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

    1. matt0101
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      basically a 2 man midfield

      1. BlzE_94
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        not a fan of payet and mahrez?

      2. owls on the up

        10 years, 8 months ago

        What did u not see payet play?

        1. matt0101
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          1 game

          1. owls on the up
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Come on u can tell if a players got skills, his touch was class, he looked calm on the ball, he will b great this season! Top player!

    2. owls on the up
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Nice how many changes from ur current team?

      1. BlzE_94
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Current team:

        Schmeichel/Schwartzer
        Cedric Azpi Bellerin STAYLOR Targett
        Hazard WALCOTT OZIL STERLING Wanyama
        ROONEY Benteke WILSON

        1. owls on the up
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          I'd be tempted with wildcard, infact I wildcarded yesterday night!

        2. Rotation City
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          It's not a bad team, you've just been robbed like the rest of us.
          I wouldn't WC, just make some smart transfer decisions.

    3. Rotation City
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Payet- Mahrez - Defoe seems a bit knee-jerky. What's your current team?

  3. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    You'd be a brave man to bet against Aguero scoring now

  4. Optimus.
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Thankfully with the 1.0m I saved choosing Sterling over Silva the extra funds allowed me to upgrade Ruddy to Courtious..

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      *applause*

    2. owls on the up
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Pure tactical genius 🙂

    3. Somalion
      • 16 Years

      😆

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

      so lucky 😀

    5. @ocprodigy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Philosophy.

    6. DonTheSpecialOne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      😀

    7. Crouchy
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Only you 😉 not to be the first or last time this season either 😛

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

    Over next 2 GW's:

    Sterling + Walcott + Rooney

    to

    Silva + Kun + Mahrez

    (-4)

  6. Yome
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So Scoutcast says Walcott starts this weekend, would love that

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

      It's an FFS obsession.

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

        Right, they said that last week 🙂

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

          And it was correct.

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

            Haha they lost the plot, including me

    2. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      He will, but they said that for GW1 didn't they?

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

        Upfront? Gru on bench?

        1. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Hang on. Let me just phone Wenger.

  7. Del Griffith
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Not having a City player in my team has been just awful tonight, hiding behind the sofa is no place for a grown man !

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

      You sir have never had an angry ex.

      1. Del Griffith
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        lol

    2. Giovanni Giorgio
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Having Sterling is worse....

      1. Rotation City
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        This

  8. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero & Sanchez both got a grand total of a 120 minutes rest between them

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

      125 I think.

  9. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hardly recognize Sagna, actually looks normal without the braided hair..

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

      Just thinking the same.

  10. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Nasri warming up, the Sterling party may be over

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Navas off surely

    2. GuyIncognito
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      On the evidence of this game he won't be a particularly good pick this year. Very much playing second fiddle to Silva. Maybe he's one to get in when Silva gets his annual injury.

      1. PSEBJ27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Agreed

  11. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero, Sanchez and Silva completely nukes your team.
    And that's excluding Hazard. This isn't going to be an easy season.

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Always the same

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

      Lol

      Schmichael, Butland

      Darmain, Cedric, Huth, Gomez, Oxford

      Sanchez, Silva, Yaya, Ayew, Mahrez

      Aguero, Sakho, Gestede

    3. Hyperion
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      There are so many midfield options I have no idea who to target. All I know is I'm glad I have Mahrez but everything else is up in the air.

  12. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Don't even care about fantasy at the moment.
    City proving everyone wrong 🙂

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'm loving it, I should be so mad at dropping Yaya but we're playing so damn well

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

      Against their greatest competitors, West Bromwich Albion.

      1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Best performance this weekend. And before now, everyone was saying Brom are good defensively.
        Nice try.

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

          To be fair, I never said that, hence why I avoided WBA like the plague.

          Leicester had a great performance this weekend as well.

          1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Leicester did yes...But this is the best performance of the weekend. Never said we had the only good performance

    3. Hyperion
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It's one match.

  13. PSEBJ27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Iheanacho warming up too!

  14. Essrick
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling goal, Aguero assist incoming...

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

    City defence has been solid tonight.

    Very impressed with the CBs, look brand new and up to the task so far.

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      🙁

  16. Stupendous
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So about Yaya then Stupendous...

    Who didn't go with him after all?

    Stupendous

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      surely the majority will be on him with that price tag

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

    WC triggered. Feels good man!

    1. PSEBJ27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Did it yesterday, I feel invincible at the moment...give me more options hahaha

    2. Yome
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Congrats, enjoy mate!

  18. Bod
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Missed the first 60 minutes, what's the verdict on Toure, could this be a return of the sort of form we saw in 2013/14?

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

    When is the first international break?

  20. Tommy J
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Yaya's been quiet in 2nd half.......

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

      I'm hoping for a HATTRICK!!!!!!!

  21. FantasyFootballNerd
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Getting bored of this. In other news, we've signed Shaqiri.

  22. Would an idiot do that?
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero goal pls

  23. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts plz guys.
    Chadli is better than Tadic and can Mane for points?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Cover*

    2. Mary
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Don't buy a 7m midfielder imo

    3. Hyperion
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I do not understand what that means but I would not get Chadli. Tadic and Mane is a toss-up, Mane more explosive but Tadic probably more consistent. I would probably get Tadic if I didn't already have Mane.

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

      Chadli has good fixtues and more goalscoring ability than Tadic.

  24. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    That City kit doesn't do well with sweat, clings to your body horribly. The average football fan will struggle...

    1. Would an idiot do that?
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yes the important things

    2. Mary
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      You should make an FPL clothing guide and pick out the best fabricated jerseys from a wide range of designers. Example. The Stoke away jersey is very good for holding off sweat yet the home jersey is awful, play Coates at away games!

  25. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling is either really nervous or really shite.

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

      I'm hoping for nervous

    2. Mary
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      im hoping shite

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

    Send him off ref.

  27. FF Dirtbag
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Think I now want silva and Aguero over any Chelsea combination...

  28. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    FFS Sterling can you ever pass back to Kolarov? Racist!

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

    could Kolarov nail down a place? Or do we think Clichy will share game time when he is fit.

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

      i think Kolarov will get a good run but is not nailed at all.

  30. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Silva, Yaya & Kompany back on form

    Scary

    Oh and there's also the small matter of Aguero & Sterling too

    1. pablo discobar
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Lets not forget who they play next. I would not want to be wildcarding into a city v chelsea fixture tbh

    2. Mary
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Joe Hart FTW
