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.

    Liverpool won't win the Champions League so their priority must be top 4 in the EPL - to do that Sterling must start

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

      Players that were fielded should beat Villa anyway.

      Sterling did not start for a hidden agenda! Postmortem would reveal details...

      Don't do it when you're good.

      54 (-4) with Rooney and Chester to come. Not a good week. Defence is a shambles.

    Guzan getting a bonus, did he even make a save?

  6. JT's Dog
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Gonna find it hard to justify sacking lambert playing like this.
      Waste of wages hiring Roy

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Why a waste of wages? Villa are playing out of their skins.

        1. JT's Dog
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Ain't down to him. He just sits there waiting on the promotion he was promised

          • KOKAK
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Villa are playing normal, Liverpool are the ones who is just passing time!

        Debuchy out for? -

        A) Wilson

        Bottom of Last Page Repost

        Kudos to those who started Villa defenders
        U can feck off though if they are coming in off ur bench for Yoshida or Alex Bruce

        1. The Machine
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          😎

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

        On the plus side, Rodgers won't rest Sterling again 🙂

      5. JJO
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        People were saying that sterling will be rested and that all markovic lallana and coutinho will play
        And I sad it was rubish,there is no way Rodgers will play those 3 players,all coming back fron injury,in one game
        Cant believe Rodgers did that
        Love him but this result is only his fault

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

          If not play them at home to villa when play them?
          Liverpool can't win without Sterling now???

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

            Its not about sterling
            Its about starting those in 1 game,it wasnt a good moment
            And result and even more play,that was worst in last 2 seasons at anfield,is a proof that i was right

      6. Phaze 1
        • 14 Years

        Hutton and Moore on the bench.... Villa being solid was unexpected.

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

          Same two on the bench.

        2. The Devil Wears Prada
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          +11

      7. Ted Maw
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Balotelli over Costa is the worst move I've ever made in fantasy

        1. Hansel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          I feel you but it happens all the time, I once transferred out Berbatov and he scored 5 goals that day..

        Final series of Boardwalk Empire starts tonight. can't wait 😎

        1. Chu Young Ping Pong
          • 13 Years

          YES!

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

          Would you suggest watching it from series 1 WR have seen the ads for this series and looks really good.

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

            Loved it. One of the best ever

        3. JT's Dog
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Gave up when I realised there were no jedis in it

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years

          Anyone seen the eriksen goal? Chadli likely to get an assist?

          1. Art Vandelay
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Nope. Chadli was the last Spurs player to touch the ball but then there was a bit of pinball.

            1. Cars and Mané
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 7 months ago

              Fair play. Cheers

          Sorry I thought plenty scout players would have had Costa (c), Pelle, Ulloa, Fabregas, Ramsey, Eriksen, Mirallas, Baines, Bertand, Moore, Speroni - or at least most of them I should say

          Seemed like a lot of popular players done well today.... seems like there's a few low scores out there tho

          villa 10pts 6 shots on target.. stat from 606 🙂

        7. Crouching Tiger
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Expected more from Pieters and Moreno. Oh well, at least they should still have decent fixtures...

        8. Hasselbaink Forever
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Terry & Debuchy get me 1 point

          My two 4m defenders sitting on the bench Hutton and Moore get 11

          At least I got my captain right....

        9. MJ6987
          • 15 Years

          Looking like Southampton got the best end of the transfer dealings with Pool this summer!

        10. Twelve years a slave
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          At least going Moreno over Lovren wont cost financially
          Lovren will go down this week

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

            Baines imo

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

          If you wildcarded and didnt captain Costa your wildcard has been a total non event.

          1. Cars and Mané
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Everything should obviously be judged on 1 week :lol;

          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Have you guys observed this that the urgency to score in any team starts in the final 10-15 minutes when it should be for the entire match.

        16. Lawrø
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          -1pt from my three starting defenders...

          Can anyone beat that?

          with Today's developments, should i still do:
          \Eriksen > Sterling

          1.yes
          2.no

        18. Djerbil
          • 14 Years

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

          54 without Costa. Rooney and AdM yet to play. Could be worse I guess.
