Coutinho or Eriksen? (and a reason for your choice)
I am struggling to choose - both decent fixtures and form. Eriksen on set pieces but Coutinho in a team who should score more...
Any help would be appreciated.

  If you want Liverpool would go sterling or Sturridge. Cheaper options consider Hendo but between those Eriksen.

    Cheers - can't afford Sterling or Sturridge though! I think I am being swayed by good reports about Coutinho from the last friendly, but not sure if he can be consistent and stay fit.

      Not much of an FPL pick despite perhaps getting applause for his work in games. Find the extra and get Sterling, trust me.

  Cout is at a slight rotation risk, and is pretty inconsistent but explosive, and will end up assister of the assister a lot. Erik is one set pieces and completely nailed on.

Fletcher gonna be a very important player this season.

Him playing well increases United's CS potential a lot.

  Mata to start with certainly, although both are good options.
  Probably Sterling but with Eriksen being 0.5 cheaper if you can spend that well maybe he is better?

  I think we're all giving Kelly too much credit both for his ability and his chances of not getting injured. Don't think he'll just walk into the team.

"Here is more on the news that Argentina left-back Marcos Rojo has handed in a transfer request to Sporting Lisbon and told the Portuguese club he wants to leave for Manchester United, according to Sky sources. Southampton were previously rumoured to be leading the Premier League chase for the 24-year-old before he was linked heavily to United over the weekend."

Is he any good though?
