    Joel Campbell scores for Arsenal now too, I can see a cat stealthily approaching a group of pigeons minding their own business, no danger just yet....

    A "friend" was a bit confused by this earlier. Anyway, my "friend" has since discovered it was Yaya Sanogo the 5m Arsenal striker...

    Same "friend" said to say he got a fourth.

    I knew all along.

    I can neither confirm nor deny that same friend rushed off and created a team around a certain 11m Man City midfielder before realising.

    I think he's been training on his own to increase his fitness levels as LVG said he wasn't fit enough to play as a wing back. I'd still expect him start the first match.

    Definitely rotatable. Raphael, Valencia, Young and Shaw all seem to be in contention for wing back roles.

    Evans would appear to be the Manchester United defender to be on if you're that way inclined.

    Think I'm going to wait and see on ManU defense since I already have Mata and Rooney and don't want to max out yet

    it's a so-so lineup, Mignolet Hendo and Sterling the only ones you could say confidently will start GW1

    i might be wrong, but i think the earlier result means Liverpool are into the final of the Guinness Cup, regardless of their result in this game. if so, then probably saving a lot of the big names for a few days time

    their fixtures at start are not great though and when they get better aguero will be back.......still might get him but it means losing Sanchez to free up cash.....

    yep. still hard to predict how exactly they'll line up GW1, but for now Jovetic's chances look good given the form he's shown(and let's remember, it was Pellegrini who signed him). likewise Navas has impressed in pre-season

    2 real possible differentials there!

    I believe it's his third penalty miss in his senior career.
