Saturday treats us to seven more Gameweek 2 matches, with Stoke entertaining Man City in the early lunchtime kick-off.

Sergio Aguero will be hoping to continue the momentum that’s already harvested six goals in his first four outings under Pep Guardiola.

Having seen Zlatan Ibrahimovic score twice and rack up 13 points last night, though, the Argentine has plenty to do to vindicate his place at the top of this week’s captain poll.

City warmed up for this one with a 5-0 hammering of Steaua Bucharest on Tuesday evening, and their manager has been reluctant to make changes – Pep Guardiola makes just one alteration from that match in Romania, with Nolito replaced by Jesus Navas on the flank.

For the Potters, Shay Given once again deputises for the stricken Jack Butland, who remains sidelined with an ankle injury sustained in training prior to Gameweek 1.

Mark Hughes makes one enforced change for the hosts, with the injured Xherdan Shaqiri repalced by Joe Allen. Bojan is expected to switch to the right flank to allow Allen to tuck in behind Mame Biram Diouf.

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

    Five minutes in, safe to say Kun (C) fail.

    1. Jazz!
      10 years, 2 months ago

      This. Lol at Kun captainers.

      1. Somalion
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Might delete my team.

  8. Bielsa's Bucket
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Yea, maybe removing Firm before seeing how his match panned out was a bad move. But I comfort myself when comparing his fixtures to Lamela, plus the price rises of both him and Ibra.

    1. Les Bleus
      10 years, 2 months ago

      FPL is won on points not team value I'm afraid

      1. Bielsa's Bucket
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Firmino ain't scoring many points 😉

    2. thunder_mike
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I did similar, kept Firmino and swapped out Alli for Lamela

  9. Eden Azzzar
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I'm transferring Kun out he sucks

    1. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  15. Jafooli

    Sterling misses Aguero assist, useless feckeer...

    1. KOLASINA(C)
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Aguero bad pass

    2. Puyol Pants Up
      10 years, 2 months ago

      The ball was behind Sterling. It was Agueros fault.

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 2 months ago

        😉

    3. Jazz!
      10 years, 2 months ago

      😆

    4. ★Kuntheman★
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Honestly, more like Aguero missed Sterling in the box. Poor cross. Great run.

      1. Jafooli
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Sterling should've got a foot on it.

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Scorpion kick that in, Raheem! 🙂

  16. Syd.
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Brilliant from Aguero

    Pity about the cross but suppose it was Sterling who was in the middle so probably would've ended up missing it

  17. Stats Don\'t Lie
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Kun not scored yet?
    Guess I should transfer him out.

  18. Ninja Fury

        10 years, 2 months ago

      2. THE Wild Rover
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Trying to follow on live feed as not able to watch the game, it's pathetic

      3. George Sillett
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Agree. Come to expect it from some.

    3. Still Unsure
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Surely mods can do something to rid the site of ridiculous posts like this?!

  25. Jafooli
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Being a Stoke player playing in that wind every second week must be a bit boring.

  26. ★Kuntheman★
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Lol at Raheem haters

    1. Somalion
      10 years, 2 months ago

      That was a fantastic goal.

      1. Mull
        10 years, 2 months ago

        As a Sterling owner who's watching the game I still got excited reading this.

        1. Somalion
          10 years, 2 months ago

          😆 Apologies

      2. ★Kuntheman★
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Goals don't necessarily translate to improvement

  27. devils advocate
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone think Hazard is likely to rise overnight? He's at 91% to rise I think.

    1. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Not unless something happens today.

    2. Bubz
      10 years, 2 months ago

      After his brace today, definitely

    3. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If he scores he will prob rise 100%

    4. Kane Toads
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I don't think so..he has around 21.9% ownership.

  28. The Royal Robin
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Unlucky from Sterling. Liking Citeh's away kit btw.

  29. Oooof
