Many ppl here getting hendo instead of Siggy?
Open Controls-
Yep. Will be my first transfer though bringing Siggy in for him.
Open Controls -
I don't like having to play Siggy against utd but don't want to have to waste that transfer..

Always preferred Fletcher over the over rated Michael Carrick.

Greetings from Finland! 🙂
Is Stephen Ireland nailed? if so and if he plays in the hole, possible sleeper pickOpen Controls -
What price will Moreno be in FPL ?

"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?
Sky Sports
(RP)Open Controls-
I dont really think so but definitely worth it if he nails down the LWB position at united
Open Controls -
Apparently he went on a following spree of a load of utd players on Instagram 😆
Open Controls

So there is still hope for Diaby after all

Chelsea fans: What's your thoughts on Azpi vs Luis?
Who will start GW1?
I've heard Luis has had a poor pre season, will that affect his chances?
What are JM's plans for his full backs, rotation or just have the three off them fight it out for a position?Open Controls-
Brani has been immense in the first half of this game V Sociedad. find the 7.0

Anyone bringing Mangala in?
Thoughts on Demichelis and Nastasic?Open Controls -
Will never understand the attacking rotation theory, surely if you're good enough to score against one premier league team, you're good enough to score against at least 16 others.
Open Controls-
Agreed.
Open Controls -
Maybe, but some teams score mainly at home.
Open Controls -
Then wouldn't the same apply for defensive rotation? If a player can score against one team, they can score against basically any no matter what the circumstances. So surely this would mean that no team would necessarily have a better chance of keeping a clean sheet. So I should play both of my CPL defenders first GW against Arsenal away because their defence is better than QPR's. All this despite QPR playing Hull at home. If Hull can score against West Brom when they play at home, then surely QPR away is easy.

Open Controls-

Open Controls -
Harsh on Anelka
Open Controls -
It's funny costas scoring like it's nothing yet he doesn't get all this boselli crap give the guy a chance.
Open Controls -
All the casual teams that I have seen has him and Barkley.
Open Controls -
if mark gets bojan it will be hilarious
Open Controls -
I hate having him in my team. But the cash he frees up is *SO* hard to argue with...

Open Controls -
Jones charging about like a maniac again
Open Controls -
Beginning of the end for Shaw?
http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/28763841Open Controls-
He's a central defender primarily
Open Controls-
^This.
Most likely going to be part of the back 3Open Controls

Would love it if his careen was over before it started. Can't stand hype.
Open Controls -
I think he was just a waste of money.
Open Controls -
He's a CB/LB...

I really like my new defence made of:
Ward - Clyne - PvA - Collocini - Ferdinand
It gives me this rotation for the upcoming first 8 GWs, as I will try to squeeze a CHE defender around that time when it will be clearer who is nailed on for Jose this year:
HUL / wba / ars
WHU /WBA / avl
CRY / SUN / qpr (whu)
BUR / NEW / sou (TOT)
STO / HUL / bur
LEI / QPR / SWA
STO / hul / swaOpen Controls-
Fixtures do look good but the only team I even remotely trust to keep CSs out of those is palace
Open Controls-
The only 2 teams in the whole EPL I trust to keep CS are Palace and Chelsea tbh. And waiting woth CHE to be more clear about the choice made.
Open Controls
-
-
Whatever the fixtures are, defenders other than Ward are not gonna keep many CS.
Open Controls -
Really like that, I'm looking to stay cheap in defense and like yourself looking to see who Jose favours
Open Controls -
Would ditch both Ferdinand and pva. Plus, I would not plan further than 4/5 games ahead due to injuries, form and the ease/difficulty of forthcoming fixtures.

What's the betting if Bojan has a good season people on this site will be so stubborn and not put him in.
Open Controls-
This would be funny

Oh Ronaldo.

Always preferred fletcher to wickham
Open Controls -
Having in mind Costa 2 goals until half time:
A) Sturridge
B) Costa
Don't mind the extra cash from BOpen Controls-
I have Sturridge instead of Costa and I'm captaining him GW1.
Open Controls

Young, Mata and Smalling off, Kagawa, Lingard and M. Keane on
Open Controls-

I'd love to see Lingard to go out on loan to another PL club.
