With the title race back on, we turn to five Premier League encounters to keep the Gameweek rolling, before Manchester City look to maintain the Chelsea chase with three points against Everton at the Etihad.

Fantasy managers will be concentrating their attention on two venues in particular, with QPR hosting fellow strugglers Burnley at Loftus Road, whilst Arsenal and Alexis Sanchez pay visit to the Britannia to take on Stoke.

Sanchez is undoubtedly the most popular asset on show before Sergio Aguero takes to the turf this evening, as the Chilean looks to extend his run of seven goals in as many league outings. The Gunners are also chasing a third straight clean sheet, although Mark Hughes’ Potters are unlikely to give them an easy ride – the big team news from the Britannia is that Olivier Giroud earns a recall, with Danny Welbeck benched.

As for QPR, Charlie Austin will be carrying the hopes of both Harry Redknapp and a horde of Fantasy managers as he looks to continue a rich vein of scoring form when the Clarets pay visit. Danny Ings will be one to watch for the visitors in a battle of the budget strikers down at Shepherds Bush.

Elsewhere this afternoon, Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen take increased ownership into the White Hart Lane encounter with Crystal Palace, whilst at Anfield, Liverpool (with Steven Gerrard benched again) will look to build on the 3-1 midweek win over Leicester with another three points against visiting Sunderland. Hull City’s Humberside date with West Brom rounds off the day’s offerings, before we take the trip to Manchester to catch the latest episode of the Aguero show.

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

    Aguero owners!

    Selling keeping...

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Depends how long he is out for

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping for now

    3. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Waiting for news. If it's not as serious as first though many will regret selling.

    4. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      11 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping for now and dealing with one or two of my other problems first (Chambers, Cesc, Austin, Duff etc.)

      If news on Aguero is bad then I can always use my wc....

  2. The Light Knight
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    At least I don't have many points wasted on the bench this week

  3. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    46 with only 3 to play.

    4. Woohoo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      You should give up that's embarrassing, only a score in the top 30k, you'll drop like a stone in the rankings

  4. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

  5. jordinho23
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

  8. ameenkw
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    will this be the first ever FPL GW with a GK as its top scorer .. thats freaking scary, but looks viable so far!!!!

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

      No

  9. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hopefully people don't go crazy again and start taking out Aguero now...don't want him to drop 0.2M before the weekend.

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

      They probably will.

      1. djenzio
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        this is the year of panic. i wish people would be more sensible and wait till friday to make any changes

    2. Mr. Grv
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I already did had exact money cannot afford any drops

  10. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Can definitely see azpil benching next week. Regardless of the knock I think it'd be a good week to give luis a game

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Won't Luis play midweek though?

  11. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Are we sure that Azpi didn't go off due to the knock he received not long before? He was hobbling around.

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      God I hope not

  12. Mr. Grv
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    one of my frnd bought augero this gw and captained him

    1. RyanC
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      When's the movie coming out?

      1. CTID_
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Lol

      2. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I think it may be a comedy

    2. Mr. Grv
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      forgot to mention it for a -4

      1. RyanC
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        The plot thickens.

  13. stephenl15
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    18 points and I'm not even disappointed. Everyone has Aguero captain and also I benched chambers. Keep the faith.

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Better call Saul

    2. 32chickens
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      quite a drop from 44
      my chickens have been on a memory enhancing course

      1. stephenl15
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I was taking the piss 😛

  14. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard (C) next week

    😉

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Captain anyone not injured

  15. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    FPL Discovery saying that the average for both groups is around 22

    However

    Overall only 7.5 out of 11 players have been played, 8.7 out of 11 have been played in the top 10k.

    78.2% of captains played in the overall group, 98.7% in the top 10k.

    Could be a fair few falling out of the top 10K this week.

    1. 7shadesofsmoke
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      It sounds like everyone has done equally shite.

      Doubt we'll see many movers, just a few big movers where the odd manager has actually produced a decent score

      1. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I've had an alright one 😉

        But yes, I just have a feeling some of the lower 10k group could drop out.

  16. Lanley Staurel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Top scorer in top 10k got 57 so there won't be much movement if you got a crud score.

    1. CTID_
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Even if I got 8?

      1. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Ahh.... I said crud not disastrous!

  17. 7shadesofsmoke
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Just done Austin out for Aguero
    Raised the money by downgrading Aguero to Austin

    Good moves?

  18. CTID_
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    8 points with 3 too play 🙂 FML

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I feel a little better now. Thanks 🙂

  19. Chenku╰☆╮
    • 11 Years

    is pantilimon nailed on?

  20. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    25 points no hits with Guzan, Downing and Sigurdsson. Would never imagine that to be a decent gameweek. Congrats to the Ramsey/Toure owners. Walters isn't a bad shout either.

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

      You're one of the few people not moaning with a score like that. People forget it's all relative.

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Those people are just passively bragging.

  21. ADucksBehind
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Lads question.

    Can i boot someone from a mini league?

    Its a draft league and one guy is breaking all the rules

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, you should be able too

      1. ADucksBehind
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Any idea how?

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

      how are they breaking rules?

      I need to try this 😛

      1. ADucksBehind
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Not dropping players, picking up players they shouldnt etc.

        1. sedm2810
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          We tried a draft league once using the FPL website- one idiot just ruined the league by transferring in players he wasn't allowed to. I really don't think those sorts of leagues work without using software designed for them.

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

      What rules ?

    4. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yep. I once got booted for being top.

      1. Azerbaijan Shopping Centre
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        🙂 did you

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

          Aye. It was a cash league too. I had to chase him down for my money. No idea how he thought I'd let him get away with that.

    5. 32chickens
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      depends which platform-
      fantrax-the answer is yes
      if HOH is still around he's actively running a few I believe

    6. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      this being the above referenced HOH

      you can and you should

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        i must go to bed... midnight here

        you can send an e-mail to my spam e-mail account if you want to discuss further

      2. ADucksBehind
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Its just a regular H2H league on FPL that we control ourselves

        1. 32chickens
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          A)home made draft=home made governance=collectively talking nicely=refusing to trade with rule breaker if he/she breaks rules

          B)if its home made there are no rules

          1. 32chickens
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            C)the geezer doesn't understand the norms

            1. 32chickens
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 2 months ago

              D) close your league down then all move to fantrax platform and recommence without breaker-maybe agree to fix draft to keep squads you have at closure of league

              1. 32chickens
                • 15 Years
                11 years, 2 months ago

                Z)give up

  22. jordinho23
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Waiting till news before I transfer Aguero out. If out for a few weeks them im keeping

    1. Demel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Why?!

    2. djenzio
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      if it's 3 weeks or less it's worth keeping unless you only got him. I got him ages ago at cost price so gonna keep if it's 3 weeks or less

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

      Too many fixtures even if out for a couple of weeks

  23. djenzio
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Costa off the boil. Aguero injured. Austin suspended.

    who is looking good next week up front? Lukaku got easiest fixture but don't know about him.....

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Benteke and dzeko

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Cisse, Rooney, Costa, Benteke look like the contenders.

      1. djenzio
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        wait and see how Tekkers n Rooney do tomorrow.

        I don't think Utd is a good option next week though. Have a feeling we are gonna win. Gerrard would be a good punt next week. big game player

  24. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    cisse

  25. Azerbaijan Shopping Centre

  26. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I hate it when you buy a player really early and you might have to get rid of them...and then when you want to buy them back you can't.

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, Aguero, going to lose a lot of value

  27. AH 🙂

  30. Screaming Midget
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years

      Probably

    2. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yep
