Aguero asking questions of non-owners as De Bruyne ticks over

Sheffield Utd 0-1 Manchester City

  • Goals: Sergio Aguero (£11.9m)
  • Assists: Kevin de Bruyne (£10.7m)
  • Penalty misses: Gabriel Jesus (£9.5m)
  • Penalty saves: Dean Henderson (£4.9m)
  • Bonus Points: Henderson x3, Nicolas Otamendi x3 (£5.0m), de Bruyne x1

Sergio Aguero (£11.9m) continued to pester Fantasy Premier League managers not in possession of him by extending his scoring run at Sheffield United.

His ever-increasing ownership, now at 19.5%, were initially left frustrated to see Pep Guardiola name him on the bench but, such is the Argentinian’s form right now, he didn’t let that get in the way of further attacking returns.

All Aguero needed was 23 minutes on the pitch at Bramall Lane to find the net, latching onto the end of a trademark Kevin de Bruyne (£10.7m) cross.

“He is on fire right now. Strikers need momentum and I feel he has it. Three goals before, two goals the other day and he scored today.” – Pep Guardiola

It means Aguero has now scored in each of his last four Premier League matches, his total of seven since Gameweek 20 the most of any top-flight forward at the time of writing.

Even though Aguero finished his latest game with just four points to his name, courtesy of a yellow card, there are still plenty of encouragements for his owners moving forward.

These are mainly connected with Gabriel Jesus (£9.5m) who had an evening to forget at Bramall Lane.

It was the Brazilian who came in for Aguero, joined in the front-three by Raheem Sterling (£11.7m) and Riyad Mahrez (£8.5m), but for the first hour or so, Manchester City were decidedly flat in attack.

Pep Guardiola had tried to match Sheffield United’s system, to some extent, playing Fernandinho (£5.2m), Nicolas Otamendi (£5.0m) and the returning Aymeric Laporte (£6.3m) in a back-three. However, this decision, reportedly taken to protect Laporte, did not bring the best out in Manchester City.

“Yeah (Laporte is okay). He could not play 90 minutes, especially here. That’s why we play with five at the back to protect him. He is an important player for us and we missed him a lot.” – Pep Guardiola

Sheffield United, who have defended admirably this season, were equal to most of what was thrown at them initially.

They did concede a penalty when Mahrez was brought down in the box after 35 minutes, but Dean Henderson (£4.9m) stepped up to save Jesus’ effort.

It is this miss that summed up his night, to the point that Pep Guardiola even admitted after the game that he may have to review the penalty situation at Manchester City.

“I have to reflect on (the penalty situation). I always give confidence to the players to take it but maybe I have to take the decision which guy is going to take it – not for Gabriel today because Sergio and Raheem have missed too but we are not safe. In the knockout stages, it’s so important because these kind of details make the difference most of the time. We have to reflect on it. I have to make the decision [on] the guy who will take the penalty. Ederson is the best. Believe me, he’s the best taker we have in penalties. Eddy has no blood in his veins, he’s so calm so he could do it.” – Pep Guardiola

Crucially, Manchester City took on a new lease of life once Aguero took to the pitch. With the team having previously playing quite static prior to the change, there was considerably better and more insightful movement afterwards.

While Aguero’s goals will have gone a long way to re-establishing himself as the in-form centre-forward, his owners may be boosted even more by Tuesday’s performance from Jesus.

As for de Bruyne, he continues to tick over with points, despite the decreased interest in his services for the Double Gameweek.

The Belgian was sold by over 200,000 managers in the fallout of Gameweek 23, only Marcus Rashford (£9.1m), Jamie Vardy (£10.0m), Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) and Richarlison (£8.1m) moved on by more.

In the end, de Bruyne ended up with a seven-point score, adjusted down from nine when he was initially awarded maximum bonus at full-time, which probably suited all parties given the context of the Double Gameweek.

Those who held onto the Belgian will certainly be content with another return, while those who sold him for Mohamed Salah (£12.4m) or Sadio Mané (£12.4m) may already be confident their new Liverpool midfielder can eclipse seven points across two matches.

Either way, a trip to Spurs in Gameweek 25 will hardly put off investment in Manchester City players, be it Aguero or de Bruyne, considering their defensive record since Mourinho’s arrival. After that, Manchester City host West Ham in Gameweek 26 so the short-term fixtures are still positive for de Bruyne and his colleagues.

Meanwhile, those in possession of Mahrez continue to experience nothing but bad luck. He was arguably the best player on the pitch for Manchester City against Sheffield United but left Bramall Lane with no Fantasy returns.

It was the Algerian who was fouled for the first-half penalty and he would have earned an assist had Jesus been able to put it away.

Finally, even though Laporte was back and Manchester City kept a much-needed clean sheet, there were still a few opportunities for Sheffield United.

John Fleck (£5.0m), who has been in fine form recently, was nearly played in during the first-half while Oli McBurnie (£5.7m) spurned a chance in the second period.

