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.

    Really don't see how Sunderland can avoid relegation. Not with those players.

      Even Sunderland fans say that every season, but they always seem to find a way to stay up.

      I know right.

      Firmino
      Lukaku
      Man United suddenly good
      Lovren & Baines transferred in last night after advice from someone here
      Clean sheets lost out to Sunderland and Stoke

      From now on I'm captaining Aguero and autopicking the rest.

      Step up Alexis.

    • 1966 was a great year for E…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Is Adam Smith OK?

      Great bench play from him 🙂

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I'm told he played on.

        My sub for Baines... worked out alright.

    • Niemi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Early thoughts on who to bring in for Hazard (if he doesn't perform today)?

      I might bring in Sanchez/KDB and downgrade Valencia to 4.5 for a -4. Or just double up on Liverpool (already own Mane)? Son also looks a threat.

    • Lallana_
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Got unlucky owning Mane/Firmino today but I will be patient.

      Hopefully Koscielny does well. Got him and Smith coming off the bench.

      And great stuff from De Bruyne as usual.

      And how about Sunderland bottling that? Bad start for Pickford.

      Step up Hazard
