Very tempted to take a hit to go Mane, Mitro to Sane, Lacazette.

You could have KDB for just 0.5m more if you wait, Sané isn't worth it now Mendy is back.

He's a banker for my team at that price. Straight swap for Mané too. If Mané looks like dropping I'm going ahead with it.

Would you be Liverpool-less then or still have Salah?

There were reports of him being involved in full team training before the last game so could play in the next game as he will get two more weeks of training before it. No guarantee he will start though, could be eased back in. My transfers over the past two weeks were with a view to building funds for Bilva to KdB, I will likely do that unless some bad news emerges on KdB between now and then.

Is KDB actually that good of an FPL asset, especially at that price? (He asks having just fallen 350k in the last GW :pac:)

Kane to Augero
Firminho to Lacazette done

Tempted to bring in Hazard too for Mane (who looks like a must have ATM)
Taughts ??
Will need to take a -4 point hit to get him in

I’ll be bringing Firmino in and possibly Mane the following week! They have Huddersfield away and Cardiff at home, literally the two easiest fixtures you could have

Going to keep Mane for another couple of weeks. He's gotten me SFA since I got him in. But those upcoming fixtures

I’m hoping hazard and salah form respectively makes people hesitant so I can regain the ground lost
Or sink further ....

IF you'd the b@lls to go without the main captain choice each week (Sergio "I come off at 60" Aguero, Harry "I'm now an attacking midfielder" Kane, and Mo "not last season" Salah), you'd have a lovely big defense/midfield to play with:

Ederson
Alonso Mendy Robertson Doherty (AWB)
DeBruyne Hazard Mane Richarlison (Ward)
Lacazette Arnoutovic (Ings)

He will end the season on a surprisingly high amount of points.

What he offers is consistency is a very unpredictable world. He is a near guaranteed way in to City's team in a world of rotation. He's just too good to rotate and he missed very few minutes last season. He'll chip away with consistent assists and the odd goal.

What he doesn't offer is an explosive captain option. He doesn't have the huge hauls that Aguero or Salah have in them. Or at least it's much harder to predict when his double figure hauls will come. He may occasionally play a little further back in midfield too, curtailing his ability to score big points. If you are of the thought process that your premium midfielders have to be captain options, then he's one to avoid probably.

In fact, I'm sure that if captaincy wasn't a thing, KDB would've been in far more teams last season.

He's def one to watch this season however, with Sterling now too expensive (imo) and most of the of the midfield options being rotation risks. I'll be interested to see how / where he's playing when he comes back, he could definitely end up being worth it now that he's dropped a bit but I don't think he's essential
