Our usual post-Gameweek members’ article is up next as we check in on some of the standout performers across the previous weekend’s ten matches.

There’s cause for optimism in north London after Spurs and Arsenal hit a combined nine goals, while our new expected goals data offers plenty to ponder at Manchester City.

Elsewhere, Man United and Chelsea’s Belgian big-hitters have struggled to convince as Watford’s Samba star continues to catch the eye.

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

    Whats the best thing for us now? 3:0 City first half with Kun breaking the record? That should give us some clue in the way subs are made in 2nd half.

    Lol, who am I kidding, its Pep. Delph at 9 for the weekend.

    Aguero to come off for a rest as soon as they are 2 goals ahead and both Aguero and Jesus will start at the weekend. You heard it first here.

    1. HNI
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Think you correct as Jesus got his rest last week

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      If you say so.

  3. CABAYE4

    So after blindly punting on Lukaku to Aguero last night, I now have 3 City attacking players who are starting in the League cup...

    Pep; you’re brilliant but stuff of FPL nightmares

    1. HNI
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Luka to Kun was blind...Luk will play 100% all matches and only chel match looks blank in next 6

    Plan to make Kola to Daniels and then to invest the money in upgrading Sterling to Salah?

    Elliot
    Walker Jones Simpson Kola
    Sterling Atsu Eriksen
    Kane Kaku Jesus

    Subs: Fabianski, Carroll, Chalobah, Mbemba

    Can't recall it specifically, but I'm sure Sane only starts and plays >60 minutes at home. Still fancy Sterling to start Saturday. Less so Aguero..

    1. potatoace

      that happened a lot last season yes. fingers crossed

      Good for him to have proper rest to assist Vardy this weekend.

      1. Galza

        Don’t mind that if he gets one himself...

    Aguero / Jesus

    The one who plays the whole 90 tonight wont start this weekend

    1. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      If Jesus is benched 2 PL games in a row he's gone for good.

  10. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pep's just getting Aguero back up to speed. Nothing to see here.

    1. Deano
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      For Napoli

  11. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    If Pep sub Kun early i believe he will start at the weekend.Napoli-Man city is on Wednesday.I don't think that Kun will not play for 8 days.

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Aguero owner?

    2. Pieterke30
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah see above

      Jesus Aguero... the one who plays less mins today starts on Saturday

      Can see Aguero subbed off after scoring one goal and playing 60 tonight. Which imo would mean only one of jesus or sterling starts at west brom

    Can anybody give me a link to the Manchester United and Manchester City bench?

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    good or bad news for aguero to get the record tonight?

    he gets the record and pep gives him a reward by resting him at the weekend?

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      75/60

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

      cant see him being rested against Brom

    3. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      There are 4 days till West brom..then 4 days till napoli after that. Kun is needing minutes. Very good chance he starts both. Don't panic folks. Tonight tells us nothing. I'd be more worried as a Jesus owner

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        lol what? Why would you be more worried as a Jesus owner? He was just rested against Burnley.

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I kind of agree with Pumpkinhead. I think Pep got over his ego-trip and realized that Kun is the far superior and clinical striker, while Jesus can play out wide and be duplicative with Sterling and Sane and B. Silva. Will Kun get the occasional rest? Sure. But I think he's more nailed than Jesus at this point.

          1. Yozzer
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Yer. Kun only been rotated once hasn't he.

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

            this. Plus Kun is more physical than Jesus, and therefore Pep will most likely start him away at the Hawthorns

            1. BananaNose Maldonado
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              Well, yeah, I'm not willing to go that far 🙂

              Pep is still unpredictable.

              But I guess if I had to own one of them long-term, Kun seems the safer bet to me, even if the occasional rest is something owners will have to deal with.

              1. Freddo
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

                All today means it's that it's now impossible to C Aguero this weekend.

        2. Yozzer
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yes but Jesus is the one that keeps getting reduced mins. Kun is back from injury and pep says he needs minutes to get his flow back. He won't get them on bench. Im.sure he wants him in flow for napoli. Who knows though. Just saying id rather have kun than Jesus at mo

        3. Freddo
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          It's not a bad shout tbh, Jesus start today, rest WBA, start Napoli.

          Pep is hard to second guess but he may want the younger more workmanlike legs away at Napoli.

          Remember, this is the man who took Sterling off early last week and then rested him.

