Dugout Discussion – Bournemouth vs Brighton

The Gameweek begins with a Friday night clash under lights at the Vitality Stadium.

Bournemouth host south coast rivals Brighton in what is already a vital match for the home side.

Eddie Howe’s Cherries are simply in dismal form. They have suffered four successive defeats and have just a single goal to their name – albeit a goal of the season contender from Fantasy favourite Charlie Daniels.

Impotent in attack, Howe’s defence have also allowed 30 shots on target, more than any other side.

Such statistics will give Chris Hughton’s Brighton plenty of confidence heading into the contest, having sealed their first ever Premier League victory in Gameweek 3 with a 3-1 win over West Brom.

Pascal Gross inspired that performance with an 18-point haul made up of two goals and an assist. Fantasy managers will be fixed on his display in the number ten role tonight as the main point of interest.

Indeed, the match provides a sedate introduction to Gameweek 5, with few Fantasy assets on show.

The aforementioned Daniels is the top owned player in action. Still part of 12.7% of squads, the left-back has been sold by more than 222,000 managers over the last three Gameweeks.

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

    All the FPL Pundits said Gross was a fluke, a flash in the pan.

    How exactly do these people become FPL experts? Do they pass a course or have to get coaching badges? Or do people just decide that they are FPL gurus out of the blue?

      Capoue scored in the first 4 of 5 games last season, doesn't mean he was ever a good FPL option. Variance can impact over multiple games.

      They finish in the top 10k I would imagine

      It's only an assist against Bournemouth.

    6. MikeDuff

      one assist hardly makes a player a complete success

      I'd probably say over the course of the game they've done better than the entire world, so yeah calling them experts is correct.
