Broja benched as Hasenhuttl opts for Adams and Armstrong up front

Gameweek 11 gets underway at St Mary’s Stadium tonight as Southampton play host to Aston Villa.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

Southampton, who have taken seven points from their last three matches, make just the one change as Stuart Armstrong (£5.8m) replaces Nathan Redmond (£5.9m), who missed training this week and is isolating.

That means Che Adams (£6.8m) and Adam Armstrong (£5.9m) lead the line again, with popular budget forward Armando Broja (£5.0m) a substitute after overcoming an ankle injury.

As for Villa, Dean Smith makes three changes from the side that lost 4-1 to West Ham United in Gameweek 10, as captain Tyrone Mings (£4.9m), Axel Tuanzebe (£4.5m) and Anwar El Ghazi (£5.7m) come in for Kortney Hause (£4.4m) and Jacob Ramsey (£4.5m), who both drop to the bench, plus the suspended Ezri Konsa (£4.9m).


GAMEWEEK 11 LINE-UPS

Southampton XI: McCarthy, Livramento, Bednarek, Salisu, Walker-Peters, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Elyounoussi, S Armstrong, Adams, A Armstrong

Subs: Forster, Lyanco, Long, Perraud, Broja, Djenepo, Tella, Diallo, Walcott

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Cash, Tuanzebe, Mings, Targett, Nakamba, McGinn, Bailey, Buendia, El Ghazi, Watkins

Subs: Steer, Young, Hause, Philogene-Bidace, Chukwuemeka, Archer, Davis, A Ramsey, J Ramsey

    Another absolute monster haul from livramento

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Matched Reece James 21 pointer.

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

      A whopping 6 points

  2. SEXY SOLO SAUCE

    Gosh you lot are never happy are ya, I’m elated with the clean sheet!

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Glas half empty attitude on here all the time.

  3. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Bizarre interpretation of Livramento losing possession at the end. He had 2 interceptions from what I could see.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Only 1 BPS per 3 CBI makes it easier to lose BPS though being tackled than earning it.

      The Mings dispossession was harsh.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Did he get -ive bps for the failed cross?

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Nope.

          Another harsh dispossession for the Romeu hospital pass late on too.

    2. Postman Ty
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He lost possession a handful of times to be fair. The one was a shite pass from Romelu.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I thought Bednarak and Armstrong clearly deserved the baps, just disappointed given the last 10 mins. I’ll take the CS and run!

        1. Postman Ty
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Yep can't be mad with 6 points from 4m.

  4. It’s gonna Ben Mee

    Everyone started Mr Livra I guess? Easy points

    1. Spg76
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes we did

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Had Tierney in front of him until late afternoon or so...

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Did indeed

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I did, benched White.

    4. dshv
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Chose Cancelo

    5. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Certainly not everyone, I for one had to bench him with a D of TAA Cancelo James & Chilly

  5. RogDog_jimmy
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    well the last three week autosubs

    Jota > Livra
    Azpi > Livra
    Azpi > Livra

    This week I'm expecting Azpi > Livra one more time...

  6. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    If you benched him yet again, you've only got yourself to blame.

    1. Shultan
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      With cancelo TAA & Antonio in my team had a massive benching headache

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      It’s my first time 😆

  7. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Watch Livra outscore Cancelo, Trent, Chilwell and Co.

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      he could conceivably outscore them collectively

    2. Shultan
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      1 point for TAA & cancelo
      West ham to score but no Antonio involvement

  8. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livra (C) vs Norwich, who is with me?

    1. Chandler Bing
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      NGL, if it was at the St. Mary's I'd actually be interested.

  9. Wolfman180
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    At least I know I have points coming on if one of my players doesn't play 🙂

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes I am sure you wish you started him. 😛

      1. Wolfman180
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Obviously but depends how Cancelo, Trent and Rudiger do. Trying to stay positive :,) although I do have a strong feeling either Cancelo or at least someone from my team will be rotated

  10. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    McCarthy repaying the faith as my planned Sanchez replacement from GW9

    One more GW, then Guaita for a while

    1. OLEgend
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Getting him on GW 8 Wc was my best move

  11. Firminooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Thank you Livramento. Just couldn’t stand all the benchpoints so I started him this GW.

  12. WVA
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Can anyone explain why Livra dropped from 30 to 24 baps for no reason?

