Saturday continues with a quartet of matches, featuring Arsenal and an array of budget and mid-price Fantasy talent.

The Gunners trip to a resolute Aston Villa will likely be the headline act on show: Arsene Wenger’s men will look to recover from the midweek Champions League defeat to Dortmund against Paul Lambert’s resurgent midlands outfit. Alongside that, we’ve an enthralling encounter at the Liberty Stadium as Swansea and Southampton prepare to press and weave patterns around the South Wales pitch.

Elsewhere, Alan Pardew will look to extend his stay of execution at Newcastle via a winnable home clash with Hull City, while Burnley go in search of their first three points back in the top flight as Gus Poyet’s erratic Sunderland unit pull up to Turf Moor.

We may well be discussing some very meagre Fantasy points tallies by 4.50, as we prepare to make our way to East London to check in on West Ham’s progress, as they host Brendan Rodgers’ title pretenders, Liverpool.

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

    Bony is another Michu from Swansea.

      Michu was always better

      1. AarÖn Özilski
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I know.

    2. Banana Shaqiri - HMD, PUP

      It's Gomis time

    Knowing my luck even with Swansea 10 men sotton will still concede and tadic will get 2 points.

    Still can't believe Ramsey didn't get any goal or assist of this 3 🙁

  4. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years

    Bony. youv changed since you played in the world cup. you never used to be like this. 🙂 looooool

    Kudos to the guy who said earlier about today been the start of the Ozil wagon

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years

      😎

    In all seriousness, wasn't it just common sense to get Danny Welbeck?

    6.9M for Arsenal's main nailed on striker until xmas is ridiculous value.

    The first success of my season

    1. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      +1

    2. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      🙂

      1. JB_FC
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Still good value at 7.1M I think

    3. The Finnisher
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Love how fickle this place is 😆

      1. FPL Notebook (John)
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I've been raving about him since the day he moved. And then he scored 2 for england. An explosion waiting to happen

      2. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        11 years, 5 months ago

        my favourite is

        a) Find a team that's different

        b) rip it apart

        c) Change it to the template team

        d) Criticize it for being template

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle has better potential over the next 3 games imo.

      1. theloveburglar
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        big time

      2. Tatty Bojangles
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I'll probably still do Welbeck to Pelle this week. Can't ignore Southamptons fixtures.

    5. theloveburglar
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      il reserve judgement on welbeck until after spurs and chelsea

    6. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      The first of a few successes for me. Having a good season and I agree with your sentiments.

    7. vice
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Got him at 6.9 as well but tbh Pelle makes sense too. 😉

    8. rickardinho
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      It is common sense yes, but I think a lot of people are happy with Naismith as 3rd striker for now, and also have Ramsey in midfield as well.

      I'll probably consider him once Arsenal's tough fixtures blow over

    9. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      This place is beyond fickle.. a tough game vs city(where he did well!) and a tough away game in the UCL and everyone forgot about him. crazy..

  7. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    How many assists of the assister has Rambo got?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Aaron Modric

    2. Sz21
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Time to offload??

    3. Retrosynth
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      2

  8. Jake Donahue
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    60mins for Ramsey today

  9. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    are swansea without a striker on the pitch?

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Gomis to come on at half time?

  10. JB_FC
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Is it worth getting Welbeck before he rises more?

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      can't see him having a great next 2 against spurs and chelsea

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      11 years, 5 months ago

      Nah. Give it time. 😉

  11. Revival

    • 13 Years

    Have Norwich in my acca 🙁

    1. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      we've dominated them. First goal was a huge deflection, second was a counter-attack

  12. Wirtzle Gummidge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Spot the Differential. Mr Wilfried Bony.

    1. DIegoCosta19
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      LOL

    2. puddingbrood
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I'm happy I took a hit to switch him for pelle

  13. vice
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    No Southampton defense killed me the beginning of the last season and apparently they're doing it this season as well...

  14. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I wanted an excuse to ditch Ramsey. Although if he scores he will save himself another week

  15. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    What a disaster that Bony pick has been

  16. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    pelle must have 10% ownership just because of his name. graziano pelle

    Friend of mine saw Merson in a Birmingham casino a couple of years back. He spent twenty minutes trying to convince her that her boyfriend had cheated on her on holiday before tumbling onto his ass.

    Then he signed a napkin and kissed it.

    Strange but true story.

    1. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years

      And then he went to film Soccer Saturday

    2. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Now imagine if he wasn't sober

      1. RyanC
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Of course, that cocktail he was holding was non alcoholic.

  18. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    One of my rivals has Sanchez (c) and Welbz (vc)

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez will come on

      1. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Don't think he will tbh. Presumably he got some sort of injury and is just on the bench by default.

        1. Banana Shaqiri - HMD, PUP
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Team sheet error by Arsenal

    Hmmm, doubling up on Southampton defenders may actually pay off today....

    1. Revival

      I'm happy to just have Clyne today

  22. applebonkers

    at least the villa defence thing is dead. still ver vlaar reliant regardless of the anfield game

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      +42.

  23. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Its time to get a SOTON defender isnt it

  24. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I was hoping Welbeck to be quiet one more week 🙁 Too early Danny boy, too early... Tctctctc... So next week Pelle or Welbeck in?

    1. The Finnisher
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Be honest - if he didn't score vs Villa you wouldn't have bought him before Spurs and Chelsea.

  25. Wouter
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Ramsey close again.

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      points dodging bar steward

    2. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Close doesn't pay the bills.

  26. Podge
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Is this the team that beat Liverpool last week ?

  27. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Ramsey could have had a hat trick and some assists. Keep the faith!
