Dugout Discussion – Man City vs Leicester

Saturday’s events conclude at the Etihad Stadium where the champions-elect Manchester City host Leicester City.

Fantasy managers will of course be focused on the home side’s attacking assets, with Sergio Aguero backed by 778,000 (13.5%) with the captaincy, including 26 of the top 100 – second only to Mohamed Salah (50).

The Argentine goes into this game with seven goals in his last four home Premier League matches and 10 in his last six in all competitions.

Kevin De Bruyne (3.8%) and Raheem Sterling (2.5%) are also among the top seven captaincy picks for the Gameweek and also boast exceptional records on home turf. De Bruyne has scored 33 points from his previous four, while Sterling has produced 37.

The City defence has been less productive, with just one clean sheet from their last five Gameweeks. Nicolas Otamendi – the top owned defender in the game (31.3%), starts his 15th successive match in all competitions today.

Leicester will be buoyed by City’s defensive record. They recall Riyad Mahrez to the bench after his recent absence following City’s deadline day bid. That leaves Jamie Vardy as perhaps their most likely source of Fantasy returns – he boasts goals in each of his last three Gameweeks.

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

    Remember the red card Kompany should’ve received in the 2nd minute against LEI? That’s why I hope LEI will win this game.

      Do you remember Maguire’s tackle on Foden in the league cup? The kid has just returned after suffering ankle ligament damage.

    “Gabriel is coming back soon,” said Pep “Maybe in one week, 10 days, two weeks, he will be ready.”

    End of Kun soon

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      The end was after his hatty 😉

      1. LǝgleSs e|even

        Hope you are right mate. Cant wait to free them funds up

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Kun is so shit it's not even funny, he has lost so much pace compared to 2 seasons ago. Relies on pens & flukes now, Pep will get rid this summer

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Shit is a very strong word but age is definitely catching up to him. Not as explosive in speed as before. Plays like Tevez at Juventus. Strong and power shot.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          I suppose it's more relative to his price. If he was 8.5 you could see through it. But for 12.0 he is a waste of space

  19. LǝgleSs e|even

    When both your Goalies outscore your Defense lineup!

    Ryan + Adrian

    Will Lingard play tomorrow?

    1. SpaceCadet

      Of course

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      I think he'll drop him for Herrera & move Pogba into attacking mid

  21. camarozz

    Have 2fts and need to get rid of Mee and Duffy. They are really doing my head in.

    1. Delph & Safety

    6. CrouchDown

  23. HD7
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Aguero or Ota should go first?

    *If Aguero I will get Firmino (have Kane)
    *If Ota I wonder maybe VVD (have De Gea Alonso Vert currently)

    1. Unfathomable Ruination
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
