with the Toffees hit hard by injuries and suspension at the back, Craig Shakespeare’s side will fancy their chances of claiming a sixth straight league win since the departure of Claudio Ranieri.

In saying that, it remains to be seen whether the decision to bench Riyad Mahrez will backfire, with the Foxes manager clearly having one eye on the midweek Champions League encounter with Atletico Madrid.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    The struggle of trying to get a good team on a WC with Ibra Kane Lukaku

      And Sanchez

    There goes my OR

    Uuurgh
    Owning Ibra and Lukaku.
    And now really don't know who to rid for Kane. Or if I should get rid of 1 at all?

    1. Sᴄʜᴜ̈RRʟᴇ ⓝ
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Keep both

      1. InSaneMan-e
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Looks like it
        But Kane could go bonkers vs Bournemouth

    2. *sigh*
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I got rid of Lukaku. Thinking now best to wait until Ibra plays his extra dgw then get rid for Kane (gw35). Kaku has a very good gw 37 so I suppose then its down to do bet against Lukaku x1 (easy fixture) or Ibra x2 (may be rested for Europe) ? You need Kane though eventually.

      1. InSaneMan-e
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        I do have wc so I'm not bothered about 37
        The problem is Kane has bou at H next whilst zlats has that awful fixture.

        1. *sigh*
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          If the rest of your team is fine then why don't you do a bit of tooing and frowing?

    Burnley and West Ham next. Kaku loves West Ham. Amazing record.

  12. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    What a game. 23 minutes gone

  13. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Why are Everton never attacking down the left side? Baines rarely leaves his own half of the pitch

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      They need to replace him, he's past it

  14. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Fabulous cross by Barkley.

  15. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    In order to get Kane, which one would you ditch between Davies, Eriksen, Alli?
    (feel like it'll be Davies even if I'd like to have a Tottenham defender)

  16. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    should be 2 more goals before HT at this rate

  17. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Oh well sorry I doubted you Lukaku

  18. Mark-O
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    It's only 22' and the match is 2-2

    1. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      For Lukaku to score goal number 22....

  19. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Baines assist? 🙂

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Barkley

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      no

    3. Yellin' in my Ear
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Barkley

    4. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      oh dear

  20. Sess!
    • 15 Years

    Aguero Lukaku Ibra

    Going to be tough fithing Kane in. Do I have the balls to leave Kane one more week and then ditch Lukaku or just get Kane now?

    1. Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Ditch Ibra for Kane and get in Ibra for Lukaku next week

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        I see the logic but I hate short term moves like that

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Going without Kane is a ridiculous idea. You're ridiculous!

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Well yeah...That's my point. It's a tough conundrum though.

        1. Deulofail
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          I actually don't think it's ridiculous. I'm just giving you what you'd give others for considering options.

    3. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I'd do Aguero to Kane if I were you

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Hmm, could be way to go

    4. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Its Aguero to Kane or stick.

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Scored in 5 out of last 6 though. It might make sense though as Lukaku would involve a hit and that doesn't make sense when they're at home to Burnley.

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Aguero is in form, they all are. Its nice to save 1,5 on Kane though. Agueros fixtures are worse than Lukaku and Kane's as well.

  21. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Now we're talking. Vardy, your turn.

  22. Deulofail
    • 10 Years

    Said he was hanging out in the box, biding his time

  23. twoplustwo

    Hrm Vardy Lukaku Ibra front line looking alright at the moment

  24. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Luuuukaaaakuuu scores

  25. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    If only Barkley passed like that more often. Cross was quality...

  26. PvA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    3 - Lukaku, Slimani (27)
    1 - Albrighton (24)

    1. Yellin' in my Ear
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Bit early. Baines will get all three bonus (hopefully)

  27. L'Aeroplanino
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    LUKAAAAAAAAAA

  28. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years

    Baines please do something for once

  29. martyhan
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    A. Costa and Dann to Kane and Yoshida
    B. Vardy and Dann to Kane and holgate
    C. Just Dann to yoshida or Gibson cause i have Alli and Erickson

    I asked earlier re Ibra and I'll ask again.

    Will owning Lukaku but not captaining have a good or bad influence on my rank?
