Opening weekend name your expected line-up

racso1975

3 days till the madness starts. Families torn apart. nearly salivating thinking about it!!!

Anyhow I thought it would be interesting to name the starting 11 you expect your clubs manager to put out and then your starting 11.

Corvo

Hmm...

Im going with:

---

De Gea

---

Rafael

---

Ferdinand

---

Vidic

---

Evra


Valencia

---

Carrick

---

Scholes

---

Young

---

Rooney

---

Welbeck

---

Scholes to have a howler. Welbeck to miss an open goal and a draw.




Edit - I'm sure having De Gea left of goal wont help

Red Crow

De Gea
Valencia Rio Vidic Evra
Nani Carrick Scholes Young
Kagawa
Rooney

I expect Cleverley and Rafael will be given an extra few days. DeGea should be all right.

Jones, Evans, Smalling and Fletcher all out.

Well being a Liverpool fan...

Doni
Johnson Skrtel Agger Doni

Lucas
Sahin Allen

Gerrard Messi Suarez

(Our year)

Realistically I would imagine the following.

Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique

Lucas
Gerrard Allen

Downing Suarez Borini

Krul

Simpson --- S Taylor --- Coloccini --- Santon

Tiote --- Cabaye --- Jonas

Ben Arfa* --- Cisse* --- Ba

Supposedly Ben Arfa and Cisse are doubts and if that's the case then I can see a 4-4-2 being employed.

Krul

Simpson --- S Taylor --- Coloccini --- Santon

Marveaux --- Tiote --- Cabaye --- Jonas

Ba --- Shola

Ideally I'd like the first formation. I don't think Shola can handle a full game.

-Suarez

Borini----Downing (<-floating->)

Wonder if Sahin might make an early start

Paully D

Mignolet

Cuellar O'Shea Kilgallon Richardson

Larsson Cattermole Colback McClean

Gardner

Sessegnon

We'll be lucky to have a shot on goal. Backs to the wall job for 90 minutes and hope to nick a point as we generally keep games against Arsenal pretty tight.

That said we could end up signing a couple of players (other than Saha) during the week and the line up might change, but at present the above is what I'd guess at. There's not many other options.

Does Guitirrez not get his game? I have him on my fantasy football team. Will have to remove him if thats the case

Everyone say nattin. He could be in your fantasy league......leave him off



(I presume the Jonas mentioned in both teams is Jonas Gutierrez)

G.K.

If Anita signs I would have thought he'd play ahead of Jonas in the 4-3-3.
