Ziyech the catalyst as Chelsea FPL assets appeal in defence and attack

Burnley 0-3 Chelsea

  • Goals: Hakim Ziyech (£7.9m), Kurt Zouma (£5.1m), Timo Werner (£9.3m)
  • Assists: Tammy Abraham (£7.2m), Mason Mount (£6.8m), Ziyech
  • Bonus points: Ziyech x3, Zouma x2, Werner x1

THE ZIYECH FACTOR

Hakim Ziyech‘s (£7.9m) first Premier League start for Chelsea appears to have helped them finally unlock top gear this season.

The Moroccan playmaker has been conspicuous by his absence thus far, with the Blues labouring to their results far too often for those invested in their attackers.

At Burnley, Chelsea were a transformed outfit with Ziyech on the right-hand side of the front-three, hinting that they can do some damage in upcoming meetings with Sheffield United and Newcastle.

“We’re really impressed and really excited (with Ziyech). His work rate off the ball, which someone might not expect of a winger with technical ability, we saw today. Compared to what we had last season, he offers something different.” – Frank Lampard

Taking Wednesday’s 4-0 win at Krasnodar, the former Ajax man already has three attacking returns in his first two starts for Chelsea, netting in Russia and getting a goal and assist against Burnley.

Frank Lampard is still managing Ziyech’s minutes following an early-season injury, Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.8m) coming on in the 73rd minute, but even at this early stage, he could prove a simple solution to frustrated Christian Pulisic (£8.4m) owners.

CHRISTIAN SOLDIER

The 4.2% invested in Pulisic proved to be exceptionally unfortunate in Gameweek 7 as he sustained an injury in the warm-up at Burnley.

The American international was set to make a third consecutive Premier League start since returning from a previous issue, but now faces weeks on the sidelines again.

“He felt a little feeling in his hamstring. We tried to manage him in the week. We’ll have to see how he’s doing in the next 24 hours. Hopefully short-term, we’re talking weeks. It’s a minor feeling that he had.” – Frank Lampard

That stroke of misfortune for Pulisic was exactly the opposite for owners of Timo Werner (£9.3m), who still sits in 20.7% of teams worldwide.

He had been handed a first Premier League benching at Burnley but came into the side to occupy Pulisic’s left-sided position in the front-three.

That led to the German international’s third Premier League goal of the season and sets him up for a potentially profitable meeting with Sheffield United in Gameweek 8.

As we highlighted in our analysis of Manchester City’s latest win, the Blades have given up more chances on their right-hand side than any other this season. Accordingly, João Cancelo (£5.4m) was afforded the freedom of Bramall Lane in Gameweek 6 occupying a similar on-field position to what Werner could next Saturday. And, even if the former RB Leipzig man is chosen to lead the line ahead of Abraham, we know tends to drift in that direction, anyway.

ON THE MENDY

Keeping a clean sheet in their 3-0 win at Turf Moor, Chelsea’s defence is quickly becoming a key source of investment – especially when we consider how rare shut-outs seem to be for big-six clubs right now.

Naturally, the signing of Edouard Mendy (£5.0m) has had a significant impact in this area, as has Thiago Silva (£5.5m) bedding himself into the team.

In the three Premier League matches that they have started together, they have kept a clean sheet in each one.

And, most importantly, the underlying statistics from those games have also been encouraging in terms of sustainability. Chelsea have conceded just one big chance in the matches that Mendy and Silva started together, compared to giving up eight in the four that they did not.

With Sheffield United boasting the second-worst goal conversion rate in the Premier League this season, another clean sheet seems likely in Gameweek 8, while no team has registered fewer shots than their Gameweek 9 opponent Newcastle.

ZOUM CALL

While Silva and Mendy have arguably had the biggest impact on Chelsea’s defence, Ben Chilwell (£5.9m) and Kurt Zouma (£5.1m) remain the key assets to consider when looking to capitalise on it.

