The Gameweek shifts to the three o’clock kick-offs, with half a dozen matches providing the focus for Fantasy managers, before Liverpool host Villa at Anfield for the evening clash.

It’s fair to say that the bulk of our attention will turn to Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea look to maintain their 100% start to the season against the only side who can match that record – Swansea City. All eyes will be on Diego Costa who has four goals to his name and sports the armbands for thousands of Fantasy managers this weekend.

Elsewhere, we’ve big expectations of Ronald Koeman’s new-look Saints at home to Newcastle, while we’re also monitoring the performances of budget midfield options – Wilfried Zaha and George Boyd – in Palace’s meeting with Burnley at Selhurst Park; both are named in the starting lineup.

The remaining three encounters find Sunderland hosting Spurs, Stoke looking to build on their Etihad victory against Leicester at the Britannia and West Brom taking on Everton at the Hawthorns.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Hazard to Di Maria make sense as my FT?

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No

  2. GoonerByron
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I don't know which was my worst move... Captaining Sanchez over Costa or doing Pelle -> Welbeck 😐

    1. mgilbert86

      arsenal tinted glasses mate

  3. The Finnisher

    Just saw Southampton's goals again - no Pelle assist. JWP 1 maybe even 2.

    1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      12 years, 1 month ago

      So it's a phantom assist?

      1. The Finnisher
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah won't be there much longer.

    2. Billy Gilmore
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No assist for the third

  4. FPL Daniel
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone with Costa captain and Pelle in his team/?

    1. Podge
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Will Costa and Speroni do ?

    2. Screaming Midget
      12 years, 1 month ago

      That moment when you get really excited because you (c) Costa - then realise pretty much everybody who owns him will have done the same anyway.

      1. Lyonnais
        12 years, 1 month ago

        (C)osta and Pelle here 🙂

    3. Dougal McGuire
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Yes. brought in Pelle for Jovetic. Finally my transfer went right

  5. The Chosen One...
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Pelle 100% non assist for the last goal

    1. mgilbert86
      12 years, 1 month ago

      should be removed then, nothing is finalized yet

  6. Butters_lfc9
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Should I use my wildcard on this?Sitting on 28 and not having Costa has cost me

    Begovic
    Dummet-Ferdinand-Naylor
    Sterling-Ramsay-Hazard-Sigurdson
    Rooney-Aguero-Dzeko
    Gilks-Moore-PvA-Marney

  7. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Did Pelle assist Cork?

    1. Mull
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Just watched the goal and I'm not sure who it was but I know it wasn't Pelle or Tadic.

      1. Mull
        12 years, 1 month ago

        It was also heavily deflected as well.

    2. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Apparently he assisted the 4th.

  8. Dr Dream
    12 years, 1 month ago

    2 pts between three defenders and keeper...Time to log off and take up knitting I think...

  9. Darsh
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Tad early, but how does Terry > 5.6 and Naismith > Pelle for a -4 sound? A no right, especially with Naismith playing Palace...

    1. mgilbert86
      12 years, 1 month ago

      you mean the palace that has conceded 8 goals, why are you concerned?

    2. Absinthe Minded
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I would for maybe Moreno?
      Looking at the same 2 out but Pelle & a 5def in

      1. Podge
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Quite proud of that 🙂

    1. Chris_Fàbregas #DOOS…

  10. The Machine

    1. The Finnisher
      12 years, 1 month ago

      How? Im on 50+ ffs! 😀

      Must be plenty of Costa captainers.

      1. The Finnisher
        12 years, 1 month ago

        We'll get them with Rooney (C)

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure if you're trolling to get people to look 😀

      Says 501-412 in our favour on mine

  11. HP.
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Will the assist given to Pelle get changed to JWP?

  12. Owd Big 'Ed
    12 years, 1 month ago

    19 shots for Stoke today, 2 for Leicester.

    Football can be so cruel sometimes.

    Faced three teams now where we have dominated the play but not got the three points. Sick of teams sitting deep and not coming out to play...

  13. jurgenizer | TRIPEIROS
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling (C)

    Costa (vc)

    I'm not religious, but...

    1. FPL Notebook (John)
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I'm on my knees too

    2. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Have a mate in the same position. I'd be down on my knees too!

  14. OPTA FPL
    12 years, 1 month ago

    3 Liverpool subs in 2nd half:

    Borini --> Lallana
    Lambert --> Balotelli
    Lucas --> Henderson

    1. Woy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Please be right

  15. Screaming Midget
    12 years, 1 month ago

    John Terry did me well.

  16. Planet Jo
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I must not go shopping on Saturday morning.

    I must not go shopping on Saturday morning.

    Got back home at 11.45am, remembered I'd forgotten to do Jovetic --> Pelle

    Not happy.

    1. Wirtzle Gummidge
      12 years, 1 month ago

      You've had two weeks for that.

  17. halnone
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I almost want to give up already. Shit week after shit week.

    1. Nice to Finally Michu
      12 years, 1 month ago

      sooooo much this

  18. GoonerByron
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Terry -> Lovren/Moreno.. Yes or no??

    1. Yome
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking about Baines 🙂

  19. RyanC
    12 years, 1 month ago

    47 with Balotelli, Sterling, Di Maria, Lovren and Evans to play.

    If I'd captained Costa or Pellè over Haz... if only.

    Ah well! Awesome day of football regardless. 🙂

    1. Podge
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Including bonus ?

    2. jurgenizer | TRIPEIROS
      12 years, 1 month ago

      that is the spirit

  20. BobB

    How does Rodgers think he can afford to leave Sterling out with no Sturridge, against one of the tighter defensive units in the league who have a decent record at Anfield? Inexpilcable.

    1. 4vets
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No Vlaar

  21. Yome
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Terry to Baines looks really tempting

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      look down 😀

      1. Yome
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Haha 🙂

    2. Ludo
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Missing out on a Baines 12 pointer gives me pangs... but travelling to Anfield and Old Trafford after Palace...

  22. adddiii
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Doing hazard to sanchez....!!!!

  23. Geordienufc1
    12 years, 1 month ago

    24 games in 2014, 14 points. Newcastle 🙁 I do not understand how Pardew survives. That is absolutely pathetic.

  24. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 1 month ago

    replacements for JT ❓

    am considering Baines

    1. Yome
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Me too 🙂

  25. Call Me Guybrush
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone looking at a total defender wipeout?

    Almost there with Jones out and zeros for Colo, Wisdom and PvA. Chester to play.

    1. Reedy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      'fraid so. Unless Caulker bags a goal or Utd continue to be toothless in attack.

  26. The Finnisher
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Wow. Mirallas goal was very lucky. Terrible goalkeeping.

  27. Screaming Midget
    12 years, 1 month ago

    That moment when you get really excited because you (c) Costa - then realise pretty much everybody who owns him will have done the same anyway.

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say %50 so %25 of players

      I didnt

  28. HuttonDressedasLahm
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I just took the shell off my racing snail to see if it would make it any faster.

    To be honest I think it's made it more sluggish

    1. Alan The Llama
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Haha, very good

  29. Azathoth
    12 years, 1 month ago

    So from now each time we learn Costa got injured , immediately we captain him.
