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.

    Black hawk down...

  8. Journeyguy
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Suprised so many ppul opted not to captain aguero after a CL hatrick against Bayern..

    1. Mull
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Hindsight's always 20/20.

    2. Wings of Steel
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Probability of two hat tricks in a row?

      1. Mull
        11 years, 11 months ago

        That's almost as bad of a comment as his.

        1. Wings of Steel
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Is it ? have a think for a second

    3. Royal5
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Took you the full 90mins to release this statement 😆

  9. Sz21
    11 years, 11 months ago

    So 2 assists for Aguero.
    As an owner but not captainer and no Southampton players I presume thats decent?

    1. Black Knights
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Stats suggest 25% of top 10k don't own at all, while only 10% captained. So it seems good to me.

  10. Stats Don\'t Lie
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Was just thinking of bringing in Clichy. Is this a sign?

    1. GaGa Over Gazzaniga!!
      11 years, 11 months ago

      i too had him in mind but.....rotation risk!!

  11. Bøwstring The Carp
    11 years, 11 months ago

    In all fairness, Southampton do have a man sent off......

  12. Phaze 1
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Boyata an option for the next few weeks if Komps is out for a while?

    1. BeachBadger
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Demi and Mangala after suspension

    2. Give The Todd Some Love
      11 years, 11 months ago

      😆

  13. Black Knights
    11 years, 11 months ago

    So if only 10% of top 10k have captained, and 25% don't own, we're rising than falling if we haven't captained but do own.

    1. Owd Big 'Ed
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks.

      1. Black Knights
        11 years, 11 months ago

        These are stats I've seen on here. If they're true we're fine.

    2. BeachBadger
      11 years, 11 months ago

      depends where that 10% are

  14. Owd Big 'Ed
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Will not captaining Aguero but owning him hurt me or help me this week?

    Mixed emotions...

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Most captained Costa. Will benefit you

    2. Wouter
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Well it's certainly better than not owning him altogether.

  15. Journeyguy
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Tadic goal to finish this off

  16. Dr. Rog
    11 years, 11 months ago

    2 ex arsenal players (1 on trial) scoring for city today

  17. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
    11 years, 11 months ago

    1. Van Dal
      11 years, 11 months ago

  18. tm245
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Joe Hart has some dirt on his mouth.

    1. Not Irish
      11 years, 11 months ago

      That's supposed to be a mustache. I think.

  19. Reed_Rothchild
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Tadic is an entertaining player. Too bad that doesn't translate into fantasy points.

    1. Heydudes13
      11 years, 11 months ago

      So many balls in, so little players heads found.

  20. Heydudes13
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Classic Tadic ball in that. What a useless player.

  21. ktk_interista

    Aguero's first 2 assists of the season.

  22. The Machine
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Soton too impatient after the red

    Inexperience showing

    1. tm245
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Agree. They all just started running up to attack.

  23. Piggs Boson
    11 years, 11 months ago

    But can they get past a Sunderland bus?

    1. Dr. Rog
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Bogey team for city

  24. Green Arrow
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Hart's moustache is so funny 😀

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Dreadful

  25. Last Resort...
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Wild carded last gw, had clichy in the team until the last 10 minutes. Aaaaah, the FPL gods are evil. Also ADM C. : \

  26. Give The Todd Some Love
    11 years, 11 months ago

    'We've only got nine men'

  27. Saniul
    11 years, 11 months ago

    With no Soton players, I'm pretty happy as an Agu owner.

  28. Billy Gilmore
    11 years, 11 months ago

    He's no Kolarov

  29. Not Irish
    11 years, 11 months ago

    So apparently Schneiderlin is Southampton FC.

    1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      11 years, 11 months ago

      So much this.
      They just look a much poorer side without him.

  30. Guy Demel's SH
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Saints continue their poor record against 'top' teams.

    1. McEwan
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Got another Arsenal on our hands
