Gameweek 17, Will the Hurrikane arrive this week? Match day Thread....

This game is doing my head in, instead of being delighted I brought in Negredo and Ericksen for Hazard/Anchibe I am literally kicking myself for having a brain fart yesterday morning by bringing in Nyom for Gibson and looking at 8 points on the bench. What was I thinking? Trying to say 'it's only a game' and if captain Eriksen gets a hat trick and I score 100 points I'm still going to look at those 8 points and think what a dumb klutz I was.
29 (should be 36) -4 from 5.

26(-8) from 5 for me. Cap'n Kane and others today will make or break my week

If Kane heavily outscores Alli, I'm not checking my team until St Stephen's Day morning.

And maybe not even then!

There's potential for Alli to be dropped/rested today, he's been very poor the last couple of games

Thanks. Needed that.

He was poor against Hull alright but the whole team were poor against United. He did ok against Swansea and got 2 assists. He's just come back from injury so would be surprised if Poch didn't continue playing him in order to get him back to full match sharpness.

On his way home to my team

Cedric plays

spock.

Bournemouth XI: Boruc; Francis, S.Cook, Ake, Daniels; Arter, Wilshere; A.Smith, King, Pugh; Wilson

Forster, Cedric, Yoshida, van Dijk, Bertrand, Reed, Clasie, Hojbjerg, Boufal, Rodriguez, Redmond

Please be 0-0

Hogey007

Zero players in this first match but have wilshere & Forster in my fantasy draft team so hoping for points there.

Out of curiosity, do many of you play the draft? It's my first year & actually prefer it to the regular fpl.

Someone stick the roundy thing in each teams netty thing once please.

Mr. Guappa

Fancy Adam Smith for a nice 15-pointer here.

Incoming Adam Smith own goal, missed penalty and red card so

km79

Surely it's smiths time for attacking points considering he has been basically up front for the last few weeks

Aké what an absolute hero

Benimar

Oh F*** off!

Rival has Ake, I have Forster.

May have to do a sideways Smith to Ake transfer.

SlickRic

Of course it was Ake. Obviously. The one player who'd hurt me.

Considered a double up for this week but ake is ineligible next week

Bertrand goal

km79

And clean sheet gone
Can switch off now

KevIRL

Claise assist there

SlickRic

The only positive of the Ake goal is there definitely will be eejits who bring him in tonight.

What site does the fantasy draft

Ziegler1988

Both cleanies gone already, lovely jubbly

Fonte dropped btw for yoshida
Fonte will be on the move in January so......could be a potential problem now for buying phil Jones

What a miss Redmond

km79

Great chance for Redmond from Bertrand pass

Think Smith was actually more effective before the switch in formation. Before, he was getting wide and whipping in crosses but now he's drifting inside a lot and doesn't look as dangerous.

Was just about to type the same
All he is doing is laying the ball off AND covering for Francis who is constantly overlapping him
He is on the chopping block now cos he is not in my team for clean sheets!

Ace2007

I fully expect Kane to score at least one goal if not more today and Sanchez to blank - double Southampton defence today - while Pickford and Gibson on bench with 16 between them - one step forward 4 steps backs last few GWs

Boufal yellow

HT 1-1

That's the rumour why he didn't play a minute in the Europa League, to avoid being cup tied for a move

Cantona's Collars

Somehow forgot Ake was in my team. I think him being flagged for next week threw me. Just checked how the game was going and saw he scored..happy days.

Why is it not a good idea to bring him in? Feel like I am missing something obvious here :o

J Rod goal, Davies assist. Boufal looks very lively too, I'll be keeping an eye on him

People still won't notice the big red triangle above his name and waste a transfer.;)

J rod is listed as a midfielder this season and Austin is out long term..........if he could nail down the starting spot in new year I'll be all over him

Boufal is Moroccan I think . Did they qualify for AFCON

Mr.Prodston

J-Rod eh?
