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.

    Is it time to thin out on the Arsenal picks this week ?

  2. S.Kuqi

    Suddenly jovetic form and fixtures don't look too good

    I advise getting costa

  4. The Machine

    11 years, 3 months ago

    Feck mourinho could have easily subbed costa off for drogba. Feck feck feck

    That goal may have just won me my H2H with Parm

    1. How Mina You

      Just out of interest, who is actually in your team?

    2. k2ashley
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      you had Naismith on the bench as well.

  6. dribbler
    • 16 Years

    costa 3 bonus

  7. Obi Wan Elokobi
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Rooney out Costa in don't care about international break will not be having a United player the rest of this season.

    1. Bauerhaus 24
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      i bet you will.

      1. Obi Wan Elokobi
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I won't don't like the team and only really did it for the fixtures.

  8. Fifa las vegas
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Definitely be doing Mata + Jovetic/Adebeyor > Chadli/Siggy + Costa

    I feel like I just have to, I've missed out on too much already!
    But do I just get Siggy, or maybe wait and see how Chadli is and take a punt on him?

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

    Costa on for baps 😎

  10. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years

    i salute the costa captainer

    1. Wakka Wakkas
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      That's me.

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

    Costa is on my bench. What chance, as a percentage, will Coutinho not play tomorrow?

    1. DIegoCosta19
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      hahhahahhaha

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

        Indeed!

    2. El_Matador
      • 14 Years

      Clutching at straws.

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

        Indeed!

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

          You may have used up all of your luck for this season with that one, learn from your poor selection policy of benching a 10.5m in-form striker who is 'doubtful'

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

            I think you're correct. I've been cursing myself ever since yesterday, it was definitely a case of going on a hunch. And, because it happened so early in the season, it'll be my wake up call.

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

              Best of luck for the season ahead, I need to have a re-think over the break.

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

                You and me both. All the best.

      2. Cluckfuster
        • 14 Years

        That was intense!

    4. Essan

      I am hoping for a Hutton non show for the same reason ....

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

      ha ha thats worst mistake of your life

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

        Yep.

    6. Cluckfuster
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Or the change that Coutinho will score 9 points or higher?

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Costa high ownership

  13. El_Matador
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Tough season so far for impulsive/impatient managers.

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

    Costa captain every game material.

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

    Considering Costa has been out for 3 months he looks pretty good

  16. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years

  17. theloveburglar
    • 13 Years

  18. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Wish they'd stop going on about Mourinho not being happy and having plenty to work on. They have scored 6 goals against Everton away ffs. Boo hoo.

  19. RyanFootballChatbox
    • 11 Years

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        1. Ben Mee Over A Table
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          What a strange game. Especially for a team like Chelsea.

      7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Mourinho trolled sellers

        1. Exeter Gently
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

      9. Bod
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        So far, out of all of my players that have played only 3 have scored 2 points or less, two of these are my captain and vice captain.... Woops

      10. Jay_
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Ivanovic Bertrand Fabregas in,
          Kolarov Terry Mata out
          If done today leaves me 0.1 itb
          Is this worth a -4 hit ?
          If so does it need to be done tonight ?

          1. Kuqi Monster
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            11 years, 3 months ago

            Not bad.
            No one has any idea about the exact timing of any price rises/falls any more.
