Saturday’s events end at the Vitality Stadium with AFC Bournemouth hosting champions Chelsea.

A high profile fixture for Fantasy managers, it’s importance has been elevated by Harry Kane’s injury which helped to spark 320,000 investors in Alvaro Morata. More than 132,000 of those arrived from the Spurs striker.

Morata disappointed on his return to Chelsea’s XI against Watford at Stamford Bridge, producing a single point from a 60-minute display. But four of his six goals for the Blues have arrived on the road and the Spaniard has had more big chances in away matches than any other player.

Eden Hazard is the other prize asset on show. He’s considered to dip in points output away from home, having scored 12 of his 16 goals last season on home turf. Yet to score this season, the Belgian boasts four goals in his last three matches against the Cherries.

Fantasy interest in Eddie Howe’s side is somewhat limited, with Charlie Daniels their top owned player; he is part of 9.3% of squads, though 45% of his managers have benched him for this evening’s clash.

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

    Waking up later hoping for Vardy brace.

      9 years, 12 days ago

      Let's get the pray circle going for that. After only getting a goal from Zaha and having no Kane Coutinho and Aguero with KDB blanking I'm ready to jump off a cliff. I need Vardy at this point to produce!

    There's really no inbetween with Kun. It's kind of either sell or (C) him this week. Mad!

    Best replacement for Dawson (5.0)? already have Southampton and Burnley assets.

    1. Deano

      Let the GW finish first.

    Disappointed with Ramsey's Captain score - could have been a serious haul.

    1. walkman666

      You did good, and I said it was a Barney (Rubble) move. Kudos!

      1. Deano
        9 years, 12 days ago

        😉

    2. ZeBestee
      9 years, 12 days ago

      More like lucky for you. He gets loads of chances but he can be a very frustating finisher at times.

      1. Deano
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Luck is for people that lack talent and preparation!

        1. ZeBestee

          if you say so..

    Earrly thoughts on Captain next week ?

    On Haz for me atm.

    1. Meinhoff
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Kane or Salah

      1. william prunier
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Great minds.....

    2. william prunier
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Kane
      Salah

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Aguero for me

      1. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Or kane, if fit.

    4. PL Ball
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Harry

    5. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Kane or Salah

  7. Rik Waller
    9 years, 12 days ago

    All this talk of Pep being unpredictable, I think his lineup today was the most predictable yet.

    1. william prunier
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Luring us into a false sense of security

    2. ZeBestee
      9 years, 12 days ago

      This

    3. Greenbackbøøg…
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Sterling?

      1. fancy111
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Played 120 midweek, didnt he?

        1. Greenbackbøøg…
          9 years, 12 days ago

          So did other people who started

          1. Rik Waller
            9 years, 12 days ago

            Not his competitors for that position

          2. Sims
            9 years, 12 days ago

            like who?

          3. Rik Waller
            9 years, 12 days ago

            Actually not one person who played the full 120 midweek started for City today.

            1. Greenbackbøøg…
              9 years, 12 days ago

              I stand corrected then. Still I was surprised to see Sterling not start

              1. william prunier
                9 years, 12 days ago

                My hunch is the front 3 next week will be sterling Kun sane

      2. Rik Waller
        9 years, 12 days ago

        I admit this was the closest call. But he played 120 mins midweek I think. Pep showing his love for Sane and giving Bernardo more mins. Sterling is just not in their league unfortunately

  8. Greenbackbøøg…
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Please Davies start next week, we here at FFS would really like you to. Hopefully poch gives him a rest in CL

    1. william prunier
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Likely hood is he will, however in football manager it'd be Rose

      1. Meinhoff
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Great football manager minds

    2. Meinhoff
      9 years, 12 days ago

      If Rose doesn't start vs Madrid, and he shouldn't, then he will probably start against Palace imo

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Why shouldn't he?

        1. Meinhoff
          9 years, 12 days ago

          I suspect he is not completely match fit, especially for that Madrid side, but I could be wrong

  9. Bruno Bruno!!
    9 years, 12 days ago

    only positive so far from this GW was my transfer:

    Eriksen to Sane

    Rest of the team was dross

    i loathe pep more with every week....................does he not realise the mini leagues that hang in the balance on his every whim 😕

    1. william prunier
      9 years, 12 days ago

      He'd clean up if he had an account

  12. Dreaming of glory
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Kane not going to drop now? Are ppl bringing him back in without a clue if he will play?

  13. ZeBestee
    9 years, 12 days ago

    How Spurs will miss Kane in the CL if he doesn't play.

  14. Fred54
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Don't forget Price Watch hounds, the clocks go back 1 hour in the UK. Officially it happens at 2AM. So when its 2AM, clocks go back to 1AM.*

    *Only once though, otherwise you'd get stuck in an endless loop and this crazy GW would never end.

    1. william prunier

      Is that overtime for TorresMagic or an early night?

  16. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    9 years, 12 days ago

    How is Zaha geting no baps?? Did he kick a dog or something

  17. pakornk
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Is following casuals the in thing this season? Normally wouldn't want players like Matic, Fernandinho, Dier, Can, Xhaka but if they keep getting assists every other week (or even a goal), would it be better than going for Gross, Choupo-Moting, Mooy etc?

    1. Fred54
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Think about it, at that price range there is even more selection than at the higher price brackets. We just fine tune our picks at that price point to help narrow the options and find the gems. But of course options outside our hand picked ones can do well.

      Can and Fern aren't new to assists and goals.

  18. Optimus.
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Sanchez down

  19. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 12 days ago

    If you got in a Liverpool defender which would it be from following (cannot afford Matip and don’t want goalie)

    A Gomez
    B Moreno
    C Klavan

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      9 years, 12 days ago

      definitely not Klavan

      1. Optimus.
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Is he Klavan a laugh?

    Congratulations to Fabianski. The only one in my Sky Sports team defence to have the good manners not to get a yellow card.

  21. Deano

    So, the Team News on Carroll cost me 5 points. Anyone else get hoodwinked?

    1. Rik Waller
      9 years, 12 days ago

      How so?

      1. Deano
        9 years, 12 days ago

        To Rich for -4

  22. pakornk
    9 years, 12 days ago

    My team ok?

    Fab, Elliot
    Trippier, Jones, Stones, Ward, Dunk
    Hazard, Silva, Richarlison, Zaha, Carroll
    Kane, Morata, Abraham

    1.8 ITB. Should I save the FT or where's the weakness?

  23. Ode
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Ramsey is basically a 7m striker, his runs in the box are really threatening. If only his finishing was a little better he would be gold. Hopefully Wilshere keeps playing those Europa games

    1. ZeBestee
      9 years, 12 days ago

      More like Lampardish, If only he was clinical

      1. Sims
        9 years, 12 days ago

        if ramsey was clinical he'd be the same player he was in 2013-14

    2. tsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Aye I brought him 3 weeks ago, absolute steal for 7m. Just gonna watch him a bit tho, he is very inconsistent

      1. Ode
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Owned him since GW2, was really frustrating at the start but I kept my faith in him and it's starting to pay off.

    3. Deano
      9 years, 12 days ago

      I've been saying this for four weeks now. He is gold.

    2. Meinhoff

      He was awful, can't wait to get rid

      1. william prunier
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Who to?

        1. Meinhoff
          9 years, 12 days ago

          Lukaku probably, gw12

          1. william prunier
            9 years, 12 days ago

            Not that desperate to get rid of then!

    3. QueefParkRangers

      He's going for me

    4. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Over several games, he will outscore most forwards.

  25. camarozz
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Can't believe leader of my (most important, me as the defending champion €500 ML) used his TC on kane with Eriksen vc.
