Fernandes climbs above Salah in FPL points table as Cavani edges closer to start

Southampton 2-3 Manchester United

  • Goals: Jan Bednarek (£4.5m), James Ward-Prowse (£6.0m) | Bruno Fernandes (£10.8m), Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) x2
  • Assists: Ward-Prowse, Moussa Djenepo (£5.4m) | Cavani, Fernandes, Marcus Rashford (£9.5m)
  • Bonus: Cavani x3, Ward-Prowse x2, Bednarek x1

A stunning second-half comeback won Manchester United the points at Southampton as Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) announced himself as a Fantasy prospect in spectacular style.

The Uruguayan veteran scored two goals and set up another after replacing the ineffectual Mason Greenwood (£7.1m) at half-time.

Other than that, it was Fantasy Premier League (FPL) business as usual at St Mary’s, with more set-piece joy for Saints midfielder James Ward-Prowse (£6.0m) and yet another away day haul from Bruno Fernandes (£10.8m).

Saints Alive – For Half A Game

Southampton led 2-0 at the interval as Ward-Prowse continued his blistering recent form with a fourth goal and second assist since Gameweek 6.

Two bonus points meant it was also a third double-digit score in those five starts and the England international is currently in the top ten FPL midfielders – and the cheapest to make that list.

His goal against United, from a free-kick, shortened David de Gea‘s (£5.4m) involvement in the match as the keeper collided with the post in trying to keep out Ward-Prowse’s pin-point effort.

Red Devils manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wasn’t overly concerned about the Spaniard post-match, probably helped by the fact that Dean Henderson (£5.3m) is an excellent understudy:

A knock just above the knee, so hopefully he’ll be okay for Wednesday, but we don’t know. Let’s have a little scan or check tomorrow, but Dean came on and looked very assured.

The other keeper in action at St Mary’s, Alex McCarthy (£4.6m), was even more assured, producing fine saves to deny Greenwood, Fernandes and Marcus Rashford (£9.5m).

His 20.5% ownership did not enjoy a fourth straight home clean sheet, however, as United turned things round after the break.

Change Is Good

Solskjaer often gives the impression that he’s a conservative manager, but he made some big calls both before and during Sunday’s game.

He handed starts to Greenwood and Donny van de Beek (£6.7m) and the latter again impressed in the balanced role that caught the eye in the Champions League last week.

That role – a mix of defensive shield and midfield conduit – allows Fernandes further attacking freedom, which does dampen the Dutchman’s Fantasy appeal.

The same cannot be said of Cavani. 

Two goals and an assist from 45 stellar minutes positively oozes FPL potential as Solskjaer’s decision to bring the striker on at half-time changed the game.

Small surprise, then, that the United manager was glowing in his praise for the striker:

On the training pitch, in the dressing room and during meal times, how meticulous he is. He is one of the best because of his experience and qualities, that movement. He is one of the best movers you can see. He can peel off the shoulder, he can get in front of you, he can pin you. He wants to be in between the two posts, which I love.

A Foil For Fernandes?

Despite all that love, Solskjaer preferred to start Greenwood ahead of Cavani because the youngster ‘needed the minutes’. And there is also the matter of Anthony Martial (£8.7m), who missed the match through illness.

But United’s almost unhealthy reliance on Fernandes – he’s been involved in 11 of the team’s 16 league goals this season – underlines just how important Cavani could become.

In just 127 minutes of action, he now has more goals (three) than Rashford (two) and Martial (zero) have managed from 1,175 minutes of collective toil up front.

This season’s crazy schedule will demand rotation – particularly around Christmas – but Cavani is beginning to look like a starter, not an impact sub.

If he can take some of the strain off Fernandes, who made it three straight double-digit returns and a fourth consecutive haul on the road, both could flourish.

Whether the pair can combine so well at Old Trafford against far deeper-lying teams than Southampton will be the key, however.

Fixtures Over Form

One thing in the pair’s favour could be United’s short-term schedule.

They’re back on their beloved road, at West Ham, in Gameweek 11 and will also travel to Sheffield United before Christmas.

And their wretched home form – just one win from five attempts – might actually be helped by the arrival of Manchester City and Leeds over the next four Gameweeks as neither side is likely to sit back and frustrate Solskjaer’s side.

Ings Can Maybe Get Better

Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl spoke ahead of Gameweek 10 about Danny Ings (£8.3m) maybe being available for the Brighton trip and that could prove to be a nice tonic for his troops:

We had gone seven games unbeaten before now, it’s a good run. And now we’ll need to start another run.

Southampton’s schedule offers little prospect of that, with decent fixtures – Brighton and Sheffield United next and a trip to Fulham – offset by tough home matches with Man City and Liverpool.

Ings would certainly boost the side’s attacking threat, while their defenders are relatively cheap and two, Kyle Walker-Peters (£4.6m and 12.1%) and Jannik Vestergaard (£4.7m and 10.1%), are well-owned.

