Scout Notes

A rare off-day for Calvert-Lewin but Everton defence in poor form for Liverpool test

Chelsea 4-0 Everton

  • Goals: Mason Mount (£6.1m), Pedro (£6.8m), Willian (£6.9m), Olivier Giroud (£6.5m)
  • Assists: Pedro, Ross Barkley (£5.6m) x2, Willian
  • Bonus: Barkley x3, Willian x2, Pedro x1

For the value that they have provided Fantasy managers this season, we can forgive Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£6.4m) and Richarlison (£8.3m) for their blanks at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Apart from a glorious one-on-one opportunity that Calvert-Lewin screwed wide after 25 minutes, Everton never really looked like scoring in west London.

The Toffees had a miserable three efforts on goal all afternoon, with only one of them, an ambitious Richarlison attempt from distance, forcing returning goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga (£5.4m) into action.

The strangely subdued visitors were quite simply second-best for the majority of the game, with Chelsea looking the hungrier and sharper on and off the ball and fully meriting the margin of victory.

As proven at Vicarage Road in Gameweek 28, even a juggernaut like Liverpool can have an off-day, and there will no doubt be a reaction from Carlo Ancelotti’s troops in the Merseyside derby next Monday.

However, there are legitimate concerns about Everton’s defence even when they are at their competitive best at the other end of the pitch.

Since Ancelotti took charge, only three teams have conceded more Premier League goals than the Toffees (17) and kept fewer clean sheets (two).

Granted, most of the goal concessions have been on the road and Everton enjoy home advantage against their cross-city rivals in Gameweek 30.

But Ancelotti’s side haven’t recorded a shut-out home or away in two months and have shipped an average of two goals per match since then.

The Italian’s preference for a 4-4-2 does occasionally leave Everton looking exposed in the middle of the park, particularly when they are currently without a true anchor in the Idrissa Gueye mould, and they completely lost the midfield battle at Chelsea on Sunday.

With the influential Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) expected back for the Merseyside derby, that could well be a key battleground at Goodison Park.

Right-back is also a problem position at the moment, especially with Seamus Coleman (£5.3m) out.

Djibril Sidibe‘s (£5.1m) attacking attributes have attracted a fair bit of Fantasy interest this season but he looks less comfortable going the other way and he had a truly dreadful game on Sunday, with Pedro (£6.8m) having a whale of a time down the Chelsea left.

Since Ancelotti took charge, only Bournemouth have allowed more chances from their right flank than the Toffees. That’s something that Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) and co may find to their advantage in Gameweek 30 but it wouldn’t be a huge shock if the Everton boss was making other arrangements after Sidibe’s horror show, perhaps by shifting Mason Holgate (£4.4m) out to right-back or by deploying an extra centre-half.

Ancelotti said after full-time:

It’s very disappointing. This is the first time I was so sad for the performance of the team. Everything was wrong. We were not good defensively, lost a lot of duels, were not compact and did a lot of mistakes.

Mason Mount (£6.1m) had already gone close to scoring before he found the back of the net, with Jordan Pickford (£5.3m) denying the England midfielder from ten yards early on after a superb pick out from Willian (£6.9m).

There were to be no heroics from Pickford soon after, however, with Mount turning and firing past the Everton goalkeeper after fine work from Pedro.

The Spaniard then got on the scoresheet himself, collecting Ross Barkley‘s (£5.6m) pass and sprinting clear of the visitors’ backline to double Chelsea’s lead.

Willian and Oliver Giroud (£6.5m) both went close in the first half before the Brazilian effectively killed the game after 50 minutes, arrowing a 25-yard effort beyond Pickford after being teed up by the busy Barkley.

Willian then turned provider for Chelsea’s final goal, sending over the cross that Giroud poked in from close range.

Further chances came and went but the introductions of teenagers Faustino Anjorin and Armando Broja (both £4.5m) late on, plus the experimental deployment of substitute Reece James (£5.0m) in midfield, was a clear indication that the game had ceased to become a contest long before full-time.

Chelsea enjoy some excellent fixtures before and after Blank Gameweek 31 and their two most-recent displays against Liverpool and Everton in cup and league have certainly caught the eye.

How best to tap into their attack is a big dilemma, however.

Pedro, Willian and Barkley all excelled in delivering double-digit hauls but Chelsea’s midfield is bloated and we still have N’Golo Kante (£5.0m), Mateo Kovacic (£5.3m), Jorginho (£4.9m), Christian Pulisic (£6.9m), Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m) and Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£6.3m) to return in the not-so-distant future, to add to the competition for places.

