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
      9 years, 28 days 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
        9 years, 28 days 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
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 28 days 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
        9 years, 28 days 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
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Showed the door for KDB. Kane is staying

    3. The Cloud Watcher
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      KdB long gone, Kane is staying.

    4. Football Heaven
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      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
        9 years, 28 days 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
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

  3. MEGPAL
    • 14 Years

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

  4. mikess
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 28 days 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
      9 years, 28 days 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
        9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

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

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

      depends on the other transfer though

  6. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days 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
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Definitely no WC required mate

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

      Why do you want to WC?

      1. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

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

    3. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Wc for price changes and no pool cover.

    4. mikess
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Gabbi to Firmino. Leave it

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

      Calm down

  7. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

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

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

      Not a bad way to look at things !

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Very strange transfers

    3. DoobNoob
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      didnt need to do it yet

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

        already done mate

        1. DoobNoob
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

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

  10. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

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

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

    Best 4.5 keeper? Thinking Fabianski.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Gomes could be a good shout

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

      Find the extra 0.5 and go Forster if on WC

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

      Begovic - makes saves

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

      My keeper 🙂

    5. Spag Bolasie
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

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

      Lacazette

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

        Surely not after what happened today?

        1. Torreslove
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

          he didnt play today

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      9 years, 28 days 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
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Maybe on the bench.

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          9 years, 28 days ago

          Will assess as he's been called up for Belgium

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

      Chicha is probably getting the boot from my team

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

        Bad move imo.

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

      Lukaku

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

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

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

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

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

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

    6. banskt
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

    7. The Cloud Watcher
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

    8. Spag Bolasie
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days 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.

  13. WUSS
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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

    Team up for wildcard?

  14. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Kane double drop this week?

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

      possibly

  15. Football Heaven
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days 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.

  16. el polako
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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

    1. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 28 days 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.

  17. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    What is the likelyhood of Kane dropping in price?

    1. banskt
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

      Will definitely happen since Morata and Firmino did well

    3. jiGGidyJ1
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      100%

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

    Why is bragging frowned upon here? I laugh if people brag more than anything. Be a sport!

  19. FC Lackless [BALEGIUM]
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Any baps for Salah or Eriksen?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      no

      1. FC Lackless [BALEGIUM]
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        cheers TM

  20. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Thoughts on tripling up on Liverpool front 3???

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

      Won't smash teams every week. Eggs, basket.

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

      I've done it. Most don't seem to like it though

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

    Foster( Elliot)
    Hegazi, Bailly, Cedric (Mbemba, Smith)
    Eriksen, Salah, Mooy, Mkhitaryan (Atsu)
    Morata, Lukaku, Firmino

    Any room for improvements?
    my wildcard is activated

    1. mikess
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Prefer Jones over Bailly for funds. Rest is canny

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

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

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

      Almost same team. I love it.

  22. adz0rz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days 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
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

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

    2. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 28 days 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.

      1. adz0rz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

    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?

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

      Fair play. 54, I'll take it.

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

      69 😉

    3. Holmes

      Another red arrow, ah!

    4. Pierce34
      • 11 Years

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

  24. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

      Price doesnt matter if we are not selling him 😉

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

  25. banskt
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    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?

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

      What's wrong with Valencia?

      1. banskt
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

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

  26. internal error
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    6 clean sheets in their last 7 league games for Liverpool.

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

      One man about to make it look better.

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

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

    3. Digital-Real
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      VVD on his way too!

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

    Jesus to Morata for free methinks

    1. banskt
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      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.

  28. DoobNoob
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Begovic / Elliot
    Jones / Cedric / Hegazi / 4m / 4m
    Erikson / Mkhi / Mane / Willian / RLC
    Lukaku / Lacazette / Chicharito
    1.4ITB

    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

  29. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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

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

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

  30. MEGPAL
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

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