Good luck everyone.

Foster
Baines - Bertrand - Tomkins
Sanchez - Di Maria - Mane - Downing
Aguero - Pelle - Valencia

Value - 83.5 exactly

Foster has a good home game and should at least get some save points.

The defenders all have good fixtures and a strong attacking threat.

Sanchez and Di Maria pick themselves. Mane should start and has a great fixture to finally deliver on his threat. Downing has the perfect combination of form and fixture.

Aguero and Pelle are obvious picks this week and Valencia has the form and fixture to run riot on Saturday.

If Sakho is proven fit then I'd probably swap Mane and Valencia to Tadic and Sakho.

Forster (LEI)
Trippier (HUL) - Cresswell (AVL) - Baines (sun)
Di Maria (CRY) - Sanchez (swa) - Mane (LEI) - Chadli (STK)
Aguero (qpr) - Pelle (LEI) - Sakho (AVL)

All pretty self-explanatory picks who have good form and fixtures. Exactly 83.5m.

Here is my teams nomination, will not give an explanation of why I picked them...If you like it then vote: Thanks!

-----------------------Forster-------------------------
---------Coleman---Dier---Chambers----------
Ben Arfa -- Oscar -- Downing -- Sanchez
-----------Aguero -- Pelle -- Rooney-----------

Lloris
Baines, Bertrand, Tomkins
Sanchez, Di Maria, Tadic, Downing
Aguero, Pelle, Kane

Have had a go for 3 weeks but get outvoted by long post with fairly similar team or anti-vote. would be nice if i finally get a chance 🙂

basically just gone for a simple team with a mixture of form + fixtures

Foster

bertrand Baines McNair*

Tadic Sanchez DI maria Chadli

Sakho* Pelle Aguero

*Sakho and McNair become Collins and Berhino if ruled out/other defenders return. downing also makes way for chadli if skaho is out

Adrian 5 (AVL)
Baines 7.2 (sun) Bertrand 5.5 (LEI) Azpilicueta 6 (liv)
Di Maria 10.1 (CPL) Sanchez 10.5 (swa) Downing 5.8 (AVL) Chadli 6.5 (STO)
Aguero 12.6 (qpr) Sakho 5.8 (AVL) Pelle 8.4 (LEI)

83.5

Adrian: Villa have scored 1 goal in their last 6 games and Benteke is suspended.

Baines: Attacking returns and/or clean sheet in 7 of his last 8 games.

Bertrand: Best defense in the league as well as decent attacking threat.

Azpilicueta: Liverpool can't score at the moment and being an away game Jose will setup his team for a clean sheet.

Di Maria: Juicy home fixture, on set pieces and most of United's attack goes through him.

Sanchez: Irresistible form and central to everything Arsenal do.

Downing: On form and playing in the number 10 role behind two very clinical strikers.

Chadli: Spurs top goal scorer hosting a Stoke side that can't seem to keep a clean sheet.

Aguero: Best striker in the league playing the worst defense in the league.

Sakho: Should shake off the injury and continue his recent run of goals.

Pelle: An absolute beast with quality midfielders giving him great service. At home to an out of sorts Leicester.

Thanks for your time, send a vote my way if you like what you see! Cheers.

Kun(qpr), Pelle(LEI), Beharino(NEW)

Cheers fellas.

Now up to 9th overall and top of members league (teamname Come On Huey)...didn't help me with this last week but thought I'd have another crack! 83.2m total.

Foster (4.5)

Jenkinson (5), Coleman (6.9), Bertrand (5.5)

Downing (5.8), Tadic (7.8), Di Maria (10.1), Sanchez (10.6)

Berahino (6), Pelle (8.4), Aguero (12.6)

Fancied giving this a bash this week, see if we can’t redress some that huge deficit! I think many have tried too hard, so Ive attempted to keep it simple:

Forster
Baines Cresswell Clyne
Di Maria Sanchez Chadli Downing
Sakho Aguero Pelle

Forster – plum home fixture against Leicester for the stand out defence of the season so far

Baines – expect him to feature in most picks and game vs struggling Sunderland is a no-brainer.

Cresswell – home game for the Hammers against a Villa who dont look like scoring. Plus he carries a decent assist threat too!

Clyne – see Forster!

Di Maria – home to Palace and Di Maria has continued to get shots in on goal looks primed for a decent haul

Sanchez – again after back to back braces its hard to argue against him - so here he is!

Chadli – Spurs haven’t quite clicked yet, but that hasn’t stopped Nacer Chadli from racking up some decent returns for a mid priced at just 6.5m (in fact tied with Siggy and Downing on 54)

Downing – which brings me neatly to my final midfield pick, a resurgent Stuart Downing, currently pulling all the strings in a West Ham side with a nice home fixture

Aguero – another no brainer, far and away the leading forward pick for my money and an away game to QPR should bring rewards.

Pelle – Southamptons main goal threat at home to Leicester? Yes please!

Sakho – another from the rejuvenated West Ham side and a veritable bargain for 5.8m at home to a struggling Villa.

I think this little lot comes in at a rather attractive 83.2m . Thanks to anyone who deems my lot worthy of a vote 🙂

A. Sterling, Tadic > Sanchez, Downing -4
B. Sterling, Siggy > Sanchez, Boyd -4

A or B?

Jakupovic(4.0)
Clyne(5.6) Cresswell(5.4) Baines(7.2)
ADM(10.1) Sanchez(10.6) Tadic(7.8) Downing(5.8)
Berhaino(6.0) Pelle(8.4) Aguero(12.6)

Total - 83.5M Exact 😉

Hart
Bertrand - Collins - Chambers - Jagielka
Tadic - Fabregas - Sanchez - Di Maria
Berahino - Aguero

Wanted to mix mine up a bit, primarily bringing in a Man City defender but Joe Hart seems to be the only regular starter besides Kompany! The rest is all fairly bog standard. Kept in Fabregas because no Chelsea coverage just seems strange, no matter the opposition.

