Brief tinker with all the Tadic love getting in my head.....

Which is better?

A
Foster/Jak
Terry, Shaw, Friend, Souare, Smith
Hazard, Mahrez, Andros, Redmond, Leko
Agüero, Ibrahimovic, Gray

B
Foster/Jak
Terry, Stones, Friend, Souare, Smith
Hazard, Mahrez, Tadic, Feghouli, Leko
Agüero, Ibrahimovic, Gray

No mids under 6.0 that really inspire much confidence is the problem.

Umm, it's a tough one, the problem with B is the lack of utd cover at the back, this under Mourinho is an absolute must for me, and have strongly considered doubling up with DDG and Shaw.

Solid team, only issue for me would be Wasilewski. I doubt he'll play. Maybe Brad Smith would be a better pick for a 4m defender. Otherwise can't really fault it.

Good feedback, any old 4.0 is what i was after really.

I dont see the point of having Kante - as he has such high ownership he may drop too, but mainly he wont score many points. Hard to call if Valencia will start too? Maybe downgrade your defence a bit as your mid is weak. I would go smith over Wasi as he won't play I don't think.

Smith won't play either while at least Wasi will play GW1

you reckon Ake will start? Is the new lad hernandez not a CB? Hard to call who will play between him and Wasi.

Daniels will play LB surely?
Hmm didn't know Leicester signed another CB, I'm not going with a 4.0 anyway

Scorpion Sting · 05-08-2016 05:32PM

Hernandez is likely to play, Wasi benched.

havI got hazard and mahrez along with Kun and zlatan is making the rest of the front 8 tricky
That extra .5 for hazard compared to some others is a real pain ! He may not make the final cut cos I'm now leaning toward a strong front 8 for first 3 game weeks as Grays fixtures are not exactly brilliant and I would prefer not so start Redmond gw 2 either if I go for him over tadic
I wouldn't bench tadic as he is on pens possibly

JakeArmitage · 05-08-2016 07:35PM

How can this be bettered? I think I'm settled on the above, I have a few concerns

1. Should I upgrade Lukaku and dgrade in midfield/defence to get in Zlatan

2. Have I picked the right 10.0/9.5 midfielder? Hkmitaryan stats were great last year but hes new to the league and Hazard was awful last year, I was very tempted to get in Mahrez or Payet, Martial is another one on the radar. I don't expect Leicester to be as good this year , no one does so Mahrez wont score as highly

UPDATE

Since Ayew will probably be leaving Swansea plus the fact they have signed Llorente , Ayew has been swapped for Siggy

Looks good, my only comment was going to be replace Ayew with Siggy because he's likely very unsettled at the moment even if he does stay, plus they just signed Llorente and Ayew returns best when up top. Siggy has set-pieces and is generally just a solid fantasy player.

Foster Jakupovic
Taylor Friend Shaw Souare Gabriel

Hazard Eriksen Delofeu Redmond Capoue

Ibra Kun Musa

Comments on this anyone? Plan on using my wild card early so only looking at first 3 GWs. Not afraid of punting on Redmond/Musa given their fairly kind fixtures, if any of the 5.5-6.5m mids/strikers deliver in GW1 I can always offload them as to not miss rises... although hopefully they are the 2 punts that deliver :pac: Not keen on Taylor but they have Hull in GW2.

You won't be leaving anything on the bench anyway.

Too much invested in 4 players but if it works out you'll be a hero. Too risky for me.

I think your midfield is an uncertainty so is musa its definitely missing one of the 9.5 priced midfielders, Mahrez, MK, Martial or Payet, one or more of them is going to tear it up

The problem with this type of team is that if any mid over 8m fires GW1 you are in trouble.

It has GW2 wildcard written all over it.

All good except Downing for me - didn't exactly rip it up in the Championship so would be too confident he'll have any impact in the PL.

I think you should switch your 4.5 mid. Jedinak is not likely to start, I think Pardew will go with McArthur and Cabaye against West Brom. Capoue seems to be the man for the bench fodder midfield pick. Rest of the team is pretty good.

CSF · 06-08-2016 10:07AM

Rumours Jedinak is Villa bound.

km79 · 06-08-2016 10:31AM

right my first and nearly final draft bar switching out a few mids and maybe defenders in same price range
this is a team for game weeks 1-3 ONLY I will be wildcarding after that due to the incredible amount of uncertainty this year
game week 2 has me worried though as I'll have both VVD and redmond away to united which is far from ideal
I do have .5 kept back in case redmond needs to go and I could bring in Gerard D
I've left hazard too but mahrez could also become him with that .5
I have also looked at tadic and Townsend instead of siggy and redmond BUT palace are away to spurs GW2 while Swansea are home to hull
I'm not buying into the lamela hype either. he did the same last year in preseason

Foster /Jaku
Shaw VvD Friend Kone Wilson
Mahrez Alli siggy Redmond Capoue
Kun Zlatan Gray

what ye think ?
