After yesterdayโ€™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 Jamesโ€™ Park.

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

    2/2/2/2 for my midfield, including Walcott captain. 35.5m well spent.

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

      Funny game this.

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

      2 - 2 - 2 - Sterling. i think I know whats coming

    3. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      2/1/4(Haz capt) for me

      I imagine it is the same for most actually

    4. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Lens with 5, Depay with 3.

      I don't like to brag but... ๐Ÿ˜Ž

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Top of the world, that.

    5. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      2,2,2,2,2 for my 45.5m midfield... including captain.

  2. Scoredelario
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    I think the sensible thing is to sell Walcott. He just isn't nailed on and that is no good in ff. Either decision could result in tears though

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

      Your knee is jerking.

      1. Scoredelario
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Not really. If a player isn't nailed on he is no good for ff.

    2. GuyIncognito
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Got to think he will start the next game. I am thinking about bringing him in personally.

    3. alastair
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      After today's result Walcott will be starting

  3. Uncle Ben's Reus
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Why was Oxford playing today? is he nailed on? if so a 4.0 OOP defender for West Ham looks irresistible

    1. terrydingus
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      He was playing all preseason also

    2. alastair
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Looks excellent - particularly for those raising funds to acquire Aguero

    3. nolicnosnhoj
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Playing holding midfielder. He seems nailed on to me. Unbelievable composure for a 16 year old

    4. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Got him already
      Nailed on last on my bench

  4. shimmeronhorizons

    Well I'm looking at a cricket score. Unfortunately, it's for an Australian touring side.

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      60 all out. Well played.

  5. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    -2
    1 - 1 - 1
    2(c) - 2 - 2 - 2
    2 - Aguero - Benteke

    1. tm245
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I have them both so let's hope you end up on 40!

    2. Gaz Downright
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      2
      1 - 1 - Gomez
      2(c) - 2 - 2 - Henderson
      5 - 2 - Benteke

      everything hinged on Liverpool now (ugh)

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

      He was our best player after Ox you numpty.

      1. Gaz Downright
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Ox cost you a goal

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

          Cech cost us the goals.

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

            Swings and roundabouts

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

    Pelle would be on 31 bps without a yellow

    3 points for that foul essetialy

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Wow. I feel that as an owner. ugh.

    1. GrumblyBlowfish
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      My mate tripled up on arsenal mids

      1. alastair
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Jonty posted a couple of weeks ago that he was considering it

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

      Had a double up till Fri night, when I swapped Cazorla to Mane :-/

  9. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Wally out or hold till more news on him edging a start next GW? :/

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years

    2. Jeremiah

  10. Shakshuka
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Lot of talks about hits and WC.. but who really impressed? Who are you rushing to get in?

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

      Aguero if he starts.
      Sanchez too

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

        How

  11. Federico
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    I need to get in Payet for next week.
    Bye bye Ramsey, I don't care if this is knee jerk!

    Midfield four for next week:
    Hazard - Depay - Payet - Mane

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Consider sakho. One might feed the other...

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

        Already have Sakho, but a double up is a good thing with the incoming fixtures ๐Ÿ™‚

    2. Teror
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Watch West Ham lose 1-0 and Arsenal steam roll Palace 3-1. You'll look like a right waste man.

  12. TheSteel

    2. reason17
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Henderson goal and assist could turn this weekend into something acceptable

  14. Pavsboot
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    24 points with only sterling to go. Hoping to break the magic 30... Expecting 25.

  15. Rafabio
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    ONE goal for ARS in their last FIVE home games. Toothless?

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

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

  16. Call Me Old Fashioned
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Walcott to Payet will be popular this week and probably my move too.

    Why wonder if your players will or will not start each week. I am bailing on the Walcott gamble

    1. No Name to Display
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      This!

  17. OliverK
    • 10 Years

    • 14 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Ozil is wayyyy over-rated and is the cause of Arsenal's sloppiness. The end.

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

      Ozil bashing is the reserve of people who know nothing about football.

      1. Mílanista
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        You've read his posts before right?

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

          Nope, I'll ignore from now on! ๐Ÿ˜€

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Nah

  19. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    The only chink of light from that game was that Ozil got 1 more point than Walcott for .5 less ๐Ÿ™„

    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Four weeks of frustration trying to piece together the perfect team now LOLOL @ the top six transferred in midfielders and the top four transferred in forwards. ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜†

  21. Ohhhhh Gary Macca!
    • 11 Years

    37 points with Aguero to play/not play.

    Not a great score, but seems like a low scoring week all round so far.

    1. Taffer
      • 12 Years

  26. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    World class talent throughout my squad and highest scorer is Micah bloody Richards coming off the bench!
