Going without Kane but still have doubts.

[Namkeng]

After the thousandth draft I've decided to start the season without Kane. The team looks strong in all areas but still have the nagging doubts as he is that big price for a reason. Anyway without him I feel this team can compensate for the loss.

Foster

Matip
Kompany
Trippier
Valencia

De Bruyne
Mikhitarian
Mane

Lacazette
Lukaku
Jesus

If Kane starts on fire I don't feel this team will be too far adrift and I can transfer him in mid September without too much damage.
Any input greatly appreciated.

Think trippier might be injured.

Yeah i feel same as you ive gone with out him..did say i would have him this year but so many good cheaper options wich allow a stronger all round team..if he is smashing it will just have to down grade a player n stick him in..looks like a really strong side there..yeah trippier is out 4 a while tho..

I read Trippier scan went well and may only miss one game. Did toy with starting with Davies but if Trippier is out short term that's one transfer I would have to make early on.
Another little decision to make but is something to contemplate before the deadline.

If Trippier does miss a few games then Davies as wing back frees up money to swap Kompany for Milner.

Foster

Matip
Milner
Davies

De Bruyne
