After a subdued Saturday programme, Sunday explodes on us with veritable feast of football featuring five of last season’s top seven sides. While Chelsea’s visit to the Etihad at tea-time is undoubtedly the headline act, we’ve plenty to keep us engaged until the 4pm kick-off.

The day begins with a pair of fixtures, with Leicester looking to continue their impressive start to their campaign against Louis van Gaal’s United redux, whilst at the Lane, Spurs will be seeking to dish out further punishment to a West Brom side that’s faltered out of the blocks so far.

That’s rounded off by the main event in Manchester, with Everton’s Goodison clash with Crystal Palace running alongside it. Fantasy managers look set for a eventful afternoon,then, with the day’s events potential turning Gameweek fortunes on their head.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news and key injury updates as the night draws in and Gameweek 5 draws to a close.

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

    Had Schurrle for 3 weeks and he got 3 consecutive 1 pointers. The week I sell him, if course he has to score! 🙁

    Bets off on Chelsea winning the league, streets ahead of the rest.

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      😆 They have been second best the entire game,

      1. For Fuchs Sake
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        but they are ahead and can grind out results, can't see that from other teams.

    Hazard on the road to returns again 😀

  13. Reed_Rothchild

    Anyone wildcarding to get Schurrle?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      me

  14. 1314
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Did di Maria get injured or is he fine ?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Just knackered.

  15. Jafooli
    • 14 Years

    Classic JM

  16. Willis.
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Is this the earliest a team has ever won the league?

    1. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Celtic the year Rangers were removed from the league. Basically handed the title before the season even started

  17. McNulty
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Such inconsistent refereeing

  18. DIegoCosta19
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Iv'e said it 100x and I'll say it again. Schurrle is by far better than Willian

    1. BabyB
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Going forward yes. Defensively willian is better which is why he will play in the big games.

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        So you would have thought Schurrle in the PL, and Willian in the UCL, now that the PL is won?

    2. 7shadesofsmoke
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      because he's just scored a goal?

      I think the reason they are in for a clean sheet is much to do with Willians work ethic.

      Different player used for a different impact.

      They work well in combination when one comes on for the other.

    Chelsea and Arsenal know how to handle these games after midweek European action. Take note Liverpool, Everton and Spurs.

    1. Azathoth
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Spurs don't know how to handle any match......

    Benching Terry looks like a fail...

    1. Red Devil Swede
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Your own fault if you did. Mou likes his tight games.

    2. Yome
      • 14 Years

      Worst is those who did Terry to Baines haha. Glad I played Terry

    Everton Spurs Pool City United all dropping points this week

  27. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Palace 3-1.

    Wins me £500 in the work last man standing league!

    So:

    Mangala - Will he be starting?

    As a United fan I can take today because I got some FPL points and everyone else has lost as well! Or likely to lose at least.

  28. palace ash
    • 16 Years

    Two more goals and we'll be above Man U.

  29. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Haz how many bonus pts will he get? right not as per total 0. Schurly cannot be the case for the man wh started the cross from midfield and soon after assists.

    Naismith YC = 0 points (c) = 0 points 🙁
