    Pogba or Mkhitaryan?

    Miki has potential to get more goals and assists, but ultimately Pogba starts every game and doesn't get subbed off. Operating higher up the pitch should surely see a better return for Pogba than last year.

    Miki meanwhile could end up getting subbed off around 70 mins in the games he does start. Far more likely to be rotated too, with Mata and Lingard vying for that place.

    Itchy Nachos is seriously tempting. Would free up a bit of cash too.

    Ritchie/Nacho or Firmino/RLC?

    The problem I have with pogba is you are hoping for two things to change. Utd to score a good few more goals than they have in the 4 years since Ferguson stepped down. From memory the highest is 64 in the Moyes season. You are also hoping that pogba can show he can add more goals to his game. Atleast with mkhitaryan he is more of a proven goalscorer granted there are rotation issues. Assuming you are going with lukaku who a lot are going to captain I think that's enough eggs in the utd attacking basket starting off. If things look like they might change from an attacking perspective I'll consider a mid in a couple of weeks .

    I just had eureka moment about not having Aguero in my team. He is going to start and Man City are going to smash goals in aren't they?

    I already have Jesus in my forward line as City coverage but Aguero is Aguero.

    So Im thinking of changing KDB/Firmino to Zaha/Aguero - thoughts?

    What are people's thoughts on Iwobi??? Is he likely to start tomorrow? How was his preseason. I'm just getting back into everything today

    Added an extra bit for you there in case you were thinking you could fool us. ;)

    I'm thinking about it moreand more now and I think going for salad over Pogba may be more prudent even if it is an extra million.
    Will give me more options to downgrade to. 8ml is an awkward price .
    And there are a LOT of pool supporters in my main league ..........

    How essential is United defence? I've gone back to Foster from DDG and have gone off the idea of Jones.

    Based on fixtures I'd say pretty essential imo.

    Pretty essential I think. But the problem is that all the safe bets - DDG, Bailly, Valencia - are a tad pricey. Jones @5m is tempting but it's Phil Jones - pretty much guaranteed to end in disaster

    I had this choice and ultimately decided to risk Miki. Yes Pogba will start every game but he's brutal, has done literally nothing last season. Miki has the potential

    There doesn't seem to be much talk of Iheanacho in here, I know he went off injured last week but was back in training this week, at 7.0 he seems a bargain, although I guess he could either play out of position or will be rotated with Slimani and Okazaki

    If he is not injured then hes goes straight into the team,is there any update on him?
    Was bench fodder is everyone going with?Is there a 4.mill defender guareented minutes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭patmac


    I'm close have a choice between
    a)Mane/Tadic/Jesus/Lacazette
    B)KDB/Gross/Kane/Firmino
    Any thoughts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Absolutely B

    B
    Although I'm personally not mad on firmino
    He could be a reverse OOP striker !

    Is Monreal a definite starter for Arsenal?

    Not
    It's even possible that Milner will start RB this weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭patmac


    Actually I have nailed it down to
    A)Lacazette/Jesus
    Vs
    B)Kane/Firmino
    Interestingly A is rated higher on FFS


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,703 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Thoughts on the below?

    KDB, Iwobi and Monreal or
    Sane, Redmond and Bailly

    I'd go B but maybe thats because I have both already!

    Shakespeare said a few days back that he is going to ease Iheanacho in over the first month or so. I think he'll be on the bench a good bit to start off with.
