Palace fixture swing lessens Zaha’s appeal as Baggies’ GW12 match put in doubt

WEST BROMWICH ALBION 1-5 CRYSTAL PALACE

  • Goals: Conor Gallagher (£5.5m)| Darnell Furlong (£4.5m) own goal, Wilfried Zaha (£7.3m) x2, Christian Benteke (£5.5m) x2
  • Assists: Furlong| Zaha, James McArthur (£5.3m), Patrick van Aanholt (£5.4m), Eberechi Eze (£5.8m), Nathaniel Clyne (£4.5m)
  • Bonus: Zaha x3, Benteke x3, Eze x1, Gallagher x1
  • Red cards: Matheus Pereira (£5.7m)

The return of Crystal Palace’s talisman and a first-half red card for West Bromwich’s own arch-creator shaped Sunday’s game at the Hawthorns.

Wilfried Zaha (£7.3m) secured his third double-digit haul of the season – all of which have come away from home – in the Eagles’ 5-1 demolition of their hosts, while Matheus Pereira (£5.7m) now faces a three-match ban for Slaven Bilic’s beleaguered troops.

NOT PER THE SCRIPT

After being fouled in the 34th minute, the flailing legs of Pereira came into contact with Patrick van Aanholt (£5.4m).

Having first given the West Brom playmaker a yellow card, referee Paul Tierney upgraded that to red after the VAR advised a pitchside review of the incident.

Pereira, a key player for the Baggies last season but someone who has struggled to live up to the £6.0m starting price tag in FPL, will now be suspended until after Christmas – and that could be Gameweek 15 or 16 depending on what happens to Albion’s match against Newcastle United this weekend.

The Telegraph reported on Monday that Newcastle’s Darsley Park training ground remains shut, with doubts increasing over whether the Gameweek 12 fixture between the Magpies and West Brom will go ahead.

KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU, ZAHA

Crystal Palace gave the Baggies little trouble going forward in the first half but the Eagles flew out of the traps in the second period as Zaha ran riot.

The Ivory Coast international was the architect of the game’s opening goal, as his low cross was put past Sam Johnstone (£4.5m) by team-mate Darnell Furlong (£4.5m). Before the game, Roy Hodgson said of Zaha:

He’s a very important player for us, there’s no question of that. He’s a very good quality player, we’re happy to have him back. It was disappointing to lose him for the last two games.

But I’m really hoping that that absence will have made his heart grow fonder and he’ll give a very good performance today.

Furlong redeemed himself with an assist on the half-hour mark as West Brom took the game to Palace. Having attempted a cross inside the box which was blocked, Furlong cut the ball back for the onrushing Conor Gallagher (£5.5m) to score.

But Pereira’s red card turned the game on its head, as Hodgson’s team took full advantage in the second half.

Having seen a cross and a shot blocked inside the area, Zaha made sure at the third time of asking with a curling effort past Johnstone after being found in the box by James McArthur (£5.3m) in the 56th minute.

Christian Benteke (£5.5m) made it 3-1 just four minutes later, turning in a stooping header from a Patrick van Aanholt (£5.4m) cross.

Zaha made it three attacking returns on 68 minutes in fortunate fashion, converting the loose ball after the Baggies had disrupted a one-two involving Eberechi Eze (£5.8m) and Benteke.

Following his 18-point haul, Zaha said:

Today was a massive win, I’m just happy to be back helping the team. We deserved the three points today.

I am shooting more this season. I back myself to take opportunities and it is paying off.

I am very happy for Christian Benteke, everyone has hard runs. He is a quality player so I am not surprised he scored.

We weren’t scared to play today. It was harder for them when they lost a player and we wanted to impose ourselves.

We have tremendous ability in our team. We just need to keep picking up points.

HE’S OUR STRIKER, OUR BELGIAN STRIKER

Benteke also bagged a brace at the Hawthorns, turning to fire another goal past Johnstone on 82 minutes from a low Nathaniel Clyne (£4.5m) ball into the area.

At £5.5m, the Belgian – making his first league start of 2020/21 on Sunday – will be one of FPL’s cheapest starting forwards if he nails down a place alongside Zaha.

There are good reasons for that lowly price tag, however, with profligacy and a paucity of goals, as well as injuries, plaguing his last three seasons.

Before the game, Hodgson remarked on picking the Belgian forward:

He’s been working hard to get back in the team. He’s done very well in training. He’s done well on the two occasions I’ve put him on at the end of games.

We haven’t scored in the last couple of games and I think it’s the right time to give him a chance to show what he can do alongside Wilf. That’s the only combination we haven’t used yet.

The Palace manager’s selection proved successful, while Benteke returned the compliments to Zaha following the 5-1 hammering.

“We can be happy this afternoon, we really showed character and composure. We were patient and controlled the game.

“There is no point in me complaining if I am not in the team, the only truth is on the pitch. I have been working hard in the shadows and I took my chance.

