    Draft is live
    Don't think I'll be doing it

    We've done one amongst mates the last two seasons through whatsapp, most of whom would never keep an interest in the main game. It's great craic :D

    I still have my auto-pick team and haven't dabbled in tinkering at all yet.

    I think I broke myself over the summer :eek:

    We can't think of him as Joe Hart - Man City anymore. He now has a West Ham defence in front of him and is unlikely to score much more than Adrian would have.

    A back line of zabaleta Reid ogbonna and cresswell doesn't look as bad this year

    God damn Willian goal again

    I swore I'd never go back

    And it makes fabregas even more of a rotation risk now
    Pogba /miki
    Willian /fab

    So hard to choose

    Willian decent value for 7 for the start with Haz out. Is he lw or rw?

    Mendy is a spanner in the works now

    City taking the piss with Walker, Mendy and Danilo as their fullbacks.

    Mendy's crosses are absolutely brilliant. Him and Sane will be a force this season. If he comes in at 6 I'd consider it

    Charlie Austin brace. At 6.5, and those opening fixtures. Very tempting.

    Any updates on a possible 4m starter in defense? I see Rangel is leading the way in picks but surely Naughton starts ahead of him

    Hopefully Kevin Long gets a place at Burnley.

    Opinions on the best 5-6 million option in Midfield?

    Iwobi, Ox, Walters, JWP?

    I think he's about the only hope. I don't expect there will be one this year.

    I'm happy enough with a non playing 4.0 till first Wildcard anyhow. Just need to pick a guy who won't lose value.

    Stay well away from Rangel folks. He'll be 3.9 by GW3.

    I'm going with a strong, premium back 5 strategy this season (this will change as the season progresses and the attacking big guns settle down).

    Hennessy (4mil GK)

    Alonso Milner Walker Bertrand Dawson

    Coutinho Salah Klaasen (5mil mid) (4.5mil)

    Aguero Morata (4.5mil)

    Last season a rival (casual) went with this strategy for the whole season. Ultimately long term it didn't finish well but for 1st half of season he built up a considerably lead.

    Has anyone considered this strategy?
