Sergio Aguero (£11.4m) was named in the Manchester City starting line-up ahead of a 3 pm kick-off against Brighton and Hove Albion.

The Argentinian striker is by far the most popular captain choice for Gameweek 7 so it will be a relief for his 52.8% ownership to see him on the team sheet.

How many minutes he will manage to rack up may depend on how the match is going, considering that Pep Guardiola has hooked him off around the hour-mark twice recently.

Meanwhile, both David Silva (£8.6m) and Bernardo Silva (£7.6m) have been named in the line-up too while Aymeric Laporte (£5.6m) makes his seventh successive league start of the campaign.

Jurgen Locadia (£5.4m) leads the Brighton line with Glenn Murray (£6.5m) on the bench.

Alexandre Lacazette (£9.5m) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.8m) start up front together for Arsenal while Sokratis Papastathopoulous (5.3m) not fit enough for a place on the bench. Rob Holding (£4.4m) comes in for him, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan (£7.0m) is among the substitutes again.

Just one change for Watford as Marc Navarro (£4.3m) comes in for the injured Daryl Janmaat (£5.0m).

There will plenty of interest in happenings at Goodison Park this afternoon as both Richarlison (£6.7m) and Aleksandar Mitrovic (£7.0m) go head-to-head for Everton and Fulham.

Spurs have switched to a back-three for their trip to Huddersfield with Kieran Trippier (£6.1m) and Harry Kane (£12.4m) hoping to benefit from the system change.

It looks like Kenedy (£4.9m) could be playing at left-back for Newcastle today although we will see once the match has kicked off. DeAndre Yedlin (£4.5m) has overcome doubts over his fitness to start the match at right-back.

Ricardo Pereira (£5.1m) returns to the Leicester side, but in a more advanced position than his previous berth of right-back. He has been deployed in attacking midfield.

    Is Pogba > Maddison a good or bad move?

    Thanks.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Good if Maddison does well, otherwise bad.

    1. Fred54

  6. sambyy
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    That's why players dive

  7. Pariße
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    No wonder there are players diving when the refs don’t give penalties if the players stay on their feet.

    1. Totalfootball
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Which game ?!

      1. Pariße
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Arsenal. Lacazette was tripped but tried to stay on his feet. Borderline penalty, but the ref decided not to give it.

    2. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      If you don’t get the decisions, cheating is perfectly justified!

      1. J T
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Convincing and deceiving are two different things

  8. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Zinchenko doing his best to do his best Mendy impression. Really attacking!

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      He does KdB and Mendy. What a versatile performer!

    2. Pass
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      His right footed cross was not bad either

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Rose should have scored. Great ball in from Trippier.

  10. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    When does Utd games go from red to blue on the ticker?

    1. Fred54

    • 12 Years

    UGH HARRY

  15. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Kane bottles a 1-on-1

  16. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Auba denied a pen scoring chance it seems

    1. PrettyDick
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      yep. Watching the game. Clear cut penalty, but Laca tried to stay on his feet and Dean waved it off. Incorrectly so

  17. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Should be scoring that but at least he’s lively

  18. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Kane close 🙁

  19. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Knockheart YC

  20. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    KDB back & playing LB??

  21. PrettyDick
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Trapper almost with an assist, but Rose bottled it. Both those things expected.

    Also, Fulham forced to a defensive substitution early on, doesn't exactly weaken Richarlison's chances of scoring..

  22. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Mitro shot off target

  23. Tokosbobet88
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Hows attacking is D.Silva looking

  24. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    wat a chance for kane

  25. FPL Touches
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Pereira SOT.

    Essential.

  26. Butcher
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    FFS Kane

  27. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Schurle shot off target

    Bad miss

  28. Slartibartfast
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Probably should have captained Aguero

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Well he ain't scored yet.

  29. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Got Jonny playing for Wolves, but having watched Breakfast Club, may be better off if they concede.

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Why?

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      How-so? Genuinely.

    3. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Wot

  30. Fred54
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Watching Soccer Saturday on mute is tortuous. Stelling's facial expressions gives it a big build up and I think is it Aguero? Is it Richa? Instead they cut to Tony Cottee for Brentford v Reading.
