Gameweek 3 gets underway at the Vitality Stadium as Bournemouth entertain Manchester City in the 12.30pm kick-off.

The visitors have made a somewhat underwhelming start to the new season, netting just three times in the first couple of matches.

As a result, Pep Guardiola has made a number of alterations, with the decision to drop Sergio Aguero to the bench a major surprise.

With the battle for our three-man frontlines intensifying, the Argentine’s absence could trigger big sales over the upcoming international break.

Team-mates Gabriel Jesus and Kevin De Bruyne were sold by 218,000 and 117,00 FPL managers respectively last week after serving up back-to-back blanks. But a return to a lone striker system now looks set to force a reassessment of City’s attack.

For the Cherries, Eddie Howe unleashes Josh King alongside Jermain Defoe for the first time as they go in search of their first league goal of the season.

The hosts’ Ryan Fraser also drops out as Howe opts for a wing-back system, with Charlie Daniels and Adam Smith on the flanks.

    Like a lot of people, I sold Jesus this week. I feel ok about it. Of course he's going to score some goals, but given Pep's unpredictable selections, I'd rather have Kane and Lukaku in the long term.

    1. Oven Glover

      I'm selling after this gw. Can't trust Pep.

    3. Siggy in the Middle
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Transferred out Daniels and was tempted to transfer Jesus out for a hit. So glad I didn't.

  14. under the dog

      • 19 Years

      Me too but he'd be first sub so probably would be more painful.

      1. Mind över Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Agreed, much worse!

    • 10 Years

    Mariappa likely to play? Got him starting and Daniels first sub!

  20. Rainer

  21. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Silva is involved in everything.

  22. DantheManinaPan
    • 12 Years

    Regretted selling Jesus the moment I did it. Hope he doesn't hurt me even more

  23. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Still salty about selling Daniels for a hit

    1. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        :(. Need Bavies to score over 10 points at least now

  24. tm245

    Sorry Aguero owners but City look pretty good -- might just be the competition, but they are really moving.

    1. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, I just went from thinking they are utter garbage to who's going to stop them in the space of 5 minutes.

  25. Beatle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    KDB playing very deep

  26. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Silva the conductor.

  27. Fred54

    Any news on Atsu falling down a flight of stairs yet?

  28. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Aguero(c) going spectacularly already

  29. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    £10m for a holding midfielder. Throwing money away IMHO.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, better off with Matic.

  30. TheTinman

    I guess it's been mentioned but Aguero didn't warm up with the rest of the subs. Looks like he has taken the huff
