We delve into the Opta data next, rolling out our usual post-Gameweek members’ article.

Both Merseyside clubs play a part in our assessment, while we also check out the contrasting fortunes from West Ham and Watford’s goal scoring midfielders.

Southampton’s in-form frontman is also among our featured players, as is a certain Man City wide man after a weekend return to the scoresheet.

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

    Young or Gross, who should leave first?

    1. Live Lad
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Young.
      I am willing to keep Gross but will sell him for Sterling. Might not be a bad idea to hold if it isn't for a big upgrade.

    2. Sune
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Gross

    morning all - need help with this rubbish team

    Foster (Elliot)
    Kolasinac, Nauton, Kabasele, (Hegazi) (Manquillo)
    Salah, Hazard, Choupo, Zaha (Ritchie)
    Kane, Firmino, Benteke

    Am thinking a -8 for Kolasinac, Ritchie, Benteke - Ogbonna, Sane, Gray

    Yes or No? or any alternatives -

    1. Emp

      no wouldnt lose benteke now how much itb?

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Isn’t he suspended?

      2. MattyW
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        0.3 ... he's suspended until the 28th so not great just sitting on the bench

    2. RIDZ
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      can't see those players could bring 8 points to cover. Just try to be wise, kick only unavailable. Keep Kola and get rid of Choupo+Benteke.

      1. MattyW
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        ok thanks for the reply, just tough raising the funds for a much needed City midfielder!

    3. Yellin' in my Ear
      • 10 Years

      Kola and manquillo to Christensen and Ogbonna/Masuaku?

      1. MattyW
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        still left with a suspended benteke and no city cover with that 🙁

        1. Emp
          • 14 Years

          ok, maybe austen oiver gray ?

  3. Pep Roulette

    Chances of Choupo Moting starting this week?

  4. jai1212

    A defender under 4.8?

    1. MattyW
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      plenty of west ham and watford ones

    2. BHA_Seagull

      Kenny for Everton , a snip at 4.4

          How close is Coleman? Would really like to have Kenny as an option for GW20 and 21

    3. Offs!de
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Kenny/Holgate
      Ogbonna/Masuaku

    4. korbendallas82
      • 12 Years

      West Brom good fixtures, form turn. Hegazi? West Ham same situation, ogbonna, Masuaku.

    5. RIDZ
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ogbonna or Masuaku. But make sure you won't have 3 blank players at week 21.

    6. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ogbonna/Masuaku.

      Don't go anywhere near Watford. They are a mess, regretting getting Kabasele in.

    7. Sune
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Robertson

  5. JAC THE CAT
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Fabianski
    Christensen - P.Jones - Dunk
    Hazard - Sterling - Zaha - Richarlison
    Kane - Firmino - Vardy

    Elliott - Mee - T.Carroll - Lowe

    Thinking a -4 and playing 3-5-2
    Carroll -> Sane
    Vardy -> DCL

    1. Strchld
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would do that.

    2. RIDZ
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would go for Pogba not Sane. You already have Sterling to cover City.

  6. IRBOX ⚽

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Don’t get the Rooney love, and I’m an Everton fan. Watching the match against the swans, he was off the pace and constantly turning over possession. Lucky assist from the pen miss, lucky assist for the Sigurdsson worldly and another pen. I would say he is off pens when Baines is back and that looks like his only real source of points at the moment

    1. *Reformed-Character*
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He won't be off pens when Baines returns....

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Ahhh 100% he will. Baines record is incredible.. and Rooney’s is very very poor. Leighton has always taken them for the Toffees, even with Rooney playing

  7. BHA_Seagull

    Bottomed , feedback appreciated

    I pulled the trigger on this team last night.
    Hoping it's going to be an English strikers Christmas party next couple of game weeks!

