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.

    Dear Che save my GW! I’m on my knees!!!

    I love how everyone bashing Werner cappers and saying how he was a casual pick blah blah never seem to link their team...hmmm

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      6 years, 28 days ago

      He wasn't a casual pick but he was being massively overrated on here

    2. Alexis Nonsense
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Never thought he was a casual pick, rather the opposite

      Casuals usually go for a safer pick which has done well already I think

    3. DazF90
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I kept him on a WC and captained. Oh well, not my first bad captain pick and I’m sure it won’t be my last!

  3. Cak Juris
    6 years, 28 days ago

    How long is Marcal's injury?

  4. DA Minnion (Former great)
    6 years, 28 days ago

    How is Bruno now as a pick? Still not advisable.

    1. antis0cial
      6 years, 28 days ago

      With the amount of pens being given so far this season he’s still a good pick. Man Utd haven’t looked great though.

    2. Livinginapool
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Poor fixtures and they're looking sluggish, but I'd be very happy to have him in my team.

    3. Alexis Nonsense
      6 years, 28 days ago

      If he relies on pens, it's 10ish goals for a 10.5m mid...that's not good at all

      So I would say he's a keeper, but wouldn't get him in until they start playing better

  5. sully29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Werner: 4 attempts, 3 in the box, 1 big chance.

    Not *that* bad statistically.

    A lot depends on Ziyech and Pulisic coming back.

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Hopefully 9m by then!

    2. Flair
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Needs to put the ball in the net, sigh.

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      His positions were not promising ... if only he's playing no 9

    4. BigBillyBass
      6 years, 28 days ago

      You should triple captain him next week

    5. MrZ
      6 years, 28 days ago

      A Lot depending on how frank utilize him.
      Playing wing formation & 1 striker with only 1 recognizable winger (benched) & lots of strikers is just...

    6. yakirh
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Ziyech is the one to have, just need to wait a couple of gameweeks.

  6. Party time
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Best captain next gw?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Ings (WBA)

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Or Zaha (che)

        1. Party time
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Lol

          I might go with Maupay instead

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      City mid.

    3. fr3d
      6 years, 28 days ago

      KDB perma captain for five weeks

    4. antis0cial
      6 years, 28 days ago

      KDB

    5. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Werner?

    6. Babelcopter

      Son

    7. Livinginapool
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Sterling

    8. Christina.
      6 years, 28 days ago

      same as this wk
      Raz

    9. Party time

      Thanks all

    10. Piggs Boson
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Sterling. 100%

    11. Pukki Party
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Jimenez

    12. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Jimenez

    13. yakirh
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Jimenez or KDB for me

      I think Sterling would be best option

  7. adstomko
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Why do I get the feeling Everton can do a 'Leicester?'

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Don Carlo

      1. adstomko
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Italian managers typically win the Premier League

    2. Tinkermania
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Knee jerk!

    3. sunzip14
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Similar Jersey?

    4. Bartowski
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Need a good defender to play alongside Keane and a goalkeeper to challenge Pickford at the very least.

  8. ☈☾
    6 years, 28 days ago

    CHO, Mount and Tammy proving that they're still better than the newboys!

    Should boycott this club tbh as they will be sitting out most of the time

    1. Qaiss
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Abraham is not better than Werner, been proven on many occasions last season. He’s just not good.

    2. Piggs Boson
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I thought Tammy was pretty poor.

      CHO and Mount I agree though, good players.

    3. La Roja
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Can’t believe Gru is overlooked tbh

  9. Easy Cheesy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 28 days ago

    James, jrod, (w)erner, AWB not even covering my -8 yet

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Ouch

  10. SomeoneKnows
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Seeing lots of love for Ings as a replacement for Werner... Why not Jimenez with those fixtures ahead?

    1. Rainer
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Ings plays two of the worst defences in a row next.

      1. Paulie Walnuts
        6 years, 28 days ago

        That theory worked out well for Werner against West Brom

        1. Cok3y5murf
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Ings is twice the FPL asset Werner is

    2. Hairy Potter
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Already got him?

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I plan on both.

    4. antis0cial
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Many already have Jime.

  11. Rainer
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Lampard throwing Alonso under the bus for 1st & 3rd goal.

