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.

      Wait a minute! You're telling me there's a sub 7mil midfielder who gets clean sheet points?

      Has 1-0 Bournemouth all over it

      1. Pacer.
        9 years, 12 days ago

        in what world does a game where chelsea could easily have had 3 or 4 in the first half have 1-0 written all over it?!?!

        1. Rik Waller
          9 years, 12 days ago

          Sense of humour fail

        2. Ha.
          9 years, 12 days ago

          The world where Sanchez, Jesus, Aguero and Lacazette all blank?

          1. Pacer.
            9 years, 12 days ago

            and which of those games ended 1-0?

            1. Ha.
              9 years, 12 days ago

          The same one that saw Spurs with better chances early only for United to win 1-0.

    Ake denied a goal.. Would have been francis assist

  5. pundit of punts
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Spurs dropping points today should mean Kane starting vs palace.

    i really need him as captain next gw vs hapless palace.

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Kun captain next gw.

    2. Live Lad
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Thinking the same. Spurs need Kane against Palace. There is a slight chance of his return vs Madrid apparently.

    3. Galza
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Hope so..
      Limited captain appeal again next week..

    4. DJDave1979
      9 years, 12 days ago

      I don't think Kane starting has anything to do with previous results. If he's fit for any league or CL match, he plays. If he's not or the docs say playing risks him being out for weeks, he wont.

    OMG! TM on 4 points!

      You're a little creepy.

      1. *Reformed-Character*

        Very odd

      2. Deano
        9 years, 12 days ago

        The Virgin reference didn't give you that clue?

        1. *Reformed-Character*
          9 years, 12 days ago

          Good one deano....

    Manchester City have made the best start to a Premier League season after 10 games, collecting 28 points (W9 D1) with a goal difference of +29

    The Blues are now unbeaten in 21 games in all competitions (W17 D4) - their longest run without defeat in their history

    Have now won their last eight Premier League games by an aggregate score of 32-5

        Well, you don't expect Michael Schumacher to ride a bicycle, do you? With his style he needs players who are good with their feet and have excellent work rate.

        Look how the players have developed under him. And lastly, he didn't spend 100 faking million on a dab boy unlike the Rich Man's Pulis.

          Geography is apparently not my strong suit

    4. Sim Simma

      Rotation causes the players to get really competitive

    5. pundit of punts
      9 years, 12 days ago

      The bald fraud is gonna take us to dizzy heights.

  8. Oven Glover
    9 years, 12 days ago

    So, who’s doing Sterling -> Sané?

    1. Ha.
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Sterling preferred for big matches. One could argue that Arsenal is a big match...

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

      Nah, I think both will get similar game time and have similar potential but Sterling is cheaper.

    3. Colonel Shoe 肝池

      pep = no one has a clue

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

      i took a punt on Sterling, Sane and Silva. Hedge the rotation risk. Looking at fixtures for Man City and elsewhere it looked like a decent risk for 5 GWs.

    5. Son is Rising
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Sterling > Sane
      Aguero > Jesus
      4 point hit

  9. Monkey Hanger

    Morata subbed at HT for Bats?

    1. Numb

      No

    that morata miss was difficult to digest with both hazard and morata int he team 🙁

    well today has been a real kick in the nuts

    1. Oven Glover

      Yup. Still Vardy captain and 5 more lads to save me. Could be worse.

  12. Deano

  22. diesel001
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Feels like one of those days where whatever Morata tries he is not going to score. Not one of his lucky days today.
