Sunday serves up a trio of Gameweek encounters, with Thursday’s Europa League ties pushing Hull and Tottenham’s home fixtures alongside Man United’s trip to the Stadium of Light.

Events begin at the KC Stadium and White Hart Lane, with Steve Bruce’s Hull hosting Stoke and Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs facing a London derby clash with QPR. Fantasy managers will be focused mainly on the latter, with Christian Eriksen the top owned asset on show from the early kick-offs.

Attention then turns to the North East, with Louis van Gaal’s United outfit taking on Sunderland in a bid to get their season underway following the opening day defeat to Swansea. With a staggering 48% ownership, Wayne Rooney remains the headline act, while Juan Mata’s 19% ownership will be holding out for returns in order to stem a tide of sales that have already seen the Spanish playmaker drop in price.

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

    Chester owners, what you doing with him ?

    1. Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Keeping, I'm lucky because I have Coloccini (CRY) to come in for him

    2. vova
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Just bench him next week.

    3. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      Out one week so keeping.

    4. Qubit
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      keeping I guess.

    5. Coaly
      • 13 Years

      Keeping

    6. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

    7. Olivier Bernards watch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      keeping. At this stage, transfers are too precious to waste on budget defenders.

  9. Milner4eva
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Keep. The. Faith.

  10. vova
    • 15 Years

    Ah, today isn't going as planned. First Chester and Bojan, now Mata's ( who I transferred out for Sterling). Oh well, 54 points.

      Yep. Magnanimity does not seem to be a defining feature of fantasy managers, me included I guess.

    4. KJT123
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      That's what happens when you knee jerk to the highest order

  14. Qubit
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    LVG wasn't joking about the 3 months thing, lots of work still to do there

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      they don't need him. they need 2 strikers.

    2. Tommytour
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Chester > Dawson

  17. AlCapwnUK
    • 11 Years

    Chester is now the only stinker in my UFPL team. Should have started Shawcross.

      0.1 loss or goal?

      Yeah thought so

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Fabregas did get an assist chap

      2. Not Irish

        Do you own OG? 😀

    • Coaly
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Lololol Rojo wanted in court in Argentina for bottle attack on neighbour. Imagine their defence without Shaw, Rafael, Evans, Smalling and Rojo

    • ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      In all fairness, prior to the goal, Man Utd looked absolutely awful

    • Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Mata will get a red card and a couple own goals now. 😉

    • SW6
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      BPS updated for earlier games. Lamela owners look away

      3 Points (52 BPS): Adebayor
      2 Points (41 BPS): Chadli Dier

      3 Points (30 BPS): Shawcross
      2 Points (25 BPS): Jelavic
      1 Point (19 BPS): Huddlestone Wilson McShane Bardsley

    • MJ6987
      • 15 Years

      I'm sure Larsson will be happy to let Mata claim that one.

    • BantamPhil
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Those who sold Mata, you were warned
