        There was an article that stated that spending extra on a keeper paid off. By 'Hedge'. I am on Ddg at present. Would prefer Awb as my Manu def but then would have only 2 City and we can't do that.

          I worry for spurs at the minute. If utd do get off to a good start it could be a struggle.

          Chelsea is anyone's guess really.

              I'm a pessimist. Teams often start one season as they finished the last, and we were struggling.

              Eriksen is a big void to fill if he goes.

    What do people think of the prospect of having a 5.5 defender on the bench?

    Thinking of getting Rose rather than KWP, as I reckon the only advantage of having a spurs defender is when they can play GW 1,3,5 , whereas if we're unlucky KWP might not even get to GW 3...

      With davies and sessegnon, rose is no more nailed.
