Trippier could punish impatient sellers as Ings starts for Southampton

Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) could punish the 163,000+ managers who sold him for Gameweek 2 as he was handed his first start of the season against Fulham.

He remains the most popular Fantasy Premier League defender, with 22.2 percent ownership, even after missing out on Gameweek 1.

There is a full debut for Southampton’s Danny Ings (£5.5m) at Goodison Park, after he impressed in his cameo appearance at the end of Gameweek 1.

Hosts Everton went with Mason Holgate (£4.5m) at centre-back in the place of the suspended Phil Jagielka (£4.5m), while Leighton Baines (£5.5m) started at left-back once again.

Jonny Evans (£5.0m) is to make his bow in Leicester City colours today coming back from injury to replace Wes Morgan (£4.5m) in the starting line-up alongside Harry Maguire (£5.5m). Not surprisingly, Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) starts up front.

Ruben Neves (£5.1m) is Saturday’s most transferred in player with 388,000+ new owners, and he starts for Wolves at the King Power Stadium.

Bournemouth have named an unchanged XI for their trip to West Ham while Javier Hernandez (£6.5m) starts up front next to Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m).

EVERTON XI: Pickford; Baines, Holgate, Keane, Coleman; Schneiderlin, Gueye; Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Walcott; Tosun

SOUTHAMPTON XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Hoedt, Stephens, Bertrand, Romeu, Lemina, Ward-Prowse, Redmond, Austin, Ings

LEICESTER XI: Schmeichel; Chilwell, Maguire, Evans, Pereira; Mendy, Ndidi; Gray, Maddison, Albrighton; Vardy

WOLVES XI: Patricio; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Jota, Jimenez, Costa

SPURS XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Eriksen, Lucas, Dele, Kane

FULHAM XI: Fabri, Fosu-Mensah, Chambers, Le Marchand, Bryan, Seri, Anguissa, Cairney, Kamara, Sessegnon, Mitrovic.

WEST HAM: Fabianski; Masuaku, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Zabaleta; Anderson, Noble, Wilshere, Snodgrass; Arnautovic, Chicharito.

BOURNEMOUTH: Begovic; Daniels, Aké, S Cook, A Smith; Fraser, Surman, Gosling, Brooks; King, Wilson

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Wilson for sure!

      1. threeputt
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        sideways move imo

        1. Podge

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Ings? Extra 1M to beef up mid or def?

      1. Do I Not Like Orange
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I will get Ings, the extra million could get me Sterling for Mane when Pool's fixtures turn

    4. Podge
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      ings ?

    5. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Llorente, Solanke, Sandro, Rondon. Basically anyone who can walk on two legs.

      1. adased
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Solanke right on track for finishing on 200 points

      2. OPTA FPL
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        😆

    6. Planet Head
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Arnie, Jiminez. Maybe Wilson haha

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

      Thinking ings

      Mainly cos he is 1m cheaper than mitro....

    8. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Changing to 3-5-2 bringing Maddison

    9. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Zaha for me due to great fixtures and have .5 m in bank

  4. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    King owners...Who are you replacing with?

    A....mitro

    B...ings

    C..somone else

    Thanks

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      C zaha maybe. Main reason being wouldn’t be comfortable playing Ings every week

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Between Wilson and Ings for me.

    3. Feeling_blue
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      For me its Ings or get Kamara and use the 2m to upgrade my 4.5 mid to Maddison (already have Richarlison).

      I prefer the second option but worried by the lack of flexibility for future transfers

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Yup looking at Madison option...

        Let's see if I also need to remove kun tomo...

    4. jia you
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Tempted to just pull the trigger on King to Mitro now! 3 of their next 4 fixtures are decent and he's their main man!

    5. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Maddison and going 3-5-2. 2FTs.

    6. FantaCity
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      B ... unlucky not to score a second today, looks hungry

  5. Planet Head
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    West Brom banged in 7 today. Where were you last year, Phillips and J-Rod?

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Playing against the likes of van dijk and azpilicueta

    2. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Playing better opposition.

    3. Tired and weary
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Playing Prem defenders

  6. lordkippe
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    19 from 5.........

    Sanchez not travelled, Aguero(C) uncertainty. PAIN

    1. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I can "top" that haha. 5 pts from 4, Kun (c) and Sanchez 😛

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

      3.8 points per player. Not bad. I’m on 4.25 ppp.

    3. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      sanchez not traveled? Source?

    4. Planet Head
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Feeling it. Can't help feeling Aguero will start though

  7. the_arrows
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Worth doing King > Wilson before price changes?
    Have A. Sanchez and Aguero too.

    1. Cofinho
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Worth

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      If Wilson is the one you want, makes relative sense before tonight. I'll admit, I am tempted.

      1. the_arrows
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I have 0.0 itb. Not many options really. Wilson, Mitro or Ings maybe?

  8. Cofinho
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    I guess LamelA will play next match

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

    Eriksen fairly dead as an option while Trippier is on the pitch!

    1. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He’s done for me

    2. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Is eriksen off set pieces?

  10. The Baby-faced Assassin
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Would appreciate any feedback on this. Would you do -

    A) Jota > Maddison
    B) Jota > Fraser + 1 ITB

    (3-5-2)

    Or

    Jota > 4.5 and Kamara >

    C) Wilson + 0.5 ITB
    D) Mitrovic
    E) Ings + 1 ITB

    (3-4-3)

    1. KUNingas
      • 8 Years

      BE

  11. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone watch the Everton game? What did sigurdsson look like?

    Happy to be patient if his underlying play is good

  12. TheTinman
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Wolves won’t play against 10 men every week. Relegation looms

  13. Why Always Me
    • 10 Years

    Wildcard activated.. lol

  14. Ady87
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    The only reason I’ve even got Jota and King to worry about in the first place is Salah wrecking my team balance. I hope he goes quiet so I can confidently get rid. -_-

    1. Syd.

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

    1. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Personally waiting to see how Watford's Pereya gets on tmw then him or Maddison.

      However if Mane goes a bit crazy again on Monday it'll be two transfers to get him in for Erik.

      1. indiangunner
        • 10 Years

        Thank you

  19. Bubz

    Going to get Zaha in for King I thnk. Those fixtures are delish

  20. JustPark

    1. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Nasty tackle.

      1. JustPark
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        While they're leading? Weird decision.

  21. Business Cat

    This gameweek has been so bad I might watch WOS wrestling 😆

  22. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    I knew Erikson would be **** this week. But talked myself out of any subs so i'd have 2 FTs next week.

    Oh well. Ings scored so not all bad.

  23. The Tinkerman
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Doherty, King > ?

    A) Perreira, Iheanacho
    B) Luiz, Ings
    C) Bellerin, Ings

    With A I won’t need to play either vs. Liverpool in GW4, have a strong bench with good fixtures that week.

  24. HD7
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    De Gea
    Mendy Robbo Peltier
    Salah Richa Jota Mane
    Zaha Aguero King

    Subs: Hamer, Hughes, WanB, Tomkins

    Have 2 FT: Peltier King to Alonso Kamara and play 4-4-2?

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Alonso not worth it imo, less advanced than last season. But right to sell King and Peltier.

      1. HD7
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Alonso alternatives?

  25. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Whaaat? Sanchez not travelled?

    1. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      RIP
