    Muatafi at 5.5 is another good option
    Has a decent goal threat from what I've seen of him

    Maybe not from the start though.

    Wenger always gives player who went far in international tournaments more time off.

    Noboby's mentioned Aguero at 11.5 being unbelievably reasonable.

    He seems nailed on, so with all this Lukaku and Kane talk, I'd encourage people not to forget about old friends.

    He was my first pick

    Tempted to start off with Aguero rather than Kane. City normally start well and Kane doesn't. Then there's the Wembley effect.

    Rob Elliot 4.0m for Newcastle. A fan's favourite and has done very well for them. There were also rumours that Darlow could be leaving.

    Darlow supposed to be on way out along with Krul. But Rafa is looking to get Reina/Hart in so think Elliott will be No.2

    I'm off out now. Can someone start up a Rate My Team thread? Just so that this thread doesn't get clogged up with so many posts of that nature. Cheers.

    Walters could be as perfect a 4th mid as you could find. I think they made a huge error with his pricing but that for us to capitalize on now.

    How certain is he to start? There doesn't seem to be a great deal of value around that price bracket.

    Walters might not be nailed on. Have Burnley sold any of their strikers? If not then it's probably Gray and one of Vokes/Walters/Barnes. And Burnley are hardly prolific either. It could work out, but I think at this stage it's very much classified as a punt.

    Capoué scored a hatful last year, Loftus-Cheek gone on loan to Palace.

    Allows you to switch defenders, midfielders according to the fixture list.

    Walter could be a shout and maybe out of position when he does play? Chance of an odd peno too but that's probably wishful thinking.

    Loftus for 4.5 will probably be everyone's 5th mid... JWP for 5.5 with them fixtures is decent, Allen for 5.5 is just meh and Walters for 5.5 is a punt maybe

    I'll most likely start with Lukaku and Kane. It's easier to drop one if needs be or they don't fire rather than struggle to get them in if they do fire in the first week.

    Fairly certain.

    No way he's leaving being a squad player with a fair amount of starts at Stoke to being the same thing at Burnley.

    I've got RLC in my first draft, seems as good an option at £4.5m as any atm. Had Capoué from GW1 last year though benched him for all his points.

    Do you really think he'll be fist choice there ahead of Barnes and Vokes? He's 33, I dunno if he has it in him to lead the line every week ahead of two much younger lads.

    Also, he's been dodgy at penalties of late.

    I would so love this to be a runner as he's one of my heros in the Ireland team, but I'm skeptical.

    Gray is on the way out I believe.

    I was looking at Paschal Gross of Brighton as 5.5m 5th mid. Hes an AM who has second highest number of chances created in Bundesliga, with a relegated side.

    5 goals and 4 assists but apparently started season playing more deep. Likely to have set pieces, scored 3 penalties in those 5 goals.

    RLC is a great option and a potential viable 4th mid, so I was looking at possibly rotating RLS and Gross to give: HUD, lei, SWA, WBA, SOT, NEW first 6.

    But Walters if he really is gonna start is even better and also rotates superbly with Palace giving : HUD, WBA, SWA, CPL, SOT, HUD first six.
