      I'd be tempted by Ederson to a 4.5 (Heaton as good as any) and Siggy to KDB. He looks sharp, unlike Everton.

      Don't have him in my team by the way.

        I had something similar for a while but it felt too out of balance. though i was trying to still squeeze in zinchenko.

    What chance of Origi starting in GW1? I'm guessing it's likely, since there's a good chance that one of Firmino or Mane will still be working on match fitness.

    What chance of Origi starting in GW2? Probably pretty low, I'm thinking.

      Very good we are staying strong with Robinson together he will come good I am certain, he has to.
      Love the defence, midfield and attack. Just not overly confident in your GK think i’d Take the easy way out and do Pickford > heaton and Robinson > Perez
      I also think Rico is a better 4m defender for what it’s worth as I really doubt Lundstram plays 1st team football for SHU this season. You are of course G2G

          Fair Robinson can do the trick I think, Perez fixtures tougher than we are all hoping for.

          Rico spent the whole of pre season playing with the 1st team defence and even in their last game when Daniels was fit too Rico played alongside Ake Cook and Smith.
          Maybe he is a few bad performances away from the bench but he is the best we have and certainly better than Lunny who has Freeman, Morrison and Duffy to compete with

      I'd downgrade AWB (because I don't like their opening run of fixtures) to Zouma (since he now seems like a likely Chelsea starter at 5.0 or Ake) and upgrade Lundstram or Dendoncker. Maybe downgrade Pickford too to a 4.5. Otherwise a good team.

      I like it a lot. Pulisic still a wait and see for me, would rather start with Fraser, but it's a toss up really at this point. Maybe downgrade Murray to fodder, Wilson to Vardy/Laca?

        Thank you for your feedback. Funny, I am American and usually get criticized for being really hard on our players but he was my one stretch. I agree about Murray he just still produces at such a good price. I really think Wilson could break out this year almost like Vardy did the year Leicester won it. I keep feeling like I can find some more value in Def somewhere

          Pulisic seems awesome, you might be right on that!

          As for value on defence, only option for me if I had your team would be Laporte. Maybe, just maybe, Laporte-Spurs/United def for 5.5. I don't like that, but then again, it's an option.

          Good luck!

          As for the defenders, I like Guilbert/Cathcart. Zouma at 5.0 but not quite sure he plays..

            The thing for me is that moura is a striker and not a midfielder. When he plays, Kane goes deeper. I might punt on him.

            If I'm sure Zouma is nailed I'll go for him. I'll keep checking until deadline

          I suspect so. There's some chance Christensen might start, but chance are low. Luiz going to Arsenal makes Zouma's place more secure.
