All eyes will be on Christian Pulisic (£7.1m) and Willian (£7.1m) as Chelsea host Watford this evening.

The American has been the subject of much transfer activity in the build-up to Gameweek 33+ after scoring at least seven points in each of his three appearances post-lockdown.

That has earned him 180,000+ new owners for this round, as Watford come to Stamford Bridge.

Even more Fantasy managers took an interest in the penalty-taking Willian, whose pair of double-digit hauls in Gameweeks 31+ and 32+ convinced 188,000+ to sign him up for Gameweek 33+.

Outside of the attacking midfielders, investment in Chelsea’s starting XI is rather scant by comparison, with the more fashionable options finding themselves on the bench.

Mason Mount (£6.2m) does still shoulder the responsibility of 16.2% managers worldwide and starts against Watford, but the 15.6% owned Tammy Abraham (£7.5m) is named among the substitutes alongside Marcos Alonso (£6.2m).

Those who witnessed Chelsea’s defeat at West Ham last time out will not be too surprised to see the left-back lose his place as he was largely responsible for the winning goal.

Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.9m) moves over to take his place for Gameweek 33+, allowing Frank Lampard to reintroduce Reece James (£4.9m) into the Blues’ starting line-up.

Hardly anyone stands out for Fantasy purposes in the Watford side.

Ben Foster (£4.9m) remains their most popular asset but is still only owned by 3.7% of managers worldwide.

Second-most-fashionable Craig Cathcart (£4.3m) doesn’t even make the starting XI, benched for the second away match in a row.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Zouma, R James; Mount, Kanté, Barkley; Pulisic, Giroud, Willian.

Watford XI: Foster; Femenía, Dawson, Kabasele, Mariappa; Chalobah, Capoue; Hughes, Doucouré, Sarr; Deeney.

    If the ref gave it, VAR wouldn't have overturned

      Yep

    Protect the referee's decisions! They're delicate little flowers 😆

    Pulisic seems like he wants to get himself inside the goal with the ball... So frustrating to watch

    1. Tempestic
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I feel like it acc makes Willian a great option coz he’ll be winning all the pens

    2. Hulk Smash

      I think he's fun to watch as an owner. He's very direct and in the West Ham game it felt like he was shooting a fair bit, although admittedly not so much tonight.

    Looked a pen to me. Not stone wall by any means but the defender didn't get near the ball.

        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Just checked. You cut your rank by 1/3. 20k is relatively a lot

    3. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      In the 500K range that's shocking.

    great clearance by loftus cheek

  7. AzzaroMax99

    6 years, 1 month ago

    My squad is a mess. No wc.
    I’m one step away to do a mayor surgery. -20 move maybe xD

    Grealish, Pepe, Son, Neves, Rash, McBurney, Targett -
    Salah, Martial, Bruno, Willian, Vardy, Greenwood, Justin

    I got all these guys but Vardy on FH this gw and did well so far but next gw looking awful for me. Maybe only Son vs Bou could stay but he is expensive asset.

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      What's your full team?

      1. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Pope Reina*
        Doh Aurier Targett* Lascelles* Egan
        Kdb Son Pepe Grealish Neves
        Rash Jimmy McBurney

        No wc

        1. Pep Roulette
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          You've a good team. -20 hit will make things worse for you.

          You're doing 7 transfers for -20, so I'm assuming you've 2 FTs?

          Pepe, Grealish, Neves to Bruno, Martial, Foden possible?

          1. AzzaroMax99
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Well, I’m a bit dramatic here xD
            I know that...actually thinking to do Pepe Grealish and Son to Mart Bruno and Salah(C) for next week.

            1. Pep Roulette
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Son against Bournemouth! Keep him this week at least!

  8. Bun Rab
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Chelsea find the other half of the pitch!

  9. Stevenshep

    6 years, 1 month ago

    Should I Wildcard this week? to:

    DDG
    AWB TAA VVD PVA
    KDB ASM CHO
    PEA DCL

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      PEA is cheating, no one calls him that.

      1. Stevenshep
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Haha PEA to JWP then! and I need one more player...

      • 11 Years

    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Tammy to TAA a possible minus 4 next week? Have this lot

    Maguire Boly Lascelles Egan Lund

    The temptation would be to lose Maguire to make way for Son to Martial in 35 (already have Bruno Greenwood)

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years

    pulisic is frustrating

    1. Niho992
      • 7 Years

    2. Young Lingard
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      He’ll pick himself up for the next game

      Over and over again
