What a difference a week makes. Just seven days ago to the minute, we were right here totting up points from Sergio Aguero’s four-goal haul against Spurs. Today many Fantasy managers are left gazing on the Argentine’s two-point total at West Ham and regretting transfers and their armband decision. It’s now left to Saturday’s remaining fixtures to sweeten such a bitter pill.

Raheem Sterling will carry the can for some as Liverpool host a Hull City side nursing a lengthy injury list. Meanwhile, down on the south coast, Ronald Koeman’s revolutionsied Saints look to continue their climb up the table as they take on Stoke – Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic the headline acts on show.

Arsenal’s trip to Sunderland and West Brom’s Hawthorns meet with Crystal Palace will see some Fantasy managers relying on output from Danny Welbeck and Saido Berahino. Finally, in today’s tea-time kick-off, it may well fall to Gylfi Sigurdsson to save many a Gameweek total as the Swans host Leicester City.

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

      Well done! Gonna be a real tough choice next week with Arsenal playing Burnley, Chelsea QPR and the Kun at home.

    Went for Gibbs over Chambers as i had the extra funds going spare, and Gibbs ends up getting booked instead. Oh and Chambers is on for a bonus point.

    Love this game

      I benched Chambers. Played Taylor, Clyne and Coleman. Had to bench him.

    4. A Defender's Nightmare
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      For -4
      Costa ➡ Kun (C)
      Moreno ➡ Chambers (benched)

      Siggy would've been my Captain if I hadn't brought in Kun for a hit.

    It seems there was no 'right answer' to Captain choice this week.

    All of the major picks (Aguero, Pelle, Sterling) all flopped. Just have to wait and see if Costa starts...and if Siggy explodes

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Siggy to fail as well..United will hold Costa

      Defo was - Benteke

    3. KunBaYaya My Lord

      Baines C

    4. Hybrid.power

      There will be a random player with the highest score. Actually, probably Eriksen.

    5. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Costa

  4. Mílanista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Forster, Clyne and Bertrand all in the overall dream team.

        If only I could pick some other dream team players before they score decent points.

    2. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      That team has been unreal so far.

  5. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • 11 Years

    Need Siggy and Fabianski to do well

  6. Sz21
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    22 from 6 players including Captain.
    Maybe a bonus point or two from Mane.. My only bright spark..

    Could have been worse I suppose?

  7. Azathoth
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Damn my mind . My instinct was saying to cpt Sanchez , but i didn't dare and cpt Kun . Nevermind . Don't cry for me Argentina......just score 3 next GW.

  14. davies

    Worst GW ever.

    Sterling and Welbeck > Sanchez and Sakho for -4?

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      everyone will go for this..wait till Friday

      Decent game week so far. But considering same transfers.

  15. Lingardium Leviosa.

    ok i'm done with the banter 😐

    1. Mílanista

      *mediocre trolling

  16. UKG

    Highlight of today. Bruce third sub clean sheet at Anfield, couldn't write it! Another poor week so far.

    1. DRY PEANUT
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      My team for the guy who asked... Should be rank climb

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Why?

      1. DRY PEANUT
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        The guy suggested I was bullshitting

    3. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah looks like a green arrow this week

  17. Mr Sarcastic
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I just hope no one did DiMaria, Costa -> Tadic, Aguero.
    Surely no one did that for a hit anyway.

  18. Chambo
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Most frustrating gameweek ever... so far

  19. Bolivian Seaman
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    El classico!

  20. A guy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hope Costa doesn't play. Put Chambers on the bench although I was 99% sure of the CS, because of some morons here.

    1. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Ultimately it's your team. If your gut said play you should have played him. Chambers on my bench too so I feel your pain in that regard.

      1. A guy
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Definetly yeah, but of course my decisions are slightly affected by suggestions from other people. Another example, I was choosing between Aguero+Tadić and Sanchez+Pelle for -4 this GW, and although I knew who's going to score more I chose the first pair due to 100% of people saying that they're a better pick...and now look 🙂

  21. Rambo Motin
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Is it likely Sanchez to rise 0.1 in the next price change?

    1. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I doubt it. He is -something on FPLStats and too expensive for most without a hit.

    2. Rambo Motin
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Don't want to be caught out like last week when Aguero rose straight away

  22. galway77
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I had Sanchez captain... 50pts from 4 any gud

    1. DRY PEANUT

      Beauty

    2. Rambo Motin

  23. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years

    Nasri to Sanchez last week 29 points
    Best transfer of my season

  24. Robbens Diving Instructor
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Went for Welbeck instead of Berahino. Disappointing

  25. MJ6987

    This a week to forget and move on for me. I enjoyed my week in the top 1k!

    1. Debauchy

      Not any huge movement , that I can see , yet

  26. Debauchy
    • 12 Years

    Wow Pool Cleanie - but wtf

  27. Jay_
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Considering I have no Chelsea players at all
      Siggy Sterling > Sanchez Hazard -4 ?

    • DIegoCosta19
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sanchez or Walcott for Burnley (H)

    • 4vets
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      So, having mistakenly left Siggy and Naylor on the bench and playing Ulloa, I find myself a Leicester supporter for a 2 odd hours.
