We ease our way out of Saturday’s action with a head-to-head at St James’ Park involving two sides who offer limited Fantasy interest.

Newcastle United host Leicester City with Jamie Vardy the top owned asset on show.

The striker has just a goal and an assist from his last five Gameweek but remains part of 16.9% of Fantasy Premier League squads. His ownership increased by 169,000 over the past two Gameweeks with some 83,000 swooping for Vardy ahead of this match.

Harry Maguire is next in line and is included in 8.8% of squads – he will bid to guide the Foxes to their fifth clean sheet of the season, having gained a first shut-out in the last five Gameweeks last time out against Burnley.

As for Newcastle, their most popular Fantasy assets both miss out. Rob Elliot (25%) once again plays understudy to Karl Darlow in goal, while Chancel Mbemba (11.4%) is out of the matchday squad. Jamaal Lascelles (6.1%) is fit and returns among the substitutes.

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

    Daniels owners, keeping or selling as the fixtures about to turn really nasty.

    1. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Selling.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        For whom?

        1. rdamjan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          First choice was Kiko (but I dont know now because of injury). Maybe Kabasele is good option too. Maybe Kenny

          1. HamezMace
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            Yeah, will be looking at Everton line up tomorrow. Kenny would be great value in a big sam team.

    2. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      He's a nailed player. Rare breed. Not the worse player to own over xmas

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Really? Plenty of defenders in the 4.5-5m that I’d consider nailed.

        Problems come from the budget players are the bigger clubs...Jones, Rojo, Christensen....I’m waiting for Shaw to start tomorrow are start a melt down

    3. Bored Bear
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      ditching. probably for jones if he plays tomorrow

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        If Jones goes straight back in, its a good sign he’s as nailed as can be....but will he play a run of games over Christmas?

    4. SkeletONv01
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Look at his damn fixtures, selling ASAP. Together with Zeegelar, 2FT burned on defenders.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Fixtures are awful, just don’t see an obvious change

    5. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Got Moreno to deal with. He is on my to do list

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Benching him, I think. Bought at 4.9, so happy to keep on the bench for the next 3...

    6. johnnys balloons
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      I am starting seriously considering Holebas!

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Watford have a lovely run, but I have Marriappa already as my 5th.

        1. johnnys balloons
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          Yea, but "as 5th defender". Holebas is nailed in next 3 games and had great attacking threath

          1. HamezMace
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            Agreed

    7. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Want to sell but not sure who for

    8. Alex_thekid
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      I have other problems to sort Moreno , Zeegelaar and Niasse don't know where to start

    9. JJJ
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      need to Address keeper first, got Elliot and Fabs and although Fabs got me a clean sheet today they won't have many of those in them. I think Gomes or Pickford needs to come in while I can put Daniels on the bench for a week or two

    10. Magic Bean
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Looking at Kenny

  2. rdamjan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    3 defenders, 3 points. Sucess.

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      2pts from 2 but Dann coming in for Alonso 🙂

      1. La Roja
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Lol

      2. rdamjan

        epic:)

      3. Sharkytect
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Do you think alonso didn't play?

          • 10 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          No, I'm aware. Annoyed with him

        1. SADIO SANÉ

        Hahaha

      5. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        No you don't 😆

    1. hurrrrr
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      At least you’ve got 3 defenders!

    2. SweepaKeepa
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      -1 from 2 here.

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      1 from 4 defenders.

  3. Mattymo23
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Is Kenny best player for 4.3 or under

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Evertonian Cafu

    2. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      I'd wait and see how nailed he is

    3. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      for that price yeah but i don't trust everton

    4. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Ogabonna might be worth a risk with the dgw coming up, I'm certainly thinking about it

      1. AllanM
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Don’t think he’s 1st choice. Check when fonte and Reid are back.

        1. Pep's Money Laundry
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          Reid played today alongside Ogbonna & Cresswell in back 3

        2. Monkey Hanger
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          That is what I thought but he has played the last seven, every minute.

          1. AllanM
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            Came in for Reid then fonte got injured.

      2. rdamjan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        I`m thinking him too,but he can wait with Arsenal next.

  4. The Mighty Hippo
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    I'd love to see David Moyes do well at West Ham. Given the hard times he's had in his last few roles it would be great to see him turn things around for them and start to build a strong team in the longer term.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Fair play to him for today. He had a hellish time at United. Well done for him today, though.

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      I would like to see him get sacked after the shit job he did at Sunderland.

      1. The Mighty Hippo
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        🙂

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Let's face it, Sunderland are just a terrible team and are showing this in the Championship.

