West Ham assets have been largely overlooked in the build-up to Double Gameweek 24.

With Liverpool and their host of options for the Triple Captain chip dominating the debate, the Hammers have slipped under the radar.

The question is whether or not David Moyes’ men deserve to stay there.

We are answering that question in this latest article, comparing the Hammers under their new/old manager against Manuel Pellegrini’s start to 2019/20, as well as ranking the Hammers’ best assets against the rest of the league.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those with valid packages will be able to access it in full.

Has Moyes improved West Ham?

    1. Wag the Drog

      Leaning towards C myself. I have Dunk instead of Doherty.

  3. My heart goes Salalalalah

    Seems like a lot of fairly high-owned players will drop in price tonight. Not of wildcards being played? I might drop 0.4 tonight

      *lots of wildcards

    CAMZY cant find your earlier comment on here. I have no budget no transfers just straight up swaps. You still think Guiata is the man instead of Gazza this week?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. Hold. Gazzaniga is there because I haven't had time to get rid.

      1. B Sharp
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Good man. Hope Gazza gets you some points chief! Good luck

      2. B Sharp
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Would you avoid Randolph at all costs?

  6. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Any risk involved benching Ings, Kelly and Lundstram?

    1. Jindaljain
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      No but only risk is Ings

      Why Rico over Lundstram?

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Playing the fixture.

  8. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    A or B?
    A. Soyncu -> Robertson, FT (TC Salah)
    B. Maddison+Vardy -> Mane+DCL, -4 (TC Mane)

  9. Connor's Calling
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    I've got 2 FT this week, but max Liverpool already. Would you punt on a WH player?

    Traore looks to have the toughest fixture among my mids, and only recently got him, so wondering whether a punt on Snodgrass or Noble (for a penna) is worth it?

    Or maybe Söyüncü -> Creswell for a week?

    Not classic options are they...

  10. RLew
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Pope
    TAA | Lundstrom | Holgate
    Salah | KDB | Martial* | Maddison*
    DCL | Vardy | Maupay

    Button | VVD* | Cantwell | Rico

    I'm leaning toward bringing in Mane, but can't settle on a defender for VVD. Who makes the most sense under 4.9 or 4.6?

    a) Martial > Mane, VVD > 4.9
    b) Maddison > Mane, VVD > 4.6

    Ultimately, if I bring in Mane and do not do double LIV defense, I may want double SHU after GW 24. Should I go straight to O'Connell or Egan and just bench this week?

    Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

  11. Don Kloppeone

    Evening all. How am I looking for this GW? Agree with bench/ order?

  14. Pukki Party

    Narrowed it down to 3 options. Have a tough time deciding on this. Really tempted to get Son in, but is it stupid selling Aguero? Think Aguero will get rotated.

    McC
    TAA Lundstram Holgate Aurier
    Salah KDB Moura Mount
    Aguero Vardy

    Martin Cantwell Greenwood Kelly

    A) Mount, Kelly to Dendo, VVD
    B) Aguero, Mount, Aurier to Haller, Son, Robbo -4
    C) KDB, Mount to Mane, Dendoncker

    1. The 12th Man

      Mount?

      1. Pukki Party
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Mount. Time to sell him i guess

        1. Flynniesta
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I sold Mount for Fleck last gameweek:)
          I put him as 2nd sub & he stayed there 🙁

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Mount def has to go. Of your options A is the least painful imo!

  19. EL tridente
    • 8 Years

    Worth transfering Richarlison out for -4?
    Will play Rico in the starting lineup

    1. el polako

      If you want him back then no.
      Waste of transfers and points.

  20. Rhys85

    Not much love for Deeney on here. DLC the better option?

    1. The Albatross
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I've gone for Deeney, better assist potential than DCL and on penalties. Sarr being out is a bit of a worry.

      1. Rhys85
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers, that's something to think about for sure.

  21. FPL_WILDCARD
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Looking to get rid of Richarlison for one of the Spurs mids, sadly can’t afford Son but who best to go for out of:
    A) Alli
    B) Moura
    C) Lamela

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Moura

  22. FPL Joker
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Who should I get in for Richarlison for next week? I've got 8.1 mill. I already have triple Liv and City. I was thinking a Spurs or Leicester player due to the crapness of their opposition but both are not doing great themselves.

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Tony Martial

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Martial or Moura

    3. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Grealish

    4. FPL Joker

    Start

    Fabianski

    Guiata

      ??

    2. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      as david brent said "go get the guiata"

  26. Legohair
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Any chance mane will rise tonight? Or kdb drop value?

  27. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    feel like triple captaincy should be something you have no doubts about, let's say about 10 times a season you captain a player without any hesitation, you put it on the player the second the game reopens after the previous deadline and you don't even revisit the choice. feel like TC should just be an extension of that into a double gw. only exception when you have run out of time/opportunities to use it then it's simply the best of what's left.
    if wolves (a) and west ham (a) were single gameweeks I'm not sure salah (sorry can't talk for mane as don't have him so can't guess the feeling) would be one of those automatic hesitation free captain choices. he'd potentially get the west ham armband if there were no better alternatives but that's it.
    that's the hesitation, it's that away record elephant in the room of course.

    1. Philman
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      But the fixtures come as a pair, so I don't understand the arguement AB

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        just that ideally i'd want at least 1 of the 2 to be a fixture where he's an obvious captain, not because he's uncaptainable otherwise as the fact is they do come in a pair, but it's the tease that there may be man city doubles for example with at least 1 more obvious captain fixtures within them.
        feel like we're all playing deal or no deal and we're down to 3 or 4 boxes and are getting a very good offer from the banker for this dgw, but there's that nagging thought that our box could still have the £250k. a good safe known vs a potentially great unknown that may not even exist

        1. Philman
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I guess my expectations are much, much lower as my 4 TCs so far have got me 3, 9, 3 and 1 point so far. Not my favourite chip 🙂

          1. applebonkers
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            that's actually impressive in it's lack of impressiveness. fair to say you are due a big one

    2. El-Kloppico
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      That's when you need to TC.. when younhave hesitations. At least they have 2 matches, in case they blank in one. And even if they blank also, you've got 4pts instead of 2.

    3. Drexl Spivey
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I agree. I'd personally sooner use it on a decent home fixture on the final day than a double away mid-season.

    4. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I decided pre season to captain TC Salah GW 1 against Norwich. Was happy with the outcome and no worries “ oh should I use it this week?”

  28. MOZIL
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Play Kelly or Cantwell??

    1. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      boring vote for kelly here

  29. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    did Tammy to Deeney. Now regretting it. Should’ve got Ings/DCL

  30. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts on Ayew?

    1. korbendallas82
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Ive gonne for him, because of fix. And to fit Martial and Grealish next to De Bruyne and Salah.

    2. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      if you're happy with a spot on the wing (no idea if andros is injured or just out of favour these days) then fine for the price as fancy tosun to be given a proper run at CF.
      ayew's goals seem to be worth 7 which is the ultimate tease

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Probably going to be shifted to wings if Tosun starts every week

    4. DarkGreen
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      IF u want cheap forward get Greenwood. He is gonna play in absence of Rashford

      1. Saka White Rice
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        But he didn't start against Liverpool ?

        1. applebonkers
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          this. his great finishing can mask his complete lack of presence at CF (for now, obviously still a kid)
