Are West Ham defenders worth FPL investment?

1,275 Comments
Share

Three clean sheets on the bounce have placed West Ham’s defence back on the Fantasy Premier League radar.

The Hammers have not conceded a single goal since Andre Gray (£5.9m) scored for Watford in Gameweek 3.

Following the 3-1 win at Vicarage Road, Norwich, Aston Villa and Manchester United have all gone up against Manuel Pellegrini’s men and failed to make a breakthrough.

Interest in West Ham’s defensive assets is understandably on the increase, but are they worth the investment.

This article aims to uncover the Hammers’ clean sheet potential over their upcoming fixtures and which individual assets warrant the spending.

As it uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those who are signed up for the 2019/20 season can access it in full.

What is West Ham’s clean sheet potential?

Lessons learned from Gameweek 6:

      He was more nailed than Diop last year wasn't he? Things took an unexpected turn.

    Sorry, got bottomed out just then so apologies for the re-post.

    On a WC, would you rather have the combo of:

    A) Otamendi + Maddison + Auba
    B) Tomori + Son + Firmino

    I should also mention that B would leave me with tripple Liverpool and Chelsea since I also have Salah, TAA, Mount, and Tammy.

    Thanks

      A for me. Mad and Auba in great form with great fixtures, perfect combo. City not great at the back but still have more clean sheet potential than most plus Ota good for a goal and pretty nailed.

        Many thanks for the affirmation. I have gone for A. What worries me is that everyone is of the opinion that Son is a must have and if I am playing the WC is it madness to not include him?

          I wouldn’t worry about that. I did my WC last week and brought him in but I certainly wouldn’t describe him as essential. I’ll be monitoring Spuds next 3 fixtures and seeing how he does, if not great Mad is my most likely replacement. I’m a bit worried about how he’ll do with the crisis of sorts there at the moment.

            Thanks for that 🙂 I like Son as a player but if the whole team isn't performing well then it gets even more difficult for them to get points. Classic example is Digne - great player but there is no one at the end of his cross. Will have to wait and see like you say. For now, I am also happy with the Mad + Auba combo. Cheers!

      You have good fixtures coming up. That would give Pepe a chance to finally fully settle in and start justifying the price tag. He is a great player. Auba is in great form and another top quality player. Really excited to see Tierny in action soon and assess to see if he would be a great FPL pick. Exciting times ahead (from a Liverpool fan).

    Sad to see Pep trotting out the old 'he's got a good heart, he's not a racist' line about Silva. There's a reason in this country we don't regularly have monkey chants directed at players from the stands, or golllywogs selling jam in the supermarkets. Silva might be the loveliest guy on Earth, but what is acceptable in his country is not acceptable in ours, and he will have to apologise for his foolishness.

              So what are you disputing?

              The imagery, essentially our 'gollywog' is so acceptable in Spain and Portugal that he has been foolish enough to think that other countries endorse such racist imagery, and jokes.

              So what's the problem

                      There is no tone. Those images are acceptable there, they are not acceptable here.

                      Perhaps you apply your own tone on account of your own thoughts and feelings. Ever consider that?

        Mendy does represent or speak for all black people. It's no more about how only he individually feels about Silva's racism than in of the case of, for example, Lukaku.

        How do you feel about hundreds of fans making monkey chants at Lukaku. Are you offended by that?

      Looking forward to the incorrect “it definitely wasn’t racist” posts

      No individual (Benjamin Mendy included) has the right to say “it wasn’t racist”

      They can only say “I personally didn’t find it racist”

      Might seem pedantic, but there is a positively HUGE difference

        In the 1970s and 1980s players had to shoulder cultural and institutional racism and they were taken as 'good sports' if they just accepted it as banter. The idea that the responsibility for speaking up or fighting this should lie on their shoulders only (they who were oppressed and had no power anyway) is a very naieve attitude and one that I feel, ultimately, condones racism.

        Ditto the 'offended on their behalf' posts.

        Just look to Italy where the institutional racism is so ingrained that Lukaku has basically had to take on the chin that institutions have essentially accepted explanations that hundreds or thousands of fans monkey chanting him are doing so out of an 'affection' for him, or as a sign of respect for the threat he poses as a striker.

        That's offensive. It's not Lukakus job to smash that.

          I was also glad Kickout specifically referenced the word ‘banter’ in their comments on why they find it unacceptable

          Again, may seem pedantic, or killjoy etc - but the word “banter” should never be used in the same sentence to excuse any behaviour that could be condoned as racist - it’s far too sensitive a topic, close to far too many people’s hearts to disrespect with the word “banter” or “snowflake” etc imo, regardless of anyone’s subjective opinions on the player’s intent - good, bad or indifferent, and anyone’s own opinion on whether or not they personally found it racist

          In a way it will be a positive in the long run though, as education is the way forward here rather than retaliation or punishments - the chances of anyone properly educated on the matter engaging in this type of behaviour or holding those outdated types of opinions, should be virtually nil

                  And so it is just as well that the decision on what action to take will be based on proliferation of the kind of racial stereotypes and jokes that have historically been used not only to offend but to oppress, dehumanise and degrade minorities, and not whether Ben Mendy or indeed I am offended by them.

