More Norwich injuries as Palace get another clean sheet at home

Crystal Palace 2-0 Norwich City

Goals: Luka Milivojević (£6.7m), Andros Townsend (£5.7m)

Assists: James McArthur (£5.3m), Wilfried Zaha (£6.8m)

Bonus Points: Milivojević x3, Joel Ward (£4.5m) x2, Vicente Guaita (£ 5.0m) x2

For the third away match in a row, Norwich were knocked by an enforced defensive change in the first half.

The Gameweek 4 trip to West Ham saw Christoph Zimmermann (£4.5m) taken off with a foot problem, the Gameweek 6 visit to Burnley resulted in groin injury for Alex Tettey (£4.5m) and it was Ralf Fährmann (£4.4m) who drew the short straw at Crystal Palace.

Coming into Gameweek 7 with concerns over a groin problem, and Tim Krul (£4.5m) ruled out for a couple of weeks, the German goalkeeper started the match but had to come off after conceding a penalty in the 21st minute.

“Ralf Fährmann felt something after his first contact with the ball. He saved a cross and felt the pain again and had to come off. It’s not easy when two of your goalkeepers are injured and you have to make a change early in the game, but Michael McGovern was concentrated and focused.” – Daniel Farke

Fährmann came into Gameweek 7 with an injury and was forced off early against Palace

While there is no update on Fährmann’s present condition, a long-term absence for him, with Krul out too, could see Michael McGovern (£4.0m) become the only starting goalkeeper at his price point.

He came close to securing clean sheet points at Selhurst Park. Entering the field in the 22nd minute he was eligible for them as he played 68 minutes – but was finally beaten in the 88th by Andros Townsend (£5.7m).

So many absences for Daniel Farke’s men, especially when they are picked up during their away matches, is making it hard for us to truly assess Norwich’s capabilities on the road.

“At this level, as a newly promoted side and with so many players injured it’s difficult to dominate a game. You have to help yourself when you’re on the front foot. Each and every game is important. Of course, our biggest concern is the injury situation. It is a difficult situation but we must work on the small details. The only way is hard work.” – Daniel Farke

Pukki is now without a goal on the road since Gameweek 1

This 2-0 defeat extended Teemu Pukki‘s (£7.2m) goalless run away from Carrow Road to three in a row, without an attacking return on the road since the Gameweek 1 defeat at Liverpool.

The Finnish international did have a one good chance against Crystal Palace but was largely kept quiet by centre-backs Gary Cahill (£4.5m) and Martin Kelly (£4.1m).

That said, the attacking midfield triplet of Todd Cantwell (£5.0m), Marco Stiepermann (£5.4m) and Emi Buendía (£6.0m) looked lively for spells in the first half, fading in the second.

Cantwell, who, despite his best efforts, is yet to register a single attacking return away from home this season, went close to ending that run of bad luck but an excellent sliding block from Kelly denied him.

Cantwell was more of a goal threat at Selhurst Park than Pukki but is still yet to get attacking returns away from home in 2019/20

By all accounts both Pukki and Cantwell still had chances between them in Gameweek 7 which may be enough to convince their owners to hold onto them for next weekend.

Gameweek 8 brings Norwich back to Carrow Road, where they have averaged 2.7 goals per game this season, while Pukki and Cantwell have scored 13.3 and 7.7 points per match in front of their own fans respectively.

Meanwhile, upcoming opponents Aston Villa are yet to keep a clean sheet on the road in 2019/20, conceding a total of seven league goals across three away matches since achieving promotion into the top-flight.

“The players didn’t let me down today, they tried everything and gave their heart. We just weren’t effective enough in using our chances. Carrow Road will be a fortress again next week. We have to go through this difficult time together.” – Daniel Farke

Lewis hurt his elbow at Crystal Palace on Saturday

Farke will be hoping he can receive some positive news on the injury front this week as his squad still contains nine FPL flags.

Encouragingly, he got Max Aarons (£4.4m) back from injury against Crystal Palace, who slotted back in at right-back after a two-game absence.

“Max Aarons was solid. It was important for him to have these minutes and to be back. I was pleased with him. It’s the first piece of good news in several weeks that he is back. We need the quality and experience of everyone as quickly as possible.” – Daniel Farke

However, Farke will be sweating over Jamal Lewis (£4.5m) who fell on his elbow at Selhurst Park and is reportedly at risk of being ruled out long-term with a broken arm.

