The latest on Pope’s injury as Saint-Maximin exploits out-of-form Burnley defence

Our write-ups of Sunday’s matches begin with the early afternoon kick-off at Turf Moor.

A round-up of the day’s other three games follows at the bottom of this piece, with more detailed Scout Notes to follow on Monday.

BURNLEY 1-2 NEWCASTLE UNITED

  • Goals: Matej Vydra (£4.8m) | Jacob Murphy (£4.9m), Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.1m)
  • Assists: Chris Wood (£6.3m) | Saint-Maximin, Jonjo Shelvey (£5.3m)
  • Bonus: Saint-Maximin x3, Murphy x2, Shelveyx1

SAINT-MAXIMUM BONUS POINTS

After an uninspiring first half from the Magpies which Burnley ended 1-0 ahead, it was the arrival of the fit-again Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.1m) that sparked Newcastle into life at Turf Moor.

It took the Frenchman just three minutes to leave his mark on the Gameweek 31 clash as he took on the Burnley defence in the area before laying the ball back perfectly for Jacob Murphy (£4.9m).

The right wing-back slotted a scintillating effort in the far side of Bailey Peacock-Farrell‘s (£4.0m) net.

Five minutes later Saint-Maximin made it fairly certain he would pick up all three bonus points, with a slaloming run from just inside the Burnley half ending in the winger finding the corner of the Clarets’ net.

It could have been an even bigger haul for the FPL midfielder but for James Tarkowski (£5.3m), who blocked a Miguel Almiron (£5.6m) shot on the line after further excellent work from Saint-Maximin.

“I feel really great. Everybody knows this game is really important for Newcastle. I give this win to the supporters who couldn’t be here. I’m really happy to help my team with an assist and goal in this important game.

“I was really frustrated when we were losing 1-0 and I said to the coach I would like to have time [on the pitch]. [This win] is a big opportunity. We are six points over Fulham.

“Now we just have to keep going forward and try to do the best we can do against West Ham. It’s important to come back stronger after being injured.” – Allan Saint-Maximin

The winger was introduced at the same time as Callum Wilson (£6.5m), who was making his return from a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Of the pair, Steve Bruce said:

They weren’t capable of doing 90 minutes. The question was, can they make an impact? We’ve been without them for so long, you can see what they bring.

We know when we have people like them in the team, you can see the impact it has. Without our biggest and best players it’s been a struggle.

NO BLANK FOR CZECH

While Matej Vydra (£4.8m) just missed out on bonus points after Newcastle’s comeback, he continued to push his credentials as a budget striker option.

The Burnley forward scored from close range after Chris Wood (£6.3m) got down the left-hand side of Newcastle’s defence in the box before pulling the ball back for his strike partner.

Wood has five FPL attacking returns in his last four outings, with Vydra registering three goals and an assist in his five most-recent appearances.

“It was the same last weekend. We were so deep. The game totally changed and we lost again. In the Premier League, there is so much quality. We were unlucky because we just didn’t score that second goal. We have to be focused for 95 minutes. I don’t know what’s happened the last two weeks. We have to be focussed every single game and take some points because we have lost six points from last two games.” – Matej Vydra

BURNLEY LIVE IN POPE

Fantasy community eyes Burnley clean sheet in first Double Gameweek match

A shoulder injury ruled Nick Pope (£5.5m) out of action in Gameweek 31. Following the defeat, Dyche explained:

He made a save at Southampton and [hurt the shoulder]. It has settled down, so we were in risk and reward territory. We decided not to risk him. It has calmed down already.

Having given up a 2-0 lead against the Saints in Gameweek 30 to lose 3-2, the Clarets were again guilty of squandering an advantage.

They are the only Premier League team without a clean sheet in their last six matches and the Burnley boss reflected:

We’re a bit limited at the minute. It’s a strange season for us. We played well for a large period of the game last week and didn’t see it through. The same things has happened this week. We’re not a million miles away.

We have dominated a home game and they had a good five minutes and two key moments but that is sometimes a performance. I think it was our most dominant performance of the season statistically but the biggest statistic is the scoreline.

Bruce, meanwhile, was naturally delighted with three huge points for the Toon.

