    I'm thinking about moving him on as well. David Silva will be taking half the pie when he returns.

    Silva <10 looks pretty interesting now too.

    Sterling running very fast again today. He'll run into a couple of points throughout the season.

    Bale cost how much and he's no right foot

    Bale has half a football brain though in fairness.

    I have a bad feeling about this game

    Was depending on City -2 in an accumulator too

    Stop it.
    Bale >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sterling


    Anyway, yellow for Otamendi. A Villa goal would be beautiful!

    Ah come on now! If Bale literally had no right foot he would still be better!

    I don't think Sterling will ever have the qualities that will match anywhere near Bale's peak at Tottenham.

    I'd never make that sort of bet against a new manager tbh. First thing any manager worth his salt inheriting a struggling team will do is make them hard to beat.

    I'd take a 1-0 KDB goal at this rate. Looks like it could end 0-0 though!

    It's not over yet, but there's been some ridiculous instances of bad luck against managers this week:

    - Mahrez giving up the penalty to Vardy
    - Butland going HAM when in reality he should have been sent off
    - Bony and Payet off early injured

    It's been a while since I've seen a week like this when so many close decisions will have gone against so many. It's probably the worst week for it to happen too considering that a small increase in points is likely to lead to a decent rise.

    one good ball and that's it
    I resisted him until last week and he won't be in my team much longer
    can't justify 10.5 ml on him

    Both players cannot use their weaker foot for anything other than standing on. Shameful for professional footballers having no confidence in their weaker foot. Having a threat off your weaker side is so important imo

    I know one is better than the other and I wasnt defending Sterling in any way shape or form

    Yep shouldn't have done it, 4 other teams came in and Roma(winning) and Barca were the other two.

    You get the feeling if City get one they will get more though

    HT BPS for those that are interested in that sort of thing:

    13 Gil
    12 Kompany
    10 Otamendi
    9 Sanchez
    8 Yaya

    Super Kol is on 4 and KDB is on 5.

    Did Butland make a dodgey challenge or are you talking about Remy's jump over him and then losing his footing?

    Fair play to Remy not going down and looking for it,
    but even if there had to have been contact and a penalty was given a yellow for Butland would have been overkill.

    I'll be keeping him, I expect more points from he's got Aguero to supply.
