    Sorted. Gone Costa and Sterling over Fab and Studge, too much concern that Fab will sit a bit too deep to score massive. Leaves me money left over to upgrade as necessary to avoid an early wildcard. And gone Luis, don't see Chelsea spending that much for him to sit on the bench.

      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.

      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?
