Dugout Discussion – West Ham vs Huddersfield

The Gameweek concludes at the London Stadium where West Ham are treated to their first home game of the campaign against Huddersfield Town.

At the start of the season, this appeared to be a fixture which would have seen us back the Hammers’ assets for returns. Three games in and the outlook is very different.

The Terriers turn up undefeated and with no goals conceded. That form has seen the likes of goalkeeper Jonas Lossl and defender Zanka pick up 8.4% and 10.4% ownership respectively. Meanwhile, playmaker Aaron Mooy is backed by 12.9% having produced a goal and an assist to this point.

But West Ham have the best-supported player on show tonight.

Chicharito is part of 1.4 million squads and is backed by 159,000+ (3.3%) with the captaincy.

Significantly, he’ll be supported by Andy Carroll in the West Ham attack, in what appears to be a 3-5-2 set-up deployed by the under pressure Slaven Bilic.

Joe Hart is the next best owned West Ham asset in action, although 71% of his 500,000 owners have chosen to bench him ahead of tonight’s clash.

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

    Damn, Alonso + Mkhi to Bavies + Eriksen (-4) is still tempting

        When I draft my current potential WC, it's what I'm on.

      Does Mane count? Got sent off and therefore got some points

    I see Lascelles didn't start in GW1. Do we think Clark is a more safe option?

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Seems to be

    2. Mouldmaster
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Lascelles captain

  5. Hy liverpool
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    alert !!!

    If you haven't noticed that From next week onwards EVERTON and ARSENAL fixtures are becoming sexy and sexy ...

    Arsenal : WBA BRI wat eve SWA
    Everton : BOU BUR bri ARS lei WAT

    With Sanchez , Lacazette and Kola for Arsenal
    And Siggy , Rooney and Keane/Baines for everton
    All on the radar that would give us along term options

    If you could save this week ft for next week just do it and get 1/2 players from EVERTON and ARSENAL

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Could wildcard GW6 ...,

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Not sure on Roonpig. Baines will be in for me. Might W/C for GW6

        1. Hy liverpool
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          If only wr know who would be on penos for them !!
          Baines Siggy and Rooney all could took them

    2. Art Vandelay
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Not really sure about Everton, despite the change in fixtures. They were woeful at the weekend.

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Who's gonna win them the penos for someone to take them? No Lukaku or Coleman 🙁 anymore

    3. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Yep. Fixture turn makes Gw6 a good time to WC.

      Chelsea and Leicester have good fixtures coming up too

      1. Hy liverpool
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Yep
        Very tempted now ...

  6. Jigger & Pony
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Jesus + Laca > Kane + Firmino -4 worth it?

    1. MTPockets
        6 years, 9 months ago

        no

        1. Jigger & Pony
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Laca > Kane and keep Jesus better? Can do that downgrading Willian or DeGea

          1. Our Tiny Windows
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            Yes. De Gea.

    2. laplana
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Have absolutely no idea what to do with Mane 🙁

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Straight swap to Eriksen?

        1. laplana
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Have Eriksen

      2. F4L
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        same. Replacement could be my Kane enabler, or if could just go with Alli

        1. laplana
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          It's either Salah, Siggy or KDB

      3. Too Mane Men
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        KDB

      4. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        i assume he is dropping tonight at -101.4. worth taking the drop to see if they reduce ban to one and get through CL games?

        1. laplana
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          I bought at 9.5 so I will take the drop.

          1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            9.6 here on WC. think im gonna gamble on pogba coming through ok and do it now

      5. Bushido
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        I replaced him with Mahrez

        1. FPL Maldini
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Get Alli too

    3. Too Mane Men
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Will someone kindly explain to me why Suttner is close to dropping in price.

      I have more pressing issues such as Tom Ince, Gabbiadini and Stephens to deal with here people.

      Have some respect and keep hold of him.

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Pre-season hype got him a few owners who are now fed up and packing their bags

      2. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Other 4.5's have been cleaning

      3. Art Vandelay
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        It’s a bizarre one, i agree. FWIW, I don’t see him falling this week

        1. Too Mane Men
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          I concur and welcome these slower price changes with open arms.

    4. F4L
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Salah or Firmino going forward?

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Firm as a third striker

    5. aleksios
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      3 options for getting Kane..Which one?

      a) Firm to Kane no hit
      b) Chicarito and Lukaku to Kane and Morata for a hit.
      c) Chicarito and Richarlison to Kane and Carroll for a hit.

      Thanks all.

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        C

      2. Atimis
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        C

        1. aleksios
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Thanks guys..really tempted by b but c makes sense.

      3. Pino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        A is the most safe, but I would go b.

    6. Dunlox
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      2 free transfers. Any ideas would be much appreciated?

      Fabianski / Foster

      Cedric / Moreno / Lascelles / Mee / Francis

      KDB / Willian / Alli / Loftus-Cheek / Carroll

      Kane / Lukaku / Firmino

      0 in the bank.

      Thanks in advance.

      1. aleksios
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Maybe 1 keeper to a 4.0 and upgrade a def.?

      2. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Willian and Francis out

        Bavies and someone else in

    7. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Who scores more this weekend?

