    Hazard last season was just remarkably consistent. I think I remember one 14 point match and besides that it was 9/10/11 pointers. Two seasons ago, he had the hat trick 21 pointer and a 17 pointer against Sunderland IIRC. If Hazard gets 15+ points in GW1 you're looking a big uphill task unless Costa(c)+Cesc cover it

    I'm going without him till GW4 which I'm terrified of tbh but budget constrictions are forcing me.

    It's Hazard or Costa for me. Whichever one I go with I will captain.
    On Haz at the moment.

    Pretty worried by the poor defenders but Hazard & Rooney must be definites surely. Any feedback would be great !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,471 ✭✭✭✭km79


    an arsenal midfielder is a MUST in my opinion for first few games. Take your pick there is plenty of choice!
    Either for depay or sterling or downgrade costa and upgrade henderson.
    This will also give you money to upgrade one of your dud 4ml defenders. Get a 4.5 ml defender from one team to rotate with another who is not Bassong as doubling up with Norwich goalie is VERY risky.
    Finally I dont know if id fancy playing Deeney every week......but depends on whether you want to keep costa or have cash freed up......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 64 ✭✭Fenson


    Here I am.

    Butland/Ruddy

    Sakho/Shaw/Azpi/Ward/Trippier

    Haz/Sterling/Ozil/Chadli/Redmond

    Benteke/Rooney/Deeney

    I think I will be going with it right now. Question marks is Chadli or Hendo/Milner and playing 4.0 defender. Captaining Hazard. Rotate goalkeepers and Deeney with Redmond. Any thoughts? I will apreciate !

    The big question with hazard is will he still be on pens. Costa took the one in the last game of the season. If hazard isn't on pens I think he is overpriced that's 30 to 40 pts gone I'd imagine.

    I really hope Chelsea get a penalty in the charity shield to clear this one up.

    Thoughts?

    Courtios

    Darmian
    Azpilicueta
    Bellerin

    Carzola
    Fabregas
    Milner
    Depay

    Rooney
    Benteke
    Pelle

    Do you reckon guys Darmian and Depay are nailed on starters?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭shineon23


    I've had to face facts.

    There's absolutely no way I'll be able to fit George Boyd in to my team :(

    Nice team, good balance. I'd replace Darmian with Shaw. Darmian is not nailed on apparently as LVG promised Valencia the start.

    Depay is interesting. If he hits the ground running we'll all want him. If LVG doesn't get any more strikers through the window I think he has a good chance of playing but playing might consist of 40 mins as opposed to a whole match. If you want Man Utd cover I think Mata is the safer bet and he's the penalty taker.

    My tuppence ;)

    Before the season starts I would expect the teams posted to be full squads and not just your GW1 team. You're missing 4 players here, can't really give a proper assessment on what the team overall is looking like

    Opinions on this?

    Butland / Schmeichel
    Bellerin / Azpi / Mings / Kaboul / Taylor
    Hazard / Silva / Ozil / Richie / Bentlab
    Rooney / Mitrovic / Giroud

    Looks good, like the Mitrovic pick. Giroud is the worry for me if he loses out to Walcott early on but without Sanchez they might both start anyway. 3 Arsenal players is a good call

    Yeah Giroud/Walcott is the worry, I'm hopeful the charity shield clears that up though

    My subs are Schwarzer Bentaleb Richards Mings


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 128 ✭✭farranreeboy


    Kolarov or Clichy who's gonna be the first choice left back for city i would like to have Kolarov for free kicks

    When both fit they tend to rotate unfortunately. Kolarov got more games towards end of last season but notsure whether Clichy was fully fit.

    How about Trippier guys do any of ye have him your team or at least considering him?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭Colking

    Considering him alright. After Man U, Spurs they have a decent run of games and if Trippier settles quickly he could take good advantage of that.

    For 5.5 though I think there are other more settled Defenders (Mert, Bellerin etc.)for the initial few games and you can keep an eye on him and see how he does.

    swap him for costa and upgrade elsewhere

    Spurs fan here. I'd avoid Spurs defence, we're absolutely dog**** at the back and I can't see that changing without buying a competent DM.

    No Arsenal attacking coverage, 2 x Utd & 2 x Chelsea... I'd be switching that there.

    Get in Giroud / Walcott / Ozil or Rambo

    Personally I'd downgrade Rooney

    and upgrade Walters or Ulloa to Sakho

    Has anyone got a good idea on teams who defensively rotate well?

    All the small budget defenders I seem to go for don't rotate well

    Although I've listed it, I'm not so sure I'd go for it myself. WBA have a tough opening few games, and Villa play very attacking under sherwood. It may be a good option later in the season when we see how teams are getting on. And even then it might more a case of having a WBA defender, with a Villa player as back up for their tough games, rather than out-and-out rotation. I think SUN-NEW is a better option at the start due to Sunderland nice opening fixtures.
