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.

    McCarthy | Button
    TAA | Shaw | Davies | Mitchell | Justin
    Salah | KDB | Son | ASM | Stephens
    Werner | DCL | Adams

    Time to WC?

    1. BrutalLogiC
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      yes

    2. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Absolutely not. Your team is in great shape. Just a simple Werner to Jimenez transfer needed.

    3. yash
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Really? want to get rid of Shaw, Davies, ASM, McCarthy and Adams probably(will wait for the SOU match for McCarthy and Adams)

    4. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Not at all - you have a bench - no hit required

      ASM to Podence on FT?

      Not a fan of McCarthy myself, but not the time to drop unless on wc, next 2 fixtures are decent. Hopefully he'll up his game for save points or Sou may become slightly more defensive

      1. yash
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Dont want to hold Werner after today

        1. Pep bites Kun
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Fair enough - agree. Push ASM down the fodder bench & Werner to DCL/Jesus. DCL gives you cash to move your attacking points around OR imo Jesus v Leeds & beyond

          1. yash
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Already have DCL and Jesus is injured

            1. Pep bites Kun
              • 9 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              so make a decision you aardvark

  2. TheDragon
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Which of Martial and Werner needs to go first (or both)

    I hate them

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      50:50 really

    2. My name is an echo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Same dilemma. Think Martial will drop tonight.

    3. Champions League Varane
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Werner

      1. TheDragon
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        You are in my bad books Tony

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Whoever dropping the price first?

    5. My name is an echo
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Who are you getting? Can’t decide between Jimenez and DCL

      1. TheDragon
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Potentially both

        Jimenez over DCL

    6. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Hate is a very strong word. However it has been used on this platform quite a lot for the wrong reasons at the right time 🙂

      Werner & Martial aren't performing now - choose someone who suits your team and you don't have to take a misappropriate hit for - DCL perhaps

  3. F4L
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Ings brace or hat trick here?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Goal and max bonus

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        This. 9 points incoming

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Anything after that many Werner captain fails is a success, can't be greedy

      • Firminooooo
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I would have to kill myself if this happens.

        1. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          I saw what happened to you at the deadline earlier. Gutting.

    3. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      A. Coady + Jrodriguez (Already own Saiss)

      B. TAA + Podence

      C. Robertson + Foden

    4. gooberman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Maupay or Mitrovic?

      1. Party time
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Maupay. Brighton are a better side

        • The Albatross
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Maupay for me

      2. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        WC time?

        McCarthy
        TAA - Digne - Saiss - C.Taylor - Mitchell
        Salah - Sterling - Zaha - Soucek - Bissouma
        Werner - Martial - Mitro

        1. RamboRN
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Werner to Jimenez + maybe 1 more would be enough.

        2. sunzip14
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          I think you could get away with just a -4 by changing the two forwards.

        3. Drip Doctor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          WBA
          avl BHA FUL
          avl lee che lei
          CRY TOT wol

          I think you can hold off. You have the best (C) pick next GW. Maybe 1 transfer or two.

      3. sunzip14
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Easiest decision to press WC on this team?

        McCarthy, Steer
        AWB, Davies, KWP, Justin, Mitchell
        KDB, Son, Barnes, Foden, Bissouma
        Werner, Martial, Kane

        1. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Probably

          1. sunzip14
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Werner, Martial, AWB, Davies plus Saints defense all suspect here.

        2. J âš’ Gimme ur Mané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Ye

        3. RamboRN
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Werner to Jimenez. They rest should be ok. Don't like def but nobody keeping cs anyway

        4. Drip Doctor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          You've got a good 11 for the next GW. Just a transfer or two needed.

      4. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Wilson to DCL or Werner to Jiménez with FT?

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          DCL/richarlison

        2. djoker_nole
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Get Mitro/Bamford and spend the money elsewhere

      5. Ibralicious
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        (Bottomed) Pick one to do after the inevitable Che Adams blank:

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

        Cheers!

        1. RamboRN
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          B just so you don't lose too much value and can catch the price rises

      6. Niho992
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        2 points so far. Need goal from Che Adams

        1. Keep Calm and Play On

        Man this place gets toxic on game days, I understand the frustration at your team and those types of comments but the constant lol@____
        is brutal haha

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years

          Couldn't agree more.

          The tribalism kicks in and the apes go to war.

              Jk but wouldn't use that word considering

              1. Piggs Boson
                • 14 Years
                5 years, 6 months ago

                You best be joking!

                We're all primates.

                1. stat sifter 888888
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 6 months ago

                  You best be thinking about which words you use to describe PEOPLE, not everyone will take it as kindly. I know of a guy in my year who was suspended last year bc he said something similar to the wrong person.

                  1. Hairy Potter
                    • 10 Years
                    5 years, 6 months ago

                    Ape isn't automatically a racist word and it clearly wasn't used in a racist context here, so don't try to twist the meaning.

              2. Hairy Potter
                • 10 Years
                5 years, 6 months ago

                Eh?

          2. Party time

              Haha

          3. stat sifter 888888
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            This wasn't to me was it?

