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.

    The August curse on Kane continues....

    🙁

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

      Who will be ballsy enough to pick him again at the start of next season lol

    2. mikess

      September next gameweek. Was there a similar scenario last season on FFS regarding Kane/August? Can't seem to remember

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

        got injured

  2. Feloh

    kane and kdb owners, are you to taking the 0.4M drop in TV. Definately kicking them out myself

    1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Not on Kane. If i had him, I'd keep. However.... If he can drop a few, I'll be getting him in

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

        well you don't know the pain man, I have alli as a cover in case he explodes, Kane / kdb > alli / morata

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Showed the door for KDB. Kane is staying

    3. The Cloud Watcher
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      KdB long gone, Kane is staying.

    4. Football Heaven
      • 9 Years

      On wc so getting rid until price drops. Although might go without because his price is ludicrous and morata and Jesus will still score points, maybe not as many, but with the funds elsewhere it should come good.

      1. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        You really need to have a chat with yourself re the disgusting comment about disabled children. I can only assume that you are little more than a child yourself but if you're not you should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself.

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

      Bought him this week.
      Keeping no matter what he drops.
      One good week & he rises.

  3. Dragon Arcana

    If I have to see McGregor's snot one more time...

  4. mikess
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Hegazi and Sanchez >Alonso and Salah - 4

    You know your wildcard went tits up when you are contemplating a hit the week after

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

      Wow Sanchez on a wc before he even played is a risky move, especially as he holds up so much funds which can change ur squad a lot...I like those moves though

      1. mikess
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Was a punt. I expected arsenal to grab a goal. He did start.

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

      Would keep Sanchez unless he gets sold during IB.
      They rotate well with Spurs, and I am sure they will strike back.

  5. Man Getting Hit By Football
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Who here would do Gabbiadini -> Firmino for -4?

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

      depends on the other transfer though

  6. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Calm down or WC this lot??

    FoRster (Elliot)
    Bertrand, Dawson, Mee (Dann, Long)
    Alli, Eriksen, Mkhi, Atsu (Carroll)
    Lukaku, Jesus, Gabbi
    1.5m ITB

    Thank you

    1. MFC86
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Definitely no WC required mate

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Why do you want to WC?

      1. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Want Mane, Morata and get rid of Dann/Mee maybe

    3. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Wc for price changes and no pool cover.

    4. mikess
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Gabbi to Firmino. Leave it

    5. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Calm down

  7. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Please don't sign Mr Aurier (Angsty Trippier owner)

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

    Firmino and Morata will both see double rises this INT break, possibly even triple

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'd wait on Morata. Just want to give Kane another home game. He would be really hard to get back in.

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

    Kane + kdb to morata + eriksen. already done for -4. if you can't catch the pts, avoid the price drops and catch the rises.

    1. MFC86
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Not a bad way to look at things !

        Very strange transfers

      • DoobNoob
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        didnt need to do it yet

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

          already done mate

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

            'didn't need to' i know youve done it

      There is no Kane August curse, and he will prove it next season. 🙂

      Best 4.5 keeper? Thinking Fabianski.

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Gomes could be a good shout

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

          Find the extra 0.5 and go Forster if on WC

        • diesel001
          • 9 Years

          Begovic - makes saves

        • Davido989
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          My keeper 🙂

        • Spag Bolasie
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Elliot, Foster, Fab or Gomez. Pick 2 of them. Never spend more than 4.5m on a gk. First rule of Fantasy football

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

        WHo're people thing of captaining next gw?

        Chicha (c) in MNF is tempting me. 🙂

        He was inches of scoring this gw as well.

            • 13 Years

            Surely not after what happened today?

              • 14 Years

              he didnt play today

        2. @persecuted_by_mods
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Now the Kaku Kane auto captaincy will be gone for most people i might cheekily go for hazard

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

              Maybe on the bench.

              1. @persecuted_by_mods
                  8 years, 8 months ago

                  Will assess as he's been called up for Belgium

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

              Chicha is probably getting the boot from my team

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

                Bad move imo.

            3. F4L
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Lukaku

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

                Not for an away game surely. Stoke have Shawcroos,Zouma and Martins indi in defense now with Fletcher protecting.

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

                  they gave quite a few chances away against Arsenal. Lukaku wont be bullied either

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

              No clue really. No one looks ideal. Mane looks fixture proof though, but I don't have him.

            5. banskt
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              The armband goes back to Lukaku. (Was on Jesus this week).

