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.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Started Taylor, Coleman and Clyne. Going well with 2 so far. I was sure Sunderland would score tbh

          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Without knowing your side I perhaps would have considered the unsexy 4 at the back.

          I expected a 1-0 loss but spirited.

  5. Bartowski
    • 15 Years

    Did Siggy's injury look serious?

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

      See my answer on the last page.

  6. Debauchy

    If you cant get 1 goal at home to Hull then somethings wrong - and been coming awhile.
    Time for Sterling to go . No Sturridge , no candy .

    Hate doing it - had him as a constant over last couple seasons .

    Despite Muppet's mutterings - Sterling to Sanchez going through tonight

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

      Don't listen to muppet, he has united blinkers on.

      2. Debauchy
        • 13 Years

    My team is fooked

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Another -8 for me. 😀

  8. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Too many striker options right now, can some players get injured plz?

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      😯

  9. Sol
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Siggy injured and ADM might as well after Chelsea's game , that means downgrade Baines to (Filipe luis) and get tadic and sanchez (-8) 🙁

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

      Absolutely no need, find a way to take only a 4 point hit.

    2. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      NO

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

      What?

  10. A Defender's Nightmare
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    It just gets worse & worse. No doubt Costa will score brace tomorrow.

  11. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    listening now to the spanish broadcasters and even brasilian. theyre so manipulative when they say rm too potent best players yada yada.

    so convenient. they forget to say that easily the 3 best players in the world outside cr7 are messi, sanchez and debatable neymar. all in barca.

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

      that's nice but the game was won in the midfield which was well bossed by RM

    2. Judas
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      do you mean suarez

    3. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez? Really?

    4. jdoyle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      suarez. not sanchez.

    5. Total Foot 5
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      *sorry, suarez not sanchez ;)...have suarez in my mind to maybe bring into fpl .

  12. HP.
    • 12 Years

    Did the sigurdsson injury look serious?

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

      some ppl said yes and others said no

      😀

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

    wow... this could be a fun-filled -12 week... i'd be good with it... still riding a green arrow train from the outer reaches

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

      Welbeck/ Siggy / Sterling / Moore

      ->

      Sakho / Diame / Sanchez / Chambers

      best part of the season is these first 11 weeks... then i get disciplined and become sad...

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

    I know its early, but might aswell have a brain-storm on possible replacements for Siggy?

    Chadli, Diame, Barkley?

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

      Eriksen, Downing

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

        eriksen is not in that price bracket

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

          fair enough, but it's not a huge restructure. 2 transfers. Long term.

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

      My thoughts are Sterling and Siggy to Sanchez and cheapy as have 2FT

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

        leaving 2 cheapie mids...not ideal

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

        nice

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

      Barkley looking good

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

        didn't play this weekend yet... so a bit early to say that

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

          Yeah i know, meant that he will be one to watch.

    4. Judas
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I already have Eriksen so bit of a pain, otherwise id have Chadlino

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

    Wait..This Leicester team beat United?

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

      No. Was a chap by the name of Clattenburg.

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

        Vardy more like

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

          No, Clattenburg.

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

            No

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

    I need atleast one goal from Di Maria, Coste, Fabregas, Baines and Naismith tomorrow to save my week.

  17. PGR
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Sterling to Alexis, Eriksen, Mane or Silva?

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

      See how Eriksen does

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

    Decision to sell Siggy just got easier.

  19. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    What is prediction for average points ?

    1. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      20 after bonus.

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

        thanx

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

    So glad i avoided the Ulloa bandwagon

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

      Yep

  21. Ohhhhh Gary Macca!
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Lol called Bonys brace, Aguero blank and West Ham win. Should of put bets on.
    @Granville told you Bony would do well.

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

    Naylor currently the only Swans defender not getting a BAP

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Typical

    2. A Defender's Nightmare
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Don't worry. None of them will get when they concede.

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

      Bulsht

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

      None of them will get any by the end of it.

  23. PGR
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    All 3 promoted teams going down this season?

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

      statistically unlikely

  24. UKG
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Gutted for the Siggy owners. I took him out this week (begrudgingly) but needed cash for the Aguero move. Saw his assist and expected more but glad in a way now. Hope it's not a bad one but for me it was him or Sterling....

    Average game week so far.

  25. A Defender's Nightmare
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Surely worst GW of the season so far for majority on here FFS?

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Meh, it's okay. After tomorrow and Monday I'm hopeful enough of getting over 40 at least, not the worst for me, GW 4's score of 42 was my low point.

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

      Bad for all ( most) so all relative

  26. Bobby
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    What do we thing average will be today. Having a shocker and hoping not many have bony or Sanchez!

  27. Adderz
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Do we know if Costa has trained today or not?

  28. KISSES
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Somebody said Jimmy Collins got injured earlier in the west ham game, any truth in that?

  29. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I was a out to post a rant about everyone trying to get Sanchez, thinking that he probably won't score big next week, ala Tadic and Aguero...then I saw that they're playing Burnley at home. HHMMMMM

  30. WDT
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Have no time for a Naylor cs. So many have him, Leicester goal, let's go.

    1. Frank Black
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      So many? You mean 6%?

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

        FFS community love him. Everyone and their dog owns him here.

    2. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      1 in 15 ain't many.
