Gameweek 26 rolls on with an “unfashionable” evening encounter that pairs Watford with West Ham at Vicarage Road.

From a Fantasy perspective, this serves as a scouting mission of the Hammers assets ahead of potential investment for the Gameweek 28 blanks.

Slaven Bilic’s side are just one of eight teams that are currently guaranteed to play over that weekend and, as such, are elevated in our thinking ahead of this encounter.

Andy Carroll is again an absentee as he continues to struggle with a groin complaint, leaving Michail Antonio to lead the attack for the visitors. He’ll be under the microscope, along with Robert Snodgrass who tucks into the number 10 role against the Hornets.

For the home side, Fantasy interest is limited given their forthcoming blank, although promising fixtures to follow has us monitoring the continued form of Troy Deeney and M’Baye Niang.

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

    Kun price is starting to rise, he -37.5 and rising at 1% an hour at the moment according to Fantasy Football Fix, Won't rise before Wednesday's game at that rate.

    They have Sterling rising at 2% an hour, so he would rise if that rate continues.

      He won't always keep on rising at 1% every hour until wednesday, thats just the current rate

        True

    Ibra BOU looks so nice but the man has to go - for a hit. Welcome Sergio (TC) Aguero.

      When are you making the transfer?

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Late in the week of course. 🙂

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Seriously ?

  3. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Owners of Ibra (BOU) - Lukaku (tot) - Costa (whm)

    Will you bring Aguero in? Who will you sell ?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I don't have Ibra out of those 3 but i'm thinking about getting rid of Costa to bring in Kun

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Costa has a decent fixture. Has to be Lukaku or nobody.

    2. Scratch
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Tough one, glad I have Kane giving me an easy decision

    3. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I have all three.

      Brought Costa in for a hit, removing him for Carroll, and captained him.

      Plan is on track to remove Costa for Kun.

    4. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I own that front 3 and Ibra's leaving. More because I don't have the funds to upgrade either of the other 2 lol.

    5. rocky7st
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Depends on your GW28 decision. Costa with that in mine

  4. b✪mber
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I need early thoughts for this quest.

    The Road to Aguero (Only if City have a DGW):

    Foster Pick
    Alonso Coleman Holeb Evans Yoshi
    Haz Mane Firmino Antonio Mirallas
    Ibra Kaku Rondon

    1FT; 0M ITB

    a) Ibra + Mirallas > Kun + Carroll (-4)
    b) Ibra + Antonio > Kun + Carroll (-4)
    c) Kaku + Mirallas + Antonio > Kun + Snod + Carroll (-8)
    d) don't go down that road
    e) find another way

  5. Ha.
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Alli, Antonio, Phillips

    Who to to ditch for Siggy?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Antonio, I'm hoping West Ham to get relegated now

    2. F4L

      Flips

  6. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    There's nothing nicer than your defender with 15 points under his name.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Alonso 21 disagrees.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I knew that someone would say that. I just talking about today .

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What a bout a defender with 21 points under his name?

    3. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      16 points

    4. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Oh yes!

    5. Uncle Gamst
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Your defence averaging 6.5?

  7. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Thought I read an article lately discussing permutations of the future potential DGWs - 37 etc. But I can't find now. Anyone got a link ?

  8. Vinyl78LP
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Nearest ML chaser Triple Captained Lukaku, just 18 points to my six for him is actually a bit of a result with dgw's incoming.

  9. Zlat-man
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Last weeks biggest q was :
    Alexis> Mane?

    Seems this weeks biggest q is goin to be:
    Kaku> kun > kaku
    or
    Kane/costa> kun?

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kaku to troll and score at Spurs 🙂

  10. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Wanting to bring in Sterling for a -4 but not sure who to get rid of in my midfield, surely has to be one of the Spurs players?

    A) Antonio
    B) Mane
    C) Eriksen
    D) Alli

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Well obvs one of the Spurs players, seen as though the other options play in GW28.

      I've also got to drop one fo Alli and Eriksen, and would drop Alli.

  11. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Having a crap GW only 34 points from 9 players. Anyone worse than myself

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Over 3 million people

    2. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      the average will be 24.. i think there are

  12. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Nyom,capoue,Antonio,Philips grand total of 5 points. No wonder I bench most of them.

