Dugout Discussion – Burnley vs Man City

The Gameweek begins under the rain at Turf Moor, as Burnley host champions-elect Manchester City.

For Fantasy managers, this immediately puts key assets and – for many – the Gameweek captain – under scrutiny.

Sergio Aguero takes on the Clarets on the back of a six-point return in midweek and a 17-point blast against Newcastle last weekend.

The Argentine has boosted his ownership by 295,000 managers ahead of the early kick-off, having scored both City goals in the corresponding fixture last season.

Kevin De Bruyne was rested in that match but starts today as he bids to extend his compelling form that has delivered a goal and five assists in his last six Gameweeks. However, he has produced just a single goal and assist in his last six on the road.

Raheem Sterling’s away record – with two goals and three assists in that same six-match spell – is stronger, though he boasts just a single goal in his last five Gameweeks.

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

    Oh, that's what Aguero looks like

  11. SirStevieG

    Did Kun smoke some weed before the game? Seems off the pace.

    1. Clintymints
      • 15 Years

      Early kick offs

  12. Clintymints
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    It came back at some pace in fairness

    Kdb will score from a shot outside the box today

  13. Sims

    So glad I'm pretty much selling Aguero after Liecester game. So annoying...especially when Kane does the same.

    Coupled with Alonso team is very lopsided.

  16. L'Aeroplanino

    double saves for Pope

  17. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years

    Woohoo, more saves Pope

    Just can’t get pass this feeling that sterling would be a random player if he was not playing in such a strong team.

    1. Sims
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Yup, he's just like alli only as good as others can make him

    2. FFSbet.com

      Agree,never got him this season and he destroyed me.

  19. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️

    Kun off at half time.

  20. KLOPPTOMANIA
    • 14 Years

    Think I bottled it capping Kane, wish I'd stick with Wilson

    1. Kanga roo
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      What's the score in the spurs match?

    2. Steinburg FC
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      there shall be goals in that game, i capped Salah but if Kane scores a hatty and we win i'll be fine with that 😉

  21. Patch

      • 8 Years

      So you don't give up then? 😉

        Only so much you can do when the FPL gods are against you.

        I know, 3 more months of injuries, rotation havoc, next level bad luck and bs to go.

    Cork YC

  25. Zilla

    lmao walker

  26. TOBY1

    KDB getting wrestled on the counter again.

  27. Football Heaven

    6 years, 4 months ago

    Gundogan is one of if not the most underrated player in the pl. I also think if Bernardo silva was playing for the whole season people would rate him very highly as well

    1. TOBY1
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      1000%

    2. rnrd
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Totally agree

    3. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Gundogan is a great player. He's unlucky that he has been injured and is competing with KDB and D Silva in peak of their powers.

  28. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Is Aguero on the pitch? Penalty looks his only hope

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      He hasn't been great for weeks. Last gasp goal midweek and his hattrick was flukey. A penalty and the merest touch off his hair

  29. FPL Mentor
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Will sterling produce this game you think?

    1. TOBY1
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    2. Differentiator
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I ruddy hope so

    3. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Now that I've bought him, of course not

    4. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Yep. Looked pretty good.

  30. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Almost worse than diving, pulling someone back.

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      ?

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Agreed. Hack job.

    3. Business Cat

      Cork was "butchering" KDB's arm by pulling him back 😉
