My best replacements for injured De Bruyne ahead of FPL Gameweek 20

Fantasy Premier League managers are now frantically searching for a viable replacement for Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) ahead of Gameweek 20.

I recently signed the Manchester City midfielder for Double Gameweek 19 and, considering he is our for four to six weeks according to Pep Guardiola’s last estimate, he is going straight back out again.

But who to replace him with? That is the key question, which I will look to answer in my latest article about how my team is faring in 2020/21.

BEST DE BRUYNE REPLACEMENTS

I excluded Bruno Fernandes (£11.3m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) from my shortlist of five possible candidates since I already have them in my team but I think both of them are clearly the best choices if you are a non-owner. Despite modest performances in the Double Gameweek, we all know what they are capable of and both of them are set-and-forget picks for me right now.

RAHEEM STERLING (£11.4m): Manchester City plays against West Brom and Sheffield United in the next two Gameweeks so it is tempting to make a direct switch from De Bruyne to one of his teammates. Having started seven of the last eight Premier League matches, Sterling is probably the most nailed and explosive option among City’s midfielders, in my opinion. Looking at his numbers, if we split his season in half, it becomes clear his expected goals and assists per 90 minutes increased a lot in the past few months.

Sterling’s expected Goal Involvement xGI) per 90 minutes (Gameweeks 1 to 9 on the left and Gameweeks 10 to 19 on the right)

Regardless of this improvement, I think he is clearly overpriced this season, especially if we compare him with the likes of Fernandes, Son or even Grealish. Coupled with the ever-present possibility of a random benching in an easy fixture, I doubt Sterling is the best available option to replace De Bruyne.

SON HEUNG-MIN (£9.7m): After selling Son last week, I was fairly settled on Salah, De Bruyne and Fernandes as my heavy-hitters of choice going forward. But unfortunately, injuries cannot be predicted and so, Son is back on my plans once again.

At first glance Spurs’ fixtures seem really tough which may scare potential investors in the South Korean superstar. They do play against Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City in three of the next five Gameweeks, which is far from ideal. On the bright side, however, three of the next four matches are at home and it seems to be the perfect moment to play against Liverpool and Chelsea, given their recent poor form.

All in all, I think Son is definitely one of the best (if not the absolute best) options to replace De Bruyne. His attacking numbers are great, his finishing is second to none in the Premier League and his pricing seems fair considering what he offers.

JACK GREALISH (£7.7m): With just one attacking return in the last four Gameweeks, Grealish has been underwhelming as an FPL asset lately, which will possibly deter further investment from non-owners like me. It’s important to note, however, that he played against Chelsea, United and City and yet, he still managed to create the second most chances among all midfielders, only behind Mason Mount (£6.8m).

I think Grealish is still a great option going forward. He is at the heart of an impressive Aston Villa team and he is nailed to play 90 minutes in every single match, which is a very important factor these days. Even without spot-kick duties, I think he offers an impressive mixture of safety, attacking threat and price.

PHIL FODEN (£6.3m): With five shots inside the box and six chances created against Aston Villa, Foden immediately positioned himself as an appealing option for those on the market for a midfielder.

However, even after De Bruyne’s injury, Guardiola has a lot of attacking options at his disposal and I think it’s highly unlikely Foden will suddenly become a nailed starter, regardless of how many goals he scores or how many chances he creates.

I’m sure he will be worth £6.3m, even with the odd benching but, with so much money available right now, I don’t feel like sweating City’s lineup every Gameweek when there are several more reliable and safe options to pick from.

ILKAY GUNDOGAN (£5.5m):Having scored five goals in the last seven matches while playing at least 70 minutes in every single one of them, Gundogan looks like an absolute bargain, especially now that there is an extra-spot available in City’s midfield.

If we add spot-kick duties and two amazing fixtures to the equation, Gundogan becomes really hard to ignore. The only downside I can think of is the possibility of a rest very soon, given how much he has been playing lately and his history of long-term injuries.

CONCLUSION

At the moment, I managed to discard Sterling and Foden and it seems like my decision will most likely be between Son and Gundogan (although Grealish is still in the mix).

