Saturday’s modest points returns pile expectations on to Sunday’s trio of encounters, as an assortment of prime Fantasy assets take to the turf.

It all begins with a pair of lunchtime kick-offs, as Spurs entertain Newcastle at the Lane and Burnley host Everton up at Turf Moor. Fantasy managers will be looking to the likes of Leighton Baines, Nacer Chadli and Christian Eriksen to provide some early cheer, before attentions turn to the main event at Old Trafford at 4pm.

United and Chelsea meet head-on in one of the season’s key clashes. It arrives in time to find Jose Mourinho’s Blues flying high on top of the table, while Louis van Gaal’s United struggle to break out of a state of flux.

The script points to a comfortable away win, with Fantasy managers eagerly awaiting the visitors’ team sheet and the potential “revelation” that Diego Costa defies the claims of his manager to spearhead the Chelsea attack. We’re in for a fascinating afternoon.

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

    LOL @ Costa keepers

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Glad I kept him because Chambers comes off the bench 😀

  15. Obi Wan Elokobi
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    You lot do realise Costa lives in Manchester so drove to the stadium himself.

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

      That's some commute to Cobham

      1. Obi Wan Elokobi
        • 14 Years

        He enjoys travelling.

    On a more important note. What kinda loser is Neville hanging around the team buses.

    1. Timtastic03

    2. Mata-Is-The-Juan

      His rival has (C)oats. I'd have done the same if I had the opportunity.

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

    no Costa good for Hazard owners

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

      don't know if that's necessarily the case - Hazard on penalties either way, and Costa takes up space and potential markers which could free up Hazard. You always want your best players there.

  18. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…

    No Costa means jedinak off the bench 🙂

    Hopefully the "youre r**arded for selling Costa attitude around here can die out now

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years

      You forgot to close the speech marks

    2. Alan The Llama

      Nah

      Hatty against QPR

    4. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      But he's got QPR next week.

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

        So that makes it worth having a £12m player on the bench for 2 weeks? Get more straws, i repeat.

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

          $12m???

          Um 10.5 any second...

          1. Stupendous

              10.9 atm, but whatever. Its still way too expensive and it was still time to sell a week ago

  20. Somalion
    • 16 Years

    No Solskjaer for United will hurt them today.

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

      Good thing Steve Bruce will be kitting up in that United backline!

    Still got a feeling Costa will walk onto the Old Trafford pitch like:

    • 11 Years

    Kane coming off the bench it seems. For Chadli or Ade?

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

    if costa isn't even on the bench, Costa +Siggy => Sakho+Sanchez is definitely on the table for me

    1. Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      losing Costa ahead of home game against rangers 😯

      that kneejerk just broke my nose
