Aguero and Sané start for Man City as Sterling benched

4,140 Comments

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.

      Seems solid. I think I'd play AWB over Bednarek, but it's a close call.

        I can't see Klopp playing him from the bench, he either plays the full 90 (or at least 60+) or not at all.

    Bottomed:

    I've got 5.2 to spend on a midfielder as a placeholder until Brooks is fit. Ideally they will have a nice fixture in GW27 as they will have to play. Looking at Paterson or Torreira at the moment, any better options? Full up of Wolves unfortunately.

    Frees up triple captaincy for Higuain potentially (or someone else) in gwk 35. Chelsea could have CAR & WHU.

        Allows you to go that slight bit bigger on the first 11 when wildcarding.

        Saving a FT could be very valuable this week though

          Yes, carrying 2 FT into the blank might be needed. I’ll wait until Friday and see how it’s looking.

          Good luck if you play it!

            Cheers. I'm probably more likely to keep it as all the bench boosts could negate the effect of the TC chip. I'm definitely not ruling out using it in a sgwk though

      I'd have to say Sane too. Always a risk he flips the switch and gets back in Pep's good graces but he's had a couple of mediocre performances.

          Dunno, every team is different, consider your likely future moves and if you can invest that saved money down the track. Felipe seems a streaky player and could do well in upcoming fixtures but Mane is in-form it seems and at home to BOU.

      lol even though it’s a bad fixture you can’t bench hazard over a defender from a bottom half teams that is half his price imo

          Just realised he's risen to 9.8 so I won't lose anything if he drops. It's not a hard decision, I just don't like making spur of the moment transfers. Will probably just transfer to Son by the weekend.

    What changes to make? Assuming Agüero to Auba is a done deal:

    Fabianski

    Van Dijk - Doherty - Laporte

    Pogba - Mountinho - Salah - Richarlison

    Aguero - Jesus - Rashford

    Bench: WB - Digne - Snodgrass

    For a -4:

    Rich to Son?
    Jesus to Lacazette?
    Jesus to Jimenez?

    Moves for GW25 were Digne and Hazard to Laporte and Sane.

    Had I stuck with Hazard and give TC to Sterling (no Sane move and him), I would have scored 109 points as opposed to the current 75 points.

    That’s more than 30 points lost and would have jumped ahead no. 1 in ML.

    Think this is the roughest point of my season.
