Sunday presents two further Premier League encounters with a variety of Fantasy heavy-hitters on show.

Events begin at Anfield, with Liverpool starting life without Luis Suarez with an encounter against a Southampton side ravaged by a summer exodus. It’s a fascinating scenario that’s set to feature an-all start case of assets, including Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling – players burdened by big Fantasy ownership and expectation. The Saints, meanwhile, arrive on Merseyside looking to gel quickly after a flurry of new arrivals under the guidance of new boss, Ronald Koeman.

The day concludes at St James’ Park, as Newcastle host champions City. Manuel Pellegrini will likely field a much-changed side to the XI that suffered a Community Shield reverse against Arsenal. Even so, Fantasy investment in the City ranks has been tempered, with Yaya Toure remaining the top target, finding his way into 20% of Fantasy Premier League squads. Like Southampton, Newcastle present us with an array of new signings to assess, making Sunday a vital opportunity to scout talent.

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

      I hope not. I don't own Jovetic, but i do want Agüero on my GW3 WC. He better keep himself low key until then.

    How to get Gylfi in?

    Mata - Cesc - Sterling - Ramsey - Albrighton

    No money in the bank. Only way I can upgrade Albrighton is if I lose Terry.

        I am tempted Bubz but would like to (a) build some TV, and Gylfi is set for +0.3 most likely and (b) with his fixtures, could be some major damage coming points-wise

      He probably won't get a goal/assist every game. Wait and see maybe.
      Mata though, assuming you have Rooney. He'll probably do well eventually.. but United aren't a team that look like they deserve 2 of our premium attacking spots

      he was one of the stars of the season for me.

      I always bought him when fit and sold him when injured. He made me good money and loads of points while others were afraid of 'wasting a transfer'

        The guy would always pull a hammy right after coming back from injury. I wild carded and took point hits several times to get him in only for him to get injured and be out for an extended period of time.
