A change at the top where the Aardvarks become our fifth leaders of the season. Phil Jagielka broke the deadlock with a stooping header after 18 minutes and the same player and Ryan Bertrand added cleans to break YTFIB's resistance. Claymore have also jumped over last week's leaders with a thrashing of Trusted. Clive and Beef have had some good battles in recent seasons but this was comfy for Claymore. Sergio Aguero's four goals grab the headlines but Clive will be pleased with Cesc Fabregas opening his account too.

Fred drops to third after a 1-1 draw with Final Fantasy. More red cards than goals in this one with Cesar Azpilicueta and Federico Fazio dismissed for the Gardeners while Damien Delaney got sole use of the Final Fantasy bath before half-time. The Muppets were also held, 2-2 by San Dimas. Mo Diame's great scoring run continued with the opener but Romelu Lukaku equalised just after the break. Sadio Mane opened his account with four minutes left but the Muppets couldn't hang on and Danny Welbeck found enough room to get the leveller in the last minute.

FCK2 fell to their first league defeat with Mega Bucks the 4-1 winners. This game was level at one each going into the last minute before Philippe Coutinho found the bottom corner and before Kevin's team could recover Steven Caulker steered one into his own net. The CFJs have the evil eye over Athletico at the moment and after a cup win a couple of weeks ago Chris added the league points too. Of all the money he's shelled out trying to replace Bale and Suarez the £11m spent on Graziano Pelle is looking the best value right now.

Nil Satis picked up only their second win of the campaign against the parrots. Oscar's stunning free-kick opened the scoring but Paul needed a Nathaniel Clyne clean to win the points after Joe Hart's saved penalty had got Dean an equaliser. After knocking Matthew out of the PCMT Ben also took the league points from his brother. Christian Eriksen got the first for the Artisans and Enner Valencial opened his WSFFl account early in the second half to complete the scoring.

Fred's impressive start to the season continued with a thrashing of 2012/13 champs the CFJs. Three down at the break through Bony, Hazard and Lallana, Chris did reply through Radamel Falcao's first WSFFL goal before the Gardeners added three cleans to round off a 6-1 win. Also on five wins out of six, but going about in a much more sedate way, are the Aardvarks. Ady's team fell behind to Trusted when David de Gea saved a penalty but Beef failed to build and cleans from Winston Reid and Ryan Bertrand gave the Aardvarks the points.

Claymore are right behind the top two but were given a scare by the Parrots. Two more from Papiss Cisse and a strike from Wayne Routledge had dean three up with 15 minutes left but Sergio Aguero pulled one back with two minutes left and cleans from Kolarov, Ivanovic and Michael Dawson turned the tables. FCK2 are still unbeaten but lost ground on the leaders with a draw at Cheese Makers. Kyle Naughton limped off with a clean early on but a close range header from Diafra Sakho tied things up on the hour.

The Muppets and Final Fantasy join FCK2 on 12 points. Ryan's team beat the Artisans 2-1. Mo Diame got the winner with half an hour left but this could have been different if the usually reliable Leighton Baines hadn't missed a penalty for Ben's team earlier in the game. Final Fantasy beat San Dimas by the same score. Cup hero Connor Wickham opened the scoring on four minutes but Saido Berahino's spot-kick had me level 11 minutes into the second period. Yaya Toure's taken some stick this season but the Ivorian got the winner late on, stroking in from distance after evading my defence.

Athletico are into the top half after breaking down YTFIB late on. Julian resisted Diego Costa's advances for 78 minutes and then collapsed to concede two further cleans. There's a change at the foot of the table. Mega Bucks got their first win of the league campaign over fellow strugglers Nil Satis 3-2. Steven Fletcher's been goal-shy for a while but his brace gave Dave an unassailable lead beofre a late consolation from Nikica Jelavic. Paul's defence is comfortably the league's leakiest.

Most of the big guns showing their strength this week and FCK2 beat the leaders for the second week running.

Fred is our new leader and his 'counters' column suggests he might be tough to stop. YTFIB took a two goal lead through Peter Crouch and a splendid headed own goal from Fred's big money defender Eliaquim Mangala. Craig Dawson and Nacer Chadli got the game level and cleans from Dawson, Courtois and Azpilicueta sealed the win. The Aardvarks are second and going about their business quietly. That's if you can call an injury time screamer of a winner by Phil Jagielka quiet. The Parrots found themselves on the wrong end of that one.

