Jota instead of Eriksen sorry

No matter what the analysts say, the attack is too weak from the off. Balance should be the top priority for GW 1.

My issue isn't necessarily with the attack, it's the bench - it's simply non-existent. Downgrade somewhere to improve the bench.

Downgrade Zaha to Austin and upgrade your awful bench

You have 4 forwards for a start!

Unless Bailly emerges as nailed in preseason, I’d opt for a more nailed option. Perhaps use the funds from that to strengthen your bench. One or both of Zaha/Arnie will disappoint in the opening 8 weeks.

Just put him in not even 45 seconds ago.

Nailed for how long? Also, he'll likely be playing for a depleted side. Better value for money elsewhere for sure.

Surprising considering how resistant people were to the idea that Rose could be chosen to play any part of the season whilst Davies was there last year, multiple times. 😆

Davies was supposedly worth 6.0+ easily last season, yet as you say nobody's jumping on him this time. I guess player price can genuinely strongly influence people's beliefs. That's my main explanation for it anyway.

Personally not planning to get him for the rotation reason. I don't tend to plan future transfers when I'm currently on unlimited transfers. I started last season with Bavies, but sold him early as Rose was first "coming back to fitness". I was appalled at the fact that Davies continued to haul regardless, before Rose was injured again 😆 I still continued to ignore him at 5.5, so it would be weird to get him at 6.0, unless I was sure he would start at least 3 in a row (I'm not), and I was happy to spend a transfer on him or let him be autosubbed (I'm not, really, either).

Make sense?

He’s in my side!

Cedric at Home GW1 looks better off your bench imo.

Could work...D is very budget though.

4 City?

At least with Sané and Mahrez you'll be guaranteed to get the points of the one that isn't benched.

The latter

Awful quite frankly.

Balanced to me is 2 each high priced D, mids and forwards. How would you ever get in another forward priced 10 or up in without dropping Mo or Auba? You have the D and mids but if your goal is balanced the forwards are lacking imo.

would you be starting both every week?

if so A

the world cup players might miss the opening 2/3 weeks

Both?

Too early to tell. Just write "7.0" on your screen for now.

A, I guess

A

Not sure, mate.

or Deulopass even 😉

What are your rival's captain options looking like?

Depends on the information you gather from the first 2 GWs.

You probably shouldn't be thinking about your GW3 transfer yet.

Cedric

Very week

Yes

balanced

Not enough in defence

Cheers

Who are your 5.0s in defence at the mo?

Like the defense line (think PVA might not be worth 1 mil over Tomkins). Mid is good but I wouldnt be doubling up on Everton just yet. Dont like the front line.

Omg even worse than Swedens Marcus Berg

The shots he takes on though: some of them his he's moving away from goal with his head nearly touching the ground! Other players might not even get to the ball, might fail to control it or shoot and miss by miles, but Giroud has a habbit of peppering the goal area with shots from positions he has no right to. If one of them is on target, it'll be hard to save.

I may have oversold him there. I'm glad Arsenal sold him on the whole, but you're not giving him enough credit 🙂

Reminiscent of that striker they had when they won the world cup in 1998. Scored no goals

Salah says hello

50/50, I'd go Mkhi for the extra 0.5m

mhki for me... these .5's are hard to come by!

Start with Rambo, downgrade if necessary

cheers all!

Right now:

GK: 9
DEF: 26
MID: 36
FWD: 29

5.0 - 4.0
6.5 - 4.5 - 4.5 - 4.5 - 4.5
13.0 - 9.5 - 7.0 - 6.5 - 5.5
11.0 - 9.5 - 4.5

GK: 9m
DF: 24.5m
MF: 41.5m
FW: 25m

4.5, 4.0
6.5, 6.0, 4.5, 4.5, 4.0
13.0, 10.0, 7.5, 4.5, 4.5
9.5, 7.0, 6.0

GK: 8.5m
DEF: 25.5m
MID: 39.5m
FOR: 22.5m
(ITB 4.0m)

GK: 10
DEF: 26
MID: 39.5
FWD: 24.5

doesnt make sense to me... certainly will be starting the first few weeks anyway... re-evaluate after world cup players return

Risk of rotation is my guess

KDB planned for my perma City attacker

Stekelenburg (cover for Pickford)
Peltier/Bennett
Masuaku/Gunnarsson/Stephens
Lord Quaner

Probably not

We should have Utd teamsheet just before the GW1 deadline hopefully... Pogba could be great. Lingard could also, but Martial has highest upside of them all albeit he isn’t nailed

First Courtois draft I've seen, and for good reason 😀

Otherwise it looks fun, I like it. I'd worry about Pogba starting GW1 especially.

Strong! Would downgrade Fab to 4.0 and spend cash elsewhere

Lots of quality in that front 7, Theo & Pogba are high on my watchlist... Pogba particularly, if only he had been 7.5, but he could easily end up a 9.5 next year if he kicks on again... same with Mkhi, and Theo has never been this cheap, it’s not that long ago he was 9.0 as well.

One thought though, in my opinion your team would be improved by going Ederson-Alonso rather than Courtois-Otamendi... and I’m a VVD fan rather than Robertson as I think Robertson will lose a few games to Moreno... would also prefer Cedric to Charlie Daniels... I think Daniels is fools gold!

Oh, and all our other players are literally identical, and I'm planning to cover his Kane (C).

What the Fuchs

Solid... would you not like an extra Liverpool attacker though? Maybe KDB/Mané instead of Alexis/Silva?
