Ralph Hasenhüttl has made just one change to his Southampton side as they travel to Burnley in Gameweek 3.

The Saints were opened up time and time again in a 5-2 home defeat to Spurs last Sunday but, despite that poor result, Jack Stephens (£5.0m) is the only player to lose his place.

Jannik Vestergaard (£4.5m) comes into the back-four as Stephens drops to the bench, while key Fantasy assets Alex McCarthy (£4.5m) and Kyle Walker-Peters (£4.5m) retain their starting berths in defence.

It is also an unchanged attacking setup for Southampton as Moussa Djenepo (£5.5m) and Stuart Armstrong (£5.5m) provide the width for Danny Ings (£8.4m) and Che Adams (£5.9m).

Meanwhile, Burnley are painfully short of key players once again, especially in defence. Sean Dyche is forced into pairing Jimmy Dunne (£4.0m) with Kevin Long (£4.5m) at centre-back.

Dale Stephens (£4.5m) makes his debut in central midfield, while a shortage of wider options pushes Josh Brownhill (£5.0m) onto the right.

Chris Wood (£6.5m) leads the line, as per usual, but injuries to his team-mates means a first Premier League start of the season for Matej Vydra (£5.0m).

Burnley XI (4-4-2): Pope; C Taylor, Dunne, K Long, Bardsley; McNeil, Westwood, D Stephens, Brownhill; Vydra, Wood.

Southampton XI (4-4-2): A McCarthy; Bertrand, Bednarek, Vestergaard, Walker-Peters; Djenepo, Ward-Prowse, Romeu, Armstrong; Adams, Ings.

    How did Werner play?

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Poor display.

    2. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      OK without impressing. He played on the wing and hit the crossbar in first half.

    3. Tcheco
      6 years, 27 days ago

      On the left which is a worry

    4. Ronniie
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Terrible. He looked lost, changed positions very frequently and didn’t get enough of the balls. He also had no spaces to run into and only notable contributions were the shot against the crossbar and the assist of assist of CHO’s goal.

    5. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Thanks for that. Ready made transfer out then.

    6. Supertrooper
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Terrible, lost possession countless times and was anywhere except where the danger was. Did hit the crossbar though.

  2. Vazza
    6 years, 27 days ago

    It appears that Bruno is going to fall in price in a day or two. Anyone know why so many people are selling him?

    1. TRIPOS TOPPER
      6 years, 27 days ago

      to bring in KdB I guess

    2. Pedram
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Cause United are shite

    3. Paulie Walnuts
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Garbage

    4. RamboRN
      6 years, 27 days ago

      He won't fall now I don't think. He was on the way down till his points today. Now people will stop getting rid of him.

  3. Ronniie
    6 years, 27 days ago

    From the game I saw, I don’t think WBA is a tasty fixture. They’re such a negative team and load the box with so many players. Chelsea’s goals weren’t spectacular. Only a team with very creative players might thrive against them for assets to haul.

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      6 years, 27 days ago

      What? Every team that's played them has scored at least 3...

    2. George Sillett
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Surely a wind up.

    3. Bram
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Have you not got to the 2nd half yet?

    4. Ronniie
      6 years, 27 days ago

      I hear y’all. Maybe Chelsea were just as poor because I wasn’t impressed with even the 2nd half.

  4. UshFPL
    6 years, 27 days ago

    How has Reece James got a bonus point with 3 goals conceded and a yellow card?

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      He created tonnes of chances

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      From spamming that cross button.

      Chances Created/Key Passes.

    3. Piggs Boson
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Crosses and chances created. https://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/matches/2128314/

      Check the rules on the FPL site too. They explicitly state what gives BPS, so you can get players to take advantage of it. James is a BPS babe.

      1. Piggs Boson
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Click the scoring tab, and scroll down to the BPS section: https://fantasy.premierleague.com/help/rules

      2. stat sifter 888888
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Shouldn't Azpi's assist over-ride that though? Or Bartley's goal? I like James as a player just don't see how that performance justifies a BPS over those players. I'm talking objectively here, not expecting you to change the BPS.

    4. stat sifter 888888
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yeah it doesn't really make sense considering that Azpilicueta got an assist and Bartley scored a goal. Remember a few like that with Trent in the past.

