Dugout Discussion – Huddersfield vs Man City

26 November 2017 4228 comments

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

    After one week of madness when I bought Scott Dann, I now need to replace him - or play Naughton against Chelsea.

    Any thoughts on a replacement? 4.7 or under. Other defenders are Azpi, Mee, Naughton and Mbemba.

    Burnley double-up?
    Dunk/Duffy?
    Kiko?
    Francis?
    Moreno/Gomez?

    Looking for someone medium-term (and of year).

    Thanks.

      I feel your pain 🙁

      Gomez would probably be my choice.

      (You didn't ask, but I already did Kun+TCarrol -> Niasse+Hazard [2FT], so he'll have to ride the bench for a week. Such a waste of a FT.)

      Huh. Would have been better to play a £5.5m mid from a newly promoted team at Jose’s Old Trafford, than a £9.0m mid playing for the runaway league leaders against a promoted team.