But their backline is a curious beast this season. 

The four clean sheets they’ve kept the second-best record in the league and yet they’ve conceded at least three goals in four separate matches.


Southampton XI (4-4-2): McCarthy; Walker-Peters (N’Lundulu 90+4), Vestergaard, Bednarek, Bertrand; Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Armstrong (Diallo 90), Djenepo (Long 72); Walcott, Adams. 

Manchester United XI (4-3-1-2): De Gea (Henderson 45); Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles (Williams 84); Fred, McTominay, van de Beek; Fernandes; Rashford, Greenwood (Cavani 45).

        Check the news.

        Used a term on social media that could be deemed as racist. The same word Suarez called evra.

    2. gonzalocampos
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      We used that term in South America in 2 ways;

      1) As an offensive when is used along bad words
      2) As an affection / care / joke between close friends of different races

      Cavani used it as #2, giving thanks to a friend. Suarez for example used it as #1 (disrespect).

      Get the difference?

        I understand the difference, but we’re not in Uruguay.

        If he doesn’t get banned it opens up a massive can of worms.

    No pool attacker is obvious issue, but can only get salah if take our fernandes or Kane for a hit (they have nice fixtures) or jota for Grealish (great fixture).

    Feels like a hold barring injuries?

    1. jomikijiq

      I'd get Salah with 2FT in GW12

        That’s my thinking

      Jota for Foden

      1. No Professionals

        no spare cash or i would be doing that.

  3. Plant Based FPLer

    Keep Martial, Pogba and de Gea out of the lineup and United will do well. Let 'em sit in "time out" and sulk while the rest get something done.

      It is the same as yooohooo in some cultures. For example, say Souchef scores a hattie, I would yell 'Juuuhuuuuuu' all night long.

      A bad case scenario sees each with 2pts, getting you to 59, which I think is an average score. You want at least one to deliver to get you over the psychological divide that is 60pts. Good luck.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        Great point. My basic target is 60 pts net every GW, but I think this year we should target more, 60 is leading me nowhere...

      Is it that much easier login onto FFS and asking people if they think your score is good, than just checking to see if you have a green arrow? or maybe have a look at the average score? Nice not so humble brag.

      BTW I have 95 with Grealish Watkins Barkley Bowen Creswell Vardy(C) and Maddison to play, how am I looking?

      Not this week

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years

        I'm thinking long term.

    2. fr3d
      • 6 Years

      Bruno, Salah, KDB, Kane, Son... The headaches this year are real

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

      Probably not. Captaincy a major factor.

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

        *Maybe

    4. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Not if there is no injury or illness. I'll ditch Rashford and Barkley for KdB.

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No.

  12. tc93
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best defender from gw11 onwards for 5.8m or less? Already have Chilwell, Dias, Kilman and KWP..

    I’m currently thinking going double Chelsea with either James or Zouma. But open to other suggestions.

    1. jomikijiq
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Dallas is good

    2. Babelcopter
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Reece

  13. Tshelby
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Any obvious moves here?

    2FT's 0.2 itb

    Martinez
    kilman, Coufal, Chilwell, Cancelo, KWP
    Ziyech, KdB, Grealish, Bruno, Soucek
    DCL, Watkins, Vardy

    1. jomikijiq
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I have a very similar team

      Thinking of
      GW11: Kilman -> Dallas
      GW12: Ziyech & Vardy -> Salah & Bamford/Wilson

          The other Grand Masters aren't that good in fpl, I remember Magnus saying that in an interview.

    2. Baps hunter

  15. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    1FT.

    Would you do Son + Kane -> KDB and Wilson (-4)?

    Martinez
    Coufal Chilwell Kilman
    Grealish Son Bruno Salah
    Bamford Kane DCL

    Steer Dallas Bissouma Lamptey

    1. Don Corleone
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      London derby awaits and to sell both Son and Kane for a hit. Seems risky.

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Want to get KDB for Fulham. Think Salah -> KDB best move as I have zero City players?

        1. Don Corleone
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          KDB seems like priority, I agree. But not at the expense of Salah.

          I'm looking at releasing Grealish. Without Barkley, he'll have more responsibilities in the team and less time to bomb forward. Although I have Watkins too...so it's a tad bit easier for me.

          I'm looking at Grealish + Kane -> KDB and Wilson for free.

          1. Botman and Robben
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Not bad at all. But Grealish could still bang.

    2. Dazzler83
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Wilson might have Covid

      1. Don Corleone
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I know. Bamford is also an option. Waiting for more news.

  16. Don Corleone
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I can have midfield of KDB, Bruno, Salah, Son if I decide to go Vardyless and/or Kaneless. And it's for free, too. Front three would be something like DCL + 2 out of Wilson/Watkins/Bamford.

    Would you do it?

    Appreciate any thoughts.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Very tempting, and I know Vardy won’t play Fulham every week but if he bangs tonight, you’ll be in a tough situation.

