    Just worked out this 5 man defense

    Ward - Play most weeks. learnt from last season not to bench him
    Huth - Great fixtures and only 1 game id bench him for in the first 10
    Davies/Shackell rotation - Always have one to play with an easy fixture
    4.5 defender - Colocinni/Simpson/Vlaar/Oshea -- to cover for injuries to any of the above and Huth for his tough games

    Considerin there are more goals than CS's early in the season and money becomes a no issue later i may go with this now and spend on my defense around GW 10 or so when hopefully my attackers will have made me a richer by 10 million or so 🙂

        Hey TFF! Good to see you around, did you play the WC fantasy games? I took the summer off 😀

        Def considering Jelavic, those fixtures are great and Hull have really strengthened over the summer. Good shout, saves me a million - but might just get Nolan over Arnautovic....the fact that he plays for Stoke puts me off already. I know people raving over their fixtures...but they arent the most prolific team. Rather have a defender for that run.

          I did take part in the FFS WC, but our team got knocked out early 🙁

          Jelavic looks very tasty indeed 😀
          Arnie did fairly well in the second half of the previous season, hence the bandwagon 😀

    Initially I was quite happy at Sanchez being a midfielder, now not so much. Too many Arsenal midfielders and I feel like I want them all.
    FPL has been very clever with its prices this season.

    RMT

    Mannone (Krul)
    Baines, Azpi, Debuchy, Chambers (Cameron)
    Sanchez, Hazard, Ramsey, Nasri, Eriksen
    Giroud (Zamora, Wood)

    Packing the midfield!

    Is it crazy to play one up top with 2 doubtful Forward subs? Having 4.5 defender at least allows 1 certain starter for back up.

    Never gone 4-5-1 before but so many tempting Mids and not many tempting Forwards. Initially got rid of Sanchez for risk factor, but his goal record is practically 1 in 2 so I guess he is my second striker.

    Insanely impatient for Costa price!

      Could go Ramsey for Mata/Silva for those worried about Arsenal over reliance
