Saturday’s events conclude at the bet365 as Manchester United bid to reclaim the Premier League top spot with a victory at Stoke City.

Jose Mourinho’s side are awash with major Fantasy talent as Romelu Lukuku heads into the match as the top captain pick for a fourth successive Gameweek.

Over 179,000 (37%) back the Belgian with the armband who is under pressure to deliver after goals from the next three most popular picks – Harry Kane, Alexandre Lacazette and Alvaro Morata – earlier in the day.

Paul Pogba also boasts a swell of support. Owned by 1.8 million (37.5%), he wears the armband for over 203,000 managers this evening.

Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan goes into the game as the most signed midfielder ahead of Gameweek 4, having claimed another 236,000 owners.

With Ander Herrera recalled to the Man Utd starting XI, it could be that Pogba is shifted up behind Lukaku this evening, with Mkhitaryan starting wide on the right.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Anyone dare to think Morata could be a better option than Kane over the next few weeks as Chelsea only have FC Grotbags in the CL?

    1. JONALDINHO
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane won't be rotated as he has decent fitness unlike Morata who is used to bench cameos

  2. JONALDINHO
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How nailed is Davies. Rose has meant to be returning the last year or so and Davies has been irresistible for Spurs. Is he safe until gw7?

    1. Ramboros
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Tottenham is the most guaranteed team in the league to rotate fullbacks.

      Rose was supposed to be back 5 months ago. Nobody knows when he'll play again.

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Has to be

    3. super zlatan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Rose has supposedly been returing for ages.
      Get Davies. He was also taking some corners today.

      1. JONALDINHO
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Will he rise tonight. His index on fpl is unreal for a defender and has 3 simple cs opportunities. Just don't want him rotated

    4. Gargamel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hard to say with 100% certainty, but seems likely and he's definitely worth the gamble

      1. JONALDINHO
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, was short .1 to do Ake to Davies for this gw and to see him get 14 pts is a real sucker punch

    5. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes he is nailed. Rose is weeks away

      1. JONALDINHO
        9 years, 1 month ago

        When is rose fit again?

    6. MikeDuff
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think Davies is better than Rose tbh

      1. Bob_the_builder
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Evem if Rose gets fit, his comments would ensure that he would toil before earning his place back.It's Bavies' place to lose.

        1. JONALDINHO
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Seems the case, I've come to my desicion now

  3. El Lobito 10
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Got Kane and Jesus. Jesus>Lukaku?

    Think big Rom could destroy his old team next week at OT.

    1. MTPockets
      9 years, 1 month ago

      See how midweek CL games go.

    2. Beavis
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No.

  4. super zlatan
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on these trades for -4

    Mhkt & Willian > Salah & Gross

    1. JONALDINHO
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No way to knee jerky- Mkhi will consistently roll in those assists and Gross is one week bandwagon

      1. super zlatan
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Need to get rid of Willian though.

        How about lukaku, Willian > morata and salah

    2. Beavis
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nah. Just bin Willian.

      1. super zlatan
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Need to raise funds to upgrade Willian to Salah though

  5. DA Minnion (Former great)
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Ideal front 3 on wildcard.?

    1. super zlatan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane. Morata. Firmino

      1. Chris_White
        9 years, 1 month ago

        this

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      9 years, 1 month ago

      different every single GW

      1. Sharkytect
        9 years, 1 month ago

        This

    3. Cok3y5murf
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No such thing. Many good picks. But Kane being one of them would be ideal.

    4. Qaiss
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I chose Kane, Lacazette and Lukaku

  6. Pavsboot
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Danilo to BDavies or Gabbi + Danilo to 4m def and Firmino/Vardy for a -4.

    Second option leaves me with only 3 playing defenders but I'll be wildcarding in the next couple of weeks anyway.

    1. johnnys balloons
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Still -4 is -4. And danilo played even with walker and mendy in team. But BDavies is better fpl option, definitely

  7. tafrère
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Who to replace Mané with, I have £0.9 itb :

    A) Direct swap : Salah (+£0.4) or Coutinho (+£0.7)
    B) City coverage : David Silva (+£1.4) or De Bruyne (-£0.4)
    C) Trippling up Spurs offense : Eriksen (-£0.1)

  8. Beavis
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Morata or Jesus?

    1. Cok3y5murf
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Morata

      1. super zlatan
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Morata

    2. beetlejuice
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Morata

    Would you rather Davies or Alli if you have Eriksen/Kane?

