Following on from Southampton’s 1-0 defeat of Palace at Selhurst Park, we focus our attentions on five 3pm kick-offs.

Liverpool and Man City both supply two of the top 10 captains for the Gameweek.

Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah are backed by 4% and 2% respectively as the Reds’ welcome to Anfield.

Both have already bagged two sets of double-digits in the opening four Gameweeks and were in the goals in Wednesday’s Champions League draw against Sevilla.

Meanwhile, Sergio Aguero (4%) and Gabriel Jesus (2%) were also in scoring form in midweek as Pep Guardiola’s side breezed past Feyenoord.

The Etihad outfit have racked up nine goals in their last two matches in all competitions and travel to Watford looking for a repeat of last season’s 5-0 win at Vicarage Road.

Elsewhere, Jamie Vardy heads to Huddersfield on the back of three goals in his first four Gameweeks – all scored against Arsenal and Chelsea.

Newcastle’s Joselu and Stoke’s Eric Choupo-Moting boast some strong underlying numbers as they square up at St James’ Park. Over 235,000 drafted in the Cameroon international after he bagged a brace in last Saturday’s home draw with Man United.

The Magpies’ Rob Elliot is once again the most benched player in the Gameweek – despite serving up back-to-back clean sheets, over 853,000 owners have named him as a sub.

West Brom and West Ham clash at the Hawthorns after contrasting results last week.

Hauled off just after the hour-mark in the 2-0 win over Huddersfield, Javier Hernandez was subject to over 230,00 transfers out – only Sadio Mane and Paul Pogba were jettisoned by more managers over the previous week.

    Sturridge is such a greedy twat.

    I took a four point hit to shift Bertrand. I feel sad.

      did you buy Zouma?

      I got rid of him in an 8pt hit

    Why did I buy CM and Joselu? They're pretty awful.

    1. *sigh*
      9 years, 1 month ago

      They played 45 minutes since you bought them after watching them for a few games and suddenly they've turned to crap?

  7. Darth_Krid

    So satisfying to finally be a Salah owner. Looks like he could score a hat trick every week. I'll take the one from 10 shots hit ratio though!

    1. aluigi76
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He's my key player together with Kaku, Kane and Bertrand from Day 1. WC played in GW3 after the Int'l break.

  8. VFORVANDETA

    Jesus up 2nd bps.

    1. Ribus

      Hope he doesnt get subbed early

  9. FALCAO & MOU

    My season is done, have always been above 2m forever since the start.

  10. diesel001

    If you have Aguero, Jesus and Kane. What are you going to do when Lukaku and Morata score goals? You can't have them all. Personally think you need to look at combos

    1. Mark-O
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ben Crabtree didn't own Pool players last season, and still emerged as the champion.

      Just get whoever gets many points to cover what you lack imo

      1. Licky
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Tbf Liverpool were no were near as explosive in the second half of the season.

      2. XabiAlonso
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He got lucky he's

    2. Bushido
      9 years, 1 month ago

      And Lacazette

    3. Eddie

      I don't think many people have a front three of Kane Kun and Jesus

    Huddersfield must concede cause my ML rival has triple defence from HUD 🙁

    1. Darth_Krid
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If he has that then he won't be staying top for very long.

    2. aluigi76
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Vardy, if not Mahrez will penetrate the Hudd's D

    So. I'm sure it's been discussed ( but I'm not hunting through 15 pages)

    Listening to radio said Brady assist. Just checked on fpl and its not awarded .

    Whats occuring?

    1. Rainer
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wood touched it.

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Thanks. Definitely touched or contentious?

        1. Niemi
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Wood didn't touch it IMO.

  13. Cok3y5murf

    Relax everyone. Lukaku to cover Aguero tomorrow 🙂

    1. Marcos Alonso is god

      In what, a blanket?

  14. diesel001
    9 years, 1 month ago

    WBA 0 - 0 West Ham

    Just the way I like it.

  15. FFPro
    9 years, 1 month ago

    As a Brady owner who had legitimate assists for Brunt/Eriksen removed last season and Deulofeu the season before that I feel sickened. Every season this happens to me

    1. diesel001
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Watch the replay. Wood touched it.

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

      Once in a season. Wah, you lost 3 points.

      1. FFPro
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Factoring in multiple times a season + bonus it's far more than that. Meanwhile players I don't own score offside goals

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

          True.

