Lukaku is probably worth looking at for the next 2 months. Stoke (H), Sunderland (A), Middlesbrough (H), Bournemouth (A), Crystal Palace (H), Man City (A), Burnley (A) and West Ham (H) is an amazing run of fixtures. I could envisage him racking up double figures in that run of games. He was introduced early last weekend because they looked shit in attack without him and I'd say he's almost a nailed on starter now Chelsea have dropped their interest in him.

[Stand Free]

Pretty poor start by me. Just brought in Benteke, at 7.4 seems a bargain due to how good he was at Villa, hopefully he can replicate that with Palace.

[Crosby Nick]

Some things never change,  I am still shiiiiiite at this.

Same! Never picking a Manc probably hurts me but would rather have morals and mid table mediocrity.

Also beginning to think buying Origi was an error. Will give it another week. Was also hurt last week by both Mane and Ozil not playing (think Ozil may have come on as a sub) so hoping to pick up soon.

Thinking of doing the same, might be because it's 4 am but i'm about to use my wildcard!

[Bobinhood]

Hey, im losing money because Andy Carolls hurt and Moreno's being shit at defense at the same time.

Nobody in the world could have seen that coming 

[JLStretton]

think ill leave changing till later in the week now, basically i want sergio in but ill have to change about half the team

[paulrazor]

Feghouli is out til sept and hasnt played yet

dropped .1

brought in Fer for 300k less

ive sigurdson eriksen lallana fer and king in midfield

lallana came in for ayew after week 1

none of them in my team have done a thing (lallana wasnt in my team for arsenal)

course as soon as id take eriksen and sigurdson out they would probably score every game

[XabiArt]

Can't decide whether to get Lukaku or Benteke

[paulrazor]

im sticking with kane aguero and gray for now

especially as kane is against us the weekend

Gray i see was charged with misconduct for a 4 year old tweet!

possible ban

[F412OUK]

Getting rid of Origi, I have £7.8m to get a replacment, don't know who to get? already have Negredo and Aguero.
would like Lukaku but cant afford him:
Gray (will he get suspended?)
Defoe?
Benteke?

i know it's WBA, but Rondon has some really nice fixtures

[Gerry Attrick]

Has to Benteke or Rondon in that price range really, for the next month or so at least.

[grk_adonis90]

Any chance of Holgate retaining his place when Coleman returns?

[Number 7]

Lukaku

[The G in Gerrard]

Who to have as captain this week hazard or costa...?

Who to have as captain this week hazard or costa...?

Captained Costa last weekend and only got 10 from it despite him scoring. Picked up 2 yellows in his first 2 games.

[SMACLFC]

The big question, Countinho or Mane for this weekend?

[Red Viper]

Managed to wrangle getting Aguero, Ibra and Batshuayi in my team this week.

Midfield is weak as piss like but there you go.

[Gerry Attrick]

I think if you're not already on the Ibrahimovic train it's too late, his price is too prohibitive now. 4 of his next 7 games are against Man City, Leicester, Liverpool and Chelsea. They're not the kind of games I could see any United forward scoring well in because Mourinho will park the bus in at least 3 of them. Best to look at the players who've dropped in price and have easy games coming up. Benteke, Lukaku and Rondon being a few. Bony could be worth a look too if he moves to West Ham.

Cheers. As per gerrys remarks above last week of zlatan for me.

dont know how he wasnt sent off in the first game either

i found with costa a few years ago he tended to score 1 a week but not really scoring in 2s or 3s

ill stick with aguero. gonna put a few players on that watch list

not a bad thing to use sometimes

[LiamG]

how do you change the captain?

[Kenny's Jacket]

how do you change the captain?

Right click on your would be captains shirt and you get a drop down. Your current then defaults to vice captain, but you can change that the same way.

[amirani]

Long and Tadic letting me down big time.. Thinking of taking both out.

He was lucky not to be red carded last week too, absolutely shocking dive when already on a yellow.

Got them both too which is looking poor. I was right in thinking Long would now he first choice,  just thought he would score now and again!

Usually how it works with me as that as soon as I take them out they start scoring.

he has got away with some serious amount of red cards

[SenorGarcia]

Need more goals in the team. Currently got Aguero up front with Gray and Long. £1.4 million in the bank, so if I sold Long would free up £8 million. Suggestions?

Also got Coutinho in (worth £8.1 million) who I could sacrifice if necessary.

[Gerry Attrick]

Yep, I've had him in my team for the first 2 games but I've binned him for Lukaku. He's too risky, never know what he's going to do.

Benteke has to be the best option in that price range. Rondon at West Brom is decent as well.

[SenorGarcia]

Cheers mate. Gone for Big Ben 

It's annoying because having Ibra in my team is basically the difference between me leading my league and finishing fifth.  Hopefully he comes unstuck soon.

he tends to get away with it but then could get a ban retrospectively. his hamstrings cause him bother sometimes but he will score goals

as for part 2 negredo

Plus he's a c*nt. Have to factor that in when making these decisions too 

Negredo has started well but I'm not convinced Middlesbrough will keep it up. Things get tricky for them soon.

definitely. you look up that word in the dictionary and its a picture of him

Negredo is a decent price, whether he can keep it up too. first half of the 2013/4 season he was brilliant, second half, non existant

[amirani]

Well, Southampton play Sunderland tomorrow. If these 2 together don't earn me 15 points minimum, then im definitely transferring them out.

Persisted for that reason. Swapped big Div for Negredo.

[JLStretton]

Mahrez or Martial hmmm

[amirani]

Mahrez or Martial hmmm

Mahrez.. only because he takes free kicks and chips in with more assists.

yeah plus pens i think, it's who i have in also just looking if to make laod of changes just to get Sergio in upfront or just keep Lukaku as Everton got on paper at least look good for him scoring in coming weeks

[Gerry Attrick]

Just read that Pardew isn't likely to start Benteke today. Fuck off Pardew
