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.

    Anyone who sold Salah for Pogba is a casual

      1. Pooodle
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Anyone who dumped Salah in general is mad

      Great week for you.

    So can we expect a Kane price drop?

    1. leocarter27
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No doubt about it. Probably 0.2/0.3

    2. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      0.3 incoming

    3. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Only if Bemba sells him.

    4. FPLtfs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Don't care. Decided to keep him. He will play, and score with those good fixtures.

      1. FDMS All Starz
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Rather sell them get him in for 0.3 less

    5. Think
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

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

        I will buy him then

  6. leocarter27

    8 years, 8 months ago

    If you thought u had a bad week. You could have wildcarded like me and got 36 pts...

    1. ksmith5666
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I got 32 pts after WC!

  7. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Would you WC this lot? Have 2FT though

    Forster -- Elliot
    Valencia Bertrand Dawson --- Mee crane
    Kdb Ritchie Willian mkhi -- Carroll
    Kane kaku mounie

    A: WC and get rid of kane,kdb,willian,Ritchie,mounie,Valencia

    B: do 3FTs for a -4

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

      3fts

      1. thericeking

        kdb-alli/erik
        kane-morata/jesus
        willi/ritchie-mane/salah

  8. SuperMario
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    so many bench points this week..

  9. Graceless Goof
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Lukaku, gabbi -> Morata, Firmino?

    Will monitor over the international break but Morata impresses me while Gabbi doesn't.
    Or focus on getting kolasinac out? 2 FTs

    1. Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

      Much more value (ans points incoming) in those than Kaku/Gab

    2. Pooodle
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'd keep Lukaku

  10. Alexis Nonsense
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    How many "Wenger Out" moments are Wenger going to give us before he's really OUT?

    He's giving everyone a reason to sack him all the time

    Not playing Lacazette, Kolasinac ?

    Sub off Sanchez at 67min ?

    Well played

  11. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Worth upgrading Chicharito to Firmino, or be patient? (have Salah)

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

      Patient IMO. Lot can happen in 2 weeks. Bilic may be out a new manager may sort things out defensively which will help West Ham offensively.

  12. Harper_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    KDB > Mané, Salah or Alli?
    Got Eriksen and Firmino

    1. Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Mané, season keeper

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

    57 all out with 24 on the bench. Two ML rivals going in to today had Morata and Firmino both (c) which is going to sting as I had Lukaku and they're both 24 pointers. Still think I've managed to scrape a lead!

  14. FPL Footy Show Pod
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kun to Firmino?

  15. Business Cat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Surely Wenger can't see out the next two years?

    It's car crash!

    1. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      He'll keep papering over the cracks with FA Cups

    2. fiveyears

      Groundhog day

  16. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Glad International break is coming up. Gives us time to reassess our teams

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

    Why the hell was Fraser benched? I wanna play him vs that Arsenal team

  18. DonTheSpecialOne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Bloddy hell Kane probably has to go now. Makes even more sense as the extra money comes Nice to upgrade both Gabbi and Ramsey

  19. Football Weekender
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kane... wow. Still not selling though... yet.

    On a more positive note, Kolasinac's no-show means Chancel Mbemba and his 9 points climb off my bench. Lovely stuff.

  20. Pino
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Wenger looks like Mr Bean

  21. Rash
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Don't know what I'm more peeved about triple spurs no alli selling salah Jesus on wc captain kaku. Chris wood costing me £391 on my bet. Also to add I'm extremely hungover..

  22. Rainer

    8 years, 8 months ago

    When does the Xhaka wagon implode?

    1. Pooodle
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      There should never have been one in the first place. He's garbage.

  23. leocarter27
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Best defender for 5.4 or less? Cheers lads just trying to gather some ideas

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

      Jones.

      1. Gw287
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Maybe Trippier. Didn't look up to much today but 5.4 spurs defender is great value. Watch out for the aurier transfer though! I have Jones and Trippier

  24. That Was Easy!
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Thinking I need to quit with this game for health reasons alone, who's with me?

  25. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    So with Kane looking likely to drop twice this week, who is everyone getting rid for? I personally like Jesus but pep is a twat

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I like Morata

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Morata and Bobby will likely see price rises

  26. Ha.
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    How did Everton perform yesterday? Was looking towards their defensive assets, but now not so sure. Also didn't see it as a good fixture for Kane, but there is hope?

  27. athreya
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    55 pts after wc. Pre wc team would have had 67:-(

    Still feel I am better off with this team.

  28. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kane 2
    Lukaku 0
    Aguero 1
    Lacazette 1

    451 the new 343

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

      Morata and firmino both scored well

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

      and jesus

  29. bojack
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    I'm sure the comparison has been made before, but Liverpool remind me of Keegan's Newcastle.

    You can score as many goals as you want but having a solid and settled defence is crucial and if you can't even decide who you're first choice keeper and fullbacks are, good luck.

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

      Klopp's lack of plan B is their undoing a lot of the time, neglects the defence and they get beat by the same sort of direct sides

    2. Football Weekender
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Probably true but it's wonderful to watch and fantastic for FPL 🙂

  30. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kane:

    A) Sell
    B) Keep

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

      sell
