Tonight’s Hawthorns encounter between West Brom and Man City brings the curtain down an opening Gameweek that’s failed to live up to most managers’ expectations. Having chalked up 16 clean sheets in the season gone by, the Baggies will be looking to put the brakes on Manuel Pellegrini’s men, whilst the visitors will be buoyed by a round of results that’s already seen title rivals Chelsea and Arsenal stumble out the blocks.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Yaya never entered one of my drafts

    1. FISSH
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      If he was 9.5 you would have considered him

      1. Tommytour
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Not even at 7 prefer Chadli

      What on earth is happening. I'm clueless. We need a conversation.

      Same here. I did look at him and saw his 8.5 price, but that was about it.

    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years

    City are going to find it tough getting 3 past Tony Pulis' West Brom

  3. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    West Brom 0 shots on goals

    Kolarov will still end up losing that CS 😕

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Kolarov OG would be delicious.

  4. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    OPTA are sticking with Yaya as the first goalscorer.

    No Silva goal on FPL. 🙁

    1. Nice1Cyrille
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

    the week of the trolls. wise fpl managers will just ignore all that's happened and stick to their plan

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I hate trolls.

      1. DickFranDyke

        Lol 😉

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Wise FPL managers ignore nothing.

    3. funnyoldgame
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      exactly. If you've planned right, then your team should be balanced for a good few weeks. One bad week shouldn't negate the plan.

    Hope they get him a huuuuuge birthday cake this year

    Sterling looks like he is trying not to make a fool of himself:

    'Stop - Pass back to silva'

  9. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Triple city attack for GW3/4 onwards looks very tempting...

    1. Tommytour
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yep

  10. Punty
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Commentator just said Yaya loves to play at the West Brom stadium.. scored a lot of goals there..

    1. Coldplay
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Might as well transfer to West Brom then. At least they'll offer a cake.

  11. zotter
    • 16 Years

    How invisible has Navas been in all of this. As usual

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Assist...

    2. Woy of the Wovers

      1. TuttiFrutti
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        No. That's you.

  12. Lateriser 12

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years

      No bloody Sterling either

  13. Veggente85
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    A Kolarov's red could shake the game 😛

  16. BrockLanders
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Citeh look formidable here. My lack of their players may have to be reassessed after this...

  17. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Everyone seems to have forgotten how poor yaya is when kun is on the pitch.

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      all that running about on the pitch kun is doing tonight too......

  18. Fiona B
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling is such a weakling

  19. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    (Smug alert. Yaya was in my first and last draft. Could be on for 55 points this GW. Benched Gomez too.

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      That just means a red arrow next week 😉

    2. BabyB
      • 12 Years

      not according to your linked team

      1. PogChamp
        • 14 Years

        Thanks. Fixed that.

      Where's the other bracket?

  20. Heytch
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    To think that Sterling getting a couple of goals against Vietnam was the reason everyone cheering Sterling not Yaya or Silva right now

    Pre season strikes again

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It was mostly the fact that Milner and Navas had impressive stats playing in the same position and I don't really rate either of them as highly as Sterling at least as an fpl prospect

      1. Heytch
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Navas and the word impressive in the same sentence interesting 😆

        Just can't shoot that Sterling!

  21. @ocprodigy

    The Hawthorns sounds a lot like the Etihad right now, silence.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      very poor dig

    2. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      No wonder city playing like theyre home

  22. Pablitto
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Raheem starts diving...

  23. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Silva pointed to Yaya after the goal was scored

    So clearly the panel will credit it to Yaya, and I'm sure FPL consult this or OPTA when making their decisions.

    Unless the official guys change it to Silva, FPL won't do anything, and clearly Silva has given it to Yaya.

    1. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Typical Silva...

  24. FPLCEO
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    The WBA team looks poor (albeit city look good) and will be scrapping this year

  25. djenzio
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    have we all lost our touch??

    is this the year of the casual?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      GW1 of the casual, the next 37 I doubt it

    2. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yes to both.

  26. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling is doing nothing, Arsenal started poorly: Preseason means nothing

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Pre season means nothing

      Boselli proved that

    2. BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Reckon Sterling will need time to settle

  27. BrockLanders
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Walcott to Ayew or just keep FT?

  28. Wouter
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Surely Kolarov gets a point for that nutmeg?

  29. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Hahaha! Result. Brilliant. 😀

    1. DonTheSpecialOne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      You have Yaya, right mate?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        No, sadly not. But he was the one who I was scared of ...

        1. DonTheSpecialOne
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          I remember seeing him in One of your early drafts?

  30. Sharkytect
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Most common transfer this week will be Sterling > Toure. Easy
