After yesterday’s disappointing start, many Fantasy managers will be looking for some of Sunday’s heavy hitters to come to the rescue.

A couple of 1.30pm kick-offs get us underway. Community Shield winners Arsenal welcome West Ham to the Emirates before Steven McClaren takes charge of Newcastle for the first time in the top-flight as in-form Southampton roll up to St James’ Park.

Stoke play host to big-spending Liverpool in the late kick-off, with Brendan Rodgers’ side looking to immediately avenge their 6-1 mauling at the Britannia in the final league fixture of 2014/15.

    Right, so Stoke to beat Liverpool and WBA thrash City...and this week will go down as the worst Gw 1 in history

      I could actually see that happening, and it would have the added effect of the United fans getting hyped up. 😯

    KGB agent Petr Cech recruited by Abramovich to take them down from the inside.

    Walcott any good against a team with 11 behind the ball lying deep?

    West Ham are the first team that have had the sense to get themselves knocked out of the Europa League before the start of the season.

    Oxford to hold his place in this team?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I'd love him to.

  10. Gimli son of Gloin
    • 13 Years

    Reece Oxford is a 4.0 defender.. I'd nearly get him in for Coates.

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      An OOP 4.0 defender...

    2. FPL Blow-In

      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      You think Coates will be dropped?

      1. Ruth_NZ
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        More likely Kaboul I'd say.

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          O'Shea will probably get ahead of Kaboul was my thinking/hoping

      2. Gimli son of Gloin
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Nah, Sunderland look brutal and WHU look pretty good. Plus banks some money

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah I went Jenkinson from the start for the WHM/BOU rotation. Don't get the CS today but still happy to save the transfer.

    West Ham were 12/1 with Coral before kick off 😯 (so about evens with PaddyPower then)

    1. SamH123
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      12/1 is quite poor, WH were 17+ on Betfair
      Arsenal received some heavy backing in the past day or two
