After Chelsea’s 3-0 canter over champions Leicester at Stamford Bridge, we now face five 3pm kick-offs.

Alexis Sanchez and Theo Walcott will be looking to deal the damage as Swansea roll up to the Emirates in their first match under new manager Bob Bradley.

Man City welcome Everton to the Etihad, where Pep Guardiola has listed Sergio Aguero on the bench ahead of the midweek trip to Barcelona. Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling both recover from injury to be named in the first XI.

Heung-Min Son’s growing band of owners have also been left disappointed after he was named amongst the subs for Spurs’ trip to West Brom. The South Korean international was drafted in by more FPL managers (334,000) than any player in the previous Gameweek.

Hull roll up to Bournemouth ahead of some fine upcoming fixtures that could see Robert Snodgrass emerge as a value option for our five-man midfields.

Elsewhere, Stoke welcome Sunderland to the bet365, allowing us the chance to scout Marko Arnautovic and Xherdan Shaqiri as the Potters prepare for some fine fixtures.

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

  2. Squires FC

    9 years, 2 months ago

    10 pts from 4 so far including c. Benteke & antonio need to step up...

    antonio and sterling to walcott and lallana -4?

    1. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just Sterling to Walcott. Lallana not worth a -4 when Antonio has Sunderland at home.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        but he's playing rb which is annoying

        1. Numb
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I thought they were playing 352?

          1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

    2. MrMaverick
      • 9 Years

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He's the only one I can remove for wally

    3. Swan - Villa Proud

    4. Total Foot 5
      • 12 Years

      thinking same...antonio ag Sun is a tough one to overlook...maybe just ster > wally

  4. Jasoooooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How does PVA (potentially injured) and Antonio -> Pieters and Wally sound for a -4 point hit? Would have to do it tonight

  5. seanie3
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    is sterling to Walcott to kneejerk? he is on fire and hard to ignore but I already have sanchez...

    How did sterling play today...

    1. Brap.
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling did little

      But that was because Coleman almost broke his ankle as a frightener

      It worked (shoulda been a red, ref didn't even give a free kick)

  6. MrMaverick
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Fuming. Switched cap from wally to kun 5 mins before deadline, bottled it big time

    1. DantheManinaPan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I did same but from Payet... Now I want Payet to do well of course, but the better he does, the more nnoyed I'll be that I didn't cap him

    2. Xuey
      • 9 Years

      Exact same shoes as you. SO so mad at myself!

    1. Fowler23
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yes it should get lower

    2. ***00tennis***
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      No.....

      3 - Özil (41)

      1 - Walcott (30)

  8. Pedram

    My team looks like a sinking ship right now.

    1. bojack
      • 9 Years

      I'm concentrating on having a decent set up from GW12 to Xmas.

    The week so far courtesy of SmartyPants:
    Top 10k Average = 29.8 , Overall = 22.8
    Players played 10k = 7.9, Overall = 6.8
    Captains played 10k = 90.6, Overall = 63.2

    Don't stress with poor scores people. It's a low one all around.

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Big green for me, yeehaww

      1. Clump
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Nice one.

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Even if your score is half the average.....

      1. Clump
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Doesn't include hits. You've still got players left.

    3. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      7 players left, just need onw of them to get a haul and offset the Aguero incident.

      1. Clump
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        That's 4 more than the top 10k. Looking promising.

        1. tm245
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Here's hoping. Cheers.

  11. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Honest question, anyone thinking about selling Aguero?

    1. Clump
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Honest answer, no.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      after today yes

      maybe not on pens anymore

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        pens situation is interesting now

      2. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        KDB missed too. Could Lolarov be back on pens? Koscielny to Lolarov on the cards.

    3. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm not

    4. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      No

    5. Flying Nugget
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      happy I don't have him

    6. Mark-O
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keep but not captain next week

    7. niko mate
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Never even crossed my mind to sell him.

    8. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Never. He could get a hatty next week

    9. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      This is part of Aguero ownership. He always has chances, he usually converts enough to more than paybfoe himself.

    10. Brap.
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Nah........

  12. Butcher
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    It's funny how we don't hear from these "braggers" when they've had a bad GW.

    1. Optimus.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Well they would have nothing to brag about when they've had a bad gw in fairness

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Lol

      2. Butcher
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I didn't say they'd "brag" when they've had a bad GW.

        Sarcastic f***

        1. Optimus.
          • 14 Years

  14. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    have a feeling ibra to aguero transfers are going to backfire bigtime

  15. Tomlette Greggs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    2 goals and just the 1 bonus point for Theo?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      he missed many big chances

  16. Numb
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Top 10k average higher than I thought.

    30 with just over 4 to play

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      30? ffs

      1. Numb
        • 10 Years

        Most have Costa I think

      No.

  18. MrMaverick
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    only consolation from today should be that it will be a low scoring week in general so rank should not be affected too drastically

    kun is after all the most captained this week

  19. Henryyy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    21 from 9, bye lms? 🙁

  20. cylus11 ( Manager) - Russia…
    • 14 Years

    Is Allen injured?
    Need to bring him in

  21. willl
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Son should start next game right? Wasn't dropped, just late back from international duties. Or is he a risk now?

    1. Numb
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, he should start

  22. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How come aguero never gets slated on here no matter what?
    He's rewarded loyal owners who fork out top dollar with a ban a few blanks and now negative points
    Cheaper players get slated for far less

    1. MrMaverick
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      whats the point of slating a player that you're not going to sell?

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I might
        Only got him this gw for first time

    2. Ruth_NZ
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Slating players makes no sense. It's you that picks them. 😕

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        But other players get slated

    3. Blue Bombers CFC
      • 13 Years

      Traditionally an fpl darling

    4. Brap.
      • 9 Years

      Cos he's a G

  23. Jasoooooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Who would you ditch first? Baines or PVA?

  24. Hect.OR 98th
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Triple captain Aguero from someone in my work league. Shouldn't laugh. I only got one more point from him....

  25. thep025
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Are Joe Allen and Stanislas good replacements for Redmond in my team?

  26. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    City missed TWO penalties and Pulis f*cked me again?

    Today was a good day to be offline.

  27. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    For those with Sanchez as well as Walcott in their teams and decided to captain Walcott... what was your reasoning behind this choice?

    1. King H
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I transferred in walcott for sterling and already own snachez. I gave the armband to sanchez. Was so close to giving it to wally. Still buzzin !!

  28. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Toby went off injured? Which minute?

    1. Numb
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Around the hour mark

    2. rossonero8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      59 minute

  29. Arceus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    TC Allen next GW?

  30. Ruud van Kane
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    7 Points & -8 including CPT & 5 to play. Can't think of a worse score in 7 yrs. So much for Allen not starting and Kun def starter with GW8 rubbish. Should have gone with Milner gut feeling.