      1. Don Corleone
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah..after all these years playing FPL, only once happened that midfield consisting of only big hitters worked. And it was the time of Ronaldo, Lamps, Gerrard...

        Vardy is always tempting when playing against bottom clubs.

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

      • 7 Years

      I am going with this starting GW 12:

      Salah KDB Bruno Son Podence
      Vardy Bamford

      1. Don Corleone
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

    4. Hotdogs for Tea

      yip - the ideal setup really

      KDB, Son, Bruno, Salah, 4.5
      DCL, Bamford/Watkins, Antonio/Wilson

  17. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    On 59 with Vardy (c) and Watkins to go. Could be a really big week. Fingers crossed as I’m on a bit of a run now. Was 4.2m 4 weeks ago and am now 1.7m. One last push please Vardy.

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You will have a splendid week.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Grealish staying quiet is also important for you

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yes quite important but the most important thing for me is Vardy does well.

      Thanks mate. Was looking for something like this.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yes, they have two new covid cases now. Not certain if that alone is reason to cancel the match. May also depend on whether they infected CP players.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        That we know of. Let’s see what comes out today.

      2. Flair

        3 years, 3 months ago

        Match unlikely to be cancelled, they'll play U23 players if they need to. I'm more interested in how much this improves Villas prospects.

          As long as they can field a 14 man squad they will play. That includes any players who have played a second of senior football at any time in the past.

    Or could do the above without the goalkeeper transfer but for Armstrong or Neto.

    Dias or Reece James?( Have Chilwell)

  24. ShaunGoater123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Any suggestions for what to do here? Desperate to get in de Bruyne but can’t see a big hitter I want to lose...

    McCarthy
    Bellerin / chilwell / Justin
    Mane / Fernandes / ziyech / soucek
    Kane / Vardy / Watkins

    Button / Dallas / Mitchell / bissouma

    2fts 1m itb

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

      Mane

      Or do something with Bellerin and Ziyech

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Bellerin and ziyech definitely on the chopping block. Unfortunately can’t get in kdb with just changing those two

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No, not if you dont want to lose a 'big' player

    3. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      The point this season is you are going to have to move the premiums in and out. Can’t just set and forget them

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah fair point.

        Still have wildcard too so maybe I pick one to move in and then reshape for next week with wildcard maybe

      Yep, nice team. Any plan for Salah vs Fulham?

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Got two options in gw12

        Vardy, Son, Regu -> Bamford, Salah, 4.5

        Vardy & Bruno -> Bamford & Salah

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          All good. Good luck with it

      Nice, save

  26. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    This season is going to be all about managing the rotation in and out of our teams of the premiums isn’t it...

    1FT 2.2 ITB. Easy save FT?

    Martinez
    Robertson, Lamptey, Chilwell
    Fernandes, KDB, Son, Grealish
    DCL, Bamford, Wilson
    4.0 | KWP, Bissouma, Mitchell

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

      Yeah looks good

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks - the fun begins in GW12.

        Fernandes -> Salah or Robertson & Son -> Salah or something crazy where I lose Robertson and Grealish and weaken my defence to the bare bones.

        Slightly regretting not having a bit better team value now

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

      Yeah. Set and forget the defense + mid priced options and start targeting captaincy hauls by switching around premiums.

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Ye that’s what I’m working towards. I’ve set the strikers now. Just need to decide on Robertson or not long term (impacts budget) and then yes rotate premiums for captaincy

        It’s going to be a volatile season!

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

          Yeah, my defense looks set - Dias, James, Chilwell. Robertson tempts but Liverpool's displays don't. The sooner Antonio becomes fit the better, he's the perfect set and forget forward.

          1. TheDragon
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Lovely defence

            Part of me thinks I should move to similar

  27. henkongs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Martinez (mcarthy)
    Justin - Chilwell - Konsa (KWP-Dunne)
    Grealish - Salah - Jota - Fernandes - (Foden)
    Wilson - Kane - DCL

    Would you go Kane -> Vardy? or is another transfer better?

    have 1.1 ITB and one transfer available

  28. Indio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Any better move for team below than Ziyech > KDB?

    Can't work out how to bring in Salah also, so might need to be a KDB > Salah shuffle if I want Mo for GW12.

    Martinez
    Cancelo, KWP, Chilwell
    Bruno, Jota, Grealish, Ziyech, Son
    Vardy, DCL
    (Forster, Coufal, Brewster, Mitchell)
    1FT; £4.4 itb.

    Assuming Sterling plays 60+ midweek...

    Do you think he starts Fulham?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Noone knows it’s a lottery

      I personally think he will start vs Fulham but 12m for a player who is a rotation risk is too much for me

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

      Yes.

  30. LewanGOALski
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    to get KDB, who’d you drop:

    A) Hamez
    B) Ziyech
    C) keep both & save FT
    ..?

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Either could go for me,

      Prob James then Ziyech