    Foster - Elliot
    Dunk - Ward - Tarkowski - Lowton - Kenny
    Salah - KDB - Hazard - Richarlison - Gross
    Rooney - Vardy - Kane

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Tarkowski suspended, Ward injured, Kenny’s time is almost up and Rooney has looked horrible. I would look to go cheap 3rd striker and upgrade your 2nd striker. Defence needs work too

    2. Baz
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Too much invested in your front 8. Vardy/Rooney --> DLC or Gross--> RLC. Then upgrade Foster-->DDG and Tark/Ward upgrades

      1. BHA_Seagull
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Agree my defence has needs attention.
        Took a -4 so leaving it for this week
        Vardy has done nothing for me since brining in 3 weeks ago , last chance.
        I think Rooney is nailed under BFS , assists and bonuses should be consistent.

  8. Big Col
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is Siggy to Pogba for this week worth a -4?

    1. RIDZ
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      no

  9. Strchld
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    A) Morata, Silva and TC » DCL, Sterling and Sane (Have Haz) for -4

    B) Alonso and Silva » Christiansen and Sterling

    Wouldnt want to lose either Morata or Alonso, but someone have to go if Silva is out. A could give me a strong middle (2 cities) and B gives me Haz and Morata but no Alonso and just one City player. Really hard decision. Any helps?

    1. Johnny Leghorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      B is a sideways move.

      1. Strchld
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Of course it its, but if Silva is out your have to downgrade someone to get Sterling/Sane in.
        Could make Alonso to Jones/Smalling also.

    2. agueroooooney
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. korbendallas82
      • 12 Years

      Selling Alonso now, seems like a bad move.

            Wait and see news on Silva

      2. Strchld
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Wouldnt want to. 0.1 short to do Mee and Silva to Masuaku and Sterling. Hate this game right now.

        1. korbendallas82
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Pogba?

          1. korbendallas82
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            A.

          2. Strchld
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            I should have atleast one of Sane and Sterling more than Pogba. So no.

  10. Afghanistanislas
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Which one would you keep for the next 3 GWs (have Hazard and would get Kane back for the DGW:
    A) Kane
    B) Morata

    1. Strchld
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kane if you have Haz.

    Fabianski - Elliot

    Abrahham - Kane - DCL

    A. Fabianski & Richarlison —> Adrian & Sterling (-4)
    B. Mee & Richarlison —> Ogbonna & Sterling (-4)
    C. Wimmer —> Ogbonna
    D. Richarlison —> Pogba

    Think it would be captain Sterling should he come in..

    i see Austin in quite a few teams but not Gray at Watford - with their games and Deeney out ... nobody like this move?

    1. Krionos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Depoitre a good shout with 2 Southampton defenders potentially out.

    2. Respect My Authoritah

      Decent punt. Austin is better though for me

  14. Baz

    Courtois (Elliot)

    Simpson Otamendi Lowton Dunk (3,9)

    Salah Coutinho Hazard Richarlson Cork

    Morata Kane DCL

    1. That Fantasy Guy

      Power 5 - I like it

      Had some worries about the cheap strikers, but there aren't really performing premium ones at the mo.

      1. martyhan

        Yeah im not sold on hazard. Only real reason I have him is for the Chelsea attacking cover .

          No worries. I went Ogbonna when he was .1 cheaper. Don't think there's much init tbh. Masuaku for the odd assist, Ogbonna does better in baps.

    2. martyhan

      Yeah one of the west ham lads for the double. Maybe ogbonna

    Need some serious surgery on my team. Made some big mistakes on a WC which I am still paying for. 2FT's
    a) Kane & Choupo > KDB & Austin (2.2m itb Kane in for morata in DGW)
    b) Kane & Choupo > Firmino & Pogba (same plan as a)
    c) Get shot of Morata instead of Kane for one of above
    d) Other (need to get some West Ham defs in there)

    Pope Elliot
    Ota Naughton Kenny Mee Hune
    Hazard Sterling Salah TC Choup-Moting
    Morata Kane DCL
    0.4 itb

    Thanks guys

        Certainly can, that was what I meant by c) (badly labelled by me)

        Just hate to have a big £12m+ hole in my squad come GW 21

    Richarlison to Pogba?

    What would you do with D. Silva without any FT ? (will lose 0.1 SV if he drops overnight)
