The best West Ham FPL options for their favourable fixtures

West Ham United’s nine goals in their last three matches have set them up as the latest Fantasy Premier League flavour of the month.

However, the recent injury to Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m) has changed the thought process for capitalising on the Hammers’ form and fixtures.

Felipe Anderson (£7.3m) seems to have been the go-to replacement but his midfield position means that he is not a direct alternative to Arnautovic.

So we’ve analysed the options at West Ham to see which offers the best potential in the coming weeks and which are the most affordable.

  15. cescpistols111

    Mane + TAA -> Robertson + Sane?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      One just do mane to sane

  16. Dele
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Snodgraas a lovely little option, didn’t realise how cheap he was.

  17. Dybala10
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Owned TAA twice this season and has got me 2 points in 3 games. After his knock and their next few fixtures I'm looking to move on.

    Best option until GW22, when I'll bring in Robertson?

    A) Vertonghen
    B) Luiz (own Alonso)
    C) Kolasinac
    D) Laporte

    1. Jamb0
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      C worth a punt

  18. InvertedWinger
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    With Son a strong rotation risk for burnley this weekend, Best option to replace David Silva is:
    A) Felipe Anderson
    B) Sane (-4)

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      A

  19. Link
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Lumbered with Pogba in my draft league. Worth ditching for someone like Snodgrass? Very likely he'll be gone forever if I do as someone will pick him up on waivers.

  20. Jamb0
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Best replacement for David Silva? Have 8.8mil.
    Already own Alli.. so I guess Felipe Anderson with form and fixtures the obvious choice?

    1. photek
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      i would get anderson in

      1. AlpoShearer
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Anderson

    2. balint84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I would buy an other City midfielder.

      1. Jamb0
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I have Sane already and priced out on Sterling... Not sure B.Silva/Mahrez will do better than Anderson over Christmas period?

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I got Anderson’s last 4 hauls, he’s some what saved me from poor game weeks, hopefully he can carry on the form

      1. Jamb0
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Nice! I feel a little late to the party on him, but he still has the fixtures and at least is a sure starter where other options aren't.. fingers crossed he can hauling

  21. Evil Greg
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I got Snoddy for Martial this week.

    Needed the funds just in case I need to jump hard on Kane, Salah or Hazard! :mrgreen:

  22. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    A) Haz to Sterling
    B) Salah,Duffy to Sterling,Alonso(-4)
    C) Duffy to Luiz (No city attack)

    1. balint84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      C

  23. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Repost sorry
    A definite hobby of mine to watch scoutcast, but IMO Joe went round in square circles regarding price rises.
    He went Mtro to Arnie early to get the price rise. Arnie got injured and he maintains it a bad move to do the early transfer. Fair enough.
    The next week, once bitten, he held off on a Arnie to Wilson transfer and he discovered Wilson got injured. However, if my mind serves me right, nobody knew of the Wilson injury until after the deadline. On top of that, having time to think, he went back to Mitro (after 1 week) and Mitro had a 45 minute cameo.
    What this proves to me is absolutely nothing.
    Personally, I go for early transfers and it probably costs me 2 hits a year. I end up with 107 mil team at Xmas and my rivals have around 103. The 2 mil net gain I assure people pays off over the 16 or so gameweeks I have left. Especially on a WC where the extra money comes in handy.
    I do play the game for ML purposes and not the overall. Winning the 1 000 quid is far more rewarding.
    Finally, all the newer players tend to look closely at the rises and the level of accuracy is rewarding compared to the information, or more the point, lack of it when the pressers come out.

    1. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Think the highest team value I ever had was around 118m. The game was more fun then! Mark still does the early transfer from the predisposition of that time 5+ years ago.

  24. Evil Greg
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Son off on 71 mins last night, so basically he starts then. Son vs Sterling captain & favouring Son for me.

    1. Lazaretti
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      So I will swap D.Silva to Son then.

    2. InvertedWinger
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      He looked really tired and Lucas made a big impact so I wouldn't be so sure of that

    3. Jamb0
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Huh? He was tired and they were losing... he certainly wasn't hauled off to be rested for the weekend

  25. Reds
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    A) Sterling, Jimenez
    B) Snodgrass, Kane

    B has fixtures on its side, while I feel A is more explosive......

    1. balint84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I would choose B, but A is close

  26. dbeck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I’m a TAA and Wilson owner, should I be worried and has anything been said on their injuries?

    1. Ynwalfc
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I switched Wilson for Jiminez, I think he’ll be out this weekend.

  27. Jam0sh
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Would you go for Snodgrass over F.Anderson if that would give an option to upgrade Sane to Sterling at some point?

    1. Evil Greg
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Sane looked a bit immature against Chelsea so yes.

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Probably yes but City also played better when he was on the field

    2. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    3. arndff_
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

  28. Lukakwho
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    What would you do here with 2 free transfers? I can’t think of how to even use one. I want to use one so what would you suggest?

    Fabianski (Steele)

    Alonso, TAA, Doherty, Dunk, AWB

    Son, Sane, Richarlison, Anderson, Gunnarson

    Auba, Kane, Wilson

    0.1ITB

    1. adey70
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Probably not what you'll want to do, but maybe consider downgrading out of form Alonso to in-form Luiz. And then you've got about 1.5 in your war chest as down payment eventual Sane to Sterling. Please note, though. I'm doing shite this season.

    2. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      keep on eye to Wilson.. probably just change him one

  29. Evil Greg
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone ever had the City line up before 11:30 before ala Liverpool?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      not lineup but Jamie jackson can tell you who is out, sometime he is right 😉

  30. jomikijiq

    For Ryan:

    A) Foster
    B) Lossl
    C) Rico
    D) McCarthy
    E) hold and try to fund an upgrade with 2 FT next week