Left-back Chilwell was the people’s choice for Gameweek 7, earning more transfers in than any other player but it was Zouma who left Turf Moor with the bigger score (14), thanks to his second-half goal and two bonus points.

Perhaps we should not be too surprised at the centre-back’s third goal of the season considering that, between Gameweeks 1 and 6, Werner and Abraham were the only Chelsea players with more shots in the box and the German was the only one of Zouma’s colleagues with more efforts on target too.

The prospects of both Chilwell and Zouma look especially good for the next two matches.

We have already highlighted that Werner will face Sheffield United’s weak right-flank in Gameweek 7, which Chilwell will also have the privilege of lining up against too.

However, Zouma can offer decent match-ups in both of the next two outings. Considering his continued threat from set pieces, he might fancy attacking returns against a Sheffield United side that has given up more headed efforts than any other this season while Newcastle have conceded the most attempts from dead-ball situations in 2020/21.

Burnley XI (4-4-2): Pope; C Taylor, Tarkowski, K Long, Lowton; McNeil, D Stephens (Rodriguez 46′), Westwood, Brownhill; Wood, A Barnes (Brady 73′).

Chelsea XI (4-3-3): E Mendy; Chilwell, Zouma, T Silva, R James; Havertz (Jorginho 86′), Kanté, Mount; Werner, Abraham (Giroud 77′), Ziyech (Hudson-Odoi 73′).

    Ziyech is 8.0m now

    1. Ron_Swanson
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      And Zouma is £5.2m!

        Other than that Mrs Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?

    2. MikeBravo

      Now imagine if they both get injured in Europe...

  2. merin

    The pressing concerns here, imo, is Pulisic and Maupay. Who to get instead?

    Martinez Steer
    Chilwell Cresswell Lamptey KWP Mitchell
    Salah Son Pulisic Grealish Bissouma
    Kane DCL Maupay

    1 FT, 2.0 ITB

    1. mrelpea
      • 7 Years

      Ziyech for puli is no brainer and maybe Wilson for maupay?

      1. merin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers! Ziyech for Puli is done. Will be interesting to see both Maupay and Wilson today

        1. mrelpea
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I brought my WC forward by a week to make sure I could fit Ziyech in before he got to 8.1. Yep perfect audition for Wilson and Maupay today

  3. NATSTER
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    It doesn't yet help much on decision making between Chilwell and Zouma. Btw, we can expect to see more discussions on this over the week.

    1. mrelpea
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Id say chillwell is worth the extra for assists etc

    2. Ron_Swanson
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I think both are worth having esp for the next 2

    3. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I got both for this week.

  4. davies
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on this defence?

    James Lamptey Kilman Mitchell Dunne

    Allows an unbelievable front 6/7...

    1. mrelpea
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m going down a similarish route. Is kilman likely to keep his spot?

      1. davies
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Seems first choice LCB

        1. mrelpea
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Sweet! Cheers mate

    2. StayoutheSpiceZone
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      So it’s the same 3 at the back every week and no subs?

      1. davies
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Sneaky feeling Mitchell gets his place back but otherwise yes

        1. StayoutheSpiceZone
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Not for me then. You need to spend a tiny bit more for security imo

          1. davies
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            0.1 off James > Zouma

        2. Stockport Hatter
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          From PVA? No chance.

          1. davies
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            PVA pushed forward?

            No coincidence they lose when Mitchell doesn’t play imo

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Could be only playing 2 defenders when Azpi plays

      1. StayoutheSpiceZone
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Or 1 if Saiss rotates with Kilman?

      2. davies
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        See above re: Mitchell

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I’m not sure he plays over PVA

    4. mrelpea
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Sorry in answer to you your question, I agree with the tactic! I’d only worried about Mitchell’s playing time after he missed last game

    5. Third Eye Vision
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You’ve got constant worries in defence there. Not sure what your mini leagues are like, but most of the points gained so far this week in my leagues are by players with decent defenders.

    6. jtreble
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      One nailed; four not. GL.

