Has Luciano Vietto (Fulham from Atletico loan today - an intruiging loan) had any type of pre-season? Too soon for him as a bargain selection up front for £5.5m I guess.

Was disappointing to see Maitland Niles in midfield. Thought he was excellent v Salah at left back. Hoped he'd be a cheap defender. Got no Arsenal players in mine as yet. Iwobi maybe? Don't have a clue where they're at tho.

Wanted to get the odd cheaper player in from Fulham or Wolves but they’ve bought so many players it’s hard to know who will start for them.

OK, I'll make Kane VC. I usually don't pay much attention to C/VC, which is probably one of the many reasons why I'm shit at this fantasy stuff. ;D

Thinking of leaving Mo out. Is that insanity?

He is so expensive but if he has a repeat of last season he will be a must pick.

Think the odd Chelsea player has got in there in the past, but never United or Everton (to be honest it's pretty easy not to select an Everton player).

I've been round in circles so many times on this.  He's nailed on to be a high scorer again this season, but at 54%(!) ownership it's likely his price will dip as soon as he has one or two merely average games.

It's ok though, I'll only change my mind on this eight or nine more times before the deadline.

My current team is:

Fabianski - Speroni

Lascelles - Trent - Daniels - Cedric - Kelly

Salah - De Bruyne - Richarlison - Mkhitaryan - Fonte

Aubameyang - Firmino - Zaha

I did have Sessegnon instead of Richarlison but the fear of him ending up at left back forced me into a change. I'll be making a couple of changes before the deadline.
