Hudson-Odoi benched as injured Wood misses out for Burnley

The 3.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers invested in Callum Hudson-Odoi (£6.0m) were left in the lurch by Frank Lampard’s latest team sheet.

After an assist in each of his last three league outings, the exciting winger has been named on the bench for the first time since Gameweek 7.

Hudson-Odoi has been replaced int he starting line-up by Christian Pulisic (£7.1m) after the American himself displayed strong form of late.

It looks as if Lampard has lined his troops up in a 4-3-3 formation for the trip to Burnley, which might be a little bit discouraging for owners of Mason Mount (£6.9m), although he does start.

It is probable that the budget midfielder will be deployed in the central midfield trio alongside Jorginho (£5.1m) and Mateo Kovačić (£5.3m), having spent much of this season in attacking midfield.

Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) leads the line, of course, flanked by Pulisic and Willian (£7.0m).

Meanwhile, Burnley are missing Chris Wood (£6.2m) to injury, with Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) coming into the side to replace him alongside Ashley Barnes (£6.4m).

Burnley XI: Pope; Pieters, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Hendrick; A Barnes, Rodriguez.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Alonso, Tomori, Zouma, Azpilicueta; Mount, Jorginho, Kovačić; Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.

    Sorry if this was a hot topic not been on all day... Did they take KDBs goal away from him?

      Yes

      1. Zenith UK

      Yes

      FPL said that David Silva got the final touch

      1. Fred54

        4 years, 7 months ago

        Which would have made it offside and then not count...

    Mount is a bit of a lightweight....

    Will get hooked soon

      Assist banked.

    If only Pulisic could make a pass

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      He just got a hat trick

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yup. Still can't pass.

        1. FPL.team
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Doesn't need to.

        2. Syd.
          • 15 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          But he is pretty nifty at passing it into the net

    Considering Otamendi and Haller to Mendy and Connolly. Gives me the funds to do Mahrez to KDB/Manè the following week.

    Is it worth it? Would be for free 2ft.

    Pulli subbed off at 87mins for the standing ovation.

    Pulisic is better than willian and CHO

    1. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Brave statement that after he scores a hat-trick.

    2. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      He looks annoyingly like Mount, but at least the assist.

  21. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Great.
    CHO has no chance of starting anymore.

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

      I think there’s a chance he’ll start instead of Willian

  22. Niho992
