When do FPL players return from international duty for Gameweek 5?

A large number of Fantasy Premier League players are off on international duty between now and Gameweek 5.

We’ve pulled together a full list of which assets which be away from their clubs during this time, so we know which of them to monitor for injuries or late comebacks.

Already, we know that usual regulars on the international scene Sergio Aguero (£11.3m) and Gabriel Jesus (£10.4m) are absent from the Argentina and Brazil squads respectively, so the gap between now and Gameweek 5 should not have any effect on the Manchester City striker situation.

Nicolas Otamendi (£6.2m) is another absentee for Argentina meaning that options such as John Stones (£5.5m) and Vincent Kompany (£5.4m), having turned out for their countries, could drop out to make room for him.

Alisson (£5.6m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) are the highest profile risks ahead of Liverpool’s Gameweek 5 visit to Spurs, as they will be travelling back from the USA after friendlies with Brazil, the last of which being played on September 11.

Also, the travelling of Willian (£7.4m) after those matches could mean that Pedro (£6.8m) and Eden Hazard (£10.7m) start on the Chelsea wings against Cardiff, barring injuries.

Raul Jiménez (£5.5m), De Andre Yedlin (£4.5m) and Lucas Torreira (£4.9m) are other players who could be affect by jet lag following their matches in the Americas.

We’ve provided a full list of the players involved in the international break below, including the fixtures for each nation and the date and time of the following Premier League match for each asset.

    Best goalkeeper rotation if on a wildcard?

    Also, what's the quickest way to find out two defenders that rotate well with eachother?

      Very good bench.

      I like your team in general. Despite fixtures, I would bring Robertson in due to his attacking threats and bonus points possibility.

      But nice team!

        Good players on the bench doesn't mean good bench.

        I'd argue the balance is very off if you have that much money on the bench, so not a good bench

          hey, go and see the rest of the fixtures you will know my plan. Be it a bad bench or good bench, it doesnt matter i just dont want either one of the main eleven is dropped and my bench players are someone that wont get points etc. how isit off balance, i dont get it, so if my bench is players like neves or maybe cheaper then is consider good balance? Funny.

        Bearing in mind Robertson next 7 fixtures - Tottenham, PSG, Southampton, Cheslea, Chelsea, Napoli, Man City

        Id leave out Robertson!

      Yeah looks decent you have three good value picks in there maddison fraser and Moura.
      Keep an eye on spurs when Son comes back though as Moura may be dropped.

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I would bench Shaw bring in Fraser or Maddison... Think Watford will score

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Haha but problem is i think shaw will assist or even score! I am okay with leaving fraser on bench since i have wilson starting but maddison is making me headache ..

        1. Threat Level Midnight
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Shaw has scored 1 Premier League goal in his career. LOL

          What causes you to think he'll score next GW?

          A clean sheet would be a more realistic thought

    Guys, can I have some feedback on this, please? Currently on wildcard.

    Patricio
    Alonso; Robertson; Mendy
    Mane; Hazard; D. Silva; Pedro; Moura
    Kun; Wilson

    Hamer; Holebas; Bissaka; Kamara

    Thanks a lot!

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn’t bench Holebas

      1. Warby84
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I like it

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

          Cheers mate

      2. EgyptianKing
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Next game is against United, would you put him in the starting 11? To replace who?

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Possibly Moura.. I think Liverpool will win.. United I think will concede and holebas will more than likely be involved...
          It’s your call though

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

            Thank you for your opinion!

      3. Shatner's Bassoon
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        First on the bench is fine IMO.

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Yeah agree

  5. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    My current team

    Hennessey
    Alonso Mendy Robertson Holevas
    Salah Fraser Peyrera Maddison
    Aubameyang Aguero C

    Hamer Walcott Wan B Kamara

    Keeping an eye on Aubameyang
    Was think Aubameyang/Walcott to Hazard and Mitrovic would leave .4 but will wait and be patient with Aubameyang

  6. Captain Knackered
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    No love for Big Glenn Murray?

    Brought him in last week over Mitro / Ings guys a certified bagsman..

    1. ajones1608
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'm thinking of getting him in on GW 8, nice run of fixtures!

      1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Just looked they are fantastic fixtures.

        1. ajones1608
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Defo in my team for GW 8, hopefully he blanks until then!

    2. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I think he is great always overlooked him, he was mentioned in article on here.
      Nice under the radar type player.

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Would be great if he was 5.5

  7. ajones1608
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Got Robertson, Mane, Firmino. When should I consider letting go of one of these?

    1. Will Grigg's on Fire
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Firminio is with Brazil squad. He has a game on 12.09 at 00:30 GMT........do you think he will play on 15.09?
      Also he looked jaded against Leicester and this trip will not do him any good.

      1. ajones1608
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        I think he will start however maybe get 65 mins.

        Simply because of how important he is to there style and it's against Spurs.

        1. Eden Wizard
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Their*

    2. EgyptianKing
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      It has to be Firmino I would say.

      In terms of timing, the one that still allows you to bring Lacazette in

      1. ajones1608
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Thinking of going to Murray at GW 8 (insane fixtures). Then use the 3m elsewhere!

    3. HAMMERTIME107
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bearing in mind Robertson next 7 fixtures - Tottenham, PSG, Southampton, Cheslea, Chelsea, Napoli, Man City

      Id leave out Robertson!