    1. Postman Ty
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Why would you say no reason when there's clearly a reason...

    2. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not sure. Bizarre though

    3. Dammit_182
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      The FPL top brass monitored the scout chat and wanted to stir things up.

    4. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      "No reason"?! 😮 😆

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

      Let me guess..because you own him?

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

      For exactly the same reason he was on 30 baps in the first place, despite having a pretty poor game... the bps is a joke

  13. BeWater
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I'm up to 27 benched Livramento points since bringing him in GW4.

    1. dshv
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Same

  14. Dammit_182
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    6 points from livra. Frankly he he very consistent and feeling very daft for getting omibamidele on wild card as he was cheaper. But. Those who played him - happy with 6 or worried you benched the wrong player?

    1. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      6 points is never a wrong bench. If someone gets more (Cancelo I benched) then fair enough but the damage isn’t likely too much

      1. Dammit_182
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yea, 6 from your defender is fine. Lots of attackers benched for him this week. Still. If you got him cheap what a buy.

    2. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Happy with 6 albeit was so close to an 8

    3. Will Kane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Well 1st sub Broja got 1 point. Dias could match it but doubt he'll smash it

  15. BrockLanders
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I love my Livramento points. Guaranteed 6 virtually every week..

  16. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livra no. 6 on defender points list even if GW not complete, is not bad.

  17. House Frey Wedding Planner
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Started Livra 🙂

    Benched Armstrong 🙁

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Got rid of Armstrong yesterday.

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

    Livra last 8 gameweeks:
    6, 5, 2, 4, 6, 9, 6, 6

    You're a true casual if you're benching Livra cos he's a "bench" player

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Played james and chillwell instead and got their mega hauls

      So casual

      1. LSP
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        You probably bench Livra last week too and played Gray/Sarr instead - like a true casual. I'd be annoyed too if I bench Livra hahaha

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I benched him coz I had a better first 11 in my thinking. No regret for sure as the worst I could get is a -4 difference.

  19. tangtastic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    6pts, after baps.

    how am I doing?

  20. Spg76
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I’m not disappointed Livra missed out on BAPS. Villa battered Southampton in 2nd half

  21. mcginnntonic
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Played livra for his last 4 games, class

    1. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Absolutely gutted to go With Dias over Livra 4 gws ago.

      Thought city double up would bring me cs's. Oh well...

  22. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I’m in total shock.

    We actually held out.

    Last min bench change to bring Armstrong (9) and Livermento (6) in on top of McCarthy (9).

    24 points and up to ~25k

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      This, well played

      1. TomSaints
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Super frustrated Livramento messed up one simple pass at the end. Cost him 2 bps

    2. Will Kane
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Well played!

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Great night all round

  23. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Well done if you played Livra but as a non owner quite happy to avoid a 12-15 pointer

  24. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Only Salah has more points than Livramento since GW4.

    Why do i keep benching him ffs. Counting on Pep and Tuchel for some fraudulence.

    1. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      That can’t be right. mental stat.

      1. Costa Nostra
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        checks out...believe it!

  25. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Livramento has shades of Duffy TC for a dgw if good fixtures 😆

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      o/ I did it

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        😆

  26. The Frenchie
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I took McCarthy for -4, happy with 8 points

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      nice result

      1. The Frenchie
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      How about 9? 🙂

      1. The Frenchie
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Haha even better

  27. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I’d like to thank Laporte for Livramento‘s points this week

  28. HD7

    1FT

    Gray to Gallagher Cornet or someone else in this price range, mates?

  29. Roy Hudd

    Diane Abbott in charge of the baps tonight

  30. Baps hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    We should perhaps start to consider Saints defense as a premium one?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Romeu and Ward-Prowse are warriors. Front two help defend too.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      ?!?

    3. Kanga roo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      They've kept 5 cleanies. Why are you surprised all of a sudden?

    4. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If this was any other gw, most would have started him but many people's benches will be full of good scores i reckon.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        He is almost set and forget player in my team.

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Correct. But the temptation of dgw is still strong

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          He wasn’t suggesting bench boost. He’s saying there are so many great defensive options it’s hard choosing who to bench.

        2. ZeBestee
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Yes, dgw's are overrated though.

    5. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Having Livra as 1st sub has been considered as easy decision. Now we are wondering if we should start him. Vs Norwich probably.

      1. Paqueta Rice
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Definitely have to start him then.
