Right going for wild card to sort my team out

Previous

Marshall (Kevin Davis)
Ivanovic , Dawson, Luna ( Chester, Fonte)
Michu, Bellamy, Navas, Barkley, Walcott
VP Lambert Dzeko

Propesed change

Boruc, ( Daniels)
Ivanovic , Dawson, Luna ( Chester, Fonte)
Michu, Whittingham, Ozil, Barkley , Walcott
VP , Lambert and Aspas

0.1 INB. Cannot make my mind up on Aspas / Aghbonlahor or another cheap striker

All Opinions welcome
