After a subdued Saturday programme, Sunday explodes on us with veritable feast of football featuring five of last season’s top seven sides. While Chelsea’s visit to the Etihad at tea-time is undoubtedly the headline act, we’ve plenty to keep us engaged until the 4pm kick-off.

The day begins with a pair of fixtures, with Leicester looking to continue their impressive start to their campaign against Louis van Gaal’s United redux, whilst at the Lane, Spurs will be seeking to dish out further punishment to a West Brom side that’s faltered out of the blocks so far.

That’s rounded off by the main event in Manchester, with Everton’s Goodison clash with Crystal Palace running alongside it. Fantasy managers look set for a eventful afternoon,then, with the day’s events potential turning Gameweek fortunes on their head.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news and key injury updates as the night draws in and Gameweek 5 draws to a close.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Welcome to the life of a supporter of an average team

        Aston villa is not average. It's GLORIOUS. 🙂

        1. Epic Fail

          Well, I suppose we are the best claret and blues in the world 😉

            No. We are. 🙂

            But I totally loved that Villa team with the bearded captain.

    People who WC this week will have Ulloa and Welbeck up top. Lols.

    1. 4vets
      12 years, 1 month ago

      And what's wrong with that?

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Lots. If u had them this week great if you bring them in now massive lols.

      2. Debauchy

        Leicester only playing MU again next year ?

    2. Judas
      12 years, 1 month ago

      still not convinced my Welbeck

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I'd rather have an std than welbeck.

    3. BenDavies
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Ulloa is a great buy, I cannot see why firstly you care so much and secondly how you think this is a poor decision? Ulloa has fantastic fixtures to come and has scored 5 goals in 5 games. Rethink what you said. Welbeck is another good buy.

      1. Debauchy
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah could well be great buy . I have him in UFPL although on the damn bench today.In so saying he was a little lucky having United today.

  3. Les Bleus
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Got 2 FT's

    A) Jones and Ade out for Clyne and Welbeck
    B) Jones and Ramsey out for Clyne and Di Maria
    C) All transfers for a -4

    Thanks

    1. 4vets
      12 years, 1 month ago

    2. For Fuchs Sake
      12 years, 1 month ago

  7. Ice
    12 years, 1 month ago

    1. Les Bleus
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Clyne

    2. Ice
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Sorry, Lovren, and I already have Bertrand and Bardsley

  8. SENTI CAZORLA

      And therein is the reason why Baines should never be captained.

      1. Your Mum's Athletic
        12 years, 1 month ago

  21. Woy

    1. Not Irish

      You broke the golden rule.

  23. Not Irish
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Dammit, Aguero. You're my captain. You have to do better than that.

  24. Captain Shirokov
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero consistently gets the best haircuts in the league.

  25. Fifa las vegas
    12 years, 1 month ago

  30. tm245
    12 years, 1 month ago

    The only good thing about this gw is there are no matches tomorrow.

    1. Not Irish
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I should know to proceed with caution when I have a good Saturday.

      Always ends badly.

      1. tm245
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I like my team but it doesn't score points. Thinking I have bad taste.

        1. Somalion
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Nothing really wrong with it, expensive defenders are killing you though.

          1. tm245
            12 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah, my back seven is a bit of a horror show. Seemed like a decent idea before the season began...
