AGUERO THE BEST EARLY CAPTAIN

As Fantasy Premier League managers can now select their 15-man squads, The Scout analyses standout budget and premium players in each position.
Sergio Aguero (£11.0m)

The Manchester City striker makes a strong case for inclusion in opening squads.

Aguero continues to be one of the most reliable points scorers available in Fantasy.

He is also one of the best captaincy alternatives to popular choices such as Mohamed Salah (£13.0m).
'More than any forward'

The Argentinian impressed even during an injury-hit 2017/18 campaign.

A knee problem limited Aguero to 25 appearances. But he still scored 21 goals and supplied a further six assists to tally 169 points.

His average of 6.8 points per match and 93.8 minutes per goal were both more than any other forward in the game.

The underlying statistics strengthen the case to pick Aguero.

Last season he had 94 shots, 80 of which were inside the penalty area and 42 on target.

That placed him top among Man City players.

GW7 ONES TO WATCH;SEAN MORRISON

Sean Morrison (£4.9m) Cardiff City may not have started the season as strongly as they would have liked but they do possess a centre-half who is making an impact in both defence and attack. Morrison helped his side to clean sheets against Newcastle United and Huddersfield Town over Gameweeks 2 to 3. He followed that up with back-to-back assists against Arsenal and Chelsea. Major threat The 27-year-old boasted a fine record in last season's Championship. He scored seven goals and recorded a total of 50 shots on goal. Although he has yet to score this term, Morrison has carried a major threat for the Bluebirds. Chance creator No Cardiff player has bettered his totals of seven chances created and two big chances. A big chance is a situation where the player receiving the pass is expected to score. Morrison's aerial threat can be decisive against visitors Burnley this Sunday.