“I’m a bit more concerned about Jamal Lewis because he fell on his elbow and that could be a major injury. Ben Godfrey got cut and was bleeding a lot, but nothing more.” – Daniel Farke

Former Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has made the centre-back starting spot his own at Palace

Crystal Palace increasingly becoming a side worth trusting in their home matches, especially at the back.

In four league outings at Selhurst Park this season they have conceded just one goal and are unbeaten there since April.

Were it not for Diogo Jota‘s (£6.2m) late goal in Gameweek 6, Palace would have clean sheets in all home matches played in 2019/20.

That might encourage interest in the likes of Cahill and Ward although the next three visitors to south London are Manchester City, Leicester and Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Kelly was back in for the injured Mamadou Sakho (£5.0m) although it’s hard to say if he’s nailed on to start every match considering that the former Liverpool man is reportedly not going to be out for long.

“Mamadou Sakho is injured, but hopefully it is not an injury which will keep him out for months, so we’re very fortunate in that area. Of course, there are areas of our team where the competition for places and ability I have to replace injured players is a lot more hazardous.” – Roy Hodgson

Palace will be without Milivojevic in Gameweek 8 through suspension

However, trusting Palace’s attack continues to be a tricky exercise. Luka Milivojević (£6.7m) had been goalless before this game and while he scored from the penalty spot (where else?) he will now miss Gameweek 8.

That may be of some encouragement to a West Ham side likely to be without Lukasz Fabianski (£5.0m) for at least the next few weeks.

The central midfielder picked up his fifth yellow card of the campaign in Gameweek 7 so will now miss the next match.

“He’s enormously valuable, that’s why he’s captain of the team. He’s been a massive influence on and off the field, particularly on the field, with the way he plays and his understanding of the game.” – Roy Hodgson

Without him on Saturday afternoon, the Eagles may have to work extra hard to add to their two away goals scored this season.

Wilfried Zaha (£6.8m) will naturally be turned to for threat, even if he has just one goal in his last 19 at home.

The Ivory Coast international was instrumental in the win over Norwich. He was the one who played the ball into James McArthur (£5.1m), who on the penalty, while it was Zaha’s movement that helped him set-up Townsend’s late clincher.

Crystal Palace XI (4-5-1): Guaita; van Aanholt, Cahill, Kelly, J Ward; Schlupp, Kouyaté (Townsend 70′), Milivojević, McArthur (McCarthy 79′), Zaha; Ayew (Meyer 90′).

Norwich City XI (4-2-3-1): Fährmann (McGovern 22′); J Lewis, Godfrey, Amadou, Aarons; McLean, Leitner; Cantwell (Roberts 81′), Stiepermann (Drmic 66′), Buendía; Pukki.

      Afternoon everyone,

      A narrow 2 point win (54 vs 52) for the Community Champion wasn't enough to push them into 1st place, but that doesn't change the bragging rights they took from winning! Gameweek 8 is on it's way though, so we need another champion to take on the Scout Picks Team.

      The Community Champion picks a team to go up against the Scout Picks, within a budget of 83m and in a playable FPL formation. Whichever Gameweek champion beats the Scout’s team by the largest margin will win a £100 Amazon Voucher!

      If you're interested in applying, email Geoff (geoff@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk) with your FFS username and FPL Team ID.

      The Champion will be picked Thursday midday, so make sure to enter by then! The Champion then has until 11am Friday morning to send in their team.

      Good luck!

      Why isn't KDB flagged yet? Madness considering the lesser things players have been flagged for in the past

      1. FPL_Hazards

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Probably waiting for some other sources to report on it, other than those just going on what Sam Lee says - he's a good source, but imagine they need more than one before they can do anything (or official confirmation).

        1. Flaming Flamingo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Pretty sure he came off with the injury on Saturday though?

        2. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Was clearly in discomfort when he went off and missed training yesterday to go along with Lee's report of a potential groin injury. How all that doesn't warrant a 75 % I don't know.

          1. Rotation's Alter Ego
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            He also said he was fine though after the game. Probably trying to play it carefully because he's so highly owned - flag might trigger a mass of sales, which could upset a few managers if it turns out to be nothing. Who knows, just trying to put some logic to it.

    9. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      When Kante comes back does Jorginho make way?

      5.0 for a Chelsea mid on pens - if nailed - might be handy for a while...

