Fantasy managers have three matches to feast their eyes on today before the international break is upon us. Up first, Spurs welcome Liverpool to the Lane as Mauricio Pochettinoโ€™s side attempt to pick up a third straight win under the new man in charge.

A host of players from both sides are on the radar this afternoon, with Christian Eriksen, Erik Lamela, Nacer Chadli and Emmanuel Adebayor key to the hostsโ€™ chances of avenging the 5-0 humiliation that led to Andre Villas-Boasโ€™ departure last year. Liverpool are poised for a superb run of fixtures after this match and while Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling are the obvious targets, Mario Balotelliโ€™s display will be eagerly analysed.

Villa and Hull go head-to-head in the other 1.30pm kick-off, with Paul Lambertโ€™s side seeking a third successive shut-out before the fixtures take a real turn for the worse.

In the final match of the Gameweek, Leicester entertain Arsenal at 4pm. Aaron Ramsey rolls up to the King Power Stadium looking to net for the third successive league match, whilst Alexis Sanchez is also finding his form โ€“ having scored the winner against Besiktas in midweek, the Chileanโ€™s confidence is on the rise.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Sterling off, Liverpool can concede now without me losing a point

    1. Rupert The Horse

      Well said.

  2. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years

    Actually feel a bit robbed that Sterling is only getting 7pts from that performance ๐Ÿ˜

    1. Sebbo29

      Same here, deserves more, but still happy with the points, not complaining ๐Ÿ˜‰

    2. @ocprodigy

      I'll take Henderson's 9 pts if it stays..

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

      True...but if they stay as they are and he gets 3 bps for the winning goal, he will nick 1 bonus

    So my current attack is:

    Mata, Siggy, Ramsey, Eriksen
    Costa, Rooney, Jovetic

    1 FT

    I was thinking about Mata to Sterling... I have no Liverpool coverage due to their fixtures, but now they've become better I'm looking to get Sterling in. It would balance my team as I already have Rooney for United cover. Also, the funds would allow me to upgrade Yoshida (who isn't nailed 100% apparently).

      Costa > Sanogo

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 11 months ago

        What is the point in posting on here if you're just going to say things like that?

        Go do something productive.

          Don't be rude, you know you don't like that.

          1. HUMZAH96
            11 years, 11 months ago

            It was just banter

            At least I didn't abuse him

      After the game works better.

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Read the last bit in the **

          • 17 Years

          Sterling might have 2 games for England.

          1. HUMZAH96
            11 years, 11 months ago

            Yes

    4. Whazza
      • 14 Years

      Probably doing the same with those players

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yup, I wish I could have Fabregas though

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

      looks like a good move

      1. HUMZAH96

    Is Sturridge going to get that assist?

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

    2. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      What assist?

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

      There is no assist ๐Ÿ˜•

    4. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      What assist?

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Which one Doos?
      He assisted the assister twice.

      1. Doosra - โ˜ญDeclanMyGeniusโ…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Ah. OK. Pity. ๐Ÿ™‚

    6. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      for the 3rd goal? no

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

        No, Moreno tackled a player.

    7. SW6
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Nope

    8. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Assisted the assister for the first two.

      1. Doosra - โ˜ญDeclanMyGeniusโ…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years

        Cheers.

  6. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    A Capoue goal now would be nice.

  7. Jax
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    dunno about you guys bout 2 freebies for me:

    eriksen out for gerrard
    bojan out for jelavic

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      How is your knees btw?

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

    Why didn't United go for Moreno again? I sometimes hugely dislike our keenness for British "talent".

    1. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      coz our scouts don't like to travel

    2. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      why? english national team would be better if they bothered signing/playing any

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Notice that the British players transferred early. Except Dawson.

    4. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Shaw will prove to be a better signing. Moreno is suspect defensively.

      1. Mr_Partridge
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 11 months ago

        such a doughnut

        1. Woy of the Wovers
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Clue's in the name.

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

      Especially when pool managed to get him for 12m instead of the reported 20m

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

      United generally not doing much right these days in case you didnt notice

  9. jernej93
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    If I use WC I can get team like this:

    Krul (Myhill)
    Terry - Jones - PvA - Clyne - Hutton
    Siggy - Sterling - Hazard - Ramsey - Albrighton
    Rooney - Costa - Adebayor

    ?? ๐Ÿ™‚

  10. VougieDipond
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    You know your attack is poor when you make Liverpool's defence look like Ac Milan's from the early 90's

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

      Really poor. I was hoping to see some proper end to end stuff.

    2. Frank Black
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Until yesterday, everybody wanted to bring Ade, Lamela, Eriksen and Chadli in.

  11. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    come on lamela. do it.

  12. Dr. Rog
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Best 8.7 or less mid that is not Sterling or Siggy?.

    1. Prime
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Mirallas?

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

      Lamela

    3. 7shadesofsmoke
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Dyer ;0

    4. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Henderson..definitely Henderson

      Fixtures & Form...Only if he was expensive. he would be more respected around here

  13. parkerdip
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    whys Gerrard top of BPS? he only scored a penalty and done nothing else

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

      has played well

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

        Compared to Sterling who gets zero BAPS? No way!

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

          yellow card

    2. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      he got 2 bonus against city despite doing nothing

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

      Doesn't make any sense. They're giving them to him because he has a lower ownership. "The Fantasy People"...

  14. Kostja
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    It could still be Jelly goal guys as the shot was going in anyway, ciccokho just failed to clear it, most sources gave it to him too

  15. Moody1000
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    ivanovic or coleman or baines ?

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Ivanovic

    2. Kerz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Ivanovic

  16. Saniul
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Raheem Sterling is the best young player in the Premier League right now. Period.

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

      Best teenage footballer in the world imo

    2. Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Both him and Oxlade will have breakthrough seasons

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

      No doubt

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

      I can't wait til Real come in for him...

  17. 7shadesofsmoke
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Come on Kaboul

  18. Here's the manager
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Ok so this is new, not rushing the transfers. But with

    Krul Mannone
    Terry chambers wisdom Jones Baird
    Ramsey Coutinho Siggy Mata Cattermole
    Costa Rooney Jovetic
    2FT 1.0 ITB

    Do you think
    A Coutinho and Chambers out
    B Coutinho Mata out
    C Jovetic and Coutinho out.

    Any suggestions for who are welcome , looking at Henderson, Aguero, Fab, Sterling, just no concrete ideas

  19. YouReds
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Chambers ->

    A) Yoshida
    B) Naylor
    C) other (up to 4.8)

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Wilson

  20. Leaf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Am out

    Is sturridge looking threatening or doing anything ???

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

      Not now. All Spurs ball.

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Could have scored a couple, still selfish in certain situations but a great FPL asset looking at the fixtures to come

  21. Your Mum's Athletic

  23. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Who to get rid of first, Jovetic or Bony?

    1. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 11 months ago

      As a Jovetiฤ‡ owner I think we'll have to ship him out.

      Nothing to do with quality rather, he like Dzeko will suffer from rotation issue things fwd.

      1. OShaughnessy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