  13. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Going to be a smart alec and ditch Lukaku for TC Aguero, and NOT get him back for GW28.

    Phillips says hi from my GW27 bench :/

  14. KUNingas
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Siggy or Sterling in this week?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling this week Siggy next week

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Get siggy straight if you want to save a transfer

  15. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Jaku Grant
    Walker Alonso Evans Coleman Amat
    Alli Eriksen Deroon Phillips Mane
    Ibra Costa Lukaku
    1ft 0.3itb
    How do I get in Kun provided city progress?

    Was thinking Alli+Eriksen+Costa out for Sterling+Siggy+Kun (-8)

    Then Sterling+Amat out for gw28mid+Mawson (-4) for gw28 giving me 9 players

    Thoughts?

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I would keep a Spurs midfielder and not get Sterling so just a -4

      1. Whats the Mata?
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cant afford it
        Downgrading alli and Eriksen to siggy and sterling funds Costa to Kun
        Or I'll have to go without kun
        Or upgrade Ibra instead of Costa

        1. JAC THE CAT
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          So Costa and Spurs mid -->> Aguero and Siggy not possible?

          1. Whats the Mata?
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Nope

            1. JAC THE CAT
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              The -8 could work and will be much more fun 🙂

              1. Whats the Mata?
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Yep hopefully

  16. weeurquahrt
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Gunna go with kun ,sterling, and crouch for the double.if your no in you canny win.also not to worried about the following week, only lukaku and a couple of Liverpool players are crucial, probably have 7players for the game week ,plenty when the average will be around 30 35

  17. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    1. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kun

    2. Whats the Mata?

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years

        1. Whats the Mata?
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years

            1. Whats the Mata?
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Alli

    3. GreatCarragherReef
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      potentially neither, dont really fancy any gw28 strikers apart from lukaku

    4. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Aguero, need to money ITB for greater flexibility.

    5. DNML
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Aguero for Lukaku

    6. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      kun.
      Still unsure if I will get him however. May just skip it.

    7. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      None will start Lukaku. Had planned to have Carroll too but ditched this week for Costa.

    8. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      At the moment .1 short of holgate, Stanislas, lukaku to stones, sterling & kun.
      Crap GW this week with only 9 players in the end. So if City DGW just going to go for it and enjoy the ride.

  18. Sess!
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Might just get aguero only for DGW and TC him

        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers guys. Thinking of ditching Costa + Kane > Kun + Llorente as it's the only way I can afford Kun!

  22. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Haz/Costa -> Sterling/aguero for a -4? Then TC Kun, and do Kun to Kane in 29

    1. Lucky_Z
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      And benching for GW28?

      1. F4L

  23. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Who to get rid for Aguero ?

    A) Kane (EVE)

    B) Rondon (CPL) exact cash

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I would want to keep Kane. Depends how badly you need the extra cash

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Looks like you planned to do Rondon > Aguero anyway if you have the exact cash...

    All this TC Aguero love, Pep being Pep could just start to Kelechi to rain on your parade.

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      don't see it personally. They need the points now

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      No way would I TC Kun. I'm scared enough transferring him in. Don't trust Pep in the slightest

    3. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Captain is enough for me

  26. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    With the red card...when is Antonio likely to fall in price? can I survive till Wednesday morning?

  27. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

  28. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    1. AndyCook
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Phillips didn't play, so no matter!

      • Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Heh yeah after what happened last week.

        People say its only a few points, but those points are precious.

      • HurriKane
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        never owned him 😉

        have been on evans train before and now on brunt. he just keep on punishing us non owners

    2. AndyCook
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Is it better to have Sanchez or Hazard for next week?

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Always Sanchez, esp when Haz is away from home

        2. JAC THE CAT
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Sanchez

        3. HurriKane
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Hazard

          liv perform well and tighten up against big teams

      • We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Will wait until wednesday to make a final decision on the Firmino to sterling transfer but Kun is a no brainer for me, dgw or gw27 + 28, may TC if dgw. Do Jesus + Alli to Aguero and King sound like sound moves?

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Keep firm surely. sounds decent the first two, however King could become the next Stanislas
