Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) could punish the 163,000+ managers who sold him for Gameweek 2 as he was handed his first start of the season against Fulham.

He remains the most popular Fantasy Premier League defender, with 22.2 percent ownership, even after missing out on Gameweek 1.

There is a full debut for Southampton’s Danny Ings (£5.5m) at Goodison Park, after he impressed in his cameo appearance at the end of Gameweek 1.

Hosts Everton went with Mason Holgate (£4.5m) at centre-back in the place of the suspended Phil Jagielka (£4.5m), while Leighton Baines (£5.5m) started at left-back once again.

Jonny Evans (£5.0m) is to make his bow in Leicester City colours today coming back from injury to replace Wes Morgan (£4.5m) in the starting line-up alongside Harry Maguire (£5.5m). Not surprisingly, Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) starts up front.

Ruben Neves (£5.1m) is Saturday’s most transferred in player with 388,000+ new owners, and he starts for Wolves at the King Power Stadium.

Bournemouth have named an unchanged XI for their trip to West Ham while Javier Hernandez (£6.5m) starts up front next to Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m).

EVERTON XI: Pickford; Baines, Holgate, Keane, Coleman; Schneiderlin, Gueye; Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Walcott; Tosun

SOUTHAMPTON XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Hoedt, Stephens, Bertrand, Romeu, Lemina, Ward-Prowse, Redmond, Austin, Ings

LEICESTER XI: Schmeichel; Chilwell, Maguire, Evans, Pereira; Mendy, Ndidi; Gray, Maddison, Albrighton; Vardy

WOLVES XI: Patricio; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Jota, Jimenez, Costa

SPURS XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Eriksen, Lucas, Dele, Kane

FULHAM XI: Fabri, Fosu-Mensah, Chambers, Le Marchand, Bryan, Seri, Anguissa, Cairney, Kamara, Sessegnon, Mitrovic.

WEST HAM: Fabianski; Masuaku, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Zabaleta; Anderson, Noble, Wilshere, Snodgrass; Arnautovic, Chicharito.

BOURNEMOUTH: Begovic; Daniels, Aké, S Cook, A Smith; Fraser, Surman, Gosling, Brooks; King, Wilson

    Eriksen, please leave my team with a parting gift. It's so frustrating owning him. So close yet so far.

      Think I'm going for a season long spurs boycott this year. Don't fancy them.

      1. Giovanni Giorgio
        • 13 Years

    Anyone else having issues with the site?

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      For approximately 10 mins?

    2. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    3. jayzico
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Cache needs cleared

  9. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Priorities for today:

    1) Mkhi attacking returns
    2) Mikhi starts
    3) Mkhi good performance

    Don't want to have to sell him due to price drop and lack of confidence in him for upcoming amazing fixtures.... Zaha + Mkhi > Jiminez + Ozil not out of the question though. Eyes peeled for the final game of the day (meh okay, and the current games too).

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mkhi is on my watch list for next fixtures

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Currently have Mkhi, Laca and Auba, so hoping they all look decent options going forward. Otherwise it would be a big fail of an investment 😀

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just wish I’d have stuck to the plan.

  10. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Good start so far, Rich and Arnie goals.

    Just need my captain Aguero to fail and normal service resumes for me

    1. pressdpm
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You and me both.

  11. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Tosun get involved yah twerp...

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      So much this....sick of him, utterly uleless

  12. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Goalmoith scramble in Fulham box.

    1. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Eriksen skied it eventially.

  13. Baked baines
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Sun dream team updates so much better than fantasy premier league!!

    1. pressdpm
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah but it's The Sun

  14. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen doing everything, bar scoring.

    1. Rotation's Alter Ego
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Seems to often be like that for him

      Owners deserve a return, he's been good

  15. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    No Arnie or Richarlison hurts.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Rich will fade, no big deal

      1. Limbo
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        He was pretty effective when Silva was in charge at Watford TBF.

  16. The Wise Owl
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Wilson on for a rise

  17. seewhyaxe
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    who assisted in Doherty's OG?

    1. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Albrighton

      1. seewhyaxe
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        thanks!

      2. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        This

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No assist

      1. CLASS OF 78
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Grazed Vardy's head though didn't it? Surely that counts given the dodgy assists already awarded this season!

        1. CLASS OF 78
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Ha. Just watched highlights, Vardy nowhere near it - was Coady. Hearing fail!

  18. Make United Great Again
    • 14 Years

    Why do I own Josh King?

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nostalgia

  19. Shrimpy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Geezz Tripp looks dangerous, sold for Shaw :/

    1. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      How’s that knee?

  20. Aɴᴛᴇᴄᴇᴅᴇɴᴛ
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Why do I own Rui Patricio ?

    1. Postman Ty
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      hype.

    2. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Euro 2016

  21. Postman Ty
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Richarlison might just work his way into a captaincy if he keeps this up.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      My rival beneath me captained him

      1. Postman Ty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        fair play if he has no city? still a bit risky at this point, but Sot'n are pants.

  22. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Did Tosun even get involved in the celebrations? Haven’t seen it mentioned....

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years

  24. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    G: Moura
    A: Eriksen

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Correction - no assist.

    2. Postman Ty
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Is this more of that crap where they are giving assists this season? That ball was intentionally and successfully 'cleared' by a defender after Eriksons last touch...

      1. Postman Ty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        ^^ ah, ok.

  25. Limbo

    1. thunder_mike
      • 13 Years

  28. Differential C (Mark)

    Moura Sellers gutted

  30. Rainer

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