If you are looking to upgrade someone for a hit or even for free next week, I think the decision is fairly easy. Gundogan offers insane value right now with great attacking numbers, decent expected minutes and penalty-duties for just £5.5m.

For the rest of us, who are looking to buy the best possible option regardless of price , I think it’s really close between Son and Gundogan. It’s actually quite possible I get Son for De Bruyne this week and Gundogan for Soucek next week but, with three days still to go until the deadline, I am waiting a bit more before making my final decision.

      Considering the exact same transfer.

      Sound moves

      1. Flynny

        Cheers!

      We've got almost Identical teams.

      I have Robertson, KWP, and Adams where you have Chilwell, Dllas, Watkins.

      I'm planning on doing KDB -> Gundo this week, and Adams -> Kane next week.

      The question is whether or not we do it before tonight's deadline? Probably yes?

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm actually going to wait till Tuesday

        Don't usually do that - but given covid uncertainty will do

        I don't lose anything from the kdb drop....

        1. gart888
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I actually don't lose anything from the KDB drop either. It's the Gundo rise I'd be more annoyed by.

  2. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    KDB to Sterling captain anyone?

    1. doppelganger
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I will do it

    2. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yep I’m going in. Make or break

    3. OleBall
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Let's GOOOO

      1. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        All or nothing

    4. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Tempted.

    5. DMP
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      just did it.

    6. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn’t having looked at Sterling’s recent form (eye test and stats over the entire season)

      The only stats others will mention are historical ones where he was in much better form when playing without KDB, so I wouldn’t put too much weight on that. Also his record vs the relegation type clubs historically was great when he had form.

      Essentially this is a punt for him to go back into his old form- I would rather bring in, captain Gundogan and save the cash to spread elsewhere in future GWs

      However you seem like you need support in your punt so GOOD LUCK!

      1. OleBall
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He's the shortest price at the bookies to score anytime this GW. Odds are in Raz's favour

  3. Wılly
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A. KDB to Sterling
    B. KDB to Gundogan
    C. KDB & Soucek to Gundogan & Sterling (-4)

    1. OleBall
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A. Get double City defence

  4. 0james0
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How much will Vardy drop by? I bought him early, before the double game week, expecting a rise, he dropped 0.1. I'd like to hold off replacing him until closer to deadline day, so I can afford for him to drop another 0.1 and not make any more of a loss, but don't want to lose more than that!

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Red flagged players only usually drop by 0.2m max

  5. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling, Gundogan, Foden - Pick one to replace KDB
    Or should I go radically different and get Rashford or Auba in?

    1. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I was looking at Auba but might not play due to personal reasons

    2. fplking14
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Foden - Will be rotated but the best pick
      Sterling - is Sterling
      Gundogan - very good pick for his price but it all depends on whether he still plays attacking mid.

      Note all City players except Jesus have lower attacking stats without KDB playing.

      Auba - not atm from an Arsenal fan
      Rashford - OK but inconsistent. And Pogba his shifting him RW where he is less effective. (From my friend who is a United fan).

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Gundogan for me. I could get Son also, but getting Kane would be problem after that.

    4. dansully3
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In the same pickle and I'm considering B.Silva now also. He was rested today whereas Gun played 30 mins again.

  6. MIDIMAN2010
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Apologies for noob question..

    Value = 1.2
    Purchase = 1.1
    Selling price = 1.1

    If the price drops... does the selling price also drop ?

    1. Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, Selling price drops if the player price drops below the purchase price

      1. MIDIMAN2010
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ah nice one. ok so has to be below.

    2. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In your example, if the value price drops NO selling price does not drop UNLESS the value plummets below the purchase price

      1. MIDIMAN2010
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Nice one

        1. MIDIMAN2010
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Was looking at KDB in context as he will drop but no immediate concern that I will lose value in him.

    Wrote an article for Planet FPL on Chelsea and their recent problems. Not really anything FPL related in it, but might be of interest to a couple here 🙂

      Really insightful.

      Before reading I thought I’d ask if you think both Pulisic and Werner will start at the weekend as I own both!

