no

Expected to be nailed by Watford fans, I believe, and me. But it's a little early to say for sure

If he is, I'll go for him instead of Cairney. He started off great last season before his injury.

currently he has just played first game in the U19 championship-will competing in this competition help or hinder his watford nailability?
I'd suggest in the short term it might question it

Cheers all! Seems like he's likely to start but not fully nailed. Will see how they line up in pre season.

Personally prefer Hughes but he's 0.5m more if you can find it?

From my dodgy memory they start off relatively well, then run out of steam half way through.

usually get off to a good start if they have easy fixtures, then go in a lull of draws, and then the defeats start rolling in

they uaually win a few draw a few lose a few

According to Triggerlips, they difficult to play against for the first 6 weeks or so. The general assumption is that they are going to be on the back foot, adjusting to a new league, though it depends on the team. Wolves, for example, are expected to be the tightest, and most difficult opponent at both ends of the pitch (it seems), but some put that down to the bookies manipulating odds to make money.

Basically, you can't really blanket promoted teams with a generalisation, so you should be wary of taking them for granted as easy opponents or of putting too much faith in the Championship's highest performers last year.

Not really helpful, but not much more I can say 🙂

Usually a few games that surprise a bit, could see Cardiff doing Bournemouth, for example, then maybe beating Newcastle & Hud, then the pause, then the slide.

Fairly sure Huddersfield were joint top after 3 games last year. Something like that anyway

A

The one that costs £1m more

it keeps me up at night

Looks pretty decent, I’m reasonably similar (No Salah tho) so maybe biased!

Fab Bego
Rob Bailly Bavies Sakho AWB
Eriksen Mahrez Mané Cairney Ralls
Auba Firm Wilson

Malcom may take Theo’s minutes if he goes to Everton.

I'd say defence looks pretty risky to get at least 3 of them to play every week.

I have no intentions of doing so 😉
Looks alright to me though (if that means anything)
What are Reid? Not heard much about him

The worst team I've ever seen.

Reid is reverse oop and plays for Cardiff

+1

his asistant is Stephan Kuntz

Should sign Umtiti and Wood

That's nothing, his wife's called Ophelia

his mum is fanny chmelar

have an upvote for not including man u

son is at asian games until september lukaku wont start the season either

A and no

A.

Maybe look at Wood from Burnley

i get a meaningless stat

a headache?

Dunno

This is the best team I've ever seen.

Yours is rubbish, can you rate mine?

Ryan, Button.

Mendy, Lindelöf/Shaw, Cédric, Wan-Bissaka, Peltier.

Salah, Mahrez, Martial, Cairney, Chalobah.

Kane, Agüero, Reid.

im not sure there's any point in the rest of us turning up

this one is way better

Looks alright to me though (if that means anything)
What are Reid? Not heard much about him

Weird, I think they changed something in the matrix

Are you confident of Kane starting GW1 or just budgeting for getting him back? I like it though, I've gone very similar and also punting on the two 4m def starting to free up cash to fund it.

1, both should start

I'm sure it's fine but I feel like I need to do a headstand to read it.

Brilliant

Head ache material !

I’d say it’s the reverse template.

Spent way too much on GKs - £35m+ is extreme

Why not Salah?

Tomkins

This is a decision that has to be made no more than a week before GW1, really. If Schloop looks favourite for LW, then him.

King

Austin. He scores goals just for the craic

yep, all of them. for different reasons though

Valencia and Alonso aren't worth it anyway. I'm going Aguero, don't really care about Jesus rotation

Decent. You could downgrade Ramsey to Mkhi to upgrade Cairney to Deulofeu? Deu and Highes seem the best value in that price range to me. You can use your strong bench to cover their fixtures in 4, 5 and 7.

Not liking Kane. Usually a slow starter.
Arn & Zaha might be pushed out to the sides
Daniels is

Enough to put me off owning Dilva.

You have as much time on your hands as me!

actually forget that I can't be arsed and I want to go to bed

bye

Ederson
Robertson Cedric ?
Salah Sane Mkhi Jota(?) Deulofeu
Aguero Firmino

Strong bench 😉

gg

Don’t like your mids

Ooh now if one of your mids was 4.5 you could have Tosun/Arnie/Zaha

Don't see the value in de Gea at 6m, if you're going premium I'd go Ederson as he's at least cheaper than the City defenders.

Didn't he post that weeks ago?

But Chelsea have Caballero 😉

A

Yuck at both from me.

A with Kabasele

I have the feeling people aren't going to be kind about it...

Keita & Jorginho not the most attacking players imo, I would include one at the very most. Like the Sanchez pick though

Sounds like a great suggestion to me

i like it

Just captain Salah most of the time. Points don't get any bigger than that if he can repeat last season's form (and why shouldn't he?). Your squad will almost certainly also contain one or two other big hitters such as Auba and Kun who can fill in when required. Simples!

It might be interesting to consider alternatives though in case he misses part of the season through injury or unexpectedly loses form.

Googled 'armstrong premier league' and didn't find anyone that fit the bill.

Looked at 5.0 and 4.5 midfielders and couldn't find anyone with that name. Also no idea who Costa is.

Rest of it looks pretty standard.

not until september

No, he's probably out for the first 4 games with Asian games.

If he doesn't want to go to that, he's being drafted to the army.

So he's definitely out, either way.

Alright, Thanks !
