Dugout Discussion – Man City vs Leicester

Saturday’s events conclude at the Etihad Stadium where the champions-elect Manchester City host Leicester City.

Fantasy managers will of course be focused on the home side’s attacking assets, with Sergio Aguero backed by 778,000 (13.5%) with the captaincy, including 26 of the top 100 – second only to Mohamed Salah (50).

The Argentine goes into this game with seven goals in his last four home Premier League matches and 10 in his last six in all competitions.

Kevin De Bruyne (3.8%) and Raheem Sterling (2.5%) are also among the top seven captaincy picks for the Gameweek and also boast exceptional records on home turf. De Bruyne has scored 33 points from his previous four, while Sterling has produced 37.

The City defence has been less productive, with just one clean sheet from their last five Gameweeks. Nicolas Otamendi – the top owned defender in the game (31.3%), starts his 15th successive match in all competitions today.

Leicester will be buoyed by City’s defensive record. They recall Riyad Mahrez to the bench after his recent absence following City’s deadline day bid. That leaves Jamie Vardy as perhaps their most likely source of Fantasy returns – he boasts goals in each of his last three Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    What should one think of owning aguero but not captaining?? I wasn't even close to choosing him after last week and nearly sold him.

      You should think of those who don't own him.

        Sorry! Lot of my league captained him so not exactly enjoyable here either but I feel for those who don't, particularly those who sold

    Just wondering if anyone else captained Aguero? Don’t see much mention of him on here

        Unlucky. Hazard could still do ok and aguero got you a lot of points either way

    3. MTPockets
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Owners just nod along to captaining Wilson.

          My plan was to sell him after this game but not sure I can now. Anyone sold after such a high score? Maybe I’ll hold until Jesus is back

    4. Kun Tozser
      • 9 Years

      Kun > Kane next week or downgrade Hazard and Alonso to have both up top?

      1. gunner 2727
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        And so it begins! My plan was to ship him for Kane... no idea now

        1. Kun Tozser
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Fixtures, CL and Jesus and it all just seemed like the perfect time to say thanks

            • 13 Years
            6 years, 9 months ago

            That's where I'm at. Won't ship this week, but he's pretty close to the door. Depends on what kind of form Jesus is at really

      2. Cityzen Kane
        • 7 Years

      Non Aguero owner.

      Ranked 3k after 15 straight green arrows. FFix have me projected to drop to 23k πŸ˜†

        I feel your pain, I have just lost my lead in mini league, was ahead by 4 points but will be about 35 behind now, don't want to even think about my OR ! Really need Wilson, Firmino and Alonso to produce the goods big time. Lesson learnt.

      3. arndff_

        Feel you, mate. Red arrow's coming for me too.

          • 10 Years
