Last weekend’s headliners get the Gameweek started as Swansea face West Ham at the Liberty in the day’s early kick-off. Following that, we’ve no less than seven other Premier League matches in a bumper Saturday programme. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to soak up your real-time reactions as today’s matches roll on.

The team news from Swansea finds Michael Laudrup not surprisingly keeping faith with the same XI which scored five at Loftus Road. Chico recovers from a knock to start in defence, then. As for West Ham, they give £10 million man Matt Jarvis his debut, while James Tomkins also returns to the starting lineup and could well occupy a midfield role. Ricardo Vaz Te and Matt Taylor have made way.

Enjoy the game and all today’s action.

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

    I doubt anyone will read this, the way the pages are turning.

    But am actually gutted for those who had Aguero initially and then went to replace him for Rooney.....It's a terrible fate, and FPL Gods are being unusually cruel. It will get better soon...

    Btw I have Michu and I absolutely don't like this bandwagon today. 90-120 posts on "Michu scoring, suck it everyone" is plain ridiculous.

    Completely agree with the benching of rooney, United have a more than able replacement in RVP and if Rooney is still out of shape/lazy then he should be on the bench. Plus side is this might motivate him.
