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.

    3. davies

              • 16 Years
              11 years, 7 months ago

    5. Bobby Reds
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Balotelli is the strongest man in the premiership.

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

  4. Honeybadger
    • 11 Years

    Anyone noticed the lack of penalties so far this year?

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah... those that have been awarded have mostly been missed or saved!

    2. Phaze 1
      • 14 Years

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

  5. Mulder

    Liverpool penalty coming up

    1. Pedram

      1. Mulder
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Mignolet

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

          You like Banter

  6. Woy

    1. Sebbo29

  7. Randy_Marsh
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Markovic been better than Coutinho

      1. Randy_Marsh
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        I forgot he was on the field

      Shipping.thinkng welbeck.x

      1. Frank Black
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Awful fixtures, though.

  9. Sunny 😎
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Where are all those people who were saying Costa is a donkey during pre-season?

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I never called him a donkey. I called him a potato.

      1. Sunny 😎
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        I should own up too..I called him a Hyena 😀

    2. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He's a donkey of a man.

      1. Sunny 😎
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        You mean a man with a donkey sized manhood? 😆

    3. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He's gone to Milan

  10. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Senderos is a piece of shit.

  11. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Senderos will be looking at a retrospective ban along with Costa then.

    1. FPL Emu
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Dreadful player, and a big douche.

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        He's played well this season, so far.

        1. FPL Emu
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Probably his best PL run, tbf. Doesn't make him a good player. I refuse to see that.

    2. davies
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Costa? What'd he do? (Was watching Leicester win)

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Elbow on Siggy

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

          Bad enough to get banned?

          1. Not Irish
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Absolutely. Off the ball so the officials never saw it.

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

    Haz and Ade to Chadli and Costa for -4?

    Yay or Nay? Cheers.

  13. adddiii
    • 12 Years

    Seams...Costa in shoes of suarez. ....

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …

      ummm. whut?

  14. chrrizzy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    wht the fck is senderos doing? How stupid can someone be?

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

      IQ below 70

    2. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      if his IQ was 3 points lower then Vlaar would have to water him twice a day

  15. Dr Dream

    Stuck at foot of last page...
    Just makes no sense these Hazard fails...Everything I look at screams top pick...http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/4933/

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I can't see those stats but being a Chelsea fan, I watch each and every game and Hazard is just amazing. He will surely explode when everybody get rid of him

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Will he though? Or is he being less "selfish" this season - he said something to that effect didn't he?

        1. Sunny 😎
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          He did say that but he also said he needs to add goals to his game and if you watch how he plays, you'll see he is a bit selfish in the way he drives at defences and gets into the box all on his own but that's when instead of going for goal, he looks for the cross/pass.

    2. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Apparently he was central to everything today, last year as soon as I took him out he went on a scoring run, he's severely testing my patience with fabs scoring well....

    3. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      It's like Coutinho last season

    4. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      His shots to pen area touches ratio is quite low

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah they are...but for how long ?

  16. comeonspurs
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Who assisted southamptons 4th goal

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Cork

    2. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      jwp.. they will add

      1. comeonspurs
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Why have they not added jwp assist is it in any doubt

  17. THE ORACLE
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Will people finally admit that hazard is a shit FFprospect...I have been trying to warn you lot for a long long time. Buck up your ideas. The oracle has reminded you yet again

    1. THE ORACLE
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He won't get deflections for points everygame

    2. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Still a Helen Hunt then, eh Oracle?

    3. Chris_Fàbregas #DOOS…
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Why do you really care what people think?

      1. THE ORACLE
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Don't care...just love the attention of pro hazard ears trying to justify him

    4. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      What about last season or the season before? What has changed this year (genuine question)?

      1. THE ORACLE
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Teams have worked out his drifting across the penalty area and he doesn't take people on anymore....plus chelsea are no longer reliant on midfield goals since the arrival of Costa.history is history...has no relevance on current tactics or form

    5. Phaze 1
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      not sure if serious. Ever hear of varience?

    6. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Lol Naismith vice captain.

  18. Mindless Freak
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Senderos has to be given a ban after this game.

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

      +500!!

  19. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Chance for United to make up some points tomorrow if things stay as they are.

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

      Yup, Stoke slipping up certainly opens the door.

    2. Carl@streetkids.com.au
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Man Utd 0 : QPR 1

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        United'll be lucky to get nil...

  20. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Looks like Villa are happy with 0-1. All 11 in the first 3rd of the pitch.

  21. Theseus
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Whats this talk about a Costa restrospective ban?

  22. Randy_Marsh
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    I have Hutton in the subs hmmmm

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      sounds painful

    2. Tiki-Taka
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Its been 30minutes

  23. Mr.Irwin
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Is it just me or are the billboards at Anfield very annoying

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

      lol that's a first

      1. Mr.Irwin
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Think I just had an epileptic fit. Too many flashing lights

    2. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Those billboards are at every ground these days

  24. Frank Black
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone thinks that Schneiderlin could be a serious option?

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

      Quality player, not a FPL option.

    2. Carl@streetkids.com.au
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He's in.

      Sorry I benched him.

      The thinking man was getting Williams.

    3. PogChamp
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He would be on my list but think Pelle and Clyne are better options.

      1. Frank Black
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Well, he scored once again and today Bertrand delivered more points than Clyne.

  25. comeonspurs
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Is jwp assist in any doubt

  26. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Matter of time before Liverpool score here surely...

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

      Shirley

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I thought Lallana would score there. Good block by Senderos.

  27. super zlatan
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Dzeko owners shipping for Pelle?

    Or a bit jerky?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck

  28. Plagued by indecision
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Well, spending 4 points on Sterling and giving him the armband... inspired decision.

    1. Plagued by indecision
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      and I dropped Eriksen for him. Bloody brilliant.

  29. piquiblanco
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Oh feckin Sterling benched.
    I've heard about it yesterday, but was so busy that haven't even thought about my fantasy 🙁
    Hope he's not getting any minutes, Aguero VC.

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

      Not a chance he won't come on at this rate. I have Costa vc 🙁

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

        Aw, unlucky!

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

    Don't get angry Balo 😐
