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.

    49 points, maybe a green arrow?

    1. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Definitely a large red

      Average is 41

        • 10 Years

        Yeah, but close to average, still there's a chance of red?

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          49 isn't close to 41

            Ahh ok, cool then. Thx TM!

    Hold Kane or sell for Morata?

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

      If it's a free transfer sell, if not hold.

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

      Morata. Talent always wins.

      1. My Name Is Pepu
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        This. He's easily the best ST in the PL right now. People will realize this sooner rather than later.

    3. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I have Morata but I won't sell Kane now if I had him. August is gone, the goals are gonna come now 🙂

      1. Football Heaven
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        They will but for the price...

        1. My Name Is Pepu
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Tbh it all boils down to what you feel about your team. If someone feels selling Kane would help improve their teams in the comic week, sell. If everything else seems alright, keep.

    4. StormCrispy

      Hold Kane, after everton next week TOT have 4 easy games

      1. el polako

    Are people doing their transfers now or waiting?

    1. FDMS All Starz
      • 10 Years

      Oh mr Kane is making me want to do it this second

    2. Dr. DOOM

      Wc done and dusted.

  4. FantasyNik123

    8 years, 8 months ago

    I...I....I have.... I have no idea what to make of this Kane situation. It's doing my head in I'm going to be thinking about it for the next two weeks. Such a great player, creates fantastic chances, but no end product.

    It's mind-boggling. I will stick with him though. I have to. I just. Wow. This is insane.

    They really should be teaching the Kane paradox at universities. It's crazy. Wow.

      • 9 Years

      Calm down man ya knacker.

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

        I can't. It's so confusing.

    2. MTPockets
        8 years, 8 months ago

        1/8 budget tied up in 3 blanks is a problem.

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

      Which is a better combination?
      A) Mane-Chicharito-Cedric(bench)
      B) Salah-Firmino-Rosenior(bench)

      Tough one imo

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        B easy

    4. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I was determined to hit the wildcard button, but besides Willian and Kola there isn't much I want to change...

      Save for another day surely?

      Foster / Elliot
      Kola / Stephens / Jones / Mee / Lowe
      Alli / Salah / Mkhi / Willian / Carroll
      Kane / Lukaku / Quaner.

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        Kola could do well if plays wing back v Bournemouth

        1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          That's what I am thinking

    5. KGFC

      Guys a little help pls...

      Have 2 FTs, if I play the WC this week, will I get 1 FT in next GW or 2 FTs?

      Thanks!

      Foster/Elliot
      PvA Yoshida Cedric Hegazi Mariappa
      Salah Eriksen Atsu Carroll Tadic
      Lacazette Lukaku Jesus

      2FTs and 0.5 ITB - what would you do?

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Good team. Maybe Mariappa to Mbemba for the price rise.

        PVA needs to go

      2. homoud0072
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        laca to morata and save the extra FT

    7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      So is Morata an option? 10.0 looks OK for someone with pretty much no competition up front? Even just for a few weeks until /if Kane recovers his shooting boots

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Poor fixtures for Chelsea, not sure. I think the jury is still out.

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

        That's my plan, I'll bring Kane back in when he hits form.

      If you had Mane, would you get firminho as well?

      1. FantasyNik123
        • 12 Years

        I'm thinking about it, yes.

          I wanna wild card but I keep forgettin' what team I wrote down and the points they'll be gettin' and then it's back to reality, woop there goes Mané and Kane keeps on blankin' etc etc

    18. Lallana_
      • 12 Years

      Had a great week but may consider wildcarding. Jesus and Kane too much money for what they are producing.

    19. Frozen flying mammoth
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Would you be happy with this team? Don't want to wildcard but not sure if I should take a -8 hit for Kane & Fraser to Firmino & a top MID.

      Foster, Elliot
      Yoshi, Stephens, Cedric, Jones, Long
      Eriksen, Mkhi, Fraser, RLC, Carroll
      Lukaku, Kane, Jesus
      BANK: 0.9m

    20. Positive vibes

      WC failed, captain failed too and lose my H2H game.
      But it just a game.
      Hope better result in next GW.

      Cheers 🙂

        Same here, terrible week for a wildcard, my team was really bad before and would have scored low but probably close to what I got this week. Still fairly happy with who I have in now atleast.

      Kane can't score in August confirmed.

    24. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Is Kane having a Benteke season? All stats and no end product/points.

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

        He'll come good. 3 games without scoring does not make him crap. Benteke is an above average striker and very one-dimensional. His box touches come from the ball being lumped into him so they are poor quality touches. Kane's box touches are generally of a much higer quality.

      2. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Stats can be misleading.

    25. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      On wildcard, would appreciate thoughts:

      Gomes // Elliott

      Alonso // Maguire // Jones // Lowe // Mbemba

      Sanchez // Pogba // Richarlison // Mooy // Carroll

      Kane // Morata // Chicarito

      - Having second thoughts about lack of Liverpool attack, but only 2 home games in next six and Klopp likely to rotate around CL games.
      - Also torn about lack of Lukaku, but can't see him hauling in any games between now and GW11 (apart from Palace at home maybe), also Pogba should take pens now after the miss vs Leicester.
      - Kane poor form is also a worry, but surely it's only a matter of time before he starts hauling.
      - Lack of City attack also giving me second thoughts, but Jesus/Aguero rotation and Silva not being nailed on means I'll probably hold off.
      - Obviously if Sanchez leaves this gets ripped up, but I only see him a short term option for the next 4-5 games, if he does stay at Arsenal.

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

        Prepare to rip this up, Sanchez surely has to have had enough?

    26. ViperStripes

      • 16 Years

      Lucky bench. Kolasinac didn't play so Mariappa 1st bench also didn't play. Quaner won't give me valid formation so Daniels 3rd bench will come on for 7. Woo hoo.
