Redmond returns for Southampton as Fraser benched again

Southampton midfielder Nathan Redmond (£6.3m) is back in the starting line-up following injury.

He returns to the side just as Moussa Djenepo (£5.4m) drops out with a knock of his own.

It looks as if Redmond will sit next to Sofiane Boufal (£5.5m) in a central attacking midfield duo behind centre-forward Che Adams (£5.7m).

The return of Kevin Danso (£4.5m) will also be welcome news for Ralph Hasenhüttl, who was forced into playing a back-three with Djenepo as a wing-back in the win over Sheffield United.

Visitors Bournemouth have gone with a 4-4-2 formation which features Ryan Fraser (£7.3m) on the bench for a second match running.

On the flanks of midfield are Josh King (£6.3m) and Harry Wilson (£6.0m) while Callum Wilson (£7.8m) and Dominic Solanke (£5.4m) lead the line.

Also of note is another start at left-back for Diego Rico (£4.1m), who offers better value compared to the likes of Nathan Aké (£4.9m) and Steve Cook (£5.0m).

Southampton XI (4-3-2-1): Gunn; Danso, Bednarek, Vestergaard, Cédric; Højbjerg, Romeu, Ward-Prowse; Boufal, Redmond; Adams.

Bournemouth XI (4-4-2): Ramsdale; Rico, Aké, S Cook, Stacey; J King, Lerma, Billing, H Wilson; Solanke, C Wilson.

    Went KDB (C), should have put it om Sterling...

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

      KDB better option

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Not really

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

          Yes, really

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Could pay off.

    3. Scholes Out For Summer

      • 10 Years

      Went with KDB as well.

      Why complain about your captain choice the instant the week started? Why not just put it on Sterling if you want it on Sterling....

    4. Artemis Titans
      • 9 Years

      Mee too

    5. Bilbao Baggins

      You went him for a reason. Doubt yourself after the Sterling hattrick, not before!

    6. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years

      KDB is my cap too!

  4. tucaoneo

    If Son scores again I will definitely find a way in before he is £10.0.

        If? How dare you.

      Accidentally kept Mount in the starting 11 ahead of cantwell...

      1. Zladan
        • 6 Years

        Good. Cantwell yet to deliver away from home

      2. DeathoftheParty

        Heard a rumour Mount could possibly start. Sky sports I think?

      Didn’t have a clue what to do despite two free transfers. Done Zinchenko to Otamendi.

      Good luck all!

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

        Like it. Decent goal threat

      2. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        GOod transfer. Ota is safer going forward

        Aguero v Salah v Sterling v Mane v KDB must be a hard decision for a Utd fan!!!

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

          Ha
          It really isn't. I'm a practical fan. Also, don't hate all of those players.
          Love many of them as FPL assets as well as players.

          Just want them to play well. Also want Liverpool to not win PL & City to stay away from CL 😀

          Wish United get back into the mix within foreseeable future though

            Had Rico from the start, kept him on a wildcard, started him this week.

            On free kicks whilst Fraser warms the bench?

              It's harsh but they have no choice. No point in having security if they are going to allow a change. What if he was a user with malicious intent. I like Chef but if his email had been hacked it's because his password wasn't secure or he was a victim of social engineering. I sympathise with him but it's not FPL who are to blame

            3. Zladan
              • 6 Years

              More cool FPL_Chef for being hacked.

              Moral of the story is have a strong password if it’s linked to an account you care about.

              FPL can’t go resetting teams every time a team has been “hacked”.

              This is what they should do. NO special treatment for "personalities". FPL Chef should have used 2 factor authentification on his email. Lesson learned

                Don't beat yourself up. I had a week to think about it and did the same.

                  But why I decided to WC 20 mins before deadline I will never know... adrenaline and panic mostly 😮 Just felt this was the prime time to jump on Auba and Son whilst also sorting out the rest of my team and switching off the 4 premium defenders. Basically I was tinkering with my team and then I made this squad and was like omg I want it, and now here we are..

              Bit of a rush of blood to the head, did Sterling and Haller to Son and Aubangabang and capped Aub.
              No doubt Sterling will smash it now.

                Relatable but I instead went one step further and WC'd to do likewise but with Salah instead of sterling

                I would have done it too if only I had that money.

                  I did the opposite to the trend on here and captained Sterling.

                I'd be backing well rested Sterling (Midweek cup) 🙂

                A lot of people in my leagues have captained Dr Bruyne over Sterling in their teams.

                Is that indicative of people on here as well?

                1. Gudjohnsen
                  • 7 Years

                  No

                  Nope.. I went with the poll as per usual.

                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Don't have De Bruyne myself but if I did I'd have picked Sterling anyway.
