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.

    Didn't give them chance to maneouvre the bus into the parking space...that's plan A out of the window!

  11. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years

    That is the worst possible goal fpl wise for me

  12. The Bandit
    • 15 Years

    This is going to be a great game 🙂

  13. Sims

    No DDG

    No Kane.

    Perfect

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      for now.....

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years

      Why is no Kane perfect after 5 minutes?

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        I meant perfect goal

  14. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 11 months ago

    Got Kane, Son and Jones. Surely it's gonna be my way, yeah? Alli assist and Eriksen goal.

  15. Bubz
    • 12 Years

    A plus side, I don't have to worry about keeping a clean sheet for the next 89 minutes and 50 seconds.

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      This

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Not a plus side

    3. jdp219
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Similarly, I don't have to worry about my H2H opponent getting a CS from Jones.

    4. Brosstan

      I benched DDG for Elliot. It was worth a shot.

    This spurs united match is WOW!

  20. Sun Jihai

    Took out Murray and Firmino this week - FFS!

  21. Rik Waller
    • 8 Years

    Feels like a repeat of the Arsenal United game. So open

    Every game might as well just be 10-10 now

      Bring back the AOA chip.

  23. banskt

    Took out Eriksen this week for Mkhitaryan. ðŸ™

  24. Sims
    • 9 Years

    Sanchez deserves better than united

  25. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    So Gru swaps one London bench for another .. Waste of a transfer

  26. mad_beer ✅

    Eriksen out for -4 was a good plan then. ðŸ™

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

      Tell me it wasn't for Mahrez! 🙂

      1. mad_beer ✅
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Walcott. ðŸ˜

      Did the same.. Need haz and Ryan to outscore Cortouis and Eriksen by 4 !

    Spurs goal shouldn't have stood.

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Not at all biased

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        Kane was clearly infringing in Utd's half pre-kick off. I'm neither a Spurs or Utd fan. I only have Lingard from the two teams (DDG benched).

        1. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Dumb, nitpicking complaint.

    2. MTPockets
        7 years, 11 months ago

        oh well

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Kane stole a few yards at the kickoff

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        *Clutching at straws

        1. Zenith UK
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 11 months ago

          Not really. Had Kane not gained that two yard advantage at kick off he wouldn't have been in position to flick the header on. Simple.

    4. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      Tot Sanchez diving tackle like a madman

    5. A Team Of James McCleans
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 11 months ago

      8 point hit taken, 8 players playing, 1 of them is Jack Cork

      1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        That's not really how to play the game

      2. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 11 months ago

        BenchBoost played... 3 non-starting defenders
