Gameweek 17 Review
Gameweek 17 had several players underperforming but a few players managed to raise the whole team’s stock.

However, captain Eden Hazard recorded 26 points due to his goal and assist against Brighton. Robert Snodgrass also impressed with 11 points while both Aaron-Wan Bissaka and Matt Doherty got 6 points each as both their teams got clean sheets.
The team finished with a total of 61 points.
Gameweek 18 Transfers
West Ham United’s compelling defensive form makes a case for adding Lukasz Fabianski into the team instead of Matthew Ryan. Other possible replacements for Ryan include Jordan Pickford and Rui Patricio. However, due to his kinder fixture list, Ryan stays.
Playing in a Fulham side that is facing a goal drought, Aleksandar Mitrovic can also be let go. Possible options include Raul Jimenez and Glenn Murray. Southampton’s revival makes Danny Ings a potential candidate also. No transfers are done during this gameweek.