              He's also a representative of the club brand, any sponsorship branding and really an ambassador for the PL and football in general. I 100% understand his desire to protect the good name of a player who likely he knows is a proper little stand up guy (and on of my favourite players!). But it's disappointing that they didn't just put their hands up and admit to making a well intentioned gaff. Really he's just opened himself up to needing to go on the same educational course that Bernardo will have to go on. You just can't have a player posting racist stereotypes and on camera joking about a black man in a black shirt being invisible and expect to make excuses. That time has gone

                He is very hit and miss, some games he is playing in a more advanced role and others he is sitting back more, very much 50/50 but 100% has the ability to score high, not afraid to shoot from outside the box and has a good eye for a killer pass

                One keeper to Button
                Digne
                Montoya- there are better picks
                King
                Haller
                Guendouzi- although he might be okay for bench
                Kelly- I don’t like him as an option but for cheap maybe he’s okay
                Greenwood

                Greenwood again could be okay depending on formation you’d use

              There's a video of bilva asking Mendy why he's naked but he's just wearing a black t shirts so I doubt this is the only two instances bilva has made a joke about his race. At least make the guy do some history classes.

                He hasn't time for history because he's speaking 4 or 5 languages. Does that mean he has a few words of a fifth language?

                100% agree. He might be good at heart and not racist, but he still needs to know what is acceptable and what isn't. And the defence that Mendy didn't have a problem with it is BS imo. He does not speak for the sentiments of an entire race

            The ‘interesting’ point here is that BSilva (and a number of other people) appear not to understand why what he posted was offensive / racist.

            Shows how much education is needed still (say what you want about the UK but we are way ahead of most countries in respect of anti-racism and inclusion)

              It's a casual, surface level racism disguised as" banter " that people like Alan sugar think is funny. For them not realise it's racist beggars belief.

            Proving that someone is racist is possible pretty hard to do. Knowing someone's intent is nearly impossible unless you are a mind reader. It could be he is just a number of other things; naïve, unaware or just a bit of a d!CK.

              Could be just banter between teammates. I work with an English lad and we sometimes call him The Tan. He knows it's just banter. If Silva has other than banter in mind he deserves a slap on the wrist.

                Banter between mates in private is one thing, a professional footballer doing it on social media is another. Does Mendy's acceptance of the banter speak for the sentiments of the entire race?

                  I don't know the entire race but maybe some of them see it as banter. Ill-judged banter though it was. I think Pep's 4 or 5 language remark was an insult to most people's intelligence though I find him fairly insincere at the best of times.

                What Bernardo Silva did is not racist. I'm fed up of everyone being sensitive about literally any topic people love kicking an unnecessary fuss. If it's meant to be a joke, then take it as a joke. If he posted a look a like of Aguero with a white cartoon no one would be saying it's racist, so how is this any different?

                  Thats nonsense.and the snowflake argument is so tiresome. If it was a racist characture of a South American person then they would, even if aguero found it funny.

                    depends what you say. If you say "I hate black people they just eat watermelon and fried chicken lol jk " then yes that's racist. Posting a lookalike to literally your best friend in the team who not even himself gets offended is cleary not racist. Enough now with the sensitivity its ridiculous. Nowadays anyone gets offended

                              I think you're missing the point. Regardless of whether it was banter, these guys are paid a fortune to perform at this level. As role models they fall under the scrutiny of the world's media and are expected to uphold a sense of decency - to avoid behaviour other people may find offensive. Silva should have known that image would cause hysteria in many circles, up to and including 'Kick it Out', but he posted it regardless. Evidently because he doesn't care.

                        so if hes racist it means he hates black people or feels superior to them right? How come Mendy is literally his best friend in the club?

                      Suarez claims he wasn't being racist either, when he said what he said to Evra. If he gets an eight match ban, Silva should have the same.

                  Kick it out (and myself) agree with you

                  “A Kick It Out statement added: "Racist stereotypes are never acceptable as 'banter', and we're shocked that someone who is a role model to millions has failed to understand the discriminatory nature of his post.”

                    This is it. Banter, like what people find acceptable or unacceptable has no defineable mass boundary within the realms of the law. Everyone has a different line.

                Exactly. The intent is what should matter. In most cases it's only racist whenever its blatantly obvious that it's racist i.e. Lukaku racisim in Serie A.

                    If I tweeted some of the jokes my variegated mates and I share, I'd be kicked off Twitter at once. And I'm fine with that. Twitter is a global medium, while we and our mates banter in a bubble. Looking outward doesn't have to be PC, it can simply be respectful.

              Though one. At the moment A looks very tasty (only if Mad's injury is for 1 gameweek and you have someone else to slot in), however, more long-term I would say B. Given that it is your WC, I would do B
