With the impact of Sergio Agueroโ€™s four-goal blast reverberating around the Fantasy Football community, we shift to the three oโ€™clock kick-offs and await further points hauls.

How ironic that, on the day that Ageuro would draw level in the race for the Golden Boot, nine-goal Diego Costa is conspicuous by his absence. This time around the talk of injury concerns rang true as the Chelsea hitman is forced to sit out his sideโ€™s trip to Palace, triggering the Fantasy Premier League vice captain for many; for some, that meant that Aguero was on hand to sweeten the pill.

While Chelsea attempt to get by without their clinical striker, elsewhere, Fantasy managers will be monitoring events at the Emirates, Goodison and St Maryโ€™s in anticipation of points.

Arsenal, with Danny Welbeck leading the line and Aaron Ramsey back on the bench, face a free-scoring Hull side in a clash that looks set to promise goals. On Merseyside, the Leighton Baines bandwagon prepares to start its motors when Villa pay visit, while down on the south coast, the likes of Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic will have the opportunity to boost their stock with the visit of Sunderland.

West Hamโ€™s trip to Turf Moor and Leicesterโ€™s visit to Newcastle round off this afternoonโ€™s action, with no late kick-off to see us out.

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

    30pts, Foster, Naylor, Siggy, Sterling, Falcao(C) to play. Ulloa playing.

    40pts incoming ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    brought in chadli instead of tadic this week.

    i am one pathetic loser

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

      Brought in Chadli when they play city away?

      Not sure what you thought would happen!

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

        in my defense I had 2 FT's brought in baines for PvA which allowed me to keep Bertrand and Clyne then Fab --> Chadli

        otherwise would have been Clyne ---> Baines and Fab --> Tadic

  3. Art Vandelay
    • 15 Years

    I broke my rule about always playing the attacking player, but it would be churlish to moan about putting Boyd first sub instead of Duff

    1. Think Tank
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I put Duff ahead of Cork.

  4. Not Irish

    Pretty sure this GW passed me by after Aguero this morning.

    Fecking Soonalan.

  5. Colonel Shoe ่‚ๆฑ

    whod have thought aguero would be topped by tadic

    1. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Fecking Soonalan.

    On behalf of all us Saints fans, you're welcome.

      They gave me squat. Just a Clyne CS ๐Ÿ˜ก

      1. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I am a Saints expert. You should get Tadic and Pelle.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          ...last week

            Exactly.

      Can still remember my mate who supports them crying when they got relegated in 2004, how must he feel now

  9. In Bale We Trust
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Do we think Costa will be out for long?

  10. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Baps for Aguero Fabregas Sakho?

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

      3 2 3

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      You really have to ask about Aguero??

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

      3,2,?

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

    Wonder if its worth either sterling or fab out for tadic?

    1. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling

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

      Not for Cesc surely. tadic has disappointed his owners for long. Tonight is a one-off. However, if you are doing it to fund another move (like Aguero), I'd take out Sterling before Cesc.

  12. iiMuse
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Only have 44 points with Siggy and di maria to come plus Duff and Larsson to come off the bench. Luckily no one in my league had Aguero

  13. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    I have 85 pre baps while stupidly captaining welbeck.
    That's awesome with a hint of poo.

  14. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Very annoyed that the day I went C Aguero, Costa doesn't play and piles have done well with their VC.

  15. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    75 post baps 5 to go and I thought I did well.

    Its not even average here! Fecking mental.

    1. stephenl15
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      It is above average. Only the people who do well post their scores

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Aah. Ok, thanks mate.

    2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Of course it's average here. Only those with scores they are proud of post. It's an ego fest. Most of them are still rubbish and will finish 500k

    3. Whistle
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Thats a great score, only the minority post the huge ones

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

      Yeh dont worry about folk saying they scored 100+ with 5 to play. Definitely not average!

  16. halnone
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    spare a thought for those without Tadic or Aguero.

    I'm not one of them, but that has to hurt.

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

      lol

    2. Doolittle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      It hurts a lot. I'm consoling myself with the fact that, to get Aguero, I'd have ditched Sanchez and not bought Baines. Still, I could have done Sterling and Costa to Tadic and Aguero...

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

    Think I'm on around 90 with Begovic, Naylor, Siggy and ADM to play ๐Ÿ™‚
    Oh and no Tadic!

    1. supperspout
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      how?

  18. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    63 with Krul, Vardy, Sterling, Siggy, ADM(c) left..
    Would have been brilliant if i'd just stuck to Costa to Aguero(c) but if Costa is back soon i'd rather keep him

  19. Rolls-Royce

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years

      You getting Tadic? Not really doing it is he

      1. Del Griffith
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        lol .... I eat humble pie for the scouts

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

      0,2 surely. This time it is very difficult to rise 0,3

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

      ...and Boyd!

  26. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Never captain in the early game on a Saturday...

  27. rickardinho
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Owning Tadic finally pays off enormously ๐Ÿ™‚

    39 points + bps from Clyne, Tadic, and Pelle, along with Welbeck(c) 12+bps after a last-minute captain switch from Costa ... 60 points so far, and Siggy first sub to replace Costa ๐Ÿ™‚ Things look great

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

      Krul, Lovren, Taylor, Siggy, and Sterling still to play!

  28. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    52 from 5 players and I don't own Aguero or Tadic.. Not sure if I should be happy with that or not.

  29. Daniel Exeter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Seems wrong, but bit disappointed with my 57 with 5 to play.
    Some cracking scores out there, well done!!

  30. Sarnab
    • 14 Years

    MOTD will be massive tonight.. An extended show maybe
