Right so 2nd proper draft I'm happy with. Have had a heap still but happy with this.

Thoughts?

I like it. Have the same front eight in one of my drafts. Walker pick is interesting, haven't seen him in many drafts.

You see yourself playing 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 mostly ?

4-4-2 I'd image

Dunk (or similar) & Johnson to rotate predominantly

One of the first drafts

Pope-Heaton
Robertson-VVD-Zinchenko-(Kelly, Hanley)
KdB-Lucas Moura-Pereyra-Kante-(Dendonker)
Kane-Auba-Firminio

Any thoughts?

Midfield I’d worry about.

Expensive but a real set & forget. Want CS, Ederson is the same value but offers less attacking points. Love to go with Zinchenko but risky IMO.

It’s the closest I’ve seen to my team so far. Well my current team.

Thoughts on this please

Ederson button
Walker Coleman vvd robbo (Rico)
KDB Perez Barkley Salah (dendoncker )
King Kane (greenwood)

Henderson - a good keeper in a team 'predicted' to struggle. Should have plenty of saves, gone cheaper over expensive GK
Button - GK fodder

VVD - Again expecting him and Liverpool to be solid
Robertson - Preferring him over TAA now, feel more comfortable
Walker - Not confident on Zinchenko, Walker feels safer
Dunk - May change to a diff 4.5 if he does not go Leicester. Don;t think BRI will do well this season
Johnson - The better 4.0 over Lundstrum?

Sterling - Can't see me going without him
Salah - Same as above
Barkley - Punty but an upgrade on Jorginho who is not on pens afaik
Perez - Hopefully has a good season
Dendoncker - The best 4.5 fodder IMO

Kane - Can't see me going without him
King - Way into BOU attacking wise
Greenwood - May change to other 4.5 if Dybala moves.

Thoughts?

I like it. Similar enough to mine below

Heaton/Pope

Robertson VVD Dunk (Lundstram Rico)

Felipe Anderson Salah Barkley Perez De Bruyne

Kane Haller (Greenwood)

Expecting a strong season from De Bruyne. Bit of a punt on Haller but I think he will score goals.

Username exists · 02-08-2019 2:31pm

Pickford
Van Dijk TAA Laporte
Perez Sigurdsson Sterling Salah Grealish
Jota Deulofeu

Bench: Button, Greenwood, Rico, Kelly

So many drafts done now and am stuck between this team and swapping Sterling out to get Aguero in.

Any help would be appreciated

I'd like to go with both Sterling and KDB but team weakens with both & Salah. One or the other for me and Sterling wins. Think KDB will go well at the start though.

It's strong tbh, Heaton/Pope is interesting. Im more about set & forget but each have our preferences.

Our DF is similar, concern is Rico. I like Lindstrum and toying with the idea between him and Johnson as my 4.0 fodder

Midfield is strong, not sold on Felipe Anderson personally, I'd tend to go with him or Haller tbh. Double WHU is ambitious. Haller could be a nice differential, I'm waiting to see when Moise Kean goes how much he will be. Might take a punt

I’m getting increasingly tempted by 352 as well

Ya double WHU is a risk, will probably take one out and no doubt it will be the wrong one:D

Like that. I've similar. Basically where you have...
Sterling/Perez/Dunk

I have...
DeBruyne/Siggy/Digne

Bit of a toss up between the two:
DeBruyne - injured last year
Perez/Dunk - new teams
Digne - didn't lay full season last year

Chesty08 · 02-08-2019 4:36pm

Seriously considering bringing in Pepe for KDB now. I really think Pepe can have a season like Salah’s first season in terms of a high volume of goals & assists.

Alternative is to move around the defense of TAA/Digne/Zinchenko & Maddison in midfield.

Could end up going back to roots and going budget defence & money into attack

Sterling/Perez/Dunk

DeBruyne/Siggy/Digne

Of the two above, I prefer your three tbh overall though.

However, can't go without Sterling, that's the game changer for me!

nullObjects · 02-08-2019 7:48pm

Heaton (Pope)
TAA / Robbo / Laporte / Dunk (4.0)
Salah / Sterling / KDB / Perez (4.5)
Jota / Murray (4.5)

Keepers: Burnley and villa fixtures rotate nicely with home games
Defence: 3 fixture proof big hitters so I don't need to worry about chopping and changing so much. Dunk is as far as the budget stretches
Midfield: Afraid to go without both Salah and Sterling. Like KDB at his price as long as he stays fit and hoping Perez stays playing up front.
Attack: Murray lets me squeeze in KDB in midfield and then will pick a 6.5 striker from King / Jota

My most expensive attacker is 6.5 though so if I need to get Vardy / Kane / Wilson or someone who starts strong then I need to do minor surgery to my team structure.

normanoffside · 02-08-2019 7:57pm

I think I have my team picked but struggling on whether Sterling is essential or not. With that in mind:
Siggy and KDB or Sterling and Ceballos?

c.p.w.g.w · 02-08-2019 10:36pm

Does anyone know the story with Zaha? Injured, being tested or what? His not played for palace this off season

So that's him out of the team as it stands.

Son(Suspended) and Jimenez(Foot) atop of Zaha now...my team needs a bit of rework.

He was playing until the latter stages of the AFCON.

Lemlin · 02-08-2019 11:27pm

First draft so rip it apart lads:

Pope (Heaton)
Dunk, Laporte, Maguire, Robertson (Lundstrom)
Sterling, Salah (c), Tielemans, Milivojevic (Noble)
King, Vardy (Greenwood)

0.5 remaining in the bank.

Draft just changed to:
Pope (Heaton)
Dunk, Walker, Maguire, Robertson (Lundstrom)
Sterling, Salah (c), Tielemans, KDB (Dendoncker)
Wood, Wilson (Greenwood)

Chesty08 · 03-08-2019 12:05am

Pepe has messed things up. Now going with 3 x 4mil defenders (hoping one starts) with VVD & Zinchenko

Midfield of
Salah Pepe KDB Siggy Barkley

Attack of
Kane, King

Not sure worth it

I’ve looked at the 2 x premium and 3 x 4.0m defender thing in the hope just one of the cheap options start.

Edit - the problem I’m having is that I have 12.5m left for the 2 premium defenders.

So I don’t feel like I can risk TAA and Zinchenko because of Gomez and Mendy. Although I really want TAA.

So it leaves me going with VVD and Dave/Luiz and that’s just not very exciting. Although could go Zouma and TAA but Zouma a transfer waiting to happen.

I think that Pepe is quite puntish, Barkley feels like a trap, and KdB (even though I have him myself) is made of glass. Three high risk moves there.

Then again, no guts, no glory! :pac:

Also, with King V Wilson, I always reckon that King did well against the better teams, with Wilson being the better option against weaker ones. Maybe it's because King is more effective on the break, whereas Wilson is a more out and out centre forward? Or maybe I'm just imagining things.

Kane is Kane.

I agree I wanted TAA and I know he was rotation risk. He is much more matured now so I think he starts to ensure Liverpool get a solid start. Start of last season Klopp didn’t rotate. He knew how important a good start was. Players had to bide their time. However I need the 0.5m to get Pepe.

Any number of the players in 6m bracket are puntish / traps. For me I see Barkley starting the start of season. We’ll know more as season progresses and I can easily switch.

I think KdB was rushed back to soon last season, I don’t recall him being injured much before last season. A decent pre season now & he should be alright.

I can see Pepe having a Salahesque season to be honest and I think it’s better to go for it now as players will be scrambling to get him and making harder calls of without him now
