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.

    Amalfitano fits really well with the Hammers ... becoming an option at 5m?

    Commentator doing a Bemba there "Downing injured 😯 "

      Villa is fresh in the memory

  7. JedJez
    • 14 Years

    Have City done anything, are they looking any good?

  8. Crash
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    City remind me of united from last year. No end product, too circumspect, living dangerously.

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      No end product ?

      🙄

      Spurs fan here that thinks differently

  9. Would an idiot do that?
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Surely you can sense the sarcasm in the "Aguero (c) fail" posts

    1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      its not clearcut though as there are plenty stupid enough to genuinely post that

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        this,

        and the sarcastic ones stopped being funny a long time ago

      2. Would an idiot do that?
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        True

    2. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      people turn bitter when it isn't all going their way

  10. DRY PEANUT
    • 11 Years

    Kolorov will come on at HT

    1. JedJez
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Hope not - my rival has him

      1. DRY PEANUT
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Pellegrini likes to bring him on for pace and crosses

  11. Muffinz
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    City should switch to 4-2-3-1 to get some presence in midfield imo.

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      yup Dzeko off, Milner or Fernando on

  12. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Valencia and Sakho are great in the air considering their height, and with Downing, Amalfitano, Cresswell and Jenkinson, West Ham have a couple of great crossers down both sides.

  13. Give The Todd Some Love
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Fernando's playing?! 😯

    1. VougieDipond
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      he's on the pitch. Playing might be stretching it a bit

    2. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Which one?

  14. Think Tank

    Toure a spectator.

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Hope he paid for his ticket.

  15. DRY PEANUT
    • 11 Years

    Kompany YC

  16. Give The Todd Some Love
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Kompany yc

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      that was not a foul, let alone a yc

  17. BRONALDINHO
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    It's starting to be too hard for me to ignore West Ham's attacking. There's a sentence I never thought I would write...

  18. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    That's a great tackle! Why is that a yellow?

  19. Obi Wan Elokobi
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Who still always presses 405 for sky sports news and 401 for sky sports 1.

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years

      Lol me 🙂

    2. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years

      Damn mods just got rid of my joke 🙁

  20. Hibbo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    The overrated Kompany getting roasted at half way by anyone with an ounce of pace.

    1. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      :/

  21. Del Griffith
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    West Ham are actually playing well and could easily get a draw here if not win it

  22. MJ6987
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Brandish.

    That's a word you only hear these days in relation to football (re yellow and red cards)

    Like "adjudged" as well (re offside)

    1. My name is an echo
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Nice

  23. Mikeharbrw
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Don't rate Kompany.

  24. Wouter
    • 11 Years

    Oooohhhhhh Amalfitano great ball

  25. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    City clearly getting outnumbered in midfield here

  26. Bielsa’s bucket
    • 14 Years

    Danny Shittu just scored for Millwall...

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

  27. The Finnisher
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Won't mind having Di Maria vs this City defence...

  28. Ludo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Classic Allardyce free kick routine, lovely stuff.

  29. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Come on Sakho!

  30. Give The Todd Some Love
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    City must have been taking lessons from Liverpool in how to defend like shite
