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.

    12 from 5. This is a disaster.

    Wc time?

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

      Calm down....

    2. Il Gladiatore
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Hardly a disaster, most people have less than 20. Captain and all the big dogs to play tomorrow

  2. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    8 from 6 any good?

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

      Top stuff

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

      Dreadful!

    3. Joga Bonito®
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Harsh, the way it goes sometimes. If I hadn't played Mannone instead of Krul is be low too.

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

      Massive green arrow.

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

      I thought I was having a shitter....

      1. The Machine
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        at least only 2 of my front 7 have played, with the captain being a sort of differential

        1. Parm
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Ramsey & Siggy yeah?

          Who's captain?

  3. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Clyne on bench 🙁 Should have played him over Ramsey...

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

      lol

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

        😉

  4. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Dele Alli will play for England! Fantastic young footballer.

  5. Sif
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    RMT and everyone here telling me to play Krul over Mannone

    But as a Burnley fan I knew bettter B|

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

      Duff is essential!

  6. mgilbert86
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Siggy cooling down? If he blanks next week what to do?

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      tbh a trip to stamford bridge and 60 mins with 10 men aren't the best indicators. would hold

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      They played with 10 men for most of the game. Could've easily had at least a goal and assist before the red.

    3. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Not at all. He looked great before they got the red. Sell at your peril.

    4. Calm
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      SELL SELL SELL!

    5. mitro
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      we keep for the next 4 games

    6. Birdman Transfer

    7. Joga Bonito®
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      If I have no injuries this week I'll be saving my transfer, then if Sig and Rambo blank again they'll both be out.

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

      Im holding him til Christmas. Rotates excellently with Naismith

  7. MattysFantasyFooty
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    16 from 5 *cries in a corner*

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Thats not too bad

    2. The Chosen One...
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Sad if true

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

      22 from 6 isn't that much better.

      Rooney (c), Costa, Naismith, Sterling, and Lovren need to save me

  8. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Bony to Welbeck is going to be populr this week

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

      For all 3 active Bony owners

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

        Marvellous

    2. mgilbert86
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      ppl still have Bony?

    3. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      With his massive ownership and all...

    4. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Did Bony to Ade two weeks back, pheww...

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Evs has him

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

      I still think Pelle is better for the next few weeks.

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

        ^ this

  9. Sting
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Is it worth keeping Sanchez or is he injured?

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

      no, and no

  10. 420king
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    6 from 4 but 34 from 7.

  11. Goodfella
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Mannone on for bonus points after the adjustment, what does everyone think?

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

      On for 3 baps 😯

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

        11pts would be wonderful.

      2. Billy Gilmore
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        *2

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

      Not adjusted yet, FT scores I think.

  12. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Alderweireld injury makes the decision to bring Baines in that much easier.

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

      A bit of madness to bring in Baines now, before their GW6 and 7 fixtures, I think.

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Liverpool is a great fixture. Could get something in attack against us.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yes, Liverpool is a brilliant fixture. 🙄

          1. Not Irish
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            You can't defend, mate.

            1. Billy Gilmore
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 5 months ago

              We couldn't defend last year and beat them 4-0. They haven't scored at Anfield for 3 years. It's a horrible fixture for Baines.

              1. Not Irish
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 5 months ago

                We shall see. 😀

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

          ......

  13. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    11 conceded by Green in 5 PL games. Time to give big Alex a go 'Arry 😉

  14. Studgie G
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    PVA with that shot at the end bloody hell thank god....

  15. Geordienufc1
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Predicted points from Ade (C), Rooney, Sterling, Balo, Fab and Terry to come?

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

      784

      1. Geordienufc1
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Sweet, I was hoping for 800, but I'll take it 😉

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

          Haha sorry. You've got some good players to play though, so don't worry.

          1. Geordienufc1
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Cheers - I certainly hope so.

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

    Strikers are fine and De Gea in goal.

    Naylor, Coloccini, Cahill, Clyne, Wisdom
    Lamela, Ramsey, Sterling, Siggy, Marney

    1.8m, 2 ft's
    What would you do?

    Lamela/ Coloccini out for
    Di Maria/ Chambers

    Decent?

    Basically,
    Di Maria or Fabs.. who is better long term?

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

      DiMaria and Fab, lose Ram?

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

        Maybe but can't afford both

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

    Duff for any BAPS? i'm pretty happy with the 6, just being greedy

  18. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Seems like next week is the time to upgrade Naismith....shame I have no money to do so!

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

      this is why I did what I did this week

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Tempted to switch to Ulloa...

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

          this Leicester have good fixtures

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

      I made 2 moves to make money for that actually

    3. mgilbert86
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Naismith keeps rising, if he scores this week he will prob go up by .3

  19. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Over the season I don't see Welbz scoring more than 16 goals. I think Pelle will.

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

      It'd be pretty hard for Welbeck not to score 16 playing upfront for Arsenal.

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

        giroud back after christmas

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

        Giroud got 16 last season.

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

      I think both will score around 12-14. Which is why playing the fixtures game is quite important with them I think.

  20. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    25 from 5

  21. Prince of Persia
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Thanks those guys who persuaded me to buy Clyne instead of Alderweireld.

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

      No brainer. Would have picked Bertrand personally as he gets up the field more and links well with Tadic, but the best value in Southampton's defense is with the FB's and keeper

  22. Mo Mané Mo Problems
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Will 5 players get 3 BAPs in the Burnley match?

    Has that ever happened?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Brown has his nose in front. 5 on 2 but that will almost certainly change.

      1. Mo Mané Mo Problems
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Ah yep, missed that! Soz

    2. Arsenal Deli
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      No. Wes Brown (3), 5 players getting 2

  23. toaster
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Adebayor to Pelle or Welbeck for next week onwards?

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

      Pelle

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

        Yeah QPR he'll surely do well in. Spurs maybe not, but should be goals in that one.

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

      One look at fixtures and you'll know.

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

        True, can see Welbeck rising quite a bit between now and GW8 when I'll likely def. want him though.

  24. The Shoonchy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Van Aanholt with a fantastic long-range effort, hits the post and the keeper and then bounces away.
    Could have been a massive points glut for PVA owners.

  25. mgilbert86
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Think it's mad to sell Ramsey before a london derby game.

  26. Tony Warner Fan Club
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Def WC next week. If Alderweireld is out I'm back to only 1 defender. That defender is Clyne but I can't expect him to keep it all on his shoulders.

  27. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Attacking threat per team for the GW so far....Botton club. Is bottom AGAIN...http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/3846/
    Time for that early season top pick to go me thinks...

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

      Interesting, thanks. More reason to keep an eye on Chadli this week.

  28. Arsenal Deli
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Saying your points total is a disaster with 6 of the big 7 teams still to play is a bit silly....

  29. Calm
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Darn, really would have loved a PvA goal there. Oh well.

  30. sweglet
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    expect big things from sterling and moreno
