We head to Selhurst Park for Saturday’s final fixture as Palace and West Ham’s dodgy defences go head-to-head.

Christian Benteke warmed up for this one with a midweek hat-trick against Gibraltar and will fancy his chances against a rearguard that conceded more goals than any other over the first seven.

Subject of a recent members article, the in-form Dimitri Payet has racked up a goal and four assists in four starts for the visitors and chipped in with a goal and assist for France over the break.

Michail Antonio has netted in each of his last two away outings – at Man City and West Brom – suggesting he could punish his recent batch of sellers against a Palace backline that’s yet to keep a clean sheet.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    get Joe Allen in to enable other transfers with price rises, or worth waiting for news on his dodgy hammy?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Wait.

  2. pundit of punts
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Pickford - Jakupovic
    Koscielny - Vertonghen - Matip - Holebas - Amat
    Sanchez - Payet - Firmino - Walcott - Carrick
    Aguero - Defoe - Deeney

    1 FT and 0.1m in the bank.

    Easy save right?

    1. ANON.
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, nice team

      1. pundit of punts
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers.

  3. Mr. Meeseeks
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    When are -4 hits subtracted? Is it just as soon as a new GW starts?

    1. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yep

  4. Too Mane Men
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Can I shift Jaku or does anyone think Marshall's place is actually under pressure?

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

    How many ever present players do you guys have in your team? I've got as many as 10. Still have the same GKs+defenders as I started off with

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      8

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Amat is my only survivor 😉

      Then again, I WC'ed a couple of GWs ago.

  6. Mesh
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    What position did Antonio play today?

        Thanks

  7. Paul
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Worth doing Sterling > KDB???

    very tempted

    1. pundit of punts
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Do it if you have the cash.

      1. Paul
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I have....don't think I can get in Kun..

        so KDB or Sterling who better over the long run??

        1. pundit of punts
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          KDB

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Would love to be able to afford KDB

      1. pundit of punts
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He'll be in my team in gw 10.

  8. Harper_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    So I guess Stanislas counts as being the Tadic/Aguero of this year's GW8?

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yep wonder who it'll be next year

      1. Harper_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Gareth Barry. Bookmarked.

    2. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      nah, Redmond will outscore him

      1. Harper_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah GW8 is the Southampton Gameweek

  9. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    LMS safety must be low

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Probably low 20s I'd assume

  10. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    2FT

    Worth Sterling/Antonio to Wally?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio for sure.

      1. Coaly
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Sunderland at home next though and Walcott only has two more good fixtures

    2. ANON.
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio yes imo

    3. Dark_Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just did exactly this with Firmino coming in too

  11. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How did Tekkers look today

    Was he awesome?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Missed a couple of chances as well as the pen

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Wow another missed penalty

    2. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Awesome at being bad

    3. Dark_Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      A little pants

    4. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      He was horrendous

    5. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      just saw his pen, which wasn't awesome unfortunately

    6. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yeh, apart from the penalty

    7. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Hit the post.

      Missed a sitter from a corner at one point.

      I'm surprised he didn't score.

  12. liiusions
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    This awful GW is so obviously going to be topped off by a Capoue brace on all of our benches

    1. Coldplay
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Make it Deeney and I'm game.

  13. Dark_Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone else considering Sterling a luxury player? Team looks much better without him. Just done Antonio and Sterling > Walcott and Firmino with 2 FTs. A little after the Walcott horse has bolted but still, better late than never

    1. liiusions
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm looking at doing the same with my 2FTs, not so sure I want to ditch Sterling though and if it's just Antonio I'm getting rid of I don't know who to get out of Walcott and Firmino...

      1. Dark_Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah again, my same dilemma and decided firm and wally are oop where Sterling isn't so that was that

  14. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    OR updated

  15. ANON.
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Ibra + Snod to Defoe + Firmino?

    Leaves me with a front 8 of

    Mane, Firmino, Sterling, Walcott, Capoue
    Aguero, Lukaku, Defoe

    1. Dark_Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Snod fix way too good

      1. ANON.
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        What does this mean?

        1. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Haha

          Snoddy's fixtures ahead are way too good.

          1. ANON.
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Oh right yeah, so are Firmino though

  16. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How many seconds was Toby away from a CS? 19 % ownership so CS would probably have made a small difference.

  17. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Up to 27k ----> 11k with Firmino, Mane and Valencia to come. Loving it.

    1. ANON.

  24. Assisting the assister

    1. Dark_Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  25. Z
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Snodgrass > Coquelin for bench fodder +1.2m ?

    1. Mesh
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      No because it takes an Arsenal spot in your team

  26. Dark_Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    If you captained Aguero did you get -2?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      -1x2 = -2

      Yes 😛

      1. Dark_Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        That's what I thought. Sting.

  27. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Money no Problem Which stoke mid would you prefer

    A) Arnautovic

    B) Joe Allen

    1. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm sorely tempted to get them both and chase the next Hull fixture.

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      A

    3. Dark_Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      26k ➡ 61k 🙁

      Deeney Firmino and Holebas to go.

      I was in for a bad week after my 221k ➡ 26k jump last gw. 🙁

    • Slam
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      561k -> 554k 😎
      With Valencia and Deeney left, have I got much of a chance of keeping that green arrow intact?
