The best West Ham players for their appealing fixtures

West Ham players are now on the Fantasy Premier League radar after their 3-1 win over Watford.

The Hammers have also have a favourable streak of fixtures coming up to further interest in their assets.

Norwich come to the London Stadium in Gameweek 4 having conceded eight goals in their first three matches of the season.

After that, West Ham travel to newly-promoted Aston Villa, who have just one clean sheet in 2019/20 thus far, which came against a goal-shy Everton side last Friday.

Manchester United and Crystal Palace are the next two sides to travel to East London (in Gameweeks 6 and 8 respectively), before Manuel Pellegrini’s men travel to Bournemouth and Everton.

However, Fantasy managers will still have to ensure they choose the right West Ham player to capitalise on the form and fixtures.

We have gone over the numbers from their first three matches of 2019/20 to work out who that might be.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those who have signed up for the new campaign can access it in full.

    Hi everyone,

    Which two would you favor for the next 4 gameweeks?

    a) mane + kane
    b) son + agüero

    Already have ster and kdb but no other cover for pool attackers. A little help would be appreceated.

    Cheers

      (Sterling + KdB + Aguero) + Son
      Vs
      (Sterling + KdB) + Kane + Mane

      I think B.
      Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

      I'd want a Liverpool attacker

  2. Maddamotha

    4 years, 7 months ago

    Any changes you would make here? Benchorder right, or put Lundstram first? 0.0ITB. 0FTs

    Pope
    VVD, Zinchenko, Coleman
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, Martial*, Dendocker
    Wilson, Pukki

    Subs, Button, Greenwood, Lundstram, Montoya

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I’d start Lundstram over docker

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        ^

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah surely this

      2. La Vida Latte
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        This

    2. Offs!de
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      bench order seems ok. Martial may gw 4 and Greenwood may start the match

      1. Offs!de
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        *may miss

    3. Maddamotha

      4 years, 7 months ago

      Ait, Lundstram it is then. Cheers.

    Which two GK’s in Wildcard?

    Patricio
    Leno
    Romero
    Cabellero
    Bravo
    Roberto

    1. Yankee Toffee

    4. ENZO SZN™

      Bravo and Grant for anti-meta team.

    Who are your differentials this week?

    I’m on Lanzini with 2.1% ownership and possibly (K)un. Haven’t decided who to captain yet tho

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Vardy I suppose for me

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Should get smth home to Bou

        1. Whats the Huth
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Hoping for a brace!

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            GL!

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      kun(c), Mount, Greenwood (starting), Cantwell

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Noice. Mount at 9.6%. Almost got him over Lanzini but unsure of his fitness

      2. Whats the Huth
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Didn’t realise Mount was still a differential

        1. Yankee Toffee
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Usually a differential shyness less than 5% but 9% ownership on him is def a surprise

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            *is

    3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Haller, Mina and Mane

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Hoping the WHam boys are in the goals

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Hoping for Mina from the World cup

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            So are we, that’s why we bought him. Hasn’t happened yet tho.

            He’s in my fpl squad, hope he dominates those set pieces like he did in the wc

            1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              5 goals and this season and I'll be a happy owner

              1. Yankee Toffee
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                That would be fantastic

    4. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Double Liverpool def is starting to feel as differential.

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Haha yeah, lots of casuals and some dead teams might have them. A diff on here tho for sure

        1. Konstaapeli
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Ouch! Haha.

    5. Farke in hell
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Pukki non-owner. Is that a differential?

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        That's more of a disadvantage than a differential

        1. Yankee Toffee
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          This

    6. jia you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Haller & Matip (3.8% & 1.9%)

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Matip! Now there’s a differential. Will he start regularly now?

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          His place to lose I reckon mate!

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Good price point on him as well

            1. jia you
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Many LIV fans think he has the nod over Gomez now and barring a dip in form should keep his place!
              Was written in the stars for me as I had 5.4 left for my last starting defender 😉

              1. Yankee Toffee
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                He’s def on my watch list atm

              2. Hairy Potter
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Hope it works better than the 5.4 I spent on Otamendi last week! I think Gomez is a good shout, and the only thing putting me off is whether I'd want that 3rd Liverpool space for someone else.

                1. jia you
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  As I'm going with Salah + TAA I feel there is only room for a cheaper asset in the third slot as I want triple City for a while at least!

