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.

    Sane has gone backwards

  4. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    No wonder why Sane is out of favor. Shocking stuff

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Maybe more the fact that he's had no football for months.

  5. ZeBestee

    Looks like Sane has been affected by being dropped for the WC.

  10. UpAndAway
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Sane to warm the bench next game. Shocking display so far.

  11. The Tinkerman

    6pts from triple city is very disappointing.

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Just one game though! Should be well up GW1-3

    2. Duffy Dunk
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Back to double digits next week.

    3. Zladan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 23 days ago

      Mendy 4
      Bilva 1?
      Ederson 1?

  12. Four Hit Wonder
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    If I sell Sterling he'll not only haul 15 pts next GW but he's starting a run of hauls.

    Then when I buy him he'll blank.

  18. DROP IT LIKE IT'S HART
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    Sane has been atrocious since he came on. Safe to say he won't be threatening anyone's place anytime soon, then.

  19. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 23 days ago

    1. Bucket Man
      • 8 Years
