The Gameweek concludes at the London Stadium where West Ham are treated to their first home game of the campaign against Huddersfield Town.

At the start of the season, this appeared to be a fixture which would have seen us back the Hammers’ assets for returns. Three games in and the outlook is very different.

The Terriers turn up undefeated and with no goals conceded. That form has seen the likes of goalkeeper Jonas Lossl and defender Zanka pick up 8.4% and 10.4% ownership respectively. Meanwhile, playmaker Aaron Mooy is backed by 12.9% having produced a goal and an assist to this point.

But West Ham have the best-supported player on show tonight.

Chicharito is part of 1.4 million squads and is backed by 159,000+ (3.3%) with the captaincy.

Significantly, he’ll be supported by Andy Carroll in the West Ham attack, in what appears to be a 3-5-2 set-up deployed by the under pressure Slaven Bilic.

Joe Hart is the next best owned West Ham asset in action, although 71% of his 500,000 owners have chosen to bench him ahead of tonight’s clash.

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

    Bilic is clueless and playing Chicharito out wide is killing his potential as a goal poacher. Bye bye Little pea

    How was Obiang goal ?

    At £4.5 with all those bps he gets he could be a good shot for the 5th mid spot.

      Yeap. I was looking at Chicarito to Joselu, then Yoshida to Kola GW6.

        Mitrovic suspended. So he should be nailed, right? I have Atsu though and if I do that ^, I have to start him. Doubling Newcastle is really not something I want to do haha.

          It means you're going from one shite cheap striker to another one potentially

            Was thinking Abraham but now I'm thinking just bite the bullet and get Firmino

              I was thinking of Abraham last week but was so quiet home to Newcastle and that's a concern.. Got to be Bobby

              Wasting your time on the merry go round with strikers like gabbi, Abraham, Joseph etc. Get Hernandez or Firminio.

    @Virg, why does Pogba cover Lukaku but Mkhi doesn't?

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      It's completely irrelevant either way 🙂

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        This isn't about coverage. This is about Pogba having a breakout season.

        1. andy85wsm
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          You made it about coverage

          I talk about getting rid of Lukaku for Jesus and you talk about midfielders which aren't part of the equation

          1. FPL Virgin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            All I'm saying is that Pogba completely minimises the risk of going without Lukaku.

            Mkhi doesn't.

            If you make the moves you're mulling over, Pogba should be your GW6 FT.

            1. andy85wsm
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 15 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              He doesn't minimize any risk.

              1. FPL Virgin
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Why? Do Pogba's points not count? Are they impotent points?

                1. andy85wsm
                  • Has Moderation Rights
                  • 15 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  Of course they count. Just like every other midfielder I could have in that slot.

                  It makes no difference as to whether getting rid of Lukaku is a good idea or not.

                  1. FPL Virgin
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 3 months ago

                    Yes it does.

                    Lukaku is your key source of Manchester United points. You are contemplating removing that.

                    Pogba is the best replacement for that source of points. Not just because he plays for United; but because he is embarking on an outstanding season.

                    If you remove Lukaku without Pogba in your team, you can't get away with it.

                    I'd say the same whoever Pogba played for.

                    1. andy85wsm
                      • Has Moderation Rights
                      • 15 Years
                      8 years, 3 months ago

                      Thats the same as saying...

                      Lukaku or Jesus?

                      It depends, have you got Davies instead of Toby A because Davies will outscore him.

                      Its absolutely irrelevant as to whether Lukaku out is the smart move or not.

                      1. FPL Virgin
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 9 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        I respectfully disagree.

                        I'm comfortable doing Lukaku to Jesus if I have Pogba.

                        I wouldn't do the same move if I have Mkhi.

                      2. andy85wsm

                        • 15 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        You cant disagree with fact.

                        • 9 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        Have you ever seen that episode of friends were phoebe tries to get Ross to ever so slightly doubt the theory of evolution?

                        That's like you with the concept of coverage. It's never a good idea to be 100% against an idea or a theory. Having an open mind and entertaining the possibility that an opposing view could be valid is healthy.

                      4. FPL Virgin
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 9 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        You forced this onto coverage because you fervently oppose even the slightest notion of coverage.

                        I was making a point about Pogba.

                        Let's just agree to disagree.

                      5. andy85wsm

                        • 15 Years
                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        An irrelevant point which was my initial point.

    2. Arctic_Orangutans

      More minutes and goal threat

    3. FPL Virgin

      From what we've seen so far, Pogba is on course to be immense this season. He has become a £90m player. He could well be the top scoring midfielder and will comfortably keep pace with Lukaku for £3m less.

      Mkhi lacks goals in his game and will be rested much more.

      1. nadman89

        have you even followed mikhtiryan in his career hes doesnt lack goals . Also 6 goal in europa last year

          2 shots in the box so far this season. It's a bit Darren Fletcher esque.

    Down to 59k but my team is a mess

    Who's a bigger priority to get out, Hegazi or Yoshida? Who's more likely to get rested next game?

      I'd say Hegazi. There's some outside chance Yoshida plays especially after their horrible performance last week. I'm keeping Yoshida (start or 1st sub) and saving FT.

      1. RealSocialDads
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        If taking Yoshida out and keeping Hegazi in means being able to get Bavies without a hit, would you consider taking Yoshida out?

          Yes, get Bavies in imo

    Will Jesus get enough game time to compete with Lukaku?

    1. RealSocialDads
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

      1. SilkySkills

        I'm thinking about going Firmino, Morarta Jesus as my front 3 to get funds for my midfield

    2. Netley Lucas

      Dunno because of his injury last season. The evidence so far says yes, but that's based on too few games.

    Dawson > Davies?
    - or -
    JRod > Firmino?

    3.1 ITB
    Foster, Elliot
    Alonso, Dawson, Cedric, BSmith, Rangel
    Eriksen, RLC, Richarlison, Pogba, Atsu
    JRod, Kane, Lukaku

    Or I have a WC play in mind, but not many players involved, and seem goofy to use it so quickly after the break.

    247k with a solid score of 64. Need to hit my captain few times before next int break and hopefully break into the top 10k.

    Can then start my onslaught of top 100 by gw21
