A Gameweek that has delivered modest returns so far, continues at pace with an tea-time encounter of some promise.

Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield, with Fantasy managers on alert and on a scouting mission as Sergio Aguero makes a return from a four-match ban to lead the attack for Pep Guardiola’s men.

There’s also a significant change in the Reds line-up, as manager Jurgen Klopp brings Emre Can into his starting XI, shifting Roberto Firmino back to the central striker role, with Divock Origi dropping to the bench.

The Belgian went into Gameweek 19 found in more than 434,000 FPL squads having provided four goals and two assists in his last six appearances.

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

    People around these parts seem to have forgotten what Aguero is capable of. I don't have him myself but his 5 goal game is probably coming in a few GWs.

            Lol

        • Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          If you don't have Kun, that could be worth a punt.

        • WVA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Nope I'm tempted on Rondon too

        • jam
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Think he'll start..?

        • Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          He's playing hull... You never know...

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          I've got aguero so he will be my captain.

          But if I didn't I was thinking of captaining brunt....

      2. Cok3y5murf

        Pogba or Mkhi?

        1. WVA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Pog imo

        2. HurriKane
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Mikhi

        3. MarvelouSuccess
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          pogba seems to be more involved.

        4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Both looked good today... Pogba might finally be showing form of a world beater

        Tough decision. Dullard or Maverick ?

        A) Costa Lallana (Dullard)

        B) Aguero Phillips (Maverick)

        1. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          B

          1. MarvelouSuccess
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            A

        2. WVA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          A

        3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Aguero is dullard, no?

          1. HurriKane
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            not at the moment. ibra costa are the dullards. kun has fallen down the ladder

        5. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Both pretty dullard

          Why not Slimani + Mhiki...that'd be pretty maverick 🙂

          Ibra, Siggy, Hazard > Kun, Pogba, Phillips (-8)

          Which will give me
          Heaton Pickford
          Evans Alonso Holebas Amat Ake
          Sanchez Pogba Eriksen Lallana Phillips
          Costa Kun Anichebe

          Which will give me 2.3m itb to get in Bellerin
