Today’s Wembley showpiece between Chelsea and Arsenal affords Fantasy managers further opportunity to scout our options for the upcoming campaign, with the Premier League kick off now just six days away.

For the Blues, Diego Costa is sidelined due to “discomfort in his hamstring” once again. Loic Remy is handed the chance to lead the line in the Spain international’s absence, with loan signing Radamel Falcao on the bench. William and Ramires join Eden Hazard in the attacking midfield three behind Remy, with Jose Mourinho naming last season’s defensive regulars along with Cesc Fabregas and Nemanja Matic in the double-pivot.

Theo Walcott gets the chance to lead the line for Arsenal, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain selected in the XI as Olivier Giroud is named amongst the subs. Arsene Wenger’s side are as expected, otherwise, with Hector Bellerin selected ahead of Mathieu Debuchy at right-back, whilst Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey join Oxlade-Chamberlain in the positions behind Walcott. Jack Wilshere misses out through injury for the Gunners.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      I'm keeping him, much easier to downgrade/move sideways if needs be than it is create funds for a heavy hitter.

    How strongly does the new BPS system favour tackling? As useless as Mert looks, happy to bank the 0.5 if Kosc's tackling doesn't get him much?

      It doesn't have to be one or the other. If you are planning Aguero and another big striker (Rooney for most) then having Haz as well is near on impossible. You end up with such an unbalanced side.

    Any good 3 say defensive rotations? I have Butland and Ruddy in net so I don't want those teams but might have to as I am too picky. I have no faith in Bournemouth, Palace or Villa defenders.
