Bit of tinkering to go yet.
Thought process here is that Rooney and Walcott can make way for Aguero and Sanchez is necessary. Depay on my bench in that, but he will be a starter for me.
Newcastle have a very tough start, I'd be wary of picking Mitrovic. Other than that looks a very strong squad.0 -

Goalkeepers:
Weakest link in the team, I think. Need to have cheap options to accommodate my outfield players. Butland and Krul have good opening fixtures between them. Can anyone show me a link for the clubs home and away pattern please?
Defenders:
Think Shaw is gonna have a huge season. Guaranteed starter for the first game of the season against Spurs - “I think I shall play [Luke] Shaw with [Matteo] Darmian, and with Daley Blind. The right central position I have to consider'' [Van Gaal]. With Schneiderlin ahead of the defense this season, one would expect a lot more clean sheets for Man United. Also an attacking threat. Chose Bellerin because Wenger has said he is the first choice RB at the moment. Arsenal should be a lot more solid with Cech as their new goalkeeper. Has a goal or two to his game also, which I like. Final defender is Lescott, simply because he is in a Tony Pulis team. Would I be mad in thinking if West Brom keep a clean sheet, Lescott would be most likely to get the most bonus points out of the West Brom defenders?
Midfielders:
Toss up between Fabregas and Hazard. Picked Fabregas because he is renowned for having a great start to every season. Also because if I chose Hazard it would have been Cabaye/Ming instead of Sterling/Lescott. Depay has been playing very well in preseason and will be taking a lot of set pieces, not to mention he will play behind Rooney a lot (according to Van Gaal). Sterling is a guaranteed starter in my eyes. I think playing with Silva and Aguero will improve his game massively. Also he will not have the same level of defensive duties as he had with Liverpool. Walcott is a goal machine if he can stay fit. With Sanchez out of the first GW, he should start. If it doesn't work out for him, I will get Ozil in.
Forwards:
Rooney has to be in any team I think. Sole striker for Man United, capable of scoring 20+ goals this season. Spurs have some nice games over the first few weeks (bar Man United away) so I went with Kane. He isn't a one season wonder in my opinion. His movement is exceptional, clinical in the box and is Spurs only hope of pushing for Top 4 this season. Could of had a hat-trick last night agaisnt the MLS All-Stars if it wasn't for some fantastic saves by the goalkeeper. West Ham played some attractive football last season and Sakho is a decent option, but I am worried about him. Can't think of a better option for his price. Also doesn't have a high ownership so shouldn't be worried about a price drop.
Bench:
O'Shea should start. Anya should start. S.Taylor is the cheap option, fingers crossed he will start.
My Concerns:
No Hazard or Liverpool coverage. Very worried about Sakho.
Appreciate any opinions or criticism! Thanks.0 -

Butland and Ruddy rotate nicely early on for the same price.0 -

This is what I have so far. 2million in the bank to upgrade Costa to Aguero when the time comes. I doubled up on Arsenal defense as I can see clean sheets in four of their first five games. Other than that I tried to make the team as balanced as possible. Not happy with having Deeney in the team but that's the cost when Hazard and Aguero take up a quarter of your overall budget. Opinions welcome.

Would be grateful for obs on the above. I normally play 3-4-3 or sometimes 3-5-2
Goalkeepers: Not sure to go for De Gea or Cech - I keep one goalie all season and don't switch.
Defenders: Will play Meter and Azpil every week and both should pick up a good few clean sheets and bonus points and maybe even a few goals. But I am a bit torn between O'Shea and S. Taylor. Might just switch between O'Shea and S. Taylor depending on who is at home. Pudil is just a cheap reserve.
Mid: Torn between going for Hazard or Fabregas. With Fabregas I can stick in four decent mids IMO but with Haz I can only afford three. I would like to have Silva or Sterling but I think Man City have a hard opening few games. And I think Arsenal's opening run is okay. And with Cech in goal I think Arsenal will improve defensively which will result in more points for their midfielders.
Not sure to keep Mata or not, perhaps Depay is a better choice?
Yanayama is just a cheap midfielder who gets game time - will usually be just a sub. Not sure to keep him or switch with someone else.
Forwards: Rooney, I think Utd's opening games are not too bad so thought I'd see how he goes. Costa, well Costa is Costa, will score goes but maybe hamstrung. If not starting might switch him for Kane. Would like to bring in Aguero when he is playing and would have to sell Rooney or Costa for him.
Deeney - cheap forward who might be brilliant or who might not be. But surely will get 10 goals.0 -

I'd go for Courtois over Cech. Gives you Chelsea coverage at the back.0 -

Nice balanced team. I think I would look at going for Hendo/Milner over Ramsey, and using the extra 1.5 to upgrade Deeney.0 -