FCK2 are third after knocking the league leaders off their perch for the second week running. The Muppets were the victims this week, Diafra Sakho on target again for Kevin with Ben Foster and John Terry getting the cleans to round out a 3-0 win. Claymore are up to fourth after winning their second 'bluenose derby' of the season against Nil Satis. 4-0 was the margin in the PCMT, this time it was 5-1. Wayne Rooney and Sergio Aguero scored for Claymore and Oscar replied for Paul all in the first seven minutes. It quietened down after Rooney saw red but Clive's three cleans got the job done.

Final Fantasy dropped to sixth after a third straight league defeat. The Artisans gaining their first three points of the campaign thanks to a Patrick van Aanholt clean. Ceri has struggled since winning August MOTM. Perhaps this month's award will break the jinx! The CFJs are next after a comfortable win over San Dimas. Graziano Pelle's acrobatic finish broke the deadlock midway through the second half and Willian soon walked in other. San Dimas sub Saido Berahino kept nudging me in the ribs but didn't get on and Chris's team ran out 4-0 winners.

Trusted are into the top half after finally looking like champions this season. The game against Athletico to'ed and fro'ed and was tied at 3-3 with three minutes left before Trusted landed three cleans to make this look more one-sided than it probably was. Mega Bucks are bottom but have a point. Charlie Austin's excellent control and volley looked set to deliver all three until Danny Simpson came off the bench to get Cheese Makers' equalising clean.

Week Four Results

Ceri's first league defeat opens the door for Ryan to go top.

The Muppets are back on top after this week's games. Angel di Maria opened the scoring with a cute chip (he looks a £14m bargain!) and Raheem Sterling fired home a rocket on the way to the win over Cheese Makers. Fred is up to second after a 3-0 stroll over reigning champions Trusted. On the subject of bargains what about Leonardo Ulloa at £1m? He scored two more to take his total to five this season.

The Aardvarks are third after edging out Nil Satis. Ander Herrera scored Ady's winner for the second week running with Paul slumping to a fourth successive defeat despite Nikica Jelavic's excellent scissor-kick. Final Fantasy's first defeat drops Ceri to fourth. FCK2 scored early through Diafra Sakho and Steven Caulker added a second before the break. Kevin is fifth and the last unbeaten team in the league.

The Dead Parrots became the first team to stop Diego Costa but still fell to the Phoenix. Papiss Cisse equalised twice for Dean but Per Mertersacker got Brian's deciding clean. San Dimas were another team to be pegged back twice and still prevail. YTFIB levelled Lukaku and Welbeck goals through Diouf and Crouch but Yannick Bolasie's first WSFFL goal gave me the win.

Narrow losers for the fourth straight league game were Mega Bucks, this time 1-0 to Claymore. Aly Cissokho steered into his own net to give Clive the points, Dave still pointless. Mega Bucks not bottom though. The Artisans prop the league up after defeat to the CFJs. Leighton Baines late penalty equalised Mesut Ozil's first half goal and seemed set to share the points but Santiago Vergini and Jason Shackell got the cleans to deliver Chris' first win.

Chris's hold on the trophy was looking pretty tenuous after 67 minutes when Diego Costa completed his hat-trick and put the Phoenix 3-0 up. The CFJs fought back to grab the win but I don't suppose anyone expected Julian Speroni to be the hero with a saved penalty and a clean.

Cheese Makers were another team to find themselves 3-0 down and live to fight another day. The Fabulous Artisans looked to have picked up their first win of the season, even after Matthew had brought it back to 3-2, when Loic Remy extended the lead with nine minutes to go. Cleans from Jose Fonte and Ben Mee means this one goes back to the Stade de Fromage this weekend.

Two big wins this week. The Muppets 5-1 over FCK2, an early John Terry own goal set Kevin off on the wrong foot and he never recovered. Claymore were much like their old selves and were emphatic 4-0 winners of the 'Bluenose Derby', Morgan Schneiderlin curled in a beauty in the last minute to end any hope of a Nil Satis comeback.

A narrow win that was big in meaning came from the Mega Bucks. Dave's team are into the quarters after 11 straight failed attempts. September signing Gabby Agbonlahor had scored early on debut but Fred looked safe at 3-1 up until three Mega Bucks cleans made history.

Three 1-0 wins to report too. The Aardvarks inflicted Ceri's first defeat of the season thanks to Ander Herrera's goal, Beef needed new signing Abel Hernandez's header to beat YTFIB while a goal after two minutes from Romelu Lukaku was the difference between San Dimas and the Parrots.

Replay

After a 1-1 draw in the second game the Artisans made it through in the second replay thanks to cleans from Federico Fernandez and Patrick van Aanholt.
