Gameweek 3 gets underway in some style: on paper, the early kick-off at White Hart Lane has the makings of a classic. However, much depends on the version of the Liverpool side that turns up.

Jurgen Klopp’s men were spectacular in the season opener against Spurs’ north London rivals, Arsenal. They followed that display a week later with frustrating showing at Burnley, as they slipped to a 2-0 reverse having hogged 83% of the ball.

As for Spurs, they’ve certainly failed to spark to this point. A stalemate with Everton was followed by a stuttering display against Palace, which eventually saw them grind out a 1-0 win.

Harry Kane is back as the lone striker. Philippe Coutinho is fit and on the Liverpool teamsheet. The scene is set for the big Fantasy assets to come to the fore.

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

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        So as a Kun (c) and Ibra owner, what should I want?

        1. VS10_
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Kun to score more than Ibra.

      2. TheBusDriver
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        What about top 1 million???

        1. VS10_
          • 10 Years

          Check the overall tab below the spreadsheet

        Is there anyway I can subscribe to this spreadsheet every gameweek ?

        1. VS10_
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          No idea about that, but just check https://fpldiscovery.wordpress.com/ right before the first game of the weekend starts.

      4. sminkypinky
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        In the top 10k as it stands with an overly template team. So expecting to fall right on out of there even if all my players do moderately. Bound to be a couple of thousand mavericks with trip (K)un.

    4. Bushido
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Is Isaac Success any good?

      1. Eden Azzzar
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        With a name like that Yes

        1. Bushido
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Loool, what about perez the supposedly new arsenal striker?

          1. Eden Azzzar
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            No clue

      2. Arteta
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I heard he is successful.

    5. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Kane will score because I removed him for Ibra... Today the bad luck begins.

      1. Bushido
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I did exactly the same. I hope he scores, then I can take ibra out for kane and save some money.

      2. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Kane back as the lone striker against a Liverpool defence that has conceded 5 in 2 games. What were we thinking? 🙁

        1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          We had no choice 🙁 Too many own Ibra!

    6. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Did really get rid of an OOP Firmino?... 🙂

    7. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Woah, my team for next GW looks awful.

    8. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      When you click on your minileague now, it displays who everyone has captained etc. Is this a new feature implemented this week?

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        You sure that's not a plugin?

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Ohhh yeah I downloaded that betterfpl thing. 😆

          1. Les Bleus
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            😀

      2. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I don't see anything different.

    9. TheBusDriver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Hope you all have a good week as long as Aguero doesn't score. If he does, then I hope you all have a terrible week.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Such ridiculous thinking not getting him!

    10. Jafooli
      • 14 Years

      Should be a great derby this, looking forward to it.

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Eh?

      Hart to Sunderland is an actual thing....

      Come on you reds

      1. Eden Azzzar
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        You're joking

        1. internal error
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Sunderland echo suggest so. Hart pretty much left with no choice

          1. Defcons are for Kinnear
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            I feel sorry for him

      2. Bushido
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        If they put his price down to 4.5 then he'll be worth it.

    12. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Kane looking sharp as usual. Standing tall, mouth open.

    13. aaaaaa
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond captain here!

      1. Kaneyonero
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Ditto

      2. Bushido
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        What are your future redmond plans? His upcoming fixtures are a bit poo. Are you going to keep him?

        1. aaaaaa
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Ofcourse. a 6 mid, who plays upfront

    14. Jay_

        (Pickford Capoue M.Wilson Amat)

        Vardy, Lamela, Firmino, Oscar, VVD all sold and I have all my eggs in an Everton basket. #BrownPants

        Ps- Good luck everyone!

            I went Pick/Jaku. Looks like I will have no GKs in a few weeks haha

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Surprisingly well balanced considering the front 3.

        2. Worzel Gummidge
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Anyone want to admit they wasted their Bench Boost?

              I've run out of popcorn 🙁

              1. Worzel Gummidge
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  Get to the shops.

              2. Nabs Kebabs
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 7 months ago

                Yes, my GW rank of 731 was a huge waste. Hate my life.

                1. Worzel Gummidge
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    hahah that will soon be gone when people BB during a double GW. Ride the wave while you can. Chin up old chap.

                2. S.Kuqi
                  • 13 Years
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  Why anyone would have wasted it already

                  1. Worzel Gummidge
                      9 years, 7 months ago

                      Look above haha. He got 24 and apparently thats a win for BB

                      1. S.Kuqi
                        • 13 Years
                        9 years, 7 months ago

                        LoL 😀

                      2. Epic Fail
                        • 15 Years
                        9 years, 7 months ago

                        To be fair, I don't think that would have been a terrible score even in a DGW.

                        1. S.Kuqi
                          • 13 Years
                          9 years, 7 months ago

                          Gotcha!

                3. Revival
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 13 Years
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  A Ibra blank would be a massive boost to me this gameweek

                  1. Les Bleus
                    • 14 Years
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    Would be to anyone who didn't captain him. Even for those who own him.

                  2. Bubz
                    • 12 Years
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    I dont know what I want. I captained Aguero, but brought in Ibra this week. Id be sad if Ibra blanked but I should probably hope he does

                    1. Epic Fail
                      • 15 Years
                      9 years, 7 months ago

                      Yeah, his uncaptained brace and baps got many a red arrow last time.

                  3. Arteta
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    His owners may as well get rid now.

                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    Of course Coutinho starts when he was injured and told he wouldn't play. unbelievable.

                    1. Jazz!
                      • 11 Years
                      9 years, 7 months ago

                      We were told he'll start yesterday night.

                      1. Salah’s Sonnet
                        • 14 Years
                        9 years, 7 months ago

                        how were we told that? i was on here all night last night, told by everyone he wouldn't be starting. I can't believe he's started.

                    2. Les Bleus
                      • 14 Years
                      9 years, 7 months ago

                      Should have scored too.
