Not sure if this is too early but here it is!

Potentially an early wildcard depending on how far teams go in Europe.

Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Wolves are expected to be given extra time off by the Premier League and start next season late, should they go into the latter stages of their respective European competitions.

Is Gomez an option for Liverpool defence? Regular starter?

What are peoples thoughts on the TAA/Robbo double up, have been on it since the first draft but its the only place I can get money to upgrade elsewhere.

eh i dunno

Alli/Doherty or Son/Bavies?
Personally I'm such a fan of Son and think his ceiling is higher than Allis. So I'd prefer the latter. But I'd be in the minority on that choice I imagine.

Based on nothing but opinion, but I can't see Doherty attacking as freely as he did with Wolves. Spurs have a different style of play to Wolves.

Plus he's in a back 4 compared to a back 5 and he doesn't look as good in a back four when playing for ireland

One of my biggest conundrums. Unless you badly need the 1 million elsewhere, it might be better to assume he is, and trade down if Doherty doesn’t become a huge attacking option.

Yeah that'll change after the first deadline. And then you'll have the "points" tab for the current week. With "My Team" for the upcoming GW.

thanks, last thing I need is missing out on week one

probably a silly question, I've picked a team, but the home page says "pick team" and not "my team". is it always the same before week one?

Can you really say he is finding form with a six week break to the last game?

No but I think the point is that he has adjusted to the league now. He was decent before the corona break too, I saw him win a fa cup match by himself. He should be 1 of the best 5.5 midfielders.

What i mean is that his overall low numbers last season could possibly be explained by a settling in period at the start. The tail end of the season could be a sign of where he'll be at now.

Similar thinking has me staying away from Leicester bar Justin despite their juicy fixtures- think they're overpriced based on how good they were pre-lockdown

All of ASM's points came at the end of the season which means he's finding form. 24, ideal age to step up.

Has Wilson who can actually find the net.

Main attacking spark in his team.

Better Xg/Xa than any nailed starters in his price bracket.

Armstrong the best alternative but i prefer Adams as a cheap attacking Saints asset (due to value and lack of strikers) and don't want to over invest in Soton.

Keita might be the other one who interests me at that price but I've no Pool spots and he's not nailed. Otherwise maybe an upgrade to Trossard or Pereira but not sure they justify the extra 0.5 (though I've a sneaky suspicion Tross could come good).

That's my train of thought on having ASM

I'm biased, so I like this counter argument:

"He missed 14 games via injuries, which meant he only started 20 PL games. Prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt there given it was his 1st season. He also started 34 L1 games for Nice in 18/19 and no history of injuries.
Wilson is on a different level to Joelinton."

Watkins in at 6m. Could represent some good value

While they rotate well I’m not sure of the merit of having more than 1 newcastle player in the squad seeing as alot will have ASM or Wilson

Thanks for that. Taylor and Lacellies it is

PEA + fodder or Ings + Pepe ?

Anyone care to hazzard a guess what wolves will do with the RWB slot.

Im currently considering neto looked good in a few games i saw he played but far from a guaranteed starter.

But if Traore got converted into that spot then there is room for him higher up the pitch.

Wolves have good fixtures also

It’s a real shame (and surprise to me) that Reece James isn’t nailed.

If Lampard didn’t put Azpilicueta central last season then he’ll never do it.

Kante in front of - James, Azpilicueta, Silva, Chilwell looks pretty good to me.

I’m guessing Azpilicueta will fill in at LB til Chilwell is available but then who knows what happens to the RB slot. Maybe James will get a chance to cement it while Chilwell is out but Azpilicueta could easily be moved across to RB at that stage.

Anyone with a better understanding of the Chelsea FB slots ?

Currently falling into the trap of selecting Cilson over Mitrovic.

EDIT: back out of that trap!

Have money to spare after switching Minamino -> Kilch. I kind of still want to include Minamino but I think he will only start 1 of the first 3 games so it really would only be a 1 week punt. The same price as Greenwood though, so an easy transfer there and entry into Utd team.

Someone called him it here a few days ago and I think we should stick with calling him JamRod, could be a bit of craic when the price change thread gets going too!

Has to be HamRod (look it up on Urban Dictionary!)

100%, outscored by Shelvey.

He is entertaining though