Billy Gilmour‘s (£4.5m) fine display in the holding midfield role on Sunday will also give his manager a welcome headache.

Speaking after the match, Frank Lampard said:

You will always need your squad through the year. We have a lot of injuries but the only way to tackle that is to work and fight and play at a high intensity with energy and to trust in each other.

Kepa has been out of the team and showed character and he has come in for two clean sheets and made saves, and had a brave moment at the end of this game. Ross Barkley and Marcos Alonso have come back in and that is what we need.

It does not matter if you are four months from the end of your contract or out the team for a month, you have to train every day full pelt, be a brilliant teammate and when you come in you have to try to contribute.

Giroud would seem to have the upper hand in attack, meanwhile, although Tammy Abraham (£7.5m) is expected back towards the end of March.

The Chelsea boss said of the France international after full-time:

We had Olly playing well. He is selfless and then you must have runners and energy around him to make the most of it. And stick balls in the box like we did for his goal. He is a personality and we need that.

One of the more secure starters in Lampard’s starting XI, Mount, was withdrawn shortly before the hour-mark on Sunday and appeared to be feeling his hamstring before heading straight down the tunnel after his substitution.

James’ benching was a reminder that we’re never truly sure about which defenders Lampard will pick on a week-to-week basis, although the versatile Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m) did start his 15th league match in a row.

There was also another run-out for Marcos Alonso (£6.1m) but, in a back four rather than a wing-back system, he wasn’t quite the attacking menace he had been in previous weeks.


Chelsea XI (4-3-3): Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Zouma, Alonso; Barkley, Gilmour, Mount (James 60′); Willian (Anjorin 71′), Giroud (Broja 86′), Pedro.

Everton XI (4-4-2): Pickford; Sidibe, Keane, Holgate, Digne; Bernard (Walcott 46′), Gomes, Davies (Kean 58′), Sigurdsson; Calvert-Lewin (Gordon 76′), Richarlison.

      Is there a website that calculates average VC and bench points if someone does not play?

      Would like to know the impact of a KDB rest vs Arsenal....

      Barnes my 2nd highest score all season, bettered only by Sterling gwk 1, some lad.

    • Visionaries
      • 7 Years

      Tempted to WC from this;
      Pope
      TAA, Rico, Lund, Saiss, Soy
      Salah, Barnes, KDB Traore, Saka
      Auba, Jim, Ings

      to this,

      Alonso, TAA, Saiss, (Cathcart, Hanley)
      Salah, Mane, De Bruyne, Barnes, Dacoure
      Jota, Jim, (Greenwood)

      Gives me 9 gw31 players. Saving BB and FH for doubles

        Ings to deeney (jota if you are moving Traoré )
        Get Pope in for McCarthy to have a keeper for GW31 blanks

        All for GW31 to cover your free hit
        Don’t like the moves to much but you want to field a team I guess

    • ItOnlyTook9Years
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 19 days ago

      Was gonna give Kev the armband in 30, but sounds like a bad idea now.
      Who is the best captain for gw30? (In general, not just your players)

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Probably a Liverpool player. Mane for me probably.

      2. The Train Driver
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Bruno/Antonio/Giroud

      3. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Willian or Fernandes - theyre playing the worst defences in the league

      4. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Jimenez

      5. No Professionals
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Mane

      6. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Mané

      7. Plant Based FPLer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Who do you think is the best captain and why?

      8. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Aubameyang 😉

      9. Young Lingard
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        I’m just going to go Trent ..
        I don’t own the really good attacking Everton talent but I do own double Liverpool defence
        If they tighten up and the usual happens at Goodison a big swing for me . If I fail which is likely due to Liverpool’s defensive form

    • Hitmonlee
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 19 days ago

      May go Barkley (c) this week

      F**k it.

      Logic never seems to pay off so may as well be casual and get a green arrow

      1. Meinhoff
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Having Barkley is casual enough imo

    • JJeyy
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 19 days ago

      A) Free Hit 31

      B) Go into 31 with 8 player -4 and use free hit 32

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        I’ve got 7 for GW31 at the moment but a couple of iffy ones. 9 should be enough but I can see the appeal of a FH if it means keeping the players you’d bench in 31 but have money tied up in.

      2. No Professionals
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        B)

        That gw31 looks so low scoring to me, can't see that 11 player teams will drastically outscore 8 player teams.

      3. TeddiPonza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        A

      4. GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Wondering same. Prob Vardy for Ings in GW30 then 2 FT for 8 in GW31 or 9 for a hit.

