The second instalment to Sunday’s slice of Premier League action brings Gameweek 3 to a close with matches at Anfield and Wembley Stadium.

The attention of Fantasy managers will be pulled in different directions, with key assets on show in both contests.

After the “failings” of Romelu Lukaku, Paul Pogba and Sergio Aguero on Saturday, we now look to see if Harry Kane can step up.

Kane is backed 741,000+ (16.1%) ahead of the “home” encounter with Burnley as he bids to end a run of two single point returns and score his first competitive career goal in August.

Should he succeed, it would doubtless have a major impact on rankings and transfer activity over the international break.

Equally, events at Anfield could have a major effect on our thinking leading up to Gameweek 4.

Liverpool boast an array of attacking talent, including the electric Sadio Mane, who lines up in tandem with the in-form Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah.

But Arsenal have their own riches on show, with all eyes on the performance of Alexis Sanchez.

He returns to the Gunners’ line-up as Alexandre Lacazette suprisingly drops to the bench as Danny Welbeck leads the attack in a Arsenal’s 3-4-2-1.

Like Kane, should Sanchez convince and return points this afternoon, the impact on the FPL market would be substantial.

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

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

      No need, most have Mane if not Firmino

    2. bojack

      Shut up.

  8. BALOOO
    • 9 Years

    Anyone have Harry Kanes adress? Need to talk to him about destroying my season.

  9. GreenArrows
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Jesus - 9 points
    Firmino - 8 points so far
    Lukaku (c) - 0 points

    Got it wrong lol

    1. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Exactly the same front three and situation 😀

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Same here. Could have gotten Kane in instead of Kami but opted to save my ft to get Sanchez in case he showed something spectacular today

    3. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years

  10. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years

    Is there a way to fit Salah - Firmino - mane in your team without having too many eggs in one basket?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Just go without Salah.

    2. King Sheep
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Have Salah and Bobby, I think Salah can do as well as Mane but more likely to be dropped

    3. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No, I'd have Mane/Firm along with a United double/triple.

  11. Guy Demel
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Time to load up on Bournemouth assets ahead of their trip to the emirates.

  12. King Sheep
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Should've had Bobby BAPS (C) ...... come on Harry!!!!!

    1. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'm sure you were considering that until the last minute... how about just being happy Firmino is doing the business.

      1. King Sheep
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Was considering Bobby/Salah last week but went Kaku, glad I dodged the Kaku bullet this week though.

        Cheer up!!! lulz

    MANEEE!!

    Oh Captain, my captain 🙂

    1. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years

      U got balls

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years

      nice one

  14. Maddi Son
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Feels so good having Firmino and Mane right now.

    Just need Kane to finish off a good day.

  15. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Mane is a beast. One of those players like Sanchez that can score from absolutely nothing. Had him in at Saints and going to have to bite the bullet and double up with Firmino, possibly at the expense of Alli. Could also upgrade Ramsey if I still plan on downgrading Jesus but following yesterday's 9 pointer I might have to hold on.

    TLDR: Mane essential, is Alli disposable leaving no Spurs coverage?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Mane is The Best option at midfield atm. So Yes. But would wait till after the mci game unless he rises again

  16. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Quite fancied Fraser > Atsu & Salah > Mané for a -4, but out-priced by 0.1.

    Oh well.

  17. Inverjas
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Firminio and jesus > aguero and Chicharito for -4 , worst hit i've ever taken

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

    4. Ady87
      • 12 Years

      That's tragic! Unlucky!

    5. DoobNoob
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

  18. twoplustwo

    Arsenal are pathetic but I'd be thinking about selling Cout if I was Liverpool

  19. Boomerang V
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Burnley defence looking very solid. No way Kane is going to score.

  20. diesel001

    8 years, 8 months ago

    How are those Xhaka and Vardy bandwagons from GW1 going. FPL players never learn.....

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I can't believe people sold Firm!

    2. King Sheep
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Have Xhaka on bench, he wont be there long lol

  21. hogree
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    So Firmino hauls in 1 & 3 and I captain him in 2. Good times

  22. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Mane has been such an amazing buy. 😀

    Glad I didn't setlle for Salah + 0.5

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Happy with Bobby myself, almost went Salah

  23. G-Whizz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    8 years, 8 months ago

    3 - Firmino (44)
    2 - Mané (21)
    1 - Gomez (18)

    3 - Alderweireld (12)
    2 - Eriksen (11)
    1 - Vertonghen (10)

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Boom. Firmino, Eriksen and Davies owner!

      1. G-Whizz

        Shhh! The 90 isn't over yet! (Firmino, Eriksen and Kane here lol) 😆

  24. Bubz

    Salahto Mane could be worth the transfer

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

      Thinking exactly this

  25. HamezMace
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone know why Bellerin is playing left back, seemingly to accommodate Ox who knowingly wants to leave the club?

    1. L'Aeroplanino
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      only wenger will understand this logic

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Surely bellerin right back, Kolasinac left back much more natural?
        Not complaining as long as Kolasinac stays on the Arsenal bench, Mbemba is coming in for my team

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Because Wenger is deluded enough to think Ox is good (he isn't) and will stay (he won't)

      Personally want to see Ox go and Kola and Bellerin as the LWB / RWB combo.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Seems a more natural way to go, never understand why managers insist on making players fit a system, rather than create a system to fit the players

        1. 3Dog
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Agree with all the deluded Wenger talk. Got 3 LWB's in the team and he plays Bells there (again!). No wonder there is no shape to our team when being countered.

          1. 3Dog
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Biggest weaknesses of last 8 or so years, lack of defensive shape and spirit. So he plays at least 4 players out of position, and 3 that want to leave the club!

    Free Hit chip to "bench" KDB for Silva and that's paid off yesterday.

        Why do you say that?

        I'll tally up my pre/post Free Hit and we'll see if there was a nett gain/loss

    3. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Free hit should be saved for a week where some of the top teams won't play.

  27. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
