The Gameweek concludes at Villa Park with the home side scrambling for points to maintain their Premier League status, whilst visitors City are equally desperate to revive the pulse of an ailing title race.

The likes of Pablo Zabaleta, David Silva and Christian Benteke are on show under the lights, with a nasty surprise amongst the team news for Sergio Aguero owners. Despite that, Fantasy managers look to fitting end to a Gameweek that has delivered some big scores thus far. Our Monday night Dugout Discussion chatroom is open to visitors wishing to vent in real-time while the minutes in the Midlands tick by.

The headline team news is that Aguero misses out having sustained a knee injury in training over the weekend: Carlos Tevez is drafted in to replace his compatriot in the 4-5-1. Vincent Kompany misses out again, while Gareth Barry is fit to return to the City bench. As for Villa, they are able to name an unchanged lineup from the side that lost out at the Emirates.

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

    Dzeko can't even get in the starting 11 when Aguero is out.

    I'm just looking at that young partnership of Clark and Baker. Any striker worth his salt would look forward to facing them.

    Has anyone transferred out Begovic?

    I bought him at 4.5 and can sell him for 5.1 for De Gea, but my back up is Turnbull who will never play.

    What would you guys do? Obvious choice is swap Turnbull, but I'll have 0.8m less to spend elsewhere, bit of a waste if Begovic is sitting on the bench right?

    Not sure how to feel about Aguero being out. On the one hand it's great that a key player is missing from a number of people's team (particularly the ones that took out RVP for him) but on the other hand I dread to think how many people have Aguero (c) with Suarez (vc) (particularly the ones that took out RVP for him)

    Two questions:

    1. Who is the best 1 week striker punt (will sell him for RvP the week after): Benteke, Lukaku or Cisse

    2. Who is the best 1 weeks cheap striker punt for next week (5,4m or less) and future 8th attacking player and bench fold. Weimann, Le Fondre or someone else?

    Thanks.
