With the impact of Sergio Aguero’s four-goal blast reverberating around the Fantasy Football community, we shift to the three o’clock kick-offs and await further points hauls.

How ironic that, on the day that Ageuro would draw level in the race for the Golden Boot, nine-goal Diego Costa is conspicuous by his absence. This time around the talk of injury concerns rang true as the Chelsea hitman is forced to sit out his side’s trip to Palace, triggering the Fantasy Premier League vice captain for many; for some, that meant that Aguero was on hand to sweeten the pill.

While Chelsea attempt to get by without their clinical striker, elsewhere, Fantasy managers will be monitoring events at the Emirates, Goodison and St Mary’s in anticipation of points.

Arsenal, with Danny Welbeck leading the line and Aaron Ramsey back on the bench, face a free-scoring Hull side in a clash that looks set to promise goals. On Merseyside, the Leighton Baines bandwagon prepares to start its motors when Villa pay visit, while down on the south coast, the likes of Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic will have the opportunity to boost their stock with the visit of Sunderland.

West Ham’s trip to Turf Moor and Leicester’s visit to Newcastle round off this afternoon’s action, with no late kick-off to see us out.

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

                Not that clear is it!

  3. SAS

    Who to bring in pelle or tatic? Can't have both.

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Costa to Pelle will be very popular

      1. SAS
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Can't sell costa. He will be back next week.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Tadic after today, his price will shoot up

  4. 1314
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    would you get Tadic to swap with any of ADM-Siggy-Sterling-Fab ?

    1. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Same problem here actually

    2. SAS
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling is the weakest of those. He gets tired easy and Liverpool are not on form.

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Actually Id argue hes the best of those and the best mid to own in the game

    3. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I am planning to swap with Sterling. Only problem is, I will have to do it tonight as I have exact money for Sterling+PvA -> Baines+Tadic

    4. The Iron Tulip
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Same situation. Thought fabs but maybe sterling as pool are pretty crap atm

    5. Mr. Bean
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      3-5-2 and keep all?

    6. 1314
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      the problem here is , Tadic will have 3 tough games after the next 4..and u certainly can't get back any of those (e.g. Sterling) unless Tadic price hike for at least 0.6 without (e.g. Sterling) rising..

  5. Respect My Authoritah
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    56 from 6. Not great judging by what's on here, but still got a few big guns to come

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Similar boat, i really hope it is a good score. surely those without Aguero will struggle to match those who do

  6. gillih90
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    What's the news on Costa? Playing next week or out for long-term?

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Mou wont tell us

  7. FPL Daniel

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No, wouldn't be selling Sterling with the fixture coming

      1. Zombie
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Not sold on them anymore...Southampton cruising whereas Pool is in tatters. Add their midweek fixtures and it doesn't look good

    3. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Why not Sturridge not back now to help Sterling's points and Sunderland have their worst run of fixtures.
      Not a bad shout at all imo.

      1. Zombie
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        thanks mate..that's what I was thinking. Gonna help the TV as well

  19. joinho
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    This is the kind of week you'll see lots of knee jerking espesially if you've not got Aguero or Pelle, who's getting rid of Costa? Will he be back for GW9?

  21. Geordienufc1

    As a nervous fan, if Newcastle concede here I'm gonna explode 😐

  22. Mr. Bean
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    West Ham 4th in the table 😯

    1. Lloyd Xmas
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      They deserve it. IMO

      1. Mr. Bean
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        agreed.

    2. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
      • 13 Years

      Yeah, we keep playing like this then we could be in Europe next season. πŸ˜€

    just got in
    8 goals for southampton?!? have they just been excellent or have sunderland been appalling?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Both. Once it was 4-0 Sunderland gave up

    2. vice
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      A combination of the two IMO, but more the first one.

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Watch Vergini's comical OG and then decide

    4. bunk_medal
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You could say Sunderland chucked a few in themselves, but "leathered a wonder-volley into their own net" would be a better description.

  24. vice
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    What are people with Costa and no Aguero going to do ths week? My strikeforce is Costa - Pelle - Welbeck. Can do Costa > Aguero for free, or any of the other two > Aguero for a hit. I'm afraid we won't get any relevant news from Mou until next week so selling Costa seems a bit crazy with his huge ownership and QPR at home in a couple of GWs where you'll definitely want to (C) him.

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Keeping Costa myself. Unless more serious news on injury. May take a couple of hits for a shuffle and squeeze Aguero in, though the sacrifice that has to be made must be weighed up.

    http://fantasyfootballfix.com/ projecting an overall average of 32, top 1,000 average of 41.

    They also project me to jump from 500k to the top 30k, so take it with a pinch of salt πŸ˜‰

    1. Epic Fail

      I'd rather wait for the update than go on that site.

    • 12 Years

    Do you really need Aguero?

    Is Ivanovic, Di Maria and Welbeck to Chambers, Tadic and Aguero worth a minus 4?

    Got 79 today with no Aguero. Captain Pele.

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years

      In short, yes.
