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.

    Will Arnautovic start next week?

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

      Most likely if Bilic moves to a back 4 again

  2. davies
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Which option?

    A) Morata + RLC + Bellerin (433)

    B) Chicharito + Salah + Mee (343)

    1. FantasyNik123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      B, but only barely.

    Best way to get Kane in? Currently on:
    Lukaku + Mounie > Kane + Hemed

    Was planning on dropping Jesus instead earlier but I'm starting to think keeping him is better now. Plus I don't see a way to do Jesus > Kane without massive team surgery or WCing

    DDG Elliot
    Bertrand Dawson Trippier Mee Rangel
    Alli Mhki Salah Ritchie Brady
    Lukaku Jesus Mounie

      I would drop Ritchie to Carroll and use Brady as your 4th midfielder on rotation

    Any1 else have ali kane eriksen

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA

      Just the last two...

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years

      Davies Erikson Kane, its a worry

      1. shortymak

        Should i keep all 3 or sell ali

        1. Aussiemilan
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Alli can Easily become one of the other premium mids, who else have you got?

          1. shortymak
            • 11 Years

              salah if you wanna be safe, Coutinho for the gamble, Liverpool cover that way

  5. Sadio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Mane to Antonio this week looks likely for me.

    Would you hold Morata this week or get Lukaku for -4?

    If I don't make that move this week, I'm likely to do it the following week.

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Lukaku to score against Everton this week is set in stone. Going by the way Everton defended against Spurs on the weekend, I fancy him to get a brace.

    2. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I think you hold Morata and hope for the best. Most will capt Kane so any damage would be limited

  6. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I see scout are now going to copy and have expected goals data
    Wonder what gave them that idea

    1. FPL Kangaroo

      Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnn

    2 FT 2.0 ITB

    Want to fix my midfield....any suggestions?

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Danilo real rotation risk...

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Yep understood that. Didn't play him last gameweek (and he started)

        Just feel like I have to handle one of Tadic/Willian first...

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Tadic to one of the 5.5ish Midfielders (Gross,Mooy etc) and then Willian to Alli/Erikson?

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        That could help a lot actually. Thank you for the suggestion

        1. Aussiemilan
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          besides I think willian is on borrowed time with hazard just around the corner

  8. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Need to bring in Kane in as few good transfers as possible. Have 2Ft am willing to go up to a -4. Suggestions much appreciated.

    Forster
    Trippier Alderweireld Bertrand Hegazi
    Eriksen Debruyne Atsu
    Lukaku Jesus Gabbiadini

    Elliot Carroll Richarlison Mee

    0.9m ITB

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      It's a bit of a mess in that you have max Spurs and the wrong Spurs defenders on top of that! I'd say something like

      Toby --> 4.0
      Jesus --> Kane

      or

      Toby --> 4.0
      Lukaku --> Kane
      Gabbiadini --> Firmino/Vardy (-4)

      1. Pierce34
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        If the latter the Gabbi move can wait until it's for free obviously.

  9. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Chicarito has always been a better bench player than a 90 minute player, his best role is as a sub. Will Bilic cotton on and bench him?

    1. FPL Kangaroo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Bilic may bench him for GW5 now and replace him with Ayew seeing how well he did when he came on.

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

        I highly doubt that. In the slight chance he gets benched would probably be for Arnautovic but would be ridiculous to bench him though

      2. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Chicarito does not really fit in at West Ham, everything in the air. Im thinking Caroll may be an option. Only 5.9 he cant be any worse than Gabbidini

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Hey Trigger what happened to the team you setup at start of season based on votes. Can't see it on your site? How would it be doing now?

  10. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Please choose Abraham or Joselu for 3rd striker, and why? (Have Kane & Lukaku and want to sell Chica).
    Thanks.

    1. FPL Kangaroo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Firmino.

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Joselu out of those two, I don't see him being dropped anytime soon as long as he scores a goal every 2-3 weeks, but hes still likely to only get u 2 points most weeks. Tammy will be on the bench once Bony is fit in a week or so

  11. Jason Bourne
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    How did Tom ince look today?

    1. FPL Kangaroo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Hit the post. Other than that he was a ghost.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Like a younger version of his father...

