What a difference a week makes. Just seven days ago to the minute, we were right here totting up points from Sergio Aguero’s four-goal haul against Spurs. Today many Fantasy managers are left gazing on the Argentine’s two-point total at West Ham and regretting transfers and their armband decision. It’s now left to Saturday’s remaining fixtures to sweeten such a bitter pill.

Raheem Sterling will carry the can for some as Liverpool host a Hull City side nursing a lengthy injury list. Meanwhile, down on the south coast, Ronald Koeman’s revolutionsied Saints look to continue their climb up the table as they take on Stoke – Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic the headline acts on show.

Arsenal’s trip to Sunderland and West Brom’s Hawthorns meet with Crystal Palace will see some Fantasy managers relying on output from Danny Welbeck and Saido Berahino. Finally, in today’s tea-time kick-off, it may well fall to Gylfi Sigurdsson to save many a Gameweek total as the Swans host Leicester City.

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

    Wow what a team goal that was!

  2. Sess!
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Outrageously good team goal from real. Benzema scores. 3-1.

  3. OptimusBlack

  4. Billy Gilmore
    • 13 Years

  5. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years

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

    On a wildcard (probably), would you rather have:

    A. Oscar, Walcott & Chester?
    or
    B. Sanchez, Mané & Chambers?

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. SC not pearls before swine
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B for now. Don't think it's quite Walcott time yet.

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

      B by a long shot!

    4. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B. Walcott to early.

      1. KunBaYaya My Lord
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Very poor English ha.

    5. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B looks juicy

  7. Back to Back Ballacks
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Have 4-3 Madrid at 50-1 in this, CMON!

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

    Leicester have been really poor first-half.

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

    Great counter by Madrid

  10. Chambo
    • 11 Years

    11 years, 5 months ago

    Only just walked in since 3pm kick offs but will be interested what the 'stats' say about Siggy this week.

    All I see is him desperately unfortunate not to finish on 7-9 last week and back to business this week.

    Top value, season keeper for me.

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

      Fixtures turn soon, I think there's better value in Chadli with Spurs fixtures?

      1. Baines on Toast...
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        nope. two tough weeks then a great run of games.

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

      This.

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

      I'm not as convinced. To be honest I think he's looked a little anonymous this first half, except for that goal..

    4. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He is really hot and cold. Some game I forget he is on the pitch. But if he puts up points at 6.0 to start the season I can't complain. Most likely a season keeper for me aswell.

    5. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Yup. Keeper

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

    a)Sterling -> Eriksen
    b)Siggy -> Chadli

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Ask again tomorrow

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

        +1 😛

        1. Sess!
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          I currently have chadlii and hoping he'll be good enough to keep until jan WC. Big game tomorrow.

  14. Keno
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Berahino or Sakho?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Sakho easy. Great run if fixtures.

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

    ADM to Sanchez?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Lose sterling instead if you have him.

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      That was my transfer last night 😉

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Braco

  16. Rossamous
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Money no object who is your midfielder of choice in the FPL game?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      At the moment, can't look past Sanchez.

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Di Maria

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

      By saying "money no object" I am assuming you want us to say Sanchez. 😉

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

        Or Yaya Toure..

  17. The Light Knight
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    29 mins from Hendo and Kolarov this week for 1 point 🙁

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      That's why I have never owned Kolarov in my FPL career.

  18. Hibbo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Siggy is a boss pick.

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

      Will get bugger all in the next 3

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

        Umm no

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

          Umm no what?

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

            Everton arsenal. Both vulnerable at the back

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

      😎

  19. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Really need Eriksen and the big differential Costa to save my GW tomorrow.

  20. Cheggers v2
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Siggy (c), YES
    So happy, especially with No Aguero

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I (C) siggy with Aguero. 😀

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He has one assist *slow clap

      1. DRY PEANUT
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Jealous clap?

        1. Sess!
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Little bit 😳

    3. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He still only has one assist. Not great production from a captain. But still 45 mins left.

  21. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Sakho and Berahino, there is no stopping them

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Beranhio will slow up.

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

        not with lei and NEW in his next 2

        1. Sess!
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Fair point but won't bring him in for two games

          1. Konig Luther
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            cool guys like JK, already had him before

            1. JK - Cønt ⭐

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years

    2. World XI

  23. Heels_Over_Head
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Was out all day. Can Aguero still run? (i.e. did his hamstring and body survive?)

    1. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Yeepppp

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years

    3. Mahesh_Kumar

      Yes

  24. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Sakho or Berahino?

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

      berahino on pens edges it.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        But fixtures are not great. :\

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

      Sakho

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I am wondering u didn't answered neither 😀 Haha..cheers, I am thinking same

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

      Sackho

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

      Sakho better stats
      Berahino pens

      Take your choice

  25. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Costa // Aguero // Pelle

    Should I try and fit either of Sakho or Berahino or stick?

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

      Stick

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks

    2. AH 🙂
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Im on the same boat man

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I'm thinking Aguero and Costa as heavy hitters have much more big scores in them than the other two and with Southampton and Pelle's form I can't see any reason to swap.

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

      Pellè for me when he's fixtures turn rock hard.

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

        When they turn ?

        Limp biscuit once they turn imo

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah.

          I mean I'll be selling him for Diafra.

  26. Kerrazy
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    anyone else think chadli>siggy?

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

    Right lads, early thoughts

    Lloris

    Clyne. Tomkins, Naylor

    ADm. Sterling. Chadli, Siggy

    Costa (c) Aguero, Berahino

    Gilks, Boyd, Duff, Caulker

    Want to lose Sterling but as you can see my defence is a total mess this week

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

      Cash itb?

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

        3.3

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

      Did Tompkins have the day off. Your defence will be the same as mine then. But I would have played Caulker if I had him.

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

        seems to be injured not next week will I play Caulker

        (che) (eve) (ars)

        My choice of fixtures

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

          Poor fixtures. I'm selling Duff

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

            for who?

  28. A guy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Why are people even shipping Sigurdsson? He's the main man at Swansea and has always been a really high scoring midfielder at a cheap price.

    1. Ser Football 42
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Thought it was very silly to sell IMO

    2. 1314
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      same with Sterling..

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

      Because he's got 3 terrible fixtures and people think others will do better?

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Surely people have bigger issues than Siggy thou?

        And sure people didn't go with him opening day didn't because he faced United, look how that went.

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

          Nobody in their right mind considered that a tough game. Swansea have been terrible away from home and the home game is Arsenal.

          Does anybody really have any issues?

          1. Hibbo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Issues as in players who are a bigger priority to get rid of than Siggy I would say plenty of people have those issues.

            Personally I don't look at him and think he has to go.

            There's a real vogue in here at the minute for shifting the dream team standard midfielder.

            Who in his price range is worth buying?

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

              Mané will comfortably outscore him over the next 3 imo.

        2. Rats Ass
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Anyone who still has any Liverpool midfield has more urgent issues than Siggy to address, ie me.

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

      Knee jerk reactions to buy today's goal scorers

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

      Tadic,Chadli are a better pick in a better team imo.

    6. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Was Siggy or Sterling - to get Sanchez. Looking like Sterling now

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

    Bony looking arsed. Interesting option.

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

      not for the next 3 weeks

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

        He scores when he wants when on form.

    2. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Pens too......swans fixtures crap though.

    3. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Arsed isn't the opposite of can't be arsed. Arsed means something quite different.

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

        Sorry but I don't take advice from llamas.

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

    Just come on and seen all the Siggy love.

    How many goals has he scored so far?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Zero
