Attentions now turn to the Etihad where Pep Guardiola makes his Premier League bow.

David Moyes’ Sunderland are the guests and potential party poopers, although the odds do seem stacked against them.

The Black Cats are in transition under their new manager, while City boast such attacking riches there can be no doubt that they head into today’s clash as overwhelming favourites.

Expectant Fantasy managers will be looking to Sergio Aguero to capitlise – the Argentine heads into the teatime kick-off as the most popular captain choice in the Gameweek and with over 40% ownership.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years

      Well above average

      1. Eden Azzzar
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        The bench points though

        1. Gunners for Lyfe
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          playing Fletcher over Redmond? eeks

          1. Eden Azzzar
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Server was down couldn't change them

    2. Goaldigger
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Probs not too far from average with those still to go.

    3. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      It's only Gw1 pal, another 37 to go.

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

    Anyone scoring over 20 is probably safe for LMS.
    Plenty of time to enter.

  5. Del Griffith

    40 post baps with 3 to go, Meh

    1. Flynny

    2. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Huh?

    2. Goaldigger
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No, 9 with bonus

  7. Calculated Risks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    8 years playing and usually first week is awful, think my highest is about 550,000 week one. Defo best that today so I'm happy

  8. Rath
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I think we all can agree GW1 this season has gone better than last season! 🙂

    1. Eden Azzzar
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Not for everyone

      1. Rath
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        How did it go for you, mate?

  9. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    44 with 4 to play. That goes down as a decent start I think.

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Very solid.

    2. Canadian Football
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      not bad granny. 36 with 5 to play here

    3. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Granville is BACK with a BANG!

  10. Keno
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    47 with Sanchez, Hazard, Valencia, and Ibra to play!

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Woah

  11. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Best 1st GW for a while but I always shoot myself in the foot with last minute tinkering.

    Lamela + Ibra > Vardy + Alli...

    Cue Ibra brace.

    1. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      That was a good call still. Don't feel too bad about it

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I have been pushing Lamela all pre-season so am a bit annoyed with myself. Stuck with Redmond though so not all bad!

        1. adey70
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Swapped Evans, Redmond and Barkley, who I'd had for weeks, to Stones, Deloufeu and Lamela. Swings and roundabouts of pre-season, eh?

  12. Canadian Football
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    anyone know the avg post baps ?

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      20 according to FFix, but seems suspiciously low.

      1. Canadian Football
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        hmmmm....might be pre baps?

        1. Art Vandelay
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Nope post baps (excluding Kun's, so probably 23 as TM says below)

          Lots of players to come I suspect. Maybe 4-5.

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

      About 23

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yep, you are right. FFix has not allocated Kun's gaps yet.

  13. Ryan Naysmith
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    46 post baps and 3 to go

    1. Eden Azzzar
      • 10 Years

      Good start

    1. Eden Azzzar
      • 10 Years

      9 ahead of me good job

      1. Magic Man

  14. seanie3

    How did gray play for Burnley was going to go with negredo but thought burnely had better fixtures

  15. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    49 i think
    With 3 to play

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      18 pts on the bench

      1. Art Vandelay
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Only 16 here...

        Presumably one of them is Capoue? Hopefully we will be rewarded with a price rise.

  16. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Overwhelmed by his cheap 5m tag in a 'top team' have i like many others made a mistake in getting in Stones? seemed the furthest back at all times, with Kolarov shooting forward, doesnt really get many baps and isnt exactly a force when he goes up for corners. I guess my other option at 5m was Morgan so could have been worse....its early days yes, but at the moment a move to Williams seems very likely.

    1. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      5 mil for city def. Can't go wrong.

      1. Garlana
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Which still could be the case....5m for a baps machine like Williams in a Everton team that are looking to sort out their defensive failings looks more interesting.

    2. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sunderland had 23% possession and very few shots. They keep doing that to teams and the CS will flow in.

      1. Garlana
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Im sure they will, i guess i cant expect to get any baps and just a solid 5 or 6.

    3. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      christ give the season a chance mate....... well see if the class of city will win out and whether stones stays first choice

    4. Goaldigger
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Had they kept a cleanie I think he might have been in the baps.

      Still excellent pick.

  17. Jolly Good
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Bps for the city game? Any for kun?

    1. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      should be 3 for kun as it stands

  18. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I can't hold it no more....I...must...brag

    60 points with Zlatan,Firmino and Valencia to go. Best start ever!

    1. Numb

    7. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I think having a decent start for the first time could be the final piece of the jigsaw for me! *Hopefully*, FPL winner this year! 🙂

      1. Hibbo

            • 13 Years

            Why not use FPL

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years

            They don't have baps for that game atm. FPL site has him ahead.

            1. Cecil The Lion
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              Aha. Thanks TM

      I don't even know if I'm doing well. Waiting for the ranking.

    11. BenDavies
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Wowsers! My punt of Shaqiri went well!

      Will he be getting 10 points then?

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nice one. Never even considered him really.

      2. Cecil The Lion
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Well done. I went Bojan. The lure of pens 🙁

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

        Really good pick, 9 points I think

    12. schlupptheweek
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes I occasionally used to post my score which was stupid and pointless. But surely the score after 5 GW's will reveal more (about football and FPL players). Most decent scores at the end will probably between 50 - 80 so ground can easily be made up (even if you get 30-40 it's not a complete disaster).

      1. Jamie_GAWA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Let me guess, you had a bad week?

        1. schlupptheweek
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          No I had an average week if it's important (probably around 35-36) with a few midfielders and a forward to go.

    13. Marty McFly
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I know it's early but does anyone know a good site for price rises/falls this year? I used to use total fpl but it wasn't great last season. Thanks in advance.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
