After yesterday’s disappointing start, many Fantasy managers will be looking for some of Sunday’s heavy hitters to come to the rescue.

A couple of 1.30pm kick-offs get us underway. Community Shield winners Arsenal welcome West Ham to the Emirates before Steven McClaren takes charge of Newcastle for the first time in the top-flight as in-form Southampton roll up to St James’ Park.

Stoke play host to big-spending Liverpool in the late kick-off, with Brendan Rodgers’ side looking to immediately avenge their 6-1 mauling at the Britannia in the final league fixture of 2014/15.

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

        its not even his preferred side. he has already looked out of sorts when on the ball pushing up a couple of times.

        I dont know, i just think aarons is clearly better and helps the attack way more

    Right, twenty minutes and nothing.
    Wildcarding out Ozil, Rambo, Pelle and Mane for Mahrez, Vardy, Barkley and Redmond

    This is the right move, yes?

      No. Save your wildcard. Next week Pelle and Mane play an atrocious Everton side that struggled against newly promoted Watford and Ozil plays Crystal Palace. Just because players had a good week doesn't mean you have to wildcard them in and same for when your players have a bad week.
