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.

    Who had this idea that Begovic is a good FPL choice ? smh

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      Me. And I still do, Sparkie notwithstanding.

    2. Hazard for Ballon D'or
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I said bego would be bad. Worrying that I said Adrian would be better though :/

    3. Frank Black
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He's a very good GK and he has delivered good points in the last seasons.

  2. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    To start next week

    Sterling (spurs)
    Mutch (SUND)

    Was on Mutch but after seeing QPR ....

    1. SW6
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Has to be Sterling

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling

  3. Bolivian Seaman
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Who are you transferring in for chester if any?

    1. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      maybe robertson

    2. ImpinAintEZ
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I was thinking Colocinni. Or Vlaar even though i have Cissokho. I don't ever plan on buying a Hull defender again they seem way to much of a risk, and now with them playing in Europe even more so.

  4. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    last chance saloon for erisken next week i think

    1. Sweetpea
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      will drop in price though

  5. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
    • 14 Years

  6. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Lamela to lose at least 1 bap for sure. Could even fall behind chadli

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      How so, Nate?

      1. The Machine
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Dispossessions.

  7. Christina.
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    So I own Chester. I bench him for his 15 pointer, and play him for his -2.

    FFS.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Really quite pants isn't it.

    2. ImpinAintEZ
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You going to drop him? and if so for who? I have the same dilemma!

    3. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      same

  8. Somalion
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Caulker banging in the goals I see.

    Hopefully Lovren can continue his fine scoring form as well.

    1. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      he's had chances, should have scored at the end of the game

      only a matter of time, i'm giving him one more week before he is added to my 'move on asap' list

  9. rickardinho
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Trade Steven Davis for:

    A) Lamela
    B) Eriksen
    C) Tadic

    3.0 itb, -4 hit

    1. Redhulkster
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Lamela
      I have him since my draft1 😉

  10. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Eriksen > ?

  11. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Had nobody in those two games. Could have been so much worse 🙂

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      The Chester red and Eriksen blank was great for you.

  12. Cak Juris
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Dier bonus point, please? 1, 2 or nope?

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      2 I think when they calculate it again. Out is definitely chance of 1 if chadlis winning goal baps make too much of a difference

      1. The Machine
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Outside chance of 1*

  13. davies
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Taylor in for Chester?

    1. ImpinAintEZ
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Is he nailed on?

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

    RVP, Aguero or Sturridge?

    1. HP.
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      RVP and Sturridge.

  15. Judas
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Please someone help me with what to do with Eriksen? Have £0.5m in the bank too

    Current MIDS: Eriksen, Ramsey, Sterling, Silva, Marney

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I would keep, but I reckon Tadic is gonna come good too

    2. boredjames
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      leave him

    3. RmS
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Keep him. Goals will come.

    4. 1966 was a great year for E…
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Keep him.

    5. Judas
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Buy guys I dont have Siggy? And I watched the game today he looked average at best. When he isnt on free kicks he doesnt get assists

    6. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Actually - I think it may be time to sell.

  16. VougieDipond
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Stoke have an amazing run of fixtures after next week. Might as well keep the faith in Bego. Caulker however. I jut need to decide whether im shipping for Newcatle or Southampton defender

    1. SW6
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You may as well keep Caulker for one more week.

      1. VougieDipond
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        might as well. 2 FT's will give me room for the right change the following week

  17. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Yes or No ?
    Cahill -> Dier & Ince -> Siggy (-4)

  18. mojoindojo
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Brace from Mata, Rooney and couple of peno saves from Mannone. Not much to ask for?

  19. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    What a dire CM for us today. 🙁

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Dogshit looks and smells better.

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Loleverytime cleverley starts, man united fans whinge about their midfield

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Is that any surprise?

  20. Plagued by indecision
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Eriksen, Bojan, Davies... Load of FPL rubbish even though they all played well.

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      did Bojan play well? I didn't watch the game

  21. Djerbil
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    3 hours ago : 46 from 6

    Now : 45 from 8

  22. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Bad news, for Lamela AND Eriksen owners:

    http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1373/

    Chadli, on the other hand ...

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You're stats do not cover Lamela

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        He is right down the bottom ...

        1. Ginkapo FPL
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          I know he is in the table, but those are not the stats to assess Lamela by

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            So, you don't like the stats ... OK.

            This table was tried and tested last Season. I shall continue with it, if you don't mind. 🙂

            1. Ginkapo FPL
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Silva, Fabregas and Lamela are outside of that table. Not critising the table, just this particular use of it.

    2. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Bad news for Chadli is they won't be playing QPR every week.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        That is true.

  23. SW6
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Diouf got a BPS score of -4 😆

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No surprise. He was dreadful

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        ... as he was, at Blackburn ...

    2. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 3 months ago

        ffs

    3. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      how many games is chester suspended for?

    4. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      And let that be the end of the 3-5-2 experiment then 🙂

    5. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      There's no doubt Caulker has impressive goal threat. He will score goals this season.

      But he is in such a shite defence. 5.0m was too much for me...

      1. Bellerinmondo
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        it makes me a bit sick looking at him in my team while watching QPR

    6. MattysFantasyFooty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Just see a Rooney brace to make this Sunday even worse

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        😆 +1

    7. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Dier can do one.

    8. Indalo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Relieved that my decision to captain Lamela didn't blow up in my face 🙂

    9. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      RvP captain?
