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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Pelle yellow card was a 3 point swing, still not at the magic 30 lol

    It's easy to say don't jerk those knees but I can easily see the likes of Bellerin, Walcott and Wilson dropping in price and a .1m drop is the same as .5m this early : neutral:

    1. Pavsboot
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Surely after that effort Walcott will start next week tho.

      WC time? 😀

    3. SW6
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Agree, I know it's knee-jerky but I'm shifting Bellerin

    4. get_in
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Unless you kept 0.5 ITB 😎

    5. waitinginthelonggrass
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I agree

  3. CaTriEm
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Currently on 24 (+1 BP for Tadic?) with Kompany and Clyne yet to play, that about average 'round here?

    1. get_in
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Reckon average is around 19 or so

  4. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Current plans to get Aguero in?

    I need mt consistent captain back

    1. Rafabio
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      None until his first major haul.

  5. Misunderstood Genius
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    So turns out Rooney wasn't such a bad captaincy pick after all

  6. super zlatan
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Reece Oxford - well played lad

    1. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      3rd on my bench 🙁

  7. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Is Moreno on the bench ?

    1. Declan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Yup

  8. Billy Ketsu
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Triffic performance from West Ham, thoroughly deserved the win. Payet looks really good and Sanchez is just amazing. Hits incoming as usual in gameweek 2 I think....

  9. GuyIncognito
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Roy Keane was right

  10. Yome
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Cech dropped next game surely?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      He was dreadful.

      After the lynching Ospina got for half a mistake in half a season, I wonder what they'll say about Cech...

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Exactly, 2 mistakes in his first game, not good for his confidence at all

    2. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Hardly.

  11. Top 210 Club
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Come on Butland cs and pen save!

  12. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Saylor > Oxford or is it knee jerk?

    1. heylo
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Don't think so

      1. heylo
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        as in not a kneejerk. Do it

  13. Elniñorules
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Atleast Arsenal have 3 cups already.

  14. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Oxford and Targett. Neither is the perfect 4.0 defender

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      How did targett play today?

    2. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Cant see Kouyate playing in a AM role against most teams, which will shove Oxford out of the team.

  15. Tiki-Taka
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Has that YC actually lost Pelle 2 bonus? Surely a yellow doesn't lose you that much BPS?

    1. Dr Joness
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Please answer this please! ^^

  16. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Shocking performance from us. Well played West Ham.

    Anyone tell me why Cedric was subbed at HT?

    1. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      He had a yellow, so was a bit of a risk

    2. get_in
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Looked on for a red

    3. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      He was looking very likely to concede a 2nd yellow.

    4. Van Klinkert Delarosa
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Tactical.

    5. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Cheers folks.

  17. Danstoke82

    Merte > Cedric?

    1. waitinginthelonggrass
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      No

  18. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    16 with Kolarov, Aguero, Benteke and Sterling (c) left

    Might turn out to be around average but still 😕

    Going to be a rotten GW2

  19. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Benteke scored 42 goals in 88 appearances for Aston Villa. He could be FPL gold at Liverpool.

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Lambert scored something similar at soton

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        he's 40 years old

      2. heylo
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        False comparison.

    2. SW6
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      With his ownership as high as it is he's not one to be slow on if he hits form

  20. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    So predictable from arsenal. Apart from Sanchez, nobody really tries to dribble intonthe box. All about trying to work their way in

    Walcott to maybe start next week considering girouds rubbish show?

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Walcott will surely start next week. Keeping.

      1. jimmy12
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        i really hope so
        but nothing is certain with wenger lol

      2. Jeremiah
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Really?

      3. Frank Black
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah because he changed the game when he got on the pitch today ;D

  21. jam sandwich
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    who else is in the please blank Benteke and please do well Henderson camp

    1. GuyIncognito
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Could see a repeat of last year judging by Liverpool's line up. How is Can not playing?

    2. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I'm in the I hope they both score massive camp

  22. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Courtois to drop in price?

  23. st4rt__
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    What a terrible time/day to own Ozil, Mane and Sakho, all blanks. Ffs. Step up Kolarov and Aguero tomorrow...

    1. mipola
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      At least you have players left..

      1. st4rt__
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        40pts with them both left.

        1. heylo
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 7 months ago

          Thats amazing in the GW

  24. icywrists23
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Wegner is a damn joke. How do you not start Walcott? Great ending to last season and a good preseason. Very odd.

  25. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Benteke scoring a few would see a few people rage quit.

    Wow, 95% pass completion from Oxford, best on the pitch. Great kid. Amazing PL debut.

  29. waitinginthelonggrass
    • 15 Years

    Ayew, Payet, Wijnaldum, Milner, Chadli....such good value at around 7.0/7.5 this year.