        1. Monkey Hanger
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          BFS had the same squad ship shape and in a decent position before he was nicked by England.

        2. Do I Not Like Orange
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          Yet Allardyce had us looking perfectly decent for the previous half a season. The owner and the core of the squad are shocking, but Moyes sucked any positivity and momentum out of the club and replaced it with a joblot of 40-year old Everton old boys.

          1. Somalion
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            "for the previous half a season"

            That's the key. Certain managers who take on these roles can get things running smooth for a few months, a bit of a galvanising effect, but long term the quality reveals itself. Pardew, as an example, has made a living doing it.

            I'm not defending Moyes' tenure at Sunderland particularly, but relegation was coming and had been coming for some time.

          2. Monkey Hanger
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            Encore, encore.

      2. Do I Not Like Orange
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Plus one.

    3. DJ1000
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      It was west hams cup final today. Had to play out of their skins and put loads of players behind the ball. Having said that liked his set up and putting Arno lanzini and Antonio up top

  5. Yozzer
    • 8 Years

    Masuka anyone?

    1. Holy See
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Small bowl please. Watching my calories.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Any naan to go with it...?

        1. Holy See
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          She's calling round later. Can bloody make her own 😉

        2. Yozzer
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          😀

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Ogbonna on the side.

      1. Holy See
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        😀

  6. hurrrrr
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Safe to say that my defence is in trouble

    Pope - ELLIOT
    Christensen - MUSTAFI - MORENO - ZEEGALAR - Naughton

    Bit of a headache knowing what to do with that lot.

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Zeegalar needs to go and hope one the others is back or think about taking a hit

  7. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    DDG
    Azpi Otamendi Ward
    Hazard Salah Richarlison Choupo
    Kane Morata Abraham

    Elliot RLC Dunk Yedlin

    Abraham + Yedlin to DLC(if he starts) + Kiko(if fit) for free?

  8. Benster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Anyone know what happened to Sakho in the Palace game earlier?

    Serious injury?

    1. Flynny
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      A few weeks I think

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        I dodged one there. If I'd 0.1 million more my transfer for this GW would have been Daniels to him...

      2. Benster
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Thanks

  9. Flynny
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Silva says kiko is a doubt for midweek....

  10. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    No snow in the North East, but it is perishing cold.

  11. johnnys balloons
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Thoughts on Holebas? He is back in spotlight again, right?

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Should well be! Is on my radar, too!

  12. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Benitez changed the team. Starting last week by dropping Elliot. Where has it got him? Nowhere. Needs to look at the outfield players. Hopefully Elliot will be back given the poor performances from Darlow

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      elliot was worse than darlow

  13. rocky7st
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    No brainer on Elliott to DDG? Only issues is 0 ITB after it. Fab is my other keeper

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Just stick with Fab and who cares about Elliot?

      1. rocky7st
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Fab fixtures don't look pretty Feb

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      If u have DDG then he should selected for every game. So get rid of Fab for DDG

    3. Nascimento
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      I'd do it in a heartbeat if you have no other pressing issues.

    4. JJO
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Fab to Ddg?

      1. rocky7st
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        That looks the smarter move then I can also move Daniels to Jones

  14. Salah’s Sonnet
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Hiya lads, hope you did well today, any ideas what to do here, specifically with Wilson & Elliot?

    Elliot
    Ward - Otamendi - Christensen
    Richarlison - Salah - Hazard - Sterling
    Wilson - Kane - Morata
    _______________________________
    Krul: RLC, Mustafi, Moreno 2FT, 0.0 ITB

    Wilson + Elliot > DCL + ?

    Any ideas would be most welcome 🙂

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Fabianski or Pope for me.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Cool, cheers Diesel, could always bring in DDG but would mean Mustafi > 4.4 defender and dont really wanna do that. Will most likely bring in Fabs 🙂

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Pope

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Cheers man, double up on Burnley yeah? 🙂

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          Yep, the most resilient side out of the top 4 so would be happy with a double up

          1. Salah’s Sonnet
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            Sorted, cheers mate, most likely bring him in then.

    3. Nascimento
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      So you need a 4.7 or under GK basically? I'd go with Pope (despite the fact you already have Ward)

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Yeah that's right 🙂 Pope is a great shout, between him and Fabs, maybe the double up would be more worthy though as Burnley have the better defence.

  15. lordkippe
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    got 2 FT but dont know what to do. Any suggestions ?. Happy with my big hitters, but could be happy changing a goalie, daniels or gross maybe. but dont see many good alternatives atm.

