We take a break from the incessant transfer speculation to address the small matter of seven Premier League matches, bristling with a cast of major Fantasy assets.

Sergio Aguero is undoubtedly the leading man. Signed by over 310,000 managers as the top transfer target for Gameweek 25, he goes into his clash with West Bromwich Albion wearing the armband for 960,000, including fifty of the top 100 managers.

Fresh from a hat-trick and 17-point haul against Newcastle United last time out, Aguero will be expected to return and at least keep pace with Mohamed Salah’s 8-point score from Liverpool’s win at Huddersfield.

Harry Kane remains the most captained player in the Gameweek – with “ghostship” teams no doubt playing a part in that statistic.

Even so, Kane is a key figure as always, as he faces off with a Manchester United defence that have earned shut-outs in their previous four Gameweeks. Kane has just a single goal in six league outings against the Red Devils, though that strike arrived in the corresponding fixture last season.

Alexis Sanchez earns his United debut in opposition and, as expected, it’s Juan Mata who makes way in Jose Mourinho’s line-up. It remains to be seen if Sanchez is retained on the left flank, with Anthony Martial shifting to the right. Alternatively, the Chilean could deployed in the No 10 role, though Jesse Lingard starts and seems likely to be favoured in that position.

Meanwhile, at Stamford Bridge, Eden Hazard is yet another heavy-hitter in action. He claims just 128,000 Gameweek armbands and looks set to lead the attack for Chelsea against Bournemouth, with Pedro and Ross Barkley providing support flanking the Belgian.

Paul Lambert will go in search of a successive three points when Stoke City take on Watford at the bet 365 Stadium. From a Fantasy perspective, Shaqiri is the key asset on show. The Swiss playmaker claimed 145,000 new owners as the fourth most bought player ahead of Gameweek 25

Riyad Mahrez proved even more popular prior to Tuesday’s deadline, attracting over 154,000 new owners but, as expected, he is omitted from the Foxes line-up amid “intense” interest and numerous failed bids from Manchester City over the last 24-hours.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      every chance he'll score to make up for all those minus points. scores 1 every 3 years, and none in last 2. due surely

  5. Rik Waller
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

  6. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

  7. Puzzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Jones rc would be the icing om the cake

  8. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    All players in the premier-league will score more points than Jones 🙂

  11. Delima
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    was switching between Jones in or Duffy. I chose for Jones in and Duffy first on the bench. And Ayew second.

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Probably made the wrong call

  12. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Come on raheem! bag a few lad

  13. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I think that it's only sensible that Mou takes Jones off at half-time because he might get another YC. (No schadenfreude here 😀 - Christensen owner)

    1. Unbowed Unbent N'Golo
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Own both!

  14. the snazzy viking

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

      The wagon has already left the station. If you're quick you can hang on to the back.

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years

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

          Cheers lad. I thought you might have gone for him yourself what with all the other options dwindling.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Class FPL player - buying him straight away. For Son or Lingard still TBD

    3. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      More than enough space to hop in

  17. Ghost Gooner

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Arsenal habe to play as a good team for him to do that. Not likely to happen after 3 goals are already past Arsenal.

  18. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Smalling and Jones are first choice I think.

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

        thank you

  21. Bubz

    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Well.... that Gundo sub is now blocking Gomez 6points from the bench, so you better do something good ilkay!!!!

  23. *sigh*
    • 14 Years

    Christensen four more points than Jones

  24. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Jones just paid my hit off. Thanks.

    Shame I brought in shite.

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Haha. You sell him on a -4?
      Funny repay but still counts

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I meant him getting negative points for people will be akin to them getting a -4 thus slightly balancing out my hit.

  25. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Pretty silly of Mourinho to play 4 attacking mids with little defensive skill against a top side like Spurs.

    1. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      True. And Martial doesn't look effective on the right

  26. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years

    Son struggling. Fpl horror show

  27. FPL ZB

    Need wildcard team ideas! Show me your best? Struggling for defence nobody seems to have a good run coming up except for Mawson and maybe Maguire.
