Saturday afternoon continues with a quintet of fixtures to entertain us before Everton square up to Chelsea later on. For many, the main focal point will be at the Etihad as we look to see whether Sergio Aguero will be let off the leash against Stoke, with Stevan Jovetic’s owners anticipating another home brace from the Montenegro striker.

Newcastle have been heavily backed in this week’s Scout Picks and we’ll be hoping to see new boy Siem de Jong justify our show of faith ahead of a very kind run of fixtures. Fantasy managers will also get to run the rule over Palace’s potential in the St James’ Park encounter as Neil Warnock takes the helm for a second time.

Elsewhere, Fantasy favourites such as Steven Caulker will be hoping to make an impact at home to Sunderland, while Gylfi Sigurdsson’s growing band of owners are expecting returns for the third Gameweek in succession as Swansea prepare for the visit of West Brom. West Ham welcome Southampton to Upton Park as Big Sam pins his hopes on Mauro Zarate to inspire his side to another win.

You can look to out Twitter feed for all the lineup from today’s matches.

    hmm, JT and Mata out, Vert and Cesc in ❓

    1. LewanGOALski
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      looks tempting tbh

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        also kinda want Raheem though

        1. LewanGOALski
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          I'd rather go for Fabs over Sterling

  2. JT's Dog
    11 years, 11 months ago

    This week I seem to have given great advice
    Sell terry, keep bego, keep DDG, captain Siggy

    Do not expect it in future , I will be returning to my usually crap next week

    Annoying owning Terry whilst he's getting outscored by Ivanovic.

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Agreed

    2. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yup

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      And the week you do Terry to Ivanovic, he gets benched. It's written.

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I'll never do that transfer. I'd rather double up first.

        1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Do it, the points will a be a coming

    4. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Full backs this year my man

    5. theloveburglar
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yep and to see him stay back for corners too.. has to go

    6. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I hate owning Terry atm.. either gonna upgrade him to Ivanovic or swap him out to get money for my attack

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        yeah I'm thinking about the latter, am also tempted by flirty Verty

    7. JT's Dog
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah that 0.5 really made up my mind rather than the player

    8. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Agree. Also hurts that Mark has him 😉

    9. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Got them both

  4. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Fabregas - Ramsey - Mata - Siggy (Albrighton)
    Rooney - Costa - Dzeko

    2 FTs

    Mata ➡ Sterling tomorrow if Sterling is not hurt, and wait with the other transfer for after the international games (probably Dzeko ➡ Adebayor, if nobody gets hurt) ??

  5. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Hazard off Mikel on. ITK.

  6. Oflow
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Terry is not worth it, downgrading.

    1. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Or upgrade to Ivanovic.

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yup.. one of the two. think im just gonna downgrade though.

    2. theloveburglar
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      debating vert

  7. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Begovic and Rio got me a cleanie, but Terry didn't. Crazy week. Great game though!

  8. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Delighted that CS is gone 😀

    1. LewanGOALski
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yeap 🙂

    2. RabMac
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      So am I as an Ivanovic owner.

      1. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I'd say so 😀

      2. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        That's silly - with a cleanie and a goal he'd be a shoo in for the big bonus points.

        1. RabMac
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          No its not as lots of people have Chelsea defenders but only a small percentage of them have Ivanovic and also with Chelsea conceding in 2 of 3 games it means people who don't are more reluctant to get Chelsea defenders.

          1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Well with mou's record of 55-60% of CS with his teams or was that just Chelsea.

    3. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I almost feel like i should be given a CS for Terry every week for paying the premium over cheaper options 🙂 .. he's gone soon

      1. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        That's the tough one this season, the pricey ones (barring Ivan) aren't destroying the cheapies 😉

  9. JT's Dog
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Triple Chelsea defence blown then

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Ouch

  10. red_devil
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    repost should i do rooney>costa now before rooney drops?? or wait for man utd next fixture??

