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

    Dam yaya was in one of my preliminary squads as well.

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

      Probably was in everyones at some point

        10 years, 8 months ago

        he was in my very first one and never again...

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

          same, along with Richards and Gomis

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

    This season has 'Yaya & Ramsey' written all over it...

    FFS Will avoid,
    The casuals will rise.

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      This gameweek* maybe...

    2. Larry Legend
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Lol can't believe I went for 'Arsenal coverage', what a load of tosh! Oh well Yaya is so hard to predict from that deeper role. But he's obviously still a goal threat.

  3. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    No ACON this season...

  4. The Manbearpig
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    That just significantly reduced Aguero's minutes

  5. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I had yaya in one of my drafts about two months ago, surely I'm entitled to at least half his points?

    1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Haha the lengths some people will go to to delude themselves is truly impressive

      1. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        😉

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

    Had yaya in my team until someone said he got concussed and wouldn't start this week. Screw you whoever you are...

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

    YAYA! I'm loving this! What a bargain!

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

    Toure has ruined my llan to get him gw4

  9. The Light Knight
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Yaya so good 🙂

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

    City already look a different class.......Aguero still to be added to this side too.

    I am not a city fan but any football fan has to admire Silva.....what a player and tempo setter.

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

      Silva one of the best, if not the best, 10 in the world football. Mr consistent.

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

        Absolute class

    2. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Has always needed a bit more output from such an advanced role, but is a real star to watch

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

        Agreed in FPL terms he often assists the assister too much

        1. Larry Legend
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Agree totally he's one of the players whose true value is not met in FPL. He's like the polar opposite of Walcott...

    3. Kerz
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Silva is phenomenal: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CL92yy3WIAAocd6.jpg

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

        2% better than Mata

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

    Ok, time to rest Sterling. No conflict of interest involved 😛

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

    Is Mangala nailed on this season?

    1. The Manbearpig
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It's his place to lose imo

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

    The 9.0m Mids are cursed...

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

      Sterling cesc Theo ?

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

        yep

  14. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Yaya 8.5m was so obvious

    We all missed it

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

      We didn't... A lot of us had him in our first few drafts (I certainly did)

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

      He's useless with Aguero in the team.

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

      The pre-season signals were VERY bad.

    4. Baby Face Nelson
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      i have him 🙂

    5. invertebrate
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Speak for yourself.

    6. Larry Legend
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I also had him in my first draft. What did we all do???

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

    The thing that annoys me about Yaya is signing him for your FPL team shouldn't make sense. He's overpriced as a CDM who sits back most of the time. But then he comes up with goals like these.

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

      CDM who doesn't do any defending. What you're describing is his position on the Sky team sheet not his actual role.

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

        He gets them passing from centre midfield usually. Gets second assists for Silva

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

    No need to bring on Aguero 😉

  17. Sp0rting
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Yaya 4.9% ownership.

    Sounds like a little trade in the making.

  18. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hazard to Yaya?

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

      just done it for a -12

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

        Got to be using your wildcard instead of taking a - 12!

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

    Will Sterling score?
    A) yes
    B) no
    C) comment about a crystal ball

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      C

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

    3. Veggente85

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      C

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

      nope, looks sloppy

    5. copps
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      does it look like i have a crystal ball?

    6. PINKFISH (SANCTIONED AND GA…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      K

  20. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So, wait, who was it who said I shouldn't get Yaya + 0.5 instead of Sterling? 😉 Oh yeah, that's right, all of youse :p

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

      So, what, who is it that manages your team? Oh yea, that's right, youse :p

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        *I will not kneejerkWC, I will not kneejerkWC*

    2. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Disgraceful allotting of blame.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Don't I know it 😀

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

      You pick the team, not us 😛

      Free will and all that...

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

      We wanted you to fail.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Clearly.

    5. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I didn't.

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

      Youse? Really?

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Irony really doesn't come through well via the keyboard, goes it? 😉

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          *does it

    7. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      My bad

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        'ts OK, Sterling will bag a brace as well 😉

  21. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So, YYT and Silva are (still) above and beyond Sterling. What was I thinking?

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

    Yaya ruining everything 😕

  23. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Not his Yaya Toreu bs again. That one season was enough.

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

    Walcott to yaya looks like a no brainer

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      What if someone else scores next?

      1. Frank Black
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Walcott to HIM still sounds like a no brainer.

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

        Walcott to him then

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

    Walcott owners will all sell to yaya

  26. Crouching Tiger
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Walcott to Yaya. Tempting.

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

      Lol.

  27. Muffinz
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Got a tingling sensation in my knees..

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

      See a doctor.

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

    The Yayawagon is back!

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

    City to play like this against Chelsea?.. 😉

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

      0-1

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

      a 2-0 win (Ivanovic - Hazard) would be spectacular FPL wise 😛

    3. ChelseaKTBFF
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Better tactician that pulis at the realms of Chelsea 😉

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

    No Kun is good for Ya ya but with kun back next game Yaya is less appealing
