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.

    Bloody Eriksen AGAIN. I really rate him and am convinced he's a bargain at 7.8m odd.

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

      He does this at least twice every season.

  2. Heydudes13
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Kane 4.8m, 3 starts, 1 goal, 1 assist.

    Can't argue with that. 😎

  3. Sheep Flavour

    Soldado is so poor for a PL striker at a club who want to be where Spurs want to be.

    1. Syd.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He has been a flop

      1. Jax
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Understatement of the year

    2. davies
      11 years, 11 months ago

      It was down to his movement that Kane drove into space and Eriksen scored. Pay attention.

    3. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Spurs as a club is so poor for a club who wants to be where Spurs claim they want to be

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      11 years, 11 months ago

      😀

  4. Sheep Flavour

    Is Kane going to start every game these days? Nailed?

    1. Royal5
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Got to be. Young and lookimg sharp. Unlike the rest of the Spurs forwards.

    2. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I imagine there will be a January signing

    3. Jax
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Yes

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

      He'll play most games.

  5. Punty
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Where is Evertons midfield? Outplayed by this Tottenham-midfield? Maybe not so good idea with 2 strikers

    1. Sheep Flavour
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I think Eto & Barkley want the same space.

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Mason and Bentaleb cover A LOT of ground. They're doing well.

  6. masonwt
    11 years, 11 months ago

    What do you guys think of my team?
    Krul Elliot
    Chambers Taylor Wisdom Hutton Yun
    Sanchez Fabregas Siggy Downing Boyd
    Aguero Costa Rooney
    0.7 ITB

  7. Not Irish
    11 years, 11 months ago

    John Champion all but called Clive Allen tedious just then. 😆

  8. Adds04
    11 years, 11 months ago

    So is it time for yaya yet?

    1. Rupert The Horse

      11 years, 11 months ago

      Has to be. If I didn't do my first early transfer of the season last night, I would get him now.

  9. McSauce
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Might be the wrong time but

    McNair and Costa ---> Baines and Bony OR Reid and Rooney

  10. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Got to say this is a great game.

  11. Mojo Rojo
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Baines to score a penalty then Chadli to come on and score a late equaliser please!

  12. Van Dal
    11 years, 11 months ago

    If somebody held a gun to your head and told you to rightly estimate who will score more points till January out of:

    Baines and Hazard.

    Who would you pick?

    1. 4vets
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Haz

      1. 4vets
        11 years, 11 months ago

        *it happened to me last night

        1. Van Dal
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Lets hope Haz outscores him then eh 😉

          1. 4vets
            11 years, 11 months ago

            I'll never let the f-er find me again!

            1. Van Dal
              11 years, 11 months ago

              Dont worry not planning to be in your neck of the woods anytime soon 🙂

    2. Wilshere Knowledge

      Christ. Baines.

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

      I'm don't deal with terrorists.

    5. QPR expects... glory!
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Hazard

  13. HuttonDressedasLahm
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Nearly did Tadic to Eriksen
    But did Sakho to Austin instead

    Hey ho

    1. Van Dal
      11 years, 11 months ago

      6and half a dozen

  14. Dr Dream
    11 years, 11 months ago

    This Spurs team is playing really well...Is this a watershed moment for Lamela and Ade ?...Eriksen is outstanding in this line up...

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I honestly think having Kane and Lennon in the team lifts the team and the crowd. Expect a good run at home from both.

  15. Sleep Talk
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Dortmund behind after 5 minutes

    1. AlCapwnUK
      11 years, 11 months ago

      i know the Bundesliga is close for the teams aoart from Bayern, but Dortmund are digging a big hole

  16. Back on the horse
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Fffix told me to get eriksen

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I told me to get Eriksen
      Ffs told me not too 🙁

  17. Uber Mo
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Where are my fellow Erkisen owners @?!
    Just seen the score.
    Smug mode...on

  18. HuttonDressedasLahm
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Might free up a "bit" of cash 🙂

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

  20. Wilshere Knowledge
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Soldado is so bad it's almost tragic.

  21. Home Run Baker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Bentaleb a good 5th mid option at 4.4?

    1. JWF
      11 years, 11 months ago

      If you're never going to play him, yes.

    2. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Not 100% nailed is he? That's key for the bench mid. Has to basically be 100%

    3. darko
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He'll be in and out the first 11, depending on their formation.

    4. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      There's been a 'gone fishing' sign hanging on his locker this season so I wouldn't be rushing to get him.

  22. Heydudes13
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Can't help but feel for Soldado.

    1. UnderstandablyDistraught
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I know!!! Glee for me

    2. Somalion
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Feel like I deserve a chance playing for Spurs if he gets one.

  23. QPR expects... glory!
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Oh Loldado!

  24. Adds04
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Is Rooney fit for the next gam?

    1. Adds04
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Game

    2. HuttonDressedasLahm
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He has declared himself fit

      1. QPR expects... glory!
        11 years, 11 months ago

        He has declared himself my Captain 😉

    3. Syd.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      SAF says he is unfit

  25. Somalion
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Oh Dortmund. This is wrecking my head. 😕

  26. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Dortmund seems to have a new goal in sight, bundesliga 2....

  27. Syd.
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Are Spurs burning it up?

  28. Sheep Flavour
    11 years, 11 months ago

        11 years, 11 months ago

        Thats Jan isnt it?

  29. HuttonDressedasLahm
    11 years, 11 months ago

    To think, Spain could start with Soldado and Torres together 😆

    1. A.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      And England could start with Nugent and Heskey, whats your point?

      1. Sheep Flavour
        11 years, 11 months ago

        I think he means Sold & Torres both play for 'big' clubs currently...Has Heskey retired yet?

        1. A.
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Nope, remakably not!

    2. Royal5
      11 years, 11 months ago

      They were both great.

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        11 years, 11 months ago
