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, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

        This

    2. Gruu
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Keep sterling. Sane to son

    3. Jayv807
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

      I did A but I'm doing rubbish!

  4. Amey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

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

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

        TC for me 🙂

  5. YEAH PITCH!
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who scores more this weekend. Aguero or Auba.

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

      Auba IMO

      1. YEAH PITCH!
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Would you captain him over Salah?

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

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

          1. YEAH PITCH!
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            They do.

  6. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

      Yep. Considered captaining Auba?

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

          Nice.

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

      Solid team.

  7. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Koscielny or Monreal?

    1. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      M

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

      Neither.

      Monreal if you must.

  8. Manumana
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Worth a -4 ?

    Sane & Kun - Mane & Auba

    Already have Salah

    A. Yes
    B. Nah

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

      A

  9. PL Ball
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

      Yeah.
      Jimenez & Son is great option

      1. PL Ball
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers.

        Looks like i'm stuck with Richarlison though..

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

      Salah-11
      Auba-13

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

      2
      5

    3. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Feel like one of them will fail to deliver.

      Not sure which one.

  11. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

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

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

      Bit of a hail mary.

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

      Can't be too cross with that.

    3. PL Ball
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Haha. Talk about a late success story!

  12. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    92 pts without Aguero

    I’ll take that and run

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

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

    2. Kabayan
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      47 pts and joined party with AMEY haha

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

    Next gameweek, go for:

    A) Aguero CHE Salah BOU

    Or

    B) Richarlison WAT Aubameyang HUD

    1. subhojit123
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

  14. subhojit123
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

      1

  15. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Sane > Mane for -4?

    Midfield is:
    Salah Hazard Son Pogba SANE

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

      Not worth -4

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I did it. So biased (Yes)

  16. gryffsonofarthur
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Is swapping Aguero for Aubameyang worth a -4?

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

      Yes imo, i moved in auba for -4 earlier

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

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

  17. john25
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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, 1 month 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, 1 month ago

        Last match in my team*

  18. tibollom
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month 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

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

  20. pakornk

    So for this week, Salah captain right?

    1. YEAH PITCH!
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Or Auba.

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Salah/Auba/Pogba
      Not decided yet

          1. Party time
              5 years, 1 month 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
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

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