Arnold Tanzarian wrote: » Here, its pretty obvious you havent an actual clue about united's formation. Young is basically going to operate as a LM , LWB (hardly any defensive duties) when defending, he will be their only outlet on the wing, they will depend on him to dominate that side of the field and he has delivered massively in pre season against quality opposition such as roma, inter and real madrid so yeah in my opinion a guy who is gauranteed to start the first month at a club like united with those fixtures are so easy is quite brilliant value actually at 5.5! Anyone who does not agree thats ok - just watch him rake me in those points in the first 6 gameweeks, while i transfer him back out after those games ! You are comparing him with coleman !?!? a guy who plays as a rigid Full back in a 433 with another winger in front of him!? Coleman is part of a defensive united , a back 4 , he has huge ability and pace , thats what gets him into attacking positions, not the position he actually plays. Young will play in a 3-4-1-2 formation , occupying the left flank, with little defensive responsibilty. Just informing you there on some basics about formations mate so ya know for future

Dearg81 wrote: » Yea he was superb against Dortmund the other day. He played behind Sturridge in the first half and played some great through balls. He had a terrible shot to goal ratio last season so that can only improve and I expect him to get a lot more assists this season. The problem in fpl terms is that Liverpool change formation a lot and Coutinho can go from playing in the hole to playing deep as a link up player which will be annoying. If he starts playing behind Sturridge regularly though he'll be straight into my team. To answer the original question I would go for Eriksen as he has shown the form consistently and you know what your getting from him.

FWIW, I wouldn't bring it into an actual FF debate, I wasn't using that to say I was right and he was wrong (everyones opinion is as valid as the next whether you won the thing last year or are starting out for the very first time), I was using it in response to the condescending manner he was using towards me, when he clearly is in no position to do so.

I am a united fanatic and in general a premiership fanatic but im not by any means a fantasy football fanatic as you rightly guessed from previous scores, but what got me into these threads is that im after entering a league this year for the first year ever for actual real money amongst my friends (winner will receive over 500 approx) so i plan to be as fanatical as possible this year and hopefully i will drastically improve my score from previous years, I would by in large consider myself a bit of a footie nerd , whether this translates into ff success we shall see. I will continue posting and reading the thread . Sorry about the young fiasco was bit childish on my behalf alright

FHFC wrote: » These quotes from Rodgers after the Dortmund game indicate that he'll continue in the off the striker role, and one of the main reasons I'm thinking of playing him, for GW1 at least, ahead of Eriksen/Lamella. ‘He is so gifted and the fans appreciated it because of the level of the opponent,’ said Rodgers. ‘His ability is just magical. His ability to get out of tight situations, his view of the game. That’s his best position too — playing between the lines, he tempts defenders out. ‘You saw that with the ball he played around the corner for the first goal. It’s about sustainability with him now. He’s lit up this country with his quality. We are now going on to a big stage in Champions League and he will have chance to show that there, too.’ Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2721057/Daniel-Sturridge-Dejan-Lovren-score-Liverpool-cruise-4-0-win-Borussia-Dortmund-final-pre-season-game.html#ixzz3AJ6rTo9M