  16. Bushido
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Mahrez, Brady, Antonio and Firminho all on 1 points 🙁
    Looks like my wait of getting more than 40 points in gameweek this year will continue

    1. Sailboats

      It's only HT

  17. Colonel Shoe 肝池

    Aguero has become the destroyer of men and dragons!!

      And hornets

  19. Reed_Rothchild
    9 years, 1 month ago

    People lamenting not having Khun or Jesus but Morata will score 25 goals this season.

    1. Marcos Alonso is god
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane Morata Jesus
      Mkhi Salah

      😎

  20. EmreCan Hustle

    How are Stoke looking? Moting or Jese?

  21. Henry_555
    9 years, 1 month ago

    De Bruyne is great. But not as 9.9 FPL asset considering city strike force.
    Kdb + firmino > aguero/jesus + ????

  22. JONALDINHO
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Where's Brady assist gone???

    1. Jacket Potato
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Was just thinking this!

    2. shearer9
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It's so cruel.

      1. JONALDINHO
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Wish I could sue FPL. Nobody was awarded the assist which is complete BS

  23. Fantasy Gold
    9 years, 1 month ago

    So was the Brady one a genuine assist or no?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      9 years, 1 month ago

      not genuine

    2. diesel001
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No

    3. GreatCarragherReef
      9 years, 1 month ago

      yes it was, i don't own him. Defender touched it, don't listen to the trolls

  24. Niemi
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Can anyone give a logical explanation to why there are no assist awarded for the Arfield goal? I normally see the logic of the dubious assists being removed, but isn't this one pretty clear cut!?

    1. Rainer
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its TBC, Wood should get it.

      1. Niemi
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No, he didn't touch it. FPL on Twitter said there will be no assist awarded.

        1. shearer9
          9 years, 1 month ago

          If he didn't touch it then surely it's Brady's?

          1. Niemi
            9 years, 1 month ago

            I'd say so. Haven't seen a replay showing he touched it yet at least, but I might be blind.

  25. shearer9
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Why did I pick Brady over Ritchie ffs.

    1. Ady87
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I did Ritchie > Atsu and he's scored points every week since. At least Atsu is on the sheet today.

  26. Rafiki
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How's Mendy look?

    1. diesel001
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Attacking.

    2. Marcos Alonso is god
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Tall dark bloke

      1. Nascimento
        9 years, 1 month ago

        You can't say that

        1. Rafiki
          9 years, 1 month ago

          lol, that's good. Hes my only city player and now seeing score is avg

  27. MTPockets
    9 years, 1 month ago

    8 mins to Eliteserien deadline

    1. Fantasy Gold
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Fascinating

  28. Ady87
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Got Atsu, Jesus, Salah and was looking at a good GW but in a moment of stupidity did Yoshida > Gomez thinking Yoshida had been properly dropped and forgetting about his flights after international duty. Should be on 30 pre BPS already.

    Can't win them all but still need Firmino to do something!

    1. Hanked
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I dropped Yoshida and overlooked that exact same thing. On the bright side, it's only matter of time until he gets rotated. Stephens has done ok (Yosh still preferred) but Van Dijk is better than both of them. Surely he'll be starting again soon.

  29. Mark-O
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Wait till Hazard or Sanchez explodes tomorrow and we'll see how you can afford one of them with your big hitters #justplayyourownway

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      This. 4pm on Saturday is not the time to plan transfers.

    2. Licious Lizard
      9 years, 1 month ago

      That's the fun of the game imo. Managing your budget and guess/Pick who will get the most points. Obviously you will have to make sacrifices.

      KDB, Jesus, Kun
      Sanchez, Lacazette
      Hazard, Morata,
      Pogba, Mkhi, Lukaku
      Salah, Coutunho, Mane, Firmino,
      Eriksen, Alli, Kane

      Just to name a few ...

  30. Total Foot 5

    mercy aguero
    anyone else went Kane over Aguero instead of going double Aguero and Jesus?

    my idea of going optuion 2 was best. obviously i went 1 by the kane train. thinking it was an error.

    1 *Kane - jesus - *Silva - alli
    2 *Aguero - jesus - *Eriksen - alli

    1. saurabh.06
      9 years, 1 month ago

    2. Total Foot 5
