There are a pair of 4pm kick-offs for our Sunday afternoon assessment, as Everton host Manchester City, while Watford search for their first win against an out-of-sorts Southampton outfit.

The Toffees punished Saints’ new look defence last weekend, ranking joint-second for big chances (three) behind Stoke City (five). The Merseysiders placed fourth for home clean sheets (eight) in the previous campaign but face a tall task trying to pacify Man City’s effervescent attack, considering they put three past Chelsea’s experienced back line.

Saints boss Ronald Koeman will be looking for a big response from his players at Vicarage Road, having watched them ship five goals in their opening two league clashes. No side has conceded more goal attempts from set pieces (eight) than Southampton this season and it will be interesting to see if Quique Flores’ side can look to exploit that apparent weakness.

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Must be if he went off in the first half

      1. EmreCan Hustle

      Yep, just had a 20 yard pop blocked

      1. Gaffers
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 5 months ago

        ...after two yards, in case that made it sound good

  9. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years

    I can sense a goal for Cedric

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Please god no

    2. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      please yes

  10. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Can't believe I kept Mane...

  11. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Can someone "LOL @ Aguero captainers" please. I want a goal.

    1. Zareos
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      LOL @ AGUEROOOO (c)

      (fingers crossed now)

  12. Adriano
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    I can hardly wait for Mane to explode in the following weeks. Hehe

  13. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    12 from 2 today, not bad. 36 total for the GW so far with Aguero (c) and Pelle still more than an hour to play and Koscielny coming tomorrow. My first decent GW, looks like. That said, am I OK going with this for a while or do I risk falling yet further behind?

    Ruddy (Hennessey)
    Azpi | Kosc | Cedric | Morgan | PVA (first candidate to be replaced for GW4)
    Hazard | Ritchie | Sterling | Mahrez | Westwood
    Pelle | Aguero | Sakho

    Worth taking a hit to get out Ritchie + Hazard for Pedro and...someone like a Chadli or Yaya for the WAT match (assuming I can get the numbers to work, not sure yet). Or stand pat, save the FT to use in lieu of WC for GW5 and soldier on for now?

  14. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Yaya get in the box!!

  15. tipster
    • 10 Years

    LOL @ Aguero captainers

    What happened to Mane?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Died

    2. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Knew lots of fpl were hoping he'd do well so he got injured

    3. Gaffers
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      'Concussion' reported so far

  18. Big Red Dog
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Just used WC - had Jenkinson, Mane and Wilson on the bench.

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      You can choose 11 players from your squad of 15 each week. Not necessary to WC to get Wilson off the bench.

  19. Hakuna Juan Mata

    Aguero goal will guarantee a victory over my H2H opponent but Aguero's disappeared the past 15 minutes...

    • 13 Years

  27. Somalion

    Aguero is the worst FPL pick in the history of the game.