    7. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Terrrible? James and Kilman are rotation risks. Mitchell might have lost his place (or will at some point - if not be a rotation risk) and Dunne has also lost his place.

    8. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Puke

    9. Hotdogs for Tea

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Not quite

      2. mrelpea
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Naaah, hold fire. He’s already increased in price to 8, so probably won’t hit 8.1 this GW and as tasty as the Sheffield fixture is on paper, Man City only managed to just beat them

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

          Just that I’m not so keen to get another 1 point cameo from Foden.

      Unfortunately decided to do JRod --> Pulisic with my FT last week.

      Is Pulisic --> Ziyech my move this week?

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

        Yes

      2. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years

        Quite possibly but hold out until Friday

      3. Hotdogs for Tea

        back to James Rod 😉

        Yes

      2. Third Eye Vision

        Nah. Just do Digne to Chilwell this week.

      3. John Nerdelbaum
        • 11 Years

        Jorginho wasn't in the Chelsea line up and Antonio is injured

    7. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Plenty of other options. Ayling/Dallas, Coufal and Balbuena a steal at 4.4, KWP is starting to look like a bargain (also Bednarek), Targett has attacking threat, and do I understand Branthwaite (3.9) might get a look in at Everton?

      1. The Ilfordian

    8. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Best captain vs WBA next GW:

      A) Kane
      B) Son

      Don’t think it is quite as simple as Son cause it’s away. Think West Brom have improved defensively and will sot deep which could make Kane the better option.

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Let's see how they do tonight but I think Kane, similar thinking as the point you mentioned.

      2. LewanGOALski
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Isn’t Son’s away record much better. Though I will be looking at them closely today

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yeah Son's current PPM away is 11 or something lol.

          Having said that I was thinking the same sort of thing earlier today. Feels like the type of opponent Kane scores hat-trick against.

        2. Flair
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Away record with such a tiny sample size is rubbish.

      3. Flair

        Kane, easy

      1. seewhyaxe

        Lamptey for once man.

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Don't mind him assisting Maupay or even Bissouma(autosub) 🙂

      2. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years

        I’ve got Bissouma coming in for Rodríguez but not expecting much.

      3. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        Rashford

      4. LewanGOALski
        • 12 Years

        Maupay points would be lovely - got him in GW5 and it was painful to watch him missing all those chances...

        Yes great moves

      2. John Nerdelbaum

        I like those moves

      3. mrelpea
        • 7 Years

        Absolutely!! Go for it

    11. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No international football left this year for Morocco makes Ziyech a more tempting option over Rodríguez who has two lore games for Colombia next week.

      1. OLDHERMAN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Also the fact he is twice the player Rodriguez is, and plays in three times the team where Rodriguez plays.

        1. Flair
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Twice the player Rodriguez is? Funniest joke I've heard in a while.

          1. OLDHERMAN
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            You're right mate, not twice. Three times is more close to reality.

          2. OLDHERMAN
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Anyhow, someone answered me on this forum. It's going to snow today, dress warmly.

      2. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        No Europe makes Rodriguez very tempting overall

    12. UnitednationsXI

      • 12 Years

      What do you suggest with 1FT and 0m itb.

      Martinez
      Taa Lamptey James* -- Mitchell* Saiss*.....*rotation prone
      Salah Son Havertz(SHU) Barnes(WOL) -- Burke
      DCL Kane Watkins

      1. lordkippe
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Would avoid the hit. But would use the transfer on Saiss > Zouma

    13. lordkippe
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Who do you think is the 3 weakest links in this team ? got 2FT and want to sort things out

      Martinez

      TAA - Chilwell - Reguillon

      Salah - Sterling - Son - Podence

      Jimenez - DCL - Mitrovic

      Button - Justin - Bissouma - Mitchell

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        TAA, Reguillon, Mitrovic and Jimi (maybe)

      2. MarcusAurelius
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Mitrovic only real weak link and you only need one of Podence/Jimenez.
        I’d be looking at getting Ziyech in for Podence and Bamford/Wilson for Mitrovic.