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Meh. Just use Cantwell for home games + a rotating defender for his away games

    10. Visionaries

      Have 2 FT

      Sterling, KDB, Mount Cantwell*, Mane*

          • 8 Years

          Play kdb. If he is injured he wont feature and cantwell will come. Nothing worse than benching him and he starts.

          1. CRO KLOPP
            • 6 Years

          If you did B (its crossed my mind too) would it more or less rule out you wildcarding next week?
          If Kdb missed a game B would allow you to bench him too.

        Which is better fixtures for your striker:

        Set A: Palace (a), VILLA (H), SOUTHAMPTON (H)

        Set B: Sheff Utd (a), BOURNEMOUTH (H), PALACE (H)

        6. Boberella

          Close. I think B right now considering both form and fixtures

        Any UCL Fantasy topics about here?

        I’m top of the FFS league after week 1, but will likely lose the spot given KDB Mane Håland are seemingly out.

        Just 2 FT but there are very few desirable midfielders.

            League code: 4934MOSIMB

            I found the community article here but nothing since.

            How did you do GW1?

            I could well WC now too.

            City RM LFC all look essential this week.

            Then City, Juve, Barca(!!), PSG, LFC, Spurs look essential GW3&4.

            Therefore a WC this week would be well served with loading up on City, LFC and maybe Juve.

            But Messi & Neymar absolutely essential GW3&4.

            Hard to know whether to wait one more week before wildcarding.

            LWC in GW5 is very good as often that week most teams have something to play for.

            Well Håland is sick, however I would keep him on the bench. Sure to rise at first price rises and could do well v Napoli.

            Mane was not seen training yesterday so rumour is he is out.

        • 10 Years

        A- Abraham

          I would keep pukki, who’s your 3 striker?

        Aguero Pukki Cantwell(bench)

        Or

        Aub Vardy 4.4m(bench) ?

        So basically selling rotation + off form player for two in form player?

            Early but it’s vardy with good fixture

            1. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years

              Vardy playing Pool. Wait until next week

        3. SkeletONv01
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I know that Kun keeps scoring, but i would never put C on him, uncertain if hell even start or play 30mins, and at his price i want a player who i know is gonna play 90.

      • Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I feel as if I am treading water and maybe this is nit the forum to ask the question.
        My team is averaging 12 players the same as my rivals.
        Pope
        TAA Ota Soyuncu Lund Rose
        KDB Sterling Son Mcginn Cantwell
        Abraham Firmino Pukki

        Where can I change to something original? favorite choices are Auba Mount and Yarma but everyone seems to have these too.
        Too early to go back to Pool? Perriera and Vardy could fire.

        1. Klein
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Perriera and vardy could be gold but will soon be template imo. I am looking at trossard if fit.

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

          I’d def get some Leicester attack.
          Maybe Firmino and McGinn to Vardy and Yarmolenko/Mount

          1. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Mcginn scoring and cheap. Firmino not high owned. Hard this year IMO

                VAR was bought in to give small teams points against United. The real fans know the truth.

                  Replays weren’t conclusive. We’re talking mm’s so how can it be overturned?

                    I'm so glad VAR is there so that refs can't succumb to pressure at OT now. Its going to be a long decade or so trophy less. Buckle up

                Helped?! We were almost robbed. Some of your players shouldn't even be on the pitch but ref didn't have the balls to show 2 yellow cards. Hopefully an era of blind referees at OT is coming to an end with introduction of VAR.

            Pope
            TAA Otamendi (Robertson/Lund)

      • Warby84
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I’d be terrified to move either Salah or Sterling to accommodate Aubameyang, think it’s a downgrade longterm.. Is it just the swing of fixtures? I feel Salah due a haul and is immense at home.. Then possibly his first goal away from hm at old Trafford wouldn’t surprise me...

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I'd be amazed if he scored at OT. Barely strings a pass in that game.

          1. Warby84
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Vs that Utd team?

        2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Auba got 205 points last season and the way he has started this season, we can easily see him moving closer to that 250 mark this time around. Not too much of a difference long term.

          1. Warby84
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Surely moving your premiums around will just mess up your mind?

            1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah sure, I'm just saying he's not necessarily a downgrade long term like you said

        With Aguero looking likely to start in the champions league this week, do you think as an Aguero owner, it might be a decent punt for me to transfer him out for Aubameyang this weekend with Arsenal at home to Bournemouth?

        I would then captain Aubameyang also.

        Note – I have KDB in Mid, not Sterling.

        Or do you think I should hold and hope Aguero starts at home to Wolves and captain him?
