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.

    Just switched on. How are the following players looked for the first half hour?

    Firmino
    Lallana
    Kane

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

      Good
      Didn't know he was playing
      Meh

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

      Firm was on it for 5 mins.

      Lallana, havent seen him.

      Shadow of the past.

      1. Exdeo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        This

    3. Strawberry Jelavic
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Crap.

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

      Should have an assist, ok.

      Nothing FPL worthy.

      Do people actually still have Kane? Haven't seen him yet.

    5. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      1 - close to assist
      2 - invisible
      3 - nr 10 role

    6. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Firmino - should have an assist
      Lallana - v quiet
      Kane - done ok, having a battle with lolvren, but jannsenn just on

    7. Fowler23
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Mane yellow

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

    Mane looks immense.

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

    Alli still getting in very dangerous positions.

  4. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Coutinho is everywhere

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

      everywhere but the net hopefully

  5. devils advocate
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    So many fpl nearly moments in this game that it's making me sick!

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

    GW3 MOST CAPTAINED
    Zlatan - 1,168,007
    Aguero - 1,151,844
    Hazard - 128,695

    1. Jay_
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Would have captained Haz if the times of the City and Chelsea games were reversed

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

          I wanted to captain Alexis but just could't in the end. The fear factor of ignoring Aguero is simply too big.

      • Mark-O
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Zlatan tops the captaincy omg

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

          56.1% ownership too.

    2. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Spurs waking up a bit. Alli in CM might give a bit more drive forward than both Dier and Wanyama as the CMs.

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        It really is stupid playing 2 DM's...

    3. Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      So basically Walker's injury has messed up all Spurs assets

      Funny how that works.

    4. C_G
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Mane's work rate is unmatchable

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        And unsustainable 😉

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

      Walker off to due to illness

    6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Matip is dodgy

      1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Better get that seen to

      2. Jay_
          9 years, 7 months ago

        • Jafooli
          • 14 Years

        • Andy_Social
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Whatever he's oozing, it isn't class.

      3. Francescoli
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        that's a pen for sure

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

        Kane owners robbed.

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Of 11m

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

      5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

          Mane now no longer essential

        • EDEN THE MAN
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yay or Nay

          Firmino and Walker

          Williams and Mane

        • pundit of punts
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Mane yellow.

        • Pavsboot
          • 11 Years

          Got Mane in, he looks incredible and then gets a yellow...

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

        • Jay_
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Alli will look for revenge too, been ruffled a few times now

          • devils advocate
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Hopefully Lamela gets a touch this half.

          • Crystal Ball
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            think matip has looked pretty dubious so far

          • Jay_
              9 years, 7 months ago

              Walker not injured, just ill

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

              Mane on eggshells now.

            • Andy_Social
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              Not looking great for owners of Walker, Alli, Kane, Mane, Coutinho, Firminho ....

              I have no players in this game 😉
