    Who is furthest forward there.

    Cancelo Stones and Dias playing a lot of games straight in the league. No wonder as it has been working.

    Fotmob have De Bruyne furthest but could be Silva.

    Played Gundog over Saka... delighted with Peps selection for once.

    Think it will be similar to the Chelsea game where KDB is probably the furthest forward of the central players,almost playing as a centre forward, with Foden and Mahrez wide, but would expect to see Gundo making a lot of runs into that central space too.

    Really rough on Sterling owners, I thought he'd start and strongly considered him. Only didn't include him in the end as I was worried about having too weak a bench in the current climate

    Just said the same, I held him for weeks on end..

    At least my 3 City FH players start and I won on Pepe Roulette for a change, Cancel, KDB and Gundogan.

    Have Bernardo from Brighton as my 10th player here, expecting a 0 or minus score from him to be fair though

    Captained Sterling.

    I may write a thesis on how much of a cluster fúck a season can be.

    I did not FH thought not worth it with 7 plus Brewster.

    That -12 I was going to take if Sterling was not passed fit looks like the move I should have made. This City game looks very cagey one for the defences. 'Shoulda, woulda, coulda' the three best fantasy football players in history. Very consistent!

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    He has been the only one who has looked a real threat so far. Cancelo getting forward a lot as well I suppose.

    The more this game stays tight the more I am hopeful of Sterling getting an earlier run and Mahrez/Foden getting hooked.
    Maybe even half time?

    The gamble on those who went with Foden has paid off.

    Mainly poor finishing. City have not been scoring well in majority of games.

    Wouldn't you think they would have found a top striker 'on the cheap' because of covid19 and other teams football finances?

    Haller went to Ajax for 22m.

    Not sure what do you mean by cheap, but don't think so.

    Don't know how easy that would be even for city - any striker going there will want to get top dollar, and how many will be happy to be rotated.

    I am happy with just assist from the captain so far.

    The way this is going it could still be best pick this week.

    Foden looking good. Need to work on either staying up on ground or fall more dramatically :)
