Aguero and Sané start for Man City as Sterling benched

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.

    I’ve seen a stat that Man City’s bench tonight have scored a total of 36 goals this season, equalling the tally for Everton’s entire squad...

    Kind of relieved. I hope City bang 10 past Everton so that this joke of a manager Silva gets sacked in the morning. So disrespectul towards home fans and the prem. No integrity. Laughable club led by a laughable manager. Atleast after tonight i can scrap all hopes of winning minileagues, which means i can go back to giving zero fks. Absolutely shocking.

        Everton is a complete and utter disgrace to the premier league. I legitimately hope they lose 0-10. And i actually don`t hope they sack Silva, i hope they keep him so they can keep being a laughing stock.

                Ask stupid questions, and i`ll give you a stupid answer. Usually the best players should play. Not change the entire team before a match against the best team in the league.

                      Don't give us it. Your annoyed because you're a Liverpool fan and Everton benched a player you own. Don't pretend you're on some kind of moral crusade to uphold the integrity of the competition.

                  It's not about being a know it all though is it? Captaining Aguero in a DGW is probably the least lucky thing you can do in FPL.

                      So are you saying that every positive outcome is luck? Every hat trick scored in history is luck?

                      It's about playing the odds. There was a very high probability that Aguero would start one game and get minutes in the other. Hence a very good shout for captaincy. That's not lucky, just deal with it.

                    I personally wasn't trying to take anything away from you, well done on getting it right, but there is still a big element of luck involved, yes it's wise to look at the players quality and fixtures but you surely can't have predicted a hatrick followed by then starting three days later against a really poor looking Everton team? direct comparison is sane who has looked equally as nailed and on form, I'm sure many on here felt the exact same way captaining him, the fact this site also got it wrong surely helps argue that it wasn't expected.

    Help guys and gals, planning for Chelsea and city blank game week. I have a pap bench, am I better to transfer out alonso for arsenal defender for -4 knowing few easy on paper games or bench Alonso and risk only having 10 players in couple of weeks. Alonso out also allows funds to free up Richarlison out the week after to someone who can hit a barn door
