Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Manchester City vs Chelsea

Gameweek 14 gets up and running this Saturday lunchtime as Manchester City entertain Chelsea at the Etihad.

This sees the two most popular forwards in Fantasy Premier League, Sergio Aguero and Diego Costa, go head-to-head, with the Argentine looking to improve a record that has seen him score just twice in front of his own supporters to date.

He faces a tough task, though, considering that the visitors have conceded once in the last seven rounds of fixtures.

Costa, meanwhile, has scored in all but one of his away appearances and rolls up as the most consistent player in FPL, with returns in 11 of the first 13 Gameweeks.

The top scoring player in FPL, Eden Hazard has toiled on his travels, scoring just one of his seven strikes outside of Stamford Bridge.

Benched away to Burnley last time around, there’s no surprise to see Kevin De Bruyne return to the City first XI as Pep Guardiola looks for the win that would leapfrog the visitors into first.

      21 from three. A bit out of character for me.

    3 match ban for aguero = mass costa transfers in? Ibrahimovic differential?

    I'd just like to say my transfer this week was Aguero to Kane. 😎

    2. Jasoooooooo
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      It was my transfer as well and then I did Kaku -> Costa for a hit 🙂

    1. Worzel Gummidge
        7 years, 5 months ago

        He just had cramp but you will get the morons talking nonsense as usual. If he gets flagged then I will be annoyed.

    2. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years

      Can't believe I still come here on matchdays...

        Thank God I captained Sanchez and not Aguero.

      • bojack
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Pathetic by City that. Moaned about every decision and then kicked off after being outplayed.

      • In Bale We Trust
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        4 match ban for Kun as it's his second violent conduct case of the season?

      • Total Foot 5 - romario 11
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        who is more essential:

        1 dcosta
        2 haz

        1. Nomar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Selling Kun and getting both!

        2. rivercityransom
          • 8 Years

          this is the question right here

      • Coaly
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        City unlucky there

        Could have won 4-0 on another day

      • Jay_

          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          I still have my wildcard and Kun.

          As an Aguero-less owner of Costa and Hazard, i'm in Nirvana right now!

          1. bojack
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Have you replaced Kurt as lead singer? 😀

        • justmatt
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Cracking game to start the weekend... Mixed fortunes for me with Kun, Hazard & Alonso but what a match!

        • Messiah Hazard
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Aguero's -1 sucks. But 27 points from 3 Chelsea players is great

        • Winks Club
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Ibra or Costa?

        • The Royal Robin
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          As a non Costa and Kane owner, who do you recommend?

          1. 32chickens
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            watch kane this afternoon is what I would recommend

          2. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Costa is essential.

          3. weaver93
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            See if Man U & Spurs can create quality services to their
            strikers...

            Kelechi might be a good punt...

        • Alan The Llama
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Aguero's a -1 specialist

        • Alnair
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Costa is so pathetic, watch him get the yellow now.

          1. Bubz
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Why is he pathetic?

        • Hakuho FPL
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Thank god for that kun red, makes hazard move easier.

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Coutinho enabling an easy Sigurddson (and Kane for Lukaku move)

          Aguero enabling Costa, Kane and Ibra at ease

          #Boring!

        • Bouncebackability
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Hits galore this week.

          Most taking a -4 surely.

          Can't get Costa in with a doubt hanging over him.
