EPL Official Fantasy

Toure and Vertonghen :)

Toure's such a steal at 8, he's been in great pre-season form.

[elephants]

Toure and Torres for me!!

[elephants]

Which rotating 9mill keeper combo is the best??

Thinking of going with this tactic again now :P

[elephants]

Best Defender for 5.0? In terms of fixture as well?

Already have Vlaar and Shawcross.

I think Hangeland is your best bet. Is  absolutely nailed on, keeps a nice number of clean sheets and is a decent aerial threat :)

Haha well considering stats are the whole backbone of the game I don't see how I couldn't come back at you with stats ;)

But yes I do agree that transfers are always iffy cos you don't know how they will settle at a new club, but in Pienaar's case it is different. He is going back to a club he had been at for years, plus also spent the last half of the previous season at so there is no acclimatisation needed for his part. I would say Michu is the biggest risk since he is in a new league, but watching him in Spain last season he is class and so I reckon he will fit in well with how Swansea play.

Again thanks for the advice, if you want any help with your team let me know :)

Yeah true points.

I would like to ask if
a) De Gea v Cech
b) Lukaku's position in the WBA team.
c) Walters v other alternatives.

Cheers.

A - DeGea has the nasty tendency to get dropped for Lingaard if he's not performing. At Chelsea we haven't really got that luxury. I think both players will score similarly but for that half a million extra Cech has perfect JS.

B - I think he'll do well but not from the outset. He will need at least a month to get familiar with the Brom gameplan and to adjust to the new players around him. I am not ballsy enough personally but it's a very nice risk, especially as a Chelsea supporter!!

C - I would prefer Michu, Pienaar or Ramires over Walters like previously mentioned :)

D.Cisse over Graham!

Hazard + Tevez
vs
Ramires + Aguero??

Ramires and Aguero for the proven performers.

Hazard and Tevez for the high risk, high reward.

Your choice... :)

Baines is too over priced for me.  He can get some nice numbers, but I wouldn't pay that price for him.  Only big player I would consider (and currently own) is Kompany.  I'm personally taking a risk on Rio Ferdinand.  If he can stay fit he will be a bargain.

Hazard is an interesting one.  I have started with him, but it could also be a good idea to see how he starts and trade him in later.  I have faith that he can start well.  My midfield is currently quite strong with Hazard, Ramires, Toure and Bale so I'm happy to have Hazard there because if he does start slowly the other three are known quality and can carry him until he hits form, which he will do at some stage.

Your strikers do look thin, but if you play 4-5-1 then that won't be an issue as Holt is good cover.  Even if you downgrade a player or two the strikers up to the 8.5 mark are quite thin.  I've gone with Lambert myself, but that's a risk I'm willing to take.  I think he'll have a decent season without being immense, but he is only playing second fiddle to Aguero.  I'll probably play 4-5-1 or 3-5-2.

Cheers Chelsekiman! Ive gone Kagawa to Ramires, I rate Baines more than others, so Im keeping him, which leaves me with 8.5 and this team

Krul (Federici)
Baines,Lescott,Williams (Barnett,Clyne)
Ramires,Bale,Hazard,Toure (Gunthrie)
Aguero,______,Pogrebynak

Is Podolski worth looking at?

Darren Bent for a nice differential/unique??

Which one?


Vermaelen

Lescott + 0.5

Zabaleta + 1.0


Cheers  :)

Lescott for me, although a lot of love has been shown for Zabaleta by Mancini when he plays three at the back..? Lescott for me though.

[elephants]

Okay I've done what I can to help, now can I have  hand lads?

One of - Rangel, Shawcross, Colocinni, S. Taylor 

Best midfield due that is equal to or less than 18.5 mill? Already have Bale, Yaya and Guthrie.

Thanks boys, much appreciated. ;D

Hey ele, Id go with ShawX :)

Also, maybe Hazard and Valencia?

Does Vermaelen need to be in my team because  of his goal threat? Ive currently got Baines,  but whihc one will net more for the season?

[CrowsFan]

Baines a much better threat. Takes free kicks plus gets up the field down the wing and puts in crosses so plenty of assists on offer for him

Without a lot of knowledge..S Taylor and perhaps Vandervaart / Dempsey in mid

[elephants]

Cheers lads, I'm currently rolling with Santi Carzola and Hazard. Not sold on Uniteds midfield yet, would like to see what they roll out with for the first few weeks :)

Currently have ShawX too :)

I think Banies over Verm KK :)

[Adamant]

Is everyone off the Pog now?

[KoopKicka]

Is everyone off the Pog now?

He injured or something? Its gonna be tough to find areplacement if he is.

[chrisuzz]

DeGea
Coloccini, Shawcross, Vertoghen (Fabio, Fox)
Toure, Bale, Silva, Sinclair (Guthrie)
Rooney, Holt, Pogrenbank

This is for fox sports btw...

But could someone please rate this team.. same scoring sytem

[Adamant]

Better options in Lukaku, Petric and Graham have popped up now. He hasn't ever been overly prolific which is why his goal scoring record last season was so surprising...

[Tominator]

Best Defender for 5.0? In terms of fixture as well?

Already have Vlaar and Shawcross.

I've already got Shawcross. Vlaar is a possibility, although I haven't read enough about him to trust him.. yet.
Do you like any other options, maybe the ones i mentioned?

Danny Simpson and Coloccini (both from Newcastle) are both 5.0
