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.

    I still don't get why the Ox is in demand. He's been awful this season

      So teams can meet their homegrown quota.

      Just this season?

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

        never stood out in previous seasons as well

        1. Licky
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

          Flashes of potential but generally a really poor player.

    Now we have 2 weeks of Kane bashing, lovely

    1. The Mandalorian

      Correction you have 2 weeks of Kane price drops, the bashing comes later.

    Nice one Kane (C) you really did punish the Luka and Kun captain's, knew I could rely on you

        +1
        A golden opportunity to stick it to the masses of Lukaku captainers.

    Tempted by the below WC team. 0.4m ITB - what do you think chaps?

    Trippier, Cedric, Jones
    Salah, Pogba, Alli, Richarlison
    Lukaku, Firmino, Morata

    1. Champione
      • 10 Years

      Davies looks very good

      1. thepeen555
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        But with rose due back and the new chap coming in - think He and trips will be out

      2. Mind över Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Davies or Trippier? Which to go for?

        1. Lone Wolf

          Wait IB nd we will get the answer

    2. mr messi
      • 16 Years

      Jones?

  7. FPL Marc
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Decided to wildcard after 2 awful weeks..... no more De Bruyne, Kane, Ward Prowse, Mounie or Ramsey.

    My logic with Kane is that he WILL get 20+ goals this season - easily - but so will Firmino and Morata and all that extra money can go into midfield.

    Currently thinking:
    Lloris, Elliot
    Jones, Monreal, Yoshida, Holgate/Lejeune/Naughton, 3.9 def
    Alli, Mane, Salah, Mooy, Carroll
    Lukaku, Morata, Chicharito

    Would you go:
    a) Firmino/Mkhitaryan/8m
    b) Morata/Salah/Mooy?

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

      a

    2. Lone Wolf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      A

  8. arndff_

    Let's take a little break from FPL, at least a day off, because GoT's season finale is coming in a few hours.

    You are more than excited, aren't you?

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years

      I am Heisenberg, I am!

    3. GENERATION X

      one doesnt ever break from fpl.

  9. Lone Wolf
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    2FT. Jesus, Chica > Morata, Firmino but...0,1 off!!!
    Worth downgrading Ake and do it for a hit?

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

    Is Pedro likely to get plenty of game time over the next few games?

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Defo no. Big risk

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

        Any recommended replacement in a similar price bracket?

        1. Lone Wolf
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 28 days ago

          8mil? Manu mids but theyre a bit over so maybe Silva ot cheaper Ritchie

  11. marquinhos

    Evening all, what are your plans for Kane?

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 9 Years

      1. thepeen555
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Yeah kola is good but wenger is an arse and will waste him

    2. Lone Wolf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      No need so keep. May be usefull later. First season I can say that after 3 weeks

    3. FPLAdmiral
      • 9 Years

      Tempted!

  13. F4L

    What would people consider a good OR at this point in the season?

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

      If you're not 1st you're last

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

      Anything in the top 1m IMO. You are well placed and a few good GWs would get you flying very quickly. If you are WC this week it is a very important WC IMO

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

        sat at 292k. Decent enough start I suppose 🙂

    3. More Tragic
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      700k

    4. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Top 2 mill is fine...I was worse off this time last yr and got under 56k.

    5. Jigger & Pony
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      500k

    6. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season kr…
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Would've thought sub 100k ......

  14. Pooodle
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Anything obvious to do here or could I save a transfer? 0.5m ITB.

    De Gea
    Stephens, Dawson, Suttner
    Alli, Eriksen, Willian, Carroll
    Lukaku, Jesus, Firmino

    Elliot, Mooy, Ake, Long

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

    Is Willian nailed anymore?

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      No

    2. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Difficult to say. He played well today and in general, has been better than Pedro this season.

    3. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Everyone assumes he'll lose his place to Haz, Im not so sure. I think a Willian/Pedro both wind up with the same minutes this yr.

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

      No

  16. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Do auto-subs usually take this long?

    Still waiting for TCarroll's 3 points to come in for Lukaku.

    1. Postman Ty
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Lukaku played...

      1. thepeen555
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Yeah this and poorly

      2. Jam0sh

        Heh you went for it

    2. Kiwivillan

    Which team? Tempted to wildcard

    Current (A);

    Foster

    Subs; Myhill Ake TCarroll Hunemeier

    B (WC team);

    Foster
    Bertrand Jones 4.4

    A or B? Many thanks in advance.

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

      I like B better

      1. Danstoke82

        Cheers!

  18. Fred54

    9 years, 28 days ago

    200K OR increase to.1.4M.for scoring just above average.

    This is gonna be a brutal season.

    This time last year I was 100K OR.

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

      dropped to 2,5M here. Happy days ( 38 )

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

      Yeah, it's not going well. I'm 228k - my worst rank at this stage ever by some distance

    3. Pooodle
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      I was 1m after about 12 weeks last year and came in the top 10k overall - no need to panic.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        This

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

      1st part of season it's all about points gap rather than ranking gap. i'm 15 pts behind 10k but only 23pts ahead of 500k & 35pts ahead of 1m. so 12pts covering 500k places.

    5. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years

      awww diddums

  19. Frank Black
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Kane's august curse strikes again but now it's over people are going to mass sell him and he's probably going to score against Everton already.

    GW 5 is definitely the moment you want to bring Kane in, though. By then he'll be 12.4M and almost a differential.

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Yeah I reckon so

    2. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      If Kane blanks against Everto which is very possible he can drop to 12.3

      1. thepeen555
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 28 days ago

        Yeah fast

  20. General_Zod
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    If ever there was a reason to hold on to a wild card, it was today.

    Learnt diddly squat and there's a transfer window to close.

    1. More Tragic

      post of the day

    2. Fred54

      Tbh I haven't seem anyone benefit wildly on a WC.

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

        I did, greatly

    3. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      play that card and wait to see the incomings and the outgoings - a lot have done that already

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

        That doesnt make sense to me. New players wont have form and some big hitters yet to play or play enough to figure out what theyll do.

        After gw6 seems a lot better imo.

  21. KGFC
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    Is anyone from Man City essential? Points are too spread out and not worth having someone like DSilva for 8.1 to provide only an assist... thoughts?

    1. thepeen555
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Nope

    2. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Points are non existent. Rotation is a joke

  22. rdamjan

    What to do with Ramsey? To Mikhi for -4 worth it? 8.5 to spend.

    1. Sahil Yadav
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Mkhi worth it.

    2. rjcv177
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 28 days ago

      Wait for IB and news on arsenal. They have d fixtures and ramsey was looking good before today. Mykh is good, pogba also important.

  23. rjcv177
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 28 days ago

    IF no big problems on IB, is this good enough for a -8?

    Salah, kane, mounie
    To
    Alli, firmino, chicha

    1. Sacked in the Morning
      • 13 Years

      Why Salah to Alli?

  24. Ocrana
    • 17 Years

    Next GW:

    Carroll or Ritchie
    Dawson (WBA) or Mee ?

    By the way i have Ramsey, what happened ? Injury? Should i be concerned lol?

    1. tsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Take this as an abject lesson strikers who are on form have a higher chance of scoring again vs august curse. 🙂

  26. Dr Van Nostrand

    Week 1 top in Xhaka is the top out now. FPLers are the ficklest folk around

  27. Weasel51

    9 years, 28 days ago

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

    If i was to wildcard id do
    Jesus to Firmino
    Get rid of Willian Salah Stephens Ake Hart.
    Is it worth it?

  30. Danstoke82
