There are no less than seven Saturday matches to come, with the three o’clock kick-offs boasting a rich cast of Fantasy talent, presented with potentially profitable home fixtures. It’s fair to say, expectations are high.

The Emirates will come under focus as Arsenal entertain a Norwich outfit that have just one goal to their name on their travels, while at Old Trafford, Southampton put their record of four consecutive clean sheets to the test against a United side struggling to more through the attacking gears.

Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea promise returns from the back and in midfield when they encounter newly promoted Cardiff at the Bridge, while Romelu Lukaku, sporting the armband for an army of Fantasy managers, faces up to Hull City at Goodison. With Michu’s menace up against bottom club Sunderland, the day looks awash with points even before West Ham host City at Upton Park for the evening kick-off.

Our Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open and will be available right through until the final whistle at the Boleyn Ground.

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

    Have to agree with the comments I've seen on twitter etc re Lallana. Got a very realistic chance of staking a claim for the England squad if his form continues through the Winter.

    I'd be for it, we are gonna need players that offer something different from the bench.

    Okay. Any reason not to do this?

    RVP and Lampard to Aguero and Ozil

    Giroud to Benteke next week to try and capitalise on Benteke's good fixtures and Arsenal's poor ones? I would definitely want one Arsenal attacker, but doubling is not the way I play. Also, any other mids other than Ozil? Maybe Oscar/Hazard? I just think hazard got lucky today with those goals. Not every keeper's going to make mistakes when he shoots? But Oscar?

        Well, he used to be a bummer under Mancini. Not under Pell though. 6 goals and 3 assists already. I've been looking to get him since like 3 GWs now.

        Also, I'll probably wait for the CL games.

    Sold him after that and he cannt stop scoring (5 goals & 1 assists in 4 games).