    Foster - Elliot

    Kolasinac - Dann - Mee - Maguirre - Daniels

    Hazard - Salah - Zaha - Gross - RLC

    Kane - Morata - Wilson

  16. JurgenRodgers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Really hoping tomorrow’s games go ahead..

    Mini league rival has Zanka 10 Pts
    Naughton 7 Pts sitting on his bench
    Also Kane VC Points

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Can't see them being cancelled. They've more than ample time to go ahead...

      1. JurgenRodgers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        Hopefully, they’ve had a bit of notice to prepare , fingers crossed

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      That's what I want. The game to go ahead and Salah / Coutinho to blank. Then Kane(c) becomes a big differential.

    3. DJ1000
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Looks like weather not as bad as first thought so should be ok

  17. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Two things with Tammy today:

    1 - Why tf isn't he in the team when he's their main goalscorer?

    2 - What was the big chance like that he missed at the end?

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      i think bony is starting to find his rhythm and both cant seem to play otgether for some reason, at least from the start

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        hmmm not good. Will ship this week I think

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Think you answered your own question.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        sadly , I think you're right. Time for me and him to part ways

  18. Legohair
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Need some opinnions?
    Fabianski-Elliot
    Kolasinac-Christensen-Moreno-Mee-Daniels
    Salah-Sane-Groß-Richarlison-RLC
    Kane-Morata-Firmino
    1FT. 0.6 in the bank
    I was thinking should i do Elliot to Speroni now because price is rising tonight.or Daniels out?

    1. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Need to fix Moreno/Daniels

      1. Legohair
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 days ago

        I think moreno is short term out.daniels out is also good move.maybe femenia in if fit?then next week i can do sane&groß to sterling&ramsay?

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 days ago

          Sounds good. But wait for Moreno news first, pretty sure he's out for quite a bit

          1. Legohair
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 11 days ago

            I do that,thanks

  19. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Planned moves are Azpi and Daniels to Christensen and Kolasinac -4. Exact funds but worried about Christensen being at 76% and probably higher by price rise time, with that being said best to take the plunge now or run the risk of a rise for more info?

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 days ago

      Take it now

      1. We Will Klopp you

      I'd be inclined to do them now 🙂

      stoke will be okay. they have decent enough players going forward to survive. no need to employ that cancer

      pretty horrific defensively though

    My defense is a car crash.
    Francis Kiko Moreno Mbemba .
    Only decent one is Kola.
    Need a wildcard.

      Nah. Kiki and Moreno will return. Mbemba is 3rd sub. Kola is decent. Just get in Tarkowski or Naughton for Francis.

      Prioritise Moreno I think

  22. zotter
    • 16 Years

    What are my transfer priorities

    Foster. Elliott
    Alonso. Kenny. Naughton. Ward. Mariapa
    Salah. Mane. Hazard. Richarlison. Rlc
    Niasse. Kane. Morata

  23. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 11 days ago

    Fabianski
    Bellerin Otamendi Alonso
    Salah Ritchie KDB Mane
    Abraham Morata Firmino

    Elliot Carroll Ake Zeegalar

    Time for Alonso to go to free up funds?

      I’m thinking the same

      yes

        Alonso >?

    Is Kabasele maybe even better pick than Kiko? Similar minutes, Kiko with 9 bonus and 1 CS more but just 4 points overall lead.

    Best max 4.7mil defender?

    Time to get rid of my Bournemouth players before their fixtures turn to horrible.

    Begovic and Daniels ---> Cech and Ogbonna for free sound ok?

    Messed up today. Got bench order wrong and put Kenny ahead of Long somehow with Mee starting. Not at all what I'd intended - owned Long all season just in case this happened.

    I'm assuming Kenny will definitely start tomorrow?

      • 12 Years

      probably

    One player i have been planning to sell is Kolasinac but seen people on here trying to get him. from what i can tell, his main (and pretty much only) source of points is home games against rubbish teams, and he does get some big scores in those games to be fair.

    2 of the 3 home games are vs chelsea and pool and the other 5 of his next 8 are away from home.

    surely makes more sense to sell rather than buy?

    1. zotter

      I sold him this week

    2. Ramboros
      • 14 Years

      Away games to Stoke, Liverpool, Chelsea, Watford, Everton, City and Burnley are not easy. His returns will be a lot more consistent in the upcoming run.

      He is third highest scoring defender, and the two above cost a decent amount more. Don't understand why, or who for. Unless you want to go cheaper and use the cash for your attackers.
      Defensively you are not going to do better.
