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.

    Kola>Bailly? Or save 1m and go jones?

    1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I'd go with Jones. He's a threat from set pieces too. Found himself amongst it a few times this season, couple headers over the bar and a couple scrambles

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Jones but why not keep Kola as could do well v Bournemouth as attacking wing back? Not tainted with today

    Do I need to WC or just take -8 on JWP to Mooy and Danilo to Jones? Did KDB to Eriksen last night

    Foster Elliot
    Bertrand Kolasinac Ake Danilo Long
    Eriksen Pogba Atsu Carroll JWP
    Lukaku Kane Firmino

    1. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Hit and save WC.

  3. KGFC
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Is there a "best" time to use the WC.... statistically speaking?

    How much of a diff does it make using in IB after GW3 vs GW 7?

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

      This anyone able to help?

    2. banskt
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      There is no "best" time. Depends on your team.

      personally i prefer now, as people are jumping on and off players so i try and increase my TV

      1. KGFC
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Same here... leaning towards using the WC this week before price rise and then to get the same player will need to compromise on others... already missed the Hegazi train 🙁

        1. Ninja Fury
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          played mine last night to avoid the KDB drop, now banking on Kane dropping and Firmino and Morata doing a double rise!

  4. juanmata8
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Foster | Elliot
    Danillo | Bailly | Daniels | Yoshida | Rosenior
    Eriksen | Pogba | Mane | Mooy | Carroll
    Kane | Lukaku | Quaner

    Did FT from KDB>Eriksen last night before drop...

    Should I WC this team or save the WC?

    1. banskt
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Take a hit to replace Kane -- this will not gain you points, you may even lose points because Kane can outscore your replacement in the next gameweek. But personally for me, -4 is better than losing 0.2m and unknown future points. Others may differ in opinion.

  5. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    WC or good?

    Foster Myhill
    Jones Hegazi Bertrand Dunk Long
    KDB Mane Ritchie Ince TC
    Kane Kaku Gabs

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

      I would.

      Your mid needs sorting, imo.

      1. Nomar
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Only KDB and Ince out and he's good. WC not necessary unless he really wants to make multiple changes.

  6. HALFSPACE
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Might get in Morata and (C) at LEI (A)

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      They were quite solid vs United. Just sat deep.

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      No,Leicester good defensively.

  7. Lady Yaya
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Don't usually post these on here but I'm having a tough time deciding this. My current team is:

    Fabianski, Elliot
    Kolasinac, Dawson, Mee, Stephens, TAA
    Eriksen, Salah, Atsu, Mikhitaryan, Carroll
    Kane, Lukaku, Abraham

    Thinking of WC to this:

    Fabianski, Elliot
    Cedric, Trippier, Jones, Dawson, 4.0
    Eriksen, Mikhitaryan, Salah, Hazard, Carroll
    Lukaku, Firmino, Abraham

    Do you think this is worth it? Thanks in advance

  8. Mr. Grv

    What do the avg score ?

    1. Mr. Grv

  9. merin
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    How would you get Kane into this team?

    Foster Elliot
    Valencia Tripper Yoshida Hegazi Mbemba
    Eriksen Alli Mkhitaryan Salah T.Carroll
    Lukaku Chicharito Mounie

    WC active , ITB: 0.8

    1. MTPockets
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Lose one of the mids

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

        Yes, I'm getting rid of either Eriksen or Alli, but that doesn't give me enough to get Kane, so I have to find funds elsewhere.
        Any suggestions?

        1. MTPockets
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Valencia to Jones, Spurs mid to someone like atsu, Chich to Kane? Not sure it's net better though

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

            Good suggestion!
            Not quite sure it's net better me neither.

    2. mbrewer94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Lukaku and Alli/Erkisen > Kane and Pogba

      1. juanmata8
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        this

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

        Really? Kane instead of Lukaku?
        I want both, tbh.

        But how can I find the funds?

  10. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    tempted to use WC - should I?

    DDG - Elliot
    Bertrand - Stephens - Daniels - Suttner - Long
    Eriksen - Willian - Ramsey - Fraser - TCarroll
    Kane - Lukaku - Firmino

    1 FT
    bank: 0.5

  11. MTPockets
    8 years, 10 months ago

    GW15-17 last season all over again with Kane. Just know if I sell him - boom.

  12. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Was it Hegazi's blunder that cost WBA the clean sheet?

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

      yes

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        1. Please Help I Don't Kn…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          But that's without Ayew coming off the bench forgot about that sorry.

    2. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Not arsed smashing the sky game.

    3. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Nice
      Many with liv cover then

  14. More Tragic
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Morata Lacazette Firmino

    front line allows you a stellar midfield

    Alli Eriksen Salah Mkhi

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Double up mid on Spurs even after wembley issue?!

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      what happens when Kane and Lukaku score?

      1. More Tragic
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        what happens when they don't

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          more than often they will

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

      Considering Morata Jesus Firmino myself.