        1. FPL Kangaroo
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Haha yeah

      2. Jason Bourne
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Worth keeping in your opinion? Gotten me 3 pts per game but is due to drop in price. Do not mind eating the drop and keeping for Leicester at home.

        1. FantasyNik123
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Its what I'm doing. Always looking to score, had 6 shots and all wouldve been on target if they werent all blocked lol.

    2. Carlton_Goal
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Pretty average, no end product

  12. Zoostation
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Badly want City attack in but it will come at the cost of Lukaku.

    Worried about ownership and the fact he seems good for a goal against Everton.

    Or am I overthinking this as Jesus provides better value and I'm going to end up captaining Kane anyways for the next 4 GW's?

    1. Hotdogs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Who's in your front 3?

      I'm in a similar position but I'm thinking of dropping lukaku for Kane which leaves me with Kane + Jesus up front

      1. Zoostation
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Kane Lukaku and Chicharito.

        Jesus gives me City and funds the pea to Vardy party.

        1. Hotdogs
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Sounds like good to me

          But would wait until after the CL games before making a move

          Nothing worse than getting an injured player after using 2 transfers

          1. Zoostation
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Yes I need to wait but have to be mindful of rises and falls as I have exact cash to make these moves.

        2. Aussiemilan
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Kane Jesus Vardy > Kane Lukaku Chicharito
          for me atleast

  13. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Mané to Cout, KDB or Silva? Hmmm. . .

    1. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I went coutinho, its a gamble but when hes on hes liverpools best by far!

    2. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Who are your other mids? I like KDB even though I just got rid of him.

      1. Aussiemilan
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        but when city go back to playing against 11 men and KDB drops back deep do you still want him? he looked great against pool once they went to 10 men and he could get forward and do what he does best, has looked terrible for fantasy the rest of the season

  14. Ozymandias
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Yoshida to Cedric or Tadic to Silva ?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Not a fan of either trade

    2. Hotdogs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Tadic first for me

  15. John Stones
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    why was Lowe subbed at the 62nd min?? bit lucky to get the cs but concerns for next week?.?

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

      Antonio was causing problems for him plus he wasn't getting forward much. Just 1 bad game really, wouldn't be too worried

  16. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    How this? 2ft to bring in Vardy and Moting.

    Foster
    Davies Jones Alonso
    Mkhi Eriksen Ramsey Moting
    Kane (C) Firmino(vc) Vardy

    Fabs Mbemba Fernandez Chalobah

    1.1m itb.

  17. cylus11 ( Manager) - Russia…
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Thinking to transfer out Chichcharito after last game.
    Looking to get in Vardy for a 4 pt hit vs Huddersfield. He is on penalties too.
    Does it look too kneejerking or should wait one more Gw
    Thoughts

  18. barracuda
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    With healthy Carroll, Lanzini and Arnie coming back, plus Ayew.. I think Chica will eventually become an impact player at the best..

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      You might be right but I hope not. Can't see who I would replace him with in the 7 mil and under bracket.
      If he has to go I will probably just go 2 upfront and upgrade elsewhere.

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nah, Bilic didnt pay 20m Euros to bench him.

    3. Carlton_Goal
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Doubt it. Antonio, Lanzini, Arnie playing behind chicha is still west hams strongest front 4

  19. I Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Foster
    Jones, Maguire, Cedric
    Eriksen, Salah, Mkhitaryan, Brady
    Kane, Morata, Firmino

    Elliot, Dunk, Chalobah, Naughton.

    1 FT 0.0 ITB

    Planning to save this week but who would you be looking to bring in for GW6? Feel like I need to beef up my defence a bit. Looking at Davies, Kolasinac and Mendy as my main targets but don't see any obvious downgrade to raise funds for one of them.

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah that's the thing with having nothing ITB and mostly fodder it is quite inflexible.
      But I would rather have 11 good ones than 14 average.

