After Spurs edged past West Ham at the London Stadium, there are six 3pm encounters to keep up ticking over this Saturday.

All eyes turn to the Etihad as Sergio Aguero and co welcome basement-dwellers Crystal Palace.

Transferred in by over 784,000 FPL managers last week, the Argentine has been captained by 18.5% – the second top pick for the Gameweek.

Gabriel Jesus owners are left frustrated, though, as he drops to the bench for the first time this season.

Aguero is still a less popular armband option than Romelu Lukaku (26.9%), who is again the number one choice for Man United’s trip to Southampton.

The Belgian has scored in both away appearances for the Red Devils, though has returned no more than six points on each occasion.

Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata is another big-hitter option. Up against Stoke’s patched up defence, the Spaniard looks to improve upon his run of three goals and two assists – just 3.2% have backed him with the armband.

Meanwhile, we’re looking for signs of form from both Everton and Swansea this weekend as they prepare for a super run of fixtures.

The Toffees entertain Bournemouth at Goodison, while Swansea welcome Watford to the Liberty.

And Burnley’s Chris Wood has another audition as our third striker option as Huddersfield make their way to Turf Moor. The summer signing has bagged three goals in four outings across all competitions since arriving from Leeds United.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

        I see what you did there

  2. Siggy in the Middle

    Floodgates hopefully will open at the Etihad.

  3. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    City win this now.

    Time for Pep to kick into action and rest his key players for the CL

  4. Delph & Safety

    Great goal from sane!
    Let's hope aguero gets one or 2 now

    Silva great value for money

    1. twoplustwo

      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      If he keeps this up absolutely

  6. Jafooli

    Bony worst footballer ever?

  7. Nicks93

    Come on kun

    You only have 15 mins left

    @ Demba Da:
    How is Kun playing? I get home late and miss the first half

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      😮

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years

        😯

        1. Jafooli

          😛

          How's your team doing Ruk?

  9. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years

    Willian to Sane looking tempting

  10. makaveli123
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Poor Palace 🙂

  11. Pacer.
    • 11 Years

    anyone think silva will continue in this vein, it's the most consistent i can remember him being, ever

    1. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Barring injury, yes.

    2. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Seems he has more willing runners this year (as we just saw with Sane)

    3. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I don't usually like owning Silva in FPL, but he certainly looks more potent in terms of points this season. Will be thinking about bringing him in...

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Yup noticed this within the first 3 weeks, seems to be much more attacking and staying higher up than ever before. Could be to do with age maybe? Pep wants him to not run as much

    4. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Everton are such an unlikeable team. Soooo boring

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        You watching their game? 😮

    5. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Mkhy to Silva also has to be done soon.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I was going to do it early last week, but it felt premature. Currently 0.1m outpriced.

        Currently not possible without shuffling other players *sigh*

    6. nicecat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Does Danilo get potential clean sheet points?

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yes

      2. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        he will subbed off at 87, get 59 mins playing time

      3. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yep. Came on before 30 mins.

    7. thorvaldsson
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Ok Walker time to get a jammy assist!

    8. Teror
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sane's goal came from a Silva assist. KdB is literally impossible to justify at his price.

      1. RealSocialDads
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah very frustrating being a KDB owner, might be time for him to go

    9. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years

      aguero to be subbed at HT for Jesus I reckon

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        hope so

      2. Simon69
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Meh meh meh meh

      3. @persecuted_by_mods
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I don't think he'll get subbed at all, Jesus will come in for someone else maybe

        • HamezMace
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I'll take that bet,

          If you're wrong you can't post anything until after 17:00.

          1. George Sillett
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Make that never post again and you will have plenty of backers.

          We need a mute button, to silence repetitive bores.

          • 14 Years

          I guess you don’t read your replies.. just constant whinging

          That is the dream.

      4. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years

        Danilo a bargain if Mendys injury is long

        1. Ravager
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Just as I got rid of him

      5. AC Tomasso
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        sane was great for my team last season, shame he can't be a regular starter at mo

        1. TOBY1
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          this

        2. LǝgleSs e|even
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          No one is guaranteed as a regular starter except Pep himself.

        3. Neevesy
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          He always looks good!

        4. Magic Bean
          • 10 Years

          Yep

      6. ☈☾
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        How good have Richarlison and Calvert Lewin been?

        15 mins left for kun

        The clock is ticking

        1. The Royal Robin

          Huh?

        2. Butcher
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          15 mins to drink his cup of tea at HT?

      8. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Alli to Silva does not look that bad now!

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah but having both would be better

          • F4L
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I did that as well. Should pay off

        2. The Royal Robin
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          If a player gets injured in the first 20 minutes you really should be allowed your first sub on, ffs.

          1. El-Kloppico
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            lol

          2. Alnair
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            It's pure bad luck, but this game ultimately is luck. The same lucky people do well, the same unlucky people can't catch a break.

          3. El-Kloppico
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            and if he scored, you'd be the first one to mourn imo

        3. Foozeball
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Very clever play by Ederson to just barely keep the ball in the penalty box XD

            • 11 Years

        4. FALCAO & MOU
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Jesus brace next week, bring him in.

        5. Ghost Gooner
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          My best decision so far as a no Kun owner

        6. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Not too shabby - Morata captain, Kane, Lukaku and Silva

          1. H-SF
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            fair play
