Weekly score: 55 Overall rank: 10,731
An average week and a small rank drop of around 1k. Sterling didn’t explode which was good but Hazard didn’t either which wasn’t so good as my vice captain. Balbuena’s clean sheet was very welcome off the bench go alongside returns from Robertson, Alonso, Arnautovic and Jiminez; not explosive but holding rank in a difficult time.
Transfers and captaincy
At the moment I have no idea what to do with the two free transfers. Hazard and Salah are pretty nailed on to start midweek against poor defences, Aubameyang looked brilliant today whilst Kane didn’t, I don’t have a City mid and I have a probably injured Aguero. A dilemma for sure. My thoughts on the options I am interested in are:
Kane – not in form, expensive, good fixtures. Would need a double move to upgrade from Aguero
Aguero – may be injured, probably wont get more than 70 mins with Jesus around
Sterling – great option, may not start. Priced out of a straight swap with Hazard so would need a double move to swap with him. Can downgrade Salah but he has an awful Burnley
Sane – good option, may not start
Silva – good option, likely to start after being rested at the weekend
Anderson – looks a good option, good price but not sure on triple West Ham as I own Balbuena and Arnautovic
Aubameyang – looks a great option but not guaranteed to start
Eriksen – great fixtures, on set pieces, until Trippier returns?
Alli – great fixtures, affordable, very hot and cold
Right now I’m tempted by Aguero and Hazard to Kane and Silva. As City have Chelsea on the weekend I’m not overly scared about getting in Sterling until after then which coincides with Salah’s run getting more difficult so that makes sense (today!)
I will be pondering over these probably until the deadline. Captain will likely be Kane, Salah or Aguero/Sterling if one is confirmed as starting and dependent on the transfers I make.

A good week and around a 1k rank increase using two transfers to change my team up for the weeks ahead. My defence was strong again with only new signing Laporte letting me down. My new look midfield is strong although I am tempted to do a Hazard/Jimenez (who was only 1 week double fixture punt) double transfer for Kane and Anderson who have great fixtures for the foreseeable.
Sky Sports Fantasy Football
Weekly score: 108 Overall rank: 211 Transfers left: 22
An excellent weekend for me although four transfers helped! All were long term moves though as I shook my team up for the next few weeks.
Aguero, Boly, Doherty and Ryan to Sterling, Andersen, Luiz and Allison.
Maddison chipped in nicely this week also and I am pleased to be holding on to Richarlison for his next few games. The value in defence was there again and although Vinagre’s spot may be under threat soon I don’t really mind due to his price.
Transfers and captaincy
I have a well-balanced team for the next few weeks although I may do one or two more regarding getting in Kane.
Sun Dream Team 1
Weekly score: 28 Overall rank: 190,622 Transfers left: 0/month
A shocker with City conceding and none of the big hitters really firing. Luiz’s clean sheet and a lucky Lacazette goal helped a little but the team is struggling to even hold rank each week.
Transfers
Transfers are available on Friday so I’ll cover my thoughts in the next article.
Sun Dream Team Team 2
Weekly score: 54 Overall rank: 3,936 Transfers left: 0/month
Similar to the above team, hopefully City’s defence can begin firing again soon for some big gains.
