Fantasy managers who put faith in Sergio Aguero (£11.4m) could be in for one of their most memorable Gameweeks.

The Manchester City forward has defied ‘Pep Roulette’ to start both matches of Double Gameweek 25, named on the team sheet to face Everton on Wednesday night.

The start comes after scoring 17 points in Sunday afternoon’s 3-1 win over Arsenal, in which Aguero scored a hat-trick.

Once again, we should expect a great divide between managers, depending which Manchester City options they backed.

Leroy Sané (£9.8m) comes back into the side after remaining an unused substitute at the weekend, but Raheem Sterling (£11.3m) travels in the opposite direction.

Kevin de Bruyne (£9.7m) is also named among the subsitutes.

Anyone invested in Aymeric Laporte (£5.9m) will be encouraged to know that he has been deployed at left-back.

However, Pep Guardiola is not the only Premier League manager wreaking havoc with Fantasy teams, as Everton have also rotated for this fixture.

The Toffees two most popular Fantasy midfielders Richarlison (£6.8m) and Gylfi Sigurdsson (£7.4m) both find themselves on the bench as Marco Silva goes for a 4-3-3 system.

Everton XI: Pickford; Digne, Zouma, Keane, Kenny; Davies, Gueye, A Gomes; Bernard, Calvert-Lewin, Walcott.

Man City XI: Ederson; Laporte, Otamendi, Stones, Walker; D Silva, Gundogan, Fernandinho; Sané, Aguero, B Silva.

    @Mods Are you going to add the words "Pep" and "Sane" to the swear filter?

    1. Don Kloppeone

      Lol. Made me chuckle

      When you type Aguero or Laporte it should do the water splash emoji

    Thought my GW couldn't get any worse 🙁
    41 points. 80k~160k Goodbye LMS!

    Rich + Sane have to go right?

    Fabianski.
    Digne, Doherty, Holebas.
    Pogba, Salah, Rich, Sané.
    Firmino, Auba, Rashford.
    Hamer, Bednarek, Camarasa, AWB.
    2ft, 0.6m ITB

    1. Sane/Rich/Firmino -> Son/Mane/Jimenez (-4).
    2. Rich/Sane-> Felipe/Son.
    3. Rich/ Sane-> Son/Jota.
    4. Sane-> Son for now.

    1. Don Kloppeone
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      A looking tasty

    2. Gabistuta
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      A worth the hit

    3. windowview
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I'd go for option 1 personally

  4. Don Kloppeone
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Need a premium defender out as part of my moves tonight:

    A) Laporte
    B) Luiz

    Out to

    1) Kolasinac
    2) Koscielny
    3) Pereira

    Pick one from each group

    Thanks!

    Currently thinking Laporte to Kola but his 20pts is clouding my decision making judgement!!

    1. Gabistuta
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Luiz to Pereira

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Hmm out of interest why Luiz over Laporte?

        I love the Pereira pick but hesitation is that he’d need benching for first couple whereas ARS have the fixtures now

    2. Teror
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Coin toss between Luiz and Laporte but I'd keep Luiz. And bring in Kolasinac. Apparently Pereira isn't playing as advanced as he was

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks mate

        Tbh that was my plan before this evening so still leaning that way

  5. Gabistuta
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Hey guys what are your thoughts on this plan? 2FT

    Sane, Kun > Anderson, Auba +3mil

    Then next week upgrade Puncheon (5th mid) with the change to Gross/Maddison/Jota etc)

    Cheers

  6. windowview
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    What should be my priority here? I really want Rich out of my team but feel like the logical move is Agüero + Jesús -> Auba + Lacazette.

    Fabianski

    Van Dijk - Doherty - Laporte

    Pogba - Mountinho - Salah - Richarlison

    Aguero - Jesus - Rashford

    Bench: WB - Digne - Snodgrass

    1. SuperKante
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      What about;

      Agureo + Jesus + Rich to Auba + Jimenez + Son for +4 hit

      just an idea tho lol.

  7. Brosstan
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Actually got a mini green arrow after Bednarek comes on even with a -12 hit. But still, Sane you bellend, it could have been so much better.

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Another win for the casuals.

      1. Brosstan
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Auba -> Kun, Digne -> Laporte, Martial -> Son 😀

        Hazard -> Sane (TC) 🙁

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

    I am more then happy to do Sane+Siggy to Son+Pogba (-4).
    DGW disaster

  9. Totti
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    this gameweek i had 2 FT and i took a hit for -4

    thanks to laporte and aguero captain 🙂
    and hard luck for siggy
    would say now it payed off

    1. AndyCook
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Sigurdsson for a minus 4 is very odd unless you needed the money

  10. Brosstan
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Some small bug with livefpl it seems. Bonus points not added for the last game.

    1. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Fixed now, thanks!

  11. columbo
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Is Siggy likely to be benched again vs Watford do we reckon? How long is a piece of string I know..

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      No imo

      1. columbo
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Ta

  12. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Who to take out for Son? Sane or Sterling?

