David Silva (£8.5) - Manchester City
City's midfield is a tough one to choose from. Players haven't been regular in the starting lineup, the ones who have been haven't provided consistent returns. The coming month should be a good indicator as to which player will be key for them and how the team will settle in.
Our pick is the evergreen Spanish maestro David Silva. He has in the absence of De Bruyne, taken the reigns in midfield and is the one responsible for their creative exploits.
He is perhaps the safest choice to start game-in-game-out apart from perhaps Fernandinho. Also, his positioning in the side gives him a lot of attacking opportunities. With City's possession play, Silva is many a time seen playing inside the box and his keen eye for goal might give his Fantasy owners a lot of points.
