After the drama of the 3pm kick-offs, Everton v Leicester City rounds off the day’s Premier League action.

The match at Goodison Park gets underway at 5.30pm GMT.

Frank Lampard makes one change to the Everton team that drew at Fulham: Dwight McNeil starts in place of the underperforming Anthony Gordon, who drops to the bench.

Budget defender Nathan Patterson is among the substitutes again, having got minutes off the bench in his comeback game last weekend.

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers make two changes to the side that lost 1-0 to Manchester City in their last game.

Jamie Vardy is replaced by Patson Daka in attack, while Boubakary Soumare comes in for Caglar Soyuncu as Rodgers reverts to a back four.

    Leic cs's really getting annoying now... 😀

      Really not 😀

  3. DycheDycheBaby

    Choosing Raya over Ward every week has been a shambles 🙂

  4. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Castagne probably the only good pick I’ve came up with this season so far lol

  5. Scapegoat Salah

    WAAAARRDDDDD

        Unlucky!

    WC 13 continues to hurt.

    Lost KDB & Maddy for Foden & Salah & got rid of Salah sharpish

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Thinking of correcting the error, Foden & Andreas/Bowen > KDB & Maddy?

  7. Rainer

    3 years, 5 months ago

    What a performance from Maddison, toyed with Everton's very solid midfield.

  8. Firmino
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Mistake to play Guaita over Ward.

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Same. Can already feel a 1 pointer coming our way.

  9. OptimusBlack

    I want those 7 for next GW with -4 pts

    Danny Ward, MVP... Him and KdB have started my week nicely. All to play tomorrow. Just need a rub of the green arrow.

  11. Old Man

    Foxes! What a quality side (ish).

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Agree. Those players are too good to be in the relegation zone, or even in the bottom half of the table.

  12. Gandalf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 5 months ago

    The Guehi over Castagne decision continues to haunt me..

  13. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Going to be interesting to see the new template once the unlimited transfers kick in ?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Long live the template

    2. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ward, Kepa
      Cancelo, Trippier, White
      KDB, Maddison, Saka, Almiron, Andreas
      Haaland, Mitrovic, Jesus / Wilson

  14. banskt

    Only 6 points separating the bottom 10 teams. Any one of them could go down.

    As a football fan, it will give me immense joy to see Liverpool fighting relegation for once. And Brighton fighting top 4. Too bad that they are not going to happen.

    1. Firmino
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      You are not a football fan if you wish to see Liverpool in relegation battle. They play the most entertaining stuff when at their best.

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        So, to prove one is a football fan, they have to wish to see Liverpool win the league?

          This

      2. JELLYFISH
        • 14 Years

        Don’t be daft

      3. banskt
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yes, they play entertaining football.

        I don't argue here about what I wish and what I don't wish. I also wish to see the earth from space. But, let's talk FPL.

        1. banskt
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          *don't want to argue ...

  15. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    How's this title for an FPL book I'm thinking about writing?

    "A rub of Satan's d*ck over my team"

  16. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts on Darwin for next week?

    1. mox81
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Think I will. Would have him now if FPL didn't crash today! Still, Justin off bench for Mitro not too shabby.

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Juicy

  17. JELLYFISH
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Pickford over Ward worked well then

    1. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      So annoying, that was my only real 50/50 on WC and it’s cost me a bunch of points

    2. banskt
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      The home team was the correct call.

  18. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    My latest GWs with Andreas Pereira:

    GW11 - 5 pts - benched
    GW12 - 3 pts - played
    GW13 - 10 pts - benched
    GW14 - 3 pts - played
    GW15 - 6 pts - benched

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Played in all five for me. Jammy!

    2. 11 smelly shirts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Don't forget the main reason you have him: he's enabler for the more expensive players who's coming with the advantage of playing every week.. Of course it's annoying to have points on the bench, but would you be happier to have another 4.5 midfielder who never plays?

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah, he’s an enabler for Fodens 3 consecutive 1 pointers

        1. 11 smelly shirts
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          That makes him one of the most consistent players 🙂

  19. JoeJitzu +42

    Really hurts server going down, multiple attempts to do Foden and Haaland to KDB and Alvarez (C) with my 2FT and most annoying thing a lot on my mini league got theirs done in last 5mins!

    Any techies out there know why or how some can and others can’t??

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It’s 2022 & the FPL are circa 1980

        Servers

    2. Sun Jihai

      Need to use the app

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        App was as bad

        1. Not again Shirley
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Agreed. My app didn’t work from 1:15.

          1. Gizzachance
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Same mate

    3. banskt

      Best guess is their database is not optimized to handle parallel transactions.

      WIth modern computing facilities and SQL backends, handling 10m users is not difficult. Even me without any professional experience in database design could possibly fix it for them. Wonder why they don't hire better developers.

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        My guess: FPL is run by the marketing dept and marketing people in general are, in my experience, severely limited in their understanding of product, scalability, efficiency and tech in general. Instead of giving these issues they updated the app and the web with gradients…

        1. George Sillett
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Simpler than that. FPL is run by profit maximising execs. Everything else is secondary.

    4. Podge
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Some got the ap to work when the website wasnt

  20. Yes Ndidi
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Might be a bit knee-jerky band-wagony, but
    Foden/Saka/Wilson -> KdB/Summerville/Darwin worth a -4?

    Not only is Foden not starting every week now, but his 1pt cameos are negating the point of having a decent bench. Shame to ditch an ARS, but I'd still have Martinelli I guess.
    Would mean playing one of Summerville Andreas Guehi or Cresswell each week, but also gives me a reasonably decent 3mium with Hauland & Kane

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Foden is gone I don’t care if he hauls next week three 1 pointers are horrendous.

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Same, don’t care if its not 4 benchings in a row, may haul
        Etc

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Foden has to start next game, Pep ain’t seeing they are just shietyy now?

    3. mox81
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      That hit has to pay off in GW16 because you'll have unlimited transfers for GW17, so I'd say no as it could massively backfire.

      1. KunDogan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        This

      2. Yes Ndidi
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        That was in the back of my mind too. Thanks.

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

      Foden will start next GW IMO

  21. FCSB

    Relying on Salah to rescue my GW

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years

      This game week is rubbish

    2. Traction Engine Foot
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Me too now, seeing as FPL wouldn't let me sell him for KDB.

    3. Nuka Girl
      • 9 Years

      I need Arsenal and Newcastle to do something heroic.

    Will Canelo miss next Prem game?

    1. dunas_dog

      No misses Chelsea game mid week

        Cheers man

  24. Plumbers Pan

    Foden fraud

  25. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    FPL apologised yet?
    two weeks in a row isn't good enough, costing FPL managers big money mini-leagues.

  26. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Pep really screwed Foden Owners this past 3 gws. As a non owner, it’s just amusing what Pep did.

    1. Nuka Girl
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I've owned for 3 weeks. Got to laugh.

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

        I couldn’t afford him so picked Bernardo instead. It’s just luck, wondering if Pep would bench him again 😆

        1. Nuka Girl
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Can't wait for the upcoming free transfers!

          1. PartyTime
            • 4 Years

            Hahaha…

      I even ended up with Solanke on my bench. Foden autosub for Mitro……nightmare. Raising money to buy FPL new server.

  28. Bobby Digital

    I'm taking a punt on Watkins/Ings next week if Mitro is out
