Gameweek 24 begins by the seaside as Brighton host champions Chelsea at the Amex Stadium.

Despite notable absentees for Chelsea, there is keen interest from a Fantasy perspective.

The Blues defence is heavily backed and, with five clean sheets from their last six Gameweeks, we should perhaps expect further returns against a goal-shy Seagulls.

However, with Thibaut Courtois missing through injury, there is disruption in the Chelsea rearguard, which could mean that owners of Marcos Alonso and Andreas Christensen may well be forced to seek attacking returns.

That’s not out of the question given that Antonio Conte’s side rank second for attempts from corner kicks, while Brighton have conceded more goals from dead-balls than any other side, including 12 from corners.

Elsewhere, the inclusion of Michy Batshuayi in Conte’s line-up suggests that Hazard will be sparred a false nine role, with Chelsea perhaps lining up in a 3-4-2-1.

Brighton’s formation is also significant, as Chris Hughton mirrors Chelsea’s three-man defence by handing a start to Connor Goldson alongside Lewis Dunk and Shane Duffy. That’s a situation to monitor given his price tag of just 3.9.

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

    Brilliant touch from Hazard at the end of the game giving his shirt to that young boy

    Hazard thinks giving shirts away will make people forget what lying diving cheat he is

      I can't defend his dive but when you are directing you hate filled bile at him it's worth considering for a minute what it's like to be the most fouled player in the league, which is in itself cheating.

    Christensen - worst pick for me this year. Rage transfer out; VVD or Maguire?

    1. luisgarcia
      • 11 Years

      wait

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

    3. Monkey Hanger
      • 13 Years

      Did it last week to Alonso. Feels good.

      VVD out of those two.

      1. gunner 2727

        I'm sure that makes him feel much better

    Those two top posts! Shows how different people think!

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The first one is the sensible one.

      1. gunner 2727
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Agreed

      2. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yet mine has more upvotes. People afraid to agree with me out loud but deep down they do

        1. gunner 2727
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Afraid on an anonymous fantasy football site. Get a grip!

          1. Sims
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Yes as bizarre as it sounds some people are afraid

  7. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years

    Extra Baps for Hazard for giving that kid his shirt.

  8. Dacra
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    6 from 1 in Alonso.

    OK start.

    1. UshFPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Same here, I'll take it

  9. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Had Alonso but could have had a double cleanie with Christensen:( sad times don’t need this unfortunate luck.

    1. UshFPL
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Christensen got 1 point

  10. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    22 from 2. Any good.He he.

    1. GaGa Over Gazzaniga!!
      • 11 Years

      Nah!!

  11. AccountAnt80
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Will Haz get a yellow for removing his shirt? Or doesn't count when match is over?

    1. Dacra
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He'll get booked for removing it at bed time tonight.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Same as when a def scores an 'own goal' in anger after the oppo score. They all count.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Thats a bit harsh 😀

    3. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      One for removing the shirt, another for indecently approaching a child.

      Looks like a red and three game ban

  12. Differentiator

    Morata back next week. Hazard back to a busted flush

    1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent

      Ideal

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Thought hazard was going to kick the kid

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The dad squeezed the life out of the child. Probably already planning what to do with the ££s it bring in on ebay

  14. Rainer

    Christensen essential?

    He's well rested for the run in!

    1. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      They looked f_cking dodgy at times though.

      If you throw enough shit on the wall some of it will eventually stick.

      1. FlockofSeagulls

        Remind me not to rsvp to dinner parties at your joint.

    1. Rik Waller

      Siggy could start to become an option soon

  16. Sims

    8 years, 6 months ago

    If it makes his owners feel any better, christensen has at least halped Chelsea keep cleanies in both these last 2 games

    1. ZeBestee
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He is going out of my team regardless.

    2. BrutalLogiC
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      this doesn't help me feel any better

    3. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Thing with Christensen is he isn't as robust as an Azpi. You don't see Azpi miss games because of illness or tiredness. Today was bad luck with Christensen, but other occassions it is less to do with luck.

    4. Alex_thekid
      • 8 Years

      Glad I finally got Alonso in for him

    What happened to Ramsey? Not in squad?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      Possible injury

    2. Fred54

      Queen can die in another GW then...

    3. MTPockets

      Seems not.

    Any Aguero owners out there that haven't captained him?

    Transferred out Hazard here.

    1. Teror

      My deepest condolences

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie

      Ouch

  20. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

    So everyone bringing haz nezt week and capping him right. Lol

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm not just saying this but I'm not even tempted to bring him in (serious)

    2. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I think im going to have to nip this haz scoring resurgence in the bud. That's why I'm planning to get him in

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Not everyone. Many already own him.

  21. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    I think the nicest part of that game was Hazard walking over to the boy who held up a sign asking for his shift for the entire game and giving it to him.

    1. FlockofSeagulls
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      You're getting soft in your old age horse. 😉

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Haha.

  22. Teror
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Alonso > Moses ?

    1. JustPark
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alonso injured?

      1. Teror
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        No, he just didn't score any goals. Moses cheaper too.

        1. Sailboats
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          LUL

  23. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    What did Hazard do?

    1. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A kid was holding up a sign saying 'plz give me ur shirt at the end hazard!' (could only happen in Brighton), so Hazard did that.

      1. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Class act. Sure all the kids will do that later 😀

      2. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Actually he was holding that sign up for the whole game. He even got a Manitoba during the game.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Mention

      3. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        it was one of these crudely drawn signs. Probably intentionally made to look crude to invoke empathy. No-one deliberately picks out a discarded piece of corrugated cardboard

  24. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Vertonghen > Moses?

  25. Alex_thekid
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Did Christensen get subbed of on 58 mins no clean sheet again ?

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      57' again

    2. BrutalLogiC
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      yes

    3. JustPark
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Unfortunately yes.

  26. Maddi Son

    Looking forward to bringing Walcott in as my differential. Hoping he plays well today but doesn't score.

    1. Teror
      • 11 Years

      Ok

  27. Jafooli

    Christensen owners stop complaining.

    It was obvious weeks ago Moses was the one to get.

    2. Teror

      Very different differential

    3. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Mostly will be auto-picked teams as well, I'd imagine.