    5. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Just to wipe away those tears.

  5. Tcheco
    6 years, 27 days ago

    A. TAA + Foden

    B. Robbo + Zaha

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      A

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      A

    3. g40steve
      6 years, 27 days ago

      B both play every game

    4. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      B.

      Foden has one more GW at best before rotation starts hitting.

  6. Planet Jo
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Could I get some opinions please?

    I know many people are doing Werner to Jimi....
    ...but would you do:

    A: Wilson (BUR) to Jimi (FUL) with 1FT?
    B: Hold Wilson, and watch Jimi rise by 0.2m over the next week?

    1. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      A

    2. Paulie Walnuts
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Jimi - A

    3. antis0cial
      6 years, 27 days ago

      A

  7. Ninjaa
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Egan and Werner to Saiss and DCL worth a 4 point hit?????

    1. Ninjaa
      6 years, 27 days ago

      DCL could be Jiminez instead but I have Podence already??

    2. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Definitely

    3. Carlton P
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Absolutely

    4. Planet Jo
      6 years, 27 days ago

      I would say so, yes.
      2pts + 2pts plays 6pts and 6pts?

    5. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes

    6. Ninjaa
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Thanks chaps?
      DCL or Jimenez???

      1. djoker_nole
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Would go for Jimi personally. I have Rich and Jimi both

  8. BenDavies
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Anyone know where to find the estimated captaincy for Werner?

      1. BenDavies
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Cheers. Big captaincy percentage for Werner, wow!

        1. Check out my Umtiti's
          6 years, 27 days ago

          Let's face it. You're only asking to rub your sweaty nutsack into the faces of those who captained Werner this gameweek.

        2. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 27 days ago

          Kinda big. Not huge. Make sure you're not looking at effective ownership.

    1. Hazz

      6 years, 27 days ago

      12.51% Overall
      10.79% Top 10K

      1. Hattrick Harry
        6 years, 27 days ago

        But not me

  9. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Werner > ...
    1) Jimenez
    2) DCL
    3) Martial
    4) Vardy

    Already have Ings.

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      1 and 2 in equal measures

    2. fr3d
      6 years, 27 days ago

      3

    3. Carlton P
      6 years, 27 days ago

      2 0r 1

    4. Prison Mike
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Why would martial be an option?

      I’m looking to transfer him out rather than Werner

      1. fr3d
        6 years, 27 days ago

        😆

      2. jdp219
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Understandable. It's more trying to jump on before he comes good. He has the fixtures, and he'll surely get on the score sheet soon enough.

    5. antis0cial
      6 years, 27 days ago

      1

    6. Bram
      6 years, 27 days ago

      1 unless you'd do something significant with the extra cash from DCL.

  10. Chilli Heatwave
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Bottomed.

    Kai to Ings for 2 transfers? Exact price and aware of price changes

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes

    2. Planet Jo
      6 years, 27 days ago

      4 strikers??

      1. Chilli Heatwave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 27 days ago

        No- havertz to 4.5 Brewster to Ings. Have DCL and Jiminez

  11. Tonyawesome69
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Jimenez worth transferring in tonight?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes

    2. JBG
      6 years, 27 days ago

      If you can wait out his price rise, than do. Might get injured, never know.

    3. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes

    4. Babelcopter
      6 years, 27 days ago

      yes

    5. Pukkipartyy
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yep

  12. Obi Wan Elokobi
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Thoughts on the following transfers?

    Bruno, Werner and Brewster to Ings, Jimi and Barnes

    1. Bartowski
      6 years, 27 days ago

      I'd just do Werner to Jime or Ings. Not sure why you'd do all of those unless its a WC

    2. stat sifter 888888
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Like it but Penandes does look like he will get a few more based on today's showing.

  13. Atimis
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Werner Bissouma to Jimenez Foden?

    Or would you find better options?

    1. n-doggg
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Do the first one. Then wait

      1. Atimis
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Would be outpriced tho

    2. Pukkipartyy
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes and today

  14. Sarri-ball
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Wood or mitro out for jimmy?

    Want to keep werner

    1. The Big Fella
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Wood for me - any goals at Fulham go through Mitro

  15. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Has anyone got a bonus point from a score of zero before, like Reece James today?

