Mitrovic the most-owned FPL asset on show in Fulham v Watford

Fulham take on Watford at Craven Cottage as Gameweek 6 gets underway at 12:30 BST, with three players on show who can boast a double-digit ownership.

Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.9m), Jose Holebas (£4.9m) and Roberto Pereyra (£6.3m) are owned by 24.3%, 19.6% and 16.7% of Fantasy Premier League bosses respectively and all three start – as expected – in the lunch-time encounter in west London.

Watford indeed are unchanged for the sixth match on the spin, while Slavisa Jokanovic has made two alterations to his Fulham starting XI, both of which come in defence: Denis Odoi (£4.5m) and Cyrus Christie (£4.4m) make way for Calum Chambers (£4.4m) and Timothy Fosu-Mensah (£4.5m) respectively.

Ryan Sessegnon‘s (£6.2m) much-hyped Fantasy potential continues to diminish, as the youngster lines up “out of position” at left-back for the second week in a row.

Only Sergio Aguero (£11.4m) has had more efforts on goal than Mitrovic (20) this season, but no FPL forward can match the Serbian’s tally of ten shots on target.

The Cottagers might find it hard to break down their visitors this afternoon, however: only two clubs have allowed fewer shots on target than the Hornets, who rank fourth for least amounts of efforts on goal conceded in 2018/19.

No FPL defender has created as many chances, registered more assists or fired over as many crosses as Holebas this season, meanwhile.

Fulham XI (4-3-3): Bettinelli; Fosu-Mensah, Mawson, Chambers, Sessegnon; Seri, McDonald, Johansen; Schurrle, Mitrovic, Vietto

Watford XI (4-4-2): Foster; Janmaat, Cathcart, Kabasele, Holebas; Hughes, Doucoure, Capoue, Pereyra; Deeney, Gray

    Cholevas so why do we change that to Holebas?

    Same with Hrvatska -> Croatia.

    Never understood this.

      Who cares ?

      Different words and letters are pronounced differently in different countries.

      Lol some salty retorts, was just a thought

    4. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Slightly numpty
      We dont call any countries by their native name, just as other languages dont call England England

      1. Catenaccio FC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        This.. For example nobody calls Germany Deutschland.. And in Greek we call England Agglia..

        1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          I think most of the EU call us something much worse

    5. *sigh*
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      It’s like Jonty to Joe while Its rumoured his real name is Joseph.Mysterious man of mystery.

      1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        He managed to make his name more dullard

    6. Four Hit Wonder
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      A lot of countries have different names in different languages. Sverige is just one example. Deutschland. España.

      When transcribing names into a language - which is done when alphabets differ - there are rules for each language, and the goal is to make the speaker pronounce it as similar as possible to the native speaker.

      So my guess is that Cholevas actually sounds more like you said Holebas.

      Or there are two ways to transcribe Greek.

      Happy?

    forget your mendy and robertson

    holebas and doherty essential.

      Any sons of yours playing in this game?

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        only mitrovic

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Own Holebas and getting Doherty this week both look good options

  3. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Hughes looks like Watford's worst player. Poor in possession.

  4. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    I’m not a fan of clubs using the “England fans in Russia” tune for chants.

  5. Oven Glover
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mitro angry.

  6. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Owning Kabasele is so frustrating, comes close from a set piece every GW then lets in a goal late on to take away his CS

    1. Rsforstar
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      its like ben mee last year lol

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Owned him last year too & was massively frustrated

  7. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    That Vietto is class. Great composure on the ball.

    1. Texas Pete
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Caught my eye too.

  8. #FPLBhuna
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mitro 100% getting a yellow today

    1. TAT
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Yup. Brought him in only this week, so that's unavoidable.

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Same

    2. polis
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      A decent shout most weeks

    3. Four Hit Wonder
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Not if he gets a straight red.

  9. The Mandalorian
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Hugh Grant in the stands watching Fulham.

    1. Hooky
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      You had me at Hugh

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I thought you meant Hugh Laurie xD

  10. Bielsa's Bucket
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Don't think I've heard them mention Sessegnon once - ain't even seen him on pitch.

    1. Hooky
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I assume they are playing him today to try to get at Janmaat but he hasn't got forward much yet.

  11. Jimmy Floyd
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mitro looks very angry today, hope he doesn’t lose the plot and get a red

    1. Midlands Saint73
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Just got him in on WC so there is a chance

    2. #FPLBhuna
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Really hope not

      Just got him in

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Kabasele has had his number so far.

  12. VanDijksToWatchOutFor

    Who is the Fulham penalty taker, do we know?

    1. polis
      • 12 Years

      Mitro

      1. polis

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          1. polis
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 7 months ago

            I know but if the question is more general, he's in the picture.

    2. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Mitro

    3. IRBOX ⚽

    6. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years

        • 10 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Thx I don't have a dog in the fight (good game though), but I'm rooting for the Mitro v Red. Care to lay odds?

  13. #FPLBhuna
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mitro is very similar to diego isn’t he lol

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      A sabre toothed tiger?

    2. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years

      Yes they both wear budgie smugglers

    3. Birds of Prey
      • 10 Years

      A poor man's version.

  14. FlockofSeagulls
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Commentator - Mitrovic has many talents, including being able to start an argument in an empty room.

    Classic! 😆

    1. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No it isn't.

        You must be fun at parties. 😆

        1. Marvin Moon

          Also you may be unaware of the reference.

    2. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      He’s obsessed with Kabasele. Keeps going on about how big and strong he is.

      Getting a bit weird now.

      1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Maybe he has first hand experience

        1. Four Hit Wonder
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Or he's dying to.

    3. Oven Glover
      • 8 Years

      Said about Craig Bellamy as well.

              I was hoping you weren’t referring to the NRL coach in Australia

                No clue about NRL. Lots of interesting (shocking) stories about the Craig I referred to. Once whacked Riise with a golf club.

      No thanks guys, I am looking for positivity...have some sympathy for those who triple capped Mitro

      1. Four Hit Wonder
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Who would be mad enough to do that?

        I capped Laca, that's mad, but capping Mitro is a whole new level of madness.

  18. Francescoli

    2. Brosstan

      Id put my money on Mawson

  19. SirStevieG

    Remember when Mawson was good.

    1. Rostah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Nope. I do remember when he played with Fabianski though. Made him good from an FPL perspective.

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No?

  20. No Salah
    • 6 Years

    Mawson red incoming

  21. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mawson deserved an orange card for that. Bad tackle.

  22. Zladan
    • 6 Years

    Deeney bullying Mawson out there.

  23. The Mandalorian

    I hate when Deeney plays against us (Arsenal) - but has a neutral, he is amazing in what he does, he isn't Messi, but he does the job and eggs team on

    Fulham keep trying to be Barcelona, end up losing the ball stupidly and then hacking a Watford player down in frustration.
