    will lescott start? i'm thinking of going lescott > zabaleta for the first few games. or maybe even downgrade yaya to larrson and get kompany in just to make sure :D rest of the team is nearly identical to mine

    DDG

    Harte - A.Cole - Zabaleta

    Ireland - Bale - Hazard - K.Nolan

    Defoe - Tevez - Torres (c)

    Subs
    Jaaskelinen.
    Clark
    Clyne
    Gibson

    I have 2 million in the bank from after a couple of switches now that involved tevez for aguero. not fully sure what to do with the 2 mil yet. could put in yaya toure for K.Nolan or could put in kagawa for Hazard/Bale and Cazorla for Nolan. Don't really want to have too many of the new players though, Hazard didn't set the world alight yesterday but the DGW and quality of the opposition is making me think i should have him for the first week anyway and see how he fares out.

    Foster Federici


    Rafael
    Lescott
    Cuellar

    Cole A


    Kagawa
    Guthrie
    Sigurdsson
    Yaya Toure

    Graham


    What you think guys. I have 1.5 Mill left in the bank

    Ill be playing a 3 5 2 or 3 4 3 formation not sure yet

    undecided over keepers reckon they are the best out there for their respective prices

    Had allen in but dont trust liverpool happy with the rest of the midfield seems fergie prefers kagawa going by pre season

    torres will start , tevez used in pre season and graham doing well __________________

    very good team - I would suggest replacing Pog with Graham if you can but otherwise it's very solid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Hopefully this will be my last draft, I have £2m in the bank to get rooney for second gameweek.

    Szczesny
    Koscielny Hangeland Lescott
    Bale Kagawa Etherington Allen
    Pogrebnyak Tevez Torres

    Bench:
    Ruddy Shawcross Pearce Ireland

    I'm left with a good few million in the bank, so going to upgrade Allen / Ireland to a 9.0-9.5 Mid (Hazard / Mata / Dempsey ?). Dont know who though. Not keen on Kagawa from week one either. All advice welcome.

    My team so far is:

    Green
    Skrtel, Ferdinand(rio) Gorkss
    Kagawa, Sig, NZogbia Guthrie
    Torres, Rooney, Aguero

    Subs: McCartney, Allen, Clyne, Cerny
    Wondering midfield too week?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Too much on defence?

    2jg5tzm.jpg

    I took out Nolan and Hart as they are doubtful to play the first match. Keeping an eye on McCartney who's also not 100%. My main error at the start of every season is having players in the team that are injured/don't play.

    My gamble at the moment is Kacaniklic, he started in Fulham's match against Charlton and set up Duff for the goal. he was also central to a few other moves and almost scored himself, just unsure whether he'll start. He didn't get much gametime at all last season.

    In saying that, Tevez and Kagawa aren't guaranteed starters either, but I'm pretty set on my GK and FW's. Have £2m in the bank for Rooney also.

    Really hate week 1.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 817 ✭✭✭audman


    What about Scholes guys? €5.5m. I wonder will he get enough game time? Took in a fair few points last season when u look at how late in the season he was introduced.


  • Registered Users Posts: 42 pzer


    any suggestions on below.
    think kagawa\hazard and vidic\kompany seem to be on lot teams.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,386 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    will zabalata start or would one go with lescott


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭T-b0n3


    will zabalata start or would one go with lescott

    With Richards out, most people feel Zab is a fairly safe bet. I have him myself at the moment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 343 ✭✭RB100


    done changes to my team last night and got Zaba for Lescott.


  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭hupskip


    Auero out, Tevez in?


  • Registered Users Posts: 452 ✭✭NEDDURC


    Reina, Mignolet,

    A Cole, Harte, Hangeland, Clark, O'Brien,

    Allen, Kagawa, Walters, Toure, Noble,

    Rooney, Tevez, Torres

    All comments welcome.

    How will you get Rooney with 3 united players already?

    And that, right there, is how you save someone a lot of embarrassment and annoyance in GW2. :p

    Any opinions on this team?

    Very solid XI, but very weak bench. Jenkinson will cause you trouble after a week or three when Sagna is back, and Britton got zero goals, assists, and bonus points last season, so there's not much worth in him at all.

    If you're looking for an ultra-cheap bench that plays, while keeping your XI, I'd find a 4m defender for Jenkinson, then upgrade Britton to Noble/Michu/Other 5m. (Edit: sorry, I see you already have Noble - Michu looks good to me)

    Alternatively, keep your fingers crossed for the first week or two, then drop Cole for Jones, Rafael, or whatever <6m United defender has been playing, then use the saved cash to replace Britton.

    Alternative #2: Downgrade Friedel since nobody knows how well Spurs will defend under AVB. Again, use cash to upgrade Britton and change Jenkinson.

    Keep Clyne. When more people see him play in midfield, his price should rise and make you a nice profit.

    I agree with Jenkinson, his just a short fix.
    Was toying with the idea of getting De Gea but I think Lindegaard could feature, leaving my other cheap keeper playing against strong opposition possibly. Also agree with Britton he probably has to go, Michu does sound good or maybe Taarabt.

    My plan is to drop Cole and Torres after week one, to bring in Rooney and a cheap defender. I also plan to bring in Naismith for the third game week who has been scoring goals in preseason.

    Any suggestions?

    How does this look? Not sure about the back line...

    Vorm - Ruddy
    Fabio - Shorey - Kaboul - Shawcross - Lescott
    Pienaar - Kagawa - Michu - Hazard - McClean
    Graham - Bent - Torres

    And I've 2m in the bank to swap Torres out for Rooney after GW1

    Any comments? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭OctavarIan


    Allowed myself to be swayed by Tevez after Mancini's recent comments about him being very important. Settling on this team.

    ihez60Wz2CIFG.png

    De Gea - Federici
    Zabaleta - Clark - Hangeland - Fabio - Clyne
    Pienaar - Kagawa - Bale - Yaya - Noble
    Tevez - Torres - Graham

    Leaves me with £3.0m in bank to bring in either Rooney for Torres or Aguero for Tevez at any point. Will be keeping an eye on Cazorla as well.

    First thing that jumped out at me was Vorm. Personally I'd stay away from Swansea's defence, Laudrup likes his teams to play offensively and I don't think Vorm will pick up as many clean sheets as last season or even close.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,386 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    I see Dempsey was not on the bench against Charlton in their last pre-season game, is he injured? He has been ever present on my team over the last 2 years. Do people believe that the arrival of Petric will mean that Dempsey will actually play in midfield? I would be interested to hear people opinion as Fulham imo have some nice fixtures starting off.

    cheap defence
    958bd53f73f45c0034d634b02be6b23b.png?1344884451

    Green / Begovic
    Demel / Gunter / Clyne / Tierney / Lowton
    Cazorla / Toure / Kacaniklic / Hazard / Kagawa
    Torres / Rooney / Tevez
