Technical Area – The Man City Midfield

Through the first two months of the season, no side has scored more frequently than Manchester City.

In their second season under Pep Guardiola’s tutelage, City have averaged more than three goals per match to open this campaign and already look to be mounting the strongest title challenge on show.

With Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus as options in attack, we are blessed with two obvious routes to investment. However, reading Pep Guardiola’s intentions with the pair remains a test, made all the more difficult by the news of Aguero’s return to light training following his rib injury.

Just as Gabriel Jesus seemed cemented in the central attacking role, suddenly Aguero’s return seems more imminent, casting further doubts on the likely minutes of the pair over forthcoming Gameweeks.

So, instead, our attentions are drawn to City’s midfield in an effort to achieve coverage of this potent attacking unit while we wait for the striker situation to resolve.

In this article, we’ll be running the rule over three mid-priced Manchester City midfield options – David Silva, Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling – alongside the more expensive Kevin De Bruyne, in an effort to ascertain where best to seek value from this side over the coming Gameweeks.

    Weird thing happened yesterday (making my wildcard even worse, which looked unlikely).

    Thought I needed to get Hazard in, in case he randomly rose. Saw Lacazette in my team, transferred him out to a 4.5 to get the funds. Went through. Then today woke up and realized I haven't had Laca for more than a week, since I got in Vardy for him.

    Now I've lost Vardy's rise and I have to get him back in at 8.6.

    Why the deuce does FPL let me do that transfer with an old browser window, even writing that it is in fact Laca I am selling?

        It's true! I've god Ladapo and no Vardy, after having had Vardy for a week.

        100% sure it was Lacazette I transferred out (obviously never would have lost Vardy)

      Why on Earth is that FPL's problem?

      You have list view, just like the rest of us. That is a rookie error, and you are a very experienced player.

      It's a terrible flaw on their backend and likely a scenario that their programmers have failed to think about.. I feel for you.

      To be fair to him he has been very consistent this season with not to many surprises

    Best 4.5-4.6 defender not playing for Burnley

    1. Lazaretti

      Naughton / Clark / Simpson

  5. dan_247

    Wild card thoughts please. Not a massive fan of having Abraham and have 0.4 itb. Changes needed or good to go?

    Fab/Elliott
    Mee Otamendi, Cedric, Luiz, Clark
    Sterling, Hazard, Eriksen, TC, RLC
    Kane, Jesus, Joselu

  6. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

    So, Jesus scored 2 last night but clearly played 90 minutes. Decisions decisions.

    1. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Scored 2 very easy ones...don't think this season he actually scored a goal he created himself...I remember tap ins and and a couple thanks to aguero

      1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Goals are goals? Who cares?

    2. Ambrosiana Inter

      Then ehi a goal is always a goal but

  7. tattywelshie
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    So my WC midfield looks like this.

    RLC / Silva / Cout / Richarl / Choupo

    But am wondering about about going double city midfield, with this in mind which is best?

    A. Coutinho
    B. Sterling

    1. OldBenKenobi
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Just keep Coutinho

    2. Gegenpress
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      That's the same as mine, BUT I have sterling instead of Silva

    3. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      A

    4. dimitros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Keep Coutinho and decide between Sterling/Silva

  8. RIDZ
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Walker or Otamendi is enough?

    1. LC1
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Enough what?

    2. kysersosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Think it depend on you else from Man City you have. Im thinking the same and dropping Sterling for Walker, leaving me with Jesus, Silva and Walker.

      If you have Sterling/Silva/Jesus Otamendi is enough.

      1. RIDZ
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Already have Silva and gonna buy Jesus. Not really interested with Otamendi, think on Walker would give at least an assist.

        1. kysersosa
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Problem with Man city is KDB, Sterling, Sane, Silva are all likely to give you an assist. Don't think paying 0.8 is worth risking just for an assist. Ot, also the cheapest way into Man city defence - likely to go up in price.

  9. kysersosa
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Those thinking of Hazard, I assume you're also thinking of a Chelsea Def as well?

    What are your thoughts when Morata comes back? Don't think you can have all 3 without missing out on other key players.

    1. Lazaretti
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      You will anyway miss some key players. Aguero / Kane / Lukaku / Morata / Hazard / Eriksen / Silva / Wing backs.. just can't have them all.

