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.

    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How did kdb look considering Silva and Aguero were on the pitch?

  10. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Ibra + Snodgrass > Rashford + Sterling? Or is it a bit knee jerky?

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

    43 (-4, after bonus) with Costa, Antonio and Capue to go.

  12. Ady87

    1. bojack
      • 9 Years

    2. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Fair play

    3. Clump
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      52 post bonus with 3 mids and a keeper to go.

  13. Acquafresca
    • 14 Years

    Double Sunderland defence 😎

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

      On purpose?

      1. Acquafresca
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yep 😐

    2. Azathoth

      Suicidal Tendencies?

      1. RÏɠBY
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        HE CARES A LOT!

  14. Concept
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Right.. Mane is better pick than firm - fact.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Well he was today

    2. Frank Black
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Far from it.

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. Prison Mike
      • 10 Years

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

  17. thep025
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How is Son looking?Son vs Antoniovs Lallana?
    Rashford vs Deeney?

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

      Wait until they've actually played ffs

  18. Aston-villain
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    im tempted to do firmino to lallana....

    1. Azathoth
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      and when u do it,he 'll score a hat-trick....

  19. Numb
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Best Liverpool mid to get?

    1. BlzE_94
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Mane

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Cout and Mane double up IMO

    3. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just a lottery.. Pick one and stick they'll all roughly score the same

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

        Might as well go with the cheapest one then.

    4. *sigh*
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Lallana 7.1 is the cheapest ticket in the lottery

    5. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Whoever scored most this week just gone.

    6. Johnny Drama
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Firmino

      😉

    7. Aston-villain
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      lallana imo. just didnt have the balls yesterday cos i see firm and cout as better players, but lallana seems instrumental in Klopps setup in terms of fpl

    8. Garlana
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Fir...I just have no idea... surely it has to be lallana based on value?

    9. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Lallana.

    10. Frank Black
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Firmino
      Lallana
      Milner
      Manè

  20. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Wow. Coleman actually looking to get baps! 🙂

    1. Sz21
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      a solid 3 bonus pts!

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Must have been very attacking

  21. SirStevieG
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    As a Pool fan and Firmino owner, I can't see Bobby doing well fantasy wise unless Sturridge starts, which probably won't happen too often.

    Really considering knee-jerking him out.

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      if its a points lottery i guess go lallana and save cash

      1. thep025
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Same thought here....How did Lallana look?

        1. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Dangerous, like the rest of our front-third, besides Bobby.

      2. The Taint Tickler
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Are his minutes a concern?

        1. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          No Klopp loves him, but his role is different without Sturridge in the side. He barely got a look at goal being centrally.

    2. Garlana
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Last time I did this. He got a brace

      1. SirStevieG
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Probably will if Sturridge starts against Swansea, which is unlikely.

    3. Johnny Drama
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Why can't you see that?

  22. Sourabh
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    45 with 2 to go ... seems like an average weekend, missing lovren and i'll get Amat in his place 🙁

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm getting Morgan for Baines.

  23. thep025
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    36 pre baps with Sanchez,Deeney,Capoue,Redmond to go...Red arrow incoming? 25k rank

  24. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    wow. that sterling goal is just talent. not easy that fake dribble

  25. Flynny
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    It's just bad luck that lpool and United score 9 goals and ibra and f8rmino not involved yeah?

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      pretty much

    2. Clump
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd say so.

  26. Arceus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    lol @ ppl having defenders

    No wait

    1. Sourabh
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      you play without defenders ??

  27. Acquafresca
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    DANIEL IS BACK!??

    Welcome.

  28. Ibralicious
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Zaha-> Coutinho for -4? (Firmino/Lallana a better pick?)

  29. Jay_
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Baines (!) Stones Holebas (!) Amat Wilson

      1m ITB.

      A) Baines > Bellerin -4
      B) Stones > Kosc -4
      C) Wilson > Lovren -4
      D) Don't take the hit, just play Stones (tot) and Amat (LIV) and hope one or both of Baines and Holebas get fit.

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

        d

      2. *sigh*
        • 14 Years

    • Sz21
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      56 with Holebas, Sanchez, Anto and Deeney..
      More than solid..but needed this badly after last GW..

      Cheers Adam, Seamie, Raheem and of course Capt. Sergio!
