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.

    71 pts with Kane (C)

      Relax pal. Well done on the score.

      I, on the other hand, am overjoyed at my 46 points with Lukaku (C) 😀

    Does this look like a wildcard?

    Foster
    Danilo-Jones-Stephens
    De Bruyne-Mane-Ramsey-Mooy
    Kane-Lukaku-Gabbi
    (Elliot-Tarroll-Suttner-Long)

    1ft 0.0itb

    1. Davido989

      Nope. Just do KDB to Eriksen and be patient IMO.

        Thanks berbs, think danilo will have to go also

    Was Morata really good today or just lucky?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Not the best but will get better and will be involved in the points for a title challenging team

      1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        He's on my radar. When Haz is back, he could be very deadly

        1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

          Ignore arsenal and spurs and city players

  4. Rajveer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Foster Elliot
    Hegazi Stephens Daniels Long Hunemeier
    KDB Salah Eriksen Atsu Carroll
    Kane Chicharito Lukaku

    Would u wildcard this team??

    My thoughts are getting rid of Kane, Atsu, KDB ,Daniels and the 4.0 defenders...and get Mane, Pogba,Morata,Jones,Schindler..

  5. Unsuccessful

    1. TooDifficuIt
      • 10 Years

    2. @persecuted_by_mods

    3. OldBenKenobi

    4. Speédy
      • 10 Years

      No,Hoedt may take his place.

  8. mr messi
    • 16 Years

    Kola or Danilo out first?

    1. aarrgghh
      • 10 Years

      kola their only att. threat,I'm keeping

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        but it's Arsenal..... and their defence

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Danilo

    3. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Danilo

  9. Stupendous
    • 14 Years

    Stones TAA Kola Xhaka Kane Crouch RLC KDB

    Spend 8 and 4 moves or Wildcard time???

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      WC

      7 of them need to go.

  10. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    What to do with this lot? Thinking of saving FT as no clear cut options have emerged I feel. 0.5m in the bank.

    Foster
    Stephens - Yoshida - Hegazi
    Mane - Alli - Mkhitaryan - Phillips
    Aguero - Kane - Chicharito

    Elliot - Carroll - Rosenior - Long

    1. Davido989
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Swallow price and get Lukaku back.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        What has he done to get him back?

        He's up against some good defenses now and none of that trash that the Hammers and Swans dished up. Lukaku and Fraser out was a success.

        Shame Chicha did't score that 1 on one.

    2. That Was Easy!
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Looks solid. I'd hold.

    3. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Stick for a minute mate

    4. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      gotta figure one of your Saints defenders could be at risk from Hoedt and you've got 2 non-playing defenders already.

  11. OldBenKenobi

    Is Alonso due 1 bps?

    Bottomed

    I know a lot of these are flying around, but do I hit the WC button after a 34-pter? Not a single goal or assist this week.

    Foster
    Stephens, Bertrand, Jones
    Eriksen, Pogba, Willian, Phillips
    Kane, Lukaku, Gabby

    Elliot; T Carroll, Mee, Long

    1. Garlana

      Nah it still looks good, try and get a pool player.

      1. That Was Easy!
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Gabby > Firmino for a hit? 1.5 ITB but maybe could just hold until after MC

    2. Pierce34
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Doesn't look bad, just unlucky. Hold.

  14. KeepCalm
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Alright, who to get rid of first time...

    A. Kane
    B. Gabbi
    C. Willian
    D. Lukaku
    E. Ritchie

    Replacement suggestions?

    1. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Probably wouldn't get rid of any, Willian maybe.

      1. KeepCalm
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Gabbi or Kane? I got Alli so thinking of getting rid one of them

    2. markmcr
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Lukaku...seriously? Slow down

    3. C'mon the Fylde
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Show us your team. We don't know who you have.

      1. KeepCalm
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Forster
        Dawson Jones Lowe
        Alli Willian Mane Ritchie
        Gabbi Lukaku Kane
        Caroll Mee Long

        1. C'mon the Fylde
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

          I'd get rid of Willian.

