An inauspicious start at Old Trafford leads us into four more Premier League encounters, with all three promoted sides in action.

Bournemouth host Aston Villa at “Vitality Stadium” (no really), Norwich take on Alan Pardew’s emerging Palace lineup at Carrow Road, while Watford make the testing trip to Goodison Park to face Everton.

Leicester and Sunderland complete the quartet, with Claudio Ranieri making his Premier League return in the Foxes hot-seat as he locks horns with Black Cats boss, Dick Advocaat.

These four matches are followed by the late kick-off at Stamford Bridge as champions Chelsea open their account against Garry Monk’s Swansea.

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

    Watford looks great! just don't know because Everton were their opponents or what...They look like who can avoid Relegation

    1. TJ_777
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Think igahlo is better than deeney could be their saving grace

    2. La Décima Chaser
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I would put a serious amount of money on them not avoiding relegation!! 1 game dude, come on!

      1. Eden Hazardous

      they're good they spent alot on quality players if they get another striker they'll stay up easily they're better then atleast 5 teams

                11 years, 2 months ago

                Bournemouth i think will be okay. I also expect Sunderland to get there act together and finish like 14th. I think Villa, Norwich and Watford go down.

  10. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    11 years, 2 months ago

    the moment you have have had a hard day in fpl and you turn on the tv ready to watch your only player courtois play

    1. Just A Hat
      11 years, 2 months ago

      🙁

    2. Alan The Llama
      11 years, 2 months ago

  12. How Mina You
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Courtois injured?! Disastrous start...

  13. Harper_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Was about 70% sure Huth would score this GW

  14. foreverton
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Did anyone watch Norwich? How was their defense? Do they still have CS potential at home?

    1. HVT
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Bad side mate, Relegation beckons imo

    2. BR
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Watched the last 20 minutes or so.

      No CS potential anywhere.

  15. FPLGyarados
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I have Schmeichel + Mahrez and wondering what to do for next week as I have Adrian + Sakho on the bench right now. I can't play everyone! Adrian + Sakho are at home against Schmeichel + Mahrez. It's a pickle.

    1. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      keep + play adrian sakho

      1. FPLGyarados
        11 years, 2 months ago

        That was my plan before today but after Mahrez's performance... I'll wait to see how West Ham do. If they look decent I'll go with them, if they look poor I'll chance my Leicester players.

    2. Van Klinkert Delarosa
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Wildcard.

  16. Mary
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Please HELP with team.

    Option A: Buy a 8 million midfielder and Steven Taylor.
    Option B: Buy a 7.5million mid and 4.5mil defender
    Option C: Buy 6mil mid and def

    1. FPLGyarados
      11 years, 2 months ago

      D: Buy Mahrez (5.5) or Albrighton (5.0) and an expensive defender if you like or save money in the bank for Aguero.

  17. THE Wild Rover
    11 years, 2 months ago

    No Chelsea players.. This will be uncomfortable viewing 😐

    1. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      How did you manage that!?

      1. Fred54
        11 years, 2 months ago

        He didn't select any Chelsea players.

        1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Did not see this one coming.

          Thought it would be more complex.

    2. Milner4eva
      11 years, 2 months ago

      As a Hazard (c) owner, I think Chelsea will struggle to break Swansea down

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Yep, I thought this and so captained Rooney. Will still be nervous viewing.

  18. MisterMaster
    11 years, 2 months ago

    courtois injured in training 🙂

    1. Eden Hazardous
      11 years, 2 months ago

      YES!!!!

      1. Alan The Llama
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Nice reaction

        1. Eden Hazardous
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Said the llama

    2. Royal5
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Finally something to cheer about 😛

  19. Fred54
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I'm amazed SO MANY people have Saturday only players in their teams.

    Sheesh, a whole new set of fixtures tomorrow/Monday to get your hopes up.

  20. Niemi
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Did anyone watch Sinclair and Wilson today? How did they play?

    1. Del Griffith
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Wlson was Ok, was through on goal but saved also had a shot cleared off the line. Sinclair didn't do anything

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Both crap, get good players instead

  21. indiangunner
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard hattrick and 2 assists.... chelsea 5-2 swansea

    1. Fred54
      11 years, 2 months ago

      As a non captainer, assist to an own goal will do nicely...again.

    2. Eden Hazardous
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I would like some of that

    3. Podge
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Their manager is Mourinho, if they get 1 up, that will do nicely.

  22. davies
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard (c) 😎

  23. dmhomag

    Bench Boost + Coates = see you in 2016/17...

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      So long bro!

      1. dmhomag
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Not yet. I got Westwood's 8 points...

  24. Bertzeiner-m
    11 years, 2 months ago

    at this point i would be happy with 50 points

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'd be happy with double digits.

    2. FPLGyarados
      11 years, 2 months ago

      That's my aim every week. I think you need about 52 on average to get 2000pts in total which is my target. Reached it 2 years running now.

  25. AIRMILES
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Courtois getting treatment.

  26. Home Run Baker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 2 months ago

  27. Wouter
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Courtois injured??? At least the Rooney assist was given. 🙁

    1. The Train Driver
      11 years, 2 months ago

      He's still in the first XI!

      1. Wouter
        11 years, 2 months ago

  28. Frank Black
    11 years, 2 months ago

    1. Fred54
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Website pfft, get up early in the morning and check yourself!

    2. Diva
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'll be going there this season, assuming they are keeping up their good work.

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    11 years, 2 months ago

  30. HVT
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Average 8pts so far.

    1. Eden Hazardous
      11 years, 2 months ago
