Gameweek 8 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) concludes this afternoon, with Everton v West Ham United getting underway at 14:15 BST.

Frank Lampard makes two changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Liverpool in Gameweek 6.

Asmir Begovic comes in for the injured Jordan Pickford, while new signing Idrissa Gana Gueye replaces Tom Davies in midfield.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, however, fails to make the matchday squad.

As for the visitors, David Moyes makes one change, which sees Aaron Cresswell start at left-back.

That means £4.0m defender Emerson Palmieri drops to the bench.


GAMEWEEK 8 LINE-UPS

Everton XI: Begovic, Patterson, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko, Onana, Gueye, Iwobi, Gray, Gordon, Maupay

Subs: Jakupovic, Keane, McNeil, Doucoure, Coleman, Davies, Vinagre, Rondon, Garner

West Ham United XI: Fabianski, Coufal, Kehrer, Zouma, Cresswell, Soucek, Rice, Bowen, Paqueta, Fornals, Antonio

Subs: Areola, Scamacca, Lanzini, Downes, Cornet, Dawson, Ogbonna, Benrahma, Emerson

    Top of the league as per...

  2. Drip Doctor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Looking ahead, would you still do Jesus > Toney for gw9?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Jesus is still a nice option but not better than Toney, Mitro or Izak at the moment.

      1. Slitherene
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        If you could only have 2 out of the 3, who would you drop?

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I am on Haaland, Kane and Mitro at this point.

          I want Darwin back for BRI though.

          1. Rainer
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Don't do that! 😆

            He has done nothing to warrant a start since letting the team down!

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              If it was not for the red card he would be cruising.

              Disrupted everything.

          2. Slitherene
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Two from Mitro, Isak & Toney?

          3. Botman and Robben
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Premium 3 attack?

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Not on WC?

      I'd keep Jesus until he blanks, whether that be in 12 or before with another YC.

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Nope. Goals there for the taking against Spurs. Not keen on selling him at all (unless he gets another YC next game)

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

      I am onboarding Solanke until GW12 ...

    5. Fish up a tree
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No. Spurs at home = goals

  3. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I think the most important thing this gameweek = green arrows 🙂

    I just need Gordon to make current arrows greener!

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

    Mitrovic (NEW, whu) -->Toney (bou, new), for the next two?

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

      Lol, afcourse not, toney is awful

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Wouldn't recommend selling Mitrovic

      1. Slitherene
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I'll get him back, for (BOU, AVL)

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

      I would do the other way around

    5. DARE TO BISCAN
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If I had Mitro, I wouldn't be looking to get rid

  5. Jebiga
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Last minute diched saliba to perisic on wc, lost 0.1 on saliba and 12 points. Never ever will own perisic again, wilo dump him right now

    1. bialk
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Saliba has tough fixtures and BGW12.

    2. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      15 points*

  6. el polako
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Guy in my main ML captained Son and owns Saliba, on 92 points before bonus as it stands.
    Got to respect that.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Very nice indeed

  7. GOTHAM City F.C.
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    1-1 with Bowen and Patterson scoring

  8. Deulofail
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Does xGC take the GK positioning into account?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah, defenders too.

      1. Deulofail
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        So a GK can improve their xGC delta with poor positioning.
        No wonder Pickford's top of the league 😀

  9. bialk
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    My FT will be Martinelli to Maddison - do it now or wait?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Could sell an injured player instead

    2. Orion
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Wait until after IN imo

      1. Orion
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        *IB

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

      Unless WC ready to deploy in case, I'd wait until IB finishes.

  10. Ruinenlust
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Saliva essential?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on the activity.

    2. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Absolutely, one could die

    3. bialk
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No.

    4. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Almost always.

    5. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'd say so. Mouth would be too dey otherwise.

      1. Philosopher's Stones
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        *dry

        These mobile keypads ffs 😛

  11. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    That moment of silence and anthem certainly didn't go well

  12. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    LMS safety score currently 40 with autosubs

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      See y'all next year!

  13. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Never owned Saliba this season, would have brought him now but i think i will wait til gw13. Doesn't make sense even as good as he has been.

    1. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah, I went White from the Arsenal defense GW1 and have stuck so far. Selling on WC this GW and may give Saliba a thought in 13.

  14. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Conversation needs to turn to TAA and Salah. Is there any fear not owning both on WC?

    1. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Sorry not on WC, for Brighton i meant..

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

      None at all until they start to show form, what’s the point when points are on offer from other better alternatives.

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

      Got Salah on my bench this week (regretting not punting on Son) and yeah he has to pay me back GW9, Salah [C] 😛

  15. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Guys off topic, saw some posts regarding pool and queen, why hate towards queen from pool?

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Short version so this doesnt spiral. They are not fans of an unelected monarchy.

  16. Deulofail
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Conversation needs to turn again. Next topic please.

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years

      Lets go round again

    2. My heart goes Salalalalah

          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Oh dear. Can always count on you to lift my spirit 😉

          1. Deulofail
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            At your service!

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

      Back to first topic now? 😛

  17. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Are we expecting Pool to win comfortably againt Brighton at home? Are TAA and Salah non owers going to suffer?

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

      Depends if they do well against Brighton or not

  18. Deulofail
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Beep boop. It's that time for the conversation to turn again. Submit your next question now!

    Maupay loves missing chances

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Your Youtube link doesn't seem to work for me. I would like to hear you say juuhuuuuu on your next vid. Thanks

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        thanks, will update it and look into it. I'll do the juhuuu special when analysing this GW 😉

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          it's updated, hope it works now

          1. Deulofail
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Doesn't work for me. Maybe you just have to put the UCJAXUeeA4-g9-7P5amSEIfg bit in only, and the rest of the address is automatic. Good luck figuring it out!

            1. FPL Daniel
              • 16 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              Thanks man appreciated, will try to figure it out

              1. FPL Daniel
                • 16 Years
                3 years, 3 months ago

                Looks like you were right, did it that way and looks like it is ok

                thanks mate

  20. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Coady stopping Bowen assist!

  21. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bowen almost

  22. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Come ooon Gordon!!!

  23. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    These players gets best conditioning, stretches, warms up properly, then they always tweak something when stretching for a ball? Beyond soft...

  24. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Would you rather have maddison or zaha? Cheers.

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Zaha

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years

    2. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Think both for the upcoming fixtures imo

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Can't afford unfortunately

        1. Gizzachance
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Prob zaha then

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Cheers

              I got madds this week, looking at zaha prob gw10

  25. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Patterson an Bowen, let’s see how this goes !

  26. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Everton really turning up the pressure. Goal is coming.

  27. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Mixed feelings regarding that team, between just e.g. Gross to Billing and WC…thoughts?

    Rambo/Ward
    TAA/Cancelo/Perisic/Trippier/Neco
    KDB/Martinelli/Sinisterra/Gross/Pereira
    Haaland/Jesus/Mitro

  28. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bowen down

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Haha ofc...

  29. theodosios
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Guaita (Ward)
    Cancelo Trippier James (Jonny,Patterson)
    Son Zaha Martinelli Maddison (Billing)
    Haaland Mitrovic Toney

    2nd draft on WC, every advice appreciated

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Better. Prob GTG pending IB developments

  30. JBG
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    If Bowen is actually injured, this will be 2nd time I bring in a new player and he gets injured first GW I own him. Last player was Rodrigo.

    1. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Same !

    2. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Seems to be struggling

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Got his England call up, gotta carry on !
