He has been sold by more than 850,000 Fantasy Premier League managers since getting a red card on Saturday, but Richarlison (£6.7m) is still in more than a million squads despite not being able to play until Gameweek 6.

So for those who still have the suspended Everton player, should they sell him and who for?

Fantasy expert Sam Bonfield, of @FPLFamily along with husband Lee, says on the FPL Show that the drop in price could make the Brazilian an attractive option to bring in over the international break, especially with a kind run of home fixtures to come.

But she has gone for Lucas Moura (£7.1m) as a replacement this Gameweek after his brace for Tottenham Hotspur at Manchester United on Monday.

"He was fantastic on Monday night," Bonfield says in the video above. "Much further forward than we were anticipating than at the start of the season."
