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.

    the return this week from my midfield makes me want to cry

    1. PSEBJ27

      10 years, 6 months ago

      Sterling is my last hope

    Anyone know why c.palace started mccharty?

      really?

        He asked a question. If he knew he wouldn't have asked. Your response is not needed

      2. peetsku

        10 years, 6 months ago

        such an obvious answer huh? hennessy is owned by more than twice what mccarthy is..

    2. AIRMILES
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I wouldnt read to much into it. I have Hennessey, and will stick with him until I WC.

    Sanchez got to start next weekend, Arsenal must win at Crystal Palace so Wenger will choose his best 11

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

      An unfit Sanchez might not be part of the best starting XI.

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

        He may not completely match fit but Wenger can take the risk to start him

  5. Kshitiz Basnet
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Why is Samchez still markerd as injured??

    1. Kshitiz Basnet
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Sanchez

  6. The Chosen One...
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    are we any clearer to knowing West Ham's first choice centre half pairing?

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

      No, because Tomkins had to play right back.

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

      Reid and Ogbonna for sure

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

    Come on you Red men! 4-1 to us.

  8. icywrists23

    Walcott is starting next week

    A long with Bellerin.

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Like he was starting this week?

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

        why would he be benched again after such a disappointing math. Use some logic.

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

          lol loss* lol@math ,

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Only if they don't pick their best 11

    4. Gashead9
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Best to avoid Debuchy/Bellerin altogether and Giroud/Wally

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

        This

  9. Geordienufc1
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    A Clyne goal (with his obnoxiously high ownership) and Benteke YC blank would just be the icing on the cake for this GW.

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Milner and Hendo YCs foo

      1. Geordienufc1
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Oh yes, how could I forget? 😛

  10. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Doubling up on United defense with the those upcoming fixtures. Chelsea defense looks overrated (Ivanovic is a liability who will be torn apart by Sterling), Arsenal doesn't have a defense, City haven't played but I know too well how they'll be, and Southampton were shocking.

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

      It's one game...

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

      mou will park the bus at ethihad. will be looking to win by 1-0.

      1. PSEBJ27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Won't matter if Sterling goes up against Ivanovic. Sterling brings a new dimension to our game, it'll be harder for teams to park the bus on us

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

      Careful though. Everyone was swooning over the Arsenal defence after the Community Shield; one game later you're dismissing them as an option. I'm not sure where I stand on them myself but I wouldn't get too excited about United's backline after just one game either.

    4. Tiki-Taka
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Just stop

  11. Drinkwater for Real Madrid
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Sanchez is nailed from now on

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Yup. Already brought him in. Going for Hazard-Sanchez-Aguero

      1. Milner4eva
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I'm regretting doing Hazard to Siggy last evening

    2. Carcaju
      • 10 Years

      Your name... lol

    3. super zlatan

      Doesn't take a rocket scientist to work that out.

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

    Planning to shift Kolarov this week I think, no real pressing transfers I NEED to do but that makes sense given I've got Hazard in mid, Aguero upfront too.

    Any ideas? Can't for the life of me find a decent option, my other two will be bloody Coates/Cedric btw. No WH defender pls, I've got Mahrez.

  13. Milner4eva
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    It's.... MILNER TIME!!!!

    1. Hanked
      • 13 Years

      I've backed him for motm at 10/1

      1. Milner4eva

        Good price that

  14. Drinkwater for Real Madrid

  15. Cesc, Drogs & Rock and …

    Glen Johnson is due a left-foot screamer........

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

      this has been the case for several years

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

    To everyone moaning about there scores: the highest owned midfielder to get more than 3 points was Cabaye (8.6%), the rest are a bunch of FPL nobodies. Relax.

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years

      Don't call IcyWrists a nobody.

    What happens to these graphics when the players get new boots later in the season?

  19. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Benteke vs a Glen Johnson defence. This should be fun.

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

      No luck with the Walcott gamble, GB. Was a good shout though

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, I knew the risk. Hazard didn't return so it's fine 🙂

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

          Yeah bullet dodged

    2. Hibbo

      You started well GB?

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Have Mahrez, so not too bad. Benteke and Kun left!

  20. Jazz!
    • 11 Years

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Assisted the assister twice. Created two good chances for himself late on, but was blocked/wide. Think he will come good FPL-wise.

    3. Stimps
