Attentions now turn to the Etihad where Pep Guardiola makes his Premier League bow.

David Moyes’ Sunderland are the guests and potential party poopers, although the odds do seem stacked against them.

The Black Cats are in transition under their new manager, while City boast such attacking riches there can be no doubt that they head into today’s clash as overwhelming favourites.

Expectant Fantasy managers will be looking to Sergio Aguero to capitlise – the Argentine heads into the teatime kick-off as the most popular captain choice in the Gameweek and with over 40% ownership.

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

    Aguerooooooo

    Lol @ Gray owners

    1. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I have Aguero and Gray. What's your point?

    2. YankeeDoodleDandy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      What's the relationship? Aguero is double his price

    3. Bungle Machine
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Most Gray owners have Agucap.

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        This.

    4. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I own both.

    5. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      What does Gray have to do with anything

    6. Rath
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Both are different price brackets. Is there even a co-relation?

    7. Typo
      • 12 Years

      Think e trolled you all chaps

  2. BB-8
    • 10 Years

    AGUEROOOOOO! As if there was ever any doubt

  3. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years

    (whisper it quietly) Sterling looks good

    1. YankeeDoodleDandy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      That was a cheeky little cut back

    2. Bungle Machine
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      The hair?

  4. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Hatty incoming

  5. Son is Rising
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    City's passing looks slick - the Pep effect

    1. Stevee10001
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      The Sunderland effect

      1. Son is Rising
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Haha true, they look pretty ragged

  6. Mark-O
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    If Kun scores a hatty, those triple captainers are going to laugh at normal Kun captainers

    1. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      But has anyone actually TC Aguero?

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Quite a lot will have.

    2. YankeeDoodleDandy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Link the team or it didn't happen...

    3. Debauchy
      • 13 Years

    4. Podge

    5. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

  8. The Fantastic Mr Fox
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I'm not asking for much. Just limit Aguero to one 🙂

  9. BB-8
    • 10 Years

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 13 Years

      Strling

  10. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Good call by Granville about Sterling

    I did toy with the idea of getting him in but I was 0.5m short

  11. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    As serial Aguero captainer - the type of clown that gets him back straght in after an injury - that was a sweet start.

    1. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Definitely wouldn't refer to that as clownish behaviour!

  12. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Does anyone here not own Aguero?

    1. El Patron

      New coding. Next week

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Ah right, I wondered if it might be something like that. Thanks.

    2. VS10_
      • 10 Years

      Read the text on the right side.

    3. MTPockets
      9 years, 11 months ago

      there's a note about it on frontpage

    4. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Maybe the new site layout has caused difficulties crawling teams.

      Maybe he isn't doing it though, I don't know.

  14. GinjaWhinja
    • 17 Years

    Oh god, now I am turning off my computer in fear. Why didn't I captain Sergio?

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years

      insanity ?

      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Heh, I was smarting at taking out Capoue and Ramirez this morning, but the other decision i made was to switch the armband from Vardy to Kun. Whew!

      1. Velocity
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

      I'm on 53 without Aguero BAPS.

      😀

    3. Debauchy

      pfftt

    4. RoysCallerAnne

      9 years, 11 months ago

      Including BPs?

  16. Jay_
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone else feeling lightweight with only Aguero for City attack?

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      A tad. Picked up KDB on WC

    2. YankeeDoodleDandy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      No, need to see what team Pep settles on. He could easily bring Sane in to start next game

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        KDB and Silva are the only ones that can play anywhere in Pep's liking, so I went with KDB.

        1. YankeeDoodleDandy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Looks to be the safest offensive pick after Kun

    3. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      There is just too much competition for those midfield berths at the moment - will need to wait and see I think

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Feel like it's also a wait and get left behind though

        1. YankeeDoodleDandy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Nah. Ownership is super low for their mids

    4. Ohhh Shola Ameobi
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nope, got KDB as well 😉

    5. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      No because they'll be rotated (Champs League)

  17. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Called it before, RW Sterling is a different player. Would pick him up if it wasn't for Sane rotation.

  18. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    WE LOVE YOU PEP!

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Team is playing so much more fluid. Defense is still questionable though.

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yes the defence is still prone to too many silly errors

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          More so than before if you ask me.

      2. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        It will be sorted.

        Kompany and Ota to come back.

  19. Delboy.

    Hello everyone who thought Aguero wasn't worth his pricetag

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Noone i think

    2. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      we are all veterans enough to know that we cannot doubt kun regardless of pricetag

    3. Your Man With The Hair
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      That's probably an empty room you're saying hello to...

    Bonus points reshuffle. Nothing for Tadic owners now.

    Kone showing he can play out from the back to attract Pep's attention.

    1. TorresMagic™

        Obviously proof Of Half-Life 3

  25. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years

    Sterling's haircut makes the difference

    OMG

    1. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years

      I forgot to take out the pizza from the oven.

  27. Mark-O
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Speechless that Sagna started ahead of Zaba

    I had Sagna initially but took Stones instead.. 😆

    1. Typo
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Well damn, thats not bad you know.

  28. Springbank
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Is this Aguero pen supposed to cheer me up?! Not really. Mahrez,Redmond,Lamela, Ibra locked all week only to change last night to Hazard,Tadic,Townsend and Vardy (and I wasnt under the influence of alcohol!) Add to that Evans, Capoue,Amat on the bench and late goals at Burnley and Boro..

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      harsh

  29. CostaCoffee
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone else here have Capoue and Amat on the bench 🙁

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Villa Ronka does and me.

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Are you Villa Ronke?

    2. jradic
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Yep. Even worse: Capoue/Amat/Kingsley

    3. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Me, benchers anonymous.

    4. MTPockets
      9 years, 11 months ago

      yep

    5. Wurstmuncher
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      yup and I swapped Hennessey in for Forster last minute.

    6. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Capoue Kingsley Evans for me on the bench.

  30. Cecil The Lion
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Doosra is such a joke of a player. Don't know why he gets so much attention.

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      coz he's a top lad?

      1. Cecil The Lion
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Ah, I'm not doubting that. Just crap at FPL

    2. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      That's a bit harsh. Everyone chooses to play their own game.
      And he possesses a lot of West Ham-information.

      1. Cecil The Lion
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Again. I don't doubt his valuable insight regarding West Ham. That's not what I'm talking about though
