Sunday treats us to a pair of Gameweek 4 fixtures, with Burnley hosting Crystal Palace in the early 1.30pm kick off.

After picking up four points in testing trips to Chelsea and Spurs, we’re keeping a keen eye on the Clarets’ budget options ahead of further home encounters against Huddersfield, West Ham, Newcastle and Swansea between now and Gameweek 12.

Such a schedule means that Ben Mee is Burnley’s most popular pick with 8% Fantasy Premier League ownership, though playmaker Robbie Brady and new boy Chris Wood are also on the radar after combining for the late leveler at Wembley last time out.

With no goals and no points after three matches, the Eagles’ disastrous start already has many suggesting that Frank de Boer has one foot through the exit door.

The big surprise is that the cut-price Ruben Loftus-Cheek is nowhere to be seen, despite recovering from a groin problem. Over 349,000 managers benched the on-loan midfielder for Gameweek 4, with 91,000+ selling him on.

And there’s little respite on the horizon for the Selhurst Park outfit, with clashes against both Manchester clubs and Chelsea in the following four.

    People slowly warming up to the idea of selling Lukaku now.

    The abuse that I was subjected to when I said the same and did it 2 gws ago....

    1. MTPockets
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think the criticism was centred around saying it 20 times.

      I did it before GW3 too. Feels good.

      Just sucks that the defenders he's playing against seem to all have him in their teams and leave him alone unmarked at times.

      Lukaku is the new Costa a sea of 6's

    4. TheTwelfthMan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He's scored 4 in 4, 58% owned player, it's madness.

    5. Henry_555

      Sold him after second gw and cursed my decision when he stepped up to take that spot kick against leicester which eventually ended up pretty good decision... he is a good player and plays in great team which adds to your goal appeal as a striker but I just dont see him worthy that price tag with other options in attack and with great midfield options...I am sticking with kdb,eriksen,kane and pogba for season and simply dont find room for lukaku...don't want to ruin my team becauae of a bully who cant finish one-on-ones and usually needs 10 chances to score single goal

    6. Yankee Toffee
      9 years, 1 month ago

      4 goals in 4 games....selling him is a poor choice even if he is a troll.

    WC Team:

    Foster
    BDavies Jones Bertrand D. Luiz
    Salah Pogba Atsu
    Morata Kaku Kane

    Subs: Elliot, T Caroll, Cork, Mbemba

    Nex week doing Luiz to Kolasinac

    And then if/when Hazard is on form maybe Salah to Hazard and Morata to Firmino

    Your thoughts will be appreciated 🙂

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE

      With Atsu not starting today I'd be worried if he was my 3rd MF

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        God no - surely nobody would be that foolish.

      2. HD7
        9 years, 1 month ago

        So maybe get Ramsey

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Lovely defence. Atsu is the weak link of course but you knew the risk/reward.

      1. HD7
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah maybe upgrade somehow to Ramsey

      2. HD7

        WC Team:

        Foster
        BDavies Jones Cedric Naughton
        Salah Pogba Ramsey
        Morata Kaku Kane

        Subs: Elliot, T Caroll, Cork, Mbemba

        ?

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I wouldn't get Naughton on wc personally - if he's just a standard RB

        2. Henry_555
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Cedric>mee
          Jones>zanka
          Cork> choupo/gross

    Boo to Naughton not being wing back.

  7. DAZZ
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Watching this game and im baffled as to why on earth Leicester made a serious bid of 27 million for Andros Townsend. That is outrageous. Even in this day and age, hes worth absolute maximum 10 million. Awful player!

  8. how now brown cow
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Dann close

  9. _Ninja_
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Dann so close again

    Only WC this GW and I feel my midfield needs repairing already.

    Why on earth did I think Tadic and Brady were good picks?

    I am better than this!

    Replacements please?

    1. TheOx95
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Brady was one of the strangest bandwagons I've seen on this site. Tadic I can understand, but I'm never getting him in again as he's a complete troll

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        9 years, 1 month ago

        People just wnat someone cheap, Brady fits that and is on set pieces and crap?

        1. TheOx95
          9 years, 1 month ago

          1 shot on target though. Many better options at that bracket

    2. willl
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It's been one week, can't expect a 5.5m to return every week ffs.

    3. A Team Of James McCleans
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Because brady is cheap, on set pieces, important player in the team and will pick up points. He got 8 points last week but if youre expecting big returns every week from any 5.5 youre going to be dissapointed

  11. CloudSky
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Butt clenched for us Dann sellers.

  12. Sim Simma

    Scott Dan trolling

  13. Sebbo29

    Tarkowski has been excellent

    1. Deus
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Indeed

  14. Rainer

    FdB should start Dann up top next Saturday and just put Benteke down.

    1. dvdguy
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If he's still in charge next game

  15. Jay_
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Townsend on for a bap or two

  16. HurriKane
    9 years, 1 month ago

  17. Monkey Hanger

    Holdor.

  18. VFORVANDETA
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Atsu Bertie Tadic Willian Hagazi Ake Taroll Long to WC?

    1. La Roja
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sounds like it

    2. TheBusDriver
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Bertie is still a decent pick. You need to sell the rest.

    3. JoeJitzu +42

      Defo wildcard

  19. CloudSky
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How is Tark not top of the baps? He is cleaning everywhere.

  20. The Royal Robin
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Townsend is actually a decent player - a massive underachiever.

  21. how now brown cow
    9 years, 1 month ago

    12th palace corner. Pressure mounting...

  22. nicecat
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I always feel like somebody's watching Mee

    1. how now brown cow
      9 years, 1 month ago

    2. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It's just Mee, myself and I

    3. nicecat
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wake Mee up when September ends

  23. Ginkapo FPL
    9 years, 1 month ago

    When are they going to realise that Benteke is entirely pointless when playing alongside wingers who shoot on site rather than pass?

  24. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    9 years, 1 month ago

    50 points behind elader in my mini-league already. Pretty sure some players not evcen playign are now beating me

  25. Syd.
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Palace for all their faults have been the better side today

    Burnley are shit

  26. DAZZ
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I will smile when FDB gets the sack. Deserves it

    1. Bubz
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Why?

  27. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Does anyone know if RLC will be fit for next week? Have him as a rotator with TCaroll and kinda need him.

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Some for Mbemba - need one to be fit really.

  28. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
