After Chelsea’s 3-0 canter over champions Leicester at Stamford Bridge, we now face five 3pm kick-offs.

Alexis Sanchez and Theo Walcott will be looking to deal the damage as Swansea roll up to the Emirates in their first match under new manager Bob Bradley.

Man City welcome Everton to the Etihad, where Pep Guardiola has listed Sergio Aguero on the bench ahead of the midweek trip to Barcelona. Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling both recover from injury to be named in the first XI.

Heung-Min Son’s growing band of owners have also been left disappointed after he was named amongst the subs for Spurs’ trip to West Brom. The South Korean international was drafted in by more FPL managers (334,000) than any player in the previous Gameweek.

Hull roll up to Bournemouth ahead of some fine upcoming fixtures that could see Robert Snodgrass emerge as a value option for our five-man midfields.

Elsewhere, Stoke welcome Sunderland to the bet365, allowing us the chance to scout Marko Arnautovic and Xherdan Shaqiri as the Potters prepare for some fine fixtures.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Antonio playing in defence again it seems, he has to go then, best replacement for 7.8 or less that is not Walcott?

        He's taking away an important attacking asset and putting in defense someone who can't defend at the same time too.

    this is sooooo frustrating. Such a busy GW and so little points....the entire week I switched captains between Walcott and Costa, and only today I went with Kun thanks to an advice someone gave me here (not blaming, just saying).

    I'll need something special from Deeney, Capoue, Firmino and Antonio to save this GW.