This win is big but there’s still a bit to go. Certainly, it’s a helping hand. It’s an important game, so to win it was very good. It’s been difficult with our injuries. You can see what Allan Saint-Maximin brings to the team. We’ve missed that bit of quality and excitement. To be missing your top players constantly, it affects teams.

Let’s hope our players stay fit. As good as I think I am, I need our best players. We’ve still got a long way to go, a lot of twist and turns as that’s what the Premier League is. For me it’s always been about the accumulation of points. There’s a points tally you have to get to and we’re creeping towards it. To come and win here is a big result for us.


Burnley XI (4-4-2): Peacock-Farrell; Pieters, Mee, Tarkowski, Lowton; McNeil, Westwood, Brownhill, Gudmundsson (Mumbongo 90′); Wood, Vydra.

Newcastle United XI (3-4-3): Dubravka; Dummett, Clark, Fernandez; Ritchie, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Murphy; Joelinton (Saint-Maximin 56′), Gayle (Wilson 56′), Almiron (Hendrick 90+2′).

ELSEWHERE IN GAMEWEEK 31…

Ill Aubameyang misses out as Xhaka starts at left-back

Some of the lesser-owned Fantasy Premier League assets from Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United took centre stage as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side triumphed 3-1 in north London.

Blanks for Harry Kane (£11.7m), Bruno Fernandes (£11.6m), Luke Shaw (£5.3m) and Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.7m) meant that four of the five FPL players with double-digit ownerships in this fixture didn’t deliver anything more than appearance points.

Only Son Heung-min (£9.4m) from this quintet popped up with anything meaningful, tapping Spurs into a first-half lead for his first goal since Gameweek 23.

Edinson Cavani (£7.8m) and Mason Greenwood (£7.0m) both registered two attacking returns apiece along with bonus points to supplement their scores.

It was far from a convincing audition for Spurs assets ahead of Double Gameweek 32, with their defence looking particularly suspect again.

Son topped the shot count and key passes table to further his case for inclusion in our squads next weekend but there was more misery for those who retained the services of Gareth Bale (£9.2m), who was benched for the third straight Premier League match; his total pitch-time over the last three Gameweeks comes to ten minutes.

Image

The phenomenal form of Kelechi Iheanacho (£5.9m) and Jesse Lingard (£6.4m) continued at the London Stadium, with both players bagging braces in West Ham United’s 3-2 win over Leicester City.

The pair are joint-top of the Premier League’s goalscoring table from Gameweek 22 onwards, which marked the start of both of their extended runs in their respective sides.

The in-demand pair were among the top three most-bought players of Gameweek 31 and rewarded their new and existing owners with double-digit hauls; this was Lingard’s fifth such return in nine West Ham appearances.

Also among the points was the injured Michail Antonio‘s (£6.6m) replacement, Jarrod Bowen (£5.9m), who teed up Lingard’s second goal and then scored what turned out to be the match-winner when converting Tomas Soucek‘s (£5.3m) pass.

It was a poor afternoon for owners of the defenders on show, with West Ham almost letting a three-goal lead slip yet again.

It’s one clean sheet in seven for the Hammers, one in eight for Leicester.

Vladimir Coufal (£4.6m) and Ricardo Pereira (£5.9m) at least partly compensated with assists but Aaron Cresswell (£5.9m) limped off with a hamstring injury, with his substitution marking the first time he has missed Premier League minutes this season.

James Maddison (£7.2m) and Ayoze Perez (£6.0m) were missing altogether from the visitors’ squad but their absences are thought to be for disciplinary reasons rather than injury-related.

Arsenal’s first clean sheet in 15 competitive matches predictably arrived at Bramall Lane, with a doomed Sheffield United side turning in another sorry showing.

Alexandre Lacazette (£8.3m) grabbed a brace in South Yorkshire, taking his total to 10 goals from Gameweek 15 onwards – a total that no other FPL forward can beat in that time.

Injuries and illness played a big part in the narrative in this plum fixture for the Gunners, with semi-popular differential punts Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.3m), Emile Smith Rowe (£4.2m), Martin Odegaard (£5.9m) and Kieran Tierney (£5.2m) all sidelined.

Bukayo Saka (£5.2m) limped out of the match midway through the second half with a thigh injury, meanwhile.

    2 years, 11 months ago

    Finally a decent use of a chip.

    All out 79 on wildcard. Still not in the Top 100k but did almost half my rank down to 145k.

