    RVP 12.5M


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,579 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Sturridge v expensive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,205 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Sanchez been added as midfielder . That's good.

    that could be absolutely incredible value.

    Cesc at 9.0 looks tasty.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,773 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    Trippier 5.0 - Damn.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,205 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Courtois 6M
    Coleman 7M
    Shaw 6M
    Trippier 5M
    Yaya Touré 11M
    Sánchez 10.5M
    Hazard 10M
    Ramsey 9M
    Ozil 9M
    Mata 9M

    Just a few I've been interested in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,858 ✭✭✭✭average_runner


    Alot of average players are over priced. Might not do it this year


    Remy could be the best buy if he moves club!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,358 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Coleman at 7.0 is steep IMO; may as well go Baines.

    Ozil, if he's rested enough by the season's start, could be cracking value at 9.0.

    Ramsey could also still end up cheap at 9.0.

    keep an eye on Vlaar at 4.5 if he goes to a bigger club in England.

    Eriksen 8mil :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,791 ✭✭✭✭JPA


    Fabregas for highest points scorer, 9.0 is a bargain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,070 ✭✭✭tom_k


    My opinions at first glance:

    De Gea @ 5.5 and Krul at 4.5 good value.

    Also Schurrle @ 7.5

    Yaya 11, Sanchez 10.5, Hazard 10, Ramsey 9

    Fabregas, Mata, Silva, Gerrard all 9 makes midfield a tough choice.

    Same with Bony at 8.5m if he goes to Liverpool and starts

    He'd be a great option if you could guarantee he'd start but you can't do that with Hazard Salah Oscar Willian and even Cesc competing for the a spot behind Costa.

    absolutely.

    lots of big, big players at 9.0.

    Really disappointed with that. Rose 5 mil now classed as a def and bardsley 5 mil now at Stoke could be good value. Marney 4.5 burnley will be a decent cheap midfielder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,278 ✭✭✭x43r0


    I'll be staying away from Aguero this year unless he goes on a Suarez like run of form

    He's priced way too high for someone so prone to injury

    I'm so excited

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,038 ✭✭✭circadian


    Where are you guys getting the prices?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Potential bargains IMO:

    Krul 4.5
    Mannone 4.5 (I'm amazed he is still this price after 134 points last year)

    Man United defenders - all 5.5 (bar Shaw) which should be good value under van Gaal.

    Michu - 7.5 (if he regains form)
    Kagawa - 6.5 if van Gaal used him.
    Odemwingie - 6.5 and listed as a mid.
    Siggy - 6 mil if he moves.

    Dzeko - 8.5.

    Edited to correct Shaw error.

    Here ya go:

    Terry,
    Stones,
    Bertrand,
    Oviedo,
    West Ham defenders
    Sanchez,
    Ozil(was poor last season)
    Lamela
    Tadic (would be a gem at 6, 7.5 way too much)
    Soldado
    Pelle

    Would go with Utd keeper as would be a starter for sure

    I would't go near him or Evra anyway. They'll be rotated. I'd be looking more at Phil Jones and the central defenders.

    Evra should be off to Juventus in the next few days so Shaw should start every game.

    Debuchy at 5.5 could be a decent option when his move to Arsenal goes through.

    I thought that he had only signed a new contract?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,358 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Here ya go:

    Terry. 6.5 is perfect. captain for a Mourinho team.
    Stones at 5.5, literally just .5 maybe too expensive.
    Bertrand he's a Chelsea sub defender. 5.0 is standard
    Oviedo 5.0 is maybe .5 too expensive
    West Ham defenders they're solid at home
    Sanchez could be the steal of the game at 10.5 as a MF
    Ozil(was poor last season) 9.0 is bang on. could flourish if suitably rested.
    Lamela 8.0 is too much. who cares though?
    Tadic (would be a gem at 6, 7.5 way too much) he's going to start, probably as the main playmaker, in a team who came top half last year. maybe 1.0 too expensive, but I can see where they're coming from.
    Soldado 8.0 is perfect. he's a potential goldmine in the correct system.
    Pelle 7.5 for a striker likely to start in a top 8 team. maybe .5 too expensive since he's unknown, but meh.

    If these are the extent of your grievances, I think we're ok.

    what about the bargains? 9.0 for Cesc for instance? Silva for 9.0?

    people always expect to pick whoever they want at the start of the season. it's not how it works.

    i've already seen people moaning about some of the prices for Ramsey, Ozil, Cesc, Sturridge. the game is a farce if the prices are so low that you can just pick who you basically want.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Krul and whichever Sunderland keeper starts both at 4.5 gives u Sunderland and Newcastle perfect rotation for 9 million. Striker options aren't great can see myself spending a lot of money on midfielders.

    Lemlin wrote: »

    Apparently just to bump the fee a touch!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,205 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood

    He did, Eric Abidal signed for Olympiakos 2 days after signing a new contract at Monaco last week. Contract was only signed so that United got a fee for him imo even if it is a small one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,070 ✭✭✭tom_k


    Does anyone have any idea who's likely starting GK for Sunderland?

    I was thinking the same re the rotation myself. Mannone and Krul also both scored well last year.

    Dummett at Newcastle is decent value at 4.0 if he plays as well.

    Jelavic at Hull is only 6.0.

    How come Costa isn't on it? I can't find him anyway. Maybe I'm blind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin

    Mannone without doubt. Hero of last season.

    That's what I'd hoped, just thought he might be at risk when they signed Pantilimon...

    How are you seeing the players I cant access the site yet?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Naismith at 5.0m striker could be a good shout if Everton don't sign anyone big. He got a lot of starts at the end of last season

    I've picked a quick team and started a rate my team thread:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=91300997#post91300997

    Krul - 4.5
    Mannone - 4.5

    9 mil spent

    Debuchy - 5.5
    Baines - 7.0
    Shaw - 6.0
    Dunne - 4.5
    O'Brien - 4.5

    27.5 mil spent

    Fabregas - 9 mil
    Walcott - 9 mil
    Sanchez - 10.5 mil
    Odemwingie - 6.5
    Shelvey -5.5

    40.5 mil spent

    Dzeko - 8.5
    Bony - 8.5
    Jelavic - 6.0

    23 mil spent


    Players are nearly too underpriced IMO. That's a decent team for a first stab at it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 219 ✭✭greensausage


    got the calculator out and did a very quick first draft and it came in at 108 so going to have to make some major cuts!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 671 ✭✭✭skipz


    Mannone and Fabregas on the team for sure, coleman can go swivel for 7!

    Iam a bit surprised yaya is at 11, was expecting 12.0 :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,205 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Ben Davies is meant to be singing for Spurs at 5m he could be a really good option.

    Or Liverpool. Either way would be a bit of value in that

    Yep be good value at either of them, Just seen that Spurs have agreed a fee so mentioned them.