    Finito!

  12. grooveymatt65
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Is Vardy a better replacement for Werner than Jiminez?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Next 3 toe to toe I think, I have gone Castagne for LEI so Werner>Jimmy

    2. FPL Theorist
      6 years, 28 days ago

      No

  13. Moderately content penguin
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Puli down to 8.3 I see - he's going to be choice at that price. The outrage when he was originally 8.0

    1. ☈☾
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Jokes on FPL!! he will be 8 when he starts

  14. sunzip14
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Just removed McCarthy and KWP from my team on WC. Will they now get the CS?

    1. yakirh
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Yes

  15. Pep Roulette
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Best defender to get in GW4? Budget no issue! No Liverpool though, have TAA & Robbo already! Semedo?

    1. BigBillyBass
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Digne

      1. Pep Roulette
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Naah! Everton not likely to keep many CS! Also James has taken over most of his set piece duties!

        1. BigBillyBass
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Okay mate. Go with David Luiz then

          1. Pep Roulette
            6 years, 28 days ago

            Hahaha you're funny!

    2. ivantys
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Semedo

      1. Pep Roulette
        6 years, 28 days ago

        That's what I'm thinking!

        1. ivantys
          6 years, 28 days ago

          I would love to go Marcal+Semedo if the former wasn't injured

    3. Moderately content penguin
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Digne is possible but Saiss or Lamptey is perhaps where the value is.

      1. Pep Roulette
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Lamptey looks so good when he plays! He's going to be amazing value! No doubt!

    4. Tcheco
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Castagne for points at both ends of the pitch

      1. Pep Roulette
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Good punt! Ndidi out is a big turn off though.

    Paul Pogba failed to create a chance, produce a shot, make a tackle or interception during his time on the pitch against Brighton and had the lowest pass accuracy of any Man Utd player (71%).

    1. Rainer
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Best midfielder in the world.

    2. Flair
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I wonder when VdB will step in.

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      He was very poor. Could/should be under threat from VDB.

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Give that new chap a chance imo. Pogba still not fit

    4. Champions League Varane
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Still the best mid in the league

  17. BigBillyBass
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Which poor sap got stung with Werner?

    1. FPL Daniel
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Mark Sutherns

    2. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Frank Lampard

    3. Keep Calm and Play On
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Me...sigh

    4. The Albatross
      6 years, 28 days ago

      ol

    5. puhd
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I was telling everyone last GW I was selling but then chickened our. Should’ve just gone with my gut.

  18. luk46
    6 years, 28 days ago

    dunno if thats kneejerk, but Fernandes Erner > Sterling Jimenez should come good, right?

    1. Benjustjamin
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Everything points to yes

  19. Will J 256
    6 years, 28 days ago

    How did zaha look today against Everton?

    1. SAY MY NAME
      6 years, 28 days ago

      poor imo, no attacking threat

      1. BrutalLogiC
        6 years, 28 days ago

        a trap well avoided

  20. Kaneyonero
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Werner out

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Wenger?

    2. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I think he'll do fine once Puli/Ziyech are in and he can play CF rather than on the wing

      1. Keep Calm and Play On
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Agreed but for now he’s gone and by that time Pulisic May be the pick anyway

  21. Legohair
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Werner & Mitro to Jimenez & DCL for a hit stupid move?

    1. Easy Cheesy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      No. Good move

  22. Lucky Z
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Martinez
    Semedo | Digne | C.Taylor
    B.Fernandes | KDB | Salah | Klich
    Richarlison | Mitrovic | Jimenez

    Steer | Lamptey | Mitchell | 4.5

    How this WC looks?

    1. antis0cial
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Looks like a team of penalty takers so Should do well!

  23. FPL Daniel
    6 years, 28 days ago

    Would you WC this team?

    0.5 itb 1FT

    McCarthy
    Justin TAA Saiss
    Havertz Son Bruno KDB Podence
    Werner Mitro

    Bench is: Mitchel Brewster Dier

    Thanks

    1. Qaiss
      6 years, 28 days ago

      How many times will you ask this

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Asking for the first time when sharing my team. Please advise

        1. Qaiss
          6 years, 28 days ago

          No. You’re selling your own teams players before home to Palace and Southampton. Bruno isn’t a bad pick.

