Improving Burnley on FPL radar ahead of fixture turn

For a team with only one Pool defense I really like it. Personally I’d have VVD for Dunk and Deu to Junk and play 4-4-2 though.

Agree although can see shef Utd struggling for goals this season

If he nails down the CAM spot obviously go for him but there’s no chance he will for me

For what he can do? When was the last time you watched him play? That clip for England u21s in training?

The biggest bargain of all time yeah

You will use up your 1st two free transfers getting him out.

Best argument against is he takes up a Pool spot

Yes, but you need a plan after GW2.

Currently Foyth and Walker-Peters are qualified, with Foyth suspended.

I think they'll sign someone.

TAA

For me it's 1. Robbo 2. TAA 3. VVD

Bavies nailed?

He's still got the skills. It whether he wants it. Fact that he's firing for Chile doesn't mean that he does.

He is capable but OGS would have to build the team around him, as Wenger did. Is that likely to happen, United fans?

I think he is not first in line atm, Martial, and probably even James is ahead of him. But ofc it could change if he is given the opportunity and he starts firing

7!!! Wow! Very interesting

No

Do you really think he is being honest

Gollum has lost the plot. Gone by Christmas for sure.

He's not gonna say that he's completely useless, lol. Don't read too much into it.

Good player but I fear his body is shot.

No, not together. It was always one or the other.

They only use one up top. If their options and the manager’s style I would say Andone is most likely. He also played the half with the first choice wingers grossers and jahanbaksh either side of him in their pre season match

The midfield could be good, not too sure about Luiz v United in the opener. Forwards aren't good enough in my opinion.

I've not seen Salag play before but I'll get him in my team just for the name.

Not a bad idea.

Not keen on Sharp though. Perhaps go for Origi if you plan an early WC.

King Sig

Anderson Wilson

There are assets in the squads of BOU, SOU, Burnley and others. Who do you think will keep more clean sheets?

Possibly Diop/other West Ham, but pickings are slimmer than a stick insect on a diet.

Burnley, thinking Taylor

Diop/balbuena or max aarons-but tough start or targett for me

I’m considering O’Connell.

An obvious punt involved but my expectations for any 4.5 is a probable 2 points that may hit from time to time. Some attacking potential is part of the balance for me.

Villa

Mings for CBI If Engels pairs which I think he will he likes to score set piece goals

Kiko F

West Ham / Burnley

1st game of pre-season.

Or, he is just shite.

Probably the latter.

B if zinchenko starts

Liverpool, Bournemouth, Arsenal?

Damn, forgot that was on. All these great games are making for an unproductive day 😆

Rashford had earlier hit the post from a Lindelof throughball.

Pogba on set piece duties (a lot though Rashford would be).

PES*

🙂

Yawn.

you should be getting Pukki for gw 2

Well there's the article right here on FFS if you care to look.

Playing CDM?

Posted about him the other day. I think he's a great pick. Nailed, pens and probably verbally promised he can leave next summer ala Suarez, Bale, Ronaldo etc.

Watch pre season. Loads of value in promoted teams

5 expensive defenders is horrendous for me

Yes; I'd just find an extra 0.5m for a second playing sub. Otherwise, all good, even though no Salah and Sterling is unusual.

The problem is getting the right players.. Above example has now Liverpool or City attacking players, put some of those in and its tough to afford the concept..

feels like a strategy to make a set-and-forget zombieteam

No attacking options from either Liverpool or City a little big risky imho.

I like your alternative (but logical) approach.

No City attack fails at the concept stage imo - they have every attacking record in the book. You’re passing up on a share of 100 goals (98 if you factor in Laporte)

Spurs settled?
Trippier gone, Rose/Alderwiereld/Aurier/Eriksson all potentially going

Ooohhh matron

Careful now

Get a grip. This is a family site.

Mata probably becomes Fernandes in that formation.

Relax and watch pre season. Villa tomo free on YouTube 11pm via Minnesota United channel
