Thought I might have a crack finished 315k last year which was my 1st crack at it


     
De Gea, ( Krul )

Lovren, Debuchy, Ferdinand (  Targett, Bruce )

Sigurdsson, Eriksen, Mata, F

gonna need more players than that  :P

Sanchez + Arno vs Eriksen + Silva/Ramsey?

Second forward is driving me crazy, don't want Costa since have hazard but there's not another great option. Maybe Jovetic while aguero is out or adebayor but don't rate giroud/dzeko to start. So many issues!

why would you consider Jovetic but not rate Dzeko? Negredo is injured. Dzeko is a great option and is locked in my team

Sorry the word "to start" was bad. I meant to start in my team, not start for city.  He will start. He has just been looking very average in these friendless and with Jovetic scoring 5 goals already, I can see aguero coming back gw3 and forcing a dzeko/Jovetic rotation. If Dzeko fires obviously he's safe but I don't want to have to take a risk.
I've dropped hazard to a 9.0 for now and got Costa but I'm not too happy with my backline or keepers (mannone giving me headaches)

De Gea (Krul)
Chester, Fillipe  Luis, Vertonghen, Debuchy (Janmaat)
Lamela, Nasri, Barkley (Sigurdsson, de Jong)
Fletcher, Rooney, Diego Costa.

Not 100% yet but getting close. Keenly awaiting transfer news on Vermaelen but Arsenal don't want ManU to get him.

Dat 5-3-2 tho.

I'm guessing you'll be playing 3-5-2 with that team.
I like your mid choices.  Still not sold on Barkley but will score well.

would depend on weekly fixture as to the formation I think I've got great flexibility with this squad to do many things from week to week. First week would be as above for 4-3-3 but generally will be a 4-4-2 as fixtures will likely give 1 of my mids a tough week. Hopefully this affords me luxury of minimal -4 trades early on and even ability to hold my wildcard until later in the season. Well, that's the plan anyway.

I wouldn't pay much attention to pre season form for established players. They are all on differrent fitness programs and indivually being managed. Ageuro works better along side another striker. City won't play Ageuro up top on his own very often

3-5-2/3-4-3 rotation is def the go. also there needs to be a h2h league.

Bad. H2H would be cool

the changes to the bonus point system apparently helps defenders so 4 defenders is not a bad option given they are generally cheaper