    7. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Loving the Haller love

    8. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Son (2.3%) & Soyuncu (2.5%)

      1. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Is Siggy (7.9%) vs a tired Wolves side, a differential?

        1. Yankee Toffee
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Usually a differential is less than 5 but it’s close

      2. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Hope Son does better than last week

        1. Slitherene
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          The game will definitely be more open than it was vs Newcastle.

    9. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Otamendi was a failed WC punt for me last week. Will be shipping him if Stones fit.

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Getting Stones is like getting a gk, he hasn’t had an attacking return in 3 years

        1. Hairy Potter
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Agreed. I don't want Stones, I just want to know whether I need to ship Otamendi this week or whether it can wait.

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Tough call, hopefully pressers will be more revealing

    10. Ynwalfc
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Matip is a good option

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Tis

  5. Konstaapeli
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Alexis to Inter on loan seems like a done deal. So United are left with James, Martial, Rashford, Greenwood and that teenager Jesse Lingard for attacking options until january. That is poverty. Have to lol @ them little.

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Worst attack in the top 9 teams. Everton, Leicester, Wolves arguably better

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Maybe not everton actually. I'd say they are at par with Everton, depends on How Keane does and Siggy and Richarlison form

        1. Konstaapeli
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I'd say the overall quality is better on Everton. I think even Iwobi would start for UTD.

          1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah I can see him starting ahead of james and Lingard

    2. mookie
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Lingard being a starter it is truly sad for them. He wouldn't make the starting 11 in most PL teams.

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Long may it last!

      2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        That too after they let Depay, Zaha and Dimaria go. Depay especially had the potential to be great

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      What about that kid Macheda? Surely his time to shine now.

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Januzai too.

    4. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      They could move Eric Pogba-Pogba further forward

    5. Maddamotha
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Nothing has changed tho? He was never going to play anyways.

  6. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    No Che Adams in the Saints squad last night is a good thing right? Surely he starts saturday

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You know the answer to that dont you

    2. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Probably yes

  7. Freaki
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Emerson soyabean mings
    Good differential backline?

    1. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I’d have Ming in any PL team but not my FPL team

    2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Nah needs some Pool, City and/or Everton

  8. FPL Forward Thinker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Greenwood brave incoming

    1. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Brace

  9. abaalan
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Heaton / Pope
    VVD / Zinchenko / Digne / (KWP / Montoya)
    Sterling / Salah / Trossard / Mount / Dendoncker
    Kane / Pukki / (Wickham)

    Got 1 FT, 0.1 ITB - anyone worth transferring? Keep Kane? Keep kwp?

    1. Fodderx4
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'm getting Aguerro on a wild card but if i was in your position i'd give Kane 1 more chance and do something next week with 2 transfers.

    2. KDB4PREZ
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wish I had my FT or 1mill extra to transfer him to Aguero!
      I’d be shot of Kane if I didn’t rage transfer out Deulofeu after his substitution at the weekend lol

    3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Kane, KWP > kelly, (k)un (-4)

      1. abaalan
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yeh was tempted to do Kane and kwp to kun and lundstram.....but been priced out of getting lundstram now.

        Leaning towards last chance saloon for Kane though

  10. Fodderx4
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Alright troops, would appreciate if anyone could RMCW.

    Pope
    VVD Söyüncü Zinch
    Salag Sterling Mount Cantwell
    Aguerro Pukki Barnes

    Subs: Button, McGinn, Lundstram, Kelly

    And correct selection/sub order for this week?
    Cheers!

    1. ResultatFar
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Looks fine. I would play McGinn over Cantwell

      1. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Do this

      2. Fodderx4
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers Lads, probabaly right to spread the risk as have Pukki

  11. Hairy Potter
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    I'm guessing there won't be any news about Martial or Stones until Friday?

    1. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i think Martial has confirmed out for next game here.
      but for me.. i would keep him until gw5 and see the press says.

      Martial is a long term no9 for ManUtd if he is not injured.

  12. EL tridente
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Who to start?
    A) Guilbert
    or
    B) Cantwell

    1. Fodderx4
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B

    3. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B

    4. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B..

  13. Riders of Yohan
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    If martial is fit...

    Out: Kane + Trossard

    In:
    A) aguero + cantwell
    B) haller + kdb

    Would be for a -4

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B is the smart move but I'm going A

    2. Fodderx4
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A - Short term and captain Aguerro
      B - Better long term

    3. jia you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A) if you think he's a better captain than Sterling, B) if you don't!

