Sunday provides a quartet of matches, bristling with Fantasy talent and the promise of points aplenty.

Three afternoon matches get us underway at White Hart Lane, the Hawthorns and the Stadium of Light, before we take a trip to south Wales as Arsenal and the on-fire Alexis Sanchez crash in at the Liberty Stadium.

The big team news surrounds today’s encounter between Spurs and Stoke, where Harry Kane, priced at just 4.8 in the Fantasy Premier League, is given his first league start after firing nine goals in all competitions. We’ll be monitoring his impact in that one, whilst keeping one eye on Everton’s Leighton Baines’ progress in the clash with Sunderland. Meanwhile, in the Midlands, we can assess Newcastle’s progress as they drop in on West Brom with an array of low-to-mid price differentials on show – not least Saido Berahino.

Once that trio of matches concludes, it’s over to Swansea and Arsenal to see us out, as Sanchez goes for his fourth double figure haul in as many Gameweeks.

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

    Hold Tadic for Villa or sell to Chadli? Was going to sell Siggy to Chadli all week but saved my ft.

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

      Sell to Chadli. I did Siggy to Chadli for this GW.

  3. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Kun + Costa + Baines = Sell ADM or Cesc. But which one?

    1. chrisdale98
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      cesc

  4. Punty
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    http://i.gyazo.com/79cab87172a95c179ff482d7e1db8a65.png

    I would get rid of Moore, Tadic, Marney, one of Forster/Clyne, Sakho and possibly ADM.

    Kneejerk or not?

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

    4. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Bertrand and Tadic to Yun and Sanchez

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years

      • 15 Years

    4. Total Foot 5

    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    whats best:

    1.bertrand + sigur > baines + 4.4 (ameobi) (would double Eve d-fence w/Jags)
    or
    2.cesc + sigur > sanchez + 5.2 (ameobi/other)

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

      yes.

  10. BlueIncognito
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts? Only real problems I see are my Saints defenders' upcoming fixtures but who should I swap them for? 2 FT and 0.0 ITB.

    Forster
    Clyne Wisdom Baines
    Sterling ADM Fabregas Siggy
    Sakho Costa Aguero

    Myhill Duff Hutton Cattermole

  11. Would an idiot do that?
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    People captained Sanchez? 😯

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

      People captained Baines? 😉

      1. Would an idiot do that?
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Touché

  12. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Hutton/ADM > Baines/Chadli
    Bertrand/Cesc > Baines/Chadli
    neither

    1. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      A) Hutton/ADM > Baines/Chadli
      B) Bertrand/Cesc > Baines/Chadli
      C) neither

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

    I have Collo as my 1st sub 🙁

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

      Don't sweat it. You just got unlucky.

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

        Yeah it was a straight toss up between him and Wisdom. Didn't expect it would cost me 14 pts though.

    2. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I thought he stayed back for set pieces 🙁

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

      Face it nobody was gonna play him away anyway. Lucky goal i assume.

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

        Bought him this week.

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

    Hmm, think I need a Lukaku escape plan (as good as this week has gone).

    My team is...

    Bego (McCarthy)
    Baines Clyne Chambers (Duff, Moore)
    Hazard Sanchez Tadic Downing (Boyd)
    Aguero Pellè Lukaku

    0.8 in the bank.

    Thinking Lukaku to Costa and Tadic to Chadli.

    Anything more pressing or better than that, you reckon?

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

      Look like good moves to me.

  15. Legendary!
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Just logged in to see that I lost about 12 points due to my decisions this week.

    Benched Dummet, played Wisdom
    Transferred Chadli out for Downing

    16 points out, 4 points in

    Oh well..

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

    So how is Downing better than Chadli again?

    1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Own both.
      Simples.

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

        Prefer Sakho to Downing so...

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

      Downing in a better team

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

        Better form team. Spurs is in a shite form doesnt mean west ham is better.

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

          i was talking in both ways 🙂

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

          West ham definitely better team

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

      On pretty much anything but shot accuracy

    4. RabMac
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He has better fixtures and is cheaper.

    5. Legendary!
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      True dat

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

    How many game Naughty miss? Dier will play again?

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

      Fck them i think Davies and Dier will start next game.

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

    Montero with his 92 pace

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

      FIFA?

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

        Yeah

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

    60 with Sanchez and Chambers still to go.

    Good? Decent? or Shit?

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

      Good

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

        Cheers mate.

    2. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      average around here.

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

        So looking for big score from Chambers and Sanchez to go rocketing up the ranks. 😉

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Good and Decent are synonyms, no?

  20. The ghost of a Pug's g…

    next weeks captaincy choice...wow

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

      1. The ghost of a Pug's g…
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Hmm costa v aguero for captaincy next week.

        One false move and...

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

    Arsenal singing 'we hate tottenham'

    Really don't see the need, Tottenham are coming like 14th. They are now insignificant

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

      They lack a decent back up song 🙂

      1. SöundLight 30
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Exactly, again, no plan B for Arsenal.

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

      12th

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

      As a spurs fan, it hurts to admit but yeah we are no where near top 8 team. Top 10 even.

    4. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      trying to psyche out siggy

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

        He probably hates Tottenham as much as they do now

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

      Local rivalry transcends league position - wouldn't matter if there was two divisions between them. An Aussie wouldn't understand 😉

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

        An Aussie? 😕

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

          "Team Australia" 🙂

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

          Ah, in regard to my username.

          I just think it's a bit of a small club mentality

  22. Steevo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts appreciated on the following:
    A) Best defender up to 4.8m? Chambers or Trippier?
    B) ADM + Jagielka OR Oscar + Baines?

    Thank you.

  23. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    description of naughton red still doesnt make clear if it was violent conduct or professional foul. which was it? last man offence or just bad tackle

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

      Kind of last man. Best thing was he knew he was getting it but did it anyway.

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I also want to know... now Dier will start again right?

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        dier would yeah. still no sign of walker

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

      Could be both of course

      1. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        i guess

  24. Jay_
      11 years, 5 months ago

      2 points or less from from Welbeck today and it's Bye Bye Welbeck Hello Costa -8

      1. Woy of the Wovers
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Is that the only reason?

        1. Jay_
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Been planning for 3 weeks now but if he scores will make me reconsider and sit tight with team

      2. ddp
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Considering:
        Tadic > Wanyama (for the extra 3 mil funds)
        Welbeck > Costa (for 4ph)

        I'd then have Pelle, Aguero, Costa up front til the week after when I swap Pelle for Sakho.

        Is it worth it?

      3. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Fabregas > Chadli or Oscar to fund Pelle > Costa?

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

          Depends if Fabregas can shake off his hamstring worry, and get himself back out of the double pivot role.

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

          I think Oscar-Costa is the way to go, already have Fabregas-Oscar but gonna move away from Fabregas as soon as he gets that 5th YC

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

            so Oscar ahead of Chadli?

      4. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 14 Years

        i wanna see the wengerpillar

        1. The Bandit

            • 14 Years

      5. U-jin King™
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        who is on pens now that Arteta is out?

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

          Alexis would be my guess,

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

            Very likely, yeah

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

          Alexis or ramsey, ramsey takes them for national team

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

        Impressive stats for Naughton - started 4 games, sent off in 2 of them. 🙂

      7. rickardinho
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        How did Kane look today? The stats in the members area suggest that he was the best attacker on the pitch...
