    This is what I have gone with as a first attempt. No cash left in the bank. Any comments/points for improvement would be great. Thanks.

    Ok, here we go again.

    Nice team, I have 6 or 7 of the same starting 11, although I would be wary of spending £7m on De Jong and having him on your bench... even against City. Jovetic is too much of a gamble for me, and you have two Leicester defenders which I wouldn't go near with their fixtures. If Jovetic doesn't play you are basically playing with the bare 11, and if you are forced to play either Leicester defender you could easily pull in minus figures. There are much better options than De Laet.

    Do you think Van Anholt has nailed down a spot? I don't know much about Sunderland players but currently have O'Shea in there as they rotate well with other players on my team. He got 5 goals/3 assists last year for Vitesse which is a better return than O'Shea. Does he get forward a bit from left back? If he looks like starting I would happily swap.

    Scratch that, just saw the FFS article - he's in. http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2014/07/30/moving-target-patrick-van-aanholt/

    Yeah, I was surprised by his lack of ownership considering he has shown he can get forward. Hoping he creeps in under the radar come game week and nets me a few points.

    Any recommendations for a 4.5m that gets forward then? I was considering Vlaar but unsure if he's really worth it.

    RE: Jovetic, It's a risk I'm willing to take given the striker drought at City right now due to injury and his pre-season form (which netted 5 goals I think). We'll see in the Community Shield who plays and that should give a better idea.

    Barring the signing of another LB (Marcos Alonso) he should be nailed on.

    You can save money by playing Krul with Mannone or De Gea with a 4.0m reserve keeper.

    Wouldn't have confidence in any of your defenders for a start and I don't see Nugent reaching anywhere near 20 goals this season.

    I like it, can't pay that much for yaya personally.
    Defence is quite weak

    Toure -> Hazard
    Vlaar -> Evans/Davies

    Begovic 5.0M
    Baines 7.0m
    Lovren 5.5M
    Shaw 6.0M
    Mirallas 7.5M
    Can 5.5M
    Nasri 8.5M
    Hazard 10.0M
    Weimann 5.5M

    Ward 5.0M

    Set up 3-4-3 at the moment but could be 4-3-3. Have not decided. Kept with Costa and Shaw but still on the fence if they will be on my final team. Hazard is captain for now

    I think the 3 big hitters in midfield (along with Coleman) are compromising the rest of your team - there's a lot of money spent on 4 players. I don't think El Ahmadi, Long or Bruce should be starters in anyones team. There's a lot of good midfielders at 9.0m, I'd look at some of those to save money, and would look at reinvesting it throughout the rest of your team.

    I presume that's a typo for Sakho, and you mean 5.5? Either way, I think you have too much money sitting on your bench. I'd downgrade those players and look at upgrading Wiemann and Can.

    Ya should be 5.5. Depending on the style I will go for I am going to downgrade the subs. Can is one that could go Thanks

    Better, in my opinion.

    I still wouldn't have Coleman. If you want a big hitting Everton defender, I'd go with Baines. Coleman missed the preseason tour due to a hammy, and I'm not sure how much preseason he's played. I'd actually be more inclined to go with Terry over either Baines or Coleman, as Chelsea have a much nicer start, plus he's 0.5m cheaper.

    Coleman wasn't even on the bench for their friendly with Celta Vigo this week. Don't know much other detail apart from that.

    How about instead of posting your teams here, you actually explain why you've picked the players you've picked?
