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.

    Tadic, you sadist.

    Tadic off, Long on

  3. Jafooli
    10 years, 1 month ago

    No CS's, missed peno, no attacking points and 3 x YC's 😎

    1. Jafooli
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Actually think I might still be on zero.

      Good week other than that little blip Jafooli?

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 1 month ago

        😛

        Worst week ever 😀

    3. Clump
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch.
      You still provide the best teatime posts though.

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 1 month ago

        And the cupboards are currently bare. Which is probably a good thing 😀

        1. Clump
          10 years, 1 month ago

          🙂

  4. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ

    I might quit! 🙂

    Capoue assist from the blocked shot?

    1. Keno
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunately no

  6. Keno
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Later Tadic

    1. Samwise the Brave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Out of my team now

      1. kijsberg
        10 years, 1 month ago

        But what options are there?

        1. rdamjan
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Cazorla

  7. Rolls-Royce
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Mahrez is such a differential in my ML. 🙁 🙁

    1. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Same... 🙁

  8. Numb
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Tadic OFF

  9. Mull
    10 years, 1 month ago

    If Mahrez scored you'd all be saying he's essential. 😆

    1. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 1 month ago

      The problem is that he may be off pens. That's huge this season.

      1. Cecil The Lion
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Not after one miss. Ranieri needs his confidence up, not to dent it further

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      10 years, 1 month ago

      There are only 18 essential players this year.

      1. KipperRSA
        10 years, 1 month ago

        and they change each time a goal is scored or someone blanks 🙂

  10. kijsberg
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is Funes Mori nailed to the bench now?

  11. Francescoli
    10 years, 1 month ago

    beautiful run by Bellerin

    1. In Like Flynn.

      10 years, 1 month ago

  12. faver
    10 years, 1 month ago

  13. TheSteel
    10 years, 1 month ago

    1. TheSteel

    2. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I only have one goal. Annoying

    3. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yes 🙁

  14. Arteta
    10 years, 1 month ago

  15. Salah’s Sonnet

    3. Johnny Drama

  19. StalkingDwarf

    10 years, 1 month ago

    Scenes on here when Tadic gets a hatty next gameweek lol. Such a frustrating FPL player. More of a troll than Lukaku.

  20. Somalion
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Ozil off for Wilshere and Ox off for a mop.

  21. Jamie_GAWA
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Snoddy could be a great pick if you are patient with him, after all he is only 5.6 mil

    I think we maybe expect too much from our cheap mids

  22. Lyonnais
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Overall average 26.3 atm.
    I'm crying 🙁

  23. Rolls-Royce
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Bye Bye Riyad.. Welcome Ozil/Mane.

  24. Rainer
    10 years, 1 month ago

    57th - 58th minute in Leicester game...

    Kasper off 57th min, loss of 4 points
    Mahrez missed pen 58th min, loss of 7 points

    Love this game me 🙂

    1. Camp No No
      10 years, 1 month ago

      How about the Baines missing a penalty and Given scoring an own goal? If that will be listed so in FPL, it's just hilarious! 😀

  25. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 1 month ago

  28. Camp No No
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Who's watching the Everton match? Can it really be that Baines got his penalty saved and then Given scored an OG? 😀 Jackpot for the non-owners! 😆

    1. s4m777
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Well he missed the penalty.

    2. Neeskens Under Matip
