With Sergio Aguero delivering for the 21% who handed him the armband, it’s now over to Gameweek 13’s supporting cast to keep pace.

Liverpool’s assets will lead the chase. Jurgen Klopp’s side take on Sunderland at Anfield with much expected of both Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino. They are part of an unchanged Reds XI and are backed by 11% and 4% of FPL managers with the armband.

Elsewhere, Fantasy interest is somewhat limited in this afternoon’s other three matches.

West Brom go in search of a third successive victory as they drop in on Hull City at the KCOM Stadium, while Gylfi Sigurdsson auditions for a role in our festive line-ups as he and Swansea City host Crystal Palace at the Liberty Stadium.

Finally, Leicester City’s fading Fantasy assets take on Middlesbrough at the King Power, as both Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy bid to revive domestic form and perhaps blink back on our radars once again.

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

    I want to make a public apology to the people who are involved in choosing the watchlist.

    http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2016/11/15/the-watchlist-updated-gameweek-12-the-defenders/?hc_page=2#hc_comment_14450996

    In THIS specific scenario, fixtures clearly overcame form.

    (I also ended up choosing McCauley, so I'm quite happy I was wrong 🙂 )

      I just saw the assister, I swapped Stanislas for Phillips last night. Laughing home to the bank

      Good team

    2. makaveli123

      Do you have to scream?

    3. Eskimooo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      People that gloat....

    4. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      They also said it was too loud, it still is

    5. Dušan Citizen

      WHERE IS SIGGY?

      1. VFORVANDETA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        siggy next week for lukaku

        1. Rains of Castamere
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Good luck with that

  4. Viper
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I want to do Lukaku -> Kane next week. It means I need to sell Coutinho (more than likely) for an 8.2m mid. I already own Siggy.

    Any suggestions while we're at HT?

    1. matiakez
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Mata?

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Mmmm, that is an interesting suggestion.

        Thanks

    2. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years

      Yaya

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Another interesting one, thanks

    3. Ephurion
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm considering Erikson or Alli (both 8.1). With Kane and their attacking defenders coming back they might be valuable assets.

  5. liiusions
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    There's no one I want in place of Coutinho, already got Firmino Hazard and Siggy

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Don't sell him them 🙂

    2. FPL_Sponge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      In the same position. Am thinking maybe Walcott or Pedro. Watch MOTD tonight and see who stands out!

  6. Bazzalona
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Ok Coutinho as captain is bad, but if he IS crocked at least it opens up my transfer options

    1. BabyB
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Painful isn't it 🙁

  7. rooneysfirsttouch
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    The Liverpool hype is dead, watch them sink now 😉

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Would be prayers answered that.

  8. Frank Black
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Fuchs has been one of my worst transfers this season.

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Same. Can't believe his returns against West Brom, Watford and Boro.

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Been my worst by a mile. Iv owned him twice this season as I started with him. I despise him

      1. Frank Black
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        My plan was to sell him for Bertrand after this GW but with Coutinho and Lallana injured i'm going to need to take care of the midfield.

    3. SAY SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Bought him in before his goal. Not much since 🙁

    4. matiakez
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm with you on that.

    5. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I feel like punching my screen when I see his stupid name

    6. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Same

  9. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    The very time I go for a different captain choice. Godamnit Coutinho!

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Different to what?

  10. Taz Maniac
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinho as captain. Had Phillips as captain first..... Thanks for the advice 🙁

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Be your own man biatch

      1. Taz Maniac
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Daydreaming " FLYING WITH UR ROBE ON" in space.
        What super powers do you possess???

        Thanks for the advice.

    2. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I switched from Firmino to Couts last night

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

      Embarrassing

  11. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Morgan + Lukaku + Coutinho -> Alonso + Kane + Sigurdsson (-4)
    Solid moves?

  12. Numb
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Siggy rising tonight?

    1. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      With the Coutinho injury (and his goal obviously) he'll go close

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, that's what I'm thinking

  13. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Can't catch a break in my mini-league at all

    Leader - Aguero (c) + Negredo
    2nd - Mahrez (c)
    3rd - Owns McAuley
    4th - Aguero (c) + Zaha
    Me - Coutinho (c)

  14. GreenArrows
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinhio to Firmino or wait for news? To early to react?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No, do it right now just incase...

    2. JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Relax

  15. Alan The Llama
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    That Klopp photo beginning to look prophetic.

  16. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I am thinking about Couthiho and Williams to Mahrez and Barragan for -4

  17. El-Kloppico
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Bolasie + Coutinho >> Siggy + Mata ??

  18. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Knew I'd regret not bringing in McCauley for JEvans last wk

  19. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinho Anichebe to Kane Zaha seems reasonable?

    1. Kitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      very good - an improvement on both counts

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah thanks 😀

  20. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    https://youtu.be/YwQr5gEGGaQ my gw so far

    1. Bampot Co.
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Haha same.

  21. Moose™
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Ah. Match made in heaven.

    Just enough funds to do Coutinho + Lukaku --> Siggy + Kane. Do it now before price rises takes effect?

    1. liiusions
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      At least let Kane play first

      1. Moose™
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Kane price not rising? I will do Coutinho to Siggy first then.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      that's what I'm doing before they rise tonight

    3. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      FT?

      1. Moose™
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Only 1FT. Brought McAuley and Hazard this week. B)

    4. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Tonight

    5. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Wait to make sure no injuries

      1. Moose™
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah. Thinking to do Cout to Siggy first. But then, Lukaku price set to fall tho. Ah, hard decisions.

  22. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinho Lukaku ➡ Siggy Kane -4

    Would be rude not to

    1. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Already done it

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Hahaha

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Going to do it for free tonight

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Show off

    3. Moose™
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Haha. Do it now? Just enough to do it. Feel itchy to save it. Lukaku price set to fall. Might be short 0.1 then. Decisions decisions.

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I can wait for a day but seems Siggy going up and Lukaku down

        Sigh

  23. Swan - Villa Proud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Lukaku+Couts->Kane + Siggy for free. Easy peasy. Would only heed to take a hit if Heaton is injured bad

  24. Romford Pele - Don't w…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Williams --> Alonso
    Coutinho --> Sigurdsson
    Lukaku --> Kane

    4pt hit. Worth it? Need to do it today though for price rising reasons. Too much of a risk?

    1. KUNingas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Do it

  25. JIM BOB
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So everyone will own Siggy and Kane by next week it seems.

  26. CC22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Already contemplating Sanchez, Coutinho & Gundogan out for Hazard, Walcott & Siggy for a -4! Thoughts?

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Sanchez nah man...

      Who else is in there?

      1. CC22
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Feel like I need Hazard and Sanchez is the only way to fund it?

  27. Viper
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Hopefully Coutinho does rise tonight still so I can squeeze an extra 0.1m out of him first.

    Likely?

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      lol

  28. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Three consecutive posts there with the same transfer.

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      It's going to be a very popular set of moves this week I feel.

  29. twoplustwo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Luka to drop like a stone...

    1. KingNidge

          the ankle is a joint, it does move. Doesn't mean it is broken.
