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.

    Whats up with Kane? Doesnt look at all interested in beeing in the box, just drifts wide and when theyre on the break he just jogs after the rest

    1. RÏɠBY
      11 years, 11 months ago

      you are kidding.. he's their best player.. defenders have no idea of how to deal

      1. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Only talking about this second half. Seems kinda uninterested/tired now. I agree hes one of if not their best player in general.

    2. Not Irish
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He's a busy bee.

    3. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Two way player. hes the only attacking player that defends. Lamela, Eriksen and Soldado not so much

      1. TeamSteam
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        True. Energetic type which is good for the team, not so much for fpl i guess.

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

    Sanchez or yaya

    1. Steevo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I'm punting on Yaya, great differential I reckon.

      1. Steevo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Though I also have Sanchez to be fair.

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

      Sánchez

    3. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Sanchez

    4. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Sanchez

    5. Reedy
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Sanchez

    6. RÏɠBY
      11 years, 11 months ago

      yay for the diff.. suarez to contain your position 😉

      1. RÏɠBY
        11 years, 11 months ago

        jebus.. sanchez 😯

        1. Frank Black
          11 years, 11 months ago

          Suarez would be a much much much MUCH better pick, though.

  5. Snikii
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Second try
    Should I keep Sterling for Leicester or get rid at this point?

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

      Probably keep.

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

      Keep. Leicester are terrible in defence. Sterling flirting with a return to form

        11 years, 11 months ago

        My missus said she is captaining him this week

    3. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      If you've kept him this long fr some silly reason than keep vs Leicester and then get rid

      1. Snikii
        11 years, 11 months ago

        yea he has been my biggest mistke this season

  6. Holmes
    11 years, 11 months ago

    2 shots from Coleman, both saved! 🙁

    1. Reedy
      11 years, 11 months ago

      🙁

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Literally every ball is going down the right through coleman

    1. Alan The Llama
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Literally

      1. chrisjdgrady
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Figuratively

    2. Heydudes13
      11 years, 11 months ago

      And subsequently look poor!

    3. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 11 months ago

      usually other way around, strange. id be attacking dier all day

      1. RubeRx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 11 months ago

        and lamela

    4. Royal5
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Generally

  8. Big_Andy_GAWA
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Eriksen burns me AGAIN !!! 1/2 points in 4 games, get rid, then this. He did this to me last season too !!!!!

  9. Alan The Llama
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Good three points for Spurs. Resorting to the reverse jinx.

  10. shady1280
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Is it time to drop Clyne plus Forster. Seeing their fixtures in the coming weeks, it seems a change is needed at the back of the line up?
    Forster
    Clyne Baines Wisdom Moore
    Downing Boyd Sanchez Siggy Fab
    Aguero Austin Costa
    This team just doesnt seem right to me. Thinking of getting in Hazard. But at who's cost.
    ps- 2 FT .. 0.1 ITB

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

    Pages will fly if Baines score

  12. Sweetpea
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Top 10 k average if this stays same? 40?

    1. backstreets
      11 years, 11 months ago

      More I think - 43

    2. chrisjdgrady
      11 years, 11 months ago

      I hope it's lower I'll barely make that. Already dropped 1.7 to 4k 🙁

    3. Snikii
      11 years, 11 months ago

      i would say 42

  13. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Baines won't score or assist.

  14. copps
    11 years, 11 months ago

    is pelle to bony worth -4? or just wait a week?

    1. Sean
      11 years, 11 months ago

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

      Hit

  15. Heydudes13
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Baines will do nothing this match.

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

      Haha. You even believe it 😉

      1. Heydudes13
        11 years, 11 months ago

        😉

    2. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He will score a pen on 87

  16. Pringle
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Suggestions on good defenders for 5,3 or below?

    1. Mull
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Reid

      1. Pringle
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks. Do you know why he didnt play against Newcastle?

        1. Pringle
          11 years, 11 months ago

          5 ycs ok

    2. Boss Hogg
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Clichy

    3. Holmes
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Reid or Taylor

    4. Heydudes13
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Cresswell.

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

      Clichy, Lescott or Jenkinson could work

  17. Pinoche
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Would you play Bertrand or take a hit to do Bertrand to Azpilicueta/Cresswell?

    Rest of the defence

    Chambers - Dummett - Yun - Alcaraz

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    11 years, 11 months ago

    So no chadli

    Interesting. Not 100% then

    1. Heydudes13
      11 years, 11 months ago

      🙄

      Are your days up?

    2. Total Foot 5
      11 years, 11 months ago

      u reckon he gets 70 min next gw or best > sigur ft?

  19. LOCO ABREU
    11 years, 11 months ago

    no chadli then

  20. tm245
    11 years, 11 months ago

    No Chadli

  21. Mr Sarcastic
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Rooney's price going up tonight I suppose, worth a risk to do Costa => Rooney today?
    = how confident we can be that he starts?

    1. Christina.
      11 years, 11 months ago

      Why would you risk 0.1m?

      Wait.

      🙄

      1. Mr Sarcastic
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Because if I do it tonight I get 10.8 forCosta and get Rooney for his current price.
        Tomorrow I'll get 10.7 for Costa and Rooney will be 0.1 more.

        0.2 is big difference if it happens so that I keep Rooney only for one gw.

        1. Christina.
          11 years, 11 months ago

          ..weigh that up with the fact you will prob know the team sheet and if Rooney plays...if you wait.

          I know what I will do.

          1. Mr Sarcastic
            11 years, 11 months ago

            and that is -wait- if I'm not mistaken 🙂

            I'll probably wait and then it's likely that I just keep Costa.

  22. Toonzie

    11 years, 11 months ago

    Will fpl towers unflag chadli after this game?

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

      Should do. He made the bench

      1. Mr Sarcastic
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Didn't work like that for Coleman(?) last year.

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

    Booooooooooooooo. 4 pts paid for Chadli and two weeks later he's not played a minute and has dropped0.1 in price 🙁

  24. U-jin King™
    11 years, 11 months ago

    C'mon Coleman!!

  25. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
    11 years, 11 months ago

    1. tm245

      1. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
        11 years, 11 months ago

    2. Woy of the Wovers

  26. TeamSteam
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Baines doesnt look 100% fit

    1. Chris_White
      11 years, 11 months ago

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

      1. CTID_
        11 years, 11 months ago

        Really?! Wow

    2. Dušan Citizen
      11 years, 11 months ago

  28. The Generalator
    11 years, 11 months ago

    2. The Generalator

  29. Davido989
    11 years, 11 months ago

  30. SweeSwee
    11 years, 11 months ago

    Was there any news on Chadli?

    1. FPL Daniel
      11 years, 11 months ago

      He is fit enough but wasn't needed. He is saved for the Chelsea game. He waits me to sell him in order to bring the pts for my rival 🙁

    2. LOCO ABREU
      11 years, 11 months ago

      he's on bench, probably not 100% fit yet
