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.

    Morning All - ideas on this bunch?

    Foster / Elliot
    Baily/ B.Davies / Stephens / Daniels / long
    Pogba / Alli / Mooy / JWP / T. Carroll
    Kane / Lukaku / Firmino

    2FT 0.5ITB

    JWP major issue and midfield too light in general. How to improve ?

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      JWP and Mooy > RLC & Ramsey

      1. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        RLC like entire palace team didn't do anything since start of the season.
        Ramsey before Chelsea Away?
        Not great transfers in my opinion

    2. AndyCook
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Are you open to 4 at the back? Would you lose Lukaku? There's not a lot of play otherwise.

      1. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Open to 4 at the back
        Not open to lose the highest owned player in the game

  2. Eze Really?
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Fab to Chuopo M and Quaner ACarroll for free?
    Concerned over top teams fixture pile up.

    1. Jafalad
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nope. I have Fab and I'm keeping him to see if he starts next gameweek.

      Chopper M could be a flash in the pan. Need to see more games.

      1. Eze Really?
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I think the same as you but Mbemba and Kiko F injuries I have no bench cover.

        1. Jafalad
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Well I have TAA, Stephens, Danillo, Hunemonster and Mee with only Mee the sure thang out of that lot.

          When is Kilo F back?

          1. Eze Really?
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Waiting on news. news will determine moving him out too with Watford fixtures.

      2. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Choupo'a got more shots in the box than any other mid over the last three matches. It's starting to look less like a flash and more like his role.

  3. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed.

    Morning!

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

    1 FT .1 ITB

    A) Stephens > Jones
    B) Tadic > Choupo-Moting
    C) TAA > someone up to 4.6
    D) Save

    1. Jafalad
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Save although Stephens to Bavies is my likely tranny this week.

    2. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

    3. Kavorka
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

  4. Demel
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Foster
    Jones - Alonso - Bertrand - Trippier
    Eriksen - Ramsey - Pogba
    Kane - Morata - Firmino

    Elliot - Carroll - RLC - Mbemba

    Anything looks like it needs a hit or g2g?

    1. Jafalad
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Good team tbf.

      Just Mbemba but you may as well hang onto him at 4.0 enabler.

      1. Demel
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks.

    2. Awoniyiiiii!
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Great team...took me three attempts to work out you could achieve that with 100MM...

      1. Demel
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. 442, no Lukaku, only 1 heavy hitter in midfield and a cheap bench.

    3. skodaole2
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Two changes i would do are playing Elliot and benching RLC ahead of Carroll. RLC should start the next one and Palace must score sometime. Plus Trippier is not a sure starter anymore. No hit needed

  5. Bushman
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Just played by wildcard. Am I making a horrible top-heavy mistake?

    DDG / Elliot
    Davies / Soares / Hegazi / Lascelles / Mbemba
    Mkhi / Salah / Chupo-Moting / Gross / TCarroll
    Lukaku / Kane / Morata

    1. Jafalad
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No Eriksen is a worry.

      I'd have Firmino ahead of Morata.

      Hegazi will shirley be under threat now and save some cash with Foster instead of DDG.

    2. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      There are a lot of potential flash in the pan players.

      I would downgrade Lukaku to Firmino and upgrade the midfield. I also definitely wouldn't have Hegazi on a wildcard.

    3. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, you are.

    4. Bushman
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Haha cheers guys. I had Erikson but had to reluctantly get rid of him to squeeze in Kane and Morata. Who would you upgrade out of Chuopo or Gross? Both are OOP cheap differentials owned by 2% and 1.7% respectively.

  6. Kavorka
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Any chance of Sterling starting against Watford

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Therr is a chance.

  7. Gianfranco Zola
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Help..

    Davies Stephens Daniels (Mee 4.0)

    Eriksen Mane Tadic Redmond (Carroll)

    Kane Lukaku Chicha

    2FT 0itb

    A) Mane > Salah/other
    B) Mane + Tadic > Salah + 5.5
    C) Mane + Chicha > 5.5 + Jesus
    D) Mane + Tadic + Chicha > Mkhi + 5.5 + Firmino (-4)

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ramsey and Firmino in for Mane and Chica

  8. ooooo
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hart
    Davies-Cedric-Hegazi-Lowe
    Willian-Mkhi-Salah
    Kane-Lukaku-Jesus

    Main problems are Willian and Hegazi. I think i'll keep with willian for now as i dont see any of his replacements outscoring him. Hegazi to which £5.0?

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Can you get Jones?

      1. ooooo
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Not enough money and i have pereira on the bench so no more united

    2. Pompel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hegazi to Dawson. Wimmer or Holgate. if wanting to save funds

  9. Bobjonesjnr
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Any Suggestions Guys?

    Mane/Firmino to Chuopo/Kane.

    Leaves me with no Liverpool coverage but will be them back on a WC during the international break...

