The Gameweek rolls on with the final pair of Premier League encounters – both presenting fascinating scenarios, fully stocked with Fantasy talent.

The day begins as St Mary’s where Ronald Koeman’s Southampton face their first grilling as applicants for the role of a top four side. It begins with the harshest of tests against champions Manchester City, presenting a lip-smacking battle between the league’s most potent striker and its most robust rearguard.

Sergio Aguero will be the latest of the Gameweek captaincy candidates to test his mettle, against a Saints back four that has conceded just once all season on home turf. That’s just one of the key battles on show, as City desperately look to seize the opportunity to close the gap on leaders Chelsea following the Blues’ stalemate with Sunderland.

Later today, our focus switches to north London where Everton pay visit to White Hart Lane in a match that pairs two sides with top six ambitions. A host of mid-price prospects are on show, with Fantasy managers holding out for an appearance from Leighton Baines and further encouraging displays from the likes of Christian Eriksen, Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku and Kevin Mirallas.

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

  4. Coaly
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Best move?

    a) ADM to Yaya for free
    b) Terry to Baines, ADM to Haz (-4) . Terry out as I have 3 Chelsea already

    1. Breadbin
      11 years, 11 months ago

      The one that involves a hit.

    5. Holmes

      Yessssssssssss

  6. Punty
    11 years, 11 months ago

    The GW where a good Baines-score has been the most important so far..

  7. Captain Shirokov
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Can't wait for all the stubborn diehard "FPL geniuses" to get left behind by Yaya this year again.

    It was rather funny on here each week when Yaya scored. 😆

    Gem of a comment from Gimli.
    Read the start of the thread above. Too subtle? 😉

    Doesn't Yaya have the ACON soon?

    1. Breadbin

      Shush.

    2. davies

      Aye. And 10.6

    3. Reed_Rothchild
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yes, and Ivory Coast figured to go a long way, so he will be gone for a month

      1. Breadbin
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Quiet you.

    4. Captain Shirokov
      11 years, 11 months ago

      After the Jan WC

  11. Reed_Rothchild
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Julian Draxler to Southhampton in January. They're going to spend some money as they can feel a champions league berth.

    1. Wouter
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Have they got that sort of money to spend?

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He's a sicknote.

    3. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I doubt Draxler even knows where Southampton is.

  12. Captain Shirokov
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Shane Long equaliser coming right up.

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie

    1. Wouter
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Not a fan of both Ings + Austin. Would rather have someone like Bony.

    2. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      i'd rather have costa than Yaya

  14. The Generalator
    11 years, 11 months ago

    This is my dilemma

    Wooney or Toure ?

    Tx

    1. Breadbin
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Which Toure?

      1. The Generalator
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Ya

  15. il Brutto
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Which is the better pair going forward?

    A) Bony and Yaya
    B) Rooney and Nasri/Eriksen

    1. Punty
      11 years, 11 months ago

      a

      1. il Brutto
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah. When are they off to AFCON?

  16. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    11 years, 11 months ago

    What a miss aguero

  17. AlCapwnUK
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Any Costa/ADM price fall expected?

    I prefer ADM and Costa to Hazard and Rooney, but it's an easy transfer to make this week.
    But I only have 0.3 itb, so can't get them both back unless there are some drops

  18. Dr. Rog
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Krul guzan
    Baines azpi chambers (wisdom yun)
    Alexis hazard yayayaya sig (boyd)
    Aguero bony austin

    Perfection?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      No costa

    Hey guys,

    I'm thinking of taking a -4 hit to bring in Rooney (and sell Pelle). Do you think this is worth it and if so which of the following seems best

    A) Sterling > Siggy (Liverpool have some decent fixtures coming up though)
    B Ivanovic > Cahill

    Current team (£1.8m in the bank):

    Begovic (Myhill)

    Chambers - Clyne - Ivanovic - S Taylor
    Sanchez - Downing - Sterling - Wanyama - Cattermole
    Pelle - Aguero - Costa

    Any other suggestions welcome too.

    Cheers!

    Aguero robs his captainers of 8 points and 6 added extra ones.

    3. Breadbin
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Not sure there will be.

  29. supperspout
    11 years, 11 months ago

    is it a genral trend that there are less goals when teams have lots of games in short succession, or the other way round?

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Suarez scored 4 at this time last year.

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Id guess more. Less running equals more open games.
