J.S.Park, what a quality player. Very Underrated, have always said it but he has even improved even more the last few years.

Utd have serious options on the wing this season.

    Not too bad Sas, enjoying watching the football again, even if it is only pre-season, its good to have it back + the games have been very entertaining i thought so far, the Utd ones anyway. will be a few more goals in the 2nd half for sure!

      Good stuff!
      
      Team here is okay. Still have 5 or so places "up for grabs" as they say, depending on transfers, new manager preferences etc etc, but I'm fairly happy with the core 🙂

Ok, think I have my team as I want it so time to RMT if you would be so kind, after much deliberation have gone with Baines so that I have potentially high point scorers in every position, if Aguero comes in then might change RVP

Given (Ruddy)

Baines - Kompany - A Cole
Taraabt - Moses - Silva - VdV
Rodallega - RVP / Aguero - Zamora

Bench - Ruddy, Simpson, Orr, Ferguson

Week 2 have 1m left over to do Silva to Malouda, Moses to Sinclair or Zamora to Gyan

Any comments?

  Is he well worth it? Hes not a natural goal scorer/poacher type player like the Bents of this world. Unfortunately wonder goals give exactly the same amount of points as a tap in and Im not 100% he'll be grabbing that many tap ins this season.

Anderson is looking bright this preseason, bagged a nice goal and looks to be a regular fixture in the team unless Ferguson somehow finds "value" in the market. At Porto he played in a much more advanced role and if paired with Carrick as expected he should see greater freedom. Maybe one to watch this season.

    Well its a running joke at United but he did show signs at the end of the last season that he was finding his shooting boots. I just pray we bring in a central midfielder of quality this summer. Are you backing Tony V this season or has Young put the final nail in the rotation risk coffin for you?

      He did score a couple last season so perhaps your right, i have my doubts though, and i can still see rotation in the center too with Giggs so could be risky enough? He was actually one of the first names in my team, mainly due to price but i shipped him out, will be so much rotation on the wings it's not even right. Nani/Young/Valencia/Park.. why wouldn't you rotate.. i'm staying clear anyway.

  Welbeck looks like that loan spell has done him a world of good - the only issue is he returns to a team overloaded with strikers and wingers. A real talent though, unlike the sluggish Macheda.

  Defense is far too expensive. It hurts your midfield. Choose two of Kompany, Baines, Luiz and Samba, and get cheapies to fill the rest.

      3 top defenders is still too many imo. There are really only 2 good defense strategies and they are:
      
      Big, Rotate x4
      Big x2, Rotate x3
      
      Get 2 top defenders and rotate the rest.
      
      Too much in bench players will hurt you over the season as well. You don't want a lot of money sitting on the sidelines. Moses is a good shout if you still want potential points, or else, just go for a playing 4.5 mid.
