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.

          Maybe you value it a little higher than me.

            Well didn’t turn out to be the good omen I was hoping for (apart from Laporte!)

    Took a rage -8. Was planing to take haz and Kamara out for a hit but with sane situation and haz better fixtures after blank I decided for this, at least feels good long term:
    (Lloris, sane Kamara out- patricio, Højbjerg Aruba in)

    Patricio (button)
    Kola taa shaw (AWB Bednarek)
    Salah haz son Pogba (Højbjerg)
    Aruba rash jimi

    1. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Auba of course 🙂

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Aruba is a nice hot pick

      1. Teomi
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Differential 😉

    Hazard > Sterling (C) turned out to be an utter failure then.

    1. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not that bad I suppose. Not great though

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      At least he did not blank.

    3. Richd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Why ?

      Sterling did fine. Surely you wouldn’t have captained hazard. Maybe you’d have captained sane

      1. Geezer
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        This

      2. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Would have captained Sane but my move would have been Alonso > Laporte.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Hardly a fail is it

    4. 420king
      • 9 Years

      Who'd you C if you hadn't done it?

    5. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Couldve been better, couldve been worse. Take it and move on mate.

    6. FPL Forward Thinker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      No. Utter failure would be hazard to sane TC and not owning aguero

  6. Bobby

    150 points behind ML leader - too much to make up yep?

    1. Ambrosiana Inter

      • 6 Years

      Yes game over I think.This season it's difficult to even catch up 40 to 50 points

      1. sminkypinky
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Weeelll... mate in my ml was the only one to bring in and captain Aguero so....

        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Rival had Anderson and C Aguero and no Sane. I was with Sane C. That is already 40p in one gw.

    4. Bobby

    Is Anderson and Auba in for Firmino and Sane worth a 4-point hit?

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Anderson really?

      1. 420king
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        He plays Fulham in 27 and Huddersfield in 31. Played well against Liverpool too.

        1. Royal5
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Fair enough. I don't trust West Ham personally

      Both don't give a fig about the FA Cup. Both playing second string teams. Think they're both playing to get knocked out.

    Pep absolutely trolling hundreds, thousands of FPL managers.

    That’s his goal. Not to win the Premier League or Champions League. Just to troll us.
