Thanks agreed i was think maybe kos instead of rio though as arsenal defence will be leaky again especially since its down to the bones as well.
Ya and Koscielny is pretty much nailed on barring injury. I'll be keeping an eye on Bent tho, he's an out and out no 9, Jol might like to utilise Berbatov slightly deeper with Bent up top, could work well for DB & DB

Yup agreed really fancy bent to get 15 league goals, so hopefully Hazard does the business for his DGW

ok need help lads. What you think? Have .5 in bank want couple stronger players but just afraid that i'll miss out if I don't have RVP and end up wildcarding to buy him or something...0 -
Took me over two hours to pick this team, any advice/comments I would really appreciate it.
Mignolet
Ferdinand ----Garrido----Ivanovic
----Zaha----Coutinho----Snodgrass----Hazard----
Anelka----RVP----Solgado
Bench: Bellamy, Baker, McShane
Bench is crap I know, but what can ya do.0 -

Yes I'm mad. Only Hazard from the DGW but I refuse to be held to ransom. I'm uncertain over any of Chelsea's defense starting twice and then keeping a clean sheet. So I've picked the team (or well as close as is possible )that I wanted going into the new season. It's a risk but it's a risk either way. Last year loading up seemed to work well but this season is very different to last season.
While I haven't let myself be held to ransom by Chelsea I have been held to ransom by RVP. Once again a risk either way down to his price and his ownership levels. Many are saying they'll bring him in for GW4 but if my team is doing ok I'd like to be able to hold my wildcard a bit longer if I so wished. I haven't skimped on my forwards though. Soldado and RVP should be in my team for most of the season all going well. Dzeko has been in and out of my drafts the past few weeks but he deserves his place for a few weeks until the rest of the City forwards get up to speed and a bandwagon emerges. He should play and he should score. Shoulda, coulda, woulda...I know :pac:
Going back to my defenders I really have cut corners but I have 3 players I want and have remained pretty much a constant in all my drafts. Koscielny was a nobody in the early weeks while I was championing him for great things. He's nearly @10% ownership now. He's another constant in my team aslong as he's fit and Arsenal don't really capitulate. Coleman may not end up having the greatest defensive capabilities under Martinez but then again they won't be as bad as Wigan as Everton actually have players able to defend. And of course Mickey T. The man I named my team after and our one true hero. He's capable of keeping a clean sheet at home against anyone and can snatch a goal against anyone too. Chester and Ward should provide suitable cover and rotation options on occasion.
Three of the 5 speak for themselves. Mirallas, Walcott and Hazard. A gamble of sorts in Nathan Redmond but I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't have him after all my posturing. If he doesn't pay-off or play another cheapie will make himself known in time and can be rotated with Brady too.
There are a few "weak" people I'll have to rely on every week but the strength elsewhere will hopefully be enough. This is what I've picked and convinced myself will do the business and only time will tell if I've gone full retard by avoiding the DGW.
[Welsh accent]I've only gone and bloody done it[Welsh accent]
I've got the best of both worlds now I think by doing the following:
Coleman -> Ivanovic
Dzeko -> J-Rod
and just because of fixtures Brady -> Whittingham.
RVP should outscore Lukaku over 3 weeks
Dzeko isn't nailed on anyway and by doing the numbers in my head Ivanovic should play both. He could well be RB on Sunday with Cahill and Terry at CB while Azpil could be back on wed so one of the other two possibly Terry actually could be dropped as Cahill might be better able to stop Benteke0 -

I think the opportunity cost of 2 clean sheets outweighs a goal or two from Dzeko. I've a sense about J-Rod too has been in a few drafts of mine. I can't have it all unfortunately when I have RVP.
Hoping Ivanovic starts both games too, and maybe even pops up with a goal! Would ya not think of swapping out Turner?
Haha, just realised i'd swapped Ivanovic out, and put in Cech, so no, don't really want him to score a goal!0 -

I'd rather have RVP get a red card in the second minute :pac:0 -

Hang on, you not just have RVP in as your captain

Haha no I have RVP but Hazard is captain. That's how highly I value Mickey Turner.
I hope against all hope Norwich don't have a DGW because the urge to captain him could be detrimental.0 -

Attempt #1
Good rotating keepers, 3 solid defenders (while Rafael is injured, Jones should play), 4 good midfielders (obv. Westwood goes after double), two strikers with double week, and Dzeko is the best valued player this season, IMO.0 -

You could easily free up 1.0 by putting in a 4.5 keeper for rotation (Boruc, Westwood just to name two).
You've a lot of money tied up in defence which would be better invested elsewhere. Personally see Jones as too much of a rotation risk and not worth 6.0 at all. Fabio / Jones / Evans / Smalling are all possibilities, not to mention our new man Varela.. Also the fact that United have a horrible opening few weeks so will definitely not be keeping clean sheets
Luiz is out for the first game
Kagawa is too much of a rotation in my opinion risk despite being good value at 8.0.. This weekend Dizzy Moyes can choose any from Valencia, Zaha, Januzaj, Kagawa, Giggs, and potentially Nani. Kagawa is just back from midweek international duty so if he does play, I can't see him on for the full 90.
I see you have 5 DGW players, so unless you plan on using your wild card after GW2 you're screwed for GW3..0 -
