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?

    1. Numb
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Son

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        10 years, 23 days ago

        Did he play well when he came on the pitch?

        1. bojack
          10 years, 23 days ago

    Antonio is playing right back again?? Are you kidding me?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 23 days ago

      bilic has lost the plot

      1. Frank Black
        10 years, 23 days ago

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

    2. Pariße
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Bilic is starting to make Hodgson-like decisions, it'll get him fired.

    1. Brap.
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Not arrogant...low confidence

      Not what we owners need to see

  9. janowsc
    10 years, 23 days ago

    So Jaku gonna be starting keeper again?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 23 days ago

      surely

      1. Pariße
        10 years, 23 days ago

        Was it a Marshall horror show?

    2. Rhinos
      10 years, 23 days ago

      doubt it but possible, hulls bubble well and truly burst

    3. polis
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Phelan signs full time contract, Hull turn to ....

      Not the first time that's happened.

  10. Chucky
    10 years, 23 days ago

    It was going to be a low scoring GW after all that hype 🙁

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 23 days ago

      It's not a low scoring GW

  11. Ninja Škrtel
    10 years, 23 days ago

    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.

    25 pts ffs.

    1. Clump
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Many will have done worse.

  12. Ravager
    10 years, 23 days ago

    What a week. 17(-4)

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Yeah 17 here too, Holding on to Lukaku the only bright spot

  13. Goodricke
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Phelan gets the job, Then, then, THEN, they start being cannon fodder! Why couldn't they have done that in the opening weekend like they were supposed to!

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 23 days ago

      changed the keepers and since then all things have fallen apart

  14. Numb
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Sanchez captainers happy?

    1. Give The Todd Some Love
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Happy I didn't captain Aguero

      1. niko mate
        10 years, 23 days ago

        this

      2. Scholes Balls
        10 years, 23 days ago

        same, though i have costa and removed the band today

      3. Pariße
        10 years, 23 days ago

        Mostly this.

    2. AA33
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Otherwise I would have captained Aguero

    3. Mark-O
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Better than Kun with -2

      1. Konig Luther
        10 years, 23 days ago

        or -3 for those who used TC

  15. Le _ Professeur
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Eriksen 2 BPS ... nice 🙂

  16. TheBusDriver
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Sanchez fail. 6 Captain fails in 8 GWs.

    1. Clump
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Time to quit.

    2. Krul Runnings
      10 years, 23 days ago

      How is it a fail?

      What's wrong with you people

    3. Fowler23
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Be glad u didn't captain Aguero.
      I'm taking the 10 points

    4. Bazzalona
      10 years, 23 days ago

      A fail is when you get zilch.
      If you get points which double its a success.
      Not gonna get a 2,3 goal captain all the time

  17. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    10 years, 23 days ago

    How bad was toby injury? I got him in for a 4 point hit... D'oh

  18. Hi I'm Jose
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Happy with Walcott, Costa, Lukaku but totally failed double up Spurs defenders and with Stones.

  19. janowsc

    1. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 23 days ago

      I'm with you. A brace could do serious ML damage today as I'm the only non-Kun captainer!

  20. pundit of punts
    10 years, 23 days ago

    22(-4) with 4 to play.

    1. Zebras
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Annoyed I brought in Snodgrass. Hull is a lost cause.

  22. Blue Devils
    10 years, 23 days ago

    Allen sub was purely tactical right? Any sign of injury? i need to transfer him in tonight

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 23 days ago

      he decided to sub himself as he decided he had inflicted enough pain

    2. Clump
      10 years, 23 days ago

      He's fine.

    3. Danstoke82
      10 years, 23 days ago

  23. Kaneyonero

    1. Clump
      10 years, 23 days ago

    Not fantasy related but I am waiting on the Villa to win for £500...let it ride or take the cash out of £160?!

    1. Rhinos
      10 years, 23 days ago

      let it ride, you getting over 2 to 1, value

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      10 years, 23 days ago

      Easy for me to say but let it ride. Use cash out if it's close and they go 1 up

  25. Z
    10 years, 23 days ago

    10 years, 23 days ago

  28. Ninja Škrtel
    10 years, 23 days ago

    only wally can score a brace and not end up with 3 baps.

    1. Hi I'm Jose
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 23 days ago

    2. Fowler23
      10 years, 23 days ago

      2 taps in any Sunday league player would've scored and missed 3 sitters

  29. Jigger & Pony