    1. Bafana
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure about Choupo

  10. seewhyaxe
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Any suggestions to replace Mane and Mounie?

    1FT, 0.5 ITB.

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino and Ramsey

      1. seewhyaxe
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I've got Ramsey & Alli in midfield.

        Kane and Kaku the other 2 upfront

    2. HST
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Mané to Ritchie
      Chica to Firminho?

      1. seewhyaxe
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I've got no Chica. (you meant Mounie?) I've got Ritchie already 🙁

        So hard to replace the 2 players with somebody satisfactory

    3. Pompel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Salah and Joselu

  11. HST
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Thinking of Silva & Chica out for free:

    A) Firminho, Ritchie
    B) Joselu, Salah

    Thanks!

    1. Demel
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Can A have Ramsey over Ritchie?

      1. HST
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Unfortunately not

    2. tokara
      9 years, 1 month ago

      nah....i rather u go for Vardy

      1. HST
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Firminho smashing Vardy stat wise even with the 0-5

  12. tokara
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is Calvert Levin gg to start again? Damn Koeman why bench the young chap...

  13. Emp
    9 years, 1 month ago

    gents would you wc from A to B?

    A:
    Elliot 4.0
    DUNK NAUGHTON DAWSON 4.0 4.0
    MANE ALLI eriksen salah carrol
    LUKAKU CHICO firm
    B:
    Elliot 4.0
    DAVIES JONES KOLASINIC TAA 4.0
    eriksen salah POGBA RLC carrol
    KANE MORATA firm

    1. Bafana
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B cause Chicha might be benched next week, given Ayew's GW and West Ham's changed formation

    2. Pompel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think It's actually worth a WC, but can wait a week or two. Liking B, though not sure on TAA gametime.

      1. Emp
        9 years, 1 month ago

        no you guys are misreading A is my current team B would be thw WC team

        1. Pompel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          9 years, 1 month ago

          That was my understanding, and I do think you should WC to B this or next GW.

          1. Emp
            9 years, 1 month ago

            ok well would definitely be this gw to get kane in now and dump chico who now a starting risk and not be forced to play naughton away at spurs

  14. Atimis
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Morning mates!
    Would use your opinions:

    A) Miki, Salah, Kaku, Chica
    B) Miki, Pogba, Morata, Firmino -4 +1.5ITB
    C) Miki, 8.4 mid, Kaku, Firmino

    Currently have Mane Miki Eriksen Kane Kaku Chica

    1. Pompel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      You just achieved asking the same question 11 times in 24 hours again.
      For the second straight 24hr period.
      Commitment to it 🙂
      Best you just get it done or it will drive you mad

  15. I am 42
    9 years, 1 month ago

    how as Hernández?

    any reason why he got subbed off early?

    worth to keep for another gw?

    thanks

    1. HST
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Stuck on the left wing with Carrol up top, got the hook on 62 mins for Ayew. Not great to watch as an owner.

      1. I am 42
        9 years, 1 month ago

        thanks for the input

  16. Pompel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 1 month ago

    G'mornin
    Team in OK shape, but need to shore up defense.
    Owning both Stephens and Hegazi, one of them needs to go to have 3 defenders for this GW. Other defenders are Bavies, Mee and Long.
    Who's the pick in the £4.5-5 range until WC in a week or three:
    A) Jones
    B) Cedric
    D) Naughton
    C) Lascelles
    D) Dawson
    E) others?

    cheers

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Awoniyiiiii!
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Potentially Dawson for GW5/7.
      Otherwise Cedric for me.

      1. Pompel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        You reckon Cedric is nailed

    3. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Maguire if you have 5.1

      1. Pompel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Good shout, OK fixtures coming up. Need to find a good rotation partner thern

  17. banskt
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Rashford good for 60-70 mins per match?

    1. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      You playing for minutes or points?

      1. banskt
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Both. I already have Jesus in my team and reaping the benefits. But if Rashford is also prone to blanks, it could become difficult.

        1. athreya
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I would say avoid. Pogba and Miki will bring home the bacon if you are dropping Kaku.

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He could start and be taken off for martial on 70mins
      Or the other way around. They will rotate all season

  18. Eric Banternaaa
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Foster | Elliot
    Cedric | Naughton | Mee | Danilo | Long
    Alli | Mkhi | Mane | Pogba | Carroll
    Lukaku | Firminio | Gabbi

    Danilo > Davies
    Mane > KDB

    Need to take Gabbi out at some point. Will struggle to get Kane in unless WC.

  19. Bafana
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Goodmorning guys, what to do?
    Please help, I'm knee-jerking over here.

    Lössl - Elliot

    Wimmer - Jones - Mee - Kolasinac - Mbemba

    D. Silva - Eriksen - Alli - Mooy - Richarlison

    Firmino - Kaku - Chicha

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What u got in the bank?

