Gameweek 4 comes to its conclusion this evening as Sunderland welcome Everton to the Stadium of Light.

Both sides roll up in contrasting form – whilst the Black Cats have yet to win, their visitors are unbeaten so far under new manager Ronald Koeman.

Two goals in the first three means Jermain Defoe is the man most likely to help David Moyes get one over his former club.

At the other end of the pitch, Patrick van Aanholt netted in his previous home appearance and Jordan Pickford’s owners are boosted by another start for the 4.0-price keeper.

For the Toffees, Ross Barkley is by far the most popular FPL pick, sitting in over 18% of squads.

With Koeman’s side set for an excellent run of fixtures, this evening’s match allows us the opportunity to also scout the likes of Leighton Baines, Romelu Lukaku and potentially even Kevin Mirallas, who starts for the fourth straight fixture under the Dutchman.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I believe its a symbolic representation of Terry Butcher's courage.

  3. JÆKS ⭐

    Everyone on here really selling Ozil to fit Aguero in before: bur SWA MID ?

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      ozil has better fixtures too

    2. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, going Cazorla instead

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Then it doens't make a difference ofcourse 😀

        To do Ibra to Aguero?

        1. Henryyy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Ozil->Cazorla
          Lukaku->Aguero

          1. JÆKS ⭐
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            You have 2m spare itb then?

                • 11 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                Def is!

                For me it's either Ozil to Cazorla and Ibra to Aguero, Ozil to Snodgrass and Lukaku to Aguero or just wait a few more weeks to bring Aguero in

                1. Henryyy
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                  isnt there anyone you could ship for capoue? you will need 3 transfers tho, but could be worth it

                  im keen on capoue 4th mid

                  1. JÆKS ⭐
                    • 11 Years
                    9 years, 3 months ago

                    He has been my 5th mid from the start, great to watch all those points on my bench.... 😀

        Cazorla won't get a pen every game...

        1. Keep Calm and Play On
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Didn't get to watch the game but I was told he was still fairly attacking??

          1. Third Eye Vision
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Yeah. He was brilliant. I thought he made Arsenal tick. Sure he'll get plenty of assists as well as pens.

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

    This is going to be one of those games that start fast and peter out into a nothing 0-0 draw

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years

      My fear

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…

      How was the trip to OT Bubz? The game was a cracker.....

      Yeah this has all the makings of a classic snooze fest.....

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Was great! Was a very interesting game to see live, especially the first half, Utd were absolutely all over the shop!

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Looked like an old fashioned derby....best game in years....players looked totally spent by the final whistle......

    8. Moyesinho
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Thats my dream. I have Williams on and Kone coming off the bench.

    9. Goaldigger
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Would love that. Not going to happen though.

    1. Moyesinho
      • 13 Years

      Depends. Do you have players like Antonio, Capoue and Costa that are destined to rise soon?

    Bolasie and Barkley in particular are struggling to get into this game

  16. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    What do you think of this team guys?

    Foster - Jakupovic

    Stones Amat Koscielny Lenihan Valencia

    Ozil Lallana Antonio Hazard Capoue

    Benteke Ibrahimovic Lukaku

    Im trying to make my team as fixture orientated as possible

    I could do williams and firmino instead of lallana and valencia.

    What do u think??

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Good. Who are you dropping out of your front? Capoue certainly looking like a viable 5th or even 4th playing mid.

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Probably lallana. Difficult fixture and its a friday game.

        Cant drop capoue at home tbh, im going to ride his form and its a late game but saying that, im captaining ibra lol

  17. Twiggy SRFC
    • 9 Years

    I wish Aguero was injured so I'd have cash to spend

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Bolasie playing on the wing totally hurts Coleman's attacking threat

    1. Ziro
      • 10 Years

      This

    2. Oven Glover
      • 10 Years

      Same with Mirallas/Baines

    Lukaku doesn't move. Must be easy to defend against. My captain ofc.

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      be patient

      1. MarvelouSuccess
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        yeah be patient. watch as lukaku shoots 5 more shots over the bar from 5 yards out as usual. 😉

        1. champion_elect
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          It always feels like nothing will never happen when watching a game I know...just really striking how he just stands there.

      Looks completely fine to me

      1. A Betting Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Maybe his defensive positioning is just awful then, been watching him closely since the injury and he looks uninterested :/

  22. Blame It On Rio-ddermorten
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I have Koné, Defoe, Baines and Lukaku. Currently on 18 points so far, really need this game to really turn my gw around. But that's hard when every goal would deduct points from the defenders. Hoping for Defoe to have a good game, he's the closest thing to a differential I have.

    1. Blame It On Rio-ddermorten
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Going into this gameweek I felt pretty confident with

      Heaton
      Valencia
      Hazard Sanchez Sterling Puncheon
      Ibrahimovic

      And the aforementioned four. 14 points with the last four to go, that's rough.

  23. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    If Everton had a proper number 10 and not that clumsy Barkley, they could have been a good team.

  24. Jafooli

    1. BadgersBoys

        1. BadgersBoys

  26. Moyesinho
    • 13 Years

    Januzaj currently the best player on the pitch.

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    All a bit predictable from Everton going forward

  28. ekul the lokonga enthusiast

    Lol this lukaku guy is sweating buckets already

    Why did i get him

    Maybe everton can be relied upon in a more defensive return than an attacking one

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Defo.