“We were efficient, we didn’t let them have any chance. It is a different game for us when Wilf is on the pitch. He showed again how important he is.” – Christian Benteke

On his side’s performance, Hodgson remarked:

We looked dangerous throughout the game and I am really pleased. In training we do a lot of work on attacking formations and how we try to cause problems.

We knew at half time we would have more of the ball and we had to work hard around the penalty area. Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke showed they are goalscorers at heart. Every team would miss their best player.

Benteke’s work rate pleased me. You can’t judge him just on scoring goals or not, we expect a lot from our centre-forward. I’ve told him if he does that work he will satisfy me.

Our front four have enormous talent, Premier League quality. If we can get them the ball often enough I’d expect them to score goals.

On Zaha, Hodgson added:

I thought he was really, really good. I was apologising for not giving him the chance to get his hat-trick but I’m pleased he is disappointed with that.

He scored two very good goals and he was assisted by amazing play by Eberechi Eze.

BILIC TO SCRATCH

Playing at left wing-back in place of the injured Conor Townsend (£4.5m), FPL midfielder Matt Phillips (£5.1m) created the joint-most chances in the game.

The best of those was a cross which Furlong headed onto the crossbar, with Vicente Guaita (£5.0m) beaten. Unsurprisingly, Phillips’ ability to affect the game lessened after Pereira’s dismissal.

Following the loss, Baggies boss Slaven Bilic fumed:

It is a big frustration for us [the red card]. It was the key moment in the game. We played well to come back to 1-1. They scored a cheap first goal but then we came back, we equalised and we were on top of the game.

At least he [Matheus Pereira] gave him the option. I can’t have any complaints. It wasn’t a kick ‘kick’ but you can’t do that at this level. It could have been a yellow but he gave the option to the referee and to VAR. They couldn’t wait.

He will be a big miss. For us to be competitive we need 11 v 11 in every game. Down to 10 men, it psychologically affected us big time. We collapsed after they scored the third one. 5-1 is a heavy defeat for us.

You can find excuses, we played against a talented side but I am not happy with our collapse. You can’t drop your shoulders and stop believing.

The struggling Baggies are unlikely to be high on many FPL managers’ shopping lists but then perhaps neither are Palace: both clubs are at the bottom of our Season Ticker over the next eight Gameweeks.

The Eagles caught Southampton and Manchester United at a good time in Gameweeks 1 and 2 but in subsequent games against high-flying Chelsea, Everton and Wolves, Zaha blanked in Palace defeats.


West Bromwich Albion XI (3-4-2-1): Johnstone; Bartley, Ivanovic, Ajayi; M Phillips, Gallagher, Sawyers (O’Shea 80′), Furlong; Diangana (Krovinovic 46′), Grant (Robinson 62′), M Pereira.

Crystal Palace XI (4-4-2): Guaita; Van Aanholt, Cahill, Kouyaté, Clyne; Eze, McArthur (Riedewald 73′), Milivojevic, Schlupp (Ayew 74′); Zaha (Batshuayi 80′), Benteke.

    Pick one:

    A) Werner, Burke, Konsa
    B) Brewster, Son, Targett

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. Dynamic Duos
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B

    3. Hangman Page
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I think most people will see Son and say B because he scored this week.

      1. The Train Driver
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I have both, had Werner from start and think Son is the better pick, not just because of last week.

    4. BeWater
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B.

      I think Son will outscore Werner.
      Konsa and Targett will end up pretty even.
      Brewster and Burke will get about 10 points each the rest of the year.

    5. The Train Driver
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Basically comes to Son vs Werner so B.

    6. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B

    7. TKC07
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B is safe.

      But A is worth a shot, if you have Kane.
      • 4.3 mid who plays as FWD (as of now would get more mins than Brews)
      • Konsa is a threat on set pieces.
      • Finally Son is in better form than Werner. But Werner is on PEN and might get more changes with Pulisic back and Giroud starting.

      1. TKC07
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        *get more chances*

  2. Maddamotha
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Is this worth a -4?

    Ziyech, Vardy > Salah, Bamford

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Bamford only has 1 home goal, you confident in him?

      1. Maddamotha
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I just checked the teams he played at home, which were Man City, Arsenal, Leiceister, Wolves and Fulham.
        Yes he blanked against everyone of those teams, expect Fulham, where he got 1 goal and 2 assists. So looking at the teams he played, it was somewhat expected that he wouldnt do to much in those games.

    2. BeWater
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Absolutely worth it considering you will captain Salah.

    3. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

    4. Maddamotha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers. Lil scary losing Vardy before Brighton at home, but Leicester has not been playing very well lately.

    5. Kvothe
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes!

  3. Pukkipartyy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Is Cresswell worth a hold? Dont know about the stats, but dosent seem to be very attacking while they play 5 at back?