  15. HNI
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Any idea why was Ramsey subbed at half time? Injury or Tactical?

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Tactical. There was a moment where he was in Liverpool's box when the ball was approaching Arsenal's final third.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Tactical

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Had a mare first half and formation change

    4. The Cloud Watcher
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Tactical I believe.

  16. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Why are people even talking about transfers before the INT break? So much could happen in the next 2 GWs

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Let people do..every -4 from others counts as having a torrid start thanks to kdb and kane decisions and stubborness to stick with them using underlying stats but ignores heavy pricing

  17. DoobNoob
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Bottomed

    Begovic / Elliot
    Jones / Cedric / Hegazi / 4m / 4m
    Erikson / Mkhi / Mane / Willian / RLC
    Lukaku / Lacazette / Chicharito
    1.4ITB 0ft

    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.

    1. Digital-Real
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Just remove Willian and that's a solid team.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      seriously?

  18. C'mon the Fylde
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Forster
    Ake/Yoshida/Danilo
    Ritchie/Pogs/MKH/Carroll/Erikson
    Kane/Lukaku

    Time to wildcard?

  19. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Reports coming in that Kane has kicked a guide dog at Wembley... More to follow

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Well atleast who could kick them well

    2. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      It's August, are you sure he didn't miss?

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        he was aiming for the blind guy

    3. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      12 match ban.

  20. Yome
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Is it risky to double up pool attack? I have mane but I want firmino, he looks irresistible

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Except Manutd no other team worth double up

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Klopp does rotate, it is annoying

    2. Chris_H
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I think Firmino is pretty immune to rotation so I'd consider it

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

      I've already got Salah and mane, would like to have Firmino over mane because of the price but mane looks like he will have a great season this year, as do the rest of the front 3

    4. Spag Bolasie
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yes of course. The most attacking team in the league, Bargain striker and on pens. With two midfielders who play upfront. It would be stupid not too.

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Yes they score a lot of goals like United. I think Firmino at this price is a must, shame I didn't start with him

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

      I have Salah but want Mane. Lots of us on the same boat - either pick one and stick or double up. (but no triple)

    6. aarrgghh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      doubled Mun and Liv and will be Che too after Hazard and happy with it

  21. Fuchs Mane Kante
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Dropping Troll the night, have him back in at cheaper price before next Gw.

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

    So I can see 3 good candidates to replace Kane...

    Jesus-least likeliest to rise this week but is playing for a attacking team and is a manager favourite and gets lots of chances but just got his season underway this week...

    Morata- very solid Chelsea team and the vocal point of this team, will be involved in most goals like Costa was last season, very talented and no one knows his potential yet & decent fixtures coming up

    Firmino- the point of a very dangerous Liverpool attack, is on penalties aswell, will be taken off some games due to UCL but most of Liverpools goals will go through him and they score for fun

    Who is your pick?

    1. Yome
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Morata, Firmino then Jesus for me

    2. The Cloud Watcher
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I would stick with Kane, but if you really want to change Morata looks to be your man.

  23. super zlatan
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Silly to do long > Mbemba as my FT?

    Team is

    Forster. Elliot
    Davies. Stephens. Daniels. Suttner. Long
    Eriksen. Mkhi. Willian. Atsu. Carrol
    Kane. Lukaku. Firmino.

    0.5 in bank.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I would save.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      save

    3. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Save

  24. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

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

    Out of this team Id change the GK, Stephens and Ake, willian and Jesus maybe. Worth Wildcarding?

  25. Rajveer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Current team:-

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

    Proposed WC team:-

    Forster Elliot
    Stephens Hegazi Jones Schindler Long
    Mkhi / Pogba Eriksen Salah D.Silva
    Carroll
    Lukaku Chicharito Morata

    Will pull the trigger by tonight..just wanted to confirm.. Can't afford to lose .4 TV on Kane and KDB...sorry for the long post..any thoughts appreciated...

  26. falafel
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Billy and Atsu (or another for 5m)
    or Jones and a midfielder for 6m, and who for 6m if so?

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Jones and Ritchie. Ritchie looked good without this week,has decent fixtures coming up.

      1. Speédy
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        *looked good this week

  27. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Tough captaincy choices this week

    Jesus worth a punt.Mounie maybe(Plays Ham)
    Lacazette has the best fixture though

    1. Digital-Real
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Not sure about Mounie. Not been impressed.

  28. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    52(including baps)- anyone know what gw rank that would be around?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      About 1m

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

        That's a surprise, average was 17 yesterday??

        1. G-Whizz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Yes but that was with yesterday's matches. Think you'll find the average is more like 42 now...

  29. GE
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Can afford RLC and Jesus -> Mkhi and Firmino (-4)
    (leaves me 0.0 itb). Good moves?

    Problems;
    1) I then have both Pogba and Mkhi
    2) I then have only one premium forward (Lukaku)

  30. pol