      5. Stimps
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        A free hit in a double game week though, sounds so much better! Go B

    • PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 19 days ago

      This game is infuriating, isn’t it? I’ve been on here a couple of years. Last season was the first time I’d studied the game properly and after years of playing as a ‘casual’, I was chuffed with a 50k-ish finish. Now I’m 23k and furious to have dropped out of the top 10k with three successive red arrows. I’ve got my WC, FH and BB but perception is a strange thing. Trying to dust myself off and hopefully start over after 31...

      1. The Train Driver
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        This season has been very strange, one reason the introduction of VAR which has not worked out for me at all. However, some have gained a lot from those decisions...

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 19 days ago

          Found myself on the wrong end of big VAR swings with my ML rivals. Sterling disallowed goal earlier this season, Auba penalty retake, Vardy pens... all sorts!

      2. Bobby
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Yes this sounds like you've had an awful couple of seasons...

        1. PascalCygan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 19 days ago

          As I say, it’s perception, isn’t it? You get to a position you’re happy with, speak to people on here who are doing really well and you get a bit greedy! Then a position you’d usually be happy with seems like a missed opportunity...

      3. Nerdlinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        It sure is. Went 7 seasons no lower than 150k including top 10k and 18th overall. Last season 500k, this season 900k. Obviously a few bad choices but some of my informed and intuitive punts have just not worked at all lately and some bad luck with injuries etc.. what can you do? Hand in there!

          Thanks! It’s been a mad season, so volatile. Let’s hope we can ride the waves of change from now until the end of the season.

            Harvey Barnes on a 19pointer and Vardy with 2 goals in a night is a start!

              Nice one! I’d had Vardy since GW1 but sold him this week so those goals tonight were particularly painful!

          True. And I’m learning this season not to judge my decisions on the outcome but on the process behind making the decisions. This game tests your rationality!

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 19 days ago

        Just done Perez to Barkley. Didn't think I'd go there but he's looking confident.

        Leaves exact funds to get Mané back in for Sterling, potentially.

                • 14 Years
                4 years, 19 days ago

                I prefer the potential of Willian, but this is my 5th mid for a future bench boost. 5.6m on Barkley seems reasonable.

          2. fr3d
            • 6 Years

            Neither is Willian

            He has all the ability in the world, but his decision making can be lacking. His spot to lose at the moment.

        If that hit for a GK, I wouldn't even bother to field 11.

      Auba and Saka/Pepe owe us big time. We ditched Vardy and Barnes for them against Villa, VILLA for Goodness sake!

        It looked fine at half time 🙂

        1. Plant Based FPLer
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 19 days ago

          Did it though? Were you watching? It felt good even having Vardy on the bench thinking he'd get twenty minutes.

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 19 days ago

            I thought so. Watched the first half and thought it was a fairly even contest. Leicester really lacked confidence going forward, but settled down after scoring the first goal.

            1. Plant Based FPLer
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 19 days ago

              Hm. Well I'm doubting myself now but I had thought Villa never looked like scoring, Leicester had all the possession and Leicester kept raining in the shots, not good ones but enough for optimism if Vardy comes on. Maybe they were mainlyl after the goal from 40 to 45 minutes.

              You had Barnes though! What was your reason for getting him?

    • elchilangles

      got Barnes 1st sub, what are the chances of De Bruyne not playing against Arsenal??????

        I've got a feeling you're going to get lucky.

            Well unsure on Willian now, 2 start in last 5 , why is he not starting?

            1. Twisted Saltergater
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 19 days ago

              Contract up at the end of the season and not signing an offer on the table, allegedly.

              1. Dynamic Duos
                • 10 Years
                4 years, 19 days ago

                So he is a no go then ?

            2. Slitherene
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 19 days ago

              There was some contract extension talk holdup. I'm sure he'll start more often given his last performance.

          3. Don Kloppeone

            Oh Harvey Barnes, the pipes, the pipes are playing!

            68pts with Auba (C) and KDB likely no show to go and 103k > 64k pre autosubs.

            Sorry to those who have had a bad week but I’ve been needing this good week for a long time!!

              Nice , who is your autosub for KDB, he will get minutes though I think

              65pts with Sterling(c), Aubameyang and Mahrez.

              Trying not to think what my score would be if I hadn't sold Mané and Vardy 🙂 But love a DGW.

                Awesome! Those MCI assets could make this week dreamland for you!

                I sold Vardy this week also. Oh well!

                  I was almost in dreamland when Mahrez crossed for Sterling vs United, but Sterling did a Sterling! Hope he shows some trace of form vs Arsenal or he's gone for Mané.

                    He’s definitely been a shadow of his former self for a while! I wouldn’t have had the balls to bring him in!