      After reading it, I can see it’s a bit of a minefield!

      Strange times at Chelsea, it’s a bit confusing!

    3. HattyMachine
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Really great article. FPL takeaway for me is - Frank’s lost the dressing room, Werner and Havertz haven’t worked. Nobody knows what system they are playing. Avoid CHE assets. I have Mount only - and he could make room very soon. Would not be surprised to see Frank with P45 in next two weeks.

  8. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    KDB, Wilson > Gundo, Kane (-4) now?

    Or spread the transfers over two weeks?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Spread them

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Spread

  9. fplking14
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What are people doing with Salah?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping for now.

    2. Marcin the Pole
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping for a couple more weeks at least

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably keeping, since KdB and Vardy are bigger issues. Snd he looked sharpaä last week.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        this

    4. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping

    5. MIDIMAN2010
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Keep. He’s a season keeper for me. He will come good over the rest of season... I hope

    6. Gross Blank Point
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Might buy him, although keeping the funds for Aguero in a few weeks is tempting

  10. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    No Watkins bonus. That's annoying.

  11. BenDavies
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A disastrous DGW for me. 97 points. Pathetic. After the WC16 in preparation for this week fell to pieces because of covid, cancellations and rescheduling, I had to make do with an average squad. Dropped just outside the top 1k.

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nice rank regardless Bavies

    2. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I’d even call that a slight humble brag

      1. Black Knights
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Not for the first time this week.

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Well... He is in a bad situation 🙁 now, very difficult to climb to top 100 or try to win after that. Once you get that high you want more and climbing is hard and protecting rank is for dullards only.

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Unlucky, like my whole season.

    4. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It's all Chris Wood's fault!

    5. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Tough to hold ground when you are that high up there, just take it week by week theres plenty of potential right now in between all the chaos, half the season to go most would love to be in your position so stay positive

    6. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You’re gonna need to delicately tread through 25-29 after using your FH too.

  12. Marcin the Pole
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Btw, Matt Targett is some boy. Single handedly saved my bench boost (considerable luck involved I'll admit).

  13. boroie
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Would you do this for a -4...

    KDB & Soucek -> Sterling and Gundogan

    Only have the exact money to do it so have to do it tonight or I won’t be able to...

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Just do one of them IMO

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who to captain?

    A) Cancelo
    B) Gundogan
    C) Salah
    D) Bamford
    E) Fernandes

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A for me, but I’m trying to find a super differential

    2. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      im on Bruno but if he plays 90 or close to 90 tomorrow will have to rethink it

    3. AzzaroMax99
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Go rogue with Cancelo xD

  15. lifes a pitch
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Rashford or Maddison for next few gw's?

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Madds

  16. Parsnips
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is anyone looking at Sterling instead of Gundogan??

    1. Parsnips
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      As replacements for KDB

    2. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah I’ve considered it for the first time tonight. Will have a think tomorrow.

    3. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn’t having looked at Sterling’s recent form (eye test and stats over the entire season)

      The only stats others will mention are historical ones where he was in much better form when playing without KDB, so I wouldn’t put too much weight on that. Also his record vs the relegation type clubs historically was great when he had form.

      I much prefer Gundo given his form and high potential of being on Pens- I would only caveat the risk with Gundo of potentially playing deeper with KDB out, but we shall find out soon

      1. Parsnips
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ok thanks a lot!

    4. OleBall
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Raheem has huge potential imo

    5. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I want Kane so not for me..

  17. RubeRx
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    KDB to Foden seems pretty straightforward to me, was kinda hoping he would stay quiet tonight

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He played 90 today with B team. Not certain to start.

    2. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      There’s a chance of rotation with Foden especially as he played the entire game

    3. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yep, most creative player & most goals this season also, but keep it quiet 😉

  18. ZimZalabim
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Gundo came through unscathed tonight didn't he ?

    So shd I do Kdb to Gundo tonight to catch the rise and avoid the drop

    will wait on vardy to Kane till after Kane has played

    or shd I wait on both moves ?

