    1. ihateramsey2
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      captaining aguero for 20mins playing time is like captaining anyone else for a dgw

      Who are you going to bench? Love the lens pick, very tempted myself!!

      1. Brinky07
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        My current dilemma!

        Either Lens or Wilson at the moment .

        Keep changing my mind!

      2. Starvaiger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Maybe he'll play is 2- 5- 3 card!

    Please RMT thanks

    Cech (Schwarzer)
    Ivanovic, Cedric, Huth (Francis/,Targett)
    Hazard, Walcott, Sterling, Ritchie (Mahrez)
    Rooney, Benteke , Wilson

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Are you rotating Ritchie and mahrez? I would downgrade one and use cash to get arsenal defender

      1. Swanmoretime
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Will probably rotate them but was going to use Cech as my Arsenal defensive option

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I missed cech! Looks a strong team but not too keen on rotating mid/fwds

          1. Swanmoretime
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            My other option is to replace

            Cech with Schmeichel
            Ivanovic with Bellerin
            Mahrez with Sterling

            1. Swanmoretime
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Sorry meant Mahrez with Mane

    Hi all, thanks for the replies earlier.

    I have 1.5m in the bank and here are a few options I was considering this evening:

    A) Upgrade Sakho-->Pelle (Have Mane already)

    B) Upgrade Francis-->Azpilicueta

    C) Save the money to make future transfers for Aguero easier

    Thanks

    1. YouReds
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      will

    2. Adro3
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Don't have him, but think he'll start on the wing

    3. A111
      • 11 Years

      Will

  7. CABAYE4

    Suddenly tempted by a GW1 Mirallas one week punt in for Chadli...

    Time to step away from the computer?

    1. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Everton are a shoe-in tomorrow. They'll score 3 I think

      1. ​
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        skipper Lukaku?

      2. CABAYE4
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I looked at the fixtures for a last time and thought the same.

        Just seen Mirallas is a doubt, you think he'll play? He's a rotation risk at the best of times.

        1. Granville
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Dunno. I had Naismith in my side until yesterday. It's really tough to know who will play tomorrow with Lukaku being a doubt

          1. CABAYE4
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            And Martinez loves a left field rotation option. Watch him start Oviedo on the left wing.

            Calmed myself down with the thought of DDG not playing and Blind and Jones at CB.

  8. YouReds
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Is it worth taking a punt on Gomez for pool's home games?

    if not, who are the better two rotating pair of 4.5 defs? Coates and Huth?

    1. ​
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      If you can put him as a 5th defender sure, but dont bank on him. And yes those two are good.

      1. YouReds
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks,yep 5th defender. Welcome to my team Gomez!

    2. Leeroy357
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I'm risking it. I don't think it is any more of a punt that Coates

  9. JoshJNG
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Can I get some feedback for my team please
    Schmeichel - (Fabianski)

    Richards - Cédric - Bellerín - Kolarov - (Francis)

    Silva - Depay - Redmond - (Mahrez) - (Bentaleb)

    Pellè - Benteke - Costa

    Then 4 million in the bank

    1. Mork calling Orson
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Costa & depay > Rooney & Hazard. Certain starters.

      1. JoshJNG
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        thanks for that

  10. Empeee
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    A or B?

    Ruddy (Rudd)
    Azpilicueta Huth Gomez (Francis Targett)
    Hazard Walcott Mane Lens (Surman)
    Rooney Benteke Kane

    Ruddy (Rudd)
    Azpilicueta Mertesacker Gomez (Huth Targett)
    Hazard Walcott Mane Lens Depay
    Benteke Kane (Deeney)

    1. A111
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      A

  11. Areid13
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    I'm surprised that no one has Romero in their team considering that DDG isn't playing and Man U have good fixtures and of course only 5.0

    1. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      If the transfer doesn't go through then DDG will be back in the side.

  12. Rossg123
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Would appreciate some feedback

    GK: Howard, Ruddy

    Defenders: Azpilicueta, Koscielny, Cedric, Schlupp, Coates

    Midfielders: Henderson, Cazorla, Hazard, Mahrez, Wanyama

    Strikers: Rooney, Benteke, Pelle

    Subs: Ruddy, Coates, Mahrez, Wanyama

    1. Mattdrid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Howard? Fixtures not great after 1st game. I had Wanyama a lot last season and got a lot of 1's (as always got a yellow card) so never again for me. Has high ownership too so if people start shipping him out then value going to drop. If you downgraded Howard to a 4.5 then you could swap wanyama for a 5.0 midfielder. Team looks good to me otherwise.

  13. Tomeister
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Lukaku or Pelle?

    1. brianj
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Pelle

    2. A111
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Pelle

  14. Jay Jay Okocha
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Please help!

    Ruddy, Rudd
    Mert, Cedric, Huth, ____ (4.5), Taylor
    Hazard, ____, ____, Chadli, Bentaleb
    Aguero, Benteke, Sakho

    Really struggling to fill the last few spots. 17.0 total to spend on the two mids...

