Jaysus you are up early.

FHFC

Mahrez or Gradel?

Liam2012

I'm going with this

Schmeichel
Gomez Cedric Francis
Hazard Ozil Sterling Milner Ritchie
Rooney (c) Kane

Subs Schwarzer Coates Sakho Bassong

Loads of goals in the early game would be great. Rarely happens though but it's set up for a high scoring game.

Gooners

I have been changing my team half the morning.
Have Benteke and Pellé.
Henderson or Manéour or go another team altogether?

Mahrez did the business late last season. Gradel is an unknown. Easy one for me.

8-10

Mahrez. More certain to start

Lemlin

I see FFS reckon Cabaye will start behind the CP striker. That's where I'd expect Pulis to start him as he was a huge success at Newcastle in that role.

Glad I went with him now.

Little Bubbles

Lukaku what's the story. Injured or not

Where do you think Pardew will play him?

Gradel scored 18 goals from wing in his last season with Leeds (11/12) and was player of the year. Scored 17 with St Etienne in French league last year. Very attack minded winger

Start Francis or Huth?

I'll blame the early morning start!

I'm leaning towards Huth

Last year I finished GW1 at 82k. Would snap your hand off for that sort of result this weekend..

Great to have it back. Fantastic weekend of sport. Rugby, soccer football today, up to croker tomorrow for the hurling. Only pity is the ashes looks like it will be wrapped up early today.

Yep, top 100k GW1 would be immense! 38 of those and you walk the whole damn thing :P

Went with Huth also.

I'm trying to resist messing with the team any further. Will probably cave in before 11:45 and start the season with a completely different 15 to what I have now.

Menas

Its time to put down the lap top and stop tinkering!

Brilliant! Good luck to all, will be out of the loop most of the day with no data or WiFi

Western Pomise

Right lads here's my defence...one place up for grabs...who should I go for that suits rotation/likelihood to play?

Courtois Schwarzer

Huth. Coates. Koscielny Martin (Norwich)

And one from
Joel Ward (Crystal Pal)
Or
Gomez ( Liverpool)
Or
Francis (Bournemouth)

That will finish me for day so really appreciate any feedback:)...
Have a feeling Liverpool will sign a LB

Difderential FPL isn't free but it is good value. I can't see any updates since Oct 2014 though

Update was in play store this morning.
Not fully functional yet for this season but better than nothing.
