De Bruyne is a doubt to start at the weekend due to lack of match fitness and even if he does start, will likely only get 60-65 minutes. My advice would be to get Aguero and keep Gray, Hazard and Shaw plus your keepers and start from there.

Will be wildcarding early.Foster / Jakupovic Seems to be the Boards template.Shaw / Stones / Kone / Friend / Amat Might swap Shaw for Valenica yet, but I'll be happy enough with either. Stones is a bargain at that price if he starts, which I think he will. Kone is only there on the assumption he moves to Everton, but there are plenty of other 4.5 options if not. I know nothing about Friend, but everyone else has him, so I'm hopping aboard the bandwagon as well. Amat was originally just a placeholder, but it looks like he might actually start now.Redmond / Lamela / Sanchez / Hazard / Capoue Redmond is a bit of a punt, but I think he'll do well at Southampton. Surprised Lamela isn't in more teams. Great Copa America and pre-season form, so should start well. I can't ever see myself picking a team without Alexis in it, and I think Hazard is likely to explode out of the blocks this season. Capoue is filler, but should get some gametime.Gray / Vardy / Aguero Hopping on the bandwagon with Gray as well. I think Leicester attacking cover is almost essential for their opening few games, so Vardy it is. Aguero is Aguero. No Zlatan. I can't justify weakening the rest of the team enough to get him in. Can't really justify not having him either mind...

Benimar wrote: » Your defence probably has one (possibly 2) too many 5m+ defenders, which is killing your midfield. Kante is a waste as he's too expensive for bench fodder and won't score enough to be a 4th mid. DeBruyne is a serious doubt for the weekend, you might hear more on Friday. Pogba surely won't start either and I'm not sold on him as a great FF asset, there are better at his price currently. The nicest thing I could say about your Rooney pick us that it's different!! Other than that it's fine.

Will probably wild card as usual after 3 weeks during the International games at start of September. Would like to upgrade Long, but not easy find someone in that price range that might do as well. Southampton have 2 nice home games v Watford & Sunderland in 1st 3 weeks. Any opinions/ideas to how to improve that squad would be very welcome.
