Sergio Aguero (£11.2m) leads the Manchester City attack for a third Premier League match in a row, much to the delight of his 46 percent ownership.

Only Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) has more backing than the Argentinian ahead of Gameweek 3, and 22 percent of those who voted in our poll are putting the captain armband on him.

Generally speaking there was little to be worried about by Pep Guardiola’s rotation for today’s meeting with Wolves at Molineux.

The popular Benjamin Mendy (£6.3m) keeps his place at left-back after registering four assists in his first two appearances of the season.

In fact there is some excitment for the 11 percent in possession of Bernardo Silva (7.6m) as the Portuguese international will be deployed on the right-wing of a 4-3-3.

Raheem Sterling (£11.0m) earned an expected recall to the side, still backed by just three percent.

The three main options to miss out were Gabriel Jesus (£10.5m), John Stones (£5.5m) and Riyad Mahrez (£8.9m) as they were named only on the bench.

Set piece specialist Rúben Neves (£5.1m) remains the most popular of Wolves’ Fantasy options with none of his colleagues coming close to his 22 percent ownership.

With the suspension of Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£4.1m) and last week’s surprising absence for Lee Peltier (£4.0m), Wolves centre-back Ryan Bennett (£4.0m) remains one of just a few active defensive options from the very cheapest price bracket.

WOLVES XI (3-4-3): Patrício; Boly, Coady, Bennett; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Jota, Jiménez, Costa.

MANCHESTER CITY XI (4-3-3): Ederson; Mendy, Laporte, Kompany, Walker; Fernandinho, Gündogan, D Silva; Sterling, Aguero, B Silva.

    That prediction that Jonty gave about a goal from Boly and a 6-1 City win... only 6 goals needed for City now! Although I don't think I'll be getting Boly coming on from my bench anymore.

    What has Jonty done?

      A deal with Satan.
      I witnessed the paperwork.

  20. Zladan

    Clear handball for the Wolves goal.
    Clear penalty for Dilva.

    Great to see decisions go against City.

  21. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Not a penalty, Silva kicks Neves

    1. Duderino

    Who needs var right? Handball for Wolves goal and then a clear penalty denied from City.

  23. Skalla
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    This ref denying Patricio a penalty save , unlucky for the owners...

  24. Paul Psychic Octopus

    Change the Bud Light ad to 'Boly Boly'

  25. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    If Doherty gets the assist then it was an offside handball from Boly...

    Imagine thinking VAR isn't needed 😆

    Playing a Wolves defender this week is the jammiest move ever if they keep a CS.

    1. G-Whizz

  28. My Name Is Pepu

    Handball goal and then legitimate penalty not given.

    Blatant cheating.

    Tear them apart City!