    Thanks in advance!

    1. Rossg123
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Mane and Ritchie

      1. Jay Jay Okocha
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Like Mane, hate Ritchie

    2. Adro3
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Mane and Ozil = 16.5m

  15. Richard_b
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Trippier or Cedric?

    1. A111
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      cedric

  16. brianj
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on this squad?

    Cech / Schwarzer

    Kos / Baker / Clyne / (Steven Taylor) / (Cedric)

    Haz / Mane / Ozil /Sterling / Wanyama

    Benteke / Rooney (c) / Deeney

    1. Rossg123
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Very good team

      1. JoshJNG
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        What about this one.
        Schmeichel - (Fabianski)

        Richards - Cédric - Bellerín - Kolarov - (Francis)

        Silva - Depay - Walcott - (Redmond) - (Bentaleb)

        Pellè - Benteke - Costa

        1. brianj
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Costa is a doubt so I'd recommend getting someone else

  17. scallywag
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    RMT - This has taken many many attempts 🙂

    Schmeichel / Hennessey

    Kos / Ivan / Francis / Huth / Ward

    Haz / Walcott / Mane / Mahrez / Ritchie

    Rooney / Tekkers / Bamford

    Any thoughts on Bamford? - Can see palace getting a couple tomorrow and he's main man then two home games.....

    Cheers!!

  18. Leeroy357
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Rooney - Benteke - Wilson is becoming VERY template now. I guess injuries to Costa, Aguero and Lukaku have forced it a bit.

  19. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years

    How nailed on percentage wise are
    A. Jerome
    B. anya

  20. sweensa
    • 11 Years

    Evening all. Anyone considering Bamford as a third striker. ?

  21. 3 years & counting
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Who's the best midfield pick priced at £5.5 million and under?

    I'm currently on Mahrez but I'm now starting to seriously consider Hoolahan.

    1. JonnyAFC
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Anya at Watford 4,5

  22. Koofax
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Please share your thoughts 🙂

    Butland, Ruddy
    Mertesacker, Clyne, Cedric, Oshea, Richards
    Haz, Walcott, Tadic, Oxlade, Redmond
    Rooney, Benteke, Pelle

  23. lancet

    Evening, any thoughts on my team would be much appreciated:

    Pants - Hennessy
    Kos - Cedric - Francis - Jenkinson - Gomez
    Walcott - Sterling - Fab - Depay - Surman
    Rooney - Sakho - Pelle

    thanks.

  24. A111

    Please RMT...and be brutal

    Ruddy (Hennessey)

    Azpi Cedric Huth (Targett, Turner)

    Hazard Cazorla Wally Ritchie (Bentelab)

    Roo Benteke Kane

    I'll go for Wally --> Sterling after GW1
    Aguero plan: Roo + Benteke/Kane --> Kun, Wilson

  25. Adro3
    • 12 Years

    Best 4.5m mdfielder and why? Cheers

  26. Maravilla13
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    First Post.. Any thoughts/advice for the below?

    Ruddy
    Azpi, Francis, Huth (Bassong, Cedric)
    Hazard, Ozil, Sterling, Mahrez, Ritchie
    Rooney (C), Benteke (Sakho)

  27. cjensen2424
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Benteke or Kane. Cheers!

    1. brianj
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I'd go with Tekkers

  28. Donkey_Sanctuary
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    RMT please. All comments welcome!

    GK: Ruddy / Butland
    DEF: Koscielny / Cedric / Francis / Huth / Coates
    MID: Hazard / Walcott / Mane / Ritchie / Ki
    FOR: Rooney / Kane / Deeney

    1m ITB

    Thinking behind it:

    GK: Rutland: seems as good as GK rotation as any (I always score poorly from GKs and often pick the wrong one so happy enough with this!)

    DEF: 24.5 so quite cheap. Might get a CHE / MCI defender as season goes on

    MID: Tried to go for goal scorers. Too scared to not have Hazard for the first week. Prefer Ki to the 4.5 options

    FOR: Rooney a good early pick and first week captain. Will probably make room for Aguero in a GW3/4 restructure! Keeney rotates well with Ritchie. Kane - a bit of a punt but might still be value at 9.5. Also easy to transfer out for Benteke, Pelle depending on form or downgrade to someone cheaper to facilitate Rooney to Aguero

    Hey guys, would very much appreciate feedback on this:
    GK: Boruc, Pantilimon
    Def: Ivanovic, Mings, Hellerin, Targett, R Martin
    Mid: Walcott, Hazard, Sterling, Sinclair, Ritchie
    Fwd: Rooney, Benteke, Zarate

    1. thunder_mike
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ditch Zarate for someone else, Deeney or Wilson

  30. Nitil44

    Hi, any feedback on my team??

    Cech (Butland)
    Moreno Richards Cedric (Simpson, Janmaat)
    Walcott Henderson Depay Hazard (Bolassie)
    Rooney Wilson Pelle

    Thanks
