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.

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

    1. mipola

      Funny game this.

    2. SW6
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

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

    3. Scoredelario

      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      Lens with 5, Depay with 3.

      I don't like to brag but... 😎

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Top of the world, that.

    5. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

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

    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, 6 months ago

      Your knee is jerking.

      1. Scoredelario
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

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

    2. GuyIncognito
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      After today's result Walcott will be starting

  3. Uncle Ben's Reus
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      He was playing all preseason also

    2. alastair
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Looks excellent - particularly for those raising funds to acquire Aguero

    3. nolicnosnhoj
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

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

    4. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      60 all out. Well played.

  5. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

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

    1. tm245
      • 14 Years

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

    2. Gaz Downright
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

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

      everything hinged on Liverpool now (ugh)

  6. icywrists23

    ozil needs to be dropped

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      He was our best player after Ox you numpty.

      1. Gaz Downright
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Ox cost you a goal

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Cech cost us the goals.

          1. Debauchy
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            Swings and roundabouts

  7. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      Wow. I feel that as an owner. ugh.

    1. GrumblyBlowfish
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      My mate tripled up on arsenal mids

      1. alastair
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

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

  9. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 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, 6 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, 6 months ago

      Aguero if he starts.
      Sanchez too

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        How

  11. Federico
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      Consider sakho. One might feed the other...

      1. Federico
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Already have Sakho, but a double up is a good thing with the incoming fixtures 🙂

    2. Teror
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 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

  13. Nabzzy
    • 15 Years

    2. reason17
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Henderson goal and assist could turn this weekend into something acceptable

  14. Pavsboot
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

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

  15. Rafabio
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

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

    1. Jeremiah
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      1. The Machine
        • 12 Years

  16. Call Me Old Fashioned
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 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, 6 months ago

      This!

  17. OliverK
    • 10 Years

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

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

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

      1. Mílanista
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

      Nah

  19. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

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

  20. :
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 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. 😆 😆 😆

    I give up.

  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
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Thats a great score! Look at the chaos around you...

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

    A blank from Benteke would suit me nicely

  27. FPLCEO
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

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

    Don't panic guys.....this game is always a mix of champagne and razor blades

  28. terrydingus

  29. Pedram