            6. The Cloud Watcher
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Not making that decision until the internationals are done and dusted and I know who's been injured 😮

            7. Spag Bolasie
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Shouldnt even be in the team. An awful team, where he's not involved in build-up, hardly touches the ball, chances come from rebounds which isn't a sustainable.

          • WUSS
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Foster / Elliot
            Stephens Alonso Davies /Long Francis
            Ritchie Pogba Debruyne Willian /Caroll
            Kane Moonie Lukaku

            Team up for wildcard?

          • Weeb Kakashi
            • 10 Years

            Kane double drop this week?

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

              possibly

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

            Foster Elliott
            Yoshida Davies mbemba hegazi jones
            Pogba salah eriksen atsu carroll
            Morata firmino Jesus

            On wc so would wait for Kane price to drop then get him in.

          • el polako
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Kane to Morata.
            After 3 captaincy fails in row I got enough of that muppet.

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

              Understandable.

              It's the point now where you either sell and move on or keep until he comes good again, accepting his price will drop.

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

            What is the likelyhood of Kane dropping in price?

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

              i would say a drop of 0.2m over 2 weeks.

            2. Effendi007
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Will definitely happen since Morata and Firmino did well

              Prefer Jones over Bailly for funds. Rest is canny

              • 14 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Salah and Mooy I'm not keen on, but it's a strong squad. Plenty of points in there

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

                Why not Salah? He's been involved in about 50%of Liverpool goals. Yes he's wasteful but they create enough chances to make up. Want to know your views on this.

                1. Spag Bolasie
                  • 8 Years
                  8 years, 8 months ago

                  this. the guy makes constant runs into the box, has chances every game. Technically not as good as Mane, but will outscore him in fantasy.

            3. Dr. DOOM
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Almost same team. I love it.

          • adz0rz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            De Gea (Elliott)

            Danilo / Cedric / Daniels / (Mee, Dunk)

            KDB / Pogba / Willian / Redmond / (Carroll)

            Lukaku / Kane / J. Rodriguez

            Not really sure what to make of all this, my main 3 areas of concern are Kane, KDB and Danilo's rotation.

            Both Kane and KDB's stats indicate they're playing well, topping lots of lists of chances created, shots, touches in the box,etc but they're scoring no points!!

            I'd also like to bring Hazard in for Willian when he starts to play..

            Thinking of maybe doing;

            KDB > Eriksen
            Kane > Firminho

            although i reckon i'll be kicking myself when KDB and Kane start producing!

            1. falafel
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              I just activated my wildcard and got rid of both Kane and kdb

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

              KDB out is your first priority really.

              He's playing in a position where he cannot possibly replicate what he did last season.

              Kane is still Spurs main man up top. He'll come good and likely when he does he will go medieval on someone and grab a major haul that his sellers will miss out on.

              I fully understand the Kane frustration, though, as he's been my captain the last 3 weeks and it's been extremely vexing.

                8 years, 8 months ago

                Can we really wait for that though? he will be dropping in price i'm sure!

            My Alli (c) punt worked. Had a feeling! Saved my GW really, after 17 yesterday I'll be on around the 50 mark today. How did everyone else do?

              • 15 Years

              46. Was looking at 53 before Davies conceded but it wasn't to be.

            Come on guys start transferring out Kane. I already have, lets crash his price for the people keeping him

              Price doesnt matter if we are not selling him 😉

              Helps non-owner though, they can buy at cheap rate

            I have 1 FT, 1.0m itb and the following players I don't like to keep in my team:

            Dummett / Hennessey / Valencia / Ritchie / Mounie.

            Is it worth a WC to replace them?

              What's wrong with Valencia?

                Not value for money. After 3 captain options, I want my players to be the best bang for buck.

              One man about to make it look better.

              I still found a way to get no points from them 😀 (TAA owner)

              I would love to do that, but have other concerns (Dummett / Hennessey / Valencia / Ritchie / Mounie). But they are not reason enough to bring out the WC. Tough decisions.

            Begovic / Elliot
            Jones / Cedric / Hegazi / 4m / 4m
            Erikson / Mkhi / Mane / Willian / RLC
            Lukaku / Lacazette / Chicharito

            Would you wildcard this? So unsure as to what to do.
            Want to change keeper, two strikers, willian, and potentially the 4m defenders as well. 0ft

            wish I had listened to the legend WAXYS and gone Rooney instead of that mug.

              Where is WAXYS? been eerily quiet on here without him. More pleasant, but quieter.

            If you told me at the beginning of the season that I'd be contemplating Kane to Firmino 3 weeks in.
