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.

    Well I was 3.6 mill after GW2. My worst start ever. Now I'm 1.9 mill so at this rate I should be #1 in the world in 3 or four GW's correct...?

  7. MisterMaster

    transferred out trippier last gw, does it look like a wrong decision?

    1. NestorC
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      now it does, later maybe not

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Short term a little hasty so yes, long term no, Aurier will likely come in to the side

  8. dunas_dog

    Play
    A Brady v Liverpool away or

    Willian>Choupou-Moting
    Stephens>Davies
    Leaves 0.8M ITB that can be very useful

    Good move using 2FT?

    1. NestorC
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure about first one

      1. VFORVANDETA

  11. TerryVenables
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I have Ramsey, Ritchie, Eriksen and Willian in midfield. Willian has to go but there's 0 players that are any good to replace him with. Anyone else changing to 4-3-3?

    1. Skyarm
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yup on 433 think it looks the way to go this year

      1. Stats Don\'t Lie
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        This constantly changes. When hazard, sanchez, cout start firing suddenly it will be 343/442/352 everywhere

  13. VFORVANDETA

    Willian Tadic to Pogba .....5.5?

    a) Groß
    b) Doucouré
    c) Choupo-Moting
    d) Other

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Probably C from those options

    2. NestorC
      • 9 Years

      Gtg

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Double Southampton away at Palace worrys me, especially with Stephens not nailed. Probably not worth a hit though I guess

        1. VFORVANDETA
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Plays Mee then.

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Away at Liverpool?

        2. TheTwelfthMan
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Not worth a hit certainly, just hope that Stephens plays.

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Seeing as you can't afford Stephens > davies, no.

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah 🙁 if I could afford it I'd do it no questions asked, I can afford trippier but I don't think he'll be starting for much longer

      If ever a WC was made for a purpose its to fix teams like this

    Foster Elliot
    Alonso Valencia Bertrand Naughton Hunemeier
    Eriksen Pogba Gross Tadic Carroll
    Lukaku Jesus Abraham
    2.6m itb, no ft
    Team in a mess. No Kane or Davies. Would you WC?

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No.

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    3. RIPAguero
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No, it's hardly a mess.
      A couple of hits would put you in good shape.

  18. acidicleo
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    is simpson (lei) nailed?
    was considering lascelles / clark and saw that simpso is also 4.5!!

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Simpson's nailed, but he's a yellow magnet.

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nailed but little to no attacking threat for a fullback and gets a lot of ycs

  19. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Current squad....

    Foster (Elliot)
    Hegazi/Mee/Naughton (Simpson/Long)
    Alli/ Salah/ Mkhi /Atsu (Carroll)
    Kane/Jesus/Firmino

    1 FT, 1.3m in bank...Any suggestions to change anything?
    Obviously Bavies in for someone right?...But who?

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Hegazi

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Hegazi > bavies

      1. SuperMane Returns
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks guys, thats exactly what I was thinking, will still have 0.4m left in bank, even after Bavies comes in 🙂

  20. rjcv177
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Saved ft last gw to miniwc with -8...now i'm clueless again

    Ddg, elliot
    Bertr, dawson, mee, lowe, long
    Eriksen, salah, mykh, ritchie, carroll
    Kane,luk, mounie

    Priority? Reshape def, or change funds to 3rd striker? Thkx in adv.

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      How much itb?

  21. laplana
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    What's the argument for Jesus over Morata? Especially with Hazard back?

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I have Jesus but very worried about gametime. Sterling, Sane could get 45 min rotation with him and 1 pointers not so unlikely

    2. Reed_Rothchild
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      There is no argument. Morata will score 25 goals this season.

    3. RIPAguero
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Chelsea don't have the easiest of upcoming fixtures:
      ARS/Sto/MANC/Pal

      I'd possibly wait to bring him in after the Man City game if you think he's a season keeper.

