Newcastle’s narrow win over a faltering Liverpool takes us into a batch of six afternoon kick-offs, with a host of Fantasy talent on show.

They’ll be keen interest on the matches at the Emirates and Stamford Bridge as Alexis Sanchez and Diego Costa sport the armband for an army of Fantasy managers. Both start this afternoon, with major hauls anticipated against the obliging Burnley and QPR defences, respectively.

Elsewhere, there’s some rather surprising teamsheets on show.

Roberto Martinez elects to preserve Romelu Lukaku to the Goodison bench for Swansea’s visit with Ross Barkley recalled and Samuel Eto’o retaining his start after his Turf Moor brace. Leicester boss, Nigel Pearson, makes four changes with Fantasy favourites Leonardo Ulloa and Liam Moore dropped to the timber. Sadio Mane is fit but starts on the Southampton bench at Hull, while Diafra Sakho’s shoulder injury keeps him out of West Ham’s trip to Stoke.

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

    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

  10. Total Foot 5

  11. Heydudes13
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Might start thinking of selling Tadic after LEI, had his 23 point haul now it's just back to the mediocrity.

  12. The Finnisher
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Sigurdsson had a shot!

  13. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years

  16. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Willian has seemingly sent the whole match trying to pass to anyone but Costa

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      he has aguero captain

    2. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He accepted my bribe then

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

      Costa's positional sense is terrible today, espicially when Willian looks to play a pass.

  17. Long Juan Silva
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Diuof goal, Walters assist

  18. The Finnisher
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

  19. 7shadesofsmoke
    • 13 Years

  20. MadridistaRants

    11 years, 5 months ago

    LOL @ all of us.

    Spent the whole week losing our minds over who to buy/sell/captain/bench & then this GW happens.

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

      😆

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years

      Haha so true

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Then dont spend all week on your transfers.

      1. Breadbin
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I agree with this. It took me less than 2 minutes to decide and make mine.

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

        Used my transfer on Saturday but had itchy fingers about the starting XI & Captain.

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

      Think it's gonna be all about tomorrow

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

      Some of us kept the faith with Di Maria and aguero!

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

        Is there anyone who lost faith in Aguero?

    Has begovic made a save this season?

    1. kitier katba
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      yes

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

    Koemans ability to set up the team to play the specific opposition shows the gulf between he and Pochettino (don't wish poch any ill will though)

    Six games on at the same time

    Programming not meant to increase revenues and the tv audience for that third, later time slot. Must be some reason for it … I know the local authorities have much more control over professional sports games than ours do in the States. But if you want a worldwide audience you offer more product. So what's the reason... do the local fans have a bigger say?

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      All games are at 3pm unless on TV. No games can be shown at 3pm in the UK.

      1. Jack Frost
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        You mean local UK TV? Because all games are televised in various parts of the world, we get ALL games in the states. Why can't a game be shown in the 3rd time slot in the UK, it happens on other weekends?

  25. Davido989

    hazard down injured on 57 mins lol banter

    • big oak
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      is it one of those weeks where one captain candidate ends up with a big points haul and however captained him makes a major leap in the standings?

    • Tim Canterbury
