Settle down, we’ve no less than three Premier League encounters to take us into Antiques Roadshow, with Fantasy points hopefully continuing to flow following yesterday’s drama. We’ve opened our Dugout Discussion chatroom to capture the real-time chatter, just in time for our first kick-off at Anfield, as Liverpool face the Gunners. Full line-ups here are…

Liverpool XI: Reina, Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique, Allen, Sahin, Gerrard, Sterling, Borini, Suarez.
Substitutes: Jones, Carragher, Shelvey, Downing, Henderson, Kelly, Coates.

Arsenal XI: Mannone, Jenkinson, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Cazorla, Arteta, Diaby, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Giroud, Podolski.
Substitutes: Koscielny, Martinez, Santos, Ramsey, Coquelin, Gervinho, Walcott.

Later today, we’re treated to Newcastle vs Villa and Southampton vs United at St Mary’s. With Carlos Tevez delivering on his captaincy promised yesterday, all eyes will now be on Robin Van Persie as he takes on the Saints as United’s chief goal threat in the absence of the injured Wayne Rooney.

Enjoy today’s games, we’ll see you on the other side with the Stock Check…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      You're basically selecting everyone who did well for the first 3 GW's. Good luck for the future.

      Begovic - hell fixtures
      Rafael - will get rotated out once Jones and Smalling come back
      Jenkinson - Sagna will be back GW4
      Sterling - won't play every game
      Podolski - I'm a Gooner, but you'd be better off with Demba Ba

      Chelsea doesn't really convince me to be perfectly honest so I am risking going into GW4 with no Chelsea attacking cover. Out of those I think I might have gone with B for a couple of weeks and then got rid of Fernando.

      United have relied on Rooney for the last 2 years and come 1st and 2nd. No difference, just a different player.

        Not with that defence, Vidic is skinny now and his power has gone, players are bullying him now.

        City have countered the van Persie signing by bulking up defence.