    It's been a long road back from 4.5m rank in GW4... Still a long way to go

    1. Jack Burton
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Well done keep it up mate

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks, definitely has been a tough and rough season, hoping to salvage something at least haha

        1. Tired and weary
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Know the exact feeling, 75 this week and now at about 200k after being 4.5m in GW4. Inside 100k totally possible, keep at it!

          1. Dirty Harry
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Definitely been a taxing season. But got to keep at it for the run in

        2. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          I saved mine and a little behind now, similar story... Annoying that top 100k looks "easy", but too 10k is too far away.

          1. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Top 10k is beyond reach I meant to say.

            1. Dirty Harry
              • 8 Years
              2 years, 11 months ago

              It is a shame to be aiming for Top 100k but I think it's all relevant to your season start. I had a shocker, and it turned in a salvage mode after a terrible start and terrible decisions/luck.

              My previous chips this season have been terrible as well.

              So can only hope to push hard in the run in and hope my choices go my way and get into Top 100k at least.

    2. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Well played!

  8. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Bamford to Cavani anyone? Looked sharp today

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Not a bad shout but he will get rested for the odd game with Mason or Marcus starting up top.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Greenwood was also good. They will share minutes more.

      1. The Point About It Is
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        I also think Greenwood is a good differential shout.

  9. fc_skrald
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    TAA or Lingard?

    a. Cancelo -> TAA
    b. Gündogan -> Lingard

    Martínez
    Cancelo, Digne, Shaw
    Salah, Fernandes, Gündogan, Mount
    Iheanacho, Kane, Bamford

    McGill, Pereira, Lowton, Struijk

    1 free transfer, 2.5 million in the bank

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      B

    3. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I'd say B

    4. fc_skrald
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks all. Welcome Lingard, about time...

  10. King Kohli
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Who would you prioritize for this team?

    A. Son(Will take a -4 to get him)
    B. Iheanacho(Free)
    C. Both for a -8

    Martinez
    Dias Azpi Rudiger
    Salah Bruno Jota Lingard Raphinha
    Kane Watkins
    3.9 Antonio White Struijk

    1 FT 2.6 ITB. FH left.

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      C Son for -4 for two games is practically for free compared to expected pts and Shu is coming soon. Yet you have to handle the blank.

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Do you mean A or C?
        I still have the FH left, could use it in gw 33 or save it if there is a dgw in 35.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Antonio to Nacho and Raphinha to Son. Can you afford Dias to Reguilon?

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        5.4 for a defender if I do those transfers.
        Coady/Holding/Phillips looking like my options

  11. Jam0sh
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Probably A. I'd consider Bruno -> Son for free

    1. Jam0sh

      reply fail on above

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers mate.
        Don't want to lose Bruno for Son.

      usually when Mark gets a decent rank / huge green arrow 🙂 😉

  14. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Is Salah essential for game vs Leeds? Have Jota also.
    But the only way to get Salah is to loose Bruno (+ Digne to Saiss) :/

    Martinez
    Dias Digne White
    Bruno KDB Son Mount Jota
    Kane Nacho

    Steer Bamford Aina Dallas

    1. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nobody is essential.

      I personally wouldn’t make those transfers to get him, but trust your gut

    2. OneDennisBergkamp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      KDB > Salah i am looking at doing. KDB not nailed for prem games.

  15. OneDennisBergkamp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    2 questions..

    Antonio > Nacho?

    Best GK for rest of season?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Yes
      Martinez

  16. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Will Lingard rise in price tonight?

    If the answer is yes who goes for him?

    Salah Bruno Son Mount Jota

    Currently debating between Mount and Bruno who with Pogba in the team is not that good

    1. OneDennisBergkamp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Moun

    2. AzzaroMax99
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I'm close on Bruno to Lingard, have Kdb instead of Salah, rest is the same.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        it's very difficult but we have to have him, today he was 9pts against my rank. if he blanked i would have shooted into the rankings and he plays Newcastle

  17. _Ninja_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Which 1 to start next gw?
    TAA/Shaw starting. Have Mendy in goals.