  15. Effendi007
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Was thinking of doing KDB to Sanchez but after this game would heavily downgrading KDB to get Firmino or possible Morata be better for next month ?
    Thanks in advance

  16. C'mon the Fylde
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Forster
    Ake, Yoshida, Danilo(Daniels, Godson)

    Ritchie, Pogba, MKH, Carroll, Eriksen

    Kane(c) Lukaku (Rodriguez)

    Keep or make changes?

  17. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Those who captained Kane and are complaining, think about Lukaku captainers ffs

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      And what could've been if he had scored the penalty. Brutal!

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        yep exactly! The way the penny drops I suppose

    2. tafrère
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      At least Lukaku captainers can celebrate the fact that Kane blanked. Kane captainers had a lot of hopes before the game. It reminds me of last year duel Aguero-Ibra on GW3.

  18. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    If you had to keep only one, which would it be?

    a) Kane

    b) Lukaku

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Obviously Luka

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      see what happens in the iNT break

    3. Pierce34
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      See whether the internationals make up your mind for you.

  19. Beatle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Happy to hold onto Kane now that August is over

  20. LǝgleSs e|even
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Alli or Eriksen?

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Pick one and stick.

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      flip a coin

    3. TooDifficuIt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      no right answer get the one you like

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      I would still say Eriksen (Alli owner)

  21. ooooo
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Would like to get a few more opinions

    Hart
    Stephens/Ake/Davies/Lowe
    Willian/Mkhi/Salah
    Kane/Jesus/Lukaku

    52 points
    Reason to wildcard

    1. ooooo
      • 9 Years

      *?

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      I'd save. Good team

  22. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Pre-WC

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

    Post WC

    Foster / Elliot
    Tripper / Cedric / Jones (Naughton / Lowe)
    Mane / Alli / Salah / Mkhi / Atsu
    Lukaku / Morata (Quaner)

    WORTH PRESSING THE WC BUTTON?

  23. falafel
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    I have no Man City coverage, is that a problem?

    1. Ode
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      No

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      I have no Man City. Can't have them all. Enough points to go around.

    3. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Not rn

  24. Ode
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Ramsey owners, sell or keep?

    I'm thinking of keeping him, annoyed how he should've scored against Stoke and good fixtures ahead

    1. Les Bleus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      No question he won't start next game. Sell imo

  25. jimmy12
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    whos more likely to keep CS next gameweek?

    *Swansea* v Newcastle
    *Southampton* v Watford

    1. Ode
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Southampton

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Home teams

    3. Pierce34
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Watford 😛

  26. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Looks like Im getting 49 pts (45 after hit) with (K)ane. Could have been worse right?

    1. Dickie1898
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Same. Should be ok

  27. eoan
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    2 ~30 or less point gameweeks in a row. http://imgur.com/a/NCFFW Unlucky or bad team? Ramsey for sure out.

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Not a bad team, not great. Very unlucky.

    2. OldBenKenobi
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      ouch on that bench

  28. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Naughton looks a stellar pick with upcoming fixtures

    1. HALFSPACE
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Agreed

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Yep, he's in my WC draft.

  29. +
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Thinking about wildcarding to take advantage of price rises/falls and also cos it'll stop me being bored for the next two weeks. Here's my team:

    Foster/Elliot
    Jones/Stephens/Hegazi/TAA/Long
    Eriksen/Mane/Mkhi/Phillips/Carroll
    Kane/Jesus/Gabbi

    The problems: 1) Hegazi is the only defender who looks nailed to start 2) Gabbiadini isn't gonna get 90 mins each week 3) it seems silly at this point to continue without Lukaku

    I spent my FT yesterday on KdB > Mane; so wildcard: yes or no?

  30. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Gonna sell Kane for GW4 only.

    Sell now at 12.5 using my FT. Pick up a striker with a better fixture than Everton (A) as Kane would have - maybe Lacazette, Morata or a City striker. Captain them. Rebuy Kane for 12.2, 12.3 or whatever he drops to in time for SWA, WHU, HUD, BOU.
