Gameweek 15 eases its way into our weekends via a rather tepid fixture from a Fantasy Football perspective, with assets from both Watford and Everton slipping from the radar of late.

Romelu Lukaku has regressed to fire just a single goal in his last six Gameweeks, restoring his “unreliable” tag and ensuring that he has been evacuated from thousands of Fantasy Premier League squads over the last month.

Equally, we’ve fallen out with Watford’s early risers – the likes of Etienne Capoue, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas showed such promise but have faded badly in recent Gameweeks.

With expectations kept low, we are likely to consider this first fixture as a Scouting mission, an encounter to be used to weigh up and assess whether the aforementioned players can return to favour.

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

        I also swapped Holebas for Alonso. Was one of two choices, and it looks the wrong one atm.

      Bellerin on bench is a good sign for the upcoming fixtures. Can't be having Gabriel there. Has a big knock-on effect on Walcott's displays too.

    to be honest I really hope sanchez is playing for 2 minutes. I have him, but not as captain. Seeing that almost everyone in top 100k will have him and many captained him, it would be great news for the green arrow incoming.

    everyone saying Holebas wiped out their hits, did you take hits to bring him in this week? Surely would have gotten the points without the hits..

      Hits for the vast numbers of people transferring Aguero+1 to Sanchez and probably Kane
