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.

    are we still unsure who is on pens for liverpool?

    1. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Yes, becasue they haven't had a penalty.

      1. The Nuttmxn
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        This.

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

    Courtois to?

    a) Adrian
    b) Fabianski
    c) Myhill (Pending how he goes against City)
    d) Guzan

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      E) Romero

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

        I was keen on Romero but Utd fans have been consistent in saying that there'll be a new #1 between the sticks before the window shuts.

        1. PSEBJ27
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          I can't see it happening

      I still expect Panti to come good

    3. The Nuttmxn

      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Proper Job, you can tell they've carried their preseason form over into the first Gameweek.

  7. Random Name
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Walcott on the bench today = wenger out

    Stupid move

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

      Massive difference when he came in...
      The stupid move was to bring in FPL a player that's far from nailed on

  9. owls on the up

    How nailed on is oxford do ppl think?

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

      Pretty Nailed on. He looked great today as well, did his job to perfection

      1. owls on the up
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        That's what I thought, can see my wildcarding before the nights over!

    2. Seb Wassell
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      He's not. He's 16 and they want Song.

      1. owls on the up
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        So he's nailed on for now until they get song if they get him!

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

    I think i'll go Mane to Payet barring a season ending injury to Aguero or lescott tommorow. Good Decision? or did Mane look dangerous

    1. Belsunz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      You're bound to regret it. Mane will grt some returns coming fixtures.

    2. PSEBJ27
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I did it..Mane may have been dangerous but Payet was out of this world

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

        That's my thinking, Payet looked unbelievable. I cant see too many WHU goals that he isnt involved in.

    Breadbin when he found out walcott wasn't starting http://giphy.com/gifs/crying-arrested-development-shower-D3ggX9iWqOHza

        I expect you're going to lead the hate campaign since I'm joking with your idol breadbin

          Once or twice is fine but to keep going even after one of your comment been removed is not just joking. It's being obnoxious 🙂

    Squawka Football ‏@Squawka 2m2 minutes ago
    Since signing Marc Muniesa in 2013, Stoke have signed a player from Barcelona on average once every 192 days.

    Stokelona.

    So westham face (lei, bou, new. nor) at home in their next 6 fixtures. Tasty.

    All that planning for this! You can't help but laugh 😆

    1. Wilshere Knowledge

      Last Man Standing was fun while it lasted... 😆

      1. heylo
        • 10 Years

        How does it work?

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Those with the lowest scores each week get booted, until one person remains.

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

            Thanks

      2. Your Mum's Athletic
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        haha what's the current score?

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          19 all out.

          Cut off was 11 yesterday, so I assume I'm out.

          1. Your Mum's Athletic
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Could be tight that y'a never know

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

            So it's the end of each day? Not gameweek?

            1. Wilshere Knowledge
              • 12 Years
              10 years, 11 months ago

              No, end of the GW.

              TM, the one who manages the league, sometimes posts updates halfway through the GW.

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

                Oh right. Cheers for the explanation

    2. dribbler
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      you're right...20 points from 9 players and I captained walcott so I'm having something of a sense of humour loss

      1. Your Mum's Athletic
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        a squad of 50m would have done better, i was annoyed yesterday but just funny now

  18. 1569Tippins
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Never a yellow that

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Dangerous play, yellow card it is

      1. 1569Tippins
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Dangerous? HAHAHA

        1. La Roja
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Hmmm, you are THAT guy.

  19. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Afellay buying into the Stoke philosophy with a yellow card inside the fourth minute.

  20. dribbler
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    arsene wenger...what a complete tool

  21. Tomeister
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Oxford or payet the priority to get in?

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

      Payet

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

      Payet played really well. Definitely THE playmaker at the Hammers.
      Oxford will get some more game time but looks like he isn't nailed.

  22. The Raging Bull
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    the Lovren show is on everyone 😉

  23. Jazz!
    • 11 Years

    Is McCarthy first choice for Palace?

    1. Kevin Twine
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Whilst Speroni is out, it looks like it.

  24. The Royal Robin
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Too early to WC?

    1. Kevin Twine
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      It depends how crap your team is.

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        29 with Sterling left.

        How does that scale on the crapometer?

        1. Kevin Twine
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Everyone is doing naff this week. Depends on the players etc.

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

      i've already hit it

    3. dribbler
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      yeah...it's a long season...don't panic...most of your rivals (us lot) also have low scores

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Having Coates now concerns me, and Wilson looks ineffective, and Bournemouth look terrible in defence too.

  25. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    So vardy is a little racist p*ick then. Who woulda thunk it

    1. La Roja

      Huh?

    2. Psakhotherapy

      Feel bad for Okazaki then

  26. PSEBJ27
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    So is Mahrez on PKs or was it just because he was fouled for it?

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

      Probably the former. But when Ulloa is on (or Nugent for that matter) they'd be on them IMO

    2. Your Mum's Athletic
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I think when Ulloa is on the pitch, it's him
