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.

    Cheers Bellerin on your injury. Enter Cedric..

  2. Mary
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Use wildcard this week vs create new team

    Got 21 points this week, is it really worth losing a wildcard?

    1. Debauchy
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Nope , stay calm

    2. arthadox
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Wait until all games have been completed, then take judgement.

      10 years, 6 months ago

      Good question. You lose your history.

      1. Mary
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I'm ashamed of my history

    4. chrisjdgrady
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      No. See what happens next week. Could be a completely different picture.

  3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Ox looking really lively! The best value on Arsenals midfield the first 30 mins.

  4. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Gotta love fpl. All the Cedric hate a few pages ago 🙂

    1. Mary
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      this is what i mean!!!

  5. Ricky - it doesn\'t ta…
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Southampton look dodgy at the back

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      No Clasie so I expected it really.

      Need another CB.

  6. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Walcott ---> Memphis on the cards here

    1. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Memphis? He impress you yesterday, or is it just a general pick?

      1. @ocprodigy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I think people are forgetting United played Spurs yesterday - never gonna be an easy game.

        1. Ludo
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Hmm fair enough!

      2. Bøwstring The Carp
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Looked lively and forward.

        I think for a first game it was poor from United but with set pieces and a free role he should come good now in United's easier fixtures (I hope)

        1. Somalion
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          I'd rather him on the wing tbh. Don't like him at CAM at all, and think LVG is mental to play him there.

      3. #WinterIsNotComing
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        It was his first game in epl.. give him 2-3 games.

      4. La Décima Chaser
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        My thoughts exactly! I like Depay and his potential but he didn't show me he was a brilliant FPL prospect yesterday. Away to Villa may be the factor though!

  7. shivamutd
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Come on pelle a hat trick would save this GW

    1. #WinterIsNotComing
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Mine too...

    2. Mary
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      A hattrick would ruin my life.

  8. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Well done Adrian lad

  9. Norb
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Ramsey hit the bar

    1. Norb
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      *Would have been an own goal

  10. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Arsenal have no threat when pace of sanchez and walcott is missing

  11. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Quit playing Wenger. Get wally in at half 😀

  12. Our Man Charlie
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    great save adrian

  13. chrisjdgrady
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Walcott gonna come on and score and Wenger is gonna realize how stupid it is not to start him. I know this!!

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Or it will confirm to him his value as a super sub.

      1. Hamstergod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        that's the more likely option

    2. Long Juan Silva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Walcott can't play as a striker. Nothing 'stupid' about it.

      1. chrisjdgrady
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        He can play as a winger...

        1. Long Juan Silva
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Ox is playing well. Sanchez nearly fit. If he plays anywhere it will be up front.

    3. Debauchy
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Its a 90 min game . How do you know if he would have scored early ? Makes no sense, sorry

      1. chrisjdgrady
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Been one of the most in form players for us since the end of last season and through pre season. What has Ramsey done lately?

        1. Debauchy
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah agree. But if he comes on late and gets the winner , thats all we want . Also have him in FPL btw

    4. Not My Real Name
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Are you watching the game? Chamberlain's showing exactly why he's in the team ahead of him!

      1. chrisjdgrady
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        They can play together

        1. Not My Real Name
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Not unless Walcott's up top, maybe 1/3rd of the games

  14. Long Juan Silva
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Any price change sites working?

    1. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      We don't know yet, there haven't been any...

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Nobody knows.

    3. Jay_
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Fpl stats is running but early days won't be accurate until about a week

      • ihateramsey2

        Mahrez rising tonight?

      • Concrete

      • Jernau M Gurgeh
        • 15 Years

        fiso crack the code

      • Long Juan Silva
        • 11 Years

        Cheers all

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      As much as Cedric put in a lovely cross for that goal, he has been rubbish defensively. Slightly worried that will result in him not being nailed on.

      1. Wouter
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Who have they got to play there instead of him?

        1. arthadox
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          No better options than him, he will get better... A new signing of course will play a little bit bad.

      2. Tallahassee
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Let him settle a bit!

      3. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Works fine for Ivanovic.

      4. Seb Wassell
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Cuco Martina would be the alternative I suppose

    5. Declan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      High ball after high ball into the box, easy for Wham to deal with 🙁

    6. Captain Goodwin
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Saints handball in the box but no penalty

      1. Wouter
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Was a shoulder/armpit.

    7. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      End to end football at the Emirates

    8. heylo
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      So if a player comes off at 59 mins, they get 2nd minutes point? Or do they have to make it to 60

    9. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Arsenal bossing West ham really.

    10. Baby Cuties
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      waheeeeyyy!!!

      Those who celebrate their first fpl goal of the season now, come and have a congratulatory cuddle with me!!!!

      Well done pelle

    11. Rafabio
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Surely Wenger won't drop Ox. Who will sit?!! Wally and Sanchez available still. Mercy.

    12. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      How's Targett doing?

      1. Rafabio
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        CS still intact. Not much else.

      2. stevie
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        he's on the park - what more can we ask of a 4.0 🙂

        (I got him too)

    13. icywrists23
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      why isn't walcott starting. thats a huge direspect to him after signing a new contract

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        No its not

      2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Because he will only get injured if he plays. This way he won't.

    14. El Berbossa - \\\"El b…
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Mane does not look threatening at ALL.

      1. Jay_
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Counter attack with Newcastle chasing game 2nd half he will be a menace

        • Wakka Wakkas
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Biggest bust this season. People buying him for 8.0 are really mad. For 8.5 more you have PROVEN studs.

        • EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          At ALL

        Creating a team GW2

        Does this mean I get unlimited transfers until the deadline?

        1. ihateramsey2
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          yes. we all should have done that

        2. LMNO
          • 16 Years

          yes

      3. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years

        Who will drop out when Sanchez is fully fit for Arsenal?

        1. Declan
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Ox I'd imagine

          1. @ocprodigy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            Surely not.

        2. Not My Real Name
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Rotation from game to game. Sanchez and Ozil will play every game, rotation beyond that.

        4. stevie
          • 14 Years

          farted on the team bus - so he's been disowned

        5. Mary
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          No idea, everyone is crying about him not playing, pretty sure he picked up an injury

        6. Nicks93