  8. Clarity

    Can someone please tell me how you use the rotation feature on the fixture ticker?

    Thanks.

    1. Eden Wizard
      • 6 Years

      Clarity requires clarity.

      1. Clarity

        Thank you for your helpful response.

        1. Eden Wizard
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          On a serious note, I didn’t even know it was a feature so am too, keen.

    2. BadgersBoys

      Are you sure there is a rotation feature?

        Good chap.

  9. Wheato182
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Good to go?

    Foster
    Laporte - Mendy - Alonso
    Mane - Moura - Pereya - Hazard
    Ings - Aguero - Laca

    Fab - Boly - AWB - Stephens

  10. HaffNanner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Bellerin and Aubameyang out, Alonso and Mitro in for -4?

    It pains me to lose Auba after sticking with him since the start but I'm not impressed by Arsenal despite their fixtures. And I can't face watching Alonso vs Cardiff without him.

    And would you throw in Cairney to Moura on top for a -8?

    1. Eden Wizard
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      -4 yes

    2. Texas Pete
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah, stick with the -4. We all need a little Alonso.

    3. Puncheon Guly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      You'd be made to ship Auba now

      1. Puncheon Guly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Mad

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Keep Auba assess him as he will explode like end of last year.. 10/13

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

            You're probably right. Only other way I can see getting Alonso in is -

            Ederson, Bellerin and Cairney to Patricio, Alonso and a 4.5 mid for -8.

            Is that just as mad?

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

              I have a similar problem, to get Alonso I either have to take an 8 point hit(removing Ederson, Cedric and Zaha) or take out Robbo who I would prefer to keep.

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

                Think I’ll probably stick to just the -4

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

    Vardy IN anyone?

    1. Bavarian
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      any chance he can drop an another 0.1?

    2. Eden Wizard
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      In the bin maybe 🙄

    3. Kuzser
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Will most likely get him for Firmino. This week or next one

  12. Bonus magnet
    • 7 Years

    Got my fact of the day from reading this

    Neil Etheridge is the Philippines goalkeeper , didn't know that !

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

      Yes, he's also a model.
      He sounds very English though.

  13. EgyptianKing
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    A) Holebas; David Silva; Wilson
    B) Doherty; Fraser; Lacazette

    Please?

    1. Texas Pete
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      A

      1. EgyptianKing

        Thanks

  14. SOTHPAW
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Is Ward from Cardiff a good 4.5 mil or go for Billing who seems more nailed?

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

      it's to sit on the bench

    2. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'm getting Ward on WC. Too good to ignore at 4.5m.

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      No 9 worth it as back up

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

        cheers

    4. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I will go for camarasa instead - he looks more nailed in Cardiff

  15. Tigers Time
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Played about with my wild card and came up with this team which has most of the must haves:

    Patricio
    Robertson - Mendy - Alonso - Bennett
    Mane - Salah - Hazard - Billing
    Aguero - Mitrovic

    Ryan - Wan - Westwood - Success

    1. olly:)
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      starting Billing every week? no thanks

    2. Bonus magnet

        101.9

    3. jtreble
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bennett and Billing in your 11?

      1. Tigers Time
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Yes I just wanted to see if it was possible to build a team with the 'must haves' along with a couple of cheap players who would play most weeks.

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

          I have both Bennett and Billing. There’s no way I’m going to play them unless I absolutely have to. Sorry, not for me.

          1. Tigers Time
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            Fair enough and I don't think its for me either but on the RMT tool my points for the next 6 game weeks my points forecast has gone from 333.34 to 346.72

  16. olly:)
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    mf: Salah Mane Bilva Walcott Anguissa

    1.0 itb 1 Ft

    which do u prefer?

    A) Bilva > Dilva
    B) Mane > Haz

  17. Warby84
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    If Salah is supposedly overpriced then Kane is... I know he’s consistent but scored 80 odd points less than Salah last year.. I still believe TEAM SALAH is the way forward so many brilliant mid priced options this year

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years

      Way too early to write off anyone or endorse a particular player as a must

  18. jamie1972
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    What to do with Bailly, Bilva and Auba

    Could do all 3 to Alonso Maddison Kunor Kane for a -8, worth it?

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'd take the hits.

    2. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Wouldn’t get Maddison

      1. Chilli Heatwave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        But would take the hits

    3. jamie1972
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Going in....

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

      Chill, just take care of Bailly and the rest can wait

      1. jamie1972
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Going Bailly to Tripper instead

        Tempted to do Bilva/Auba > Maddison/Kun but will hold fire for now on that, no rush...

  19. Chilli Heatwave
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Any transfer needed? Also bench 4.

    Ederson,hamer(bench)

    Taa,alonso,pereira,mendy,AWB

    Salah,haz,mkhi,Walcott,4.5(bench)

    Wilson,ings,Aguero

    Thanks.

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years

      Bench - Hamer - TAA - Mkhi - 4.5

  20. EgyptianKing
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    You consider David Silva a good pick? I have Kun and Mendy as well.

    Those next 3 games...

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'm getting Sterling.

      Dilva always assisting the assister.

      1. EgyptianKing

        Unfortunately do not have enough funds for Sterling
