    "Armstrong was offered excellent support in attack by Che Adams. The Scottish international chipped in with 16 goals, the sixth-highest scorer in the Championship..."

    ... before going on to be easily the worst player on display at the entire Euros, it wasn't even close.

    Aye, I think I'll try and make do without Armstrong, Adams or anybody else in the Southampton forward line unless they sign Kane and he's priced at 4m.

    Enjoyed the article, though, appreciate the effort that goes into them.

      Armstrong needs to step up and prove he can do it in the Prem for sure but I'm optimistic he'll be better this time. If he does then an interesting option at 5.5. Personally I've gone for Muniz at 6m and will wait and see (trying to avoid any fan bias)

      Don't need to worry about Che Adams, he's left.

                I'm going 3,4,3. Always start like that anyway. Looks weird and uncomfortable starting with a different lineup. So yeah, the Muniz way. But I'm starting both DCL and ESR.

                FYI I'm going against all the pundits and starting Haaland, Salah and Palmer.

    With new rules in BPS system, I don't see a point investing in defense, so will probably go cheap at the back. Haaland and Rogers may become Watkins and Foden after couple of GWs.Opinions on this draft:

    CHE gk NFO gk (whoever will be No.1)
    Pau Andersen Neco Myko 4.0
    Salah Saka Nkunku Kulusevski Rogers

    Martinelli is the only concern. Can become Eze but I want an Arsenal attacker for the first 3. Attack is sorted and defensive rotation is a treat.

      Maybe you have, but it's an unknown. The best you can do is best guess 'who will do well' from the start.

      I don't like the built-in transfers from the off. You're creating a team for 2 gw's, whereas if you're wcíng gw 6, then you should base your tean on those 6 gw's and use transfers for the unexpected no-shows, injuries, etc.
