Fitness worries aside, Team overall looks fairly well balanced I think. 0.5 in the bank to do Lukaku->Benteke might be useful for gw2... Also don't be surprised if you need to use a transfer soon to shift Walcott out. If you need/want to free up 0.5 I might suggest Cedric->4.5def - Cedric has competition from Cuco Martina for his place, and honestly I'm not convinced of S'hamptons defensive prospects with Alderweireld/Clyne/Schneiderlin all having left Edit: Cedric->4.5, Walcott->Arsenal8.5, Lukaku->Benteke, Azpi->Mert/Bellerin and Butland->Courtois and I think you'd be looking VERY strong longer term

I don't risk to say yes, but I also don't risk to say no. "On Friday at the next press conference I think I will tell you again that I don’t know. But we have two other strikers, one to play and one to come off the bench."

Courtois ---Mertesacker----Huth----Clyne Ritchie--Walcott--Depay---Hazard (c) Rooney----Benteke----Pelle Subs: Schwarzer, Wanyama, Baker, O'Shea. Probably pretty stupid having a Liverpool player in defence. Maybe Kolorov for Clyne? Not too happy with Baker or O'Shea either...t
Paully D wrote: » Wanyama should never be a starter in any team IMO. He's not a good FPL player at all. I'd even urge caution using him as the £4.5m placeholder due to his high ownership which means he could be ripe for a price drop if he's transferred out en masse. From your team I'd definitely be starting Johnson over him and getting him out for a lower owned £4.5m for the bench. Despite Pulis being at the helm, West Brom have an awful, awful start. You could get Lescott out for a £4.5m defender and most likely end up with a higher return over the first few weeks and then use the extra £0.5m to turn Taylor into a £4.5m every week starter in the process. Have a look at the likes of Huth, Coates, Martin.

I also have 2.5m in the bank. AKA the Aguero fund. Canot wait for tomorrow. I'm not sure if I'm more excited for the actual football or for the FPL rollercoaster :P
FHFC wrote: » No, play the first note Dougal. The fúcking first one.... This is my Aguero team. I like my teams like my women, a wee bit risky and big up front. Aguero being fitted in focuses the mind on things like splashing 5m on a West Ham defender, to rotate with a defender from a newly promoted team with an attacking manager. I'm also willing to risk Hennessy/MCarthy for a few weeks at least. When its clear which of them is first choice I can upgrade the other and have a playing 4m backup and some price rises hopefully. Holding firm for one premium defence. But now going to a slightly less sexy Leicester/Sunderland rotation (LEI,NOR,SWA,bou,AVL,bou) to join my Norwich Liverpool (CPL,BOU,STO,WHU,BOU,NOR). In midfield I'm toying with going back to Rambo for now instead of Walcott. Fab stays. Payet and Mahrez seem good use of the budget I have left. And those forwards, well, they should do. Benteke/Kane a close call. Going Benteke could let me get Chadli instead of Mahrez. I still have my traditional 0.5 in the bank which could take Ramsey to Walcott, or a decent second GK if the notion strikes. I'm ready to downgrade that front line when the opportunity arises and upgrade midfield or defs/gk. Risky. Too risky?