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            Thanks Qaiss, greatly appreciated

    2. Pep Roulette
      6 years, 28 days ago

      What? Why?

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Want to sell Chelsea duo and Bruno. A lot of cash to be spread around..

        1. Pep Roulette
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Just sell Werner! Werner to Jimmy/DCL

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            Werner looks like has to go unfortunately

        2. Keep Calm and Play On
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Why do you want to sell Bruno and Havertz, Havertz looked ok and Bruno will get pens

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            Because United looked poor the fixtures are getting worse I want Sterling and Foden and Barnes and DCL and Richarlison

        3. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Keep Havertz and why Bruno?

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            I want Sterling instead

            1. Magic Zico
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 28 days ago

              Ok your call, I wouldn't if I were you

              1. FPL Daniel
                6 years, 28 days ago

                Thanks Zivo

                1. FPL Daniel
                  6 years, 28 days ago

                  Zico

        4. Tinkermania
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Depends on who you bring in. You can take a -8 as well.

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            -8 is kind of too much when I have the WC in hand. -4 is max I would do if I have the WC intact

    3. Paulie Walnuts
      6 years, 28 days ago

      No, just a couple of transfers

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Thanks Pauli for the reassuring

        1. Paulie Walnuts

    4. Lucky Z
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Nah. Werner to Jimmy

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Cheers Lucky

    5. Christina.
      6 years, 28 days ago

      I would yes

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        I am tempted

      2. Piggs Boson
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Tina, what's your WC team?

        Stick with the cheap defence?

    6. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 28 days ago

      No, just Werner out

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Werner is gone surely for Jimmy, but I also want Richarlison and DCL and Barnes and City attack

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Well, the team look fine but if you want overhaul ...

          1. FPL Daniel
            6 years, 28 days ago

            I want overhaul. But so many lads are saying to save it. Hmmm...

            1. Qaiss
              6 years, 28 days ago

              You could literally do Havertz > Foden and Mitro > Jimi for a -4 and then it looks fine. I don't see why you wanna WC but eh.

              1. FPL Daniel
                6 years, 28 days ago

                Thanks Qaiss

    7. BigBillyBass
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Yes do it now now now

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Please be serious

    8. BrutalLogiC
      6 years, 28 days ago

      yes

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Thanks Brutallogic

    9. Hairy Potter
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Do you have 4+ players you feel you need to get rid of? Depending on the rest of the GW, you might just want to ship Werner and/or Havertz.

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Werner Bruno Havertz McCarthy for sure. Mitro too

        1. FPL Daniel
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Dier will be chopped too

          1. Hairy Potter
            6 years, 28 days ago

            May as well go for it try and catch price rises/falls from tonight then.

            1. FPL Daniel

              Thanks Potter

      No - a hit and you’re sorted

      1. FPL Daniel

        Cheers mate

    11. Moderately content penguin
      6 years, 28 days ago

      Midfield and defence looks fine to me. Werner to Jim perhaps.

      Not sure Everton were all that today really. Tough fixture but they created little enough. I'd wait to the other side of the Liverpool match before going overboard.

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Sound reasoning. I might follow.

        1. FPL Daniel
          6 years, 28 days ago

          Thank you so much lads I really appreciate you

      Selling for Jimenez tonight

      I think Ziyech will offer the most value down the line

    Gutted I took out Ings for Werner on a WC.. I was scared of the WBA fixture

      Dumb and dumber

      1. FPL Daniel
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Ings plays WBA next

    2. BrutalLogiC
      6 years, 28 days ago

      made sense, WBA been awful at defending so far

      1. Benjustjamin
        6 years, 28 days ago

        Doesn't make sense when you want Ings straight back in for WBA next week

    3. Benjustjamin
      6 years, 28 days ago

    6 from 1. See you on Sonday!

    Pick one to do after the inevitable Che Adams blank:

    Werner + Adams -> Jiminez + DCL (-4)
    Martial -> Jiminez/DCL (FT)
    Werner -> Jiminez/DCL (FT)

    Cheers!

      Like Trossard but the penalty swings it