      1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Doesn't look too bad to me
        I'd sell mooy personally

        1. Bafana
          9 years, 1 month ago

          2.0 itb!

          1. _figu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            9 years, 1 month ago

            I'd do Mbemba to Davies or Silva to Salah

  20. Positive vibes
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Salah, Firmino, Mkhi

    Please choose 2 and why? (have Lukaku)

    Thanks, sorry repost.

    1. Holmes
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Salah and Firmino, gametime and probably more explosive

  21. athreya
    9 years, 1 month ago

    After wildcarding in GW3 I find that my pre WC team has outscored in both the weeks. Spilt milk and all that. Anyway what is the best option here.
    Forster/Elliott
    Alonso/Jones/Bavies/Ward/Lowe
    Erik/Miki/Richarlison/Brady/TC
    Chicarito/Firmino/Lukaku

    3.6 itb 1FT

    I am thinking one of the following:
    1. Chica to Vardy
    2. Richarlison to Alli
    3. Chica to Jesus
    4. Kaku to Kane.

    My preference is in the order listed. Any comments or suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

    1. Emp

      1

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      9 years, 1 month ago

      2

    3. Hot Fuzz
      9 years, 1 month ago

      sounds fine i didn't like Chicharito from the beginning so 1. will do

    4. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1 or 2 are the best moves

    5. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks all.

  22. ooooo
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hegazi to Evans?

    1. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Time to hop off WBA, Maguire?

      1. Bafana
        9 years, 1 month ago

        a no brainer

  23. JariL
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Firmino (BUR, lei, new, MUN, tot) or Vardy (hud, LIV, bou, WBA, swa) to score more in the next 5 GWs?

    1. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino owner but Vardy fixtures sure look tempting

    2. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Vardy will play more
      Minutes for sure but firmino has more upside. I am considering both as part of front 3. Already have firmino.

    3. Kun Tozser
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Vardy's fixtures do look good

    4. Respect My Authoritah
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Tricky. Both similar probably

    5. TheTinman

    The office was unbearable yesterday following my KDB (-4) > Mané (c) fail at the weekend... 😆

    Foster
    Davies Jones Bertrand Aké
    Eriksen Pogba Mooy
    Kane Lukaku Firmino

    (Myhill Romeu Carroll Long)

    Already used FT for Mané > Eriksen €€

    1.7 ITB, anything worth a hit?
    A. Long > 5.7 (Maguire)
    B. Aké > 6.7 (Mendy)
    C. Bertrand > 7.2 (Alonso)
    D. Mooy > 7.3
    E. Firmino > 10.2 (Morata) ok, not serious about this one 🙂

    1. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing this week. Next week Ake to Kola or Azpi/Luiz.

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing worth a hit

    3. Legomané

      Cheers both. Sitting on my hands til Friday night 🙂

  25. Positive vibes
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Groß or Choupo-Moting? Why?

    Thanks, sorry repost.

    1. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      CM. plays for the better team.

    2. Hot Fuzz
      9 years, 1 month ago

      non ..coz brigthon and Stoke

    3. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Choupo for goal threat in a better team

      Groß for assist potential

    4. Konstaapeli
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Coupu-Choo-Choo!

  26. GoonerByron
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Lewis Dunk seems to have decent stats in all the attacking areas for a defender.. Is he worth a punt as a 4.5 in the hope of goals coming over someone like Naughton?

    1. Emp
      9 years, 1 month ago

      problem is he only has one good fixture gw6 i dont think bournemouth away is great

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yep. But be prepared to have him on your bench when he scores

  27. Salahbrate
    9 years, 1 month ago

    lowe clean sheet hahahahahah how nice

    1. GoonerByron
      9 years, 1 month ago

      And got him autosub off the bench for PVA! 😀

      1. Salahbrate

  28. banskt
    9 years, 1 month ago

    On WC. Thinking of the following team:

    Foster
    Kolasinac // Davies // Jones
    Eriksen // Mkhitaryan // Mahrez // Ramsey
    Morata // Jesus // Rashford

    Subs: Elliott // Naughton // Wimmer // Carroll

    Thoughts? I know there is no Lukaku / Kane. But, I prefer a balanced team than a single 220 point player (x 2 for captain).

  29. FPL Maldini
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Which transfer would you do the week after next?

    A) Lukaku --> Jesus

    B) Antonio --> Ramsey

    1. waldo666
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Emp
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A if any

    3. RIDZ
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

  30. RIDZ
    9 years, 1 month ago

    give me any comment please

    A) Luka+Gabbi+Yoshida -> Kane+Bavies+Hemed for -8
    B) Luka+Gabbi -> Kane + 6.0forward for -4

    So sad Yoshida didn't play last week, his position getting uncertain

    1. athreya
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B. Assuming you have Pogba.