      A. Salah, Mounie, Eriksen
      B. Gross, Kane x2, -8

      1. F4L
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        A

      2. Dannyb
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        I would imagine A

        1. Ha.
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Going Kane-less is a scary thought, but I think it's the right decision given the circumstances

    8. F4L
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Grrr, things would have been so much simpler and easy or Mane just hadn't got sent off 🙁 😐 Loved my 'Pool triple up I did

      1. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Same here, wrecked the gameweek

        1. F4L
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          yep. Getting 1 point from 3 of premium assets to start off the GW wasn't ideal 😆

      2. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Nice replacements at that price bracket though.

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          This, imagine how those poor Fabregas owners felt

          1. F4L
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            what if you owned both 🙁

            1. We Will Klopp you
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 9 months ago

              That would be beyond painful, wouldn't wish that on anyone

              1. F4L
                • 9 Years
                6 years, 9 months ago

                trust me I know 🙁

        2. F4L
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          I suppose. Allows for one of Alli or Kane, but its just not as fun as owning Mane

          1. Eddie
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            I reckon owning Kane will be.

      3. laplana
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Absolutely killed me off

        1. F4L
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          same

    9. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Evening all, anyone know why Lowe cam off after 62 mins?

      1. G-Whizz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        He wasn't injured.

      2. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Wagner had him in fpl and knew they couldn't hold out 😆

        1. Eddie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          That's fine then. Thanks

        2. F4L
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          😆

    10. EL_FENOMENO
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Best striker for 6 mil ?

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Joselu looks somewhat promising, maybe wood but he's a Burnley striker, either one of those

    11. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      How does this potential -4 team look like, moves are Alonso to Davies and Mkhi to Eriksen

      Elliott (Fabianski)
      *Davies Jones Clark (Naughton Rosenoir)
      Brady *Eriksen Salah Pogba (Chalobah)
      (K)ane Morata Firmino

      1. Our Tiny Windows
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Great moves but why -4? Just do one.

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Because I feel like I need both, will be priced out if they rise again

    12. England23
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Lowe or naughton

      And is oriol Romeu a viable 4.5 mid option? Already have chalobah

      1. G-Whizz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Stay away from Naughton imo.
        http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/public-stats-tables/view/20816/

        Have Romeu, brought him in on my WC, just using as bench fodder tbh, plays but don't expect much apart from a yellow card here and there...

    13. Bruno Bruno!!
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Lukaku to Kane is really tempting me at the moment and I can do it with 1 free transfer and save my other FT. Thoughts

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Hold off for the moment pending CL games, then yeah, I think Kane for at least this run off fixtures will outscore Lukaku.

      2. G-Whizz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Who do you fancy to captain the most over say the next month?

    14. DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Surely a Kane triple captain cant be out the question this weekend, 4 goals in 2 games against a dire swansea defence

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        DGWs

      2. Sánchez
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Never on a single game week

        1. DAZZ
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          If you triple captained Kane on the weekend, and he bagged 2, would you be happy or dissapointed because you didnt use it in a DGW?

        2. G-Whizz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          I agree with you wholeheartedly but look at this jammy git...
          https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/team/1922989/event/4

      3. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        doesnt always work out

      4. Too Mane Men
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Eriksen has a great H2H record Vs Swansea. I'd captain him over Kane. If Kane blanks and Erik fires, it's essentially a TC of sorts given how many will have opted for Kane.

    15. Dynamic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Willian + Chicharito -> Chalobah + Kane (-4)?

    16. Dannyb
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      I'm tempted to wildcard as I want rid of Ake, Mounie, Mane and a few others. I wanna get Kane in and currently have Lukaku and Jesus up top. Would you rather have Morata or Jesus? Jesus has the fixtures but I'm so worried about City rotation.

      1. sully29
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Morata, definitely.

    17. FPL Maldini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Would we say Ramsey is pretty nailed?

      1. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Apart from the Anfield shambles he's played well, yeah

      2. Garth Marenghi
        • 8 Years

        Wait til after the uefa games

    18. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      I didn't think Liverpool would score well but a Mane red made my no Liverpool cover fine for one more week.

      Firmino in for the weekend?

      Obviously lots to play this week but how do we rate Liverpool prospects now? About the same?

      1. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Erratic as always Geoff

          Me or Liverpool? 😉

          I need a Gabbi replacement and was really hoping Chicarito or Rooney would give me a reason to bring them in

        If ever you should have a Liverpool attacker this is the week for one...
        Firmino is my fave but anyone of them could turn up and haul tbh...

      Gamez is nailed now or could be bench?

        Not nailed 100% but likely to start the next match.

      Thoughts on Jordan Ayew for 3rd striker? Been one of Swansea's best players so far and is basically matching Abraham for 0.5 less. Some good fixtures after Spurs too

      patiently waiting for morata to rise by 0.1 so that I can ditch him and bank the
      cash.

        Why?

          Why ditch him, excellent value at 10m

      What would people consider a goot TC score? Saying I've got Carrol's 3 and Aguero's 9 so far, surely people would take 13 right?

        *good

      2. Pochecinno

        Yeah but Sanchez and Aguero 25/26 two seasons ago in the same DGW.

      3. Pirlø's Pen

        Aguero 26 & Sanchez 27 here so far...only way is down from here surely.

          😯 That's ridiculously good, well done man

      Everton have had some awful fixtures but after Man Utd this weekend it looks nicer. How nailed-on is Schneiderlin and why did he miss the Chelsea game?

        I think Siggy will be a great shout from after this week.

          Way too expensive for me - Schneiderlin fits
