Cabella or de Jong I would guess.

Thanks, I'm looking for a way to get Hazard in and downgrading Eriksen to de Jong is an option to free up funds.

Seems a good few have Sanchez in their teams and he may hit the ground running but i think Ozil is better value at 1.5m cheaper. He has had a season settling in and with Sanchez signed he can move to his best position behind the striker. He is also an assist machine i think he will score very high. I can't see Sanchez scoring so many more points to justify the extra 1.5m. He may miss the first 2 or 3 games so i won't put him in straight away.

I think Wenger indicated that he would rest some (or all?! Can't remember) of the German contingent at the start of the season. So Ozil may not be a good idea for the first few weeks.

Chambers decent signing for the gooners

Erikkson i thought was going to be my gem for 8.0 after the way he finished last season. Look's like from pre season Lamela has done well in his position which is annoying. Lamela if producing his Roma form is a bargain but he is a big risk. What do people think surely Erikkson will be first choice this season?

What about Schurrle lads? 7.5m ... worth a risk?...

Matic-Fabregas
Schurrle - Oscar - Hazard
Costa

Can't gurantee him starting with Willian & Salah there.

He'd be unbelievable value if you could guarantee he'd start.

I think Hazard will go very close to being the top points scorer overall this season. Fabreagas their are questions how deep will he play, will he be rotated and he is injury prone.

Hazard Free's, penalties, scores and finally has a striker who can score to assist.

Have to agree here, once confirmed on penalties he will be a must have, well worth the extra million. I dumped Costa to get him back in.

Nearing my final team selection, and could do with some advice. Basically it comes down to having 15mil for a striker and a midfielder.

So its a) giroud + arnie/nolan/siggy

Or

silva/fabregas + ings/Austin/jelavic.

Rest of my front 7 is Mata sanchez Eriksen Rooney dzeko.

a) Siggy + giroud for me.

Cesc Fibreglass

He'll spend 30% of the season injured

Hazard definitely worth forking out the extra mil for

I was just looking over Fabregas previous stats and thinking about a switch from Hazard to Fabregas to save £1m. In 2009/10 (a long time ago - granted) he got 15 goals and 15 assists in 2188 minutes.

Does anyone know if he was on penalties that year? He never came close to that many goals in any other season but his assists were always very consistent. His assists high was 20.

3 of his goals were pens.

Aston Villa's fixtures after first 3 weeks:

GW4 Liverpool A
GW5 Arsenal H
GW6 Chelsea A
GW7 Man City H
GW8 Everton A
GW9 QPR A
GW10 Spurs H

That's 7 in a row that you would arguably be benching every player. I know people are selecting the likes of Bent or Vlaar but in reality you're not going to be rotating them during these weeks. I know people are getting them in because they're cheap but just thinking about price changes, during this run I reckon they could struggle to get a single clean sheet, and with Vlaar's high ownership, it could be in these weeks that he starts getting sold. I'd prefer to gamble on a Santon/de Laet/Chester/O'Shea/Wisdom or even someone like Yoshida if he plays.

Just a caveat to Vlaar owners, I could be proved completely wrong. Just looking at the high-ownership players I reckon he's one of the first at risk of a price drop.

newcastle, sunderland, stoke, swansea, southampton, burnley, wba, qpr all better options for 4.5 defenders if looking at the first 8 fixtures.

Harry says he's interested in bringing Van der Vaart back to the PL. Was a great FPL option in his Spurs days.

As arry would say triffic option .He's a top top pro great attitude.

Opinions of this

Mannone
Krul

Shaw
Debuchy
Wisdom
Upson
Targett

Mata
Hazard
Sanchez
Sigurdsson

Rooney
Giroud
Dzeko

My subs aren't great and I am planning on playing a 4.0m defender every week and just rotating with who has the best fixture but other than that I think its a great team especially if Giroud and Dzeko keep their places, was planning on RVP but Rooney has looked great so far in pre season plus it looks like both will play as strikers anyway, Rooney is bargain at 10.5m if hes playing up top

Sanchez, Mata and Hazard are the pick of the midfielders in the game and with Sigurdsson already scoring goals for Swansea I think I;m onto a winner with this team

I think Mata, Sanchez and Hazard are the

Dr. Bre

breaking news! Liverpool's agreement to sign Remy has fallen thru when they discovered that he doesn't play for Southampton

Still definitely option1 for me, not even close
