Incredible how the tightest of margins can change a game

Biggest oversight on so many people's part at the start of ths season.

His resting midweek shows the Pep wants him primed for the PL.

I'm not sure it was. Sterling has comfortably outscored aguero the last 2 seasons. The sane injury made sterling even more nailed on. Aguero is now over 30 and will need more resting than sterling. Jesus will get gametime as Pep will want to keep him happy. Id love aguero this gw as he is the best captain option as there are some doubts about sterling starting but long term Id still prefer sterling especially when you consider the amount of good mid price striker options we have this year compared to last barnes, pukki, haller, Abraham, wilson. Of course there is an arguement for having both aguero and sterling but then what about kdb. Aguero seems a better option than sterling right now but I dont think he did at the start of the season and I'm not convinced he will be after another 6 weeks.

You say that Sterling comfortably outscored Aguero last season - did he though?

Sterling 2770 mins 234 points = roughly 0.084 points per minute
Aguero 2457 mins 201 points = roughly 0.082 points per minute

When you consider that Sterling gets the clean sheet points and played more minutes, he's not comfortably outscoring him.

Folk have been saying that Jesus will get more minutes for a couple of seasons now - it's clear that Pep doesn't trust him that much, City are already 5 points behind Liverpool, city can't afford to continuously slip up and so the best team will be played. Sterling has equally as much chance coming off and be protected when they are 3-0 up as Aguero does. Pep would probably want to keep Phil Foden happy but that doesn't mean he throws his on when they are winning 4-0 against Brighton for instance

If you were to ignore the first game of the season, would you still think that Sterling would be so highly owned? Sterling's ownership is over 1.5x that of Aguero which is mind blowing, giving that he has only return one monster score so far this season. Aguero has scored in every game and had 2 double digit scores. Salah/Mane/KdB/even Dilva all have more double digit scores than Sterling has. His form per FF rules is 3.2 points.

Sterling could score big but his returns bar the first game of the season have actually been poor when presented with the facts.

He tends to stay off if he doesn't start. But Pep.

Sterling(c) benched just when I thought this disastrous start to a fpl season couldn’t get any worse!

Ah eff off Pep!!
