With so many of you seeking advice on their teams before August 16, we thought it would prudent to run a daily community article to provide a dedicated focus for “Rate My Team” (RMT) requests.

Each day ahead of the new season, we’ll select one of the Fantasy Football Scout team and post up their own RMT request to open up discussion and encourage others to post their own. We’ll turn the comments over to you to provide a useful place for those seeking advice and highlight some of the key decisions under deliberation.

Please nudge those posting RMTs in other articles to visit this daily RMT article. Also, when posting requests, please remember to be courteous to those who take the time to help out. Equally, if you’re an experienced Fantasy manager with some views on initial line-ups, take time out to dip in and contribute – the Fantasy Football Scout team will be doing their upmost to offer their feedback as the discussion develops throughout the day.

Next up is D1sable, the winner of the 2013/14 Fantasy Football Scout moderators and contributors league.

De Gea/Hamer
Filipe Luis, Chester, Moore, Cameron, Mariappa
Sterling, Ramsey, Albrighton, Sigurdsson, Mata
Rooney, Diego Costa, Dzeko

D1sable tells us he wants a Manchester United and a Chelsea defender but he is unsure about Luis Felipe’s game time and doesn’t trust Manchester United defenders to stay fit. Luke Shaw’s fitness is a particular concern.

He hasn’t gone for rotation at the back,  just selected defenders from defensive sides. While in midfield he really wants Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure but he has found he just decimates the team with his price. Toure could be brought in with a wildcard later.  He is also a reluctant owner of Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata, with Chelsea’s Cesc Fabregas waiting in the wings. Liverpool’s attack is another area he feels he is lacking and he is concerned that Diego Costa may not be the best route into Chelsea goals and assists.

Feel free to get stuck in with your feedback. We look forward to scanning your RMTs throughout the day on this article.

    begovic (Myhill)

    chambers // terry // jones // cameron (diakite)

    Hazard // Sterling // Mata (albrighton, Garcia)

    Giroud // Rooney // Costa

    Can this be improved? looks good to me for first 3 gameweeks.

      Very strong offence, pretty risky defence and strong mid. I'm pretty bearish on Begovic and Myhill will probably not get the nod, Foster is the nailed on keeper at West Brom.

      Chambers should start at GW1 but I don't see him getting too many minutes beyond that. I too had Cameron in almost all of my drafts so far but I hear that he is not nailed on.

      Lastly who's Garcia? You mean ManCity's Garcia? If yes, maybe consider upgrading him and downgrading on your offence?

      Hope this helps

        Thanks for taking the time to reply, people is I need either giroud or Sanchez , can't find a way to get one or the other in either way., and defense wise I was really thinking of getting a palace plater in instead of Cameron, think to my Pulis is gonna keep more clean sheets . Any thoughts on a change or two?
