The Dugout Discussion – West Ham vs Man City

2,250 Comments
Share

We have to face it – after the momentous points bonanza of Gameweek 8, this weekend may well be a bit of a comedown.

Six Saturday fixtures will have the task of setting us up for another round of three-figure hauls and, ironically, it all begins with last weekend’s leading man on show as Man City crash Upton Park to take on West Ham.

Sergio Aguero and City will surely face an uncomfortable ride in East London, with the resurgent Hammers giddy at the prospect of facing the champions whilst sitting in fourth place in the table. Fantasy managers will, nonetheless, be anticipating and expecting the Aguero show to rumble on through the home defence: the Argentine sports the armband for many and we’ll look for at least one goal from him amongst the huff and puff of today’s early kick-off.

Following that, we’ve just a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, before Swansea host Leicester in a gentle-looking evening clash to see us out.

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

    Got my captain choice wrong for the second week in a row, let's hope tadic can bail me out again.

    Great result for the hammers though

    A bit of perspective, Aguero really should have scored at least one today and was unlucky not to, he was a good captain pick. All this talk about should've captained Pelle or Sterling, Stoke don't win games but they won't let Soton cut through them and Liverpool have been crap recently.

    Aguero (C) made the most sense to me this week, though I did want to take a cheeky punt on Costa but not worth the risk 😉

    Wouldn't be too harsh on city or aguero. West Ham played well and i thought city were different class in the second half, they absolutely battered west ham and Aguero owners can count themselves unlucky

    For those of you feeling down, it the long run the points and the transfer value will pay off

    Costa (-0.3 soon to be -0.2 real value) >> Aguero (+0.3, so soon to be 0.2 real value) may be worth more even if Costa scores (still doubting whether he will even play).

    As a Costa owner I still would rather have done Costa+Azpi to Naylor+Aguero when I could have afford if (for free last week or for -4 this), was put off by the fact no one in my main ML had Aguero so went into cautious protect mode.
