everyone that posts a RMT should try to rate at least 2-3 other teams

I like it TexanRed. Keep a close eye on Cameron in case he's not first choice. I've seen a few say they think he may be a risk.

Check Krul/Foster rotation against yours

Luis is a risk

Cameron is a risk and supposedly has. 9 clubs after him

Midfield looks great

Giroud is iffy to me. Not sharp at the moment and really don't like his early fixtures.

Understand you're going with a cheap. 3rd striker but Nuget has the worst fixtures in the opening weeks and you don't want to have to worry your third striker is hurting your team value early doors

I really like this team, although you will not have any cover for Shaw or Luis if they have difficult fixtures. But being attacking defenders perhaps this won't be of concern....

I have the same pairing of Cameron and Taylor. At the moment I'm holding tight on them but appreciate I may have to upgrade by downgrading one of my mids if they do not start. Haz > Fab is something to consider on the off chance...

As I said though, I like it!

I really like it. I won't nick your team though 🙂 Dzeko probably the one towatch in a few weeks when their other strikers are all fit.

4 of your defenders have bad week 1 fixtures and good ones in week 2. Look to Hull & QPR to level that off a bit. Just saying I would want at least two of my defenders to have decent looking fixtures in any given game week, if not 3.

Defence needs beefing up but not sure who you should sacrifice!

I like the team generally though. Good stuff

Looks to be some really good teams about tonight with a few different in each.
I like a lot of them including yours.

Looks like you'll have to play Bojan every week but that's the cost of having both Rooney and Costa.
Maybe downgrade defence a bit and get a better striker than Bojan
Other than that looks solid to me 🙂

Solid team mate, any criticisms would be minor and would be a matter of opinion, like 'are you sure Debuchy is the right way to go....'

Except maybe the choice of Foster as your main keeper 🙂

It looks as if Bojan is playing in the 'hole' so not an out and out striker. Maybe Agbonlar for Bojan? I think Siggy's first game is tough ... maybe bring in Johnson for gw 1?

Mata & Rooney are a must ... I'd even think about Evans for Debuchy tbh

no mata? 😯

8 Can you afford Rooney in there as well Thomass?

7

6 – Too many players that are new in their clubs for my taste

Will you play 4-3-3 sometimes?

Needs Rooney ideally. Bang in form and has great fixtures.

I would probably sacrifice Ramsey to upgrade Ade, or just do a straight swap with Costa

I like it.

I don't rate Ferdinand even at that price...he has no goals/assists in him.
Not sold on hendo either...maybe puncheon or snoddy?

Otherwise good team. 8/10

My three thoughts are :

Would like the D better if you could upgrade to Caulker & Ward

If you have Siggy and Hendo in midfield, will you want to play. 4-3-3 sometimes and how will you do it with that defense

If a mid-priced midfielder emerges that you want to get, where is the money coming from to buy them without sacrificing one of your premium mids ?

Going without an Arsenal mid is brave!
Marriapa and Wisdom not nailed on.
Rest looks good to me 🙂

You need a second striker that is nailed on. I wouldn't want to start with a single decent striker, even if it affords that midfield. Downgrade one of Terry or Cahill to Naylor (rotates with Stk well) and upgrade Murray.

It looks tempting but you lack flexibility to get a second striker in if they start performing.

I wouldn't say suicide with the first few fixtures, but would take a brave man to risk the potential of losing early ground against the masses of people who will have at least one of them. Could be genius though!

No

With Mata and Hazard pretty much essential it sucks up a lot of cash that should be being used to buy them.

I like keeper rotation better than Mannone.
I don't think Cameron is likely to start.
I don't like Eriksen as a pick as I think Lamela could take points off of him.

I think you are too heavy on midfield, I would downgrade at least one of them to spread the wealth.

I'd like the problem of Siggy or Austin every week.

Yep it's a nice team. Its the difference between hazard+austin or costa+albrighton

It will be luck which is best

I might copy that team 😀
Mariappa not nailed on. Nothing else looks wrong with it

Very solid. Defence rotates well so can't really complain. Not entirely sold on Eriksen yet and I'm not convinced he will prove to be good value at 8m. Strikers are very good.

Begovic + Huth is a lot of money on Stoke's defence, especially when they are away to the top teams. I would prefer to get a Chelsea defender in their somewhere.

