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.

    29 pts with Sterling left......

      10 years, 6 months ago

      22. Over the average but absolute rubbish and it's all the fault of Bournemouth, Hazard and Petr Kek

  4. Misunderstood Genius

    Payet getting any bonus points?

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

      One I think.

  5. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Is Payet worth a FT?

    Current midfield ; Haz, Walcott, Hendo, mahrez

  6. HamezMace
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    So it's all down to Benteke, and Sterling to save me.

    Can't believe Sinclair has outscored both Ozil, and Hazard

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

    Anyone hit the 50 mark?

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

      at 40 but Sterling and Benteke still to come

    2. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Yes.

    3. Venom Snake
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I haven't even hit 20..

    4. Huddersfield
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I will do with Gomez CS + 2 bps + Benteke blank

    5. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Kolarov CS, Aguero goal tomorrow and I'll be over it.

  8. Zombie
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Bilic looks like Jean Reno

    1. Billy Ketsu
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Nah, he looks like a young Donald Fagen from Steely Dan.

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

    Any idea if Wijnaldum will get any bonus?

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

        Cheers.

    1. Captain Goodwin
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Cisse, Haidara & Obertan all with higher baps. Also bear in mind Tadic, Pelle & davis for Soton with higher scores.

      Verdict: No Gini baps this week.

      Great goal though 😀

  10. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    So basically, if you don't own Mahrez then it's a poor week

  11. U-jin King™
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    everyone needs to calm down

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

      I'd like to expand on that...

      Everyone needs to calm the f**k down.

  12. Dr Joness
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    My GW2 team
    Myhill (wat)
    Cedric (EVE) Coates (NOR) Jenkinson (WHU)
    Sterling (CHE) Hazard (mcy) Walcott (cpy) Ozil (cpy)
    Defoe (NOR) Pelle (EVE) Rooney (avl)
    That with no transfers. Anything I should change with my FT?

    1. Slam
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Lol@ who Jenkinson is playin 😉

    2. The Banter Panther
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      very similar to mine! Nah man try tough it out for gw2 and use 2 ft for gw4 🙂

      1. The Banter Panther
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

    10 years, 6 months ago

    Which one would you not play next week?

    A) Gomis
    B) J Rod

    1. nolicnosnhoj
      • 11 Years

  14. nikobg
    • 11 Years

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

      I got Coates off the bench for -1 to bring it down to 19 🙁

  15. Cyril Figgis
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Who to get rid of first? Ozil or Walcott?

    1. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Why would you get rid of Ozil?

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

      Walcott.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      The one that's not nailed

  16. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Planning a -4 already and it's only gw 1
    FPL managers should be given a 2nd chance to change their gw1 team completely in gw2.... 😀

    1. heylo
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      It's called a WC

      1. The Banter Panther
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Apply aloe vera to the burn

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

    Definitely WC time

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

      Weak bladder?

    2. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Get the players that did well this week.

  18. Taffer
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    19 with Sterling to play...truly awful

  19. Wirtzle Gummidge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Benched Sakho for Ibe today, I need a return!

  20. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    30 with Milner and Sterling to go

    Bad?
    Decent?
    Good?

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

      why dont you look at your ranking

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

    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

  22. icywrists23
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    28 pts with

    francis to be substituted and Myhill to play

    West Brom will get CS

    1. The Banter Panther
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      wouldnt put it past west brom, quality defence late last season!

  23. shanebuckz
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    How did tadic play. A cheap midfield might not be a bad choice payet atew looked good

  24. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Badly need Moreno to play today.

  25. Ohhhhh Gary Macca!
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Liverpool will win 4-1 .

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      🙄

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

      Benteke Hattrick assisted by Gomez

  26. Guy Demel's SH
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Boshhhhh

    Nothing like an unexpected result to help ease a bad fantasy weekend.

    Can I claim a victory for my article looking at EL qualifiers providing momentum??

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

      No, because none of your players even played on Thursday... 😉

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

    Selling Walcott isn't kneejerk IMO. It is just admission of a mistake.

    1. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Understandable. He was a one-week punt for many anyway.

  28. funnyoldgame
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    "hey Jose, it's Petr, everything's going to plan"

  29. McSauce
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Pelle lost his bonus. Not ideal

    1. The Banter Panther
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I agree, atleast he wasn't your captain unlike me!

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

    Will Oxford rise? or is getting Walcott out needed more?
