You can auto select a team and fix it up when you have the time, that's what I've done as well, you'll see the option when you get to that stage.

Thanks
Is it unlimited transfers before the season starts? Can players rise and fall in price?

Yes, unlimited transfers before week 1, no price changes will occur until the first day of the season. I haven't done it yet myself but it's probably a good idea to have a look at the rate my team thread where people will be posting draft teams, a lot of the players who are coming up a lot there will be the likely risers once the season starts.

Anyone thinking of using any of the new "plays" in GW1.

Tempted by Costa/Hazzard captain Triple points

Even if we some how knew there would not be a DGW this season you would be much better off waiting for a good Aguero week. 253 is the only one I would be tempted to use during a regular week.

Backstreet Moyes · 23-07-2015 05:07PM

Looking at Bournemouth's start i think i need to get in somebody from their team.

What;s the thoughts Ritchie or Wilson.

Both absolutely viable.

I've Wilson in at the minute, but may switch to Ritchie so I can get Kane/Benteke in.

NoviGlitzko · 23-07-2015 06:10PM

Going with Richie myself. Pound for pound did more than Wilson did last season. You just have to make up your mind is it the extra 0.5.

I'd only use the 253 one in gw1

I think that if that's to be used early GW2 is the week as well

GLaDOS · 23-07-2015 07:31PM

I honestly might keep the 253 bonus til the very last GW. Means getting in a decent 5th midfielder without wrecking the team for future GWs. Otherwise I might just use it when a selection crisis looms and I only have 2 defenders.

That's my plan too as long as I don't have a defensive crisis one week. Using it another week you have to plan on how to fix it too.

The only problem there is rotation and chances are not all your front 8 will start.

There will be at least 2 and more than likely 3 dgws and more teams involved than last year. Carling cup final teams will be rescheduled for a dgw aswell as fa cup qf which clashes with league games this season unlike last year and the fa cup semis.

I'd imagine we'll see a good few but my point was even if we knew there wasn't going to be any some how it still wouldn't be the time to use it not that there wouldn't actually be any dgws some how. Hopefully it's a terrible January and we get a few monster dgws to use our chips for!

Good point. Lots to think about when using it alright.

Slattsy · 23-07-2015 08:58PM

Is Valencia a good option as a very attack minded player? Manu decent fixtures, too.

True. Maybe the week before the wildcard could be an option.

Not guaranteed of gametime, especially with the arrival of Damian, but if he does get a run in the team, he will definitely be one to watch.

GLaDOS · 23-07-2015 09:19PM

LVG said Valencia would be the starting rb for united.

Not guaranteed long term though.

Slattsy · 23-07-2015 09:25PM

Want an attacking full back, dont want Clyne though, Bellerin nailed or will Debuchy fight it out with him.

Shaw is flying in pre season and United should be solid with Schneiderlen in front of the back 4.

Bellerin was apparently made assurances of his place in the first team by wenger. He should be nailed on to start anyway, and will be first choice right back barring any dip in form or injury

That's true! Probably wouldn't want him one way or another anyway.

Ozil or Walcott??

I get the Walcott love but not sure he will get enough games

hufpc8w3adnk65 · 23-07-2015 10:17PM

Is the app not working from last season for anyone else or is there a new app out?
On Apple here!

I'm swaying that way myself, saving O.5 is crucial.

Anyone think it could be worth starting the season with Jovetic with Bony injured and Aguero unfit?

These sort of players are very very rarely worth the risk.
