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.

    Palace woeful but it's no sunrise really, Frank De Boer's a terrible manager.

    1. Hooky
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think it will probably be sunset on De Boer's Palace career soon

      1. Once,Twice,ThreeTimesFellai…
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Ultimately a false dawn

    I see that Mark has messed up his WC.

    Interesting scoutcast coming up.

    1. Syd.
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It looks ok

      1. pundit of punts
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Nah...

        He can't even save a Ft this gw as he will bring Kane in.

    2. Once,Twice,ThreeTimesFellai…

      Would either of you kind gentleman have a link? Curious

      He was probably selling KDB anyway without WC so it's not like his pre-WC team would have scored a lot either. Not that I thought he needed to WC but he still made some good points on the pre-amble.

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Pre WC team unchanged from last week is beating his WC team by 20 points

        1. VS10_
          9 years, 1 month ago

          If he didn't sell KDB and if he capped Kane. If.

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            9 years, 1 month ago

            If ... if he did absolutely nothing and saved a free transfer

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Lots of sideways moves, Soton to Soton, WBA to WBA, Bournemouth to Swansea ... and ditched Kane.

      Scouts are struggling this year a bit ... early days though

    5. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️

      Double Liverpool and Man U attack in 4-3-3. Too many eggs in once basket.

      WC success is based on one week? Good to know.

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        9 years, 1 month ago

        It will probably be ripped up over the next few weeks - same as every WC - things change quickly

    7. zizoo10
      9 years, 1 month ago

      horrid side. not sure why you'd not have a spurs def with their sea of green fixtures coming up.

    8. money face bandwagon
      9 years, 1 month ago

      tbh those opportunities he mentioned are not really attractive enough to do a wc.

      and those he wants to remove are oso not essential to remove

    4. Hooky
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I know a good one about an FPL manager who quits every week but it really drags on and would be too long to post on here.

      Cant see it, especially if they need a goal after 70th minute

  8. DR0GBA

    Any Kompany + Hegazi owners? I'm stuck with what to do with them...

    1. DAZZ
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kompany PVA and stephens here. Dumped Kompany for Bavies last night. Hoping Stephens keeps his spot

      1. DR0GBA
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I would do the straight swap from Hegazi to Bavies right now if I wasn't £0.1m short... might have to take a -4 to get rid

  9. pakornk
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Can someone tell me why is it that they dont make it so the profit we get is the profit we sell? Why the half profit thing? Isn't it not fair that you have until the player is 0.2 to get a 0.1 profit but when you want to buy a player that rises you pay the increased price right away?

    1. MTPockets
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Just the rules.

    2. BullDogTevez
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Is what it is.

    3. Fred54
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I guess its to stop you making loads of extra money easily and making managaing the bugdet harder.

    4. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Trying to discourage an all out revenue gaining strategy, is my theory. But I think it's bad rule, and one I've not seen in other fantasy games with soft salary caps. Let folks play the way they want.

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

      It's to stop everyone making enough money to buy all the top players.

      Otherwise it'd be pretty boring if it was easy to get to £115-120m and virtually everyone has Kane, Lukaku, Alli, Eriksen, Mane, Hazard, Sanchez etc etc.

    This really is a dreadfuLOL game.

    1. VS10_

      I switched to golf. That's bad, even for someone who plays sometimes.

  15. Podge

  16. ponsio22

    Is kane now essential with his run of good fixtures coming up?

    More essential than lukaku?

    1. Hooky
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    Who to drop for Bavies - Cedric Daniels or Suttner

    1. VFORVANDETA
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Daniels

  19. TheTinman

    What happened to Heaton then

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Shoulder injury possibly dislocated

    2. Rainer
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Dislocated shoulder, by the looks of it.

    3. KUNingas
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Shoulder injury I think

    4. TheTinman

    Who else is getting Wood? 😀

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

      Pope

    2. Optimus.
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I will if Tom Carroll scores

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

        So in other words you wont?

        1. Optimus.
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Correct

  21. Differentiator
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Brady likely assist denied by offside flag

  22. Grounderz
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Am I the only one Benteke owner here? I've trusted him for far too long.

    1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He's in my draft team...

    2. Pierce34
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nope, me too. At least keeping him this week has saved me points - I was considering shipping him for Firmino for a hit.

    3. QueefParkRangers
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Haven't had him in since Aston Villa..

  23. The Man Pastore
    9 years, 1 month ago

    What to do here:

    Foster Elliot
    Davies Cedric Mee Dawson Hunnemeier
    Alli Pogba Ramsey Atsu TCarroll
    Kane Lukaku Firmino

    2FT / 0.8ITB

    A) Hunemeier -> Naughton and save other FT
    B) Dawson + Lukaku -> Alonso + Morata
    C) Something else?

    1. VFORVANDETA
      9 years, 1 month ago

      C

      1. The Man Pastore
        9 years, 1 month ago

        what would you do then?

  24. Atimis
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I'm not amazed that CP are shiet, FDB lost his last title with Ajax during last game of the season and also was shiett in Inter. Hope clubs will learn now

    1. el polako
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe they signed his brother ?

  25. Fantasy Freako

    Ok. Mark's wc, I gather wasn't a huge success. Neither was my mini wc...

  27. KGFC
    9 years, 1 month ago

    So much Brady bandwagon pre-GW but he seems to have vanished from this game altogether!

  28. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Foster Elliot
    Kola Stephens TAA Suttner Prodl
    Salah Mkhi Tadic Ritchie Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Firmino

    1 FT .1 ITB

    A) Stephens > Jones
    B) Wait

    1. KUNingas
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

  29. dz1984

    Best midfield option below 5.5m?

    1. el polako
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wait for Swansea game and watch this Sanchez kid closely.

  30. pakornk

    Why was Jesus taken off at the 56 minute vs Liverpool?

    1. KUNingas
