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.

    Please choose Abraham or Joselu for 3rd striker, and why? (Have Kane & Lukaku and want to sell Chica).
    Thanks.

    1. FPL Kangaroo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Firmino.

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

      Joselu out of those two, I don't see him being dropped anytime soon as long as he scores a goal every 2-3 weeks, but hes still likely to only get u 2 points most weeks. Tammy will be on the bench once Bony is fit in a week or so

    Badly want City attack in but it will come at the cost of Lukaku.

    Worried about ownership and the fact he seems good for a goal against Everton.

    Or am I overthinking this as Jesus provides better value and I'm going to end up captaining Kane anyways for the next 4 GW's?

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

      Who's in your front 3?

      I'm in a similar position but I'm thinking of dropping lukaku for Kane which leaves me with Kane + Jesus up front

      1. Zoostation
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Kane Lukaku and Chicharito.

        Jesus gives me City and funds the pea to Vardy party.

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

          Sounds like good to me

          But would wait until after the CL games before making a move

          Nothing worse than getting an injured player after using 2 transfers

          1. Zoostation
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Yes I need to wait but have to be mindful of rises and falls as I have exact cash to make these moves.

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

          Kane Jesus Vardy > Kane Lukaku Chicharito
          for me atleast

  3. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Mané to Cout, KDB or Silva? Hmmm. . .

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

      I went coutinho, its a gamble but when hes on hes liverpools best by far!

    2. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Who are your other mids? I like KDB even though I just got rid of him.

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

        but when city go back to playing against 11 men and KDB drops back deep do you still want him? he looked great against pool once they went to 10 men and he could get forward and do what he does best, has looked terrible for fantasy the rest of the season

  4. Ozymandias
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Yoshida to Cedric or Tadic to Silva ?

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

      Not a fan of either trade

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

      Tadic first for me

  5. John Stones
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    why was Lowe subbed at the 62nd min?? bit lucky to get the cs but concerns for next week?.?

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

      Antonio was causing problems for him plus he wasn't getting forward much. Just 1 bad game really, wouldn't be too worried

  6. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    How this? 2ft to bring in Vardy and Moting.

    Foster
    Davies Jones Alonso
    Mkhi Eriksen Ramsey Moting
    Kane (C) Firmino(vc) Vardy

    Fabs Mbemba Fernandez Chalobah

    1.1m itb.

  7. cylus11 ( Manager) - Russia…
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Thinking to transfer out Chichcharito after last game.
    Looking to get in Vardy for a 4 pt hit vs Huddersfield. He is on penalties too.
    Does it look too kneejerking or should wait one more Gw
    Thoughts

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

    With healthy Carroll, Lanzini and Arnie coming back, plus Ayew.. I think Chica will eventually become an impact player at the best..

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

      You might be right but I hope not. Can't see who I would replace him with in the 7 mil and under bracket.
      If he has to go I will probably just go 2 upfront and upgrade elsewhere.

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nah, Bilic didnt pay 20m Euros to bench him.

    3. Carlton_Goal
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Doubt it. Antonio, Lanzini, Arnie playing behind chicha is still west hams strongest front 4

  9. I Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Foster
    Jones, Maguire, Cedric
    Eriksen, Salah, Mkhitaryan, Brady
    Kane, Morata, Firmino

    Elliot, Dunk, Chalobah, Naughton.

    1 FT 0.0 ITB

    Planning to save this week but who would you be looking to bring in for GW6? Feel like I need to beef up my defence a bit. Looking at Davies, Kolasinac and Mendy as my main targets but don't see any obvious downgrade to raise funds for one of them.

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

      Yeah that's the thing with having nothing ITB and mostly fodder it is quite inflexible.
      But I would rather have 11 good ones than 14 average.

      Don't know how you do it either. Might be best left alone as that teams looks good.

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

    Anyone else have 8-9 away this week and will have 9 home players for the coming week. Hoping for a bumper haul.
    I need to stop being average.
    200 points and 50 points this week- average of 50 points - that's very average. 1.2 mil OR decidedly average 🙂

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Had 8 away players last week.

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

        Not bad to be average this week so I suppose.

        You had a Great. GW1 - 100 points. Hard to avoid the red arrows after that but get back up there. Well played.

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I will have 10 home players this week if I play Mooy, 9 if I play Bertrand.

    3. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      8 and 8.

      196 points, 1.5m OR. It's still too early to be worried about rank but yes, a big GW would be nice.

  11. The Legend Squad
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Have done Mane to Erikson to set up a Spurs triple for their great run of fixtures. See anything else worth a -4?

    RMT

    Foster
    Alonso Jones Cedric Naughton
    Erikson Ali Pogba Mhki
    Kane Firmino

    (Elliot Carrol Mbemba Quaner)

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

      looks solid, not far off my team, but ive decided to start Elliot, sick of juggling starting keeper every week and watching Elliot rake up points on my bench!

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No you're good to go. Nice team

    3. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Eggs in two baskets, if Spurs and/or MUN underperform you've ad it mate!

      1. The Legend Squad
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Your not wrong. High risk high reward strategy there early days. Need to do something to get into the top 1m! Rubbish season so far

        1. The Legend Squad
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          You're

          1. jia you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Tell me about it, I've had a shocking 2 GWs, 400k to 1.7m OR! GL!!

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

      Nice team. Feast or a famine though, but why not take a risk- it's early days.

  12. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I have chicharito, which I sadly also captained.
    I also have 0.5 ITB

    Should i:

    1 keep,for one more game
    2 bring hemed for 4.9 to generate cash for the future
    3 chicharito and richarlison for firmino and chaloba for -4

    1. FantasyNik123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      1

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years

  13. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    A) Salah Kane Vardy

    B) Jesé/Choupo-Moting Kane Lukaku.

