After the late penalty drama at Turf Moor, we now turn to the John Smith’s Stadium as Huddersfield entertain Man City in the final fixture of Gameweek 13.

The surprise news is that Sergio Aguero is handed his first away start since Gameweek 5 – where he racked up 20 points at Watford.

Sold by over 195,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers last week, the Argentine is one of four Man City players in the top eight captains for Gameweek 13.

Aguero is backed by 8%, with Leroy Sane (4.1%), Gabriel Jesus (3.7%) and Kevin De Bruyne (3.5%) also high in the armband rankings.

But Jesus’ 15% owners are left frustrated as he sits on the bench, whereas Sane – in his eighth successive league start under Pep Guardiola – goes in search of his sixth set of double-digits in 2017/18.

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

        Fully accept it was MY decision to transfer sterling out and I'm dealing with it thanks. But like everyone, we try read the information given to us to best move forward with our fantasy teams it just means pep has an art when it comes to his team news . Lesson learnt

    2. Foozeball
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Took out Aguero for Morata for the same reason. Hoping Morata justifies it on Wednesday. This game is really making me hate City -_-

    3. Regin
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I have stuck with sterling since i bought him in gw8. This is a lesson not to do any sideways transfers.
      my friend in ML sold sterling & aguero & put in pogba & morata. 2 sideways transfers which cost him 20 pts,

      1. Regin
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        word of advice- dont choose a man city attacker. select 1 or even 2 of sane, sterling, d silva or if u wish kdb & stick till injury happens

    4. Teror
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Me too. Only I already had Sane so switched Sterling for Pogba. That's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes I guess!

    5. Begbie.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I think the Sane v Sterling debate has been way too one sided. Everyone is on Sane but Sterling's contributing just as much, scores more goals and is about a million cheaper. No brainer for me.

      1. SC not pearls before swine
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        It's funny, because about a month ago I think it was the other way around. Sane had only started 2 games in a row and Sterling was on fire. Both excellent picks, but I don't see how you pay a full million more for Sane if you don't already have him.

        1. Jason Bourne
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          Security of starts was a big factor to most.

          1. That Fantasy Guy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 4 months ago

            This

      2. That Fantasy Guy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah this is why I had sterling too. But the bench threaten Vs a potential blow out against Huddersfield scared me to be honest. As I say lesson learnt

  5. Foozeball
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Transfer out Jones for Christensen a good move?

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I think so yes

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah but the ban for Niasse was for successful deception of match officials, as they got something out of it.

    2. dark91
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      That is a completely different case than Niasse
      If so then Fernandinho would be banned today as well

    Fellow Sane owners, just be happy the ref saw it so that he doesn't get a retrospective ban

    1. Holmes

      Lost my H2H

      Would take a ban over YC 😮

      1. Foozeball

        Lewis Dunk's "own goal" cost me my h2h :/

  7. slamdunk

    Charlie Austin now a budget option? Not the best fixtures tho and if he is even nailed.

    sigh just cant decide what to do

    Pope --- Elliot
    Daniels • Duffy • Dann --- Moreno • Kiko
    Salah • Sane • Richarlison • Zaha --- RLC
    Kane • Firmino • Kaku

    A: Dann + Kaku >> Otamendi + morata
    B: Dann + Zaha + Kaku >> Otamendi + Fab + morata (-4)
    C: Dann + Zaha + Kaku >> Alonso + Gross + Morata (-4)
    D: Zaha + Lukaku >> Sterling/Fab + Morata

    how many have sold sterling & put sane? I have stuck with sterling since i bought him in gw8. This is a lesson not to do any sideways transfers.
    my friend in ML sold sterling & aguero & put in pogba & morata. 2 sideways transfers which cost him 20 pts,

    1. Teror
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I did Sterling > Pogba this week. Didn't pay off but still had a decent week with 57 points. Up to 7K. What2do

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
        8 years, 4 months ago

        There'll be examples of the opposite working out too, all depends on the players

      • Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Neither of those moves are "sideways" unless sideways means "getting in similar price players"

      • slamdunk
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I kept sterling..I believe even with rotation he will outscore pogba this season

      • Foozeball
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        "Sideways transfers" sometimes work depending on the situation 😉
        I did that with Stanislas to King last season right before King's brace against Everton despite being told it was a sideways transfer. The rest is history 🙂

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      Sane just about covers Silva!

      1. Jafooli

        Careful now 😀

    4. mr messi

      Best striker up to 6.4m?

      1. Scout Pics
        • 8 Years

        Niasse

      2. Respect My Authoritah
        • 12 Years

        Tricky. Wilson probably

      3. MiLK2018
        • 8 Years

        Abraham, Wilson, or Niasse

      4. slamdunk

        Hopefully austin nails a place

        1. mr messi
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          Hopefully, think he could do well if he got more minutes.

    5. cescpistols1
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      2FT, 0.5 ITB. Need to make atleast 1 change to avoid losing a FT. What change would you make?