      Don't know how you do it either. Might be best left alone as that teams looks good.

  20. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone else have 8-9 away this week and will have 9 home players for the coming week. Hoping for a bumper haul.
    I need to stop being average.
    200 points and 50 points this week- average of 50 points - that's very average. 1.2 mil OR decidedly average 🙂

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Had 8 away players last week.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Not bad to be average this week so I suppose.

        You had a Great. GW1 - 100 points. Hard to avoid the red arrows after that but get back up there. Well played.

    2. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I will have 10 home players this week if I play Mooy, 9 if I play Bertrand.

    3. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      8 and 8.

      196 points, 1.5m OR. It's still too early to be worried about rank but yes, a big GW would be nice.

  21. The Legend Squad
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Have done Mane to Erikson to set up a Spurs triple for their great run of fixtures. See anything else worth a -4?

    RMT

    Foster
    Alonso Jones Cedric Naughton
    Erikson Ali Pogba Mhki
    Kane Firmino

    (Elliot Carrol Mbemba Quaner)

    1. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      looks solid, not far off my team, but ive decided to start Elliot, sick of juggling starting keeper every week and watching Elliot rake up points on my bench!

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      No you're good to go. Nice team

    3. jia you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Eggs in two baskets, if Spurs and/or MUN underperform you've ad it mate!

      1. The Legend Squad
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Your not wrong. High risk high reward strategy there early days. Need to do something to get into the top 1m! Rubbish season so far

        1. The Legend Squad
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          You're

          1. jia you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Tell me about it, I've had a shocking 2 GWs, 400k to 1.7m OR! GL!!

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Nice team. Feast or a famine though, but why not take a risk- it's early days.

  22. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I have chicharito, which I sadly also captained.
    I also have 0.5 ITB

    Should i:

    1 keep,for one more game
    2 bring hemed for 4.9 to generate cash for the future
    3 chicharito and richarlison for firmino and chaloba for -4

    1. FantasyNik123
      • 12 Years

      1

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      option 3

  23. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    A) Salah Kane Vardy

    B) Jesé/Choupo-Moting Kane Lukaku.

    1. FantasyNik123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      A

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Interesting. There is now option C 😉

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      C) Pogba Morata Kane

      1. Aussiemilan
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        well this seems like the obvious one but depends on your team?

        1. Make United Great Again
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Would give me this team:

          Elliot
          Jones Daniels Bertrand
          Pogba Mhki Eriksen Richardlison
          Kane Morata Firmino

          1. Aussiemilan
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            yeah done, id go with that bud, only other worry for me is daniels, Lowe/Schindler/Lascelles/Clark for me. feel like Bournemouth are going to be whipping boys this year

            1. Make United Great Again
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Cheers. And yeah I'll downgrade Daniels soon, just more pressing issues at the moment.

    Anybody got links to the guys on the scoutcast's teams?

    1. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Team 370

  25. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Williams' price drop will be handy

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Everton defenders look overpriced to me.

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        CS pts are important, doesnt really matter what we have to pay for that

    2. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      have got a handy schedule coming up!

  26. COYS Down Under
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Would you prefer Morata or Jesus?

    1. Aussiemilan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Morata

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Morata

  27. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    ATTENTION: Everyone who transferred in Ben Davies, this is a reminder that he once played for Swansea. I repeat, Ben Davies used to play for Swansea City. That is all.

    1. Make United Great Again

      ?
      You saying armband based on the score against old team scenario?

      At his current rate, Ben Davies is going to score 304 points this year. Not bad for a 5.5 LB!

    Ville Ronka's team ID anyone?

        Thank you. Didn't notice they updated the ID. 🙂

        That was also a handy way to show that you are now higher than Ronka in the career HOF, Torresmagic 🙂

        Nicely done.

          He's ahead of me now but not for the rest of 17/18 😀

    Anyone see a Lukaku/Kane reversal this weekend... Kane 6 points, Lukaku 16 points? Still kind of have to captain Kane in fairness given the poll & his form & fixture

      Kanes out of August, the goals are going to come now!
