The first of five days of Gameweek 34 action gets underway at 3pm, offering up a quartet of fixtures to keep us entertained.

Middlesbrough are the only Double Gameweek team on duty this Saturday as Steve Agnew takes his troops to Bournemouth.

Alvaro Negredo and Ben Gibson were the most popular picks for clashes with the Cherries and Sunderland, transferred in by 193,000 and 112,000 FPL managers respectively.

Up against a defence that’s conceded two or more goals in seven of their last eight at the Vitality, the Spaniard earned second place in our Gameweek 34 Captain Poll, with over 20% backing.

Elsewhere, Romelu Lukaku will be hoping his record against West Ham can remedy a run of one goal in his previous seven road trips – the most owned player in FPL has found the net in each of his last nine head-to-heads with the Hammers.

Swansea’s Gylfi Sigurdsson attempts to halt a run of five straight blanks as Stoke roll up to the Liberty. The Icelandic international earned more transfers out (88,000+) than any midfielder ahead of this afternoon’s deadline.

Hull take on Watford at the KCOM in the other Saturday fixture.

The Tigers have won seven and drawn one of eight matches in all competitions since Marco Silva took charge, suggesting they could deliver some differential options today. With goals in each of his last two appearances, Harry Maguire – boasting a 0.5% ownership – looks the man most likely as the battle to beat the drop intensifies.

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

    That's what you get when Son plays wing back.

      Poch is such a fraud. 😉

    A nailed on Willian would be nice.

    My player Son having a shocker. 🙁

    1. athreya
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      More like a dive by Moses

    The Spurs Choke Begins

  6. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Would Baines have taken that if he'd been on the pitch?

  7. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Willian hatty inevitable

  8. athreya
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Willian essential

  9. Mark-O
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Poch's mistake to let Son play as wing back

  10. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    He's wasted playing at that position, you do the want son back there.

    1. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      They must have someone else to play there even in the reserves

  11. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Massive dive from Moses....should be YC

  12. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Chelsea has been on the back foot since Spurs equalized...but then Son gives Moses the opportunity to do that. Typical Spurs.

  13. FALCAO & MOU
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    I told him to play Daughter wingback, just won't listen, will he?

    1. Mark-O
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      What a failed joke

      Try harder next time

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      I see what you tried to do there, but jokes are still supposed to make sense 😉

    3. FALCAO & MOU
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      At least something got a reply.

    4. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Don't ever consider comedy as a career.

  14. Count of Monte Hristo

    Spurs having a mare.

  15. FPL Puppy
    • 10 Years

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      nope

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Yep, but tackle invited it. Deserved to give away a pen

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        Victim blaming. 😆

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 4 days ago

          See how much thigh he is showing? 😉

          1. Wilshere Knowledge
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 4 days ago

            😀

    3. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      Nah. Saw Son came in too early, took the contact. Smart if anything.

  16. F4L
    • 11 Years

  17. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

  18. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Lloris should be off.

  19. La Roja
    • 14 Years

  20. F4L
    • 11 Years

    Drop Son

  21. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    If Spurs can't beat Chelsea without Hazard and Costa and there patched up defence I would be very wary of thier performances at Wembley and with European commitments next season. Especially during the group stage.

    1. athreya
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 days ago

      I would be more I tesretd

      1. athreya
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 4 days ago

        Oops. Would be more interested in what it means for their games vs Arsenal and United. As in are they feeling the pressure?

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 days ago

          Not pressure as such. Never seem the same at Wembley.

  22. Diva
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Lloris lucky not to get sent off for deliberate handball.

  23. Jimmy Boy
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago

    Afobe, Origi or Gray as third striker for the run-in?

  24. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 days ago
