Sunday serves up a trio of Gameweek encounters, with Thursday’s Europa League ties pushing Hull and Tottenham’s home fixtures alongside Man United’s trip to the Stadium of Light.

Events begin at the KC Stadium and White Hart Lane, with Steve Bruce’s Hull hosting Stoke and Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs facing a London derby clash with QPR. Fantasy managers will be focused mainly on the latter, with Christian Eriksen the top owned asset on show from the early kick-offs.

Attention then turns to the North East, with Louis van Gaal’s United outfit taking on Sunderland in a bid to get their season underway following the opening day defeat to Swansea. With a staggering 48% ownership, Wayne Rooney remains the headline act, while Juan Mata’s 19% ownership will be holding out for returns in order to stem a tide of sales that have already seen the Spanish playmaker drop in price.

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

    Anyone watching the Spurs game. How's Mutch doing? I'm assuming terribly..

    2. Royal5

    3. Gaz Downright
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      he just gave the ball to Spurs, and it should have been 4-0 to be honest

    You ever feel like when a fan goes to a game, and their team is up by 3 or something. Then, all of a sudden, a player they don't have on PFL owned by a lot of teams scores, and everyone is happy and he or she is secretly sad?

    Lol I always wonder about that for some reason*

  16. Sif
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

  18. Bellerinmondo

  20. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Repost on the right thread

    That Robertson for Hull is staring at me...got to be a shoe in with those fixtures and OOP...4.0...What's not to like.

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He's 4.5

      1. The ghost of a Pug's g…
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        And may not play every game...

    2. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      4.5

    3. Demí
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I thought he was 4.5

      I think it's his spot to lose, and if he keeps playing well, then no reason why he should be dropped from the side and could offer a good option. Is he also ineliglble for Europa?

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Is he...apologies...4.5 is still worth the watch...Who is his competition Demi ?

        1. Demí
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Rosenior mainly i think

    6. Bellerinmondo

        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Not what I saw.

      2. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

  28. 7alwachi
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    De Gea/Austin swap for Fabianski/Naismith. Gives me 2.4m ITB which I can later use to upgrade Mata to Di Maria and Dzeko to Balotelli. Thoughts?

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Always worth having a few quid in the bank imo. Decent swaps.
