    Negredo is out for months and Aguero is injury prone. Unless they buy a big striker Dzeko should be first choice and City will score for fun.

    The same with Giroud at 8.5 with Sanchez signed and Ozil moving into his preferred position he should get a bucket load of chances.

    Remy at 7.5 also if he plays centrally for Liverpool which i think he will.

    imagine a front 3 of Remy, Sturridge and Sterling all interchanging positions with Lallana pulling the strings from behind. that would terrify the life out of defenders with all that movement and pace

    It will be harder to predict their line up ,presume lallana,sturidge and sterling and you are left with coutiniho,remy,markovic and maybe another for last position,untill they play a few games sterling and sturridge are thé safest options

    I agee. I think as a forward he would be in my team. Currently he's not in my latest draft.

    That's looking like what my front 3 will be, don't agree that Remy will play up front tho, he'll be out wide. Still plenty of goals to be scored from there.

    Although he is cheaper than lat season (when I avoided him), RVP does take up a lot of the budget!

    Anyone managed to get RVP, Sanchez, Hazard and Dzeko (a must have I think) into their team without the rest of it looking like a car crash??

    It can be done....


    De gea
    shaw terry debuchy (wisdom target)
    sanchez Hazard de jong sigurdsson (Albrighton)
    rvp dzeko nugent

    You could swap siggy out for puncheon or, maybe davis if you wanted to free up cash to upgrade nugent.

    If ye guys are saying ye would have sanchez in your team as a striker but not as a midfielder based on the logic that there are too many choices in midfield then ye are all mad.

    If sanchez performs to strikers levels as a midfielder he will clean up and should be the first midfielder you put in your team, think about it.

    I'm not saying I wouldn't have him in my team as a midfielder it just, for me, makes things a little more unbalanced. There's midfielders I'd like to play but wouldn't be able to when I have Sanchez filling one of those positions.

    What's done is done and we all have to adapt to the same situation.

    I'm saying as a 10.5 midfielder he's competing for a spot in my team against Hazard and Yaya, proven FF players. Probably can only have 2 of them at most in my team.

    If he was a 10.5 forward, he's competing against Rooney and Diego Costa, both whom I have question marks over and am unlikely to have in my team.

    Bojan is crap. He failed to light it up playing with much better players at Barca, Milan ,Roma & Ajax,I can't see him doing much at Stoke with their players.

    Is Naismith likely to start for Everton? Im thinking that if Lukaku moves to Everton he'll not see much gametime thinking i might have to seriously restructure my current team.

    No. Was 2nd/3rd choice striker last season and they will have Kone back this season, which will furhter bump him down the order (assuming Lukaku moves)

    Would you lads rather have Rooney and Eriksen, or Van Persie and a £6.0m midfielder such as Sigurdsson?

    I've taken the van Persie route. I feel there's a good chance he'll be back to his best, which is more consistent than Rooney, and more captainable. Also, Eriksen is good, but I think some lesser priced player will do as good as him. Whether that'll be Siggy or somebody else, who knows?

    From those options, RvP and Sigurdsson. But Eriksen is one of the definites in my team.

    The only 5m striekrs on my radar are....
    • Kane (Spu) - ended last season well, played a lot in the last few games. Obviously a new manager could change everything. Pochetino normally played a 4-2-3-1 at Southampton so not sure Kane will fit into that.
    • Vardy (Lei) - 16 league goals last year. Decent player. Overshadowed at Leicester by Nugent who got 20 (but 9 of those were penalties).

    Vardy is a very decent player but don't see him getting enough minutes now that Ulloa has been signed

    I'd expect Ade or Soldado to start up front for Spurs. Soldado was too isolated last year when he played for me so I'm looking forward to seeing what Pochetino can do with him and a few of the other Spurs players.

    One of Barnes, Jutkiewicz, or Sordell should start for Burnley while Sam Vokes is out. They're all 5.0m or less

    Done deal. Anyone think this will cut into Odemwingie's game time? I currently have Arnie so am not too worried.

    Can anybody tell me who they think offers more going forward Debuchy or Davies. I know Arsenal will keep clean sheets but Pochetino will have Spurs very solid. I think at 5.0 he could be a bargain.

    I have both at the moment. That's a tough question about who's better going forward, individually there's not much between them but I would expect debuchy to get more chances to go forward given he plays in a stronger team.

    I'd expect him to. Spurs are lacking a decent left back.