    A Rudiger (BHA)
    B Holding (FUL)
    C Coady (SHU)

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Probably A

    Anybody else bench Nacho?
    I cheekily started Laca ahead of him BUT that Gundo cameo cost me
    I think I knew it was a mistake straight away
    69 all out on wildcard but jumped from 110k to 70k so far

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      amazing week. for you

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks. Even that lingard vc couldn’t bring myself to captain him

    2. The Point About It Is
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I just think that owning any MCI is just too risky. Even if they do play, their mindset is no longer on EPL and the upside is no longer that great.

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yep sold Dias but thought for some reason Gundo would start instead of Kdb. You’re right forget the fear or not owing city their are others performing well

    3. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Nice wildcard, although you have that benching problem also after this week 🙂

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Yep correct but plan to ship Gundo in 33

  19. Riggs
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Hi guys. Do you think that Iheanacho is now nailed on? For next GW I have Forster, Iheanacho, Fofana and Dawson on the bench and I am thinking about BB.

    1. The Point About It Is
      • 11 Years

        My biggest concern is the GW starts on 16th and they have semi-final on 18th and PL game on 24th. If someone gets injured or rotated from Leicester, there is nothing I can do to stop the catastrophe and wasting the chip.

      Can't see why Rodgers would drop him in his current form.

    3. Jon Snow

      He's their most dangerous and in-form attacker, I think he plays

    Evening all!!! Any Arsenal fans around?? Will Rob Holding start next weekend do we think?? Or when is Luiz expected back?? Thankyou

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Luiz is recovering from surgery so it will be a while I'd say.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        how while?

        1. Traction Engine Foot
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Well he won't be back next weekend. The club's being pretty vague about it but I'd guess Holding plays the next few at least.

        Cheers mate!!! Thanks for that, so Holding should be good for Fulham then?

        1. Traction Engine Foot
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Yeah I'd expect him to play.

    What are you people think on this move - Bamford to Laca?

  23. Kno
    • 13 Years

    Soooo, who goes out for Sonny boy? Thinking it might have to be Mount if anyone

    Salah bruno lingz jota mount

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I'd probably transfer out Bruno. Mount depending on what else you'd need to sacrifice

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Bruno for me. you won't captain him for a while. you will need to restructure that team if you are selling mount

  24. Stranger Mings

    Is this right play a) shaw b) coady & c) rudiger so bench d) holding & e) Philips?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Play Shaw since he had the highest ceiling. Bench Philips. Toss up between the rest as their ceiling is similar and have decent fixtures on paper

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers yeh tough between , holding, rudiger & cosdy but think I will probably bench holding out of those

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Who is your GK? Tough bench Holding. He is a BPS magnet when arsenal keep a CS

          1. Stranger Mings
            • 3 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Lloris with mendy on bench / I know very tough benching him

    Thoughts?
    Auba and Gundo -> Lingard and Bruno -4 with exact cash. Scared of going without Jota.

    Martinez Areola
    Stones Dias Azpi Rudiger Burn
    Son Salah Auba Gundo Raph
    Bamford Kane Kelechi

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Can't t have them unless you want to take another hit. Jota, Bruno and Lingard all have good fixtures in 32. Probably priorities Bruno and Lingard

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks Tony. So you think it’s a good transfer?

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          Auba out with the flu but he is inconsistent. Gundo/City still in all 4 comps so still a rotation risk.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Get Jota now, Bruno for free week after?

  26. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC lot?

    Mendy
    Azpi Coady TAA
    Pulisic Lingard Son Greenwood Salah
    Kane Nacho

    Bench: Martinez Silva Dias Konsa

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Heavy GK pair. I would stick with Martinez and go cheap with Forster. Dias still a rotation risk. Better cheaper def available. Konsa to Rudiger

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Really like Konsa for GW 33. It’s a bit much on GKs I know.. will tinker around a bit more

    GW rank of 7k on WC. It's nice when something works out for a change.

  28. Baps hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Reguillon or Moura?

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Neither man

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Agreed

  29. Gazwaz80
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    63 all out, on Wildcard, swapped Son for Stirling on one week punt and captained him ( that worked out well ) and Lingard languishing first on bench , I know, it’s my fault but I go him in for his good fixtures and Leicester were playing well..
    This week could have been so much better 😀

    1. Gazwaz80
      • 4 Years

      Sorry 65....

    Bonuses added but still no assist for Jota. I guess it wont be added. Disgusting. Clear assist.