    1. super zlatan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Probably Alli

      But I have Davies , eriksen and Kane and happy with it.

    2. ronty
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Davies easily..

    3. RealSocialDads

      Davies

      Davies. Spreads the love a bit better.

    6. Pierce34

      Davies

      1. Pierce34

        What about if you only have Eriksen and Davies? 😀

    7. MikeDuff

      Davies

    15. JONALDINHO
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think it's pretty clear Davies is the right call!

  10. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Big concern about Manes red is how it effects Liverpool.

    When he went to Afcon they were dire. Have two of their attacker so could do without a dip in form.

    1. XabiAlonso
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Couthino was injured then so at least this time oh hang on

    2. MikeDuff
      9 years, 1 month ago

      When they lost Mane all pace wasn't gone though. This season Coutinho comes straight in and they still have Salah to stretch the opposition

    3. Danno - Emre Canada
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Got a 130 mil back up now

  11. stat
    9 years, 1 month ago

    People with Dann, are you going to play him against Southampton in GW 5?

    1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Gonna throw him out as soon as possible

      1. stat
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I have 2 FT and I'm actually contemplating keeping him for the next GW and then dumping him for Naughton. I want to bring in Davies for Bertrand, but I'm 0.1M short so to do it I'll probably have to downgrade Richarlison.

    2. Detweiler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Got rid of him this week. Far too expensive for his returns when people like Jones are similar price.

        I'll go with appreciate and thank you very much

  13. zes
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Any Chelsea fans/people who've watched the Chelsea games? How good does Morata looks? He seems like he could be an excellent pick imo but I haven't watched him much. Amazing stats at Juve/Madrid, adapted well to PL, Chelsea focal point ... looks great value at 10.1. Would bring him in in an instant if I could have 4 strikers (don't know who to shed from Firmino, Kane, Kaku).

    Is he as good as he seems or is it just hype? Haven't had a chance to watch him really this season so would love to get the perspective of someone who has.

    1. Sunny 😎
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He is pretty good and Chelsea are improving too but still a little sloppy. Once Hazard and Willian both were on the field, chelsea looked so much better only for the final pass to let them down.

      Once Morata & Bokayako start to gel well with the rest you can expect a lot of goals.

    2. johnnys balloons
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He played well... with his head. When ball comes to his feet he is not that good. The guy scored 3 and assist 2 goals and all with his head!! Just give the boy high ball

  14. Please Help I Don't Kn…
    9 years, 1 month ago

    For someone who did Eriksen to Alli, someone who got Firmino, Salah and Mane on wc this looks like an utter flop.

  15. denial

    Which 5.5 mid for Willian?

    Gross or Choupo?

    1. Pigeon

    Think most of my Defense will be dropped soon, which 2 goes first? 0.7 ITB

    Foster / Myhill
    Jones / Hegazi / TAA / Mee / Stephens
    Eriksen / Mkhi / Willian / Brady / Carroll
    Kane / Lukaku / Firmino

    1. Van der Faart

  17. Van der Faart

    Left Davies on the bench today. Would have been an ok day otherwise. In good shape for next week though. Kane out of reach at the moment and going to cost -4 to get him.

    .4ITB.

    Ddg (Elliot)
    Davies Ake Hegazi (Stephens Naughton)
    Silva Mhik Eriksen Salah (Carroll)
    Lukaku Firmino Mounie

    Save and go for Kane in GW6?

    Please help if you may

    Foster Elliot

    Lowe Monreal Yoshida Alonso Suttner

    Salah Mhiki Pogba Carroll RLC

    Kane Lukaku JRod

    JRod is of course a problem, I can't see an easy way out though tbh, 2 free transfers and 0.8ITB

    Thanks all

    1. Yankee Toffee
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Downgrade Mkhi and upgrade Jrod

      1. Greasy
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Don't think Khoi is a good option?

    2. Pierce34
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd downgrade Yoshida to 4.0 and upgrade JRod. Having to play one of Carroll/RLC isn't brilliant either, unless they prove me wrong tomorrow.

    3. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Do you still have your WC? I'm considering Yoshida to Daniels short term until I use my WC. Might as well keep JRod for next week as they have West Ham home.