      Thoughts on Robertson ➡ Creswell and free up 2.0 milion?

      I’d have this back-line which I actually like:

      Martinez
      Chilwell - Zouma - Creswell (Ayling - Kilman)

        I think it is a good transfer.

        Looks good

      Anyone play sky fpl? Trying to work out if I put ings in for Jimenez.. I would get points for his game today? Joe was saying about ings 241 on the sky pod but I was unsure what he meant.

      English strikers are dominating FPL right now. If you weren’t allowed to use English strikers who would be your front three?

      Thinking Werner, Jimi, Maupay? One of Aguero, Cavani, Martial, Rodrigo, Firmino, Batshyaui, Ayew depending on form and fitness?

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

        Richarlison

      Like many others, I'm not doing too well. Is there anything obviously wrong or just unlucky?

        3 years, 4 months ago

        Not so much different among teams, I found for me it’s been down to subtle decisions: captaincy, have the players in wrong week, chasing points from previous week

        1. waltzingmatildas
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yeah Mané captain this week hurts. But I'm happy with my team so reluctant to wc

      What to do here folks? 1.2. ITB

      Ryan (Martinez)
      Chilwell Coufal Cancelo (Taylor Mitchell)
      Salah Son Zaha Grealish (Burke)
      Kane DCL Jimenez

      A. Burke > Soucek bench Jimenez
      B. Jimenez > Martial
      C. Jimenez > Werner
      D. Jimenez Burke > Rashford Brewster -4

        C

      2. lordkippe
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I would save FT. Jimenez next 2 looks alright

      3. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years

        I quite like C

      Trent, Semedo > Chilwell, Zouma? Would be for free

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Hmm semedo looked pretty good, but fixtures aren't great. Maybe just one of them?

      2. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Yes

      3. djoker_nole
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        get Dias/Zouma instead

    20. OLDHERMAN

      Hello mates.
      Easy question: 3 pts for a goal, 2 for an assist. No bonus system.
      Stuart Armstrong or Andros Townsend or Karlan Grant?
      Thanks in advance for an expert’s opinion.

    21. Chandler Bing
      • 7 Years

      Is Chelsea defense worth doubling up? Have they just been lucky not to concede or are they actually quite composed now?

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

        Seems like

      2. pitstop1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Don’t like their fixtures from GW10. Not worth doubling imo

      3. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Improved performance and fixtures

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Amazing what difference a competent goalkeeper makes

        Essentially that had great defensive stats in the kepa era just kepa let the goals in

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

        They kept CS against Burnley, Palace and United. Burnley has the worst attack in the league up to now. Palace too have looked pretty woeful offensively for the most part and United have been well... pretty mixed - and that was always going to be a cagey game. I wouldn't read anything too much about their defence much yet.

        1. Ha.
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          And Champions League?

    22. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Keep FT or maybe Robo to WH def?

      1FT and 1.6 ITB.

      Martinez
      Robo/Reguilon/Chilwell
      Salah/Son/Hamez/Grealish
      Kane/DCL/Bamford

      Martin/Kilman/Mitchell/Stephens

    23. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years

      Those going for double Chelsea defence? What will you do GW10 vs Spurs? Play both or play Chilwell and bench Zouma?

      1. Chandler Bing
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        If I do go double, I'd play them all the way until GW16.

    24. FPLMACKEM

      Best captains for the next two weeks?

      Gw8 son WBA A
      Gw9 Rashford WBA H

      Anyone thought ahead for this?

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Agree with Son

        Chelsea or Everton assets in GW9 also on the cards

      Is Haverz > Ziyech far too sideways or worth it?

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

        Would do it for free

      2. Dacra
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'd save the transfer for int break.

    26. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Caught out by the Ziyech price rise last night. He was on +70% only a few hours before changes.

    27. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'd love to have Zouma as SHU & NEW aren't statistically good in the air at the moment, but still have hold of Reece James. Let's hope he's the one whipping crosses in...