My previous scout picks are on 83 + Fraizer Campbell to go before todays MNF, thanks everyone who voted for me 😉

Adrián

Baines - Alderweireld - Rose

Sánchez - Ángel Di María - Mane - Chadli

Agüero - Pelle - Sakho

Team Value: £83.1m

Sakho can be changed to Berahino if he's out.

Nope, nothing exciting so far
Needs some Bemba

Give me just one chance, please. 🙂

Adrian
Clyne Ivanovic Baines
Tadic Di Maria Fabregas Moses Sissoko
Aguero Valencia

Ok first time trying this and even though I am really popular on here I want you to vote on merit not just cause I am mans best friend

Forster- double up on spton defence cause they are a bit good
Fonte- due a goal from set pieces
Cresswell- most attacking whu defender and opponents have no chance of scoring
Baines- well he is baines
Mane- ride that spton wave
Noble- due another few set piece points, and opponents have lost some height
Fabs- the man that always gives
Sanchez- you just got to have him
Aguero- will rip QPR apart
Pelle- remember the spton wave? Surfs up dude
Sahko- against terrible defence

And a little bit to spare
Here
Is
Some more
Lines
To
Make
It longer
And
Stand
Out 🙂

First of all: Sanchez will blank and Swansea will score. 🙂

Adrian (5.0)
Bertrand (5.5) - Baines (7.2) - S. Taylor (3.9)
ADM (10.1) - Tadic (7.8) - Chadli (6.5) - Downing (5.8)
Agüero (12.6) - Pelle (8.4) - Rooney (10.2)

83.0 m

Formation: 3-5-2
Jakupovic
Baines Coleman Bertrand
Sanchez Di Maria Downing Moses Mane
Aguero Pelle
Cost= £83m
🙂

A lot of them are very similar this week
Is this the result of failure of differential teams in past?

My team - formation 3-5-2
GK - Lloris
Defenders - Baines, Clyne, Jenkinson
Mid - Sanchez Alexis, Di Maria, Chadli, Diame (Hull)
Fw - Aguero, Enner Valencia, Pelle

Clyne, Lloris and Jenkinson are playing at home against teams which haven't scored that many goals this season, especially Villa, which have scored only 5 and Jenkinson and West Ham is due a clean sheet. Clyne is there just because Southampton is on a roll and I wouldn't be surprised to see clean sheet against Leicester.Baines is just Baines, he has assist potential and goals, not just clean sheet availability and Lloris plays against Stoke which should be an easy match.

Sanchez and Di Maria of course are in my opinion must haves, while Chadli is at home and seems to still be in form. Diame is maybe unexpected pick but he seems decent by his previous results and I think Hull City will try their best to win at Burnley.

Aguero is a must, especially against QPR which I don't rate that good defensively. Pelle is at home and as he hasn't scored in last 2, I think he will here, while Enner Valencia, while Sakho is gone, is main attacking threat for West Ham.

Only player I considered besides these was Rooney, but he was too expensive to make a balanced team.

Begovic (4.9 tot )
Duff (4.2 HUL) Shaw 5.8 (CPL) Cresswell (5.4 AVL)
Larson(5.4 EVE) (Tadic.7.8 LEI) Downing( 5.8 AVL) Hazard(10 liv)
Valencia ( 6.9 AVL) Costa ( 10.9 liv) Aguero ( 12.6 qpr)
_____________________________________________________________

Bego , Spurs not very good at home Bego is due a CS differential too
Duff - Burnley capable of being resolute need to shut these fixtures out if they want to stay up
Creswell / Shaw both bombardier full backs with tasty homes with good chancing of CS and assist as play in high scoring teams
Laarson is a hunch , a little free kick or lovely through ball or both to ignite the SoL
Tadic to steal the show v weak Leicster, due a pen too
Downing fast becoming ' thee ' cheap 4th mid , in a free scoring West Ham he will be involved in most
Hazard is finding form on Pens and Liverpool leaky
Valencia is 100 percent fir and raring to go and reminds of a young christiano

Schmeichel

Baines Clyne Duff

Sigurdsson Sánchez Fábregas Di María

Agüero Pellè Welbeck

Forster (5.2)
Bertrand (5.5) chester (4.5) baines (7.1)
Di Maria (11) Sanchez (10.6) downing (5.7) moses (5.5)
Pelle (8.4) aguero (12.5) sakho (5.8)

If my calculation is correct it comes down to 79.8

Reason for selections in comments

Here's the real deal. It's all about the points, note just the names 🙂

Jakupovic - Burnley are terrible and Hull can grab a cleanie
Coleman - cheaper than Baines but deadlier in front of goal and a bap magnet
Robertson - doubling up on Hull and ready for another haul
C. Dawson - WBA back line is solid and he's a threat on set pieces
Downing - a man in the form that made him an England regular!
Di Maria - Palace not defending set pieces well
Aguero, Hazard and Sànchez - picking themselves 🙂
Pellé - man with form and the C band for many next week
Berahino - form and fixtures make him a resounding 'yes'

noticed a slight flaw in the system last gw. the community team had mané in as those teams are picked at the start of the gameweek. of course by thursday friday we knew he was a big doubt to start. i understand it is easier to get the process open nice and early in the week but in terms of the competition slant on it the playing field isn't as even as it could be.
apologies if i've rumbled the house secret 😉
