After Manchester United’s devastating blast at Old Trafford, the Gameweek rolls on with a batch of six three o’clock kick-offs.

Once again there’s a rich cast of Fantasy talent on show, with Manchester City, Liverpool and Everton all in action.

Sergio Aguero is undoubtedly the headline act and, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s blank, his output at Swansea City comes under greater focus.

Brought in by more than 400,000 new Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of today’s deadline, 18% of all FPL managers back Aguero with the captaincy in South Wales.

The top 100 have certainly been quick to jump on the Argentine – 41 of them have immediately trusted him with the armband.

Much is expected of the Liverpool midfield. They host Hull City at Anfield with Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane heavily backed for points.

Romelu Lukaku is another key asset on show as he makes the trip to Bournemouth. Now found in 19% of FPL squads, the Belgian starts and is captained by just 4%.

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

      Captain tekkers last week and now this from Firminio. I should have had Ibra for the 4 goal blank hat trick

    I think if you keep flip-flopping on Liverpool mids you're setting yourself up for a painful season

    Just going to leave Mane in personally

    1. Jasoooooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      +1. You've got to stick with one for the whole season IMO

    Played Snodgrass cause thought Hull would score. No assist on the goal do.

    Liverpool mids mopping up the points again.

  6. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    I don't understand this Firminho bandwagon in here, Coutinho has always been the better player and he's actually cheaper.

    Got to be underlying stats ha ?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Always been the better player? Looool what

      1. Pedram
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        yes Cout is head and shoulder better than Firminho.

        1. FFSbet.com
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Yes,hes better as DFM.

    2. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Firmino was amazing last season.

    3. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Coutinho's underlying stats are also better

    4. HNI
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Firmino underlying stats like shots in box are stronger..Although Cout shoots a lot outside box shots have much less chance of going in..I am looking for Sterling substitue and really torn between Lallan/Firmino/Cout...Lallana has best stats of 3 actually but he isnt a glamour pick and hence avoided by experienced players

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        That's not true. I compared shots in the box, and went for Coutinho. Firmino key passes is the only stronger stat, bizarrely.

  7. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    What a differential to have. Only one who owns Firmino in my Cash ML. 2 Mane owners & 2 Coutinho captains. Hold tight Firmino owners hopefully next week.

    9 years, 5 months ago

    Sturridge...is he now dead man walking...he will only come into that front 3 only when red/ yello card or injury then..

    1. HNI
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Others injured and Sturridge of all people fit? Lol keep dreaming

  9. Chucky
    • 12 Years

    Mane you waste of space

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      You do know he scored right

    2. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      What he's already scored!

    3. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He scored didnt he?

      1. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        just 1 🙁

        1. Eden Azzzar

    Sterling is useless

    1. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He's got me a shed load of points this season

    2. QPR Lad 92
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      he can't strike a ball properly

  11. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Midfield trio of Mane, Coutinho and Lallana could be deadly...

  12. GinjaWhinja
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    If anyone is wondering why Firmino has done nothing all game. It's that ridiculous ponytail!

    1. Eden Azzzar
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Makes sense

  13. Hybrid.power
