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.

    Instead of asking what the average is, you could read like 3 or 4 comments and save the bragging post.

      Some just don't know the average - i fell in that trap first game last season.

    Hi all,

    Maybe a bit early but does anyone know any news about De Roon (MID)? According to BBC he went off with a hamstring injury - estimations about time injured?

    Should I be too worried about replacing given he's a substitute and 0.6% ownership (unlikely to drop in price?)

    Thanks`1

    Capoue trolling from the bench. Thought a cheap 5th mid was supposed to avoid this kinda thing 😀

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

    All that time spent deciding on Lamela/Tadic or Redmond/Alli...

  7. S.Kuqi

    4. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      1. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        yes

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

          Cool. I'll be on 50 exactly I think.

          Azpilicueta, Valencia, Firmino and Ibrahimovic to go. Decent start.

          1. Chucky
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            solid start

    I guess we can't really complain about benched points when they come from a 4.5mid and a 4.0 defender.

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years

      this

  11. MoeZe3bi
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    how can I know how many baps did I score? cuz my aguero is showing only 6pts?

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Give it some time, it'll get updated soon

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

    I always WC in GW 1. Kept the theme running. Thoughts on this?

    Foster (Jakupovic)
    Shaw Baines Stones (Williams Friend)
    KDB Hazard Firmino Lamela Redmond
    Aguero Negredo (Diomande)

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldve waited until after all games have been played this GW first in case of injuries or fatigue.

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

        On WC so can keep rotating

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      What you gonna do when Ibra scores?

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

        Laugh and ignore. Maybe downgrade KDB and upgrade Diomande.

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

      Nice if you plan to also WC after GW2.

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

        Cheers mate!

    4. JÆKS ⭐

      Looks a bit like the gw1 dreamteam.....

  13. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    So average is 23.

    My projected rank with 46 pts is 117 100. Not bad.

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Aye, compared to last year's bloodbath.... *shudders*

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Last season I was about 600k in GW 1.

    2. Moin

      How do you find out your projected rank?

    4. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years

      Is that before bonus?

  14. _Jane
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Have Lamela and Barkley but VVD fail .. Captained Rooney hope he scores

    1. Licky
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Rooney!?

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

        Yes risky but I had a feeling he will score more than Aguero

        1. Licky
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I think that was very, very risky. I think you'll be lucky with a goal.

  15. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Really not liking the aesthetics of the new FPL site.

    Much preferred how it used to be.

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Site redesigns that don't really work are a current theme.

    2. KING KOUNDER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Absolutely, complete eye sore.

  16. bojack
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I can't wait for my first sub Watson (-2) to come in if Ayew doesn't start.

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      With you bro! (although I have different mids remainings). Watson owners unite and takeover!

  17. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    23pts

    Zlatan(C) + Alexis + Firmino + Valencia + Hazard + Carroll left.
    Decent.

    1. Lallana_

      Looking good

  18. myboycharlie
    • 14 Years

    Was dealafou any good today? Worth shipping for Lamela??

  19. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Jesus. 33 pts with my captain played and 4 remaining. 30 pts on the bench 🙁

    1. GinjaWhinja
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm in the same position!

    2. _Jane
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Wow 30 pts on the bench

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Foster 10pts
        Capoue 10 pts
        Evans/Amat 5 pts

        1. FPL Puppy
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I have the exact same bench...!

    3. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      42 pts with bonus but 3 remaining!

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Wait... You have the same bench, same score and I also have 3 players remaining...

        Did you steal my team?? 😉

    4. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Who was on your bench?

      I had Foster (7), MacAuley (6). Not too bad for me I usually bench more.

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Think Foster is going to 10 pts according to FFF

  20. Licky
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Looking like 30pts with Martial, Firmino, Valencia and Masuaka to play. Not too disappointed. (C) fail really does hurt you though. :/

  21. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    61pts after bps with ibra,hazard,terry to play. Happy with that!

  22. Chenku╰☆╮
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    -8 to start with then... Need to hold it in till Mon atleast.

  23. HamLFC10

  25. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    How was Stones looking baps wise before Sunderland goal?

    In the running? Just curious to know going forward

    1. SW6
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Was something like Kolarov 3, Aguero 2, Stones 1

      1. Krul Runnings
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ok, thanks. A good sign I'd say

    2. Podge
      • 15 Years

      yeh in the running

  26. ChildishFirmino and Lallana…

    Anyone knows any league codes that I can join apart from the classic ffs one and fffix? Looking for last man standing and others

        Already joined. Saw some of your comments earlier and good things about the avatar :)) any other ones?

  27. NissA
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Not a good start points wise, but from what I've gathered from "whoscored", some of my players like Tadic or Townsend have performed greatly, so I'm not feeling too knee jerky yet.

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

    Don't get too cocky about your early rank if you don't own any Man Utd or Arsenal players. There's a lot of them still to play out there, particularly in defence.

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

      Especially Zlatan 🙁

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

      Just got to avoid a mauling from Ibrahimovic and I'll have a very good rank at the end of the week.

    3. Magic Man
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      this, don't own either 😛

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

      56 with Valencia, Ibra, Firmino and Hazard to play. Can get too cocky? :p

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yes

  29. esben86

    Any BPS for Redmond? Where can you see predicted BPS?

    You guys who are moaning about benching Fosters points today, I don't want to sound rude, but I have ZERO sympathy.

    Don't rotate keepers if you're going to bore us every single GW by complaining you benched the wrong guy.

    1. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm not complaining! It's part of the game. Heaton was close to getting a similar score.

      1. Krul Runnings
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Then, I applaud you sir. You're in the minority though

    2. MrMaverick
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      why I'm not convinced by heaton-foster rotation, even if Heaton's away to city you can still expect him to bring you some save pts
