The Gameweek continues with a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, culminating in a relegation scrap in South Wales as Cardiff host basement dwellers Sunderland.

All eyes will be on the Manchester clubs, however, as City and United face fixtures that, on paper, look profitable for Fantasy mangers. Wayne Rooney’s relentless form has another opportunity to come to the fore at Carrow Road, while City’s Etihad juggernaut has its engines running and is aimed squarely at the bus likely to be parked by Tony Pulis’ Palace.

We’re expecting big points all round and a potential rollercoaster of an afternoon before the evening clash brings us back down to a simmer.

As always, look to our Twitter feed for the latest teamsheet news while our Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to cater for your real-time chatter needs.

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

    Disaster would be an understatement. 7 from 5.

    Looking ahead. If Sunderland can score 2 vs Cardiff, imagine what Arsenal can do?

    Quality gw so far with 20 and six incl captain to go.

    Condolences to all Rooney owners, that was pure rotten luck.

    No condolences whatsoever to people who didn't care to sort their teams out knowing this week would come, and are now whining about how fpl is purely a game of luck.

    Also, I really hope Borini is ok.

      it's hard to sort a team when you keep getting injuries every week

      this week you have to contend with the injury crisis and rotation

        Well, you haven't linked your team so I can't answer you. But I've seen a lot of complainers on here who went and did luxury transfers instead of sorting out the basics.
