    You could download gyazo and follow the simple instructions to get a squad image. Look on YouTube if you don't know how to use gyazo.

    Hi

    My team as it stands , i have untill tomorrow (11.30)to change things . After tomorrow im going 3-5-2 changing Teves for Torres.

    Al-Habsi

    Rafael - Distin - Coloccini

    Kagawa - Dyer - Kacaniklic - Fellaini

    Graham - Teves - Van Persie

    Subs - Cech - Wilkinson - McCartney - Hazard

    in the bank .07

    Any tweeks/ideas/improvments would be great . Good luck to James123 and thanks to Kennyb3

    Sell Cech for a lower rank keeper,way too expensive!;)
    Keep Tevez till he stops rising in price plus if Chelsea do sign a striker Torres will drop off in form once again,imo.
    Midfield somehow looks weak for a future 3=5-2 formation but cant quite nail why......

    It's because he should be playing 3-4-3 with that team not 3-5-2. Graham should start ahead of Kacaniklic.

    This weeks offering:

    Begovic

    Rafael / Zabaelta / Simpson / Demel

    Michu / Pienaar / Bale

    Tevez (C) / Graham / Van Persie (VC)

    Subs: Foster / Kacaniklic / Cuellar / Hazard

    Quite pleased with my squad overall now. I have enough in my bank to get Cazorla in for Bale when Arsenal's fixtures improve and swap Zabaleta for Lescott when he starts playing consistently.

    Good luck everyone!

    Hi all,

    Team for this week is:

    Vorm (Begovic)

    Rafael Assou Jagielka Briggs (Demel)

    Kagawa Kacaniklic Pienaar Michu (Hazard)

    Tevez Jelavic (Torres)

    Happy with fwds and Gk's. Looking for options on defence and Kacaniklic.
    Have 0.2 to spend & Wc in play, after a disastrous start, normally wouldn't consider it at this stage :-(

    Thanks, Dub

    I be playing my WC this week also. I've built my team around RVP so I had to make some savings.

    I went with howard rather than vorm & Swansea def (5.0) for jags, you would save 0.5m for more or less the same defence. Also I got gallas over Assou (1.5m saving given Kaboul is out for months)....it would give scope to upgrade briggs, demel & Kacaniklic.

    Thanks Warrior & best of luck, team could be this now:

    Howard (Begovic)

    Rafael Gallas Mertesaker Williams (Demel)

    Kagawa Dembele Pienaar Michu (Hazard)

    Tevez Jelavic (Torres)

    Not convinced of Gallas though, nor Spurs defence on the whole
    Mertesacker would be benched this week
    I'll probably play a 4-3-3 for the next few GWs, so a cheap mid will not be so bad (Sterling could be an alternative to Kacaniklic, see how the game goes on Sunday)..

    Gona sleep on it

    Fair play nice team, i would not be complaining if that was my team. Zabaleta is sound for this weekend but i would be thinking about getting rid of him for next week because he is too risky now with the arrival of Maicon.

    Your team could be better but i would not go using your wildcard. All your players will play except maybe Dembele who mite not start this week for Spurs. When your Chelsea players are back next week your team will not be too bad with 1 or 2 transfers.

    It's identicle to my team if you swap a few defenders around. I get the impression all the wild card teams will look very alike with players rocketing in price over the next couple of weeks.

    FYI - Fergie mentioned De Gea wasn't in the team because he made a mistake last week, but that he would be back in a 'couple' of weeks.

    So based on that we would expect to see Lindegaard next week. Although they did conceded twice to Southampton so its anyones guess...

    Ok this is what I think represents the best possible team you can get, the midfield and frontline takes care of itself with pog the permanent sub and an enabler but take notice of what I have done with my keepers and defenders, theres representation there of 7 different teams, all these teams are quite solid at home and offer good clean sheet potential ,so my strategy is to play the rotation came, it wont work every week but its better then buying expensive defenders who teams are conceding anyway and there also open to rotation

    Still don't see how Kagawa, the joint 69th highest points scorer in the game, finds his way into a best possible midfield selection.

    (Again, I rate the guy highly as a player but he's nowhere near a FF must have at the moment imo)

    Just don't do anything this week, wait till thurs/fri week. International games in early Sept always end up in a couple of injuries.

    Because he scored 17 goals in 30 games and won the German championship with Borussia dortmund last year, he scored a hattrick against Bayern in the German f cup final, the guys goals to games ratio is better than any of the other midfilders I have in my team, I do worry he will be played out of position at united though

    To me S.Taylor offers far more than Coloccini,pretty good squad other than that and possibly Sterling

    My current WC team

    team_18.jpg

    Any thoughts on how I could make some cash throughout the window? Was thinking of getting in Dembele but who to ship out temporarily?

    Also, what are yer thoughts on Bertrand. Started 2 of the first 3 games, surely worth a shout?

    Sorry to say but I think you are in a spot of bother with this team. Quite possible that some weeks Simpson will be your only defender playing. Also a good chance berbatov will play ahead of petric and kacaniklic not a guaranteed starter. Cant see Kagawa starting every week either which is all the more reason to have cheap subs that will definetly play. I would change bertrand and briggs as your next two transfers.

    Nice team but as said already by dahat i would have Steven Taylor instead of Coloccini and Aaron Hughes of Fulham instead of Wilson because you already have Stoke cover in Begovic.
