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.

      You go ahead and do that. Im kicking him the f out of my team

    This might deter Mee from falling.

    Any news on Mbemba or RLC fitness? (i.e. will they make next week?)

  7. Dr. Agabuse
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    actually 6pts for meee with a 1-0 is not why i got him.
    i undertand him getting 2 when they concede but I demand 9 from a 1-0 epeccialy seeing those 4clearences in the last 10mins.

  8. Rainer

    Who are the Brady owners swapping him for this week?

    Has to be Gross, right?

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Brady > Doucoure (-4) > Gross (-8) > Choupo-Moting (-12) thus far. Hoping Sanches stays quiet.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        😛

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池

      cant just keep yoyoing 5.5s

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Seriously? People can't expect budget mids to be banging in goals every week. Brady's on all set pieces and frees which means a goal and assist here and there

    4. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Why sell? Presumably you buy players with more than one week in mind and they have a vulnerable Liverpool defence next.

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      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. Aka ill be keeping him. Was quite happy with the 8 points last week

    6. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Brady -> Gross and play the Captain Hindsight chip 😉

      1. Podge
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        😯 I want that chip !!!

    7. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Keep surely. 2 returns from 4 is good for 5.5

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

      Keeping and rotate for home fixtures. No point in bringing in and getting rid after 1 week

  9. money face bandwagon

    62 points with chicharito left

        Tarkowski was all over this game, agreed

    Palace are the first team to lose first 4 games and go without scoring in PL history.

    PvA from GW1, what a Benteke of a decision that was!

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Wow. Beating the likes of Derby and Ipswich during 'those' seasons

    7 days ago everyone was slating Kane and getting rid,
    Now they all come crawling back, respect to everyone who kept the faith! LOL at the ones who brought in a failed replacement

  14. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Brady > Choupo-Moting for -4?

    Yay or nay?

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      only for free

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years

      No

    3. bojack
      • 9 Years

      Just no.

    4. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years

      Not for a hit

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

      Absolutely no

  15. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Brady is useless. Mee isn't a bap magnet. Sell to who for -8?

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Lee with an assist today, Brady > Lee (-16).

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

      One game which Burnley win. I am keeping Brady fit great home games. He will get good points but for a 5.5 cannot expect every week

  16. ronty
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    61 with Ritchie and Carroll left.

    This is a good rebound of a week.

  17. FALCAO & MOU
    • 11 Years

    I might cross 3 million by the end of this week.

  19. Chucky

    Why no baps for Mee? 🙁

    1. ronty
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Tarkowski was better and even he doesn't get any

  20. Chandler Bing
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Is it worth avoiding hits and keeping 2 of Atsu, Yoshida, Tadic and PvA or should I take the hit/wildcard?

  21. GinjaWhinja
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Got Mee first cleansheet for this week! BOOM.

  22. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Wildcard from Hell!! Kola and Aguero in the transfers out, Brady, Atsu, RLC in.

    Would appreciate some honest feedback whether my team is ok or not? And perhaps just a bad week?

    Foster
    Alonso | Jones | Naughton
    Mane | Alli | Brady | Atsu
    Kane | Lukaku | Firmino

    Elliot | RLC | Lowe | Tuanzebe

    Many thanks

      Was that your WC for this week?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yes Robin

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Looks fine. Mane to Eriksen a no-brainer

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers, not to Salah?

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah, IMO.

          Spurs with significantly better fixtures. Liverpool may miss Mane. Be brave with the triple up.

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Ok Cheers! May have to sort Atsu and possibly Brady the following week

        2. Cok3y5murf
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          I mean no, IMO 🙂

          1. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Oops, looks like I had Mane from the start so don't get the 0.1 for Eriksen! Salah it Is!

            1. Cok3y5murf
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              Ah, tough luck.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years

        Cheers Bojack, just so terrible having a week like this straight following a WC!

