An emphatic victory for Manchester City provides modest returns from their key Fantasy assets, sending us into the afternoon kick-offs scratching around for early points. With just four matches on the agenda, we have slim pickings available.

Bournemouth’s Josh King’s looks the most likely – he faces up to a Stoke City defence who boast just a single clean sheet from their last seven, having scored 12 goals in his previous 14 Gameweeks. Over 89,000 Fantasy Premier League managers have drafted in King ahead of this one, boosting his ownership to 891,000+ (19.8%).

Elsewhere, Hull City face relegated Sunderland at the KCOM Stadium with Eldin Jakupovic and Harry Maguire the major assets on show, while Burnley host West Brom at Turf Moor, with Tom Heaton’s 19.5% ownership surely expecting a clean sheet return.

Finally, Leicester City entertain Watford at the King Power Stadium, with Jamie Vardy seeking to maintain form that has brought him returns in eight of his last nine Gameweeks.

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

      8 years, 10 months ago

      Can you afford Jesuanie?

      I love kompany.

    3. StalkingDwarf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Kompany.

      1. ralfb
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks, Kompanie it is

        How about alonso siggi to Kompanie Pedro for -4?

        1. StalkingDwarf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          I'd rather have Alonso than Kompany, so I'm not so keen on those transfers. Pedro is a good differential though.

      Sane.. I cant love one player base on one good performance

      1. ralfb
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        He had 3 good ones in last 5 games

    5. barracuda
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Jesus will explode next GW, I can feel it. Also Silva will play more minutes, maybe Aguero will get some time. Don't bother to get KDB

      1. ralfb
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks Have Jesus already just worried sbout sane gamesome so thought I might prefer getting Kompanie in

    Can't believe I'm watching Hull v Sunderland.

    1. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Can't believe Hull are doing so badly. Step it up, boys!

    2. SamH123

          • 9 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Pant is essential

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 10 months ago

            got him captain atm 😀

              • 9 Years
              8 years, 10 months ago

              Is it gamewise or through the season?

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Samuels will explode IMO

  4. StalkingDwarf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Arnie down

  5. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    am I the only one with 4 players on the pitch as I type this?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      2 here... Both in starting XI are against 2 on my bench 😳

  6. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Ibra and Kun out, and unsurprisingly both Manchester clubs look much more fluid and dangerous

    1. SamH123
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      City have actually done great without Aguero for a few years, maybe there's too much focus on Aguero when he does play

      1. barracuda
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        He will be sold in summer.

  7. Jafooli

    All players wearing their budgie smugglers, so they can get straight the bus to the beach on full time......

  8. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Kind of worried about Bailly Gabriel and JWP for my BB next week, do you think they are all worth keeping?

    Ropes made of multiple strands of natural fibers such as, hemp, sisal, manila, and also cotton have been used for thousands of years for hoisting and hauling. By the 19th century, deeper mines as well as construction of larger and larger sailing ships increased demand for stronger ropes. In 1830 the Royal Navy defined a cable as three hawser laid (clockwise) ropes, each approximately 120 fathoms in length, laid anti-clockwise, tightly twisted and shackled to a resulting length of approximately 100 fathoms. The tight twists, shortened the overall length of the ropes but both strengthened the ropes and reduced the ability of the rope to absorb water making them ideal for mooring.

      I can't fathom why Harry Kane didn't haul last night...Spurs were pretty ropey...

    Vardy should have just had an assist for me. Who shot and hit the post?

  16. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    not owning Vardy worries me

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Why?

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

      Don't get why anyone would be worried by not highly owned players

      1. Smarty Pants
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        He was talking about some invisible hand. Probably thought that the missed a hand ball...

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      What did he order?

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      What did he drink?

  21. Camp No No
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    That's more like it! More shots Maguire, some of those desperate efforts will surprise Pickford eventually!

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      What position. Does he play

      First time owning him do know what he even looks like

  22. tokara
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    any rumours of sanchez playing upfront soonnnnn?

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, most of them on here....

  23. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Albrighton not bagged yet?

  24. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Now we've seen the City game, worth doing Sane and Benteke ----> Albrighton and Jesus for free?

    Gives me two DGWers instead of one and Jesus looks dangerous and well owned.

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Why would you sell Sane? He could've had a hatful

      1. You've got red on you.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Not sure I can afford to have both Sane and Jesus

    2. TOPCAT1960
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Hatfull of assists if he learns to pass

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Sane looked more dangerous

  25. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    If Moyes stays on and wins Sunderland promotion, can Sunderland then sack him on the grounds that he failed to meet their targets this season?

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Or can you sack someone with no grounds, so long as you pay off their contract?

    2. TOPCAT1960
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      As a HR Manager..... nope

      But then he has less than 2 yrs of service

  26. Syd.
    • 16 Years

    You got to love those officials

    How that isn't a red card is unreal

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Or "Smith yellow card"

      "Ooh, is it his birthday?"
