Dean Henderson, Crystal Palace, keeper, £4.5m - home to Leicester

Picking a clean sheet has been difficult this season, with only 12 in 30 games so far.

Promoted Leicester and Ipswich are bottom two for expected goals (xG) so far so it makes sense, this early in the season, to back against them scoring.

Brighton face Ipswich and they don't have a clear number-one keeper, so Henderson is in.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool, defender, £7m - home to Nottingham Forest

I've said before that Alexander-Arnold is a double-digit return waiting to happen - FPL players know that - so go without him at your peril.

He has an expected goal involvement (xGI) of 1.7 this season with nothing to show for it.

Liverpool have a good chance for a fourth-straight clean sheet v Forest and if this team had the money then pairing Alexander-Arnold with Andy Robertson would be a dreamy move.

Rico Lewis, Manchester City, defender, £4.7m - home to Brentford

Will Lewis continue to keep Kyle Walker out of the City team?

Who knows but at the moment the young defender is a snip at £4.7m in one of the best three defences in the league.

In the absence of Rodri, Lewis has been inverting into midfield and has found himself in some fantastic attacking positions.

He missed a sitter against Ipswich in week two and has had two big chances. Rodri might be back against Brentford, but Lewis should still thrive.

Lucas Digne, Aston Villa, defender, £4.5m - home to Everton

The French full-back has so far kept summer signing Ian Maatsen out of the Villa team and has been an impressive early season performer.

He has four crosses per game so far, is taking some corners and - with Douglas Luiz gone - could be first choice for direct free-kicks.

Villa have a great run coming up so he is a good pick this week and beyond.

That felt like a long international break!

Two weeks without Fantasy Premier League is not ideal but at least we have a clear run of four Gameweeks before ANOTHER international window.

Oh well, let's forget about that for now and focus on this week's team of the week, which is Crystal Palace and Aston Villa heavy and includes Bruno Fernandes, who is due a return.

The team of the week is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

Southampton

Lastly from Southampton boss Russell Martin on team selection for the Manchester United game: "After three defeats, there inevitably will be changes. How many, you'll have to wait and see and who. It's such a difficult position because I feel fiercely loyal to players who have got us into the Premier League so I have to balance that loyalty from what they did last season to what some of them are actually doing now and the place they are in right now.

"It's always a balance and maybe I haven't got that right and maybe out of loyalty we kept going with the guys but I think now it is inevitable that changes will be made and people will have opportunities that they need to take."

Southampton boss Russell Martin on the scrutiny he has faced in recent weeks: "It's the job, I don't enjoy it, it's not a problem.

"It doesn't overwhelm me one bit, it's just part of the job.

"It's the same last season, we had a period at the start where we had a really tough time and then people can say what they want with very little recourse and will judge us based on a highlights reel of eight minutes so I treat it all the same.

"Because those same people who said things are losing four games last season spoke about what a brilliant job I did at the end of the season.

"There were people that called me a terrible appointment for the club and said they need to make a change after losing four games. There will be the same people doing that now after three games, three defeats, so I treat it all the same."

Southampton

On what has been toughest for his newly-promoted side: "I think it's the level of competition probably. I don't feel any different standing on the sidelines, it feels the same as well I first started with MK [Dons]. At that point you are immersed in the game and you are only thinking about the team.

"All of this changes of course, the level of scrutiny and the media demands and all that stuff but really it is the same job. It's just the level of competition that is different and I'm enjoying it.

"I've enjoyed the learning, I think we have learnt a lot in the first few games, I feel like we are really close to being who we want to be and what we want to be and we need to improve on the first three games as we do after any game. I've enjoyed the break in terms of seeing what we really need to focus on."

West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui on London derbies and remaining in London for their Premier League fixtures until November: "There are a lot of teams in London, so it can happen. It's true that in the first few matches we are going to stay in London for two or three months. We have to face each match with the same importance. They are going to be difficult matches for sure, for us and the opponent too. [We need to] be ready with our best face, be ready to beat each match.

West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui on signing Carlos Soler on loan from Paris St-Germain: "First of all, he's one good player. I think he can help in different positions, a good player, a good age. An experienced player despite being a young player. He can help us because he can play in different positions. We worked with him these last two weeks, because he was without a normal pre-season. Right now it's one player more and for sure will help us."

On transfers: "The market is closed, we did the best we can, we tried to improve the squad in the different positions. Now, we don't talk about the market and focus on the everyday work and the players that are, in the moment, in our squad."

West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui has been speaking in a news conference before his side face Fulham. Here is what he had to say.

On players returning from international break: "We are waiting for the last players because until this afternoon, we are not going to have all of them. I'm trying to evaluate all of them, how they are, about fitness and another thing, the mind; both are very important. They're players that travel a lot, a lot of hours on planes. We have to evaluate all these things this afternoon and to know better how they are."

On Niclas Fullkrug's return: "Let's see, he has a little problem, it was a pity. But it's true that we will evaluate him too, today. Yesterday we thought he was a little bit better, today we're going to see how he is exactly and tomorrow we are going to make the last decision about him."

"He has a deep understanding of Arsenal’s values, and since joining us as head coach in December 2019, he has taken the team to another level in an Arsenal way.

“There is a great collective team spirit at the club, and with the strong relationships we hold between us and belief in what we do. We look forward with excitement and confidence, as we continue our aim – to win together.”

Mikel Arteta has won the FA Cup and the Community Shield as Arsenal manager. The boss has also steered the club to second-place finishes in the Premier League in the past two seasons.

Arteta was also a player for Arsenal, competing for the Gunners from 2011-2016.

Arsenal's sporting director Edu said: “We are really happy that Mikel has signed a new long-term contract. It’s a very positive and proud moment for everyone at the club and an important part of what we’re all working towards.

“Mikel has shown his qualities since the very first day he joined us, not only as a football manager, but as a person with wonderful values. We have a strong belief in what we are doing and what we want to achieve together. Mikel’s new contract gives us stability and clear direction as we aim for new heights.”

Arsenal have said that Mikel Arteta's deal is "long term" but the BBC understands it runs for three years until 2027.

Arteta, who became Arsenal manager in 2019, said: “I feel extremely proud, very excited and am looking forward to what is coming next. I’m proud to be where I am and have the relationships that I have with everyone at the club.

“I feel extremely lucky to work every single day with good people and the ambition we have here. I feel very inspired, I feel challenged, I feel supported and I want to do much more than what we’ve already done together.

“Together with the players and everyone at the club, we are looking forward to the coming years, with our supporters, who have emotionally transformed the club and the team. Our supporters have transformed individuals and we are different now. You can tell that we are different and for me, that is down to them. We look forward to continuing the journey together.”

So which Premier League managers are under contract the longest?

Chelsea's Enzo Maresca and Aston Villa's Unai Emery are both contracted until 2029.

Maresca is in his first season with Chelsea having been appointed as Mauricio Pochettino's successor this summer.

Emery, meanwhile, has been at Villa since 2022 and has taken them back to the Champions League.

Newcastle's Eddie Howe could also be up there but when his deal was renegotiated in 2022 the exact length was not disclosed. All that was said was that it is a "long-term deal".

But which managers have the longest contract? We'll give you a minute to mull that over.
