With just two goals from Saturday’s action so far, we now turn to the tea-time kick-off at Selhurst Park to provide some much-needed entertainment and Fantasy returns.

Crystal Palace host Burnley having enjoyed an influx of investment on the back of their double Gameweek 34, ensuring that many will have interest in this evening’s encounter.

Christian Benteke – one of the few success stories with a 14-point return – heads into the match backed by 608,000+ FPL managers, with 172,000 opting to hand him the captaincy ahead of the Clarets clash – that includes 21 of the top 100 managers.

In contrast, Wilfried Zaha owes his recent investors. He was brought in by 144,000+ ahead of Gameweek 34 only to return just three points. More than 46,000 have shipped him out ahead of today’s clash.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Moyes is such a crap manager. Ten years the black cats survive relegation then he takes over and instantly down. He even laughs doesn't seem to care when they lose etc, hardly a passionate or inspiring manager. What a waste of space

    Another chant. Also: Come On You Gooners.

    Hashtag: #COYG

    As an aside: on North London Derby day (see: North London Derby), the enemy is readily identified on Twitter because Spurs fans (see: Tottenham, the enemy) use the grammatically incorrect #COYS.

    Is this right ?
    Why is that wrong ?

          Oh well you can be a gunner, but not a spur (to make things simple). Spurs is the shortened nickname for the team, not the members of the team, wherease gunners is both. COYS sounds like satire. Sounds like a joke, like "come on you......Arsenal" or "come on you... England".

          Having said that, I quite like it. And there's not really such a thing as "ungrammatical". It it works it works. Substituting one word for another doesn't effect the underlying structure, so all that matters is that it has communicative value. And in this case it does. For me it's unnatural but funny. For spurs fans who use it all the time, perhaps it's grammatical.

            The gunners are good (yep)

            Gunners are good (grammatical but doesn't refer to Arsenal)

      No idea what they mean by incorrect....If the motto was written today, it'd likely be, "C'mon - instead of come on - You Spurs"

      If it's the "You Spurs" part that they feel is incorrect, I dont think they're right.

        Anichebe worth 4 points and enables Hazard. Plenty of value there, I would argue.

        I already have Jesus - so not too relevant to the question.

        If we assume Stones plays 1 match in 37 - that is 6 matches for the price of 3. Pays for the -8....?
