There are a pair of 4pm kick-offs for our Sunday afternoon assessment, as Everton host Manchester City, while Watford search for their first win against an out-of-sorts Southampton outfit.

The Toffees punished Saints’ new look defence last weekend, ranking joint-second for big chances (three) behind Stoke City (five). The Merseysiders placed fourth for home clean sheets (eight) in the previous campaign but face a tall task trying to pacify Man City’s effervescent attack, considering they put three past Chelsea’s experienced back line.

Saints boss Ronald Koeman will be looking for a big response from his players at Vicarage Road, having watched them ship five goals in their opening two league clashes. No side has conceded more goal attempts from set pieces (eight) than Southampton this season and it will be interesting to see if Quique Flores’ side can look to exploit that apparent weakness.

    58 points with Clyne still to come. I'm very pleased with that! My captain Silva played so well could've so easily scored today.

    yaya or silva on a wc?. . . . have yaya since he was 8.5

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yaya, then invest the remaining money elsewhere

    I guess Kolarov makes up for playing Jenkinson over Prodl and Francis.. Kind of.

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Thats the positive way to look at on the other hand....

    I wildcarded because my team got 0 CS, 1 assists, 0 goals last week an the outlook was bleak.

    GW3 scores:
    team before WC: 59 + Koscielny/Henderson
    team after WC: 50 + Sanchez

    sigh, at least my TV is £1m higher

    1. Jar Jar Winks
      11 years, 2 months ago

      0-0

      Kolarov saved my life

  7. Grounderz

    According to Anewpla Live FPL Game Stats, Sagna is currently on 3 gaps ahead of Kolarov. I hope this isn't going to be it.

  8. Del Griffith
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Watford at home and zero shots on target, not even Burnley were that bad

  9. Bodie

      1. Bodie
        11 years, 2 months ago

    I have a total of 10 points from all of my captaincy choices so far this season.

    It really is not going well for me at all.

  11. ralfb
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Is sotons defence finally looking good?
    Keep cedric or get martin and 0.5 itb?

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I think they played 5 in defence today, so its not easy to judge

      1. ralfb
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Might keep cedric for now

    2. Del Griffith
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Watford had no shots on target so that sums it up really

  12. Mr. O'Connell
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Schm/Schw
    Ivan, Mert, Cedric, Coates, Saylor
    Depay, Ozil, Mane, Mahrez, Suman
    Kun, Benteke, Pelle

    Thats got to be a WC, right?

    1. Corrine M
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Might get away with it but certainly a hit or 2

  13. eish
    11 years, 2 months ago

    silva look worth1.4m over yaya today?

    1. Corrine M
      11 years, 2 months ago

      MoM by a margin silva

    2. TK74
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I mean he is the primary creator, and should have scored, but Yaya is good too

    3. dcarlito
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Quality no look assist from Yaya.

  14. JÆKS ⭐
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Who to win this one:

    A) Sanchez

    B) Benteke + 3

    1. JaydenLFC87
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I have both to play

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        11 years, 2 months ago

  15. JaydenLFC87
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Would anyone take a -8 hit to get Pedro and Kolarov in this week???

    1. mipola
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Of course. They scored well this week and surely they will score next week and hit will be justified.

      1. JaydenLFC87
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Is this sarcasm????

        1. Make United Great Again
          11 years, 2 months ago

          It is.

        2. mipola
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Definitely not!

    2. TK74
      11 years, 2 months ago

      if you think pedro can get at least an assist

      1. JaydenLFC87
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I will be taking Payet out for Pedro

  16. Make United Great Again
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A. Hazard Wilson
    B. Pedro Gomis

    1. Dutte
      11 years, 2 months ago

  17. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I will never look at the captain poll on this site because three weeks in a row your top candidates have blanked. Stupid people everywhere.

    1. mipola
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Bad luck. Not stupid people.

      1. BLACKSHEEP
        11 years, 2 months ago

        STUPID PEOPLE I TELL YOU!

  18. JaydenLFC87
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I'm thinking about a -8 hit this week. Going to bench boost and hope this compensates. Another reason I am doing this is not sure when I will have all 15 players playing again..

    1. Erdinger
      11 years, 2 months ago

      question; is there a limit on how much a players price rises overnight? (eg. callum wilson on 55656. transfers in round. will he go up 0.1 or 0.2?)

      1. Rossamous
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Only one price rise or fall per day up to three max per week

  19. ralfb
    11 years, 2 months ago

  21. Jay Jay Okocha

      Vote for Pedro
