Will assess then if it's too suicidal a strategy. I keep Kelly hoping he's not out for 6 months (I can afford a £0.1m loss). Defense will be rotated possibly with midfield too going for 4-3-3 if better. Should I definitely give up option 2 ?

He starts every game, he has scored 20+ goals in each of the last 5 seasons. City can't afford to drop more points so he will be central to their team. Compare Aguero to Sterling - he got a hattrick in GW1, and since then has only got 2 goals - blank against Brighton and now Norwich. City won't be keeping CS with LaPorte out, so the extra point for CS will probably be gone. Sterling costs more and is return less. I can understand the logic of having both Sterling and Aguero, but if only going for one, I think he has to be King Kun. Mane/Salah - it's have one and just stick with it for the season. Personally I'm not sold on pool defenders value, Matip is probably the best value of the pool defenders, but when they aren't keeping clean sheets, i don't know why you would have 6.5m tied up in VVD. Son will be a good shout - and probably priced fairly - given how deep Kane is playing, he's going to be scoring less, so someone else has to step up and looks to be Son.

City won't be keeping CS with LaPorte out, so the extra point for CS will probably be gone. Sterling costs more and is return less. Can't agree on the clean sheets. City have home games coming up against Watford, Wolves, Villa and Southampton plus CP away, even without Laporte they will likely keep a few clean sheets. They will dominate possession in these games and are less likely to get caught out after the kick in the hole they got from Norwich. I'd say there's 3 extra cs points for Sterling in those games.
