With the fall-out from Sergio Aguero’s injury reverberating around the Fantasy Football community, it’s time to distract ourselves from our return to the drawing board and resume the Gameweek action.

A pair of Premier League encounters await, with events beginning at the Boleyn Ground as Swansea City clash with West Ham. A battle of two in-form teams harbouring top six ambitions, the Hammers go into this match with just one defeat in the last eight, while the Swans’ have also suffered just one setback in their previous six league outings. Fantasy managers will of course be hoping that the 50% owned Gylfi Sigurdsson can help rescue the Gameweek with midfield returns, while Wilfried Bony will likely be auditioning as the potential Sergio Aguero replacement, once the City’s striker’s prognosis is confirmed.

Later today, Villa meet Leicester City in a midlands derby that, while bereft of Fantasy talent, could yet prove of interest with Christian Benteke now presenting an option up top. The Belgian returned to the scoresheet to earn the three points at Palace in midweek and, should he also put the Foxes to the sword, there’s little doubt that Benteke will be another name considered in the light of Aguero’s injury scare.

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

    How many points do you think it's worth spending before using your WC? 12+?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 days ago

      16

    2. Berbalove
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 days ago

      There's not a fixed answer to that question. Sometime -8 can warrant a WC, sometimes -20 can be warranted without using your WC.

  13. Berbalove
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 days ago

    Ashley Williams - that's not how you defend...

  14. Bøwstring The Carp
