First one

Is Konate a definite starter

Honestly it's quite horrible

Lots of risks in there. Not for me.

Go big or go home draft!

Minefield

Haha stop ripping the new guy everyone.

It's good, go for it else you'll end up with the same players as everyone else here.

Don’t like either but if I had to choose I’d go A I think

C

Grealish

32 Red

Expensive gks not a fan of. I'd rather Pickford. Worried about Iheanacho's rotation, otherwise solid.

Out

100% out

Obvs out

Interesting so far! Thanks for replys

Out

Won’t touch a city player

He will the Norwich game though for sure

Really interesting how people have been thinking about a punt for proven rotate-risky players such as foden, gundo, torres etc. But then city broke the bank for a marquee signing who's points per match was around the same than for those previously mentioned but in a much weeker team.

I definately take the point, and i"m quite happy to take this poll result to be fair - and maybe have a +30% owned "differential" 🙂

Thanks again for all the replys, it was a pleasure!

save it for xfers.

Of those, B

Be as your third sub is likely a 4.0 defender or 4.5 striker

Illegal

Rules state that you'll need to change if and when you make transfers. You can keep until then.

I thought I'd be funny and put Grealish, Kane, Stones, Cancelo and Torres in my side. Can't see me keeping it but it will be funny to have 5 man City

Its a valid team until you make a transfer.

If all goes well my ghost team will end up with 5 city players for the entire season

A lot of Ghost and casual teams will have this , they will not delete your team.

Thanks.
99% I'm not keeping it, but you never know lol!

I do feel they should be something else to stop people doing this
Like only 3 players in a team gets points

A) but prefer Ings or DCL to start

Less football but more trophies and more money.

I am sure he will see plenty of football. City haven't spent 100 million just to bench him every week

Money money money money

Moooooooonnnnnneeeeeyyy

i think it would be a shame for a player to not want to test themselves against the best teams and instead settled for a mid-level club because everyone loves you.

sure there's the romanticism of being at one club and lifting them to glory - but that's not how it really works - the richest clubs win everything.

What would you do? Turn it down?
He will play more. CL, cups etc.

City fight in 4 competitions, often to the very latter stages.

Less premier league football yes, but less football? no.

Training, pretty hopeful.

WIth a wrist cast.

There are so many holes,
1 in jota,iheanacho,toney each
2 in Antonio
Your bench also got further 3 holes !!!
Jokes apart got a nice team on a first draft!!!liked it.

To me I'm leaning away from Jota.
I think in that 7.5 I might go with Pepe for week 1 instead...but also it's all up to preference.

Folks also seem to be thinking Iheanacho won't start, or will come off early with Daka & Vardy around.
If he plays I love him, but that seems like some kind of risk.

Pretty strong. Raphinha fixtures don't do it for me though (especially with Shaw in defence). Mahrez could also be on the bench after GW1.

Triple Leeds with those fixtures?

0.5 itb also

I like this a lot

Nice

I’d stick with Buendia ; its a good team and you have Bruno already

My 8th year, but a two week holiday and it's gone back to newby!

Nine dimensions

Grealish will be more on the pitch than on the bench, same with Foden I think

why? huge rotation risk

expensive midfielders more vital.
vardy will probably get like 15 goals this season as usual, a good return, but you can get 12 goals possibly with a 7-8m striker instead

Daka is fkn strong and Vardy is fkn old.

both

Better form? In pre season? Wut? Go on history (and pens) > Salah

always Salah

Mané any day. Salah will be gone in winter.

Salah peaks at the right time.

Think it's quite fun, shame ESR is on the bench though for Brentford.

Greenwood for Raph, think you need some Utd attack

Bench isnt great.

Barnes could be Toney and use the spare change to get a 2nd 4.5 defender, but then you are back to the template pretty much.

Same team except I have
Veltman, Greenwood, ings, for your
Shaw, buendia, DCL
I may go back to Shaw buendia though as it looks better
So yeah, I like it

B

Where is Havertz going to play when Lukaku signs?

Very close one. Personally prefer B, but would require a decent bench player or two.

A is more safe.

If no TAA yet, then go TAA+Sarr?

Different. But I like it a lot. Nice.
