        Didnt play well at Old Trafford?

        He has good attacking threat, great fixtures, on set-pieces.

        No, but still in my side. Can't see much trusted options. Man Utd defence looks bit better but it's unsettled as well. Good fixtures teams like Licester, Arsenal or Everton are poor defensively too. Trippier was reset mid week and he adds set pieces and overall attacking threat.

      Can feel myself bottling Salah (C) and going Aguero.

        More I read on hear that Salah could potentially be rested more I'm swaying towards changing to Kun also! But you always get these rumours before transfer deadline!

      Guys,

      Im worried about Salah not starting or reduced minutes.

      Is Aguero a safer captain pick ?

      Thanks.

        Definitely safer to start and should be among the goals.

      On a -4 with this squad:

      Foster
      AWB Alonso Robertson Trippier
      Salah Hazard Maddison Fraser
      Arnie* Aguero

      Fab Stephens Peltier* Ings*

      Very little to come on if any of my 11 doesn’t play - do I need to make another transfer?
