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.

    Hey all,

    Would you remove Sterling for Son for free (and keep sane) which allows a free firmino to Aub next week?

    Or would you keep Sterling and do the Sane > Son swap and get Aub in for a hit GW27?

    Trying to second guess pep against Chelsea, kinda wanna hold Sterling but getting rid of him makes life easier.

    Any advice appreciated

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      would prefer Sterling over Sane for long term, so 2nd option.

      If you are going to drop both anyway, than Sterling to Son.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        This

    2. Gruu
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Keep sterling. Sane to son

    3. Jayv807
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I'd go the second option and keep Sterling for Chelsea.

    Morning DZ. Which one would you choose?

    A) Sane >> Mane
    B) Sane Kamara >> Auba 4.3 (-4)
    C) Richarlison Kamara >> Auba 4.3 (-4)
    D) Sane Richarlison >> Mane FAnderson (-4)

    Pat
    TAA Doherty AWB
    Salah Sane Son Pogba Richarlison
    Jimenez Rashford

    (Fab Luiz Simpson Kamara)
    1FT, 4.3 ITB

    1. Jayv807
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I did A but I'm doing rubbish!

  4. Amey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Hopefully Liverpool triple would work against Bournemouth !!
    (Salah+Robbo+ Mane)

    Need a good gw to forget about Blunder 😀

    1. Jayv807
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I've got the same three. Can't go worse than my Sane captain last week right? 🙂

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        TC for me 🙂

  5. YEAH PITCH!
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Who scores more this weekend. Aguero or Auba.

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Auba IMO

      1. YEAH PITCH!
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Would you captain him over Salah?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I'm thinking about it.
          Hudds looks very bad right now

          1. YEAH PITCH!
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            They do.

  6. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Poor week compared to most. 64. Last week killed it so no problem.
    Gtg???

    Patricio
    Digne Doherty Robbo Bednarek
    Salah (c) Mane Son Richarlison
    Aubameyang(v) Jimenez

    Hamer Bamna Mitrovic Camarasa

    1. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Yep. Considered captaining Auba?

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        I need a sure fire and Salah isn't owned across the board actually in my ML

        1. YEAH PITCH!
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Nice.

    2. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Solid team.

  7. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Koscielny or Monreal?

    1. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      M

    2. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Neither.

      Monreal if you must.

  8. Manumana
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Worth a -4 ?

    Sane & Kun - Mane & Auba

    Already have Salah

    A. Yes
    B. Nah

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      A

  9. PL Ball
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Should have really kept Eden instead of buying Sane. Ugh.

    Current team..

    Lloris [Speroni]
    Laporte, Wan B, Robertson [Holebas, Connolly]
    Pogba, Richarlison, Salah, Sane [Billing]
    Ings, Aguero , Rashford

    Does Sane + Ings ==> Son + Jimenez (-4) sound good..

    Any other ideas?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah.
      Jimenez & Son is great option

      1. PL Ball
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers.

        Looks like i'm stuck with Richarlison though..

  10. gryffsonofarthur
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Points guess for these 2 for the upcoming gameweek?

    Salah (BOU)

    Auba (hud)

    Have one free transfer and am torn between the two.
    I'd guess Salah 12 points, Auba 10.

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Salah-11
      Auba-13

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      2
      5

    3. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Feel like one of them will fail to deliver.

      Not sure which one.

  11. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    So Jesus (c) punt over Sane went off well.

    1. gryffsonofarthur
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Bit of a hail mary.

    2. gryffsonofarthur
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Can't be too cross with that.

    3. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Haha. Talk about a late success story!

  12. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    92 pts without Aguero

    I’ll take that and run

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      86 here without kun, sterling or LaPorte. Got lucky!

    2. Kabayan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      47 pts and joined party with AMEY haha

  13. gryffsonofarthur
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Next gameweek, go for:

    A) Aguero CHE Salah BOU

    Or

    B) Richarlison WAT Aubameyang HUD

    1. subhojit123
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      A

  14. subhojit123
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Hi guys, which one looks a better move this week -

    1. Sterling,Quaner -> Auba, Hayden
    2. Lovren, Sane -> Kola, Mane

    1. gryffsonofarthur
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      1

  15. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Sane > Mane for -4?

    Midfield is:
    Salah Hazard Son Pogba SANE

    1. gryffsonofarthur
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I'd personally get a cheap mid as you have 4 quality mids already.

      Moutinho, Jota, Fraser ect

    2. gryffsonofarthur
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Not worth -4

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I did it. So biased (Yes)

  16. gryffsonofarthur
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Is swapping Aguero for Aubameyang worth a -4?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Yes imo, i moved in auba for -4 earlier

    2. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I'm deciding this. Will probably go for it.

  17. john25
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Who should I bench between AWB (WHM) or Digne (wat)? Any particular reasons to bench or start either of them?

    Cheers

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I'm playing Digne over awb.
      His last match in the team + Watford ain't scoring fir fun + Marco Silva needs a victory, no better place to win + Digne has very high ceiling.

      That is my thinking.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Last match in my team*

  18. tibollom
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Hey guys, thinking of doing Sane to Son for -4pts or do I hold?

    Fab
    Robbo AWB Doherty
    Sane Pogba Salah Jota
    Rash Auba Jimenez

    Stek, Peireira, Bamba, Camarasa

    Morning DZ

    Bearing in mind the fixtures between GWs 26 to 31 which 2 of the following MFs should I sell first

    Hazard

    Any ideas would be welcomed

  20. pakornk
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    So for this week, Salah captain right?

    1. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Or Auba.

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Salah/Auba/Pogba
      Not decided yet

          Bench Bennett AWB Puncheon mate?

          1. Party time
              5 years, 2 months ago

              Probably bench Lindelöf and AWB. Fulham are desperate, Utd will concede. It's 50-50 btw AWB and Bennett but I fancy the latter because it is Newcastle

        2. Ynwalfc
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Richarlison to a Jota/Moutinho. Wolves fixtures look really good for the next few gw’s. I swapped Richarlison for Jota
