B) Costa, Sterling, 5.5
C) Costa, Silva, DavisOpen ControlsCan someone please try and predict stokes back 4 ?

Anyone care to RMT? Thanks!
Begovic - Myhill
Cahill - Jones - PVA - Wisdom - Bruce
Eriksen - Ramsey - Mata - Sterling
Rooney - Costa - Austin
0.5 to spare. Not sure where to use it.Open Controlsis girord going to start for arsenal>
Open ControlsLooks like I am the only one without any Arsenal players at. With Pulis' bus at home in GW1, followed by Everton & Leicester away and then City (with Hart, Zaba, Mangala, Aguero et al back), I hope I am not being too crazy. Or am I?
Open Controlsyou can go without themat the beginning for sure lots of good options elsewheere
Open Controls
I want to get in ward
get rid of hutton or wisdom?Open ControlsAnyone know how long it takes to process articles? I submitted mine hours ago
Open ControlsDzeko & Sterling + 4.5 MID
OR
Coutinho & Mata + 4.5 FWD
??Open ControlsHow many are going with Sterling?
I've upgraded from Tadic; but I'm not sold yet.Open ControlsKeep Tripper or upgrade to a 6.0 luis or vertoghen?
if I keep him I can upgrade another 4.0 to 5.0 like ward or caulkerOpen ControlsThoughts on Martin Kelly at Palace?
Will he start right away?Open ControlsWard or Clyne, who would you have starting GW2?
Open ControlsNot an RMT, just an RMD 😀
Cahill, Ward, Rio, Chester, Naylor
Decent rotation between those 4 cheap defenders, it gives these fixtures for the first 7 GWs, along with a Chelsea defender.
1: HUL & qpr
2: BUR & WHM
3: SUN & WBA
4: BUR & WHM
5: STO & SOT
6: LEI & sun
7: CPL & NEWOpen ControlsHow sure are we if spurs midfield line up? I'm suddenly wandering if Erik is as nailed as I thought with the emergence of holtby in pre season. Erik a level up in class IMO, surely ponch can see that as well
Open ControlsArnie or Snoddy the better pick to start the season with?
Open Controlsarnie plays for the better attacking team and on pens
Open Controls
Which Chelsea defender (in your opinion) is the most nailed on? I don't want to pay 6M on Filipe Luis if he doesn't start...
Open ControlsHow bad was JEvans "knock"? missed it......
Open ControlsI'm finding with my latest draft that I have to downgrade one midfielder
Which 2 of Ramsey, Sterling, Mata would you keep?Open ControlsTo be honest the question really becomes which one of Sterling or Mata do I keep? Ramsey is too good.
Open Controls
Fill the gap
Clyne - Terry - Caulker - PVA - ???
4.5m availableOpen ControlsWisdom keep the change
Open Controls
Getting hard to ignore Costa's form.
All the more that he has the fixtures.Open ControlsI think he is an excellent shout. great (C) option for GW2 as well
Open ControlsAway.....digging Rooney
Open Controls
would you drop Hazard for Costa? If you had to choose one. Hazard just isn't showing the form even in the assist department.
Open Controls
Yep he has won me over
Open Controls
Is Fabregas and Costa too much Chelsea coverage or should I downgrade Fabregas to Eriksen ?
Open ControlsIm just going with Costa actually.
Open ControlsFabregas will be the master of the pre-assist I think. I'd trade him out.
Open Controls
Got stuck on the last page a second before it updated
I'm finding with my latest draft that I have to downgrade one midfielder
Which 2 of Ramsey, Sterling, Mata would you keep?Open ControlsLose sterling
Open Controls
Do you think Cameron will play GW2?
Open ControlsBest defender priced at 4.0?
Open ControlsMoore is the best (leicester fan)
but for fixtures and expected game time probably WisdomOpen ControlsYeah I've seen a lot of people go Wisdom... is he defs gonna start for WBA?
Open ControlsAlso I don't have a problem going with a Leicester def for this option since whoever it is is like a 2nd backup (not even first backup). Might not even play till a few fixtures in anyway.
Open Controls
A or B, lads...
Bego Myhill
Kelly Chester Naylor Wisdom Hutton
Yaya Hazard Ramsey Siggy JWP
Studge Roon Diouf
Or
Bego Myhill
Kelly Chester Naylor Wisdom Hutton
Yaya Ramsey Januzaj Siggy Grealish
Studge Roon CostaOpen ControlsFirst one but I think you can do a better job with the second team to get that front line. Clearly you want yaya but downgrading to mata will give you 2m to pump up jan into someone decent.
Who is grealish?Open ControlsAgree. Killing me to leave Mata out. But Yaya will be a massive differential here. Almost no one here has him. And Januzaj is almost certain to start up front GW1. From there I'm sure there will be a bandwagon to hop on.
Grealish is an Irish Aston Villa whizkid.Open Controls
Kurl/Foster
Cahill/Ward/BillyJones/Moore/Wisdom
Sanchez/Ramsey/Mata/Siggy/Wanayama
Roo/Costa/Diouf
0.5 left over.
What do you think about double up on ARS mids? Missed the Community Shield, was Alexis on set pieces?Open ControlsI dabbled with it for a while. But my feeling is Sanchez is not quite ready to justify the price tag so I have reluctantly downgraded him from squad member to watch list
Open ControlsWait on Sanchez. Might as well bring in Yaya with the 0.5.
Open ControlsHi CF. City were so undercooked and lackadaisical in the CS it was untrue. Arsenal had the game in the bag by half time. Sanchez was half a yard behind his team mates and his passing wasn't great but it was clear that once they get used to each other he's going to be dynamite.
Open ControlsLooks good CF. Loving the diouf pick. I got him in a draft league. I seem to remember something about Jones being injured?
Open ControlsThinking im on YAYA now. after GW3 will downgrade him to free funds and jump on bandwagons.
Open Controls
I like your team CF, very similar to mine ( although that may not neccessarily be a good thing ). I'm a Dioufus ( © Fuzzy Warbles ) as well, could be the best discount forward this year.
Open Controls
ManU defensive coverage necessary?
Open ControlsI hope not 😉
Open ControlsHow does you backline look at the moment Champ?
Open ControlsMannone/4.0
Luis Ward Ferdinand Chester Hutton
It's the only part of my team that's not locked in. Cheap defenders and keepers are a clusterfuk this seasonOpen ControlsThat's why i've opted for an expensive one but that doesn't look too bad though If I were going that cheap i'd want to make sure I was nailed on everywhere and I think Moore is more so than Hutton
Open ControlsYeah good point. People have me worried about Mannone too. Only other options are Green and Krul. Chester > Mariappa is tempting too but they might sign a left back
Open Controls
Do people think Holtby will start early doors?
Open ControlsYes he should but they have ridiculous depth at cm so can't say for sure
