The Sun Dream Team – Scout League Launched with £1000 Prize

I'm gonna love it when Bony rips ManU open...and people will transfer out Lukaku before he has even played yet

I'm planning on that he won't score, most of the 36.7% teams will jump to whoever scored for City and buy him for around 13.2 gw4 : )

Yup, could easily happen. Of course if he blanks the first couple of games whilst one or two other strikers start well people with him in their teams are going to get a little twitchy 😉

It's the risk you take.

Haha you keep telling yourself that

No penos or stupid offiside goals with Moyes. Will fail big time against Swansea..

the entire key to not having RVP is not caring if he scores a brace and backing the players you have. People who don't have him have to be prepared for him to score a lot of goals.

I'm expecting a score that is neither good nor bad, just to confuse everyone further. Maybe 1 assist and yellow.

Swansea away.......I am expecting him to score 6-9 points........but then I am expecting my chosen captain to score exactly the same if not more.........and my captain will cost around 5 million less!!!!!!!

I would get in at least 1 more Chelsea player for the DGW as there will be plenty of points up for grabs albeit it being a minefield

I'd upgrade Koren or Thomas? The rest looks fine to me.

Arsenal have good fixtures, only team in the top 4 that has the same manager so I beleive they can do well. 3 Chelsea will hurt you gw3, Pool doesn't have that good fixtures in my opinion, avl MUN swa week 2-4 won't be easy.

They're both very happy at their respective clubs. Thank you!

Suarez anywhere.

Rooney not at Man Utd.

I am an Arsenal supporter so obviously I would want Suarez at Arsenal

Rooney anywhere but MU, so Hernandez could actually play.

rooney in an england shirt and suarez in a dustbin

Rooney at Arsenal would be my favourite transfer.
I'd love to see them do well again, despite supporting Spurs

Two teams with completely different players

My key to being a champion

I don't play any other game, but I would imagine team selection would be based on the individual point scoring system for each respective game.

Wide receivers & running backs tend not to do well in FPL.

So I'm very much in the mix it up camp.

😉

Death threat.... !?! He does know they'll be getting 100m+ for one player right?

I'd be giving out death threats if he decides to stay and risk losing the cash!

Sadly, this would probably have come from a fan. One who might be getting a visit from the rozzers

Liverpool will sign another CB

Skyrtel/Carra out, not = Toure in.

Aye that was my thinking, i put in Szczesny in place of migs and Toure in my defence

All the cool kids have both

Benteke > Soldado GW2 is a terrible move, he ripped Liverpool apart last season and Soldado is completely unproven. I'd only do that if Soldado scored week one and Benteke got sent off. Basically I'd just avoid planning ahead altogether.

Also, don't bench Anelka. It's asking for trouble. I like it in general but I'd downgrade one of your front eight to bench fodder and upgrade O'Shea and Reither.

Not a good idea to have transfers planned, a lot of things can happen that'll need transfers to fix, what if O'shea won't play, he wasn't on the best terms with Di Canio last season if I remember correctly, what if Coleman won't be oop, what if Hazard really gets rotated much as Mourinho said, what's Anelka will play as he did in China last season etc etc...

Collins

Collins, imo.

Collins/Clyne/Shaw?

Isn't Turner injured? Most people have Garrido I think.

lol, same here

Nope. 4.5 Boruc is the best you can do.

4.5 for guaranteed starters I'm afraid

ok thanks

Useless. Deleted right after installing.

Can't get it to work for some reason. It won't let me log in 🙁 It says I have to register the team or whatever

Friendswood Public Library? Its incredible.

There's no official app for 13/14 yet so if you're trying to log in to last season's it won't work. There's various unofficial attempts out there of middling quality.

Thanks folks.

If kim for bench, A.
If not, neither.

I should point out, these leagues do not take up any space in your FPL leagues, so you happily join any other leagues you want without a worry 😀

4.0 is pointless for me.
Casuals will realise they dont play and sell them.
Thus reducing team value.

Because Migs is gonna get rotated with Jones?

Oh how I remember the discussions on this last year. I said all along that the DDG+4.0 keeper option would fail and was very happy with the Jaask+Bego (4.5+4.5) combo that I ended up going with. Unfortunately the 4.5 combo's aren't rotating so well this time round 🙁

Yes and yes

Yes if he isn't injured.

don't like you strikers. you a relying on rvp.

You must be new to FPL?

3-5-2 suggests your 3rd striker is poo and will be on the bench every week. It stops people replying saying your 3rd striker is poo when you already know he's poo.

Forwards and midfielders tend to score more than defenders. But regardless I usually field the people with the best fixtures for the given week, regardless of the formation.

Sissoko could be playing further forward, is cheaper, more explosive - he's the one who could shoot up in price early on, Cabaye is more of a long term option, not too exciting, not the sort to be starting with.

With Newcastle investing heavily in forwards, with Remy already secured and them sniffing around Gomis and Bent, I think Sissoko has lost his attraction. I think he'll play wide, not in the hole as he prefers. Cabaye could be a good pick - but I would prefer Snoddy at the same price. What in particular puts you off Snoddy? I think Norwich, with their forward investment, will be more prolific this season which should yield more assists for him.

Wanyama - I'm a saints fan and I can see him staying fairly shackled to holding midfield. He was by no means a regular scorer for Celtic in a less challenging league. Can't see that changing.

GB, have you registered for FFS UEFA season 3 yet?

+1

I like the cut of your jib Dipesh.

i always feel anger at a price shows fpl has done a good job

I think they are all a bit too expensive and yet find myself drawn to Soldado. At least he's nailed on...

It's mean is what it is.

well dzeko is 7.5 & arguably as talented as the other city strikers valued at 9-9.5 yet all are in a similar position in terms of rotation so yeah, they probably should be less... the only one i'd agree with is soldado as he'll likely play more

I would've hoped that their price tags were a tad more lenient as they haven't proved themselves in EPL yet. like a 8.0/8.5

I've already got him pencilled into my draft next to Fabregas.

Cue every wc in FPL being activated 😆

Ronaldo recently signed a new contract with Madrid, so you'll be waiting a few years for that deadline day move

One of the better RVP teams I've seen, but yea, I'd change Ramires at some point

Midfield is to light which means you have too much invested in defence for an RVP team. It is just too risky going without all of Walcott, Hazard, Coutinho and Silva. Downgrade Vidic and upgrade Ramires or Carrick to one of those. You can then transfer Ivan to Vidic after the DGW. I would even downgrade Benteke as well (maybe to Dzeko) and upgrade another mid.

Zabaleta

Sturridge & Bony

GJ
Luk and Ben for GW1
Prolly Studge and Ben overall (Dont know Bony - Must be a Scot)

please don't double up on Arsenal defence. Their fixtures aren't that good.

That said, I can't see your GK combo keeping 4 cleanies between them so you're going for save points?

As you're a fan of doubling up I'd do Lamps Lukaku to Dzeko Nasri (obviously dependent on how many minutes they get in the opening two games) as Liverpool have a tough fixture GW3 which Coutinho may struggle in

With Dagenham and Redbridge imo

Barring coming 6th or lower I think he will. Not sacking managers is their 'thing'

Dawson to start with if you must go with one

Dawson as he is Captain and I dont know if Kaboul is fit

They're the 3 I currently have. I think Lamps will start the first game for sure. Probably play some part in the second too.
