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 - good play
    Silva- outstanding
    Strong keeper and good defence MC

    3. The Rock

      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yes, Yes and No.

      Just my opinion.

    4. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      maybe only Mahrez of those three

  6. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ok. Courtois to Fabianski and Mane/Özil to Payet sound like good transfers?

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

      no

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

      Keep Mane, sack Ozil

  7. Sverdet
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Sterling-> yaya= madness?

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

      Yes. YaYa went off with possible groin strain.

    2. FortunesAlwaysHiding
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yes, knee jerky.

    3. GREENDREAMS11
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      yes, Sterling should have scored today, he looked pretty lively and it will come for him, no doubt

  8. Jay10
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I feel so amused when people think Mane is good enough to get a haul against Everton but Aguero isn't.

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

      Nobody thinks that.

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

      Didn't realise Aguero played Everton this weekend too.

      Bit unfair on Everton tbh.

      1. Jay10
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Sad you couldn't get it.
        People said Everton is a decent fixture for Mane(GW2),but they also said we should get Aguero after the Everton game(GW3).

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

    143 points, decent start.

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

      seems about the average on here

    2. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      No green arrow, though.

    3. Bertzeiner-m

      haha well done

  10. FortunesAlwaysHiding
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Play Schmeichel (whu) or Butland (tot) this week chaps?

    1. Le _ Professeur
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Tough decision 🙂 .. Personally i think both would be conceding goals 🙂

  11. The Raging Bull
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    come on Silva owners, send this out to FPL.

    Dear FPL

    The goal scored by Manchester City against West Brom at 9 mins was awarded to Yaya Toure. Footage of the goal shows that David Silva was the last Manchester City player to touch the ball, therefore, should be awarded the points. I would be grateful if you could review the replay of the goal and credit Silva with the goal.

    thank you for your attention on this.

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years

      You need to send it to Opta.

      Dear FPL

      Ignore the above, Yaya has just saved Vinyl78LP's bacon
      in a gameweek disaster.

      Shut the GW now and get the Baps down pronto.

    Opinions folks.

    1. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Sorry..

      Been a big backer of my instinct always. Going in with this one. The fixtures plus nailed-on-ness + form influencing me.

      Theo + Ritchie - > Ayew + Payet

      (Only chadli and montero the other ones i am considering)

      Give me a very good reason to not do this. Alternatively i keep the explosive theo on, forget Payet and get Montero in for Ritchie.

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

        Sorry, thought you meant general opinions. I like the look of those moves.

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

      I want Sanchez and Aguero.

      WC.

    3. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Silva Aguero Yaya will all be the main sources of City points

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

    32 pts all out...

    And I'm not actually disappointed. Jesus

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years

      Average is 33.

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

    Can you guys suggest players to fill in the gaps (£15M left to spend)

    Schmeichel/Schwartzer
    Cedric Azpi Gomez Oxford (???)
    Hazard Sanchez Payet Mahrez (???)
    Kun Benteke (???)

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

      Coates, Sinclair, Defoe

  15. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Well that was shite

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

    Where can i get good highlights for all the games?

  17. Mílanista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Better than Rooney, better than Hazard, better than Walcott and better than Aguero. It's Captain Kolarov 😎

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

      🙁

    3. Optimus.

      Nice one 😀

  18. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Well I'll take that (Kolorov owner) looked very solid, got lots of ball and high up pitch. No Aguero damage, although not sure my heart can take much more of not having him. And Silva still looks as though he will make my team for GW 3 at Walcotts expense.

    And a beautiful lumped tv treble.

    So has Silva overtaken Aguero as must have City or even Toure?......

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

    City first goal, thoughts?

  20. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years

    lol @ the people that think you get to play a chip every week...

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years

      Yup. Looooool @ them

    2. The Train Driver
      • 10 Years

      My friend and league rival just called me stupid for "forgetting to play my chip" 😀

      1. Brian (Not the Messiah)
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        did you literally lol @ him?

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

          When I get the chance to do it live I will!

  21. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years

    Statement of intent.

    We're so gonna win the league.

    And KDB to come in as well. 😀

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

    Silva has got me thinking. He was brilliant today. Daaaamn.

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

    If I didn't have Aguero I wouldn't have played Mahrez as my 4th mid.

    Lol at me.

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

    Those of you using your wildcards, how many transfers do you think you will make, aside from thoee to raise team value?

    And those of you starting a new team, wouldn't you rather take hits and sort your team out that way??

    I don't see the point in either, there will be many great weeks ahead, and this weeks scorers aren't guaranteed to replicate that success...

  25. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years

    Good morning dudes and dudettes.

    How did Raheem look? Worth keeping or sell

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

      ran past a defender

      was one on one with the keeper
      couldnt place the ball

      that was the chance of the match which had 3 goals in it

  26. Boyd to Sven
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I set up my team for the first four gameweeks so I'm going to resist the urge to scrap it all after a poor start and see how things look at the end of GW2,...... Hopefully

  27. Sleep Talk
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    No red arrow! 😀

  28. Redhulkster

  29. HP.

  30. ViperStripes

    So how many No. 10s have been classed as Midfielders by FPL Towers?
