Now that the disappointment of England's two Wembley defeats over the international break have been swept under the carpet (at least for now), we can begin focusing on a new Fantasy Football Gameweek. The Premier League swings back into action tomorrow afternoon and so with it comes the resumption of our own WhatCulture! Fantasy League. There's some enticing matches scheduled over the weekend - the early Saturday kick-off sees the first Merseyside derby of the season as Everton play host to high-flying Liverpool, before Arsenal take on Southampton and Chelsea visit West Ham. Then, on Sunday, we have what promises to be a mouth-watering affair as Tottenham travel to the Etihad to battle Man City in a crunch game for both sides, before champions Manchester United attempt to continue their good run of recent form by seeing off Cardiff City in Wales. Of course, the results of each of these games have strong ramifications, now only on the Premier League table but also on our Fantasy Football league, which is currently being topped by Dean Madden's 'Deans Park Rangers', but can YOU overtake him?. Here, we take a look at 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 12 that might help you do just that.
