Attention turns to West Ham assets at Fulham

Attention now turns to West Ham’s devastating attacking players in Gameweek 17’s late Saturday kick-off.

All of the usual suspects have kept their starting places with Felipe Anderson (£7.3m), Robert Snodgrass (£5.3m) and Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez (£6.4m) in the line-up.

The Hammers should enjoy their afternoon at Craven Cottage as Fulham come into the encounter with the same back-four that was taken apart in Gameweek 16.

Joe Bryan (£4.8m) is at left-back with Denis Odoi (£4.4m) playing on the right again.

Calum Chambers retains his central midfield role while Ryan Sessegnon (£6.0m) is absent from the matchday entirely.

Aleksandr Mitrovic (£6.8m) is flanked in the front three by Andre Schürrle (£5.8m) and Aboubakar Kamara (£4.4m).

Fulham XI: Rico; Bryan, Mawson, Ream, Odoi; Cairney, Chambers, Seri; Schurrle, Mitrović, Kamara

West Ham XI: Fabianski; Masuaku, Diop, Balbuena, Zabaleta; Rice, Noble; Antonio, Anderson, Snodgrass; Chicharito.

      If captaining Kane at home against Burnley barely registers double figures then when can you actually captain him?

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        That's the problem, isn't it?

        Can't bring myself to sell him just yet though.

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Waste of funds mate

      2. Adriano
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Spurs better away than home. I can see Harry grabbing double digit scores away, especially with Eriksen in the team.

      3. Sarcastic Warnock
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Easy. Against UTD.

      4. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        He played Barcelona midweek.

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          And didn't have Son and Eriksen to serve him.

        2. el polako
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Barcelona B.

      5. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        He's been better away for quite some time but no one seems to notice.

      6. Forza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        When he plays Southampton and gets 24. It's a crapshoot, but he's not totally unreliable.

        1. HNI
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Means he is reliable?

          1. Forza
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            No, but the idea that you should absolutely never captain him is proven to be bogus many times every season.

    • how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Jimenez has been a cracking signing.

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        yep - very happy so far

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Whould you buy him now having in mind fixtures?

          1. Top Lad Dakes.
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            not for next wk, but after that I still would, yeah.

          2. HNI
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            For that price he is a must. Got him at rondon price and plus he plays for better team

          3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            Yes. He’s returned in the harder fixtures that most of us benched him in....

      2. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Had him for his streak of assists earlier on. Couldn’t wait to get him back after selling he is incredible value

      3. drughi
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        second week owning him, growing on me for sure

      4. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Sold him just before that Tottenham fixture. Watched him play & he was awful.

        He's still awful - just keeps ticking along with points though!

        1. HNI
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Entire wolves were awful then. Now they come out of the rut so has Jim and doherty

      5. ceejay106
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        If Jota stays fit I can see him and Jimi doing some real damage after Xmas. Jimi works incredibly hard and is involved in pretty much everything we do going forward. No way would I sell and I think he’s a better option than the other mid price strikers even at his current price.

    • FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Guys one quick opinion before second half starts.

      Is Son worth 1.2 m more than Fanderson?

      Thanks

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

        noooo

        No...they're much of a muchness

      4. All de Gea no iDier
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        No. And bear in mind he'll be missing in January when he goes to play in the Asian Cup.

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Why is he playing in that?

          1. Lh909
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            Because he's Asian

    • Hy liverpool

      Three certainties in life. Death, taxes and Josh King nationality jokes.

        Nothing funny about being Danish

          The Danes are the happiest people on the planet apparently. Must be having some fun. 😀

      Christie inc.

      Anderson party only getting started!

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I think I might have missed the boat. Might not get him in

    • FPLAdmiral
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Thoughts on Ederson as an FPL prospect?

      Thought I was being smart getting him over City defensive assets as there’s no rotation risk but they’ve conceded stupid goals and at 5.8m I’m wondering whether he’s worth it over someone like Fabianski

      1. FPL DONKEY
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        He's the best City defensive asset (bar Mendy) given none of them get bonus. But citys xGC over the last few weeks has been pretty average, so I would consider Fab if you could use the 1.3m somewhere else.

      2. HNI
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Ship has sailed. Now comes easy matches. Will be regrettable to kick out now

      3. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        City will get clean sheets - just leave him there for the season

    • Rocky FPL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Wilson to Chicha?

      1. MMN
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Brighton at home ... maybe after that but Wilson has shown he can score in any game

    • +
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison + Kane > Hazard + Kun?

    • #FPLBhuna
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Anyone considering the rash next week? Or is chica the safe way to go?

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Martial may be back tomorrow. So unless Jose drops Lukaku there may be rotation.

    • LǝgleSs e|even
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      How did Felipe Anderson look in the first half? More to expect in the second? Promising?

      Did not go double hammers unfo..

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Didnt do an awful lot

        But good to watch plays well

        Promising talent

        west ham did nothing .Excellent on counter .FUlham had all possession chances but have a league 1 level defense and gave away 2 goals in 2 chances

      Martial to F Anderson or Wilson to Chica?

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        probably the first one?

        1. Halftime
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years

          The safest option all right

      2. HNI
        • 11 Years

        Let tomorrow match get over. Personally keeping martial as matches are brilliant after Liv and lukaku is playing like a Morata

        1. Halftime
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

      2. MMN
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Lovren most likely to play every game whereas guaranteed rotation for B and C in GW 18 - 21
