    I hope so.

    Traditionally clean sheets have been rare at the beginning of the season.

    About 2 seasons ago I looked at the average amount of clean sheets that the "big" teams get in the first 3 weeks. The average was 1.3 from memory.

    The "big" teams got 0 in GW1 last year, 3 in GW2 and 2 in GW3, so that average was 1.6.

    It also now on yoshida but also thinking of moving to Stephens
    It may be easier just to have both !

    Why Stephens over Yoshida?....is he more nailed on to start.

    Is Cedric only doubtful for first game?....would nearly chance him.

    I'm going to stick with Yoshi
    He is a big threat from corners

    Yoshida and Stephens is very much a coin toss, but Stephens did have a better rate of bonus points per game last season which is why I've gone for him.

    Much of a muchness however.

    I wish my worries were that simple.

    As I currently sweat over the fitness of Mesut Ozil who I brought in last night - making 3 transfers to do so, having never thought of including him prior.

    Hopefully there will be a whisper by 6:30.

    Stephens or Yoshi? Which one would be safest is the question!

    On Stephens atm I think I had him end of last season too. It was a coin toss then and it's a coin toss now it seems

    I have him but will be glued to Twitter for any early team news. If he doesn't start I'll switch to Fraser if I've time.

    I'd say so ya. Had a good pre season and Klopp is talking about Milner as a midfielder for the rest of the year. Clyne is out injured for a few weeks and the only other cover at RB is Gomez who is a CB and played poor at RB in pre season, and Flanagan who is muck.

    Had the same dilemma, went for Willian as he's more of a goal threat and takes more direct frees, and Jesus as I didn't like that Kane has never scored in August, also the Wembley Factor

    I have the same 3 at the minute. It's a bit punty but could be ok.

    I have it down to this combination...

    The safer option: A. Valencia - Monreal/Stones - Mee/Francis(4.5) - Strephens

    or

    Riskier: B. Jones - Danilo - Kolasanic - Stephens?

    I just put a post up in the gameweek 1 thread but I'll ask here as well. Who would you be more likely to trust for team lineups, the Guardian or FFS?


    The post in the other thread shows how stark they contrast in the Everton vs Stoke game.
