Fantasy focus switches to Jiménez as Brighton host Wolves

The Fantasy Premier League focus switches to Raúl Jiménez (£7.6m) in Sunday’s final match.

The Wolves forward was the most-sold player for Gameweek 16, losing 220,000+ owners ahead of today’s trip to Brighton.

That was despite recording seven attacking returns in his last eight Premier League outings.

Naturally, he starts once again for Nuno Espirito Santo’s men, flanked in the 3-4-3 system by Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Adama Traoré (£5.2m).

Meanwhile, Aaron Connolly (£4.7m) is absent for Brighton today, having picked up a knock midweek.

“He just had a knock, a bit like a dead leg. He’s had a few games as well this game just came around too quickly for him.” – Graham Potter

Leandro Trossard (£5.8m) comes into the side, while Aaron Mooy (£4.8m) and Pascal Groß (£6.4m) are also in the starting line-up.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Alzate; Pröpper, D Stephens; Trossard, Mooy, Groß; Maupay.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; D Jota, Jiménez, Traoré.

    Lundstram's last 5 games

    I posted a couple of gameweeks ago that the argument "never bench lundstram" isn't a good tactic.

    Does anyone still think he's unbenchable?

      Yes. Because he is still attacking. He won't get attacking returns every week, but you don't know when he is going to get them so you can't bench him.

        The idea is that you play players you think will score as many weeks as possible when you own them.

        Holding someone who isn't scoring on the hope they eventually will is a waste of a player.

        It's what Sterling owners are doing still

            Completely ignoring KDBs 10 assists to lundstram's 2

            I'm not saying never play Lundstrum as when Sheffield are playing a week team he's a definite pick, but the idea he should never be benched just shows a bad bench to me

      Eye test shows that Lundstram was unlucky to get an attacking return that being said never bench Lundstram coz he only needs one good gameweek and it better not be on your bench as third choice sub

        Thinking of dropping Kdb/Mane to alli,after that mcginn to any cheap mid,so that i can fund tammy to kane.is that a move considering.
        My Current Team
        Ryan
        Kelly Lund Soyuncu
        Son Kdb Maddi Mane
        Tammy Vardy Rashford
        Bench : Boldock ,Tomori,Mcginn
        Bank: 0.5m
        Transfer done Pulisic to Maddison

        Reasons: 1) i feel less premium mids are getting more points than kdb
        2) removing mane becoz upcoming fixtures looks tough and could be rotation,in order to climb up,i feel mane is the obvious choice for everyone.

        Any other suggestion is welcome.