Also, Fantasy managers should take note of the fact that John Lundstram (£5.1m), as some suspected, did drop out of the team.

He was replaced by Muhamed Bešić (£4.4m) but came on for the final 12 minutes.

Whether this leaves Lundstram in a dangerous position of losing his place regularly remains to be seen. He has played a lot of football this season and it has taken some time for the competition to catch up with him. At the very least, it’s a situation for Fantasy managers to monitor.

Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): D Henderson; O’Connell, Egan, Basham (Robinson 78′); Stevens, Fleck, Norwood, Bešić (Lundstram 78′), Baldock; Sharp (Mousset 59′), McBurnie.

Manchester City XI (3-4-3): Ederson; Laporte (Garcia 78′), Otamendi, Fernandinho; Zinchenko, Rodri, De Bruyne, Walker; Sterling (B Silva 90+2′), Jesus (Aguero 67′), Mahrez.

      Wait. What if Vardy gets 25 and Tony 15 tonight?
      Kelly to Stephens seems cool, bench next week.

        Thanks

  2. Hotdogs for Tea

    Imagine Ederson on penalties … surely he would be essential then ?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      City got a tough run of fixtures plus they've got the CL to worry about.

    2. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      He wont be.
      Pep said this with irony imo. Imagine if he didnt score and must run all the way. Not gonna happen.

      Remember this being talked about for weeks last season.

        Imagine your goalie missing a pen & getting an unnecessary minus points

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          is that any different to an outfield player missing a penalty ?

      • FPLHaggis

        Hans Jorg Butt essential in Bundesliga Fantasy

      • FPL Pillars

        GK not going to take in reality IMO

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Pep has made these noises before ... I think he may be serious this time

      • El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        No way. 1st taker is Aguero by a mile long. The 2nd and 3rd takers need to change IMO. I would do it KDB as 2nd and David Silva as 3rd.

        1. El Presidente
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Defo not Sterling & Jesus!

        2. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years

          Kun has missed recently ... Pep is getting annoyed

      A) Soy (got at 5.1) > def up to 5.4 and roll FT
      B) Madds > Martial
      C) Soy, Vardy > Lascelles, Auba
      D) other idea

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        *scared to sell Vardy 🙂

      2. Karan14
        • 7 Years

      3. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        A to SHU triple up?

        1. StoichkovFPL
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          not too maverick? think with double up Im ok 😉

    6. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years

      Kelly or Fernandez?

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Kelly's time is over

      2. StoichkovFPL

        Easy Fernandez

      3. wulfrunian
        • 7 Years

        cheers

      4. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Lascelles over Fernandez

      5. El Presidente
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Kelly's done! Wrap up and sell with a profit ASAP

    7. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Brighton and Ryan have been really poor defensively. Keep or ditch for a hit?

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        not worth a hit

    8. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hendo
      TAA - Lundy - Soyuncu
      Mane - Salah - Son - Grealish
      Vardy - Ings - Maupay

      (4.0 - Cantwell - Rico - Dunk)
      1 FT & 1.3m

      Vardy ➡️ Auba for free if he disappoints again?

      Will keep Maupay for next 2 and then upgrade to Jimenez for GW27.

      Any other ideas?

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I have option to change Vardy to Auba but Im not sure it good idea

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          It's not a bad idea if he blanks again.

      2. Fulchester's New Centr…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Think Jamie will continue to do ok. Soy back to early season, benchable form. Stephens (bench next week) or SHU three-way?

        1. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah I like the triple SHU idea not against it. If it does look like Vardy is worth keeping then I might do Soy or Dunk to Stevens/Baldock.

    9. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Soy to who?

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheap option
        Stephens/Williams/Lascelles imo

      2. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Stevens or Stephens

      3. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        If I sell - Stevens or down to Lascelles for cash

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

        Stephens or Lascelles

      5. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Williams

    10. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Really not sure what to do this week. Got 2FT. Nothing in the bank, so what to do?

      Kelly has to go soon. As does Soyuncu and Maddy. But surely not against West Ham at home?

      Ryan Button
      TAA Soyuncu Lund Kelly Kiko
      Salah mane KDB Maddison Grealish
      Vardy Ings Greenwood

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Oh wait. They have Chelsea.

        So Soyuncu and Kelly to...

        Stephens and Fernández?

        1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Or Is RICO back in the game now?

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

        have you missed the deadline??

      3. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I have very similar team.Was thinking about Soy, Madds > cheap def, Martial

        1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Interesting. Like the sound of this

      4. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Lascelles over Fernandez imo

    11. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Anyone going to punt the new Villa striker once he is added?

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        If he is 5.5mil and shows good form

      2. The Ejiptian King
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        lol, all I know about him is that he has pretty good stats on Football Manager, that's all the research I could be bothered to do.

    12. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Any ideas? Got 2 free transfers and 1.1 in the bank. Would you want to play Ings against Pool?

