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.

    Can't believe the oddball that's top of one of my mini leagues has Pelle and Wanyama, the players that robbed me of an incoming 9 for Neil Taylor!

    12. SPorting
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I say you're an idiot every week.

  4. emperikal
    12 years, 1 month ago

    So surely one of Foster or Krul has to go. Which to take out for Forster?

    1. SoapFC
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Krul imo, that's my transfer for this week I think

      1. Essan
        12 years, 1 month ago

        thinks that is what I am doing too

    2. Kerrazy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      U dont fancy they are more solid for the new manager?

      1. emperikal
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Haha possibly but so far this rotation hasn't been working out too well so want to ship one of them out for Forster and double up on Southampton

  5. Kerrazy
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Average scores tonight?

    1. El_Matador
      12 years, 1 month ago

      My balls are hairy, not crystal. Late game hasn't even started!

  6. rickardinho
    12 years, 1 month ago

    SCORE CHECK:

    I'm on 20 from 6 (not including 2bps for Clyne). 20 points seems to be about the norm so far I'd imagine

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

      35 from 5

      1. rickardinho
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Whats your team? Must be something like Forster-Caulker-Duff-PVA?

        1. Billy Gilmore
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Welbeck...

        2. emperikal
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Think he said he captined Welbeck

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

            Yeah, i did. Probably should have said

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

          Bego
          Naylor
          Tadic - Siggy
          Welbeck (c)

    2. Twelve years a slave
      12 years, 1 month ago

      18 from 4 after baps

    3. MJ6987
      12 years, 1 month ago

      32 with estimated baps. 5 to play incl cpt Rooney.

      1. rickardinho
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I've also got Rooney captain. Benched Fabregas for Tadic so really need a quiet game from Fab now.

    4. Geordienufc1
      12 years, 1 month ago

      12 from 5 😐

    5. JWF
      12 years, 1 month ago

      16 from 6.

    6. emperikal
      12 years, 1 month ago

      25 from 5 (well actually 6 but Pieters scored a fat 0) before BAPS. Expecting some for Caulker, PVA and Welbeck

    7. Prince of Persia
      12 years, 1 month ago

      18 from 4 pre BAPS

      1. Prince of Persia
        12 years, 1 month ago

        23 after BAPS

    8. Not Irish
      12 years, 1 month ago

      29 from 5 after BAPs

    9. Royal5
      12 years, 1 month ago

      18 from 5 pre babs

    10. Brutus619
      12 years, 1 month ago

      38 from 7.

    11. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Just 15 from 5, but 5 biggies(Baines, Di María, Sterling, Agüero & Costa) and Naismith to play.

      1. theloveburglar
        12 years, 1 month ago

        and -8

    12. Essan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      28 from 6 after Baps

    13. Birdman Transfer
      12 years, 1 month ago

      14 from 5. Ugly.

  7. Bellerinmondo
    12 years, 1 month ago

    let's move on to next week hearsay - who thinks Costa may be rested pre CL ?

    1. RyanC
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Mou has already said he won't start against Bolton in midweek, so he'll probably start at the weekend.

  8. Twelve years a slave
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Made 80 pounds on betfair. Was worried swansea would lose clean sheet so laid it after 60 min and also backed soton

  9. Pedram
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Fantasy football can be so cruel at times.

  10. The Team Principal
    12 years, 1 month ago

    So benching Ramsey appears to have been a stroke of genius! 🙂

    1. Mull
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Lucky imo but well done.

      1. The Team Principal
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I was panicking every time Arsenal got forward.

      2. Joga Bonito®
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Lucky

  11. Texas Pete
    12 years, 1 month ago

    12 from 4. 15 with Clyne Bonus. That's someway off the 60 I was looking for.

    1. rickardinho
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I think a lot of people are in that position. I'm on 20 but got 5 to play including my best 4 attackers and Rooney captain so still hopeful of reaching 60 however.

  12. The Shoonchy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I benched Clyne and Duff, I'm simply on fire this season. Hopefully this will land me in the 2 million mark

    1. RÏɠBY
      12 years, 1 month ago

      2 million mark.. luxury lad

  13. Dr Dream
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Any Wenger interview re Sanchez?

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

    BAPs for every defender bar Duff in the BUR v SUN game

    I suppose you get what you pay for 😆

    1. Demí
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Did you play Naylor?

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

        nope, 2nd sub

    2. Not Irish
      12 years, 1 month ago

      How is Heaton not on any? 6 saves...

    3. Walsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No way that holds.

    4. dr manhattan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      how do you tell whose got BAPs already?

  15. EmreCan Hustle
    12 years, 1 month ago

    CCC: Clyne, Caulker and Chambers 😎

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

      CCD

      Clyne, Caulker, Duff

    2. Lucy.
      12 years, 1 month ago

      It's all about PVA. 😀

    3. Il Gladiatore
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Clyne, Caulker and PvA

  16. RyanC
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Average likely to be around 10 after these early fixtures. Rule of thumb is the average is what you think it's going to be, minus a few.

