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.

      He won't make them defend any better

  7. The Finnisher

    Now Baines is back in fashion I am guessing?

      essential, i believe

    2. Reed_Rothchild

      I would rather have the Bale like forward runs of Coleman.

    Ramsey to ADM a good move? Thinking of this for -4 as I have 2FT. Leaves me 1m in the bank (to sort defence) :

    Blackett -> PVA
    Ramsey -> ADM
    Naismith -> Welbeck

    Bego (gilks)

    Terry - PVA - Chambers (Chester, wisdom)

    ADM - Fab - Siggy - Sterling (Marney)

    Costa - Rooney - Welbeck

    Every team needs a Matic. What a player

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Is this your new catchphrase?

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

      I'd probably take Fernandinho over Matic. He is immense.

    cesc - matic or ramirez
