Events continue with a slate of five three o’clock kick-offs which – for once – feature the big sides and some major Fantasy talent.

Three of the top four captains are on show this afternoon.

Harry Kane heads into a trip to Goodison Park backed as the captain by 537,000 (11.6%) having blanked in his opening three Gameweeks, returning just four points.

The Spurs striker has been sold by 192,000+ ahead of today’s deadline – second only to Man City’s Kevin De Bruyne who has just returned two assists to punish the naysayers; the scene is set for Kane to follow suit.

Elsewhere Arsenal’s Alexandre Lacazette earns a recall to Arsene Wenger’s starting line-up to face Bournemouth. He was sold by 136,000+ ahead of today’s clash but has been captained by 233,000, some 34% of his overall ownership.

Alvaro Morata is the other big asset in action.

He was acquired by 345,000+ prior to today’s deadline and claims over 213,000 armbands for Chelsea’s meeting with Leicester City.

Elsewhere, Ahmed Hegazi retains his start for West Brom at Brighton, despite Jonny Evans’ recall to the Baggies’ XI. The Egyptian was bought by 237,000+ ahead of Gameweek 4 and has been snapped up by over a million managers this season – more than any other player.

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

    Is Bavies safe when Rose is back?

      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Yes, the way he is playing

    2. Rafiki
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      No. Rose isn't back yet

          It doesn't matta. It's in dee past!

      No chance. Rose is a beast.

  2. Rafiki

    Yoshida and mane out for Haz and mee/4.5 for -4?

    1. Lovren an elevator
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Yoshida was probably only dropped cos he came back from Japan? Long term it should be hoedt and VVD though so why not

  3. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    26 pts with Mee, Jones, Naughton, Mkhi and Lukaku to play.

    Not good!

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Better than me

    Those that havent wildcarded, when do you plan to? GW 6 looks good to me.

    1. Turbolag
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Second international break

      1. dhamphiir
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        This

      2. _figu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        Yup, that was my original plan as well. I hope I can hold until then.

    2. Sánchez
      • 14 Years

      When it seems needed

    3. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Not sure yet. GW6 is an option as I have Foster and Phillips. Team is in good shape, Yoshida being the only player needs to be moved.

    Bottomed

    Early thoughts on this -4?

    Mane*, Richarlison, Chica -> Kane(c), Brady, Groß

    1. Delhidynamo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      No

    2. S.Kuqi
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Do it.

  6. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Kane (58)
    Davies (53)
    Trippier (39)

    After change.

    1. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Davies at 5.6 outscoring a 12.4 striker 😀

  7. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Considering a -4 to fix my defence...

    It looks like this:

    Kolasinac - Kompany** - Hegazi**- Bertrand - Rosenior

    I'm thinking about bringing in Bavies for Hegazi but i'm 0.1m short, so taking out Kompany (for Jones?) will help the funds

    (My formation is 4-4-2)

    1. billnats
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Decent... Spurs good fortnight of fixtures. Hegazi is done.

  8. TheTinman
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    31pts
    Elliott, Naughton, Ritchie, Lukaku (c) to go.

    A 'meh' week

  9. the snazzy viking
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Got no replies last page 🙁

    Should I wildcard this team?

    Foster / Myhill
    Valencia Stephens Daniels / Suttner Hunemeier
    Mane Pogba Ramsey Ritchie / Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Gabbiadini

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Looks strong on paper. Who would you get in?

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        Not sure but I know who I'd get out

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      depends who you want to get in for Gabbiadini/Mane

  10. billnats
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Currently: Salah, Lukaku, Ayew
    Thinking: Atsu, Morata, Jesus

    Minus 4 but Klopp's rotation is doing my head in. Salah buzzin and protected once game was out of sight. Started on bench in GW2 as well.

    Thoughts?

    To those who had the balls to capt Kane away to Everton today after 3 blanks in a row, I salute you.
    You're fecking mental, but I salute you.

