Community: Gameweek 12 Preview
Raheem Sterling takes the headlines for the Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 12 preview.
The Manchester City midfielder is the main talking point in the Gameweek 12 preview across the community.
1. Hopcroft
Mo Salah was the standout FPL player last season, but should it Sterling who hogs the funds in the midfield this time around? Adam Hopcroft compares the two for the Gameweek 12 preview, with a suggested move after the International Break.
Is Sterling this season's Salah?

4. Andy
Sergio Aguero may be less than convincing when it comes down to away fixtures, but the potential is there with West Ham and Watford coming up next. Let’s Talk FPL’s Andy thinks that it could be time for a resurgence.
Aguero's poor away form is no different to Salah being "out of form" after playing 3 top 6 sides in 4 weeks.
West Ham and Watford the next 2 away games for City.
Reckon he may "return to form" like Salah did against the big dogs Cardiff.

7. Tinkermen
The right hand side of the Fulham defence is significantly weak, so the Tinkermen have tipped Robertson and Mane to perform well this weekend. Could this statistic favour giving Mane the armband over the consistent Salah?
Fulham concede more crosses and chances down their right flank. Coupled with TFM lack of tackles and interceptions it could be a game for Mane and Robertson to exploit Fulham's right hand side pic.twitter.com/mR2jLDhvSb

9. Dinnery
Richarlison has been a popular transfer in for the Gameweek 12 preview, after a handy brace against Brighton this weekend. He is a slight doubt going into the Chelsea match though, with more news likely closer to the deadline.
Richarlison to be checked. "He played the second half with pain in his foot and there is a chance tomorrow it will be worse," Marco Silva said after the Brazilian's two-goal haul. “He is always ready to play and fight and give us good things on the pitch." #EFC

10. Prince
Mitrovic is the most sold player going into the Gameweek 12 preview, following disappointing returns in his last few matches. FPL Prince considers a number of replacements you could consider for this weekend.
Best Mitrovic replacements:
1. Arnautovic: Without doubt the best option and great fixtures
2. Wilson: Tricky fixtures but in good form…
3. Murray: Some okay fixtures but tends to only score at home
4. Jiminez: Some tricky fixtures but excellent value for the price#FPL
