Sunday’s solitary fixture gets underway at 4pm as promoted pair Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United square up at the Amex Stadium.

With many now filling their forward lines with premium frontman, we get the chance to run the rule over a trio of budget midfielders today.

The Seagulls’ Pascal Gross has played a part in all four of his side’s goals so far, serving up two goals and a pair of assists in his last two outings.

He was the second top transfer target for Gameweek 6, with over 381,000 transfers in.

For the Magpies, Matt Ritchie has bagged four assists in his previous three, while Christian Atsu’s goal and assist over his last two starts has also turned heads.

Indeed Ritchie and Atsu, along with team-mates Jamaal Lascelles and Chancel Mbemba have been subject to heavy investment over the last week, with a combined 783,000+ transfers in.

Newcastle number one Rob Elliot is the most owned player for Sunday’s clash, sitting in 23.7% of squads after conceding just once in his previous three. Yet he is the most benched player in the Gameweek, with over 808,000 naming him among their subs.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      I'm more annoyed the ref didn't see it and send him off as it would've meant a Dunk bonus pt 😆

      i'm hoping they play ozil & sanchez so back to early season confusion
      and hegazi settles it with a header or two 🙂 then i'll have a decent score

    3. justmatt
      • 10 Years

      You happy with that? I'm on 65 with Kola and Rambo, so similar situation.

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Not really because I changed my captaincy at the last minute and captained Lukaku instead of Kane so should be on 66. But I will take what I've got. Hoping for Lacazette to perform tomorrow especially.

  11. Harry Ball Bag™⚽⚽…
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Thinking of a -4 to replace Pickford and siggy with hart and coutinho

    What you think? Take the hit or save for one week?

    Pickford

    Kola / naughton / mee

    Eriksen / siggy / Brady / Carroll

    Aguero / lukaku / lacazette

    (Elliot / Cedric / jones / chalabah)

  12. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Would anyone play RLC Vs Utd? Probably need to get rid of Antonio if injured and only have Carroll and Naughton on the bench. Getting in RLC to fit my transfer plan to get haz and Aguero week after.

    1. Harry Ball Bag™⚽⚽…
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yes prob score too 🙂

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I would not play RLC against his own team.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Nah bench him for that just the United game

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      RLC won't be eligible to play Chelsea the week after so keep that in mind.

  13. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Didn't Elliot make 3 saves in that match? Hmm something fishy going on there

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      2 recorded.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I see, 3 SOT from Brighton got my hopes up though

        1. Pierce34
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          One of them was the goal.

        2. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          1 being the goal

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            god I'm that was stupid from me. My bad

    2. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      FPL are very picky with saves. One was judged as a cross and didn't count. Same with shots that are saved but would just go wide.

    3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Someone in here earlier said one was deemed a cross

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      7th and 56th minute.

    5. F4L

      aye, cheers all 3 for your responses

  14. Steevo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Nightmare GW. Options:
    A) Firmino -> Vardy
    B) Aguero -> Lukaku(C) [this was the plan after the reverse transfer this week]
    C) Firmino, Alonso -> Morata, Jones (-4)

    Tempted to go with B considering Lukaku's EO is likely to be >100% next week.

    1. FantasyNik123
      • 12 Years

      Why would we drop?

      1. Digital-Real
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Did you watch the game? That was a 4/10 rating.

        1. VS10_
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Switching cheap mids to the one that scored last week works like a threat. 😉

        Foster (Elliot)
        Cedric, Jones, Mee (Clark, 4.0)
        Mkhi, Erik, Salah, RLC/Carroll
        Kane, Lukaku, Firmino

        Maybe Firmino out? Tempted to keep him now Mane will be back though.
        Eriksen to Silva an option to free up cash?

          • 12 Years

          I don't think any transfers are necessary.. That team is ideal! Maybe Foster -> Fabinski....

        3. trequartista
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Firmino to Vardy.

          Think one of Salah/Firmino/Mane/Coutinho won't play next week. And I don't think Mane will be rested.

          1. ryacoo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Firm came off very early last game though, surely won't be rested after that.

            1. trequartista
              • 10 Years

        Non wildcard team from last week would have seen me on 80 points for the week. Eurgh

                Well it could have been worse, particularly after the Spurs game.

        Should have played Foster over Elliot.

        1. Fantasy Gold

          Yeah, lost out on DDG 8 pts played Elliot instead....thought ManU would concede and I'd get some save pts. Wrong.

        Got 2FT - have to use one, but not sure for who?

        £1.4 ITB

        Fabianski, Elliot
        Alonso, Davies, Cedric, Jones, Mee
        Alli, Salah, Mkhitaryan, Choupo-Moting, Chalobah
        Kane, Firmino, Abraham

        Maybe Abraham to Hemed to allow some future upgrades?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          I would find enough money to do Firmino to Morata gw8... so any small downgrade would do. Maybe Mee to Mbemba?

          Would wait on Hemed, could get banned.

        Who is the best 4.5M or less defender with clean sheet potential in the next 3 gameweeks?

        1. Qaiss
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Naughton?

          1. 824545201
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Naughton is 4.6, either Fernandez, Mee or Simpson

            1. Cube
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              Yh Naughton is 4.6 and I think leicester is not really tight at back.
              So maybe leaning towards a Burnley defender

        2. Moose™
          • 13 Years

          Naughton?

          I would change most of it, sorry if that sounds harsh but not a fan

              Downgrade DDG and then upgrade your non playing players.

          United play Palace.

          double United keepers.....no thank you. What happens if Martial/Mata/Mkhi pipe up and become great options, let alone Lukaku

        5. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Don't like Jesus Richarilson and double ManUtd def

          Looks OK, I think DDG to Fabianski or Elliot and Stones > Azpi could pay off long term.

          1. Jericho

            Thank you.

          Get Otamendi instead of Stones. Defence looks a little light to me.

          1. Jericho
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Otamendi is more expensive and there is no cash in the bank 🙁

        8. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          How do you have 2 3.9 players, a 4.0 player, a 4.4 player, 3 cheap midfielders and still have a shit team?

        9. CechYourHead
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Obviously if everything aligns then you could see some pretty big returns with that squad... but you have very limited flexibility.

          Try downgrading one of your premium strikers and see what you can do with the extra cash.

      11. The Head-Ake
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Soo Im'ma get Morata in on a Wc before IB but should I sell any of Kane or Kaku to avoid the price rise?

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          No. Look at the upcoming fixture, Lukaku (CPL) and Kane (hud).

          1. The Head-Ake
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            I know but what do I do about the rise?

        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Almost daft to ask the question because of how well my team did this GW but G2G?

        Fabianski / Elliot
        Kola Davies Maguire Wimmer / Ward
        Salah D.Silva Ritchie / Loftus Chalobah
        Aguero Lukaku Morata

        1 FT, 0 ITB

        1. The Head-Ake
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          You copied me didn't you? I had Kane instead of Kun, Cout stead' of Salah and Dunk stead' of Wimmer lol

          I would also like to know this.
          I really don't want to do Mendy to walker/Azpili

      14. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        What to do here??

        Foster
        Bertrand Yoshida Trippier
        Salah Mikhi Choupo-Moting Brady
        Firmino Kane Lukaku

        Elliot Otamendi Gamez Choupo-Moting

        1 FT, 0.9 ITB

        Or do I roll my FT so I have 2 the following week to upgrade Firmino and change defence??

        Thanks

          Need to tidy up defence as you may soon find yourself without Yoshida and Trippier playing. Would do Yoshida to Cresswell this week.

          Firmino > Vardy
