With no lunchtime kick-off, Gameweek 10 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) gets underway with five 3pm GMT kick-offs:

Richards

TEAM NEWS

Starting at Turf Moor, William Saliba is fit to start for Arsenal today.

Having made 10 changes for the EFL Cup tie with Brighton and Hove Albion in midweek, Mikel Arteta reverts to the side he sent out to face Crystal Palace last weekend.

Burnley boss Scott Parker seems to be switching to a back five this afternoon, bringing in Josh Laurent for Jacob Bruun Larsen in his one alteration.

Fulham boss Marco Silva welcomes back Joachim Andersen and Harry Wilson from injury and recalls Josh King to his Premier League line-up after last weekend’s benching for the budget midfielder.

Silva also hands Kevin his first league start, with Sasa Lukic, Adama Traore and Emile Smith Rowe dropping to the bench. Issa Diop misses out entirely.

There are two changes for Wolverhampton Wanderers from last weekend.

Emmanuel Agbadou and Toti Gomes come into defence, with Andre benched and Rodrigo Gomes injured. Ladislav Krejčí will likely move into midfield.

And in the final bit of headline centre-half injury news, Chris Richards is fit to start for Crystal Palace.

Oliver Glasner makes one enforced alteration for Palace’s meeting with unchanged Brentford, bringing in Jefferson Lerma for Adam Wharton.

It’s nice and simple at the City Ground: the managers of both Nottingham Forest and Manchester United go with the same teams again.

Finally, on the south coast, Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler makes one alteration from Gameweek 9 for the visit of Leeds United: it’s Diego Gomez in for Maxim De Cuyper.

Daniel Farke’s troops are unchanged.

    Saka xG 0.66.

    Nothing to show for 🙁

      Can't complain till he gets to 1.00! Those are the rules!

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Needs to improve his finishing

    3. wiseguy
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      On the bright side, Saka s**t is an easy sell now

      1. The Reptile
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Is he looking that bad? Easy swap to Mbuemo and Kudos to Rice

  2. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    5 months, 13 days ago

    Soft foul there to Damsgaard

  3. DeSelby
    • 3 Years
    5 months, 13 days ago

    Cunha with the embarrassing attempt at cheating. Sad.

    1. chocolove
      • 15 Years

      Cun*ha

  4. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    How is Saka looking? Really need something from him ioday

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Pathetic as usual

      1. The Reptile
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Think I'm gonna ditch him for Mbuemo then

        1. RICICLE
          • 3 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Same but for some reason I just don’t see Mbuemo keeping it up

    2. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Thank you for reading the posts 🙂

  5. sminkypinky
    • 14 Years
    5 months, 13 days ago

    What, 15-16 years of playing this game this is the first gameweek ever having triple defence of a single team. I’m not sure it is for me though. I’m too old for this amount of nerves. 😀

    1. Mr. Eko
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      No need for nerves at the moment when it comes to Gunners triple up

      1. sminkypinky
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Don’t. You’re jinxing it.

    2. Bobkat
      • 3 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Haha I’m with you on that

    3. Mr. Eko
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years

      Don’t worry Bob

      6. Mr. O'Connell

        (if you've got Gabriel you can already add on his clean sheet, 3 bonus, defcons and 2 goals)

      7. keefy59
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        I win 21 from 6

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Or 27 from 6 if we are counting baps
          I've got a -4 to come off as well

      8. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

    7. Von Lipwig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      A) Kudus out for one of many options
      B) Bench him against MUN(h) and play KDH again FUL(h) and save FT

      1. Fifa las vegas
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Thinking out to Sarr or Chelsea or Arsenal mid. Enzo or Rice in reality are the only affordable options there

        1. Fifa las vegas
          • 13 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Or maybe go different for a week and bench for Reijnders, hoping the City Pool game has lots of goals

        2. Von Lipwig
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Got plenty of money. 8.1m free for Kudus replacement. Wary of doubling up on united with Mbuemo as already have Bruno

    8. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Mbeumo transfer curse in full effect

      1. Fifa las vegas
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Big time, that is the only way

      2. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        TBF Forest away with Dyche wasn’t the game to want him for

    9. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      No gyokeres
      No gabriel
      No bruno

      what an absolute shocker. rank free fall

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        no rice either

        1. Bushwhacker
          • 6 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Bad luck this week, good luck next? Is Gabriel essential?