      Then you could downgrade Monreal/Alonso/Mkhi/Salah to upgrade JRod for Chica/Firmino for example

      1. Greasy
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yes I do, thank you I'll consider tgis

  20. Chris_White
    9 years, 1 month ago

    So which sub 5m defender do I get this week? Lejeune if fit?

    1. Yankee Toffee
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A BHA def

    2. Detweiler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Dunk maybe

  21. Yankee Toffee
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Vardy

    or

    Firmino

    ???

    1. Chris_White
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino

    2. Detweiler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino for now. Maybe Vardy from GW8

  22. ronty
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Kane (c) and Davies helped me gain ground today

    JWP to Gross looks good?!

    1. Yankee Toffee
      9 years, 1 month ago

      or Chupo Moting punt

      1. denial

        Which one though?

  23. Taking the Mkhitaryan
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Why is it that one whisper of a made up rumour and everybody is on it straight and it floods the site and everybody knows it
    But a sensible piece of info like Rose fitness and it gets asked twice a second no matter how many times you repeat he isnt even training yet after 9 months out. Bavies is good for another month minimum

    1. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Biggest mistake of season was going Danilo over Davies at start.

      1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I did too but that change was my gameweek 1 transfer

      2. Sunny 😎
        9 years, 1 month ago

        With Walker & Mendy, I was really confused as to why people went with Danilo. He was always going to be a back up for those two

  24. Bialystrzelec
    9 years, 1 month ago

    A) Gabbi & Willian --> Morata & Atsu
    B) Gabbi, Willian & Kolasinac --> Morata, Richalison & Jones
    C) Gabbi & Willian --> Morata & 5.3M midfield (suggestions who?)

    1. super zlatan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      2FT?

      I like A

    2. Sunny 😎
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wait till tomorrow at least. Keep an eye out for Loftus-Cheek

      1. Bialystrzelec
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I'm afraid Morata will rise overnight

  25. andymck

    Cedric > Davies or Jones?

    1. Detweiler
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Davies

    2. _Ninja_
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Davies

    3. super zlatan

      The former.

    4. Lone Wolf FPL

      Soton have amazeballs fixtures for a long time.

  26. stat
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How do I fit Davies into my team?

    Foster / Elliot
    Long / Bertrand / Kolasinac / Mee / Dann
    Carroll / Richarlison / Mkhi / Eriksen / Ritchie
    Lukaku / Kane / Firmino

    Bertrand -> Davies and one of:

    A) Foster -> Krul + 0.4 ITB
    B) Dann -> Clark + 0.3 ITB
    C) Dann -> Simpson + 0.3 ITB
    D) Richarlison -> Gross + 0.5 ITB
    E) Richarlison -> Choupo-Moting + 0.4 ITB

    I want Naughton but that would mean playing him against Spurs in GW 5 or playing Mee against Liverpool. I could bring him in for Dann later on and just play Dann vs SOU in GW 5 though, but it would mean downgrading Richarlison.

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan

      Honestly which ganeweek did u bring Richarlison in

    9 years, 1 month ago

    Looking to bring someone in for Mane - thinking Pogba or Mikh wihich will give me enough money to do Stephens to Alonso.

    Who is a better pick Pogba or Mikh?

    1. andymck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Both are good, probably won't matter that much

    2. Yankee Toffee
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Go to Bavies not Alonso

      1. Detweiler
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I could actually afford to do Stephens to Davies anyway, and just hold Mane for two weeks. Seems a waste though.

    3. Pigeon
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Pogba imo, unlucky not to get the goal and always plays the full 90

    4. super zlatan
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Flip a coin. Pogba seems to get 90 mins whereas mhkt gets subbed if that helps

      1. Detweiler
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah - I guess it's a little like Alli & Eriksen, steady vs explosive but probably both end up with similar points at the end.

  28. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Which one to prefer?

    A. Ramsey and Kolasinac
    B. Salah and Naughton/Lowe

    Thanks.

  29. Fred54
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Told myself coverage is daft, but now am covering Lukaku with Pogba and Mikhi because I can't fit Lukaku upfront!

  30. Captain Vantastic™

    Why are people getting Salah? His finishing is so poor and I doubt he is first choice anymore now that Cout is back too.

    1. tafrère

      Coutinho will play cm.
