After Spurs edged past Everton thanks to two more goals from Harry Kane at the Lane, it’s now time for Sunday’s main event.

Manchester City travel to Wearside in the first of their double Gameweek fixtures, with Pep Guardiola’s in-form outfit subject to huge Fantasy Premier League investment over the last few days.

Snapped by over 377,000 FPL managers, Sergio Aguero was the most sought-after asset prior to yesterday’s deadline after racking up four goals and two assists in his last pair of appearances across all competitions.

Surprisingly second to Zlatan Ibrahimovic in terms of overall armband backers for Gameweek 27, Aguero has, however, been triple captained by a substantial 159,000+ FPL managers, with City also set to entertain Stoke on Wednesday evening.

With a goal or assist in eight of his last ten league outings, Raheem Sterling acquired over 338,000 new owners last week – over 16,000 have wielded their triple captain chip on the winger.

Four goals and three assists in his last seven starts across all competitions has Leroy Sane shaping up as a differential, with the summer signing sitting in just 3% of squads, but Kevin De Bruyne’s owners are left disappointed as the Belgian surprisingly drops to the bench for the first match of double-header. As many as 6,937 FPL managers have played their Triple Captain chip on De Bruyne for Gameweek 27.

    Tbh, Sterling was unlucky his assist deflected, it wouldn't have found Kun otherwise

    1. Rainer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

  7. Richd
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    A triple captain in hand after 1 goal, is worth two in the fantasy bush.

  8. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero's last two home games - both braces.

    He'll go one better on Wednesday!

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      touch wood

  9. EDEN THE MAN

    9 years, 6 months ago

    Sunderland were fighting for their lives and ManCity took their feet of the gas.

    Stoke(H) is and ideal second fixture, they don't have much to play for.

    Ideal for me: All I need is a 3-0

    2 Aguero goals( 2 Sane Assists)
    1 Sane Goals( 1 Aguero assist)

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      just make sure SAS start first

  10. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    so many awful crosses when Sergio was free at the near post. Arghhh

    1. Rainer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      KDB back on Wednesday, we wont need crosses.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        here's hoping. Get Yaya out plz

        1. AverageJoe
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Out of the premier league you mean*

    2. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Yep. Service for him was atrocious.

  11. bring_on _the_fantasy

    Finding it funny that everyone assumes it will be the FA Cup Game that Kun will be rested.

    He played both hudderfield games - shows how seriously Pep is taking the FA Cup!

    Wouldnt be at all suprised if Kun starts from the bench against stoke......KDB or Nacho up front.

    1. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Indeed. He's played strong team throughout the FA cup.

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      imo he'll play everything. His fitness looks fine

    3. John t penguin
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't be surprised if aguero starts both

  12. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Happy with triple (c) Aguero. One of my rivals also tripled him up and he's 90pts behind me. That'll do nicely.

  13. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    58 with 6 to go, it could be worse.

  14. Pep says
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    3 goals would be a decent return for TC

    1. Tansey
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      you reckon

  15. Dušan Citizen
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    52 (-4, pre bonus) with Costa, Alonso, Kun tc and Sterling to go is pretty bad.

    1. Hobolicious
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      46 (-4, pre bonus) with Alonso, Kun (TC) and Sterling to go is pretty bad.

      1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        40 (-4, pre bonus) with Big Andy, Alonso, Kun (TC) and Sterling to go is pretty bad.

    2. Speédy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      47(-8) with Alonso,kun(TC) ,sterling ,grant and sane to go is bad

  16. The Tinkerman
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    56 (-4) with effectively 6 players to go

    Alonso, Grant, Sterling, Aguero(TC)

    Not great, but plenty of room for improvement.

  17. Zlat-man
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Score chk.
    72 with
    Haz Alon Sterl Kun Kun Kun to go

  18. John t penguin
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Stones, sterling, aguero 19
    Ali, Lukaku, Cahill 18+8=26

    But having aguero cap meant I didn't cap Ibra so gain of 8 points there
    Glass half full I think

  19. AndyCook
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Defoe to Llorente worth a hit?

  20. PvA
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Score check post BAPs?

    67 (-4)

    Aguero (TC) and Luiz left

    1. Dreams

    2. Ridcully
      • 9 Years

      If Agüero gets one bonus point:

      70 (-4) with Alonso, Agüero(TC) and Sterling left.

    3. The Tinkerman
      • 11 Years

      Giant green arrow coming, smashing those Top 10 k fools!

    I will have to do Sane > Siggy tonight as have only the exact amount and can't afford a Siggy rise

  24. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    It was either All > sterling

    Or Lallana > Sane

    Thank You lallana for being so rubbish these last few weeks

  25. The Tinkerman
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    I have a feeling having 9 men next week will be a bigger green arrow than Kun TC...

    1. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Could be.

  26. AA33
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero should have scored more. Some terrible crosses from Sagna, Sterling, Clichy prevented him from scoring more. Also Sane should have passed to Aguero instead of going by himself, in second half (not the goal).

    All in all, I am a proud SAS owner 😎

  27. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Have a bad feeling sane will be rested for Stoke

    Sterling going off before 80 means he will start I think. Nolito to get a game too imo

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Why couldn't Sane just play 80 against Stoke?

      Anyway. Sterling always gets subbed.

  28. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Currently Ibra, Kun, Llorente..what to do? Should I keep Kun and do Ibra for Lukaku or what?

  29. The Left Duke #3
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero TC so far is already more than I got for my TC last year (f u Lukaku) so should be happy really.....but selling Alli and Lukaku (who continues to annoy) is hurting when my rival has Kane and Alli πŸ™

  30. bring_on _the_fantasy
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Why did Pep play kun for the 90??

    2-0 up with nacho on the bench who literally scores everytime he plays?
