I would worry about son rumour has it that barkley is on his way to spurs so his place will be under threat

Kane traditionally doesn't start the season well (not many attackers do). With this in mind I've opted to invest more into my defence. Could drop one of your premium attackers to a 6.5 attacker and invest the 4mil + into improving defence (bring in 2 premium defenders)?

Quite the conundrum, thoughts please:
Foster, Myhill,
Trippier, Lindlhof, Kompany, Lowe, Yoshida
Coutinho, Alli, Fabregas, Carroll, Lewis-Cook,
Rom, Kane, Austin
Tempted KDB-Aguero to Alli-Kane but going without Kane cost me a few thousand places at the end of last season so don't want to go without him again. Also I have broken Coutinho the last few times I've had him as well.

Foster
Trippier Kolasinac Cedric Lindeloff
Ramsey Willian KDB
Kane Lukaku Defoe

Myhill Carroll Cork Mee

Fairly happy with this for now. Decided it's better off starting with Kane, will be an easy downgrade if he starts off poorly. Defoe can become Austin/Hernandez if either of those impress. Read a couple of articles on Kolasinac that convinced me he's worth including. Expect him to be lwb while Monreal is part of the back 3. No Pool cover for now but that could change nearer the deadline.

Like the Ramsey pick, could be great value this year. Not sure Defoe has another good season in him, didn't he taper off a lot in the second half of last season. Benteke and Hernandez better in my opinion at that price. West Ham are building a decent looking squad now.

Thanks for input. You could be right re: Defoe but he should get a lot better service at Bournemouth than he did last season. Hard to know if he has the legs for another season but he does look after himself. Will definitely be considering Hernandez but would like to wait and see how fit he is and how Bilic sets up the team with all these new signings. Benteke is an fpl favourite of mine so I may end up going for him in the end. Just a shame he's useless at pens :rolleyes:

Alderweireld holgate holding

Willian mikhy pogba zaha

Morata lukaku lacazette

Bench - dud keeper. Hanley rlc benalouane

I'm happy with that. Assume willian will play with hazard injured. Not sure pogba will get the point to justify the money...

Three United attackers is overkill imo. I'd swap one of them for a City/Spurs player. Holgate and Holding aren't nailed on either, worse case scenario you could end up with just one playing defender.

Chancer3001

Maybe yeah.

I'd say the Leicester lad and Hanley would start tho if my defence doesn't.

To be honest I'd change your hole back line and gk; and no way id have 3 man u in attack. Even two seems a little overkill;

I'm sticking with the keeper. Chelsea keep clean sheets.

Why would you change those 3?

Since fergie stepped down utd have struggled for goals. 64,62, 49,54 are there last four seasons goal tally amazingly the Moyes season was the one with the most goals. The last 4 seasons of fergie goals scored was 86,78, 89,86. Its crazy to go with 3 utd attackers.

Chancer3001

Valid points.

I am worrid about pogba and mikhy . But they're only 8 each... Not many other options with 2 players for 16...

I do think lukaku will score a pile though

SlickRic

You can get Pedro and Sané for 16.5 for instance.

Miles better.

Busts confirmed the attacking point better than I could- think you need change them but your call,
Courtois gets Cs but little save points and very little bonus, if going Chelsea i'd stretch a little more to one of the defence who have bonus and goal potential
Alder is solid but trippier looks a great option if stays fit for less, rest of defence not nailed so think way to risky to start with

First proper selection. Think 4 at the back is the way to go at the start.

Foster
Milner Daniels Trippier McAuley
Sane Alli Pogba
Aguero Lukaku Gayle

4.0 gk, 4.0 def, RLC and Walters

Main concern is no Chelsea or arsenal cover. Two each from City, Utd and Spurs. Might be too much investment in def. Would prefer Alderweireld instead of Trippier but no funds.

KDB and Lingard 16M

Kdb
Pedro
Lingard
Sane

Tbf I only see Kdb and maybe Pedro as a starter every week from those. Rest are in rotation...

I can see willian getting in ahead of Pedro more regularly this season too

Yeah I'm surprised to see so many going for Pedro. Conte said he wanted to upgrade 3/4 positions this offseason and immediately thought of Pedro's role

Chancer3001

Plus he has multiple cheek fractures right now.

That injury could set him back physically and mentally

Fabianski /Foster - Rotate all season
Cedric / Trippier / Naunton / Mee / Dawson
Alli / KDB / Willan /Lingard / RLC
Kane / Lukaku / Depoitre

Fab or Willian so
I really would prefer fabregas if he could nail down a starting position for first 6 games or so

I have willian. He's nailed on until hazard returns at least. Surely.

I'd also love fabregas and he's so cheap...

But he didn't play often enough last season and not they've signed bakayoko

Think bakayoko has a knee injury so may be a doubt for the first few games? Doesn't seem to be much info on it though so Willian may be safer.
