Attention turns to West Ham assets at Fulham

Attention now turns to West Ham’s devastating attacking players in Gameweek 17’s late Saturday kick-off.

All of the usual suspects have kept their starting places with Felipe Anderson (£7.3m), Robert Snodgrass (£5.3m) and Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez (£6.4m) in the line-up.

The Hammers should enjoy their afternoon at Craven Cottage as Fulham come into the encounter with the same back-four that was taken apart in Gameweek 16.

Joe Bryan (£4.8m) is at left-back with Denis Odoi (£4.4m) playing on the right again.

Calum Chambers retains his central midfield role while Ryan Sessegnon (£6.0m) is absent from the matchday entirely.

Aleksandr Mitrovic (£6.8m) is flanked in the front three by Andre Schürrle (£5.8m) and Aboubakar Kamara (£4.4m).

Fulham XI: Rico; Bryan, Mawson, Ream, Odoi; Cairney, Chambers, Seri; Schurrle, Mitrović, Kamara

West Ham XI: Fabianski; Masuaku, Diop, Balbuena, Zabaleta; Rice, Noble; Antonio, Anderson, Snodgrass; Chicharito.

    More scared of Kamara than Kane, benched him for Richa after swapping it a few times.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I did that with AWB and Gray. Was convinced here. My decision again, however looks I won't need the bench

  8. jtreble
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Why didn’t Vertonghen play today?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Probably rotation

    2. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Thigh injury.

  9. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Salah could kill our rankings tomorrow again

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Higher than 100% EO?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Doesn't matter. High owned by quality players

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Thanks.

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

      Yup.

  10. Regin
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    So what should we Kane owners do? Get rid for aguero? Or for Salah? One thing is for sure not captaining him again in the near future.

    1. el polako
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Getting rid, man is a fraud.

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I'm keeping but not captaining. Sold him before Everton away last season and he got a fluke brace and then went on a run.

    3. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Selling tonight even if Fanderson looks like the real deal again

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

    jimenez or mitro ? on wc. thanks 🙂

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Both

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

        mmh bit cheap 🙂

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Mitro then get Jim gw23

  12. HD7
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I hesitated to do Salah Success to Sterling Chicha (-4)...

    Please Chicha dont punish me...
    Anderson you can score score as much as you can...
    Fab... get a cleanie or maybe just get your specialty - a penalty save 😀

  13. Bartowski
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I know it's highly unlikely given the pedigree of their opposition but if Man U won tomorrow they could pull a huge four points clear in the battle for sixth ahead of their league rivals, such as Wolves and Watford!

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wow

    2. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      It's the motivation that team needs

  14. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    3 goals and nothing for Pereyra. 🙁

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Heavily involved in celebrations I hear.

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      He was awesome I watched the game on the second screen

  15. Deulofail
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I sold Antonio for Sane knowing full well that Antonio had a good chance to start given rumours about WHU forwards' fitness and injury concerns. I'm rather pleased that Sané got in their first with a solid score. I can rest easy watching this game with Anderson and Snoddy in my team. Just feel a bit lost without a WHU triple up this week.

    Cue Antonio brace 😐

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

      Hmm, I think this might be the most boring thing I've posted in 7 days. Maybe give this one a miss.

    2. Sarcastic Warnock
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Sane did the damage already. You can't have them all 🙂

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

        Fo sure, I'm not complaining, but it would have been exciting as the sole owner of Antonio playing high up the pitch against a likely woeful Fulham defence 😀

        1. Sarcastic Warnock
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          True but he could blank as well. Should be an exciting match.

  16. J T
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    If Sterling and Jesus can dominate headers against Everton I wonder how Kane will do?

    1. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      One assist

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

      Kick started his season there last year.

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

        About time Kane starts to justify his price tag, it’s nearly christmas...

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

    Why Maddison did not finish the game ?

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Got injured

  18. Pacer.
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    BIG ALEKS time

    Unleash da beast

  19. drughi
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Chicharito and Fabianski needs to bring in some points

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I'll take double digits from each.

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        would be dreamy

    2. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Is not possible with BIG ALEKS

  20. Scotty B
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Kamara is going to hurt us owners again here isn't he for a 3rd week running?!

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

      I got 1/2 returns so far. Probably missing out again if he magics up another goal.

    2. Richd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      “Hurt”? Who are you ML rivals, potatoes ?

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

        I think he means that points on the bench are painful (which can be somewhat true, somewhat not)

  21. HD7
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Hi Managers!

    Have 2 FT... what changes would you suggest here ?

    Fab
    AWB Robbo Alonso Belerin
    Salah Richa FAnderson
    Success Kane Auba

    Subs: Button, Camarasa, Kenedy, Digne

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I suggest you wait until all the games are played.

      1. HD7
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Of course no changes until next friday... aint bad to get some ideas though 😉

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wait till cup games

  22. Pacer.
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    What will everyone do if big ALEKS he score 6 gole

  23. Pacer.
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Hearing rumours big aleks plan to score many goles tonight at the football stadium

  24. noahzark22
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Anderson and Kamara braces!

  25. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Is Kane now a midfielder. If so is Auba the best replacement or should I take a -4 for Sterling and play 3-5-2?

  26. Scotty B
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Is there any chance in hell of TAA playing tomorrow?
    He isn't even listed in the provisional squad

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

      No chance.

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

      50/50.

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

      He’ll start

  27. Bellerinmondo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Think I'll only sell Kane if someone buys me a big sofa for xmas (Spurs v Bournemouth on boxing day)

    1. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      With several great options Kane is nothing to be scared of. And his ceiling appears now to be 2 goals, not 4

  28. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Kamaraa hatty incoming

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

      You started him? I benched Rich for Kamara and everyone was "you nuts" 😀

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Yup.Loll

  29. Regin
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Will Aguero start next week? If yes, think I will do Kane to Kun.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I'd expect minutes midweek and a start vs Palace.

    2. Numb
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Dunno after Jesus did well today

  30. Our Tiny Windows
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    So it’s not very exciting but TAA to Kolasinac seems to be my natural transfer.
    Wise?
