(A) Firmino Ibra Tadic

(B) Sanchez Vardy Redmond

Currently having a debate with myself over which of these options is better. It's going to be a long week

This is my biggest decision too.
Leaning towards the former as it gives me the chance to get Firmino in one move

Thinking about it now
The way Arsenal arse all are going to line up maybe it would make more sense to go with firminio week one and then see about a switch to Alli ?

Yeah I think I'll start off with Firmino as I'm not sure about going with Alli when I already have Kane.

My current draft has 15 teams represented!

Foster Jaku
Valencia Friend Kone Souare Byram
Hazard Firmino Redmond Routledge Capuoue
Aguero Kane Vardy

Gray is a tough one. Quite high ownership so could hurt if he explodes. But is he likely too. Williams will still be at Swansea come Sat you would expect so that's one of the reasons I was interested gone.

I'm still thinking of toughing it out with the Aguero Ibra Vardy show. I'm open to wildcarding as early as GW3.

Iused2likebusts · 08-08-2016 09:11PM

I'm going with
Foster jakupovic
Kone mee friend Valencia naughton
Hazard firmino Sanchez Townsend Redmond
Aguero gray Carroll
I'm really only looking at the first 4 weeks as I'll most likely wildcard. Happy to go with a strong front 8 as I think gw 2 is a problem due to the fixtures. I'll have Carroll on the bench in gw 1 I'll want him for gw 2. Gw 2 I'll bench either Townsend or Redmond. No utd attacking coverage is an issue but I wouldn't captain zlatan in gw 1 or 2 and I wanted mikhitaryan but he didn't start yesterday so not going to risk him. I'd imagine my transfer for gw 3 will be a utd attacker .

mada999 · 08-08-2016 09:26PM

Is Mkhitaryan deffo going to start for UTD ? did he start many pre-season games ?

Dues Bellator · 08-08-2016 09:30PM

Mkhitaryan is a big worry for me will he be a starter along with Terry lads id appreciate if you gave my team the once over see if im missing something.

manual_man · 08-08-2016 09:41PM

Heaton Jaku
Valencia Koné Friend Evans 4.0
Hazard Firmino Sanchez Routledge 4.5
Aguero Vardy Gray

Quite liking the look of this team. No Ibra and no Spurs attacker obviously stand out, but I've alot of big hitters. A cheap enough back line, and Routledge the cheapie mid to accommodate all of this. Very tempted to just go with this and not log back in til kick-off Saturday barring any injury news

Looks decent. For 9.5 I'd prob play safe for now and go for Martial for utd cover as it's much of a muchness if you are liking mkhitaryan anyway only a safer option. I think both will start though.

I'd downgrade one of your def and upgrade one of smith / Amat because you could end up with just 3 playing defenders which is far from ideal.

Terry is nailed IMO, at least until Zouma is back. Baines to stones plus Smith to a 4.5 would be the change to make.

SantryRed · 08-08-2016 09:45PM

I just keep messing with my team at the minute and it has me going insane!

Foster Jaku
Shaw Mee Kone Funes Mori Smith
Sanchez Hazard Redmond Lamela Capoue
Vardy Aguero Gray

I just can't decide on what to do. Keep moving my plans around and just can't come to a finishing product atm. The big decision is if Ibrahimovic is needed or not.

Are you comfortable playing 2 of Sunderland, Middlesborough, West Brom in defence regularly?

I've not seen anything of Hazard to tempt me back. Could very well be wrong but for that money you got to be nailed on for mega points.

Squad still looks a little skinny

Mr.Prodston · 08-08-2016 10:00PM

Just played around seriously for first time in weeks.

Heaton - Jaku
Valencia - Evans - Friend - Kone - Targett
Hazard - Spacecraft - Mirallas - Redmond - Capoue
Aguero - Ibra - Vardy

It'd be the first time I'd ever own Vardy :pac:

Sure it's top heavy but it's not a final cut. Ideally I'll move towards a team with less risks in case a number of them don't start.

Evans has been repeatedly mentioned with Arsenal too I think so could be a clever early inclusion. If I had another 0.5 Jaku would go to Foster.

I want Ayew in my team but it's probably wise to see how he'll fit in at West Ham. Mirallas and Redmond are probably a little edgy when including both along with Andros.

Right newest draft folkes

Foster
Stones terry shaw
Tadic dier lamela mane
Kun zlat Carroll

Subs
Jaku mc auley iwobi smith.

Do your best lads I need help this year

DipClub · 08-08-2016 10:04PM

Lloris (Robinson)
Valencia Sagna Morgan Shaw (Smith)
Barkley Willian Mahrez (Kouyate Fletcher)
Aguero Kane Long

Not sure about playing 4 at the back and wondering if 2 Man Utd defenders is risky. Is Mahrez worth 9.5 this year?

take out dier he is a holding midfielder. Last year he was classed as a def so he was gettin all those clean sheet points. Id try and work sanchez or hazard into your midfield.

Yep.

Haz looks extremely sharp. I reckon he'll be a must-have again this season. Although I confess Oscar is also tempting me - 7.5M and on pens if he's a guaranteed starter could prove ridiculous value.

Squad a bit skinny but that's the price you have to pay to fit in more of the big boys

remoteboy · 08-08-2016 10:12PM

Valdes / Jakupovic

Stones / Shaw / Evans / Friend / Paredes

Hazard / Mahrez / Tadic / Phillips / Kightly

Kun / Ibra / Gray

Firmino and Sanchez calling out to me but not sure who I'd sacrifice.

no I dont think so. I had vardy up till the weekend but sanchez starting changes everything for me.

I don't have any Leicester either. If they go back to their free scoring ways of early last season, I'm happy to pick up a week or two late. Mahrez doesn't seem committed to me and Vardy rarely got double digit hauls before the ones against Sunderland and Everton at the end. Absolute worst case scenario, he hits a hat trick and virtually no one has him captain anyway

I have Mahrez but only until another premium mid raises their head. I think I'll be keeping Vardy for a while.
