Saturday’s events get underway with a clash between Southampton and Everton at St Mary’s this lunchtime. Both sides are looking for a first win of the new campaign after registering 2-2 draws with Newcastle and Watford last weekend.

The Saints proved a reliable source of defensive returns at home last year, chalking up 11 clean sheets in front of their own fans and conceding a mere 13 times – only Chelsea (nine) proved more miserly.

After netting twice at St James’ Park last week, they’ll be looking to take advantage of a Toffees backline devoid of the injured Leighton Baines. Certainly, given that the visitors managed just two clean sheets on their travels last season, those backing the Saints at both ends of the pitch will fancy their chances of getting amongst the points.

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

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

      Whatever you say.

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

      They will spend their Walcott money on him

    3. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years

      Impossible to do Targett to Lukaku 😉

      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Ditto 😆

      Doubt it'll change today either. Theo and Tekkers will take care of that.

  7. Trigg ⭐️
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    2013/14: Baines and Coleman
    2014/15: Clyne and Bertie
    2015/16: Shaw and Darmian?

    1. boc610
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      united got two cleanies against toothless opposition

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Good protection for the defence and both BAP magnets, though. As well as good attacking play.

      2. The Chosen One...
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        That's what Saints did last season

  8. Texas Pete
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    It would appear that I failed to confirm my change of captaincy from Haz to Roonpig yesterday. May just be a blessing in disguise.

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      100%, unless Haz gets booked, you're at least even.

    2. bacary lasagna
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      But this season everything fails so hazard will get a straight red

  9. Waynoo
    • 12 Years

    my sth defence not looking great

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

    Keep selling Mane and Pelle 🙂 His next two fixtures are Watford and Norwich

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      This, and both have had chances...

      ...and it's only half time!!!

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

    Contemplating this for -8.

    Rooney, Mane, Cedric > Aguero, Barkley, Shaw

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

      No

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Barkley? 😆

    if you watched the southampton game last week you would have known to have kept lukaku

    they were poor in the air and dodgy at the back

    1. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Shut up

    2. denial

    1. TekkersFC
      • 10 Years

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

        Yh, I'm not too worried! It's just frustrating at times

  14. Sepp Blattered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So close to doing -4 hit with Walcott to Payet and Lukaku to Sakho. Just did the Walcott transfer but thanks for taking sense to me FFS 🙂

  15. the Penman

      1. the Penman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

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

      Not giving them the chance to upset me further in them 2 games.

      Gomis and Darmian incoming.

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

    Anyone without a CS Goal or Assist yet this season?

    1. cricketmad787
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      2 assists. Azpil and Rooney

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        so not you then 🙂

      2. dmhomag
        • 11 Years

        Bottom of barrel *scraping sounds*

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

      I have a goal

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

        Of course. With a name like blue toffee...

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

          I own 0 Everton players. That's how little belief I have,

    3. Jay Jay Okocha
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Finished top 100 last year, my only return this far is Cedric's week 1 assist

    4. Patty
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      no CS for me so far, rooney, cedric and lens have got assists though

    5. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      These I have 2/3. Only Rooney & Deeney assist from GW1.
      I do not have Soton players. So hopefully Mane and Pelle fail also second half.

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

    Hi all just joining-- any chance Mane(c) comes good in 2nd half?

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

      he's been very poor so far. pray for mane

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

        Been awful

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

    Everton do have a good midfield, something which Saints might struggle against this season without Morgan. Newcastle dont have the same strength.

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

      Central midfield I mean.

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

      Europa league bound to affect Saints too, Everton last season the perfect example

    I decree that anyone that actually seriously contemplated Lukaku was drunk or under the influence of Marijuana.

    4. Rossamous
      • 13 Years

    5. Parm

    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    but like I said sou defense lost too many important pieces on defense during the offseason to have a solid defense this season

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

      Yeah you said.

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

    Lukakaka punishing all Romelusers

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

      I said you had to be in on Lukaku for the long haul. Fair play for keeping him

      He's still trolling me though

  27. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I presume the 'told you so' folk have Lukaku captain no?

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

      of course 😉

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

      Nah, Mane (c). Still 45 mins left to ensure a double gloat 😉

  28. icywrists23
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I wouldn't be frustrated with Pelle if he didn't get that unnecessary yellow card

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

      Get over it.

  29. footballoholic
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Don't want to make any rash changes. Almost wish there were no price changes in this game.

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

      That would make it nice and boring.

  30. Realdeal14

    10 years, 8 months ago

    Lukaku takes penalties
