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.

    A) Payet + Gomis
    B) Ayew + Sakho (+1m)

    Money no issue. Thanks

      Surely money is an issue? I don't understand when people say that.

    I think I'm going to go into the new gameweek happy that a lot around me have given me 4pts or possibly blown their wildcard.

    Lots of talk about signing this player and that and none of them seem to include Sanchez and Aguero.

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

      the knee-jerkers will be the same beasts every week

    I'm going to love seeing Arsenal fans post game reactions on ArsenalFanTV

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

      I'm not. Most of them are morons.

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

      Moh will blame Chelsea

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

        haha yeah

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

    As a City fan, I should be incredibly happy with all the results so far, but no, instead I'm kicking myself over poor performances from Ivanovic, Hazard, Walcott, and Rooney...

    This is what fantasy football does to you, lads.

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

      Agree, Newcastle fan, pleased with a point but gutted Mane did nothing.

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

        Part of you wanted him to score that last minute shot hahaha

    Where does everyone get bonus point info from?

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

      on the FPL site click the score-detailed stats-and look at BPS column

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

    Lost on the bottom of last page: Ozil > Payet that let me do Kun for Roo next GW. Good move ?

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

      yes good!

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

        dunno...look at the fixtures before you decide

    2. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Sure.

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

        Thanks both, not sure if Payet may raise tonight...

  7. Carcaju
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero - Hazard - Sanchez - Rooney

    Doable?

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

      Good luck

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

      sure it is but the rest of the team will be puss

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

      Nope but without Rooney it is!

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

      Yeah I'll drop Rooney for Benteke and it's done!

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

    The worst thing is, every week there will be a cluster of people saying “Walcott guaranteed to start the next game because of xyz”

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

      Here's a new one. Sanchez to start next GW because he's good.

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

        Yeah and expensive

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Why would he not?

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

            I mean I can't knee-jerk him in this week haha

    2. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      He became nailed on and a great pick just because people wanted him to be.

  9. Flynny
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Get rid of Walcott for payet?...

    Or save the free transfer and being kun in gw3?...team is

    Butland ruddy
    Azpi Mertesacker coates huth target
    Hazard Walcott Ozil mane Wanyama
    Rooney Benteke Wilson

    Thanks

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

      Haha everyone is having a horror show this week

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

      Kun. Always Kun

  10. J1F
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Had Oxford on the bench 🙁

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

      how many points did he earn?

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

    The big question this week is Hazard or Sanchez to go alongside Aguero in attack?

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

      Both for me, I'd go Sanchez though

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

      You have funds for Kun and Haz?

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

        they are already in my team.

        question is which big mid....

    3. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I want all three. And I will have all three.

      1. 4vets
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Ditto 🙂

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

        It's doable, I'm working with Hazard-Mahrez-Payet-Sanchez-Sterling-Aguero-Sakho for next week

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

          top forward 7

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

            Yeah, I'm loving it. The WC was worth it.

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

              who's the third forward? wilson?

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

        seriously weakens the rest of the squad...

        what have you got in mind?

        1. Tatty Bojangles
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Loads of great mid priced midfielders help.

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

    Liverpool haven't done anything

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Stoke playing deep.

    2. Joeywho?
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Seem to have trouble getting a shot off

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Benteke isolated

  14. FrancescoLazio
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    This game is rubbash

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

      Snore

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

    I'd say Sanchez was more effective in 15 minutes than any other heavy hitter this weekend.

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

      essential

  16. MFC86
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    wow what an unpredictable start to FPL! My Arsenal big guns have been a let down. Why did Cedric only pay 45 mins for Ston?

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      He was getting skinned by Haidara

      1. MFC86
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        thanks, do you think he's at risk of getting dropped then?

  17. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Scruffy game

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

      Hardly scruffy.

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

    Adam so slow he falls down slowly.

  19. Halleys Comet
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Got to keep him for a few to figure out how much he'll play, imo.

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

    Walcott > Payet?

    Already have Aguero so no plan needed

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Nice move.
      Considering the same.

  21. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Bony my differential for tomorrow. 2.3%.

    Need a performance desperately!

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Sexy pic. Hope it pays off dude.

      1. Ady87
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Oops, I'll change it hahaha

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

      Aguero to start

      1. Ady87
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Aguero owners prefer it when he starts alone but doesn't always happen. Hoping for two up top personally!

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

    I know they've only just played, but what are Theo owners thinking about doing? Give you one more GW?

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

      Payet

    2. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      5-3 😎

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Two transfers are better than one. And I want to see more of the new players.

  23. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Joseph Gomez a good shout? Or will Moreno be back... Any thoughts? 4.5 is so tempting for a LFC defender.

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

      I'm taking him

  24. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    What was Walcott actually like when he came on - will he start against Palace?

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

      Didn't see him once

    2. Your Mum's Athletic
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      the fact you need to ask this question says everything you need to know from a FPL point of view

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I've been at work pal, so totally out of the know... No need to be clever 😉

    3. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Bro he has a touch of a tree... I'd rather kick the ball to a tree and let her control it rather than Walcott controlling the ball... That guy is SO DUDU!!! No idea about all the hype around him I'm taking him off.

  25. super zlatan
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Stoke are well oiled.

    1. Your Mum's Athletic
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      giggity

  26. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Delivery so far from Liverpool is woeful

  27. Your Mum's Athletic
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    I'm the only one in my big cash ML who has Aguero, I don't know how to feel

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

      Like Charlie Adam at a brewery.

      1. super zlatan
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Loool

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

    Need a sterling haul to save my gw and take me over meager 29

    1. MFC86
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      exact same as me

  29. Essan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Apart from Mahrez, none of my players have got more than 2 points. I am consoled by knowing a lot of people will be in a similar boat and many wont even have Mahrez ....

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

      You're way ahead mate

  30. thes7s

    Anyone has a link for FPL achievements spreadsheet? Wanna cross no-goals-from-the-entire team off.