      Fabianski Elliot
      Azpi Ward Daniels Femenia Mbemba
      Hazard D.Silva Salah Gross RLC
      Kane Lukaku Quaner

      1. Mr Q
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Mbemba to a playing player...double up on Burnley for a few weeks looks decent

      2. suddenorgan
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Lukaku -> Morata

      3. Regin
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        this shows u r a casual player. Quaner & Mbemba?

    6. Deece
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Worth a -8? Have exact funds:

      Lukaku -> McBurnie
      McTomminay -> Hazard
      Foster -> Courtois

      Would leave me with:

      Courtois
      Mustafi Mee Daniels
      Hazard Salah Silva Sterling RLC
      Kane Morata

      Elliot Naughton Mbemba McBurnie

    7. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Did Sterling play?

      1. NOMONEY
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        nope

    8. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Glad I was .2 m short for Sterling to Sane for -4. Keeping Sterling now albeit fully expect benching mid week.

    9. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Aguero - 73pts for 11.7m
      Jesus - 66 pts for 10.5m

      Would rather have Jesus than Aguero with those returns.

      1. 824545201
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        He has 10% more points for roughly 10% more price. Any one of them is a good option, always a risk for captaincy though.

      2. Ron_Swanson
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Less returns better?

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          £1.2m can be spent wisely, Lets you get Azpi / Alonso or Hazard etc.

          1. 824545201
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 4 months ago

            Aguero has pens though and CIty will continue to get lots of pens.
            By the way, i have Azpi, Hazard, Salah, Sterling, Kane and Aguero all in my team, it's not impossible.

      3. SC not pearls before swine
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Aguero had the rib injury that put him out though. Jesus has been fit pretty much all year. But really the midfielders are even cheaper and have even more points.

    10. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Az with Otem & Sane captained. He said it would all be downhill

    11. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      80 points after bonus, Otamendi, D. Silva, and Sane flopped. I'm so ecstatic i could jerk off right now. If only Ward didn't lose his CS in the last seconds, it would have been a perfect gameweek.

    12. NOMONEY
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      aguero and sterling surely undroppable now, gonna stick with them for forseeable future

      1. My Name Is Pepu
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Aguero will be dropped against Southampton.

      2. EspanYOLO
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I’m just making sure I have a good bench and playing them every week.

        Seems to be paying off

      3. the axolotl
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        undroppable? lol

    13. EspanYOLO
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      70 points Inc bonus this week.

      1.4m to 15k OR in 3 weeks.

      Punts are actually paying off this season!

      1. 42towels
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Nicely done. That's huge.

    14. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Realized what a fool I was to sell Hazard and Aguero to fund Kane. Time to swallow my pride and get Hazard straight back tonight.

      Get the fak outta my team you waste of space Harry. Was doing so much better without him all these weeks.

    15. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Time to Sell Sane ?

      Only 1 assist in last 3 and might get rested for next gw.

      1. SC not pearls before swine
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Anybody for one of the top sides could get rested over the next couple gameweeks. If Sane continues to play the most minutes in the Manchester City front 3 he stays for me. Guess I could see the argument if you don't have him at a discount though.

    16. trequartista
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Luiz > Christensen/Mustafi
      Silva > Hazard
      Rashford > Niasse

      for -4. Should I pull the trigger?

      1. mr messi
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I think so

    17. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      My biggest dilemma next weekend is going to be choosing between Alonso or Azpilicueta.

      1. Give The Todd Some Love
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Who else can play LWB for Chelsea?

      2. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I'd just read hot topics and then flip a coin if that doesn't help (Azpi owner but got him when cheaper than Alonso)

      3. InvertedWinger
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Azpi

      4. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Get both

    18. JS27
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Determined to get Hazard in, means I need to get rid of one of Sterling and Sane. Thoughts on which to go for? Stats favour Sterling, security of starts Sane...

    19. LIARS POKER
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Think the lesson here for Sterling/Sane owners is just to hold long term and the points will come. Easier said than done but just got to be calm when your player blanks and the other hauls

    20. Dr. DOOM
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Niasse or DCL. Who would you go for?

      1. Give The Todd Some Love
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Niasse

    21. Scotty B
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Repost sorry: any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

      Elliot
      Bellerin Otamendi Ake Alonso
      Salah KDB Sane Ritchie
      Lukaku Firmino

      Fabianski Carroll Abraham Tuanzabe
      0 ITB & 1 FT

      Which option is better?
      A Abraham > DCL
      B Ritchie > EMCM
      C Carroll > RLC
      D KDB & Firmino > Pogba & Morata -4
      E Ritchie & Lukaku > RLC & Kane-4

    22. Ibracadabra

      Someone talk me out of bringing Klavan in as my 5th defender.

      Only 4.3m; excellent fixtures; Lovren injury prone and/or potentially still injured, and perhaps a start or two anyway around Xmas rotation.

        Will be rotated like nobody's business, impossible to guess when coming in

          I agree; if Lovren was ruled out I would 100% make the move, but don't know Lovren injury status.
