[Crosby Nick]

Do we think Martial or Micky Ryan will get more play time under Jose?

Both are 9.5 and could be decent return for the money.

If you had a working moral compass you wouldn't be asking that question.

[Bobinhood]

So what's the league code? 36558-10814 doesn't work

edit: actually as I've been running the league for the past 2 years I just renewed it so it's filled already.

Ha ha  welcome to the party. Reminds me of me looking for my last beer in the fridge  "Where the Hell is my oh yeah i drank that already shit...."

 Sir P, commit this to memory or something and we'll pm the hell out of RivaGe next year.

Still Smith + 14, things are really taking shape now..... 

[Crimson_Tank]

If you had a working moral compass you wouldn't be asking that question.

The last three seasons I avoided using players from the mancs and bitters, it cost me points.

My working brain says there are points to be had in their side since they have a different manager than Moyes and Louis Van Gaul.

After my disaster of last Season i will unashamedly take any fucking player and will brag if i do well too. So to anyone who judges me.

[Crimson_Tank]

Amen Sarge. Amen.

[The G in Gerrard]

Is Barragan likely to start for the Boro?

[Barneylfc∗]

My latest squad is

De Gea
Boruc

Clyne
Alderweireld
Shaw
Bailly
Azpilicueta

Mane
Firmino
Alli
Sane
Ibe

Musa
Austin
Wilson

Will be tempted to get Benteke in if he goes to Palace

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

That is a damn expensive defence

Edit: You've got Alderweireld, who you have to play given his price, and Azpi at 6 should start for that price as well. So is there  any point in tripling up on Utd's defence if you're going to bench them a lot? The alternative is having one of Alderweireld and Azpi on the bench which is insane for their prices

[UntouchableLuis]

Which player is most likely to start: Fabregas, Willian or Pedro?

I assume definite starters for Chelsea: Kante, Matic, Hazard, Costa

So 2 of the 3 from what I mentioned plus Oscar in the mix.

[KERRYKOP]

My team. All players set to implode sometime after 11:30am Saturday morning.

Jakupovic

Rojo
Cahill
Fuchs

Nolito
Alli
Ayew
Martial

Vardy
Kane
Wilson

[The G in Gerrard]

My latest squad is

That's most expensive defence I've seen

[Terry_Tibbs]

I think I've finally settled on:

de Gea

Bellerin
Stones
Clyne

Sanchez
Pogba
Mane
Dier

[The G in Gerrard]

Thoughts on :

De Gea

Stones
Barragan
Fuchs

Mane
Firmino
Coutinho
Hojberg
Hazard

Aguero
Vardy

Your goalies, defenders and strikers are shit. You've somehow wasted £100m or did the Transfer Committee select them for you?

But what ya think?

[KERRYKOP]

But what ya think?

They might be the worst value strikers you could have picked, or you got bonked on the head and missed the entire of last season.

[Sarge]

No chance Rooney and Ibra, Benteke at Palace and Negredo on the bench, midfield is awsome!!

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

Benteke at Palace I'll give you, but much better 6.5 strikers than Negredo and well, you've got Rooney ... Nuff said

Lukaku is the same price as Rooney, Costa 0.5 more, I'd be on them rather than Rooney.

[amirani]

Current team (might change) playing a 3-4-3 formation. 2mn left in the bank.

Courtois

Azpi
Valencia
Walker

Eriksen
Tadic
Firmino
Sigurdsson

Origi
Long
Kane

Subs
Hennesey
Pieters
Cathcart
Feghouli

Thoughts?

[Number 7]

If anyone is looking for a cheaper under the radar defender to round out their squad:

George Friend - Middlesbrough had a lot of clean sheets last season and he was a major part of that. 39 starts, 1 G and 2 A.
Michael Keane - Burnley defender with 44 starts last season. 5 G and 1 A.

They probably won't get picked by the majority of people but are different options to have.

[Number 7]

Here is mine at the moment. Any thoughts

Hennessey

Fuchs
Bailly
Valencia

Firmino
Iwobi
Martial
Sánchez

Wilson
Gray
Agüero

Oviedo
Robertson

Not sure about Bailly to be honest. Looks a bit hit and miss to me. Wilson's a good pick. Once you have Aguero in your team it's really tough to be happy with the rest of the players because he takes up so much of the budget.

If there are points deducted for yellow cards then Bailly definitely is a no no.. that guy is a foul machine

[outlaw_nas]

Which defender would u go for?moureen teams are clean sheets written all over them.
I've chosen Bailey and smalling and de gea for that reason

[amirani]

Wouldn't you wanna go for the full backs that play for teams with good defense? they earn the points for clean sheets plus better chances of assists or goals. For that reason I have gone with Valencia.

[Barneylfc∗]

That's my reasoning too. Plus Shaw might get the odd assist

[Number 7]

Shaw.

Good theory. Which other full backs are there

[outlaw_nas]

Shaw.

Shaw injury records is like sturridges?no?

[Filler.]

Too early for Stones to start at 5.0? Think that's my only question in defence (I think).

Got 50% of my midfield 'nailed'. Doubt I'll budge on two of them, one other is Townsend, who's 50/50. The problem I've got now is do I go for Aguero, as that means two biggies in midfield may need to be culled. Have to have at least 5m in the pot to play with to help patch things up. Will Benteke start for Palace? Or will it be a bench introduction? If he starts, he scores 2 right?

Round and round we go.

What's Aguero's minutes been in pre-season etc? Do I wait on him? He plays Sunderland. Questions questions.



Quite like the FDR column... the Fixture Difficulty Rating, 1-5. Arsenal's FDR for the opener v Liverpool is a 3. Our FDR for them is a 4. We'll see about that.

[F412OUK]

Gone for this for now:

De Gea
Foster

Chambers
Terry
Stones
Baines
Pieters

Hazard
Ayew
Mane
Redmond
Leko

Aguero
Origi
Benteke

Thoughts?

[Bobinhood]

My squad so far:

? ?

Brad smith ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ?
? ? ?



Did quite a bit of work on that today but i still may make some changes very late on friday night from an uber somewhere.

[outlaw_nas]

a lot of people have gone for terry and Aguero.

will terry play majority of games with his age now and aguero injury record is getting worse isnt it?

With no European football I think Terry will handle playing 1 game a week.
