Fraser comes through injury doubt for Blank Gameweek

After coming into Saturday with a yellow flag, Ryan Fraser (£6.2m) has started Bournemouth’s Blank Gameweek 31 fixture.

The Scottish international has been deployed on the left flank, while David Brooks (£5.1m) is in central midfield.

As expected, Callum Wilson (£6.5m) and Josh King (£6.5m) lead the Cherries attack.

Without Fabian Schär (£4.7m) and Jamaal Lascelles (£4.7m) at the back, Federico Fernandez (£4.4m) and Paul Dummett (£4.4m) come into Newcastle’s five-man defence.

With Sean Longstaff (£4.5m) still out long-term, it’s Mo Diamé (£4.8m) who sits alongside Isaac Hayden (£4.4m) in central midfield.

As expected, Salomón Rondón (£5.9m) leads the attack, flanked by Ayoze Pérez (£6.1m) and Miguel Almirón (£6.0m).

Johann Berg Gudmundsson (£5.5m) comes back into the Burnley side for Jeff Hendrick (£5.2m), with Dwight McNeil (£4.4m) retaining his starting berth on the left of midfield.

Ashley Barnes (£5.7m) and Chris Wood (£6.2m) lead the Burnley attack.

Demarai Gray (£5.4m) gets the nod for Leicester as they arrive at Turf Moor, while Harvey Barnes (£5.5m), James Maddison (£6.8m) and Youri Tielemans (£6.0m) also earn a place in midfield behind Jamie Vardy (£9.1m).

Meanwhile, there are three changes for West Ham which could boost the potential for Felipe Anderson (£7.2m).

The Brazilian keeps his place in the side while Robert Snodgrass (£5.0m), who has taken set pieces off him recently, drops to the bench to be replaced by Michail Antonio (£6.8m).

Meanwhile, Marko Arnautovic (£6.9m) comes in for Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez (£6.1m) and Pablo Zabaleta (£4.3m) starts ahead of Ryan Fredericks (£4.5m).

Bournemouth XI: Boruc; Clyne, Mepham, Aké, Daniels; Lerma; Ibe, Fraser; Brooks; Wilson, King.

Newcastle XI: Dubravka; Yedlin, Federico Fernández, Lejeune, Dummett, Ritchie; Ayoze Pérez, Diamé, Hayden, Almirón; Rondón.

              Put in the XI by a CL-winning manager, I might add.

              Lack of forward planning probably.

            The one silver lining from this GW has been picking King instead of Wilson in (GW30) and Anderson finally not blanking 🙂
            22 (-4) from 4 with 6 to go, if Alonso plays, fingers crosssed)

            RMFHT 🙂

            Ederson
            Luiz - Lindelof - Bednarek
            Sterling - Hazard - Pogba - Deulofeu
            Aguero - Higuain - Rashford

            0.2m in the bank.

            My FH32 team could be (starting 11):

            DDG
            Laporte Luiz Doherty
            Sterling Hazard Pogba Townsend
            Higuain Rashford Aguero

            or

            DDG
            WB Luiz Doherty
            Sterling Hazard Pogba Sane
            Higuain Zaha Aguero

            (team. B is A with Laporte Townsend Rashford > WB Sane Zaha)
            If Im lucky woth the price rises/drops, might even afford B with Rashford

            There is now way Jimenez and co start the second game of DGW32.

            Nuno will rest them for the FA Cup semi.