          As a Sterling owner, I'm worried, Bernardo seems to be getting regular mins now, might just make him Salah and thank him for two weeks ago (but not last week)

    4. JustPark
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nah. He'll be taken off early to go mad(again) against West Brom.

    5. red forever
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He’s going to score 4 goals at the weekend

    6. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Makes no difference

  14. FC Hakkebøf
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    As a Aguero, Jesus and Sterling owner I am not too found on this formation..

    Especially because I got sterling in for miki for a hit last week.. (fail of epic proportions)..
    On the other hand Pep is a mystery. Might play them all three next week

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

      He really is!I captained Sterling....(High 5 to massive fail)!

      WBA are struggling at the back, Man city could bang in 5 again.....but who plays?!!

  15. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Wolves are a good side and Pep will want to win this game. You're all acting like it'll be a walk over tonight for City; it wont be

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      3-0 or something

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

        with this line up, yes. But they couldn't just start the youngsters and expect to win

    2. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      4-0

    3. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Wolves changed their whole team though.

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

        ah. Havent actually seen the Wolves line up. If that is the case then at least Sergio will be subbed off early

    4. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      8 0 ?

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

    You just cant second guess pep.
    All teams are resting their main strikers in this cup yet pep plays both of his!

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He just wants Kun to break the record and then they will come off.

  17. iwearspeedos
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    On a WC and would love an opinion...

    Pope Elliot
    Azpi Otamendi Moreno Ward Mariappa
    Silva Saleh Gross Richarlison Zaha
    Kane Aguero Abraham

    Thinking to keep balance and have a playing bench so I can rotate and not worry so much about rotation.
    Or is it better to go for another big hitter?

    1. Shultan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I have a similar team set up.
      Except have TC as 5th mid & sterling over grosz.
      I find having 3 big hitters up front ruins team balance

      1. iwearspeedos
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        thanks. me too. would like moreno but feel i have to sacrifice saleh or silva. i had TC in but don't feel like it's a loss.
        cheers for responding

  18. martyhan
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    On wildcard

    Would you go with Kun or lukaku?
    Have no other united cover and the city cover is D Silva

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Lacazette

      1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Do you have kane?

      I'd go with Kun.

    3. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'd go with Kun. And if you get frightened about GWs 12 and 13 for United, you can always do the hokey-cokey and get Lukaku back in for them.

  19. ooooo
    • 8 Years

    Ryan
    Azpi Dunk Otamendi Ward

      1. ooooo

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      How's your season going?

      1. Pinky Blinders
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I think I'm about to go on tilt Tony, I've loaded up with triple CHE and triple MC and 2 MU defenders on a WC. This run through New Years is going to be either amazing or amazingly bad. Either way, I'll probably start playing for rank in January if I have any time between diaper changing duty.

        1. Johqvist
          • 10 Years

  23. Sims
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    for those who think kun starts this weekend, who misses out out of jesus/sterling/sane?

    all wont start

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

      Jesus

    2. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Pep should just play all of them always right? 😛 Screw defenders

    3. drughi
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      sterling most likely

  24. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I find this week the hardest to choose a captain since the season started

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

      Aye, there's a little Brazilian pocking his head round the corner

      1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Jesus? 😉

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

          😉 Phil

          1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Haha I've found he's a but unpredictable to be a captain but then I captained Jesus last week so more fool me

            (currently on Salah, might captain Kane because my ML rivals only have Kane or Lukaku as captain options)

        2. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Great choice but I don't have him

  25. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I reckon Wenger plays FPL and Pep obviously doesn't. You can tell by the teams they put out

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nah Wenger just doesnt have a striker trying to break a scoring record.

    2. potatoace

    Bench-

    Myhill/Tarroll/Schindler/Mbemba
    1.4 ITB 1 FT

      No one can definitively tell you who is going to start. If it's for free then it's your gamble. If it's for a hit then still only your choice, just a bigger gamble

      1. ooooo
        • 8 Years

        For free

        1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Still anyone's guess I'm afraid! I own Jesus but not planning to upgrade - more likely to ship out to Morata once he's bucked his ideas up and then maybe double in midfield

          1. Midlands Saint73
            • 8 Years

            My plan also in couple of weeks.

  28. L S P
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Would you do it?

    Jesus/Lukaku/Sterling->Aguero/Lacazette/Salah for -4

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just lukaku to Lacazette for this gameweek

    2. Dannyb
      • 8 Years

      Probably
