The Gameweek rolls on with no less than six three o’clock kick-offs to monitor. Fantasy Football managers will need to spread their attention, with a vast array of talent on show.

Eden Hazard’s 25% ownership will be expecting big things from their man at home to Burnley. The Belgian has returned in both his outings thus far but will likely face a rearguard action from the visitors at the Bridge.

Equally, Riyad Mahrez is heavily backed to produce against Swansea at the King Power. The Algerian haunted the South Wales club with four goals last season and remains in 27% of squads ahead of today’s kick-off.

Everton’s Romelu Lukaku makes his return to the fray in the home clash with Stoke as he bids to attempt to break up the Aguero/Ibrahimovic monopoly in our frontlines. Whilst down at St Mary’s, Dusan Tadic and Nathan Redmond will be bidding for our attention in midfield as they face struggling Sunderland.

Christian Benteke makes his Crystal Palace debut at Selhurst Park as winless Palace and Bournemouth clash, whilst at Vicarage Road, Arsenal will attempt to kick-start their season with a win over Watford with Mesut Ozil returning to the Gunners’ line-up.

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

    No surprise seeing Sanchez rip it up after 30,000 got rid of him...

  2. Pedram

    9 years, 8 months ago

    How am i supposed to fit in Sanchez, Hazard, Aguero and Ibra with such a limited budget ?

    1. The Donald
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      you can't

      1. il Brutto
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yes you can. I have all four.

    2. Inverjas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      drop ibra for rooney, thats what i've done

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      FFS members get an extra 2.0m

    4. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      That's the whole point of the game.

    5. pokern1nja09
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Choice between Sanchez/hazard IMO

    6. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Heh same here. Basically swapped Sanchez for Ibra. Rolling with all 4 meant the rest of the squad was paper thin.

    7. Dirty Harry
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Goodluck

    8. Jimmy Boy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      This is how FPL works, you have to pick between them

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

      Accept that you'll never get clean sheets

    10. red devil 7
      • 9 Years

  3. Davidinho

  4. CostaCoffee

  5. Chucky

    1. Woy of the Wovers

    2. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Ibra did`t played yet.

  6. Milner4eva
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    worth a WC to ditch about 5 price fallers and get 5 risers?

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Probably yes

    2. Mash Potato
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  7. Limbo
    • 15 Years

    Anyone squeezed in Sanchez, Hazard, Ibra, Kun?

    1. 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years

      HOW?

      1. Konig Luther
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        you just need to own a 4.5 mids

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Capoue and Fletcher though. But nicely done nonetheless.

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

        Yeah not ideal having the bench I do!

    3. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Fab Four here as well.

    4. Dirty Harry
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      rest of your team must be trash

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

        4 5.5m defenders

    5. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Watford is so bad

    6. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      3 mids is no good. They are highest scoring. Not worth it.

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

        Yeah to be honest my FPL team is the same as my Telegraph team which is my main game, I don't have the time to look at FPL strategy.

  9. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I took out Sanchez but it was for a good cause in Ibra

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

      1. Mash Potato

        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

    1. Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

    2. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years

  15. Limbo
    • 15 Years

    Foster / Heaton
    Holgate / Holding / Amat / Shaw / Friend
    Snodgrass / Hazard / Sánchez / Redmond / Capoue
    Gray / Ibrahimovic / Agüero