      I would pick Hazard and CHE def. Atm I have Alonso.

  10. LC1

    6 years, 6 months ago

    Would massively appreciate some feedback please.

    How's this for WC team guys?

    Fabianksi Elliot
    Rosenior Clark Davies Cedric Ward
    Silva Coutinho Sterling Gross 4.4
    Vardy Kane Lukaku

    I appreciate I don't have many big hitting defenders but want a strong front 6.

    Any suggestions are much appreciated!

    Thank you in advance..

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      It's not too bad considering the defense.

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I know the defence isn't the strongest but I think Davies Clark Cedric and Ward are good enough coverage.

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Look at defenders points so far. Why on earth would you have week defenders when they are scoring as well as mids and forwards?

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I don't think they're necessarily weak.. just only 1 big hitter as apposed to 2 or 3.
        What do you suggest?

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          It's not the weakness - it is the lack of thought. You're goalies don't rotate very well - and get worse. You have Rosenior instead of Dunk, or even Suttner - we don't yet know why Suttner was out of the last one - and Clark is not necessarily the pick over Mbemba, who has more minutes than the aforementioned Rosenior.. So you have pushed it too far.

          1. LC1
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            I feel like a school kid being told off lol.

            But thank you for your feedback.

            Rosenior is a bench fodder, I know that he won't get minutes and I can't afford the extra .4/5 for Dunk or Suttner.

            Clark has played 90mins every week whereas I believe Mbemba is a rotation risk, but I see your point in having him over Rosenior.

            HUD, PAL, bur, BRI, bur, WAT - Isn't particularly bad.

            Which rotating GKs do you suggest?

            Thank you again for your feedback.

              No problem. Sorry - that came out a bit strong.

              Here are the cheap options, but I haven't done Elliot/Begovic, who have 6 light blues before Christmas.

                6 years, 6 months ago

                The two strongest performers may be Lascelles and Duffy, and I myself am almost certainly doubling up. My go-to option for 0.5 is indeed Mbemba, who I have currently as a precaution, in case he rises, and some other feller comes back injured.

        2. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Let us take Coutinho downgrade to Fab level. Gives you 2 Mil upgrade defense. Maybe better spread money. Especially with City Chelsea games coming up.

          1. LC1
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Good shout. Thanks mate.

            1. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              Sorry if we are being a bit harsh with our viewpoints. Just saying the art of the game is flexibility and points per million outside of captaincy options.

              1. LC1
                • 9 Years
                6 years, 6 months ago

                Not harsh at all, better to be honest rather than beat around the bush.

                Aiming to downgrade Coutinho but the options at 7mil(ish) are abysmal.

              2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 14 Years
                6 years, 6 months ago

                - but Coutinho is IDEAL for GW 10.

                I don't think that you can afford Vardy. Rashford? Then buy Welbeck, GW 10?

                1. LC1
                  • 9 Years
                  6 years, 6 months ago

                  I think you're right.
                  It may be that I bite the bullet and get a 4.5 striker and play 2 up top and spread money across the team?

    3. kysersosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      If your not prepared to improve your defence then team is 8/10, you could do with Chelsea cover.

      Overall 5-6/10 Nothing has happened this season to suggest less money in defence is the way forward. I would:

      Lukaku to Jesus
      Rosenior to Luiz

      This would give you a starting 11 of

      Fabs
      Luiz, Bavies, Cedric, Ward
      Silva, Cout, Sterling
      Jesus, Kane, Vardy

      (Elliot, Clarke, Gross, 4.4)

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Thank you for your advice.. I know getting Jesus for Lukaku would benefit my team but I'm reluctant and biased being a United fan I suppose.

        Cheers for your feedback.

        1. Eze Really?

    4. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Just the defence to think about. Keepers are fine, I don't like Groß he's a trap. Brighton are a team that are going down so I'd avoid their defence and mid. They just not that good

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Cool, thanks mate.

    5. Squashed
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      gk. either fab or pope doesnt matter.

      i would prefer yoshi then cedric.
      defense is good to go tbh.
      so if you are playing 433
      rosenior can sit there.

      get slightly better playing mid.
      gross out for a 4.5(cork? t.Carroll?)

      kaku out for jesus.

      how much will u have left itb?

