Strong team. A little "different" too. Which is not bad
.
How about Pieters instead of Shawcross? You'd save £0.5m.
I'd get a £4.5m MF instead of JWP.
3 United sounds a lot with their current form. But they should improve...
No Chelsea defensive cover? Mourinho teams generally are very solid at the back. That said they look very attacking this year... Maybe they won't be as strong as last year at the back. I remember it took them time to settle at the back though.I may be using my Wildcard after the Break and I would appreciate and comments .
FROM
De Gea £5.5 Myhill £4.0
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Jagielka £5.5 Hutton £4.0
Ramsey £9.0 Fábregas £9.1 Mata £8.9 Henderson £6.0 Wanyama £4.5
Rooney £10.5 Diego Costa £10.5 Bony £8.5
BANK £0.0
TO
De Gea £5.5 Krul £4.5
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Ivanovic £7.2 Hutton £4.0
Sigurdsson £6.5 Fábregas £9.1 Mata £8.9 Henderson £6.0 Huddlestone £5.5
Falcao £11.0 Diego Costa £10.5 Diouf £6.4
BANK £0.9
What's your plan with your front 8? Rotate Huddlestone and DiouF? If I were you I'd avoid selection headaches and go for a £4.5m midfielder (Boyd at £4.4m actually stands out as the best current bench fodder candidate). With £0.9m in the bank I'd upgrade Diouf to Welbeck, he could be lethal at Arsenal.
Finally I'm not sure but I think your keepers don't rotate greatly. I guess you could save £0.5m-£1m from your keepers by getting a better Krul-rotating keeper in place of De Gea. You could also save £0.5m by getting a second £4m def.
If I add everything up. £0.9m in the bank + £1m from Huddlestone to a £4.5m 5th MF + 2 x £0.5m from keeper & defense - £0.5m for Welbeck = £2.4m. Isn't that enough for a Henderson to Sterling upgrade? Think you'll still be £0.3m short. Getting a £4.5m second keeper would allow that move (Sunderland's Mannone who rotate perfectly with Krul may be one solution).OR
De Gea £5.5 Krul £4.5
Clyne £5.0 Coloccini £4.5 Wilson £4.5 Azpilicueta £6.0 Hutton £4.0
Ramsey £9.0 Fábregas £9.1 Sterling £8.7 Sigurdsson £6.5 King £4.5
Diouf £6.4 Diego Costa £10.5 Falcao £11.0
BANK £0.3
I like this one much more. I'd still try get Welbeck for Diouf. You'd need to find £0.2m. Downgrading De Gea would solve that.De Gea£5.5 Krul£4.5
Clyne£5.0 Coloccini£4.5 Wilson£4.5 Ivanovic£7.2 Hutton£4.0
Ramsey£9.0 Fábregas£9.1 Sterling£8.7 Sigurdsson£6.5 King£4.5
Diouf£6.4 Diego Costa£10.5 Balotelli£10.0
I can play
3-4-3
3-5-2
4-4-2
4-3-3
So its looking quite good , Comments please
How much in the bank for that one?
I'd stay clear off Balotelli. Too unpredictable.
What's the story with this Diouf favourite of yours? Is it only me or...) Neve rreally heard about him...
Again downgrading De Gea would allow upgrading Balotelli and/or Diouf.Here my wild card opinions please
Krul. Elliot.
Wilson. Coloccini. Wisdom Moore Hutton
Ramsey fabragas. Sigurdsson. Lamela king.
Costa ageuro falcao
Exciting strikeforce at the expense of the defense. That's gonna be the "problem" of this dream forward line. The good thing though is that you can easily revert to a different tactic over 2 GWs by selling 1 of them if needs be.
If I were to go for it, I'd have a thorough analysis of the next 4 fixtures in absolute priority (basically up to the next international break) and the next 4 after that in secondary priority (to the November international break) so that you have a balanced rotating strong enough defense over this period. You might have done so already but if you haven't that's what I'd do.Currently under WC (0.2 in bank) and recent thoughts are:
Krul + (4.0 GK)
Ivanovic | Kompany + (wisdom | Duff | Moore)
Siggy | Fabregas | Sterling | Lamela + (4.5 - King/Marney)
D.Costa | Aguero | Welbeck
Any opinions are appreciated!!!
Ah. A different setting. That's interesting.
Does this squad means £0.0m in the bank? If it doesn't I'd try get a rotating £4.5m second GK.
Isn't Demichelis a guaranteed starter at City? It could allow you save £0.5m.
I'm not sure about Lamela but if he finds form and keep his position behind the strike rhe may become very interesting FF wise.
Finally no United attacking cover? Are you waiting to see if they can hit form? Or you just don't trust them?aligator_am wrote: »Am sorely tempted to wildcard, this is the squad I was thinking of lashing together, will leave me with 0 in the bank.
Not sure Blind is a good FF pick. Sounds to me as a lost £1m you could spend somewhere else.
I don't know if Naismith will keep his starting position at Everton and more importantly his form. If he does he's a steal. If he doesn't Welbeck might be. Getting a £5.0m def instead of Shawcross (staying at Stoke, Pieters for example) and £1.0m for Blind would allow you that move.
Finally, I don't really like having a non-playing second keeper. And Krul isn't absoulte safety either. But last year with all my good ideas I made a mess of my keepers combos and just hardly scored more from my playing keeper than from my benched one so take that with a good pinch of salt

Good analysis.
Re keepers I will he going with Krul and Elliot. If Krul gets injured then he will be replaced by Elliot so no transfer required.
Also means no rotation. Saves money and no worries about leaving points on the bench.0 -

I generally don't like this tactics but considering all the pts I left on the bench last year and the saved cash you're really tempting me now. 0 -

Some solid advice, cheers....Think I'll go with courtois as my chelsea defensive but he'll be my only playing keeper. Might try and make up .2m before the end of the wildcard to get another in.0 -

Any Liverpool fans got an opinion on Sterling. I think he is fantastic and will score very well i feel like i need him. Just a Liverpool friend thinks with Coutinho, Markovic and Lallana that he may not start every game.
Show me a top midfielder that will start every game
Chelsea : Jose will have us pulling out our hair soon enough.
Arsenal : So many options and more to come, when Walcott returns, that there's bound to be rotation
City: Arguably not as much direct head to head competition as the above two but players will be rested either side of CL.
Liverpool: CL is going to be a strain and a young lad like Sterling will be doing well to play all CL & PL. I would say Rodgers is the least likely manager to rotate though. He played Suarez for every minute (bar 3 iirc) when he came back last year. Absolute madness (but FPL gold) considering they had a lot of games won with half an hour to go. Uruguay got punished for that.
I'd love to put United up there...... No CL will be a big plus for us.
I'll leave you alone now

I would love to put United players in there but i just don't have a clue what;s going to happen. With Herrera, Blind and Di Maria supplying Mata he would be an assist machine setting up Rooney, RVP or Falcao.
My big sorry is we could see Mata benched and Rooney dropping deeper.0 -
