Calvert-Lewin and Bamford the Fantasy focus as Everton host Leeds

Everton’s Gameweek 10 meeting with Leeds is a tale of two forwards as far as Fantasy Premier League managers are concerned.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.9m) and Patrick Bamford (£6.1m) are owned by 60.9% and 35% of teams respectively and, unsurprisingly, bot start for their respective sides at Goodison Park.

While Leeds have gone with an unchanged XI from their 0-0 draw with Arsenal, Carlo Ancelotti has been forced into some alterations for Everton.

He sticks with the 3-4-2-1 shape used in the 3-2 win at Fulham but replaces the injured Lucas Digne (£6.2m) with Tom Davies (£5.3m) at left wing-back.

Alex Iwobi (£5.9m) holds onto his right wing-back role while Mason Holgate (£4.8m) comes into captain the side from centre-back, in for Yerry Mina (£5.5m).

Leeds’ unchanged set-up means FPL defender Stuart Dallas (£4.5m) is likely to play in central midfield once again, with Ezgjan Alioski (£4.4m) around to cover him at left-back.

Fresh from hitting the woodwork against Arsenal, it’s a second consecutive start at right-midfield for Raphinha (£5.4m) at the expense of Hélder Costa (£5.5m).

Everton XI (3-4-2-1): Pickford; Keane, Holgate, Godfrey; T Davies, Allan, Doucouré, Iwobi; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin, Rodríguez.

Leeds United XI (4-1-4-1): Meslier; Alioski, Cooper, Koch, Ayling; K Phillips; Harrison, Dallas, Klich, Raphinha; Bamford.

      First time bamford owner,

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years

        Bamford and DCL hattie

        1. Salan

          It would be nice.

    I have Ayling from the bench instead of Sterling. Fantastic this.

    If id be having any City asset outside of KDB I'd just keep for Fulham and assess next week.

      EO under 100 isn't it?

      Feel free to score. Nicks points from Leeds defenders too.

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Not sure. Leeds defenders minus points is a valid point though.

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          A few in my ML has he captian so not really want him to haul at least.

      No matter what he does it will hardly affect my rank

      I don’t think any player is over 100% EO this week, which is great.

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Aha ty!

    With Pebbles sniffing around and benching Laporte today, is Dias worth it?

    Seems a boring pick and City really like a short corner which kills his attacking threat.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Pebbles 😆

      He looks more like Mr Slate, no?

  6. Weeb Kakashi

    1-1 with Richarlison and Dallas scoring please.

  7. Zebrahimović

    KDB or Salah? How is more crucial? Already got Jota for Liv cover

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KDB today & next week probably. Salah the week after. Then KDB.

      Either get both, or swapsies.

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Imagine kdb benching vs Fulham :/

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Midweek likely gives a clue.

          1. Royal5
            • 12 Years

            Good point.

    Just remembered I own James. Penultimate week for him

  9. fr3d

    I've been out of the loop today. Do Salah and KDB owners feel unlucky?

    1. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Probably

    2. FPL DONKEY
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Salah(C) goal ruled out for being 1mm offside
      De Bruyne assist ruled out for offside
      De Bruyne hit post

      (also have Robbo whose assist was ruled out for offside and then lost CS in injury time)

      Points in the bag for Kev ... could’ve been a load more but that’s the luck of the game.

    Goals pls. Only goals.

      0-0 incoming

        Noooooooooooo

  12. Brosstan

    Bamford looking very hungry today.

    1. Zimo
      • 5 Years

      Should have ate a nice steak beforehand

    2. Botman and Robben

      Restaurant and supermarket covid lockdown in his neighbourhood?

    Bielsa taking a poop. Classic

  14. Flair

    Klopp is honestly such a whiny brat. So disrespectful to reporters.

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He's a clown.

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Its called honesty. Someone has to stand up for the players. Wasn’t “whiney” in the slightest.

