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.

    Going well.

    Defoe to Benteke week before last.
    Ben Gibson and Evans on the bench.

    But, did bring in De Bruyne, Coutinho and Rashford on wild card...makes up for Walker, Jags and Bailly not doing anything.

      Yep. And I have Bellerin, Toby, Valencia, Baines. Double WBA starting this week too, with Foster in goal and McAuley in for Baines. Dire stuff.

  10. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Bournemouth and Stoke only teams with a clean sheet, unreal

  11. il Brutto
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Getting clean sheets is impossible this season.

  12. Jay_
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling, Firmino, Benteke, letting me down badly.

    • Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      What's happening with Liverpool Scoring 4 or 5 goals every game. Easily... Like Barselona back in the days. All small and fast and interchanging

    • HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

    • @persecuted_by_mods
        9 years, 2 months ago

        The worst gameweek I've ever had. No returns from anyone including my captain. Just hazard capoue and Heaton left

        1. Ha.
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Hazard to score

          1. @persecuted_by_mods
              9 years, 2 months ago

              No consolation, I'm on a hit too. Crunching week 🙁

        2. For Fuchs Sake
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I have Lukaku and Adam Smith, difficult times!

        3. Dušan Citizen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          How are Lukaku and Bolasie playing?

          1. Paracelsus
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Bolassie erratic today. Lukaku had one great header, but a surprising save kept it out. Not a whole lot more. Everton rather erratic.

            1. Dušan Citizen
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years

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

          I don't want to live in a world where Stoke and Sunderland get the only clean sheets.

          1. Would an idiot do that?
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

          2. HuttonDressedasLahm
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            You're OK
            Sunderland don't have one 🙂

            1. Forza
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              That makes it more bearable, just seeing the look on Moyes' face.

        6. Would an idiot do that?
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Amat / Cout or Firmino / Costa