          4. Scots Gooner
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Didn't used to be like this. Its the past season or two its become more and more childish.

            Better on non match days, the trolls take a break.

        2. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          I swear if Werner doesn’t drop in price this week now....

          1. Champions League Varane
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Went Kane over Werner 😉

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              Good man

          Any love for Townsend?
          Already has 3 out of 3 returns

          1. Ghost Ship
            • 15 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            I looked but not for 6. Periera, Podence, Leeds midfielders better

            1. Champions League Varane
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              Agree

        4. Puncheon Guly
          • 15 Years

          Timo's up for Werner!

          What is Gianni's FPL id?

          He sold Mount and Bruno on WC

          1. Piggs Boson
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Don't think he's in the Mods & Cons https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/581/standings/c

            Never seen him link it either.

        6. TheDragon
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          McCarthy*, 4.0
          TAA, Davies*, KWP*, Justin, Mitchell
          Salah, KDB, Son, Podence, Bissouma
          Werner*, Martial*, Davis

          Do I need to give in and Wildcard this?
          Was going to do Davies -> Saiss as my FT but Werner and Martial and literally ruining my season. Or Davies, Werner, Martial -> Saiss, DCL, Jimenez -8?

        9. Duncs
          • 5 Years

          Will Werner go down in price tonight? Is there a website that shows likely price movements?

          5 years, 6 months ago

          Lads, I do apologise, but I have to settle tonight and I reallu could use your help. Should I WC A to B? Or would a hit suffice (already used my FT)?

          A: Ryan / Walton
          TAA / Doherty / KWP / Dallas / Mitchell
          Salah / KDB / James Rodríguez / Harrison / Soucek
          Werner / Jimenez / Brewster

          B. Martinez / Steer
          TAA / Digne / Saiss / Lamptey / Mitchell
          Salah / KDB / Son / Podence / Harrison
          Jimenez / DCL / Brewster

          Any suggestions? I know it's not the best time to ask, but I'll be away for the week and really needed to settle it. Would you be so kind to help?

          1. Blzbobuk
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Wouldn’t wildcard that especially if you are away, wait a week and you will have international break. Just Werner to dcl

            1. sirmorbach
              • 9 Years

              Thank you so much for this, mate

        11. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Please let me use the opportunity to thank every one of you for providing feedback on whether should I WC. Still not decided but I really appreciate you lads, you were amazing providing all that feedback.

          Cheers

          1. FPL Daniel

            Jesus is injured

            1. Niho992
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              Injured Jesus is better than German Ighalo

          2. fr3d
            • 8 Years

            Good luck with the Jesus points this weekend mate

          3. Ginkapo FPL
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Has Jesus scored whilst I wasnt looking?

          4. Qaiss
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Werner will still hit 20 goals and Jesus probably won't though

            1. Qaiss
              • 10 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              And I had Jesus before he got injured

          5. Piggs Boson
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            I wasn't saying Werner is a better option, I was criticising your reasoning.

            I haven't owned Werner all season.

            1. Piggs Boson
              • 14 Years
              5 years, 6 months ago

              But I am sorry it hurt you so much. That wasn't my intention x

            Well this is a bit petty.

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

          Werner to Jimenez tonight to save 0.2?

          1. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            Will the price changes happen tonight? Werner looks far from a fall

            Thinking the same, but also think that's better wait and lose 0.2

            Werner is nowhere close to dropping I'd imagine

            Yep

            Footballfix says tonight and I have Done this move - easiest transfer of the season...

            Depends on wildcards vs real transfers whether it happens.

            • 16 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            His next 15 games are awesome though

          Werner have Palace and Soton at home in next 2. Is it to risky to sell for Jimenez ?

          1. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years
            5 years, 6 months ago

            We look unsettled... Tammy might start too

            Palace is a medium fixture really - very light green. Southampton very tasty depending on what we see tonight.

            No, but wait until jimi playing (unless you want to avoid price drop).
            I may go with ings bcoz i already have jimi

            I had him at that price as nailed central striker. I think he will do well but on wing twice and looked like he was In midfield by the end - big hauls look unlikely, Chelsea not looking great. Easiest transfer out this season. Will wait until pulisic and site has are there.

            Jimi + ???

            Wolves have form and fixtures on their side.

            Ings, Vardy have some weaker opponents matches coming up in the next few but there is a reason neither was in your team in the first place.

            DLC is FOTM, but is not-so-secretly complete sh*te.

          Its been an age since the last penalty, expecting one in the 1st half here.

          Is it me or has every team forgotten how to defend? Or do you think it’s the lack of a proper preseason that is effecting them all?

        18. 2OLEgend
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          Does anyone know how many gameweeks Dunne will start?

          I'm 0.5m short of doing Mitro - > Jimenez. Looking at Ayling - > Dunne to fund it.
          Rest of defence is TAA, Saiss, Taylor, Mitchell.

          Have to pull it of before price-rise

          Werner to Richarlison or Ings, what a time to be alive.

          Have Jimi already, refuse to get DCL..