I like the Bojan risk, but coupled with a 4.5 could earn you an early wildcard or points hit if you find the more expensive strikers firing.

That front line wounds my soul

Defence are all nailed on which is good, how do they rotate?
Is Brady in the starting 11 for Hull?
A few captain options which is good.

You could miss out on Mata's points but fitting him in would be tricky!

I take it you are a Villa fan?

Now that WBA have signed Gamboa, might be worth reconsidering Wisdom. Other than that it looks damn fine to me.

Not bad. but still not sure about Wisdom now that Gamboa's got a work permit. And the sub's bench is weak. I'd downgrade Hazard.

Is Cameron likely to start? Even if he is, are you confident doubling up on Stoke's defence under Hughes?

Not sure how your GKs and defenders rotate and work together beneficially based on fixtures

For 9.5 on GK, I expect to see Speroni/Green or a 5.5 starter with a 4.0 backup

Defense... Think about fixtures. There are international breaks after weeks 3, 7 and 11, how will your group be faring at those break points?

Quite expensive at the back and a lack of captain options could hurt you -- not that it really matters with Rooney and his first 6 fixtures. Might still be worth considering if Kolarov and Evans are worth the extra investment over a mid upgrade.

As far as punts go, Jovetic is a good one.

Fun team. See you on here a fair bit so know you've thought about Davies and Jovetic and Mariappa. Hope it does you proud .

This is almost the same as mine (I've gone with Costa/Sanchez/cheap def over Giroud/Hazard/Cahill). I don't think either are better, though. I'm just not convinced on Giroud's fitness.

Only main watchout: Dummett. Newcastle fan here and I can tell you almost categorically that Haidara will start over Dummett.

I would switch NTaylor to someone with a better week 1 fixture so you can bench Clyne week 1

Interesting pick in JWP, good risk for 5.0 imo.

Only issues I see are Eriksen (Lamela stealing his points maybe?) and the match fitness of Giroud for the new season.

I think the 6.0m attackers have a lot more potential than bojan. I'd find that extra 0.5m from the defence

Agbonlahor is not good enough for a starting striker spot for me, especially without a strong bench.

Going Krul every week is bold, as is hooveild who's probably behind even yoshida after his awful performances last season when given a chance. Then not sure about AJ or gabby (think weimann's a better pick).
What I'd do is Sanchez>Ramsey free up cash, upgrade Given to 4.5 with decent rotation, upgrade hooveid to 4.5 with decent rotation potentially rosenior/mariappa. Then in midfield id say AJ to arny or upgrade to DeJong

Nice team. The Jovetic/Dzeko headache just reminds me of Negredo/Dzeko headache at the start of last season. If you get it right it could result in big points, but I would never be confident enough to commit to one myself!

Wisdom seems ok for 4m

Team looks v good. Personally have cahill over terry as imo most nailed chelsea starter. No idea about Waslieski but also if upgrading to a 6 mil striker id get long over austin, qpr will struggle for goals

To quote a fellow manager "Isn't that new bloke Gamboa going to affect Wisdom's pitch time?"

Would downgrade one of DDG, Costa or Rooney and upgrade Odemwingie. Even if you get the player pick wrong, you're probably going to want some midfielder in the 7 to 8.5 price range at some point early in the season

Doesn't the fact that you'll have to play Odemwingie or Alrbrighton every week worry you? Too weak defence to account for such an underwhelming mid.

really don't like your keepers, yes newcastle have decent fixtures but their defence is ropey at best.
Don't see the point in having a front 8 benching headache either.
Id drop one of fab mata and sort defence out

I'd try and get some more cash into that back line - looks horrible. Benching issues with the front 8?

JWP to Marney, Fletcher to Austin or Wickham, and I think you're done

7.

Not too sure on both Davies and Cameron, as you could get stuck.
Not too sure on Fletcher's gametime. Nor on his value.
No Arsenal attacking cover, they usually start well

Studge Erikson for alexi and giroud

It's not bad at all, but I think I would downgrade Young and upgrade the keeper pairing, or Fab to Hazard. Not too keen on Pelle either tbh. But it looks quite well balanced for a Sanchez + Yaya team

The whole team, or a combination of players

You could add all of your players to your watchlist and then sort by % selected by.