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Only if you need the funds for something else- otherwise I’d say it’s safer to wait given the unpredictable events of this season

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        cheers mate

        giving me some good advice today. Appreciate it.

        1. rubberdignerapids
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          No worries.

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

      Just hold until last minute. Such a huge downgrade (price wise) doesn’t need to be rushed over 0.2.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers will wait till Tuesday.

        Its just when u open fplstats and see the player ur buying is going up and the one ur selling is going down u get itchy fingers. got to avoid looking at price movement.

  19. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Between:

    A) Cancelo + Rashford (-4)
    Or
    B) Gundogan + Maddison

    Want them till gw24

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B just because of the hit and Rashy looking awful atm

    3. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    4. OleBall
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Cancelo + Maddy?

      1. Shark Team
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Then it will be between Cancelo(-4) or Gundogan. And I know it's close...

  20. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    G2G for next week?

    McCarthy
    Robbo Dias Dallas Cresswell
    Salah Bruno(C) Gundo Soucek
    Bamford Antonio

    Forster Mitchel Vardy* Anguissa

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yup

  21. egan
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Son (v LFC) or Soucek (vs Palace) or Wilson (vs Leeds) for this GW?

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sonaldo

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You would be the first person probably in history to bench Son

    3. kennethrhcp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      You could do Raph to Gundo if you can afford it

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Love gundo and can but Newcastle are awful... last chance for Raph 🙂

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Tempted by that Yh mate. Or downgrade to Watkins

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Keep up the good work. Ya I'd save. Reassess next week with 2

    Losing my cup duel 117 to 118 is so cruel 🙁

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years

      Unlucky my friend

    2. kennethrhcp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's just unlucky!

      You know somewhere there's a lad going through 60-59

      Thanks guys
      With Martinez vs Watkins i knew i was out with that first goal,but i just hoped for those 2 additional saves that never came

    Kdb to :

    Foden
    Gundo
    Rashford

    Current midfield : grealish, son, bruno, saka, kdb

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Gundo from that selection

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This

    2. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Foden here

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rash

  25. The FPL Units
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Finally cracked the top million. Was 5mil odd after GW7 so steady progress. Hope to accelerate now. Have all chips available.

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Well done

  26. Ohh1454
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bamford (3-4-3) or madisson (3-5-2) ?

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      343 i reckon

    2. JJO
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Tough one
      I prefer midfielders and 3-5-2
      But both good options

  27. marcos11
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Which of these trios?

    a) Salah/ESR/Antonio
    b) Sterling/Grealish/Brewster

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

    3. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A because Brewster is garbage

    4. marcos11
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Pretty comprehensive, thanks!

    5. JJO
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A surely

  28. Jimmy Boy
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Grealish or Maddison? (for my FPL team, not the Euros)

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      haha grealish maybe because of extra games

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      G

    3. kennethrhcp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Grealish to save planning when dgws pop up

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

      Prefer Grealish, even without the double(s)

    5. JJO
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Both good options
      Maybe Grealish cause he is more focal for theirs attacks
      Not sure about fixtures though,havent checked it

    6. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Grealish- better player with a bigger upside (especially since Vardy out diminishes Madd’s return potential based on historical data)

      The only caveat would for the next few games be Grealish on the yellow card tightrope, but I think the risk is worthwhile

    7. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Grealish in both cases

  29. DangerFC
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone know when the next DGW or blank is likely?

    1. kennethrhcp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Think I read 25/26 and 29 likely

        Cheers bud. Great bit of info

  30. g40steve

    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on,

    A Robbo to Justin, Shaw or Maguire ( Maguire is low owned)

    Bruno C or go crazy with Foden?

    Martinez
    Robertson, Stones, Dias
    Bruno, Son, Foden, Salah
    Kane, Bamford, Watkins

    Johnson, Soucek, Coufal, Mitchell

    1.5

    1. rubberdignerapids
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Bruno will be the runaway captain pick this week, so it’s whether you go with the herd or find a differential

      Is robbo for free? If so I’d probably go for Maguire from that lot seeing as Sheffield are incapable of anything vs strong opposition
