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

    0.1 off doing Alonso + Miki + Firmino >> Azpi + Atsu + Kane.......

        Haha it is a little, could do though this:

        Eriksen > Silva
        Firmino > Kane
        Miki > Ritchie

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years

    2. Kante FC

    Decision to go Alli > Silva over Alonso > Otamendi, which would also have meant starting Jones... has not gone well.

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

      could've been worse. Alonso was super unlucky not to get CS points

  5. That Was Easy!
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Captained Kane, had Alli, getting absolutely pummeled in my ML. Everyone WC'd to Morata, Silva, etc.

    I think I'm done with this game for a bit. Ruining the weekend for me too often. Can't have that.

    1. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Oh and had Jesus and Mendy.

  6. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Was Alonso subbed on 59?
    That's 0 points, then.

    1. whatsgoingon
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Is the requirement of cs points at least 60 mins on the pitch?

      1. Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yes sir.

      Correct.

  7. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years

    Lukaku > Morata after the Palace game looking good then...

  9. Pirlø's Pen
    • 10 Years

    I know its early but this is what im eyeing up.

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

      Attacking Stoke players. Was subbed before he got sent off.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        this, should have been sent off imo

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I watched the whole game and not at all. Tbf, all Chelsea's goals were on the break

    3. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years

      Only the changing room doors

    4. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Chelsea have really been attacking from the right, more-so that the left, this season - so far.

    1. Werkself
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Well played.

  13. The Royal Robin

    Who would you sell for Silva? I've got Kane and Lukaku.

    A) Eriksen
    B) Mkhi

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Miki if I had to choose

    2. We Will Klopp you

      What does having Kane and Lukaku have to do with it?

  14. VFORVANDETA
    • 9 Years

    Cmon Firmino.Save my GW.

  15. Yank Revolution
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Palace are the first team to not score in first 6 in Prem League history. Only two other teams in English football HISTORY have done this.

  16. F4L

    MMMMORATTATTAA. Don't even own him, but what a player.

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

      not sure how an average player like him is getting all these goals to be honest, in the meantime a goal machine like Lacazzette is still not doing much

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        good one

      2. Dr. DOOM
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        If you think he is average, you must not be watching the games

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

          I've watched him a lot before he came to England. Average as duck. Thus why I'm surprised he's doing well

      3. boc610
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        you obviously never saw him play at juve.hes world class

    2. j.m
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      probably will get even better with Hazard back

  17. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Sold Eriksen/Morata for Silva/Kun for -4 lol

    1. FISSH
      • 13 Years

      Similar to me

  18. Mr.Irwin
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

  19. boc610

    Kdb basically walked into a brothel on his birthday with limitless cash and still couldnt get some

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years

  20. Patch

    8 years, 6 months ago

    Not too long ago I wished ill thoughts on Morata and he got a yellow card and minimal points for just the GW I needed him too (harbour no I'll feelings this week) ... But ...

    Today I would like to repeat that same curse for Coutinho...pls let me catch up in the ML!

  21. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Ive exact money to do
    Mkhi and Firmino > Atsu and Aguero

    If Firmino blanks today should I risk the early transfer?

    Team would be

    Foster
    Davies, Jones, Alexander-Arnold
    Eriksen, Salah, Atsu, Loftus-Cheek
    Kane, Aguero, Lukaku

    Elliot, Carroll, Naughton, Mbemba

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

      This would be free as I've 2 FTs

    2. MTPockets
        8 years, 6 months ago

        No. CL midweek

      • j.m
        • 14 Years

        After midweek

      • Sam1878
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        That's nearly my exact team and one of the thoughts I had as well.

        Alternatively could get morata and Richie instead but that would mean no city players.

    3. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years

      Tammy might even get 3 bonus, what a man

    4. Gt1996
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      29 points POST baps!!! Still have 5 to play including a ludicrous Kolasinac (C).

    5. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Firmino, Vardy, Salah, Ritchie, Elliot... save my GW please.

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

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

      Pogba news

      Sources from within Manchester United say the club will decide next week on whether Paul Pogba requires surgery to repair his damaged left hamstring.

      Officially there has no definitive timeline announced and in response to growing media speculation of an extended period on the sidelines for the France international, Jose Mourinho had this to say: "Any comment, view or rumour is totally wrong, because we do not know if it is 12 weeks or 12 days." The United boss then went on to add [before the trip to Southampton]: "I have no idea [when he will be back]. So, I’m not going to cry or be counting the days, not at all." However, reports suggest that the club have been in touch with Finnish muscle repair specialist Sakari Orava with a decision set to be made about whether or not surgery is required. If the midfielder was to go under the knife, then Pogba could potentially be out of action for around three months.

      Sold Morata for Jesus, I'm not hurt 🙂

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        1. My Name Is Pepu
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Wanted one of Kun or Jesus. Did an early transfer before the midweek cup game,regret galore for me this week.