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Interesting. There is now option C 😉

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      C) Pogba Morata Kane

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

        well this seems like the obvious one but depends on your team?

        1. Make United Great Again
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Would give me this team:

          Elliot
          Jones Daniels Bertrand
          Pogba Mhki Eriksen Richardlison
          Kane Morata Firmino

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

            yeah done, id go with that bud, only other worry for me is daniels, Lowe/Schindler/Lascelles/Clark for me. feel like Bournemouth are going to be whipping boys this year

            1. Make United Great Again
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Cheers. And yeah I'll downgrade Daniels soon, just more pressing issues at the moment.

  14. Mane
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Anybody got links to the guys on the scoutcast's teams?

    1. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Team 370

  15. COYS Down Under
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Would you prefer Morata or Jesus?

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

      Morata

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Morata

  16. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    ATTENTION: Everyone who transferred in Ben Davies, this is a reminder that he once played for Swansea. I repeat, Ben Davies used to play for Swansea City. That is all.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      ???

      1. FantasyNik123
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Interpret it any way you want to.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      He has played 4 games vs Swansea, 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 assist.

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

      ?
      You saying armband based on the score against old team scenario?

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      At his current rate, Ben Davies is going to score 304 points this year. Not bad for a 5.5 LB!

  17. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Ville Ronka's team ID anyone?

      1. FantasyNik123
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Thank you. Didn't notice they updated the ID. 🙂

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

        That was also a handy way to show that you are now higher than Ronka in the career HOF, Torresmagic 🙂

        Nicely done.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          He's ahead of me now but not for the rest of 17/18 😀

  18. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Hi, which one will likely get more points? And why?

    A. Chica, Salah, Mkhi, Mbemba (current team)
    B. Firmino, 6.0mid, Mkhi, Bavies
    C. Firmino/Vardy, Salah, Doucore, Bavies
    D. Abraham/Joselu, Salah, Mkhi, Bavies

    Thank you for your suggestion.

  19. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone see a Lukaku/Kane reversal this weekend... Kane 6 points, Lukaku 16 points? Still kind of have to captain Kane in fairness given the poll & his form & fixture

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

      Kanes out of August, the goals are going to come now!

  20. Red Card Rockets
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Yoshida not nailed? Take hit and get rid or hold and risk Naughton sub?

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

      Hold for another week and see.

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

      Probably wont play, Naughton defs will, don't know if its worth taking the hit to get rid of Yoshi, just wait a week

    3. Jason Bourne
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Would hold. He may just have been rested.

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

        fair play did make the trip to Tokyo-Jeddah, not a small trip by any means

  21. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Lukaku and chicharito to morata and firmino for -4

    Yes or no?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Can work

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Could work tbh

    Hey Guys, Gtg this week?

    Elliot
    Alonso/Cedric/Davies/Jones
    Brady/Hazard/Erikson/Coutinho
    Firmino/Kane(C)

    Foster/Lowe/Chalobah/Quaner

    Used 1 trade to do Mane> Coutinho but if any ideas I could take a -4

    Cheers

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Strong team given Haz & Cout regain their form and fitness.

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Good to go. Very bold Hazard & Coutinho punts. Confident they'll start?

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

        CL will help ease my nerves but I think so, hazard I'm pretty confident, big game vs Gunners I don't think conte will keep him on the bench. Coutinho is more the gamble but with mane out Liverpool lack big time, I think klopp's hand has been forced here by the red

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

      Looks good you know the punts.
      I decided to punt on Cout but not Hazard as I have Morata but very similar teams otherwise.
      442 and 433 looking like the most balanced teams to me.

    4. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      cheers guys!

    5. NestorC
      • 9 Years

      Gtg

  25. Red Card Rockets
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Worried Yoshida was benched?

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      International travels. Not sure about coming GW.

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

      and will be for many weeks to come, soon as VVD is back it will be him and Hoedt every week

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

    Is Wimmer nailed?

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Only as long as ShawX remains injured imo

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

        Cheers, need to look up for another cheap def

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

          Maybe someone like Lowe/Schindler/Laschelles? Gamez is a chance to save .5 on these guys aswell granted he can keep his spot

  27. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Bertrand, Mooy and Morata to Davies, Eriksen and Joselu for -8?

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Bertrand to Davies enough imo. Would not sell Morata before home game against Arsenal.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nah... Just Bertrand to Davies

    3. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Any other way of getting Eriksen without selling Morata?

    4. NestorC

      Sounds ok except Morata, try to swap Mooy with other cheaper mid, Gros or something

    Time up for Mounie, thanks for that 12pter in first week... 😛

    Mane to 4.5m mid
    Hegazi to Davies
    Mounie to Jesus

    -4pts. Worth it or knee jerk?

      I like the transfers tbh. U hv any other Pool player?

        Nope. Can do Pogba to Mane/Salah later on

          Seems good then. Will probably play ur WC by then if not already played.

      Geez, I think so, but I suck so far

    Why do people prefer Morata over Jesus for the upcoming fixtures?

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Morata is lone striker while Jesus points maybe shared by Aguero, Sane, Sterling, etc.

      1. MOZIL

        But Morata could be sharing it with Hazard or Pedro too

        1. Reiko
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          True but still not as extensive as Man City imo. Hazard could be a factor though and remains to be seen.

        And because maybe some stupid ppl payed -12 to get him and ended up -30p total. I was expecting that to backfire

      Peps rotation

    3. Red Card Rockets

      Morata coming soon, Lukaku going

    Will Morata score a goal with his leg this season?

      Nice observation, but does it matter?

      1. Reiko
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I don't know. Was just curious. Maybe if he gets his head banged up and has to wear a headgear like Cech, may affect his goal scoring chances, with the ball not going where he wants it go. Hehe.