  22. Geri-hatricks
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Should I be worried about having no City attackers this week?

    Front 8:
    Eriksen (SWA), Mkhi (EVE), Salah (BUR), Ritchie (STK) (Carroll)
    Kane (SWA), Lukaku (EVE), Gabbi (cpl)

    I have 2FT but with only 0.3m in the bank, I would need to get rid of a big hitter to say upgrade Gabbi to Jesus. With all of them having home fixtures, not worth getting rid of any or should I be desperately trying to get in a City attacker?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No. However lukaku + gabbi > morata/laca/jesus + vardy/firmino could be a shrewd use of the 2fts

  23. White Hart Kane
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Thoughts on Chic and Cedric for Vardy and Naughton with my 2 FT? I'm 0.3 short of a straight Chic for Vardy swap.

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Have you got bench cover for Naughton this week, if so yes providing your def balance isn't completely ruined

      1. White Hart Kane
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Rest of the backline is Bavies, Lowe, Mee, Mbemba. Would only need to play 3 at the back.

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Hmm, WC in hand in case it goes wrong? if so, yes

  24. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Really hoping for some much needed luck this week, just can't seem to catch a break. Granted I'm to blame for some of my problems but constantly seem to face an uphill battle. With that in mind, gtg?

    Forster
    Bertrand, Jones, Suttner
    Eri(k)sen, Alli, mkhi, atsu
    Lukaku, Morata, Firmino

    Elliott, Carroll, hegazi, long

    0ft, 0.8itb. My one ft was to remove mane after bringing him in for a hit this week...

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No Kane is risky waters..

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      gtg, nothing worth a hit

    3. Balance
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Looks good, nice attack

  25. Slurpy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Leicester or Newcastle defender?

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I think they're about the same, Leicester look more solid with Maguire, Castle a tough nut to crack, both have a nice run of fixtures too

  26. acidicleo
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I am seriously considering 5-2-3 with def with assist/goal threat
    def - alonso bavies mendy/walker kola cedric
    st - kane firm morata/kaku
    mid - erik --- and 3x4.5 (rlc carrol chalobah)

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Too risky.I rather play 352.

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Sounds good

    3. socho
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Risky

    4. acidicleo
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      but cant fit in more than 3 good mids with budget constraints..
      and some of those wing backs are effectively like mids in terms of assists..
      am just thinking..

    5. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      If you're going 523 the 2 in mid need to be strong, BOTH strong... Props for your defence though good effort!

  27. PL Ball
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Obvious wait on CL games.. but would you do this for -4?

    Yoshida, Willian, Tadic ==> Davies, Countinho, 4.5 (Probably Chalobah).

    1. Skyarm
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Will Coutinho even play?

      1. PL Ball
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I reckon he'll come off the bench against Sevilla. And a potential starter against Burnley especially with no Mane.
        Or I'm being too optimistic...

    2. Balance
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Probably not worth the hit.

      Just do Yoshida and Willian out for Bavies and a 6m mid?

  28. Rian23
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    is Alonso-Kolasinac-Davies (from gw6 onwards) too much cash in defence?

    1. Skyarm
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on the rest of your team, could definitely pay off very well.

    2. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Formation?

      1. Rian23
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        343 looking difficult with them 3. could be 433

        1. G-Whizz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Could also be 5 at the back, who knows lol

  29. socho
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Any opinions on that top heavy first XI?

    -----------------Hart-----------------------
    -----Naughton-----Jones----Alonso-

    ---Eriksen---Choupo---Gross---Mkhy---

    ----Morata------Kane--------Lukaku

    1. Balance
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Looks good

  30. nadman89
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Seems like everyone is gonna flip a coin for foster vs Elliot right ?

    1. Rosey Palmer
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah, I have DeGea/Elliot and I am not sure after this week, cost me 6pts.

    2. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Such a tough decision.

      Foster edges the stats ever so slightly.

    3. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Elliot wins hands down (lol) for me...
