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 Pochettino’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 hosts’ chances of avenging the 5-0 humiliation that led to Andre Villas-Boas’ 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 Balotelli’s display will be eagerly analysed.

Villa and Hull go head-to-head in the other 1.30pm kick-off, with Paul Lambert’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 – having scored the winner against Besiktas in midweek, the Chilean’s confidence is on the rise.

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

    Chambers amongest the BAPS?!

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He's got a CS.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Ha! Amazing, I haven't watched the game, I had no idea. What happened?

  4. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    So it looks like Chambers could get a cleanie here. Some lucky gits out there including my mini league leader.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      2 baps too 😆

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        I know. He shouldn't even be owned.

    2. OnionBag
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      But how's it different to a striker coming on for last 5 mins and scoring?

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Reserve defender unlikely to start, so completely different.

        1. alastair
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          He is the cover for both centre backs and the right back so there is a decent chance of starts

    3. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      It's absolute filth.

    4. Ad4m
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Loving it , but he needs to go v. Soon sadly

    5. Red Devil Swede
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Reminds me of Kos last season - a Kos goal, injury, taken off and then Arsenal conceeded. Wonderful for us owners 🙂

    6. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      So what happened exactly, I am one of those lucky hits.

    7. moment
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Hahaha... Feels like the cheekiest 4 points I'll get all season...

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        At least you admit it rather than defend it. Happens about once a season.

  5. Ramboo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Chambers at 8 points is so sexy!!! Yeah!!!!

  6. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    So basically all (c) choices failed except Costa but lots took him out (some for -4 hits)?

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

      A fair few went for Siggy

      1. Gaz Downright
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        I had it on Siggy, but changed when I took out Costa for Jovetic.

        Baaah :sheep:

        1. Baa

      Errr ... 😉

      1. Bøwstring The Carp
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        😳 was between him and Rooney for me 😕 we know who I picked

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

    3. The Man Pastore
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I captained Hazard, not so bad...

    4. BantamPhil
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Siggy 😎

    5. Declan-
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah 🙂 and that "injury" cost me around 20 points. Oh dear. My captain would have failed regardless though.

    6. Sebbo29
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Siggy here

  7. FF Dirtbag
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Just did Mata -> Sterling. Sensible move? My team now is:

    Begovic
    Jones Clyne Naylor
    Fabregas Ramsey Sterling Siggy
    Rooney Costa Jovetic

    Gilks; Davis, PVA, Wisdom

    How does it look?

  8. Gnu

    Mr Fitz has entered the building. 😆

  9. Sess!

    11 years, 7 months ago

    Pelle worth bringing in? Heard he's had loads of chances and nice set of fixtures.

    1. Clam. ☘ï¸
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I'm thinking the same thing. Taking out Jovetic.

  10. Syd.

    Boo hoo

    1. vova

      1. Red Devil Swede
        • 13 Years

    RAMSEY THIS IS YOUR MOMENT

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Why don't you want him to score?

  16. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    lol Chambers is getting a cheeky clean sheet.

  17. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Painful GW. Cost ---> Adebayor. Chambers ---> Coloccini. Rooney captain. FPL is a cruel mistress sometimes.

    1. RyanC
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Ouch. Just before the international break too.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Might wildcard to ease the pain

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

      Fellow Costa-seller here, wasn't too bad till that 2nd goal ðŸ™

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

        Also Bubz, drop me an email here: willspam94@gmail.com

    3. Kerz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      On the bright-side, you're in the top 1% rank-wise.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        True, but then you could also look at it as if I didn't make those transfers I would be top 5k 😆 Ah well

  18. mohit thekop
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    should i do rooney->costa and debuchy->dier and silva-> for -8

  19. Pooodle
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Is Mata to Sterling a no brainer? Worried about getting rid and then Mata going big against QPR...

    1. Red Devil Swede
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Wait for the internationals.. Sterling might get injured. As might Mata. Wait.

      1. Pooodle
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I think that's the sensible approach - really benefited from holding Costa this week!

  20. Theseus
    • 13 Years

    Drink wateeeeerrrr!!!

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…

  21. 7923dos
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Which 2 should I have? Currently have Mata and Rooney but have 2 FTs and cash for any combo

    Mata / Silva / Rooney / Aguero

  22. Pinoche

    Wenger will buy a striker.

    1. Kew Pee Arr
      • 12 Years

      And pigs will fly.
