The Rate My Team Discussion

With so many of you seeking advice on their teams before August 16, we thought it would be 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.

For today’s final RMT discussion we’ve managed to grab Mark’s current lineup…

DeGea, Elliot
Ivanovic, Caulker, C Davies, Debuchy, Hutton
Ramsey, Sterling, Mutch, Siggurdson, Young
Rooney, Costa, Giroud

So Mark has currently ditched the Bojan/Sigurdsson rotation and opted for three big-hitters up front. He’s turned down the option of Jovetic and backed Arsenal with three players, despite a testing opening to their season. He’s spent on goal threat at the back with Ivanovic, Caulker and Curtis Davies, whilst he’s banking on Ashley Young to help compensate for the loss of Juan Mata.

Feel free to get stuck in with your feedback. We look forward to scanning your RMTs throughout the day on this article.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    It comes down to this

    1. DDG Bardsley and 4.5 mid

    Or

    2. Begovic Bruce and Mutch + .5 million in bank ( leaves no united defensive cover)

    Thoughts ? Thanks and good luck

    Begovic (Krul)
    Chambers Debuchy Terry (PVA, Wisdom)
    Young Hazard Mata Eriksen Ramsey
    Jovetic Rooney (Bojan)

    Doesn't fit the formula everyone else has but will rotate between Young and Bojan. Also torn between Young and Mutch.

      I fancy Jovetic over Dzeko but i'm going with Dzeko because he seems safer with Aguero in squad.
      If you go with Jovetic leave 0.5m in the bank for transfers(better options in the 8.5m price tag than 8m and under)
