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.

      Shaw may not start the season unfortunately due to fitness, especially with Youngs form as well. Rest looks good.

        I'm a United fan and have been watching the pre-season games. I agree about Young's form, he's been a revelation, but I think that he'll start on the right.

        Shaw looked great against Liverpool and certainly demonstrated that fitness is no longer a problem. I think Van Gaal used it as a way of keeping him grounded after a big move.

    Would appreciate comments on the below:

    Krul, Elliot

    Evans, Simpson (Yoshida) Baird (N Taylor)

    Hazard, Ramsey, Mata, Eriksen (Siggy)

    Rooney, Costa, Bojan

    Reasons:

    GK: Cheap pair, I need the cash. Would prefer a rotating pair or playing 4.0 GK are there any?

    DEF: Evans - great fixtures. Simpson - attacking defender who rotates with Yoshida to give 8 home games to start. Baird - a risk I know but played most pre-season and was good at Fulham, rotates well with N Taylor.

    MID: Hazard as Fab is playing too deep. Ramsey I could lose due to tough fixtures but he was great last year so no reason he won't do it again. Mata great fixtures. Eriksen I think will be great value. Siggy is again great value but am tempted to lose him for Albrighton.

    FWD: Costa first two fixtures scream goals. Bojan is a risk but am rotating with Siggy. Am tempted to try and get in Dzeko but his fixtures are poor.

    Thanks for any advice.

    So after major surgery I think I've ended up with what I guess is a very template team, not sure how I feel about that:

    DDG | Gilks
    Luis | BDavies | Caulker | Ward | Duff
    Ramsey | Sterling | Eriksen | Sigurdsson

    Have 0.5m in the bank which I may use to upgrade Luis to Azpilicueta.

    First ever RMT after following FFS for a couple of seasons:

    Evans/Cahill/Davies /Moore/Hutton
    Fab/Ramsey/Sterling/Siggy /Albrighton

    a) upgrade sterling to mata (+ 1m in bank)
    b) sterling->mata AND Fab to Hazard (0.5 in bank)
    c) upgrading albrighton to a 6.5 midfielder (e.g. Sondgrass)

        What's wrong with three Chelsea attackers? They have good fixtures to start. Fabregas in the no 10 position, Hazard is penalty taker, and Diego Costa up top. I'm hedging my choices.

    OK, cheers for the tips from earlier this morning guys and gals. I've taken your advice on board and come up with this sad bunch....

    Dea Gea / Myhill

    Cameron / Terry / Wisdom / Vertonghen / Ward

    Albrighton / Toure / Gerrard / Ramsey / Sigurdsson

    Rooney / Lukaku / Bojan

    Am thinking I'm probably not going to tinker with it too much at this stage unless there's something glaringly obvious that I'm overlooking? I know Lukaku has a fitness issue but I think I'll hold on to him anyway even if he's not good to go for GW1. As always, any and all feedback gratefully received.

        Moore is benched and Chambers will certainly be sold after his first gw (or not if something good for him happens)

          He was brilliant in the last 10 games of the season and starts every week with no injuries. Worth the £8.5m. I can afford Silva and prefer him as a player but he let me down too many times last season being subbed off for poor fitness etc

      Too back heavy. I saw a stat on here last week about how the percentage of clean sheets over the last 5 seasons was at it lowest in the first 3 months of the season. That's a good enough sample for me.

      I've got £5.5 £5.0 £5.0 in my first XI at the back and a better forward line, I feel that's the way to go. Your team ain't bad by any stretch though.

        I seewhat you're saying. But of his eight goals scored in the Premier League, five have come after the 50-minute mark. And I want to take that risk against Burnley and Leicester. Either he starts or he comes off the bench - and I feel everytime he comes off the bench he creates something. If he doesn't by the first or second game - I'll sub him to e.g Tadic if he does well. I'll risk it.

      Heard rumours on here that Ward may not be nailed on. I'm not part of the group that think a Chelski defender is essential although Cahill is the best shout. (I've gone rouge with Verthongen)
      I had PVH but just swapped him for Chambers.

      Think Fab will play a little far back so may not be the best Chelski option. I'm not on board with Costa, but that'll probably hurt me more than you. I'd downgrade him to Dzeko to free up cash to swap Fab for Hazard.

      Like the Bojan punt, but that's what it is a bit of a punt. But good options in that price bracket. Nugent, Long, Austin etc.

      Good luck. I've only made 7 transfers this morning! I'm getting better!