      1. LC1
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        2.1 ITB If I bring in another 4.5 mid and Kaku > Jesus.

        1. Squashed
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          taking out that 4.4 mid you will have 6.5 to get say richar at 6.1
          and 2gws later u can play 343. leaving a playing defender on the bench.

          by then you would hve 2ft. - as long as no one ends up with a broken leg hip or sat in a cab....

          or alternatively you can get hazard in place of cout.
          or
          bank in the money and wait on kaku performance and get him back in gw11/12

  13. jia you
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    I'm finiding it very funny that managers on here are not getting Jesus, or considering him a bad pick now, based on the fact that he's played 90mins twice for Brazil. But no mention of the fact that he's just scored a brace against a decent Chile side!

      If your willing to take the risk of a 1 point cameo than fine. It's not a bad thing that some of us are worried about it. There is a very good chance. Maybe we have learned ,

      3 games in 6 days, including a very important one vs napoli and a long journey with jet lag included should worry folk. Not saying he will be rested but can you see him playing 90 mins? Come on

    Potential WC, thoughts? Playing 3-4-4

    Eliot / Krul

    Danilo / Alonso / Davies / Naughton / 4.0

    Coutinho / Richarlison / Rithcie / Chuopo-Moting / Caroll

    Kane / Jesus / Lukaku

    1. Live Lad

      Like everyone except Danilo.
      Jesus can become Morata soon.

  15. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Can't afford Morata to Kane. I am willing to sell Kaku but need to sort out Morata too. Running out of ideas. So, listing my players..

    Fab, Elliot
    Kola, Davies, Otamendi, Morgan, Mbemba
    Eriksen, Mkhi, Brady, Ritchie, Carroll
    Kaku, Morata, Firmino

    1 FT, 1.6 itb
    Would have done Kaku + Morata to Kane + Jesus (-4) if Kun didn't seem like coming back.
    Please help! Please!

      2 arsenal defenders? No Chelsea players? One City player?

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        It's not a wc team mate. My double ARS defence was a 4 GW punt which is working out so far. Kola/Bell will go in the shorterm for a a CHE/City defender.

        1. Gegenpress
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          My bad! I thought it was a WC team

            • 7 Years

            Haha, was thinking you might have thought that alright and I don't blame you as the place is awash with em 😉

              Trust me! I'm on full Wildcard mode at the moment with the below:

              Pope Elliot

              Mbemba Alonso Luiz Ward Cedric

              Sterling Coutinho Richarlison Choupo-Moting RLC

                • 7 Years

                At least it's a little bit different (with Cout & Sterling as your two main mids) from most of the bland wc teams I'm seeing. The CHE double up is brave and could be gold. GL.

  18. OldBenKenobi

    Really debating whether to do Firmino > Jesus for -4

    I already have Salah and don't have any City players.

    The I nly thing holding me back is I'm planning getting on Morata the following week instead and maybe doing Eriksen > Silva

    Thoughts?

    1. OldBenKenobi

      Only*

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS

      Yes I would.

      1. OldBenKenobi
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Was going to give Firmino another chance but with Mane out I'm really not confident

        1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          You have Salah sir, get that light blue shirt in your team asap.

          It will match your wand.

      How much are you left with if you do Morata>Kane?

      Enough to do Mky>Sterling?

      1. Live Lad
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks a lot. I would love to but have 7.7 only. Open to do a -4.

    Elliot (Foster)
    Jones Cedric Mee (Naughton Wimmer)
    Alli Salah Mahrez Brady (Carroll)
    Kane (C) Lukaku Joselu

    2 FT £1.5 ITB

    Thinking Mahrez>Sterling and Jones>Walker

    Would allow Brady>Richarlison in a couple of weeks provided he only increases by 0.1m between now and then

    One other option is just do Mahrez>Sterling which would allow the option of Alli>Hazard next week.

    Thoughts?

  22. built_this_city

    Looks like today is the day where I decide if Im keeping or selling Morata - has there been any news on him ?

    1. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      FPL says 50% fit to play

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        With Roma looming it is highly unlikely.

    2. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Won't play and will drop in price

    3. Bird Raymond
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I've accepted he won't play and will drop in price, the more drops the better now until I get him in!

  23. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Daniels +4 pts or city/arsenal def?