    1. Jan Strzelecki
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Who would you sell for? Was unlucky not to get attacking points against Fulham, Sheffield

  4. TKC07
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Is it worth -8
    Jota => Salah &
    Werner => Wilson (if NEW game is on) OR Giroud

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Salah dangerous but the other moves don’t make it worthwhile imo

    2. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      No

  5. Concrete

      Could be time to free up cash from lamprey or neco and get in the son

      1. Pacer.
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Ah that neco. Maybe could look at lamptey to a Burnley 4.4 and son

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Or Brewster to Davis

          1. Pacer.
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            Yeah, dead player though. Brewster is at least at a tipping point where something has to happen and in all likelihood it'll end up meaning more minutes for him

    2. Jan Strzelecki
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Get bamford and go 3-4-3

    1. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      gtg

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’d be getting Kane for Vardy even if it’s for a hit

  10. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on this -8

    Cancelo --> Bednarek
    Foden --> Salah and Captain him (C)
    Kane --> Bamford Or Watkins

    A) Yes + Watkins
    B) Yes + Bamford
    C) No have a rethink

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      C. Save transfer and captain Kane

      1. McSauce
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        then I have likelyhood of Cancelo and Foden not playing with a dead bench!

    Breaking!!!

    The FA is considering "Zorb Football" for games involving Newcastle United. Players would remain within their bubble thereby complying with health and safety requirements.

    Mahrez and Kane to Salah and Watkins worth a hit lads?

    1. Pacer.
      • 10 Years

      That Mahrez price point is a killer. Feel for you

    2. La Roja

    If this weekend's Newcastle game v West Brom is at risk (Sat 12th), their following game (v Leeds) must be at risk too as it is only 4 days later (Wed 16th)

  14. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Anything worth a hit chaps? 0.5 ITB and looking to upgrade Kilman/Mitchell next week.

    Martinez
    Chilwell, Zouma, Walker
    Salah, KDB, Fernandes, Mahrez, Jota
    DCL, Bamford

    (Steer, Kilman, Brewster, Mitchell)

    Plan is to then work through Mahrez, Jota and Walker -> Son, Grealish & 4.5 (after City's strong fixtures).

      Pogba is best midfielder in the world? He’s not the best midfielder in Manu let alone world

        1. Non-template FPL is for Kin…
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          He's not worth it for United. They need to get rid of him to move on

        2. TKC07
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Pogba in United midfield is like having Auba in your FPL team.

        3. King Kohli
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          1. Puts himself before the team.
          2. Nowhere near as good as he thinks he is.
          3. Inconsistent AF
          4. No leadership quality whatsoever, infact throws his toys out of the pram at every possible opportunity

          I can go on..

    4. Non-template FPL is for Kin…
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      He's not even the best midfielder in Scotland. Scott Brown would have him any day

    5. TKC07
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Proly he can't handle the heartache of United back in Top 5 for time being?

        Makes me wonder when you started watching football

        1. Champions League Varane
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          All such poor opinions.

      • Rasping Drive

        3 years, 10 months ago

        He’s a fantastic player when he can be arsed. Unfortunately, that’s rare these days.

        Brilliant when he retuned to OT, but only for a while. Then again when Mourinho was sacked, as if trying to prove a point (all he did was prove he’s a tw*t)

        A massive waste of talent and it’s all down to his attitude; he thinks he’s bigger than the club when in fact he’s not deserving of the shirt.

            Could they not just play the game at WBM grounds and play at home in gw27 ? If the players are testing negative and isolating all week ?

              The players haven't trained for a week. Wilson is 3 stones over weight

                Just three stone more ass for the ball to ricochet in off in the 88th

            Hamez + Bruno > Bowen + Salah for a hit?

            I will captain Salah on 2 of the next 3GW whereas with Bruno I wouldn't captain him.

            Is it worth it?

              Not Bruno. Find another way.

            Would you do it?
            Zaha -> Salah, Vardy -> Bamford (-4)

            1. La Roja

              Tough one.

              Yikes. I lost Vardy to afford Salah but not sure about losing Zaha for a hit

              It sure why you would want to lose Zaha

            1FT and 0.8 in bank. How to get Salah in?

            1. Bojam
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 10 months ago

              KDB -> Salah.

              1. Call Me Old Fashioned
                • 13 Years
                3 years, 10 months ago

                considering this then reversing it to get KDB back for WBA while Salah faces TOT

                1. Bojam
                  • 7 Years
                  3 years, 10 months ago

                  Could work. Or just roll with Salah. Not sure KDB will be worth 11.5+m over the course of the season. Probably not a popular opinion but for that price I think Salah is a better option. Maybe you can squeeze them both in but I reckon it imbalances the team too much for my liking.

                  1. Call Me Old Fashioned
                    • 13 Years
                    3 years, 10 months ago

                    I can get them both my sacrificing one of Son, Kane or Bruno.

                    I was set to sell Kane after the NLD but cant bring myself to do it