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        It’s only a goal and assist for Gyok and bruno

      3. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        We love to see it oh yes we do woo woo woo

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 6 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          on the plus side double ars def munoz andersen matatea doing well so not too bad

    10. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      gabriel 8 dcs at ht lmao. hes trying to catch up haaland

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Love to see it

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          looks primed to break the defender record for season points as long as he can stay fit

          1. Brosstan
            • 11 Years
            5 months, 13 days ago

            bit unfair to "break a record" when he has 76 more points available to him than previous seasons.

    11. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Saka will get an early sub if Arsenal are coasting in the second half. Arteta has already spoken about managing him and his time on the pitch

    12. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      burnley not had a shot damn

    13. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      What shall I/we bring in: Rice or Saka? Leaning towards Rice because Saka is so predictable for defenders?

    14. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      United currently sit second in the table

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        And lare playing with 14 again

    15. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Haven't had a goal from a forward not called Haaland since GW3. Wood, Watkins, Gyokeres, Woltemade, Richarlison, JP and Thiago, know how to pick em!

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Big Joke scored today

        1. Il Capitano
          • 5 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Sold a couple weeks ago

    16. keefy59
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Can anyone beat my 21 from 6 players
      Current scores only no baps included

      1. Admiral Benson
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        22

      2. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Are you positing that as good or bad?

        1. keefy59
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Looking at the goals & assists so far these are good scores .

        2. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Obviously good...

    17. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      I’ve never had defenders score so many points: Gabriel, Van der Ven, Guehi! I’m sure others will be able to add Mukiele, Alderete and Rodon to the list.

      The irony is I picked and still own Diakite in GW1 for his goal threat and he’s yet to deliver.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Timber as well, of course.

      2. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Well done!

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          Maybe they can have a word with Foden, who’s stinking up my midfield

      3. MikeBravo
        • 7 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Didn't you swap to Senesi when Diakite got injured for a couple of games early on?

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          No, just benched him

    18. MikeBravo
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Remember when Southampton were near the top of the Premier League? During COVID, with no home fans present. No toxic atmosphere. When will supporters ever learn? Ditto Wolves. Stay away, give your teams a chance.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Danny Ings was a menace

        1. MikeBravo
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          I think he played most of the season without injury...

      2. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Wolves fans have a right to be annoyed at this stage. 2 draws and 8 losses from 10 for any team would have fans booing.

        1. MikeBravo
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 13 days ago

          It don't help though

          1. FPL Blow-In
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            5 months, 13 days ago

            Not at all but frustration and discontent will inevitably show

            1. MikeBravo
              • 7 Years
              5 months, 13 days ago

              You know what's even more frustrating? Resisting my gut to not do Reindeer to Sessegnon as my 'fun' transfer for this week...

    19. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      My next move is who to remove for Gabriel?
      A - Saka
      B - Gyökeres

      Brought in Timber to afford Mbeumo

      0.2 Bank
      Pope-(Dubravka)
      Timber-Guéhi-van de Ven-(Senesi-Gudmundson)
      Saka(VC)-Mbeumo-Semenyo-Reijnders-(Caicedo)
      Haaland(C)-Mateta-Gyökeres

      Saka should be on a double

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        I’m thinking of shifting Saka to Palmer if fit for Wolves and going treble defence

      2. F4L
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        think gyok still, shift to 442 and upgrade 4th mid. probably still gyok either way, saka is fine for now and keeps palmer's spot warm for when he returns

      3. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        B

    20. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      if cunha can play 90, he might be a player who can pick up dc points quite regularly in this role. was close last gw but got subbed with 15 to go

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Him and Sesko the most likely contenders for early sub in the attack.

    21. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      top 10k eos?

      ant wait to find how much gabriel has cost me this week

    22. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Best bus captain for next week?

    23. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      How well is Glasner doing at Palace. It’s easy to forget that fans were told to be grateful

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        to be in the premier league with Roy Hodgson. Now, we’re tripling up on their players despite losing Olise and Eze!

    24. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Gyok off for merino

    25. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Gyokeres subbed

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 months, 13 days ago

        Bringing on a goalscorer when two up is a bit cruel

    26. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Will Arsenal ever concede again?

    27. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 13 days ago

      Gyokeres HT sub
      Merino on