    1. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Sane on that performance, but there's zero logic to Pep's future picks

      1. AndyCook
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Can’t pick anyone in a blank. Depends on what the money can do surely

  13. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Did anyone relevant captain Sane?

    1. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Saint Ville

  14. Forza Papac

    Got to be happy with 99 but do feel a bit disappointed not to hit the ton. Richardson's fault.

    1. fr3d
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Kieran?

      1. shirtless

        Lol dam Fire tablet!

        Richarlison no show!

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      James?

  16. Drexl Spivey
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero to Lacazette then, GW26?

    1. Richd
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Eww no.

      Auba maybe but Laca can’t be trusted. Stung me early season

      1. Richd
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Subbed at HT. that may have also been Hudds

      2. Drexl Spivey
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Consistency though, assuming everyone's captaining Salah.

        1. Richd
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          It could end up being another Sane style score

          If you wanna take a punt, or need a punt sure. I’d rather just keep Kun if you can’t get Auba

          1. Drexl Spivey
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            I hear you.

  17. fr3d
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Digne -> Taa for free?

    1. A19
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Wait for the presser but yeah if TAA fit good move

  18. A19
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    A) Laca & Hazard
    B) Auba & Sané or Mané?

    1. Garth Marenghi
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      B, mane

  19. SheBangsTheDrums
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Are these moves crazy for -8?

    Out: Haz, Sterling, Rash

    In: Pog, Son & Auba

    All chips in tact

    1. Richd
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah that’s dumb

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Pretty crazy

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Rash out for a hit is nuts

    4. YEAH PITCH!
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Crazy

    5. AndyCook
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Probably wouldn’t be canning Rashford which means you can leave Aubameyang and swap someone cheaper for Son and Pogba

  20. Garth Marenghi
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    -107.6 on fpl stats already lol

    1. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      feel the rage

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Its idiotic

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I bought at 9.5 so can wait 1 drop before selling

  21. the Penman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    So, in the end, I was as well to captain Digne, who was suspended for one game and played Man City in the other. *sheug*

    1. Richd
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      You may as well have got a cat to pick your captain

  22. The Mighty Whites
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Best mid max 8.0? Thinking F. Anderson

  23. Under my Cucurella
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Do Tottenham have any potential upcoming blanks?

      Possibly GW31 if Palace beat Doncaster in cup next weekend

      1. Under my Cucurella
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah just seen! So my next question is - is Sane > Mane better than Sane>Son because Liverpool are guaranteed to play (already have Salah)

        1. YEAH PITCH!
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          I'm in the same boat. Son all day long.

  24. Bees4Lyf
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    This train wreck of a week is finally over. The ML leader has obtained his 16point lead on me again. Onwards and upwards, need to climb back up the overall rank too!

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

      16pts is nothing

      1. Bees4Lyf
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah I’m not worried just need to be smart with my moves

  25. JRO093
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    So I guess I am selling sane instead of Haz?

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

      Why?

      1. JRO093
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Cuz he was dropped and then only played 59 mins despite no Mendy and no Mahrez...

  26. jia you
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Danilo + Sane + Hazard to Doherty + Mane + Son (-4)
    If this hit doesnt pay off over the next two GWs I will def quit FLP 😉

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      But will you quit FPL? 😉

      Not a bad GW for you, all things considered, I guess slightly disappointing TC but not a disaster.

      1. jia you
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Happy with the TC, not easy to get more than that with it. Thought I had a good GW until I seen the massive scores on here without Kun or TC! Going Danilo over Laporte was a shocker though!

        1. Pierce34
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          That was unlucky, could've had a triple-digit score even without Aguero!

          As for me, I'm so relieved - before the deadline I was 50/50 between Jota and Aguero, or Jimenez and Sane. That's a 32 point difference right there!

        2. jia you
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          well done on Kun btw, proved massive in the end!

          1. Pierce34
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            I was convinced I made the wrong move as I was pressing the button, very lucky it turned out so well in the end!

            1. jia you
              • 10 Years
              7 years, 6 months ago

              It was very lucky considering his lack of double digit returns this season but sometimes getting those 50/50 calls in your own head correct can be huge!

  27. Richd
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Salah was the lowest scoring player in my team.

    Says it all really. Cash gobbler

    1. jia you
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He has been so lucky to get the points he has the past two months imo, been frustrating as a non-owner but still not frightening despite ownership.

      1. Richd
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        I only got him two weeks ago. Shouldn’t have bothered 🙂

        1. jia you
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Haha, at least no more Salah fear for you

        2. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Bmouth "should" prove fruitful.

  28. George James
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Is this bench north a bench boost?

    Guatia / Bennet / Alonso / Richarlison

    1. George James
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      *Worth

  29. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Sane owners its my fault. Got him in for Newcastle he was a God till that point

  30. mr. inconspicuous
    • 17 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    1FT, Aguero to Aubameyang or
    Sane to Mane? (already have Pogba and Son)
