[Number 7]

Not much faith in Costa?

Batshuayi might start ahead of him.

[Damo58]

Thoughts on Mkhitaryan? I've got him in midfield with Hazard, Firmino and Tadic but is he worth the gamble or should I replace him with someone else priced at 9.5?

[amirani]

Went for:

Karius

Morgan
Alderweireld
Stones

Eriksen
Mahrez
Mane
Firmino
Kante

Ighalo
Kane

Subs: Hennessey, Hernandez, Reid, Smith

Karius is out for 2 months...

[The G in Gerrard]

Batshuayi might start ahead of him.

It'll be two up front no?

I had him for a while too, but I decided to trade him out as I am unsure how he will settle and I have not been watching United's preseason.

[Upinsmoke]

Karius is out for 2 months...

I know, Hennessey there...

[my name canged back to tucker?]

butland, jakupovic

morgan, stones, evans, fernandez, paredes

barkley, hazard, firmino, ramsey, rodwell

[Sarge]

This is my Squad.

My Squad:

Keepers:  Hennessey   Boruc 

Defenders:  Stones    Pieters    Morgan   B Smith    Collins

Midfielders:  Tadic    Fischer    De Bruyne    Fabregas    Firmino

Forwards:  Kane   Ibra   S Long

Thoughts?

[phil_1010]

Willian looks good value at 7.5m but is he a guaranteed starter this season?

[Damo58]

Thoughts? Any changes anyone would make?

[F412OUK]

Your front line looks good if all pans out, but aguero is injury prone, will Origi play enough? And what if Benteke stays haha

But it could work out great too

Yes forgot to mention Benteke is only in there in the hope he moves to Palace or West Brom infact if its not done till Friday then he will be replaced before the season starts, thinking of the following strikers could take his place:
Austin
Long
Gray
Wilson
Musa
Ighalo
Carroll
Defoe
not sure which one of these to go for?

Also what are peoples opinions on Delle Alli, big fan of his but not a lot of teams have got him this year is it because he's been outpriced or think he'll struggle this year?

and David Silva well priced, is he first choice under Pep and what position we'll he take? haven't seen their pre season

[outlaw_nas]

How do people use the wildcards?

[Sarge]

Starts when Season starts.

[KERRYKOP]

Thanks lads. I've made a bastard lovechild of a team.

Courtois

Stones
Pieters
Terry

Hazard
Lamela
Ayew
Tadic
Chamberlain

Kane
Agüero!!!

[Sarge]

Mines better

[outlaw_nas]

Starts when Season starts.

What is it? And how do your take advantage of it?

[Filler.]

You use it usually from about 3-4 weeks in when you realise your whole team is shite or not getting games. You can use it once, and you can sub out and sub in as many players as you like without any points reduction. Basically, it allows you to start again.

It's really tough to say because it's his first season in the PL, and United have undergone quite a lot of changes in that team. No doubt he's a good player, but honestly I would use the 9.5 on Mahrez. He's tried and tested in this league and I don't see him falling off a cliff like some people do.

Yep this

Chamberlain

Kane
Agüero!!!

thats a great looking team, who's the subs though?

[S.Red please]

De Gea

Walker
Stones
Terry

Tadic
Cabaye
Dier
Mane

Ibrahimovic
Aguero
Gray

Got Feghouli and Van Aarnholt on the bench too.

Thinking about swapping Dier out but no idea who would be any good instead for £6.5 mil, any suggestions?

[Sarge]

Mine is better.

Townsend

[KERRYKOP]

Ha. If you saw them you'd know why I left them out! Basically the three cheapest players so I could squeeze all the rest in. Looking at the side again I'll swap Courtois for De Gea, might give me better spread of clean sheets.

Terry will probably start at the weekend with Zouma out won't he?

[Filler.]

I have Stones in my team still, but I can see the camera pointing to him on the bench this weekend. Got Aguero too now, who's messed things up quite frankly. I can see Guardiola using Fernandino at CB, and if it works, continuing for a bit. Can also see him plunged in quick too. Tricky one. Now starting to give serious thoughts to dumping Aguero. I like a good strong midfield, and I like some spare cash to play with at the start. Aguero blows a hole. May have to toss a coin on it.

[F412OUK]

changed my team again, got rid of de gea and gone for shaw at LB, Valdes comes in to rotate with Foster. Negredo replaced Benteke for now, thoughts?

[thisyearisouryear]

Ok, finally settled on this:

GK - Hart
Defense - Van Djik, Dann, Rose
Midfield - Shaqiri, Hazard, Tadic, Mane
Forward - Origi, Vardy, Kane

Still thinking about Origi though, not sure if he will start.

[thisyearisouryear]

De Gea

Walker
Stones
Terry

Tadic
Cabaye
Dier
Mane

Ibrahimovic
Aguero
Gray

Shaqiri ?

Not sure about Fabregas and Fischer as I believe there are many mids for same or less price who had better preseason than these players.

Fabregas normally starts the season well to be fair but then fades after Christmas.

[mc_red22]

Says on the fantasy site 75% chance of playing, if he's ruled out i'll switch him before it starts

Whatever you do, don't rely on the fantasy site for injury news. They're useless.

[paulrazor]

Costa's first season he was doubtful every week which put me off and then he never missed a game

[Rosario]

GK- De Gea
DEF- Stones Shaw Moreno
MID- Eriksen Mane Tadic Cabaye
FWD- Ibra Aguero Negredo

Bench- Pickford(GK) Hojbjerg Francis Paredes

With City and Utd easy starts I think you have to get Aguero and Ibra in and if one of them flops after 3 rounds can still trade down and get any forward of your choice and upgrade the Midfield probably Cabaye for me the others are proven point scorers.

[The G in Gerrard]

Is a midfield that has Mane, Firmino & Coutinho over reliant on our results?

[Rosario]

Is a midfield that has Mane, Firmino & Coutinho over reliant on our results?

Yeah if we don't score or only score one you get minimum points. If they were on different teams could easily justify it.

[Caston]

Is a midfield that has Mane, Firmino & Coutinho over reliant on our results?

Yes of course. I'd just take 1 of them.

[Elmo!]

[The G in Gerrard]

Changed team:

Hart

Stones
Barragan
Fuchs

Mane
Ibe
Hojberg
Hazard

Zlatan
Aguero
Costa

[outlaw_nas]

Nice team