    1. Sánchez
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      I done it but partly out of lack of options. When no one looks safe, just go Kane

    2. billnats
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      After 3 weeks of blanks, I finally bit the bullet and went Lukaku.... I will know in a couple hours how I feel about that.

      On the other hand, my draft transaction was Welbeck out for Joselu...

    3. OldBenKenobi
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      I agree! Was close to doing it but decided on a 1 week punt on Lacazette. Fair play to them but not the "ghost teams" with him lol 😉

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        I have Lacazette and Jesus but I captained Kane and gave Alonso Vice! 😀

    4. FP El Wonky
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Hahaha finally captain Kane had to give me some joy! He owed it to all of us!

  12. Professor Abel X
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Can anyone do worse than this?
    Removed Kolasinac, Danilo, KDB, Ramsey, Kane on wildcard, replaced with Alonso, Cedric, Alli, Mkhi, Morata(at least a goal there)

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Some serious point chasing there

      1. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        Hmm knew it was a wrong move a day after I hit the button, but tried to do the best I could from the situation!

    2. OldBenKenobi
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Ouch and ouch! 🙁

  13. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Dawson and mane

    To

    Eriksen/alli and Baives

    For a hit?

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Sun is setting on the Bavies express, don't you think? I wouldn't get him unless you plan to WC soon in case he loses starts/minutes from Rose later this month (probably?) or even Son if they try wingbacks and try out Son there again (probably not, but possibly).

  14. laplana
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Looks like Mark had a HUGE WC fail. Dang! 😯

    1. rdpx
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      My partner took out Jesus and KDB on hers...

      Sick as a parrot.

  15. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    No. 1 overall having a stinker sofar (5 points from 6 players).

  16. rdpx
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    I just kneejerked a -4:

    Bertrand and Daniels OUT

    Kiko and Davies IN

    Feeling very pleased with it.

    1. Delhidynamo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Kiko went off injured

      1. rdpx
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        Ah.

        Oh dear.

        *embarrassed silence

        1. Delhidynamo
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 29 days ago

          At least Rose isn't back soon

      2. billnats
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        well that's awkward

        1. rdpx
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 29 days ago

          I shall pray to the gods who watch over the WFC physios.

    2. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Kiko is injured, lol!

  17. Delhidynamo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    A) Trippier
    B) Yoshida
    C) TFM
    D) Son

    What should be the priority fixes here?

  18. Kuyt Hero
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    About to pull WC trigger:

    Bravo and Jones

    or

    Foster and Bavies?

      Decide after Europe.

      1. Kuyt Hero
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 29 days ago

        Would that be to determine Jones nailed-ness?

  19. New Post
  20. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Is Bavies still a good option? What about Rose, if/when he returns soon, how will Poch rotate them?

    If WC intact Bavies could be added now and if rotated later on you'll have your WC ready

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years

      Not sure but rose still injured so will think about that later 🙂

  21. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 12 Years

    Right guys need some man city player (s) in me team. Do you think it s the start of good things for kdb ? Thanks a lot 🙂

  22. Sánchez
    • 14 Years

    Stoke atmosphere is second to none in England

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      That's not hard 🙂

  23. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    I'm sure Rose was meant to come back from injury in February at one point.........

    it's now September

  24. El Lobito 10
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    You just know Lukaku is going to destroy Everton next week, even if he blanks tomorrow...

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      He's playing right now, not tomorrow

    2. billnats
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 29 days ago

      Considering he is playing right now, I think he will definitely blank tomorrow

  25. _figu
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 29 days ago

    Bottomed:

    Foster - Elliot
    Alonso - Davies - Bertrand - YOSHIDA - 4.0
    Eriksen - Pogba - Phillips - Atsu - Carroll
    Kane - Lukaku - Chica

    .4 ITB, 1 FT

    What to do with Yoshida? I'm looking at 4.5 or even 4.0 with those 3 D. Or should I go 4-3-3 with someone like Daniesl (Brighton, Everton)?

    WBA has West Ham home GW5 so I'll keep Phillips until I use my WC on 2nd International break.
