After United and Everton got Sunday’s events underway earlier, we now have three more matches to focus on before another international break is thrust upon us. First up, the league’s last two unbeaten teams go head-to-head at the Bridge, as Chelsea take on Arsenal in one of a couple of 2.05pm kick-offs.

All eyes will be on Cesc Fabregas as he plays host to his former club but from a Fantasy perspective, we’ll be looking for Diego Costa to continue a record that has seen him score in every home appearance so far. Danny Welbeck will also be on many a radar as the Gunners prepare for an outstanding run of fixtures from Gameweek 8 onwards.

Elsewhere, Mauricio Pochettino faces a tough task to derail the Southampton bandwagon as his former club roll up to the Lane. Spurs have failed to score in each of their last two home matches and face the top-flight’s meanest backline – the likes of Ryan Bertrand, Dusan Tadic and Graziano Pelle all carry strong form into this one and have the upcoming fixtures to flourish further.

Later in the day, The Hammers welcome QPR to Upton Park in the final match of the Gameweek. Big Sam’s side have impressed in the final third in recent weeks, with Stewart Downing’s new central role and Diafra Sakho’s clinical finishing making them the standout options for the hosts right now.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Got 2FT, very much tempted to do Lamela to Chadli now if he is likely to rise and save the other, with the aim of getting baines in after the international break.
    Thoughts?

      by which i mean after the international games, but in time for the next gameweek

    How annoying is the 'Michael' kid on the Barclays ad?

    1. Jairzinho

      Not as annoying as Ryan.

      Manchester lalala.

      Shut up Ryan!!

        That entire advert needs to get in the bin.

  4. faux_C

    Still trying to decide if I should do Coloccini to Baines, or do Terry to Baines and bank £2m for later.

    If I did the later I can easily get Chadli for GW9...

    1. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I wouldn't get rid of Terry anyway.

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

        Having a 6.4 and a 7.0 in defence just seems a bit risky to me.

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

          I think of Baines like a MID

        2. Simon69
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          You think it's that important to get Baines in anyway? Just think Everton look too leaky.. I know you're talking about attacking returns but they're not their best atm.

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

            Great fixtures though

    2. Galfadez
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Colo imo

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

    Azpi is one lucky SOB, did nothing at all still got more baps than Costa

  6. Fantasyaidan
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    RMT:
    Lloris (Given)
    Clyne, Lovren, Duff, (Wasilewski), (Targett)
    Siggy, ADM, Sterling, Silva, Fabregas
    Costa, Pelle, (Lee)

    Any suggestions? Have a FT.

    Thanks

    All my best weeks this season have been when captained midfielders. Fabregas, Siggy and ADM. Just more points available to them, but obviously more risk involved.

    1. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights

      Da Iawn Granny 🙂

      Can always trust that Welsh boy to come up trumps for united 😉

      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Seem to be better baps magnets too this season if you ask me. (Be interested to see if that's true.)

    2. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      last year a well timed Hazard captaincy could see huge rises up the OR.
      If Aguero or Costa start consistently getting multiple goals a game those gambles are going to be harder and harder to take

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Aguero and Costa need more than a goal to get the baps because of all the stat number builders in the sides they play for.

    How many points did you guys get today?

    1. MagnetBPS
      • 12 Years

      61

      1. Pigvig

        Today?!

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

    Which def for max 6.3 to get in?

    1.8 in the bank

    Have

    Forster / Gilks

    PvA / Wilson / Moore / Hutton / Dummett

  10. rickardinho
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    No idea how this team only got 49

    Begovic
    Taylor Lovren Clyne
    Siggy downing Sterling Fabregas
    Costa(c) Pelle Ulloa

    So disappointing

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      One reason ADM

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

      I ended up with 48 too 🙁

    3. Demí
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      No clean sheets and 1 goal

    4. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      I think most probably would only have 2 of Pelle, Ulloa, Downing playing. With ADM or Aguero making up the difference in points

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

    Fab wife looks hotter than Irina Shayk, agree? SO UNDERRATED

    1. BlueIncognito

      Messi's for me

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

        looks good but tiny for me

    2. RabMac
      • 12 Years

      I've pumped worse.

  12. Zombie

    Seems Chelsea gone back to their defense shut outs again.. Ivanovic - >Baines plans after Burnley match out of the window. Need to find another way of getting Baines

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

      I will be having Baines + Ivanovic by next week 😉

  13. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…

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

      You should have both

    2. BlueIncognito
      • 11 Years

    falcao ownerw, what are you doing with him?

  17. Fantasyaidan
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Is it worth taking a -8/Playing my WC to get lovren+Silva out and get Aguero in?

    Team:
    Lloris (Given)
    Clyne, Lovren, Duff, (Wasilewski), (Targett)
    Siggy, ADM, Sterling, Silva, Fabregas
    Costa, Pelle, (Lee)

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

      No, would do it over 2 weeks

    2. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Aguero will definitely outscore Silva over the season

  19. Tinmen
    • 12 Years

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

      both have easy games. both are hit and miss

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

      neither are safe option but balo is shocking atm

  20. CTID_
    • 11 Years

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

    Still good idea to buy Baines?

    I missed the game today and he missed his PK again.

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

      He doesnt miss pen but today he did, its Big Dave who saved our day 🙂

    Ashamed and embarrassed to be a QPR fan tonight.

    Clueless, spineless, gutless shower of sh*te. Got no business being in this division. We'll be down by Xmas and deservedly so too.

    Absolutely awful.

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

      Before the season a lot of people thought QPR would do finish 9-13.Don't know what happened, it looked like you did great business so has harry lost it?

    2. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      What's gone wrong? I think there are too many players that are past it and there for a last payday in London..

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Wish I knew.

        We have no heart. This is Harry's team so you'd expect more from them than this.

        Rio needs dropping, he's done at this level. Austin needs support and we need to stop the bleeding. Too many soft goals conceded every friggin week.

        1. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Rio will get injured soon enough no doubt. Although Hill and Dunne aren't the quickest, they're two players that would throw themselves in for any challenge or shot.

    3. Debauchy

      Yeah , sorry bud , looks that way

  25. Sweden11
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    My plan was to do Henderson and Naismith --> Boyd and Welbeck.
    Is it still a good move? Or should i change hendo to silva?

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

      Moore or Hutton(or any other defender under 4.5)? Leaving towards Moore as I want to bring in Guzan soon and don't feel comfortable doubling up on Villa defense

      1. BlueIncognito
        • 11 Years

    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

  28. andres
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    the chabers yellow complicated things... Have 2FTs what would you do with this team?
