Despite the lack of an early kick-off, Saturday still delivers six Premier League encounters, with five three o’clock clashes followed by Norwich City’s home meet with West Ham this evening. While that match is lacking assets to interest Fantasy managers, this afternoon’s games seem laden with points, particularly at Anfield where Liverpool face lowly Fulham with armbands clasped firmly around the biceps of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge.

With Chelsea facing West Brom at the Bridge, the Southampton rearguard up against Hull at St Mary’s and Romelu Lukaku locking horns with the Palace defence, Fantasy managers should be looking at a steady flow of returns from today’s events to take them into Sunday’s big fixtures.

Our Twitter stream is carrying all the latest team news prior to kick-off, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to furnish those who like some real-time reaction.

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

      debate will reveal nothing

    Demel didn't hit the crossbar. The crossbar got in the way of Demel's goal

    Not a fan of early transfers but will have to do Sturridge > Suarez tonight before prices change. Please no international injuries!

    1. Yome
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      What are you waiting for?? You are 3-4 weeks late with Suarez

      1. JS27

  8. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years

    1. rohan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I told you. Suarez 😀

      You probably would have Captained him anyway

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 16 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Yup.. been my captain all week 🙂 .. i'm more thrilled about GJ and Hazard though 🙂

        1. rohan
          • 14 Years
          12 years, 2 months ago

          Yep. Have them and Lallana and Baines and the armband on Luis

    2. Jimbo123
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      But not scoring, as per....

  9. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Is Michu & Benteke >>> Sess & Remy worth a hit?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Keep tekkers

  10. Mr Smith
    • 15 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Lukaku owners what you doing?

    Thinking of bringing in Rooney, worth it?

    1. Champy
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      My plan as well

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Considering the same, though I still have Silva to deal with. Might take another hit!

    3. Mr. Bean
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      would like to get rid now, but need to get rid of Coleman, Barkley first

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Coleman 6 points per game in last 3
        What kind of production do you want

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Yes definitely

    5. 8-2
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I'm going -4 to do Lukaku > Rooney and Ozil > ?

      1. eljinj
        • 12 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        lukau > rooney with silva > lallana (-4) for me

  11. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Norwich making west ham look like barcelona

  12. Cilly Bonnolly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    38 plus bonuses at the moment with five to play. Rival has scored two more points. My Chico, Ramsey and Aguero should still outscore his Dawson and Yaya though right?

    1. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      This will be more accurate than any answer you'll get...

      Chelsea 😥

  14. SPorting
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Can I just say that, after the season we've all had so far, I don't begrudge anyone having a gloat on here.

    Not one bit.

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      God knows I've been waiting a long time for one.

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      unless theyre the type to gloat normally ...

      1. SPorting
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Only Forca does that.

        1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
          • 14 Years
          12 years, 2 months ago

          nah i know a few more who think theyre gods gift.....givin it all of that

    3. BuK II
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Gloating is fine. It's the "OMG Suarez (c) just scraped me to 55 pre-BAPs with 6 to play. Do you think I'll get a green arrow?" that's annoying!

      1. Tobiathan
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Or the "I scored 85 with 2 players, do you think that's above average?" lol

  15. AK ⭐
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard 😎

    1. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years

      +1

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      + lots 😎

    3. rohan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      😎

      We need to up our game

    4. Yome
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      he was due after what happened with him, obvious Michu replacement really

    5. Tobiathan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Gifted a pen that wasn't a pen. Change that smiley to a vomiting greenie.

      1. AK ⭐
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        He still scored that pen. Calm as you like.

        Oscar owner? Its okay, I wish I could console you.

  16. Colonel Shoe 肝池

  18. alang
    • 15 Years

    How is 46 points so far. about average?

    1. SamH123
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I have 46 as well
      I'd like to think a little above average, but maybe only average for the top 100k

    2. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I think so

    3. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Below average.

      1. alang
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        you reckon. what you think is average around 50?

    4. BuK II
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Have 46 too and will go from 6th to 2nd in my work ML tonight. Lots of big hitters to come tomorrow though...

    BPS have been adjusted. Seems nobody important lost theirs.

    Hooray!

    1. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Yay! Did anyone important get them is the question

      1. Gargamel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Yep

        1 for Sessegnon 😎

        1. Valar(Keith)
          • 16 Years
          12 years, 2 months ago

          Cant wait to get him in for mirallas!

  21. SPorting
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    I would imagine all the new Hazard owners will be thanking Silva and wishing him a speedy recovery.

    1. Tobiathan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      They should be thanking Andre Marriner that twank!

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      i got coutinho 😕 im not very good at this game

  22. DRIZ ✅

    The yellow ball and Norwich kits. Clashing

    1. Mr. Bean
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      isn't yellow on yellow matching?

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      hmm surely that shouldnt be allowed, bit like american baseball kits arent allowed to have baseballs on em

  23. Carden
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    I want to find replacement for Lukaku, currently thinking:
    A. Benteke
    B. Remy
    C. Giroud (need to do Brady > Januzaj)
    D. Rooney (still working on my drawing board as how to get him)

    Will appreciate any advice, especially how to get Shrek into my team. 😀

    Team Linked

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      B or D

    2. Mr. Bean
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      A and B look good, though Benteke hasn't found his form again (but most likely will)
      if you want D, maybe downgrade Ozil to fund Lukaku > Rooney if you really want him

  24. FPLFamily (Lee)
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    12 years, 2 months ago

    Went to the match today and Suarez is just sublime - and worth the 'hassle' he gives us.

    Changed my tune since the summer, as I wasn't his biggest fan, but great to see great players performing in the right way.

    ...oh and Suarez (c) 🙂

  25. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    opinion pls, Drop for -4 Sturidge & clyne for Rooney & BTurner? thx

    1--yes
    2--no

    1. Yankee
      • 16 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      1 ...but I'm having terrible week/season so maybe 2 is wise!

  26. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Straight forward question for anybody who saw the game...Did Coutinho look the part ?...has he a few goals in him ?

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      stats say yes...... but you know how it goes

    2. Tobiathan
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      He certainly took enough shots, but most were quite far off target

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 2 months ago

        That'll do..in it to win it as they say...Oscar on the other hand....

    3. FPLFamily (Lee)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Looked ok but obviously lacking match sharpness. Couple more games and he will compliment our front two perfectly.

  27. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
