Dier yellow.

14 points for captain Aguero so far, had he scored that he'd have been on 26 pts pre-bonus. This game is a cruel mistress. Still fancy him to atone for that miss though.

Same here, have faith though!

Capt Aguero losing me points with that miss in both FPL and Ultimate, but Lloris is my GK in Ultimate so some solace there

dahat

Aguero scores two and is my captain, feel strangely deflates though. Odd how a pen miss changes so much.

TacT

league leader has aguero (c) so I'm hoping he doesn't go mad. I do have him in myself too but armband is on di maria :eek:

I'd have taken 14 points after 45mins.... But 26... 26

God I'm glad I have kun already. Some serious chopping of teams to get him in next week I'd say.

Necronomicon

By my reading Aguero is still on for 3 BPs despite the penalty miss, is that right?

Aguero 38
Eriksen 27
Lloris 23

The penalty miss will still count a shot on target so won't do too much damage regards bonus points

ye the midfield template will have to be ripped up by a lot of people. Good for the game IMO.

Correct but a long time left and his other misses (like pen rebound) wont be included till after the match ends

If it finishes as is then I think he'd be a cert for 3 points. The winning goal bps has yet to kick in too.
Hopefully he'll get another few winning goals

Harvey Low Fat Milk

Aguero is on fire, could've had 2 or 3 against Villa and should have 4 today in the first half alone. That missed penalty hurts but I reckon there's another goal in it for him in the second half, missing out on the Silva assist was a real kick in the teeth.

Ye Im pissed off now. Have silva aswell so couldve been on 39 from 2 at half time.

Ziegler1988

Wow, Aguero looks good. Glad I stuck by my guns three weeks ago to wildcard him and ADM in. Welbeck (c) Aguero (vc) so penalty miss didn't hurt as much as others

The way Spurs are defending there's a good chance he'll still get 26. Hope he doesn't lose penalties to Yaya now though.

Paully D

Silva looks really, really good too. His runs off Aguero are superb and he's excellent at finding those little pockets of space. Obviously very unlucky not to have an assist too.

Lemlin

Strange that City let him take a second one. They used to rotate if there was a second peno in a game.

Yaya and Tevez have both taken second penos in a game in the past while Aguero was still on.

Easily one of the best players on the pitch and in the league, only thing is that he's probably the best player in the league for assisting the assist. Not that he doesn't get the assists but he's so heavily involved with how City play that he often starts an attacking move rather than finishing them off.

Ive had silva since GW3 and its been nothing but heartbreak. He has been so close to double digits in nearly every game and has been class. Just not getting the FF points.

SlickRic

That miss takes some shine off, but i'd have still take that Aguero points haul at the start of the day.

Delighted to have captained Aguero over Costa this week given ive captained the latter almost ever other week. Feels great to be able to relax for the weekend now knowing my captain has done well. Hope i don't jinx him now!

A peno miss later...


Hmm... How to revert that? Aguero is so crap, can't score 2 penos in a row. He's really useless. The guy just can't get a hat-trick. Costa can, even when "injured". Aguero's so much overrated and overpriced in this game. Should have sold him for Falcao. Can't wait for Rooney to be back to make the switch. That should be enough counterjinxing, right? :pac:

Lampard went off before the peno, Yaya on the bench, no other striker on. Not a big surprise

Id recommend taking a look @ fantasyfootballfix.com

He was on pens earlier in the season with Yaya on the pitch?

FutureGuy

Trrew a tenner on Aguero two or more score and just hope Costa, Pelle and Welbeck do the business.

Collymore just tweeted that Costa isn't on the Chelsea team bus.

Be interesting to see how Chelsea cope without Diego Costa today. Not in the squad.

No Costa means Ulloa is coming off the bench for me. Could work out nicely.

KevIRL

Obertan now is your time :pac:

Copper_pipe

George Boyd do me proud!

km79

I am really really beginning to dislike Costa!

Paully D

Aguero as captain it is then. van Aanholt comes on as my first sub. Come on now Sergio, bag another!

basillarkin

Augero should have had about 100 points by now

Nib

This could yet be the ultimate Mourinho troll.

SlickRic

This is a day when the casuals with a shít subs bench could suffer.

Aguero looks different physically this season, less bulk..... nadal did it to cut out injuries and looks like aguero has too

manual_man

I'm now pronouncing that my decision to Vice captain Ivanovic is genius as he's surely going to replace Costa up front :pac:

dahat

Would have prefered a cameo for Costa tbh to rule out the Aguero vc people.
