The second Gameweek of the season kicks off with one for the neutrals. Even at this fledgling stage in the season, the encounter between Aston Villa and Newcastle looks every inch a mid-table clash, filled with an array of budget and mid-price Fantasy assets which, while unlikely to form mainstays in our squads, still warrant our attention.

There’s certainly potential on show, with both sides fielding budget defensive curiosities in the shape of Alan Hutton and Paul Dummett. Elsewhere, Villa’s Charles N’Zogbia will continue to attempt to revive his top flight career against one of his former clubs, while Newcastle’s fresh cast of talent – notably Remy Cabella and Emmanuel Riviere – will have another attempt our turning our heads in the hunt for differentials.

The early kick-off is followed by a quartet of three o’clock clashes, before Everton host Arsenal in the big evening clash.

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

    Ivanovic reminds me of Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy.

      Wouldn't want a bigger club too. Even though he is Scottish I wouldn't want a big club ruining yet another young talented Brit!! Happens far too often. Let him go to someone like hull where he will keep improving.

      Assume you pulled the Jovetić to Bony swap then?

      Have the £.5mil waiting along with 2FT atm... Bony my first choice.

      Although, I'm really hoping a £7.5mil option reveals himself today.

      Pelle or Remy perhaps?

      Need the transfer window to close to really feel safe with any move.
