VIII) Wilson
Riyad Mahrez is close to matching De Bruyne for assists this season and Scott from Fantasy Football Pundits is recommending him as a replacement if the Belgian is out long-term.?KDB injured
— Scott Wilson (@ScottW1110) October 2, 2019
?B. Silva looking at a 6 game ban
?Only 3.9% owned
?1 point less than Stering
?£3.6m cheaper than Sterling
Is now the time to get Mahrez in? He’s in great form, and hearing Pep’s comments about him has filled me with confidence. #FPL
?MAHREZ IN ?

X) Dinnery
The key issue for many FPL managers is the length of time Kevin De Bruyne is set to be out. Ben Dinnery provides a vital update and the prognosis is promising.Guardiola confirms De Bruyne's groin injury is "not serious" although the midfielder remains a doubt for Sunday. Likely to return after the international break. #MCFC