      Guaita Button
      TAA Soy Lund Sidibe Reid
      Mane Salah KDB Grealish Hayden
      DCL Vardy Ings

      1. Party time
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Upgrade reid. Bench Ings?

          1. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            If I replace Reid with someone cheap then Ings is probably still better for points. Hayden to Fleck or Doucoure maybe?

            1. Party time
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Yeah although I would favor Fleck slightly ahead of Doucoure

                1. Jullepuu
                  • 4 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  I don't know why I'm not a fan of Fleck. The fixtures are there and he is cheaper than Doucoure.

                  1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
                    • 10 Years
                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    I will give Doucoure one more and likely cash in to Fleck if I dont see improvement

                    1. Jullepuu
                      • 4 Years
                      4 years, 2 months ago

                      Fleck is probably the best fifth mid given the fixtures and the price. Doucoure playing cam just sounds tempting

                      1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
                        • 10 Years
                        4 years, 2 months ago

                        Yeah he is a very awkward looking player. Should of done more eye test rather than gone purely on returns

        • Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Newcastle..
          Who the hell is nailed now all 5 cb's are fit?

          1. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Lascelles is the captain I believe

            1. Fpl Richie
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              That doesn't always guarantee anything... But he is good value and more useful than rico/kelly for the next fixtures.

              1. The Ejiptian King
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                He's right though, Lascelles is the most nailed.

                1. Geordie19
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  Lasvelles for being nailed.

          • 4 Years

          To Auba or not to Auba. I also want to get Jimenez back. Not happy with Ings being benched and he has trolled me since getting him in.

          1. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Give Ings some more time. Form still good and so are the fixtures. Auba is a no from me but he can do good

            • 7 Years

            Ings getting rested is great, less chance he breaks. They have 5 great fixtures after pool too.

            Tricky one. SOU is a totally different proposition right now with a lot of dynamic going forward but I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see a Pukki party over 2.0

              TAA: 8
              Soy: 6

              Salah: 10
              Greenwood: 1
              Vardy: 6

              Yeah. Bit hard to reach 3 digits. 70+ is achievable then?

              Lol he would likely drive me to it but minutes and fixtures are good.

                This is true, not really thinking about him though, already have Ings plus no space in midfield.

            ...great goal and he's playing well of late but seems unnecessary when we have an in form and fit Ings on the cheap!

          Must have been still asleep and def didn't have my coffee as I'd totally forgot about making a transfer this morning!
          Logic was:
          A. Wanted to distract myself from removing Mahrez or Maupay and regret it afterwards.
          B. Might be needing an additional bench player over the 28/30 blank game weeks.
          Anyhow... wait for it... the most exciting transfer of all time...
          ...
          ...
          Choudury to Hayden
          that deserves a lol@me 😉

              Love the support dudes haha, but still silly to pull that trigger so early in the GW... then again what the hell, it's only a game eh and must have felt right at the time! Just out at dinner here and checked my team and had forgotten that I had made the move this morning 🙂

                I think it is time to move on. Fixtures not even appealing although I am not a west ham fan, I am ditching

                  Think your right mate!! He won’t be back for the Liverpool match will he?? I’ve got Henderson on my bench to come on haha

                      I believe he won't be back, if he was going to, then they won't have signed Randolph again. Fingers crossed for you 🙂

                        Haha thank Mate!! He ah I think your right there well hopefully anyway, you also think that they wouldn’t want to rush him back into a massive match like Liverpool too

                    Is this worth a hit? Or is there a better way to get Auba in my team?

                    In: Auba, Doucoure, Hayden
                    Out: KDB, Greenwood, Grealish

                    Current team:
                    Ryan, McG
                    TAA, Soy, Lund, Holgate, Kelly
                    Salah, Mane, KDB, Maddison, Grealish

                      4 years, 2 months ago

                      sorry but i absolutely hate it. would do a hit to move the opposite direction

                      4 years, 2 months ago

                      if you must have Aub then either Vardy/Maddison to Auba/X or maybe a big move that involves you swapping a liverpool mid for another liverpool defender and using the money to get Auba in

                        • 6 Years
                        4 years, 2 months ago

                        Thanks - yes my other option is:

                        Out: Mane, Greenwood, Soyuncu
                        In: Auba, Hayden, VVD

                        Have a feeling Auba is going to go on a good run...

                    Well, I thought I captained Salah this week..

                    Turns out I didn't confirm and I've received a whopping 8 points for Aguero.

                    I was toying with the idea of downgrading Rashford to Tosun in advance of this week. Thankfully I came to my senses.

                    Did any of you see the open goal that Tosun blew last night? It made up my mind anyway. Steer clear!

                    This Trent TC will either be phenomenal or a complete flop.

                    Only other time I’ve ever even captained a defender was Mendy start of last season, got me 8 I believe but was super close to another 2A and 3BPs which would’ve been awesome.

                      I captained Doherty home to Huddersfield last season, Hudds won their first game for months and he got 1 point.

                      TAA has a lot of strings to his FPL bow,

                      He'll hopefully give us a run for our money anyways
