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.

      who cares?

    5. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Clean sheets not even being taken into account for.

    6. thes7s
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      CS would alter Silva's and Stering's.

    7. The Chosen One...
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Sterling is no where near baps with his big chances missed

      1. The Chosen One...
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        btw Navas 14, Silva 13, Sterling 3

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Yep, no idea where Sterling 13 came from.

  3. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    So...buy or sell?

    Haz + Ritchie > Pedro + Yaya for a hit.

  4. Nickofoz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Frustrating for Mane owners, but it was only light concussion should be fine for next week

    1. dribbler
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      so he can't play for 7 days then?

  5. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Mane to Mahrez, Chadli to Yaya (-4) ?

    1. ARKANOIIDE
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      How do you not have Mahrez? :O

      1. Coaly
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Haven't WCed and used transfers on Payet Gomis Sanchez last week

        1. ARKANOIIDE
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Would get Mahrez and the + cash to improve the team 🙂

  6. Jay Jay Okocha
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    WC this dumpster fire?

    Ruddy, Rudd
    Mert, Cedric, Huth, Muniesa, Taylor
    Hazard, Depay, Mane, Chadli, Bentaleb
    Aguero, Benteke, Sakho

    Or do Mane > Yaya for free

  7. gunnerboy
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    How much is Yaya?

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years

    Has Lukaku and Cedric been playing well? I haven't been able to watch the games

    1. dribbler
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      luk is playing well...unlucky not to score

      1. RÏɠBY
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        lukaku did score.. really tight decision for offside.. plus that freekick was a stunner and had hart floundering as it hit the crossbar
        he looks on it

    2. Nickk
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Lukaku just hit the bar.

  9. Lyonnais
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Does Soton look like scoring ?

  10. The Light Knight
    • 14 Years

    -16 points 😎

    1. Gazpilicueta

  11. Greenbackbøøg…

    How is the southampton game going? Boring?

  12. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Depay has lost the ball a staggering 35 times - more than any other player in the Premier League this season.

    The winger lost the ball on average once every three minutes, and beats Dimitri Payet and Robbie Brady to the unwanted record.

  13. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Could be time to invest in Prödl..

  14. KeepCalm
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    I feel like I have lost so much because of Mane that I want him to repay my faith. Home to Norwich next...

    Can everyone please FLAG false goal shouts.

    I don't know what the mods policy is but it should be a 3 month ban from posting, imo.

            Really? Not surprising I suppose. Orwellian these days.
            I dared to make a mildly amusing post about R NZ and the whole thread was deleted.

              See that was playful, it clearly wasn't done with malice. Yet the lo@ posts remain, stinking up the site every matchday.

    1. Hakuna Juan Mata
      • 10 Years

    Mane -> Mahrez for free?

    Or is there anyone else worth getting? Have 8.3m to spend

    1. Dr Kenneth Noisewater
      • 12 Years

    • Dr Kenneth Noisewater
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Milner & Mane to be banished from my team - their replacements?

      A) Mahrez + 8.9m
      B) Silva + 4.7m
      C) 2 x 7m-ish mid (e.g. Payet + Ayew)

      Rest of attack:

      Sanchez - Yaya - Westwood - *** - ***
      Aguero - Gomis - Sakho

      1. Big Red Dog
        • 14 Years

      If giroud had missed the 2 chances he would be called a donkey, so why not aguero?

      1. Seb Wassell
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Because Giroud can't do what Aguero does.

        Because if Giroud had hit them, one would be in Luton and the other would have careened off the face of an innocent six year old child.

        If Giroud had scored the 2 chances he would be called a donkey

          the polite term is 'low centre of gravity' 😉

        Because Aguero didn't miss. Top saves from Howard.

        Are you comparing Giroud and Aguero? Seriously?

        Giroud is not a donkey. The stick he gets on here is ridiculous. He's a CF and not a striker and there's a huge difference between those two roles.
