I’d love to get KDB in my squad but like you, I start with assumption that Salah and Haaland are must haves and it then becomes thought to accommodate the Belgian just on price alone without compromising elsewhere.
The Alvarez situation could cause problems for FPL managers. 6 weeks ago he was just an understudy now he’s a World Cup winner. Surely he’ll want more game time and that will come at the expense of players like Foden or even Haaland.
I like Foden, I’ve tried a couple of options to get him in the squad but ultimately I’m not convinced by him as an FPL option simply because at his price I’d expect him to be almost guaranteed a start.
I’d certainly consider him as an option for a 3rd City player later on…
I think it's possible but I also want Foden and Nunez which then makes the rest of the team a bit rubbish. I'd love the De Bruyne, Foden and Haaland trio and I'm still so tempted by it - I'll probably switch Salah to De Bruyne at some point.
I wonder if Alvarez, Foden and Haaland could all play. Pep's mentioned before about playing 2 up front and somebody like Bernardo Silva could be sacrificed. It's the kind of system which could work well against the lesser teams where there's little defending to be done.
