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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      Depends on whether they'll get him practising his 3 yard finishing into an open goal during the week.

          not true

    • mcrayeps
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Aguero+fletcher+kingsley to ibra+siggy+cedric

      Really one aguero could balance my entire team lok

        • 7 Years

        Good choice.

    • TheBusDriver
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I'm not really happy about the Aguero red card. Aguero owners who don't have Ibra/Costa are going to get either of them.

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

        Those of us who got Costa at wholesale price or near care not πŸ˜€

    • PvA
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Aguero ➑ Costa

      Obvious move?

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

        I'd hang on until we know what comes out of the brawl at the end. But Costa's looking like a season keeper at the minute, unplayable.

      2. Odikostar
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Nah, keep him and play amat mate

      3. GreenArrows
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        If you don't have Kane then its between Costa and Kane

    • Give Me the Mane
      • 7 Years

      What a time to sell Aguero, just sold him for this week but he still got me points πŸ™‚

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

        GG

      2. Ziro
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Got you what points?

        1. Give Me the Mane
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          He got a -1 so that is basically points for me as I sold him

    • Speédy
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Love kun,never owned him,nice to see him do this,also gave me nacho as a replacement for giroud

    • Somalion
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      They ask about Luiz's injury but not Costa's.

      Top notch skillz.

    • liiusions
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Don't think I'll get Aguero back till at least GW23

    • Painter
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I'll make the decision when I wake up tomorrow (I live in Australia)
      Kane/ibra

    • DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years

      How many games does aguero miss?

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        44444444444

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Wow costly.

      2. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        4

        1. TheOx95
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          He could miss more for that tackle too though.

      3. dhamphiir
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Arsenal

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

      Aguero + Fuchs > Costa + Alonso

      The deed is done.

    • Gashead9
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      How long is Kun gonna be suspended for?

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

        4 games.

    • Bubz
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Ffs

      1. Ziro
        • 9 Years

        Yes you got the site name correct.

      2. Odikostar
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Nice membership tag you've got there bubz

    • davies
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Would you do all these transfers for -8?

      Vertonghen > Alonso
      Arnautovic > Siggy
      Aguero > (C)osta

      I think just the last 2 would be sensible - but Vertonghen could get suspended today.

    • GreenArrows
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Aguero to Costa, leaves me with 3.7m in the bank!

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Is Costa ok then? Looked fine in the interview

      1. Somalion
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Well enough to give the interview anyway. I thought his walk off the pitch didn't look particularly painful so assumed he was just being careful.

      2. Worzel Gummidge
          7 years, 5 months ago

          He is fine. As a guy who constantly gets cramp he had cramp. He should be fine.

        • n-doggg
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Can't believe Clive didn't ask him.

        • HurriKane
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          he just wanted to get subbed before he gets a yc

          just imagine if he stayed. he'd surely be involve in the fight

      3. Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years

        Now everyone will have Kane and Costa. FML.

        nothing we don't know but just to show we weren't imagining it, other people saw it to

        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        As a Costa owner, I hope he is flagged all week and we don't hear the verdict about Aguero before Tuesday. Don't want everyone jumping on the Costa wagon that easily.

        • 11 Years

        Big shift in template in 2 gw's πŸ˜‰

        Kun Lukaku Coutinho ---> Kane Costa and Siggy

        Are you happy with the changes or is it boring as everyone will jump on the later

        1. MTPockets
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Think Ibra might trump kane

          • Odikostar
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            My kun and walcott to haz and costa transfers before gw 12 looking to pay off now, so happy

          What happened to Pedro?

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

          I'm feeling a formation change to 4-3-3 next week.

          1. some witty pun
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            for city, right? i thought they played quite well today, just poor finishing

        4. rivercityransom
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          this spurs game is going to be such a letdown, probably a 0-0 or 1-0 at best

        5. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Seldom do I make the right choices but I shipped aguero for kane for a hit this week.hope kane can bag a couple now .