      1. Napoleon IV
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        yeah those poor guys, being paid millions to play football and be adored by hordes of fans.

      2. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        He humiliated a journalist after he disagreed with him on the penalty call today. He's a whiny brat of the highest order.

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Didn't the journalist humiliate him?

    3. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He can be a bit more respectful, yes! But what he's trying to say isn't wrong.

      Players are getting injured because of the rigorous schedule and not enough rest between games. The broadcasters must find a way to make money while keeping the players in mind. At the end of the day, it's the players which help them earn the money. If teams start fielding youngsters in the games, the viewership will drop and so will the money which they are earning.

    Imagine being an Everton player seeing Meslier making these saves, turning to look back, and seeing Jordan Pickford.

    1. JBG

      Hahah

    Great game, lots of chances.

  17. Bushwhacker

    How do you miss that? Blimey Leeds could be great with better players.

    1. Vlekz
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Ummmmmm, even Fulham can be better that way

    2. JBG
      • 5 Years

    4. Gobigorgohome

      Richarlison is really poor finisher

    5. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Brewster going to go mental off the bench for Sterling or will he even start?
      You never know it might work out ok with the C from Sterling gone to KDB already.

    6. WVA
      • 7 Years

      That won't win him the ballon d'Or!

    7. Gobigorgohome

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Usually a way with a hit or 2 if you really want him.
        If that one of the post was in he would have more bonus and a mega haul. He looks back on it for sure.

      Score check? 9 (-8) from 1 before Everton game started

      1. JBG
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        27 before Everton game(DCL and Bamford in my team so 29 so far)

        1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years

          Decent, how many played?

      2. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        18 from 3 before EVE.

        One was Guaita. I did a -8 but Jota & KDB were part of it.

            Nice, gamble paying off so far!

      3. George Sillett
        • 8 Years

        Bit of a waste of time at this stage of the gameweek.

        1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Not really, 3 games, Pool and City have played plus many captains

          1. George Sillett
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            So many games left and plenty of players still to go.

            1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              True fact there, can’t argue

        2. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I don’t mean to be rude but I’ve noticed your comments are nearly always negative, not good to bring negativity constantly as your contribution.

          As I say, don’t mean it to be rude, just thought someone should probably highlight that fact to you.

          1. George Sillett
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Thanks for that but tbh I couldn't care less.

            1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              Fair enough, each to their own

          2. George Sillett
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Additionally there is so much utter tripe posted on here . Just read through a few pages and tell me I'm wrong.

            1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              I agree with you, trouble is half of them are just looking for attention or a response, even if negative.
              So I think to ignore would probably help stop it more than ridiculing them.

              1. George Sillett
                • 8 Years
                3 years, 4 months ago

                I do agree but there is one who persists with constant wumming and seems to think that he is highly amusing which he certainly isn't. He either is is just a t00l online or is a pillock in real life. I tend to think the former.

                1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
                  • 7 Years
                  3 years, 4 months ago

                  Try not to let it bother you and just ignore

      4. Esalman
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        35 from 5 including Richarlison

      5. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        After 3 games?
        Sheeeesh.

    11. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Leeds are the best team to watch

      1. Esalman
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Both Leeds and Everton.

    12. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Everton midfield non existent again, Leeds in control and Everton has to resort to counter attacking. Very similar to Southampton, but at least Everton has Richarlison this time instead of Siggy which gives them a bit more presence.

      Should be goals in this one

    13. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I may sound bias as a Leeds fan, but we aren't half exciting to watch

      1. WE GO FOR IT
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        If it were my team, I wouldn't enjoy the game half as much, as well.

      2. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'd say you're three quarters to four fifths exciting to watch.

      3. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Fantastic.

        You force teams to play your way with the man-to-man marking in the centre. Whether the other team wants it or not, it will be an open game.

    14. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      How likely is Alioski likely to keep his place - 4.4m defender playing an attacking role
