    you just say take a defender out and put a mid/striker in and it updates

    Just take out 1 defender or 1 mid or 1 forward and it changes automtically.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    What do people make of this team? I've £1m in the bank to switch in Rooney for Aguero in week 2. Decided to try a different tactic this year and spend big on my attack to the obvious detriment of my defense/gk.

    Personally I'd go for Simpson or Coloccini if you're planning to have any defenders from Newcastle in your team. Same price as Santon too. Santon does provide more of a threat going forward though tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 163 ✭✭DarrenCroker


    My team,
    Goalkeeper-Vorm
    Defenders-Kompany Vermaelen Clichy
    Midfielders-Sinclair Santi-Cazorla Larsson Wright-phillips
    Forwards-Crouch Podolski Aguero

    Bench- Foster Hutton Taylor Whitehead


    Whats do people think? Might have to take cazorla out if he isn't fit to play.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭Dues Bellator


    My starting line-up for the weekend is...

    Foster
    Lescott, shawcross, clichy, Simpson.
    Whitehead, Sinclair, Gutierrez.
    RVP, Rooney, Aguero.


    Midfield looks a bit light who do you have a subs , personally i would just choose one between RVP and Rooney and invest the extra funds in a solid midfielder .

    I went for RVP over Rooney myself .also Kolarov might be a better option over Glichy as in preseason he started in midfield to fall in with the new formation Mancini is using .

    these are just opinions :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,957 ✭✭✭Dots1982


    My team is:

    Schwarzer

    Tomkins
    Dawson
    Harte
    Lescott

    Valencia
    Lennon
    Yaya

    Torres
    Aguero
    Bent

    Subs:
    Jaaskelainen
    Clark
    Britton
    Pienaar

    Not really sure about that team, what do people think of Lennon for 7million. A lot of people talking up Cleverly but not sure he'll play all that much especially with his injury record. I've gone with Bent ahead of Jelavic again this could be a mistake. Hazard, Carzola, Tevez, Bertrand, michu, Cisse are other marginal calls.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,137 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Opinions on my team please:

    Szczesny
    A.Cole, A. Williams, Coloccini, Kaboul
    Yaya Toure, Santi Cazorla, Dembele
    Rooney, Tevez, Defoe

    Subs: Joe Allen, S. Larsson, Cuellar, Ruddy

    here is my effort - with 3.5m left in the bank for improvements.

    If you've 3.5 million left, I'd personally take Walters out and stick somebody like Silva in. Home V Southampton. If Chelsea weren't playing twice in Gameweek 1, I'd have certainly made him captain for sure in my team.

    Silva a doubt to play first game of season. I'd say 2-3m of the left over is to get Roo/RVP week 2 at a guess. The only thing his team needs is Evra to Vidic IMHO. And McCartney to Demel on the bench


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭Dues Bellator


    Kagawa , is he going to start the opening few games , will RvP get injured in the first game . who the hell do i pick as cpt ,just some of the questions i will be loosing sleep over during the next 10 months . bring it on can't wait .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,844 ✭✭✭carlcon


    Gameweek 1 captain poll has been up for a few days, for those of you wondering who the majority are going with: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056727772

    It's a landslide, but I know plenty of people who like to go against the grain, so there are still plenty of options!

    After a complete overhaul of the team I threw together yesterday,

    87b54.png

    This is what I've got at the moment. (Only kept 3 of the players I had yesterday!)

    Wasn't sure whether I'd go for Yaya Touré and 0.5 in the bank or Kagawa... City vs. Southampton is more promising than United vs. Everton for this week, but Kagawa's been looking sharp and he'll probably come out all guns blazing.. Lets hope! Also unsure about Nicky Shorey, but hopefully between his two games he'll score more points than Taylor and Simpson (subs).

    Any suggestions?!

    Shorey is unlikely to start, Harte has been keeping him out in preseason

    Does anyone know which strikers are most likely to start for Sunderland?

    Anyone know if Joe Cole will play for Liverpool? He could be a bargain for £6m if he starts scoring again.

    Very unlikely to start, more likely for Europa and early rounds of cups.

    Swap Enrique to Zabaleta and Silva to Mata and you'd have a much better team IMO .

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,449 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    For me, you have too much invested in defence, your midfield is week, very if im honest. No experienced midfielder in there, although look what Silva done last year. Kag will unlikely play in the hole now with RVP having signed. Chelsea have about 8-10 midfielders, who knows what way they will line up.

    Personally I think its a waste of time using reading players just cause they have a double game week. Cant see them getting anything from the 2 games and you will probbaly end up transfering them out anyway soon enough

    this is what i don't miss about FF the night before the first Gw , i'm going to have to go back and tweak it, i will keep Pogrebnyak , i can see him knocking at least one in two games :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,833 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    @Sgt Pepper 64

    Ivanovic likely to play both games in your book?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,449 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    Also you will have 5 guys not playing GW3

    He could use luiz at RB and give Cahill a run at CB, highly unlikely though.

    Yep, we have no cover and if we do sign Cesar, I can only see him on the bench


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭TheRedDevil10


    Would love an opinion on this team

    ----Szczesny
    Walker-Vidic-Coloccini
    Pienaar-Sigurdsson-Allen-Ireland-Kagawa
    Rooney-Torres

    Subs:Given, Clark, J. O'Brien, C. Cole

    Mata will be rested for a few games coming up - RDM (although he will start sunday)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Mata will be rested for a few games coming up - RDM (although he will start sunday)

    I read that as meaning a few games over the course of the season. Or am I completely wrong? Don't really want him in there if he's only going to play one game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,142 ✭✭✭ciano1


    Here's what I've settled on for tomorrow!

    I did, still tweaking this year's team to be unveiled later:):) i.e 11.30am. Banking on Chelsea for the 1st gameweek.

    Ah those late night last minute fantasy football jitters. My dilemma: Podolski or Tevez?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,076 ✭✭✭Eathrin


    Did Mata and Cazorla play for Spain the other day? I don't want players that are going to be rested now.

    Mata didn't travel. Cazorla played and scored.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,379 ✭✭✭✭Oat23


    I decided to enter late. I'll make sure I do my team each gameweek :)

    Any advice accepted. I think Petric could have a good day tomorrow against Norwich.

    217499.png


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Change Neville for Noble.

    Drop one of Evra or Vidic. Get Zabaleta or Lescott in.

    I wouldn't fancy Mertesacker in there. Coloccini or Hangeland would be better options for me.

    I'd get rid of Friedel for another keeper.

    Rest seems alright.

    After switching Kagawa and Giroud for De Guzman/Dembele and Aguero, changing back again yesterday, I nearly switched to Yaya and Papa Cisse there. I need to stop :(

    My team. My main concern is Silva - will he play?
    my thinking is more long term than short term.
    City will strong, so Silva and Aquergo.
    I expect to have Torres for the DBL game week only


    Krul

    Evra - Simpson - Clichy

    Allen - Ramires - Silva - Walters - Dyer

    Aguero - Torres

    Bench: Foster GK

    Williams (swansea)
    Morison (Norwich)
    Shawcross
