After Spurs edged past West Ham at the London Stadium, there are six 3pm encounters to keep up ticking over this Saturday.

All eyes turn to the Etihad as Sergio Aguero and co welcome basement-dwellers Crystal Palace.

Transferred in by over 784,000 FPL managers last week, the Argentine has been captained by 18.5% – the second top pick for the Gameweek.

Gabriel Jesus owners are left frustrated, though, as he drops to the bench for the first time this season.

Aguero is still a less popular armband option than Romelu Lukaku (26.9%), who is again the number one choice for Man United’s trip to Southampton.

The Belgian has scored in both away appearances for the Red Devils, though has returned no more than six points on each occasion.

Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata is another big-hitter option. Up against Stoke’s patched up defence, the Spaniard looks to improve upon his run of three goals and two assists – just 3.2% have backed him with the armband.

Meanwhile, we’re looking for signs of form from both Everton and Swansea this weekend as they prepare for a super run of fixtures.

The Toffees entertain Bournemouth at Goodison, while Swansea welcome Watford to the Liberty.

And Burnley’s Chris Wood has another audition as our third striker option as Huddersfield make their way to Turf Moor. The summer signing has bagged three goals in four outings across all competitions since arriving from Leeds United.

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

      I think alonso has to go with so many expensive strikers performing. I made an error picking him on my WC for sure. He killed me last season also. Hate him almost because of fpl lol

  7. Cok3y5murf

    Diesel said he would recommend selling Lukaku for Aguero this week but not Mkhi for Silva because you need United 'coverage'.

    Rip 😆

  8. Shirokov(c)
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Silva seems fairly esse

      ntial

    2. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't say essential but he's looking good

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

    Kun and Kane should have had more points 🙁

    1. Delph & Safety
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yes probably but at least they both scored. Looks very promising for upcoming GWS.

  10. olidooley
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    50 with Elliot, Kolasinac, Ritchie and Firmino to go.
    That's average Im guessing...a little bit above possibly

    1. Podge
      • 15 Years

      Very similar

  13. Sims

    Alonso to kola already paid off

  14. nkhoughton
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Best option

    A) Morata
    B) Lukaku
    C) Keep Jesus

    1. MikeDuff
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      B

    2. Shirokov(c)
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A

    3. olidooley
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Thats my issue too. Has to be Morata no?

      1. nkhoughton
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Can do lukaku this week for Palace then Morata for Palace haha

        1. jam
          • 16 Years

          Think that might be a good plan

  15. seewhyaxe

    1. Ode

  16. MikeDuff
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    65 (if Silva gets 2) with Maguire Firmino Dunk Elliott to play. Happy man

  17. Business Cat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any idea what the Man City baps will end up as?

    Sane on 3, Silva & Aguero both tied for 2 on 42. Sterling on 1 @ 38.

    Will Sterling steal the 2 pts with winning goal?

    1. Prison Mike
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I sure hope not! Really could do with the Aguero 2 bonus points

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Did he score the winning goal?

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sane scored the winning goal.

      Sane 3
      Silva 2
      Kun 1

      1. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Oh, sweet. I thought Sterling scored first 😎

        More baps for me then!

    4. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sane had the winning goal.

  18. Prison Mike
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Kane Lukaku Aguero Morata

    Who to leave out when I WC in GW8?

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Lukaku

      1. mir
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Lukaku but have miki

    2. Prison Mike
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      What about if he gets a brace/hattrick against palace...

    3. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Kane

      1. Prison Mike
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        That's what I'm thinking just more expansive when the others are keeping up

      2. SLUMVILLAGE1
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Kane here, front 3 has to be Kun-Morate-Kaku

    4. akashan99
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Kaku

  19. akashan99
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    74 with bap thanks to morata(c). With Salah, kola and hemed left, hope to get atleast 85

  20. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Crazy when you do Eriksen and Morata to Silva and Kun and still feel okay about it, wanted to keep Morata but Silva and Firmino > Ritchie and Morata

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I did exactly this...feel a bit meh about it.

      I hope keeping Firmino over Morata doesn't go horribly wrong...

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Same, I think Firmino will do well

  21. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Lukaku or Morata?

  22. Halftime
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Almost disappointed Richarlson scored, was going to transfer him out, not sure now.

  23. Saint Tim
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    How did De Bruyne not getting any points in a 5-0 win, ugh?! KDB just not worth the additional funds -> Silva?

  24. BRONALDINHO
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Duck Konte, DUCK Morata, DUCK Aguero, DUCK Alonso and DUCK Pep, DUCKING DUCKERS

  25. Toby Lerone
    • 10 Years

    Shameful score brag. 87(-8) post baps with Elliott, Ritchie, Knockaert and Hegazi to go yet.

    1. hogree
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Rahhh. Morata Aguero Kane Azpi?

      1. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        No Azpi. But P. Jones and Zanka chipping in at the back.

  28. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Why was Alonso subbed?

    1. Own Goal
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Because he was on a yellow card, and was a lucky not to get another.
      He had lost it.

  29. F4L