    1. Pukki Party
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Doubt it, Digne has got bonus with no clean sheet or attacking returns.

    2. ☈☾
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Pascal Gross

    3. tambourineman
      6 years, 27 days ago

      The last player to do it was Kolarov in GW 22 of 2016-17, 2-2 draw at home to Spurs in which he also got booked but 22 BPS was enough to get 1 bonus point

      1. circusmonkey
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Good knowledge!

  16. Werner Bremen
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Ings or Jimenez?

    1. abhirup780
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Jimenez. I own both btw.

  17. Champions League Varane
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Wood was a poor pick oh well

    1. Leonard hatred
      6 years, 27 days ago

      ings played for burnley last time they scored a goal

  18. ivantys
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Chris Wood playing the Werner position lol.

  19. tommo1989
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Does anyone know when Bissouma will lose his suspended tag considering the third game of his suspension is in the league cup in midweek? Also, when he does will his price be locked for a week?

    1. Vazza
      6 years, 27 days ago

      I think he’ll play against Everton next week. The red flag will be dropped once Brighton play their midweek game. Doubt his price will change during the week

      1. tommo1989
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Ok thanks. I know he’s a regular when available but I didn’t know if he’d lose the tag prior to the midweek game or not

  20. Carlton P
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Wood, Werner, Jimenez

    Werner >
    A) DCL
    B) Richarlison
    C) Ings
    D) Vardy
    E) kane

    1. Sgt Frank Drebin
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Has to be DCL I guess? Best stats, best form, Everton form is great and huge ownership making him dangerous not to have? And he will rise in price soon.

    2. LAMELA_AND_CONSUELA
      6 years, 27 days ago

      DCL

  21. Vazza
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Predicted number of points Sterling will score tomorrow?

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 27 days ago

      8

    2. abhirup780

    4. LewanGOALski
      6 years, 27 days ago

      11 x 2. I hope.

    5. Leonard hatred

    6. FFSbet.com

      Will take the ball home

    7. bOttOmEdpOstrEpliEr.
      6 years, 27 days ago

      16 x 3

  22. n-doggg
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Glad I’ve still got che Adams in the team.
    First time this season I’ve seen him ‘live’ and getting in really good positions and looks dangerous

  23. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Need to take an 8pt hit to get in KDB - is it worth it, or wait another GW, with inevitable price rises and only take a 4pt hit.
    Would bring in Lamptey at same time and (forced transfer to get some funds, probably Robinson from WBA as a cheap bench striker who's going to rise in price.

  24. Piggs Boson
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Even Burnley at Turf Moor is looking defensively suspect.

    Weird season.

    1. ☈☾
      6 years, 27 days ago

      No Mee or Tarky

      1. Piggs Boson
        6 years, 27 days ago

        Oh yeah, good point.

    2. JBG
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Pope angry FPL tower put a 5.5 pricetag on him, so he's purposely playing bad.

    3. ivantys
      6 years, 27 days ago

      They are missing both their first choice CBs, I consider them whipping boys until they are back.

    4. Supertrooper
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Their defense and squad are in shambles, both cb out. Their marquee signing has been Dale Stephens.

  25. ivantys
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Tough captain choice next week. I'll pick the one who scores the highest out of Sterling, Ings and JImmy this week to captain next.

  26. shiraz
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Just remember that ings have a nagging injury problem, will hold my horses and before jumping on the werner > ings bandwagon. Any other option beside ings, already have dcl and jim in my team

  27. FFSbet.com
    6 years, 27 days ago

    After 2 GWs Jimmy + Ings > Martial + Werner ? 🙂

  28. Brosstan
    6 years, 27 days ago

    McSharty is going to keep a cs after everyone sold on wc isn't he?

    1. LewanGOALski
      6 years, 27 days ago

      He better

  29. Kodap
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Werner to Ings definitely my transfer this week, brought in Werner on a WC over Son, so quite frustrated..

    Would you wait until the game is finished to make the swap?

    1. JBG
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Yes, just incase.

    2. Bram
      6 years, 27 days ago

      Definitely wait for game to finish - no reason not to.

  30. stat sifter 888888
    6 years, 27 days ago

    Burnley are one of the few teams that Southy's high line is perfect for because they don't have any pace. Most other teams have some players that will gallop into that space.