  24. Gegenpress
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Please rate my Wild Card Team!

    Pope Elliot

    Mbemba Alonso Luiz Ward Cedric

    Sterling Coutinho Richarlison Choupo-Moting RLC

    Vardy Jesus Kane

    The team above also gives me the flexibility to play 3-4-3 as well as 4-3-3.

    Any changes you would make? I've tried to get in as many city and chelsea players as I could afford! Would love to get Hazard in too! I can downgrade Alonso to Otanmendi and get Hazard instead of Coutinho, but then no Liverpool cover

    1. FER FUSCH AKE
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      double Chelsea def is a no no, especially with kante out.

      1. Gegenpress
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        How long is Kante out for?

      2. jia you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Yoko & Sideshow Bob show provide plenty of DM cover in Kante's absence, although he'll def be missed!

      3. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years

        its crystal palace dude. definitely a clean sheet.

  25. dashdriver
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Could really need some advice ATM.

    Current team is:
    Pickford / Elliot
    Davies / Kolasinac / Bertrand / Wimmer / Gàmez
    Eriksen / Mkhitaryan / GroB / Can / Carroll
    Kane / Lukaku / Firmino

    With zip in the bank i can no longer do the straight swap from Mkhi to Silva, but I feel there are more pressing problems with my two Liverpool-players and Gàmez of course who doesn't seem to play at all. What would you guys do? Only 1 FT.

    1. Kushal
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Firmino mkhi > vardy sterling Or just mkhi > sterling
      Given you already have lukaku

      1. dashdriver
        • 8 Years

    Alli, Mkhi, DCL to Richarlison, Choupo-Moting, Kane for -8?

    Any other ideas?

  27. Cabellafan
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Have to transfer out Kola if hes injured and I have no bench cover. Best replacement?
    A) Davies (rotation risk with Rose coming back?)
    B) Luiz (is he going to play?)
    C) Cedric (descent crosser but plays in a dry team with few goals in them I think)
    D) Cresswell (believe in this guy)

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Where is the injury news coming from?

      1. Cabellafan
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        He was subbed at half time yesterday. Some say hes injured some says it was tactical

        1. Pasqualinho
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Some say he never blinks, and that he roams around the woods at night foraging for wolves.

        2. Ghost Gooner
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Rather wait for training pics or the presser. That rumour came from a Spurs fan's tweet. I have Kola as well but I won't take him out as I can use a bench player

    2. jia you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      The injury is just a rumour started by a Spurs fan by all accounts, dismiss.

    3. Cabellafan

      Haha

    good to go Wildcard team?

    Pope - Elliot
    Alonso - Davies - Otamendi - Cedric - Mbemba
    Coutinho - Sterling - Richarlison - Choupo-Moting - RLC
    Kane - G.Jesus - Vardy

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years

      I like it. Very similar to mine. Cedric>Jones possible?

      1. LewanGOALski
        • 12 Years

        nope, no cash itb

    2. ShaunGoater123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      very nice team.

      Only thing is missing United, but can't have it all.

    3. Cabellafan
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Nice, but do You have a plan to get Aguero or Morata when they are back?

    4. built_this_city
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I'd have Lukaku over Vardy and Jesus

    5. Letsgo!
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      if you are using wildcard, you have to thikn of long term, i dont think richarlison and choupo is a long term one.

  29. DAN DARE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Vardy's headline stats of 5 in 7 look enticing but when you consider that 4 of those were against Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool, with only 1 in 3 from BHA, Hud, Bou, I'm not convinced the upcoming fixtures are that great for him. Thoughts?

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      An interesting view but I do think that he is dangerous to ignore at his current price. Enables more balance elsewhere in your team.

    2. Assisting the assister
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Yep he's the right third striker to allow you to have at least 3 decent mids. All about balance for now until Aguero and Morata start taking us back to the top heavy model.

    3. Bird Raymond
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      My thinking as well. Does better on the counter attack. Seems to be a default pick for many. Also I don't think Leicester are far from another crisis.

    4. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      But if not him, who? Any of the cheap 3rd forwards seem to have the edge? Abraham has fixtures, if nothing else

  30. OldBenKenobi
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Are we making out City vs Stoke is easier than it really is?

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      0-0 last season with a lot of TC chips down the swany so doubt that a lot of managers think that way