    Mou must be one of the most disgusting people on planet earth. We had the "happy" interviews for awhile and the first time he does not get 3 points walks out of an interview. And to not shake hands with Hughes, a utd legend - as much as I hate utd- poor form.

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Would you like to shake hands with someone who cursed you?

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Is this meant to be a mans game or 2 year old girls having a kick about. Seriously?

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          women play football too

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Not having a go at women. That's not what I am saying. I coach more girls that boys.

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

        And yes of course I would shake someone's hand who cursed at me during a game.

    2. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I can personally think of people who've done worse things than walk out of an interview and not shake someone's hand.

    3. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      He wants his players to know its unacceptable. Obviously, if he is happy then losing isnt a big deal right?

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        sorry drawing

    4. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Hughes was being a douche all game, can't fault Mou for that. The only thing Mou did wrong yesterday was starting with a 3 man mid.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Once douche from those two mangers. At least one played at a level.

    5. Mr.Irwin
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      It's called diverting attention from a bad result. His been doing it for years

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        And from the points above - do even his own players not look at this and think this guy is behaving like a spoilt child. That's really my point.

    6. Frozen flying mammoth
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah as a United fan I didn't like that. My respect for Hughes is a million times higher than Mou, at least shake the guys hand, he scored two against Barca to win us the cup winners cup, give the guy respect! Just to add Everton's manager scored the goal for Barca!

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        See as an Abu I have a utd fan agreeing and understanding exactly what I am talking about. Some respect for a club legend is never a bad thing. Imagine Klopp treating Gerrard like that in similar circumstances.

  24. Sims

    this atsu carrol cheap double up is becoming a problem now

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Carroll hasn't even played yet?

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        he's played 3 games and done nothing

        1. money face bandwagon
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          dont expect anth from a 4.5m

        2. Cok3y5murf
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          You expected a goal in those 3 games for 4.5m?

          1. Sims
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            no but at least an assist from the goals swansea have scored

    2. A Team Of James McCleans
      • 10 Years

      This was inevitable surely

      1. KLOPPTOMANIA
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Captain Hindsight! Easy to say obvious when looking back

  25. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    RMWCT please.

    Fabianski (Elliot)
    Alonso Davies Naughton Dunk (Mbemba)
    Eriksen Mkhitaryan Choupo-Moting (T.Carroll J.Cork)
    Kane Lukaku Morata

    Weak bench but they all play. Typically 90 mins.

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Relying on two of Naughton/Dunk/T.Carroll/Cork every week is going to end in tears.

      1. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        How so, mate? They've all played every minute so far.

      2. money face bandwagon
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        +1 choupo-Moting also

  26. Tibbs
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Willian owners, what are you doing? Who are the best options at 7m?

    1. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Thinking of selling. Probably for a downgrade. So many options though, I have no idea who I'll got for.

      Joselu
      Chuopo-Moting
      Chabaloah
      Richardson
      Knockeart
      Gross

      Perhaps one of those guys. Not in a huge rush. I'll probably wait until Friday afternoon. I got him for £7.0 so I can afford a price drop from him.

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      non apart from downgrade or upgrade

      1. Tibbs
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I also have Atsu to move on given he is on the bench too.

    3. Scout Pics
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I need answers too. Ramsey worth a shot but I already have him...

  27. A Team Of James McCleans
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    People who complain about selling someone then they score and the player they signed blanked are the same people taking point hits to sell a 5.5 after one blank. Calm.

  28. Oven Glover
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Looks like Dann could have gotten a hat trick today judging by the replays.

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      It was a hairy last 10min for Burnley

  29. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    @Mark.

    We still can't get players names when hovering over each players avg position in the members are matches.

    Short of remembering each players shirt number it's making it hard work to spot those playing very high up the pitch.

  30. Winners900
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Atsu will most likely get subbed in?

    Thoughs?

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      yes sub

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      99% likely

    3. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Very likely imo