    Top maths there...

  17. mgilbert86
    12 years, 1 month ago

    like pelle instead of welbeck over next 2 games

    1. Lucy.
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I'm thinking this and then switch over.

    2. Bellerinmondo
      12 years, 1 month ago

      yeah I have Welbz and was planning to switch but unsure now

      1. Lucy.
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I wouldn't bother going to Pelle if you already have him but I have neither.

        1. Bellerinmondo
          12 years, 1 month ago

          QPR game looks tempting though

    3. RyanC
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. Welbeck better long term, but Pellè good for the next few weeks.

      1. Lucy.
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Glad someone comes from the same logic book as me.

        1. RyanC
          12 years, 1 month ago

          High-logic-five!

  18. Wirtzle Gummidge
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Moreno goal and assit please.

    1. Podge
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Plus CS

    2. Texas Pete
      12 years, 1 month ago

      +however many it takes to make it true.

  19. Matt Sk
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Caulker brought the goodies this gw as expected so he can go?:p

    1. Not Irish
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Was an OG

      1. Billy Gilmore
        12 years, 1 month ago

        It was in all respects but the one that matters.

        1. Not Irish
          12 years, 1 month ago

          If Hazard's wasn't a goal in GW2 no way that should count.

          I'm about to email FPL.

      2. Matt Sk
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I did not see it just came here now

    2. Reedy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Two ways of looking at it...he shouldn't drop any further so that buys us time. But he's done his job now so we're free to sell.

    3. Debauchy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Yep - well that was always the plan for most .

  20. Tony Warner Fan Club
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Its going to take a long while to get over that Alderweireld 0 points.

  21. Goodfella
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Pelle 1st sub, Clyne 3rd sub behind Pieters

    Bloody Bony, ruined Naylor and Siggy's chances of decent points.

    1. Lucy.
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch 🙁

    2. Mull
      12 years, 1 month ago

      If Bony doesn't get sent off I think Southampton lose to nil. You just got very unlucky.

      1. Walsh
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I agree with you there, Mull.

    3. Walsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Aye. Siggy nearly had two assists before Bony got sent off as well. Oh well.

    4. OPTA FPL
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Clyne I can stand but Pelle? I never bench a Fw for a DF

    5. EmreCan Hustle
      12 years, 1 month ago

      You benched Pelle?

  22. Studgie G
    12 years, 1 month ago

    I hate mannone always gets cleanie and save pts when i bench him

    1. Piggs Boson
      12 years, 1 month ago

      NCNB 🙂

  23. OPTA FPL
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Still remember JOA saidd that Heaton is a better option than Krul with those fixtures, but nobody noticed it.. Dunno if he got Heaton in his WC team last Gw? 2 CS in 2 now.

    1. Billy Gilmore
      12 years, 1 month ago

      He has Forster/McCarthy I believe

  24. Heydudes13
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Clyne over N. Taylor, genius. 😎

    1. OPTA FPL
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Shhhh, Triggerlip still around...

  25. Donnie Brasco´s
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Most important is Welbz is on 3 BPS!
    Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  26. Piggs Boson
    12 years, 1 month ago

    @Daniel

    What was your thinking behind Green/4.0?

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      12 years, 1 month ago

      A big 'juuuuuuhhhuuuuuuuu' if it worked out.

    2. denial

      Hee hee.

    3. FPL Daniel
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I was this close to be Guzan/ Given combo. I was on transfers page 11:29 about to confirm it. Had the feeling about Green. I planed to play WC in GW3 and it was 3 weeks based keeper. Will sell him definitely. Was a gamble. Followed the gut. I don't feel bad about that call. It was following hunch

  27. davies
    12 years, 1 month ago

    When do final BAP's get updated?

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      12 years, 1 month ago

      A couple of hours after the last game finishes.

    2. Walsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Should be soon. Usually takes like 45ish minutes until after final whistle for them to update it or thereabouts.

    3. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      How do you think we'll do tomorrow?

  28. JWF
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Welbeck producing the goods in UFPL... so who do I leave on the bench out of these three: Rooney, Costa, Aguero...?!

    1. Billy Gilmore
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Jeez that's as bad as my Ade, Costa or Aguero choice...

  29. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 1 month ago

    How the feck does everyone have 30-odd points? Where the hell are they coming from?

    1. Podge
      12 years, 1 month ago

      remember that only those doing well post 😉

    2. Not Irish
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Heaton Berty Naylor Siggy Welbz

      Could've been 40 🙁

    3. Walsh
      12 years, 1 month ago

      You mean you didn't have Heaton Duff double up + soton defender + Welbeck like everybody else?

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

        Erm....no....

        1. Walsh
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Not many things annoy me more than people coming on here who hardly ever post when they have some magical score and come on here Saturday or Sunday to gloat. Just shameless.

      2. dr manhattan
        12 years, 1 month ago

        get a life then son

    4. Konig Luther