    4. Riders of Yohan
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Thanks all!

    5. La Vida Latte
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I´m not sure I would do any of those for a hit. But B if you feel like hitting.

    6. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i would go for B

      KDB is long term investment.

  14. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    I have to play one of these three defenders this week.
    1. Lundstrum (che)
    2. Elmo ( cry)
    3. Hanley (whm)

    Would love to play Elmo but spot unsure now with Guilbert.
    I’m guessing start Lundstrum.

    1. Ynwalfc
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Elmo

    2. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      El Mohamady

    3. Whats the Huth
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Lundstram

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

      I'd play Lund out of those

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks. I’m going to have to shift one of Elmo or Hanley next week. Don’t want to rely on Lundstrum every week.

      2. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Luddy did attempt to score in last game..
        put faith on him.

  15. Ynwalfc
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Pope
    Zinchenko,Maitland-Niles,Ming’s
    Salah,Mane,Sterling(C),KDB,Cantwell

    GTG? Thanks guys. I know the bench is a bit weak but you can’t have everything. Was thinking maybe Adrian for Pope but there’s a chance Alisson will be back after the international break.

      I’d just keep Pope.
      Double City and Liverpool Attack. Nice.

      That midfield is epic! Keep Pope!

      Thanks guys. Think I’ll stick to the line up

      Keep pope. Adrian is just a transfer waiting to happen. It is gold to have 2FT after international break.

    Best move here?

    Heaton McGovern
    VVD Zinky Coleman Soyuncu Rico
    Salah Sterling KDB Martial Dendoncker
    Jimenez Pukki Greenwood

    1 Ft 0.6 itb

    A. Martial > Mount
    B. Jimenez > Haller
    C. Save

      • 10 Years

      Wait on Martial fitness,

    2. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A, seriously? A player doubtful to play, to a player who might not play?

      Do B, for the next 2, reassess and get in Barnes after the IB.

    3. Ynwalfc
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Dendoncker to Cantwell if you can

    4. Ynwalfc
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      And play 3-5-2

    5. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C- Save the FT

  17. Numbuster
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Aguero for 8hit or Haller for 4hit better?

    Current team

    Pope
    Zinc** Guilbert Lundy VVD (Montoya)
    Sterling KDB Salah Cantwell (Stephens)
    Kane** Pukki (Greenwood)

    1. lebon417
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd go with Haller

      1. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks for reply mate..

    2. abaalan
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Not tempted to keep Kane for one more?

      I'm in similar position but not sure worth hits to get rid

      1. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        i gave him a chance for last game.
        Otherwise, might City game i also withdraw him earlier.

        He just brace at the 1st game..

      2. lebon417
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Kane looked really bad vs Newcastle given that there was lack of creativity from mid and he had to drop back too often. If Eriksen becomes starter again i think Kane will look way better

    I ended up making some stupid reaction changes in the middle of the last GW... so going to WC to save myself!

    Please RMWC:

    Heaton (Pope)
    Van Dijk, Walker, Digne, (Pieters), (Lundstram)
    Sterling, Salah, DeBruyne, McGinn, (Cantwell)
    Pukki, King, Barnes

    Not at all settled on so many differentials wjth a couple of high hitters, and looking for cover... But I just can't get it right!

    1. Eze Really?

      very good

    2. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i think your team is g2g.

      I will ahead of Pope from Heaton here
      3-5-2 or 3-4-3 is looks balance enough..

      1. nicholasporteous
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Awesome, I'll do that. Always second guessing myself! Thanks

      King to Haller still on? Take money from Pieters and Heaton. Lundy is a beast. Cantwell's got game. Pope is set and forget with fixtures to come. No further back up required.

      1. Numbuster
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        probably is hard for him to sustain the unit from King to Haller here
        Differ 1.0 million

    1. Numbuster
      • 7 Years

      i think is g2g... as GK is Ryan.. its cant help much..
      pray hard for City doesnt score much there and Save alot of xG

        Thanks for feedback

  20. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Martial is out then?
    a Keep
    b to Lanzini
    2 to Lanzini and Mane to Salah

    1. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      a.. i think he just a short period injury.. and there is 2 weeks off before GW5 to start.

    4th Midfielder on a WC. Would you rather:
    A. Martial
    B. West Ham (Lanzini or Fanderson)
    C. Mount

    No United, Chelsea, WH players anywhere else.

    Who would be the best possible replacement for Martial for around that price range?
