Saturday afternoon continues with a quintet of fixtures to entertain us before Everton square up to Chelsea later on. For many, the main focal point will be at the Etihad as we look to see whether Sergio Aguero will be let off the leash against Stoke, with Stevan Jovetic’s owners anticipating another home brace from the Montenegro striker.

Newcastle have been heavily backed in this week’s Scout Picks and we’ll be hoping to see new boy Siem de Jong justify our show of faith ahead of a very kind run of fixtures. Fantasy managers will also get to run the rule over Palace’s potential in the St James’ Park encounter as Neil Warnock takes the helm for a second time.

Elsewhere, Fantasy favourites such as Steven Caulker will be hoping to make an impact at home to Sunderland, while Gylfi Sigurdsson’s growing band of owners are expecting returns for the third Gameweek in succession as Swansea prepare for the visit of West Brom. West Ham welcome Southampton to Upton Park as Big Sam pins his hopes on Mauro Zarate to inspire his side to another win.

You can look to out Twitter feed for all the lineup from today’s matches.

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

    So is everyone ditching Rooney now?

    1. Tin of Directors
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Nope.

    2. Nabs Kebabs
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      he gets one more week for me

    3. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Holding on

    4. Mr_Partridge
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Surprised you show your face

    5. Arse Craic
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Tempted

    6. MBK 42
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Nope - thought he looked sharp today, just didn't get service - will keep for QPR (h) but he's out if he blanks in that.

    7. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Who cares about what everyone is doing

    8. Notorious
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Just Mata, I think I will even captain Rooney next week. 😀

    9. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      YES :D. Not having our players until we look good.

      1. Mr_Partridge
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Standard United responce

        1. Simon69
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Wow you are a serious loser.

          1. Mr_Partridge
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            Lel

            1. Simon69
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Further enhancing that reputation. Keep going. Good little boy

    10. Tin of Directors
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Practically guaranteed 90.
      Pens and free kicks.
      Di Maria through balls like hot knives through butter

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

      he has QPR home next no obviously.

    12. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Hoping his England captaincy inspires him.

    13. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No way. Burnley are solid at the back. QPR are far fron that.
      QPR home and still good fixtures to come. 3 of next 4 at home.

      I'll be keeping him for now

    14. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Got to keep for the next fixtures. But there will be a price swing between Rooney and Aguero, which makes it tempting

    15. 7shadesofsmoke
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Fixture are too good. He gets a stay of grace for me.

  2. Wakka Wakkas
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Rooney and Mata to Lamela and Aguero I think.

    May need to take a hit to get the extra 0.1. Probably do Bego to a 4.5

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Keep tabs on Cabella and De Jong, could save you the hit

  3. Wouter
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Great finish Routledge.

  4. jmcclory123
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Wayne Routledge goal for Swansea

  5. Notorious
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Routledge goal for Swansea.

    1. andyinasia
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      assist?

      1. Notorious
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        No assist.

  6. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Is bony ever going to score

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

    So if the Falcao move materialised, who would jump straight on him?

    I think I would, I watched him at Atletico and he was insane.

    1. Somalion
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Back from an ACL is my only concern.

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

        Indeed, although he never really relied on pace, and he looked pretty sharp in the Emirates cup. The most clinical finisher I've watched.

    2. RabMac
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You are a randy one

  8. 50shades of o'shea
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Swansea Routledge 2-0

  9. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Brilliant goal from Routledge.

  10. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Di Maria's last competitive club game was when he won Man Of The Match in the Champions League final.
    Today he drew 0-0 with Burnley.

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

      Personally I thought Gabi was MotM, all Di Máría did was abuse a tired AM side that desperately needed a goal.

    2. Tin of Directors
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I thought he played alright today

    3. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He was one of United's best players today

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

    It's a Rout-ledge

  12. Jairzinho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Dawson assist for Routledge.

    Siggy passed it to Dawson.

    1. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Isn't Dawson the WBA CB?

      1. 7shadesofsmoke
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        LOL

      2. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Ok yeah, you're right.

  13. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Is that another Siggy assist then? 😆

    1. Wouter
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No. No assist, was headed out from a Siggy cross though.

    2. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Would be quite generous... Crossed it into the box, and was then headed out by a West Brom defender to Routledge on the edge.

      1. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I can't remember the rules this season off the top of my head, but that used to count

  14. Frank Black
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Sigurdsson assist....?

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

      yeah first goal

  15. Gr3g
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Aguero hat-trick yet?

  16. Barnabus
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Wow-tledge!

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

    Siggy cross, cleared, ROutledge scores. Do last touches still count as assists?

  18. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    No Swansea assist

  19. Big Bad Barry
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Keep Rooney QPR at home surely he should score!

    1. andyinasia
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      That's what we said about Burnley 🙁

  20. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Just saw the assist by Siggy for the first goal. Just wow. Fantastic

  21. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Give red to Jovetic!!

    1. Henry Hill
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

  22. Pork Pie Sausage Roll

  23. Wakka Wakkas
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Wisdom fail this week. First sub. But starting Chambers. Hope he starts.

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

      don't think he will man

  24. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Could easily be a lot of blanked (c) this week

    Bravo so far Siggy (c)ers

  25. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    first Swansea goal without any Siggy FPL involvement

  26. Demí
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Toure's not done anything this season. Need to think of a new excuse for doing crap now

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      1 season wonder and looks like he passes his peak too

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

      28 mins in and 3rd game jeez

    3. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Not over his birthday cake yet Demi.

  27. Caine & Co.
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    city-stoke 0-0 FT

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Yes please. Not happening though.

  28. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    The ball rebounds and arrives at the feet of Wayne Routledge (Swansea) just outside the box. He doesn't think twice and fires a projectile inside the right post. His attempt was beyond the reach of Ben Foster (West Brom), so the score changes to 2:0.

    No assist then

  29. Rambo Motin
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    stupid stupid stupid move this week

    did Bego + Cahill > Krul + Ivan for -4

    1. 7shadesofsmoke
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Well, give the others a chance. Ivan might score 3 after seeing him in action last week