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Up to you but I wouldn't let the price rule the choice

  11. Costa in Wengerland
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Asking again 😛

    Wasnt that clyne's assist ? 🙂

    1. Bobby
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      At the time everyone seemed to think so. Not so sure know. I realise this probably doesn't help

    2. Sebbo29
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      was not a shot on goal but rather a cross, and direction of ball significantly altered by GK so rules say NO assist 🙁

      1. Bobby
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Ah that's probably more helpful. Slightly annoying but helpful

        1. Sebbo29
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          i don't like it either, got him as a DEF

          1. Bobby
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Yep one of those where this site gets you excited at the time then it's all taken away from you. Maybe it'll be like Suarez last year and well get it in a week or so.

      2. Costa in Wengerland
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Ohh
        Thanks

      I want a spam fritter now 🙂

  13. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Jose

    He wasn't lying at all. He didn't train two days, trained Friday, reaction was OK so he was passed fit.

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      The Sun on the other hand.....

  14. Sooda
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Argh bye Cahill Cleanie.

    Almost did Silva/Bojan > Siggy/Jovet

    Glad I did not now. Think im going to do Silva > Siggy next week though...maybe Bojan > Diouf given theyve got Leicester and QPR next...

  15. ZE GERMANS
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    ivanovic red card incoming.

  16. Jay Jay Okocha
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    The Costa injury fiasco devestated me. Blew 2 FTs to drop Costa rather than shifting Cahill to Clyne. Oof. Now I'm stuck with a gimpy Mata and a benched Dzeko.

    1. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Dzeko wont be benched for long. Pellegrini made a mistake today, a mistake we saw coming.

      1. Jay Jay Okocha
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        More annoyed about not having 2 FTs over the international break, honestly.

  17. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I don't want to wildcard but I want to wildcard.

    1. Texas Pete
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Do it. You'll feel so much better.

  18. AIRMILES
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Has anyone posted about BPS for this week?

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Lazy, half the fun is working them out yourself.

  19. Mindless Freak
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Fabregas will probably end up with 4 less points than Siggurdson. Dam.

    1. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      *6

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      4 fewer.

  20. super zlatan
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I didn't get one cleanie this week 🙁

    1. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Me neither... I got 3. 😉

  21. The Machine
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Switching terry to ivanovic will probably pay off long term. Just feels like a waste of transfer though

    1. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Just did it.

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Patients.

      That's the main ingredient to success this season.

      1. Diva
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I wouldn't recommend getting injured players... 🙂

  22. halnone
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    I hate fantasy.

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      The fantasy's fine.
      It's the real players that feck it up.

  23. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Looks like Fabregas will keep up with Hazard this year... Not good.

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

      He will beat him easily imo

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I might triple up

        1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          With Chelsea youmean?

      2. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        This.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      the one player in the game im scared not owning. gonna downgrade Terry GW 5 and get him

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I've got 2 FTs might lose JT next week and get Mata out for Cesc

  24. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Fabregas and Costa. 😎

    Knee jerkers getting punished big time this season.

    1. gravless
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Super Stoke City

      😉

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        🙁

  25. El Muñeco
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Clyne assist?

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      no

    2. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Which goal?

    3. Sebbo29
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Unfortunately I don't think so, but still hoping they'll give it to him somehow

  26. Mull
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    At least Chelsea have got to try and score now instead of just taking a 2-0 win.

  27. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone else finding this a very confusing gameweek?

    As in, I have no clue whether I am doing well, badly or average...

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Agreed.

      I am on 40 points which I feel is just below average.

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        No way that's below average, no way.

    2. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Over 30 seems good at the mo, not much gonna move though.

  28. lazybones18
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    my move

    jovetic ---> costa ----> jovetic

    i love fantasy 😀

  29. Mindless Freak
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Really need another assist from Fabregas.

  30. ZE GERMANS
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    c'mon mou. park that train in second half.
